SON OF SOBEK – Continued….
SADIE
It was bad enough that my fool of a brother had told a complete stranger his name. But Carter couldn't stop at that. No, he had to go and give that Percy-boy a means of contacting and yes, even tracing us.
But no worries, I had already told Carter that we were having no more to do with this boy. Of course, Carter thinks he can recognize a monster from a weirdo Greek-boy, but I tell you, this 'chance' meeting has APOPHIS written all over it. In bold, glowing red letters.
Oh, sorry! I haven't yet introduced myself. I'm Sadie Kane, second-in-command at the twenty-first nome of the House of Life. I am the exiler of Apophis, the giant snake of chaos, and the protector of Ra.
And by the way, Ra, the great Sun god of Egyptian mythology (yes, it's real), king of all kings and God knows what else, is Carter's girlfriend, Zia Rashid. Seriously, no kidding!
[Carter, you can stop stomping my foot!]
All right, Zia isn't technically Ra, but she can host the spirit of the Sun god (more on that later). That's close enough for me. Carter is telling me to stop diverging (and I haven't missed the fact that he's totally red).
So, getting back on track, exiling monsters, hosting supreme Gods, vaporizing foul demons, all this is everyday Kane stuff, so if you want to hear this story out, be prepared!
