AN: I really hope this story doesn't fail and flop like all my other ones I have written. *sigh* Well, here goes.

Of course I do not own the Kane Chronicles. If I did, this would not be posted on this site and the books would have sold like one copy...


Sadie

"Thank you, keep the change." I said to the driver as I got out of the taxi. I was feeling quite generous today and lightheaded. Well, what do you expect when a five thousand year old god whom you have had a crush on since day one asked you to meet him at you local graveyard?

Well what do you expect? Of course you'd be slightly dazed.

Anyway, back to the present reality. So, I was at the Brooklyn graveyard which was around a mile away from our Brooklyn house, the twenty-first nome.

About to meet Anubis.

Although I was slightly confused about my feelings about Walt and Anubis, well, I was very confused actually. Go on and think about whatever you want, but I was sort of enjoying both of their company.

I pushed open the gate which was full of this weird fuzzy vine like stuff which sort of covered the whole thing like a mosquito net. Wiping my hand on my linen shirt I wore under my leather jacket, I looked around for a sad mopey hot sexy teenage figure standing somewhere in the quiet depths of the place.

But I saw nothing. That was really weird 'cos most times when I meet Anubis, he scares the living daylights out of my bloody mind by turning up right behind me.

I walked towards a humongous oak tree right next to a small pond. Great, I can't believe this, I got stood up. I plunked down at the base of the oak tree, next to the pond.

"Stu-pid A-nu-bis!" I screamed as I ripped a leaf into halves, quarters and so on with every syllable I said. I threw all the pieces into the pond and stood up and stomped on the ground in frustration. I was so angry at Anubis I didn't even notice the water bubbling and slowly rising from the pond to form a shape of a beautiful woman.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid bluthering―"

"Sadie Kane." I stopped and turned to see a water-made woman staring at me. As far as I could guess, she was either a spirit or a goddess.

"I am Nephthys, the river goddess." Said the water-woman.

"Oh." The only time I had ever had any communication with Nephthys was when she told me that Zia was in a sleeping host. "So, what are you doing here in this miserable graveyard?" I queried.

"I'm here to tell you something about Anubis." Nephthys told me.

Now THAT got my attention. "So he sent you to deliver a message of sorrow on how he just couldn't make it to this graveyard to see me, ay?"

"No. Sadie, you have to calm down your emotions. Anubis is in trouble." Nephthys whispered holding up her hand showing Anubis's perfect face with terror and fear reflected in his melted chocolate eyes which made me die inside in an orb of fire.

"He has been trapped in the Duat by Apophis to trouble you, to confuse you." Nephthys closed her hand, making the orb of water disappear.

"How could this happen? No. No, no, no." I shook my head. What was with this world and the gods? Why were they torturing me?

"URRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!" I stomped around and kicked everything, threw rocks, ripped leaves, etc.

I know, I was on full on rage. But I didn't care. If the gods wanted to treat me this way, why couldn't I let my emotions out?

"Sadie Kane, if you go back to your Brooklyn house, have a little rest. Let yourself, relax." Nephthys sprayed me with fine mist and her form just dropped back down into the pond.


After I opened a portal and got back to the Brooklyn house when I was ready and sorted through what I had just been told, I ran upstairs to shut myself in my bedroom and mope.

"Sadie? What's wrong?" Carter asked as I whizzed past him.

"Sadie?" Walt asked when I ran past him. [Oh shut up Carter. If Zia were the one instead of Walt and you were me, that would be what you would do.] "Yes?" I stopped in my tracks and turned around. My insides bounced up and down as I saw that he was wearing a sleeveless tee, showing off his lovely arms. "Why were you running like you just saw Apophis?" Walt asked with a confused look on his face.

"I was, uh just going to my room." I smiled awkwardly and shuffled from feet to feet. "Um, okay then, see you around." Walt said and walked towards Carter. Urgghhh… Why does Walt have to side with Carter and tell him everything I say.

Well, just let the whole wide world know what's going on while I go to my room and sulk. Just all in a day's bad luck for me.


Well, what do you think? Please R&R!
