" And that concludes our tour!" Sadie Kane said brightly. "Any questions?"
"Can any Gods or Goddesses get in?" I asked curiously.
"No." Carter Kane explained. "Unless invited, of course." He replied.
Perfect. I thought. Now, maybe he'll finally stop following me. And for once, I'll finally be safe.
For the rest of the night, we ate lots of junk food on the terrace, watched Philip of Macedonia do flips in his pool, and Felix even let the new recruits pet the penguins he teleported from Antarctica! But the best part of that night, was that no one knew who I was, and nobody suspected who I was. However, I will admit that when Sadie's boyfriend (I think his name is Wayne, or something like that.) asked if he could talk to me, privately, I was shaking in my boots.
We walked back into the mansion, and as soon as I turned to face him, he said, "What are you doing here, Addi?
"Excuse me?" I said back to him as innocently as possible, "I don't even know who you are!"
"Please tell me you didn't come here and not take a peek into the duat first!" He said to me, a hint of disappointment in his voice.
"Of course I didn't!" I responded quickly. Who was this guy, how did he know my name, and why was he so interested in me? Could he sense my divine magic? "I haven't learned how." I continued. But as I said this I was looking into the duat, and what I saw, scared me half to death.
"Anubis!" I gasped.
He nodded his head, and muttered, "Took you long enough." Then, he asked me again, "What are you doing here?"
I took a deep breath, and at last, I told him. "I'm... Um...Running from someone." I said, choosing my words carefully, and trying to give him as little information as possible. But when I saw the look on his face, I knew that if I didn't tell him who I was running from, he would tell everyone who I really was. So, finally, I gave in.
"From Set." I said at last, while biting my lip, and regretting my decision.
When he didn't answer, I thought he was in shock, until he finally said, incredulously, "Wow Addithena." He continued, shaking his head. "What have you gotten yourself into."
