Carter's POV
I sat outside the infirmary, next to Zia who was clutching my hand. Jaz was healing Sadie, she had assured me that she was going to be fine, but I still couldn't help but feel worried.
"Hey it's going to be alright." Zia said lifting my chin up so I could see her face. She must have sensed my nervousness.
"I know but I still feel guilty for letting this happen to her, she's my baby sister, I'm supposed to protect her." I said.
"It's not your fault you did all that you could." Zia said and pressed her lips against mine. But the kiss was cut short by Jaz walking out of the infirmary.
"Sadie is awake and she is fine, might have a severe headache from the poison, but she'll live." She said
"Can I see her?"
"Walt is in there with her now, but sure."She started to walk away but I stopped her.
"How long until she is back on her feet, I know this going to sound awful, and I am concerned about her, but we need to see our dad as soon as possible." I asked.
"I understand I want her to rest a while longer maybe a couple more hours. Though I am sure she wants out of the infirmary ASAP, she hates it in there." With that last comment she left.
Sadie's POV
I woke up to a blurred vision of Jaz standing over me. I could tell I was in the infirmary at Brooklyn house. Great I hate that place. I don't even remember how I got here. The last thing I remembered was that I was in Walt's arms and he Setne blasted into the hallway, than everything went black.
"Well, good morning sleepy head. How are you feeling?" Jaz asked in her cheerful voice.
"Like someone hit me over the head with a jackhammer." I said bluntly.
"Yeah, but be thankful for how lucky you are. A couple minutes later and you could've died."
"Right I am very thankful ." I said sarcastically "But can I get out of here now." I started to sit up and a shock of pain went through me and I winced. Jaz helped me to sit up.
"Oh no you're not going anywhere-"
"But" I interrupted
"No buts I want you to get some rest." She finished her sentence then strolled out the door. Only moments after she left Walt walked in.
"Hey" he said sitting next to me on the bed. "How are you?"
"Besides for the massive headache and the splitting pain in my side, I'm good." I said sarcastically with a fake smile in my face.
"I'm so sorry; I shouldn't have let him capture you. And he nearly killed you. I could've stopped him but I wasn't fast enough. And now you are paying for it. I should have known he was coming back, I could've sensed him-"Honestly he rambled on more I didn't even think he was taking any breaths while saying that. So I decided to shut him up the only way I knew how. I pressed my lips to his for a short but sweet kiss. The sudden movement caused searing pain in my side that felt like someone was trying to split me in half. But after a few moments in that position the pain eased and it was worth it. We broke off moments later.
"And I thought I was the one who talked a lot." A smile spread across his lips. Then we resumed the kiss. But it was cut short by Carter and Zia walking in.
"She has been up for two minutes and you two are already making out." Zia laughed at my brother's comment. I kept my thoughts on how many times he and Zia made out in front of us to myself.
"What do want" I grumbled laying back down while trying to keep from wincing from the pain.
"Oh so my little sister gets kidnapped by a psycho ghost and nearly stabbed to death and suddenly I don't matter." He sounded sarcastically offended.
"Of course not, and I was not stabbed to death." I said rolling my eyes.
"Well whatever, you nearly died. Jaz says you should be fine after a couple of hours rest."
"Yeah-, about that how soon can I get out of here. I hate the infirmary."
"Give another two hours, soon after we will need to head into the duat, we still need to see dad."
"Oh and Thoth." Zia added.
"Right I think we should split up."
"No way, every time we split up, Walt always has something to do with death, you and Zia always get yourselves into trouble and I have to come save your butts." What I said wasn't a lie. If you've heard our past three recordings you should know it really does happen every time.
"Okay, you've got a point. We should stick together" he looked as if he were in a trance saying that, as if he were deep in thought. He seemed to suddenly realize whatever he was thinking and jumped slightly.
"Sadie Setne said he had forever to execute his plan. Did he happen to tell you what that plan was? Did he?" he asked. How was I supposed to answer that exactly? Tell him that Setne really wanted to kill him not me. And that he had completely planned the house of life's down fall. That's quite a bombshell.
I went to say something, or mostly babble to postpone the conversation, but before I could Alyssa burst through the infirmary doors, breathing hard.
"I think I found a big glitch in your plan." She said, her expression stricken with horror.
