Chapter Two

We SET a table. SADIE

Hoi, its Sadie. Long time since the last time we ever voiced a recording eh. Well it doesn't matter to much, but I'll tell you what has happened since our last recording. We've grown to our magic very well, Carter is now 16 and is a freshman in the high school portion of BAG (Brooklyn academy for the gifted) while I am in my 8th grade of the middle school portion. Zia and Carter have been going on swell and so have I and Walty boy (aham getting a bit off topic) but so that is what has been going on. Back to the real story I suppose, we started to head back to the first Nome to rally up the magicians when Cleo said she may have found something of use for us. We followed her to the library where she pulled a scroll, "this is a scroll that tells the best idea we have of what other deity may be evil". She explained, I looked at the scroll, "Kek", I said "what kind of name is Kek"? Carter scowled at me, "He was originally the god of Darkness and chaos, he is the one causing this"? he asked Cleo. She shrugged "It is what I could find, perhaps you can visit another god and ask them about him". When she said that we were zipped away from where we were and taken to a dark place. "Carter where are we"? "You're with an old friend" said a voice in the dark, "Oh gods why now"? Carter complained. To our right a pillar of fire blazed to life, we both jumped back. And we saw a very memorable face. "Set". I said. To his left stood his wife Nephthys, she seemed friendly enough. "Why did you bring us here Set"? I Questioned. "Why"? He mused "do you not want to see an old friend"? He said, then laughed. "I brought you here to help you Sadie, you would like my help would you not"? I looked at Carter but he seemed in a daze as if he wasn't seeing everything that was going on. I tried not to show my fear "What kind of help might this be Set"? I asked, "It's for this quest of yours Sadie, Kek is the god you seek correct"? I stared at him with shock "How" I mumbled but he cut me off, "that doesn't matter Sadie, what matters is that you find him, of course he is the god of darkness so technically he is everywhere but you can find his source" he said, "Where is his source"? I shouldn't have asked that last bit because of course Set couldn't tell me but it was worth a shot I suppose. Set looked sad, which was most definitely not like him. I began to grow worried. "Now Sadie you know I can't tell you that, without a reason to tell you, I suppose you will have to do something for me eh". He stepped down from his throne and walked to another room, I followed but left Nephthys and Carter behind. When we reached the other room, it looked like a kitchen. Set sighed and looked down at the table "Sadie can you set the table"? Now I knew something was wrong with Set because he didn't even laugh at his Set the table joke. "Sure" I replied and began to pull the seats to the table. It took me about 15 minute I suppose to fix the table up for set and he seemed pleased that I did this without any complaining but I was worried about set, which I know is quite strange but I have never seen him so bored and sad. When I was done, he gave me a smile and told me where Kek usually is, his source anyway. He explained that Kek was usually in Egypt stuck in a tomb somewhere. I frowned "wouldn't he just blast a way out". "No, he is stuck to this spot, he was joined with the tomb". He sighed, "I wish I could you more Sadie, but that is all I know". "Its fine Set this is all I need, however I must ask why did you help us"? "Well why not Kane", he replied "It's just been so boring since that last battle and since us gods retreated to the heavens, my life has been so boring not being able to control you mortals and all". He cracked a small smile, that made me feel a bit better. "Thank you Set, and umm try to stay happy". I cheered. And at that we were teleported back to Brooklyn house. When we arrived, Carter yelped "Set" than frowned, "What happened". He asked. "Set helped us" I replied. He looked shocked, "huh I guess he can be helpful when he wants to be" he said.
