Hey! I'm here again for Round 6…Chapter 6…

Again, THANKYOU! To all my lovely reviewers – you guys help out so much! :D

So, getting right to the point and responding to reviews:

NinjaxSketechax: It WAS pretty nice: couldn't get anybody very hurt. Yet. Well, dreams have that nasty habit of popping up whether you know the people in it or not. So, yeah. Gulp.

Annabeth Brady: Could you please stop with all the negative? Seriously, I don't mind constructive criticism… but just being Eeore isn't very helpful.

Call Brandybuck: I'm glad it was interesting

Hermes Little Girl: Oh, don't worry; I couldn't just kill Carter

Chiisana Pierrot: I'm definitely taking your advice on that one – thanks for all the tips you give! And yes, BS will return :)

ZeusPoiseidonHades11: No problem with reviewing! I liked it! Oh and how do I take your poll?
I've never done one before.

Juli Beawr: It 'eez' strange. I wonder too…

I luv this: I'm glad you love it :)

Author 37: Your right about that. The only problem is that I know very little British slang. Ah well… yeah, I wrote the end about 1am on a sugar high. Not good.

Deathly-Hunger-Jackson: I never lie! Trust me, lying isn't my thing! At all! I will NEVER say anything is good out of sorriness! It is actually good! I'm very flattered that you think this is amazing – although I think being in love with a story will prove difficult later in life lol :)

Redandwhitetigers: That question will answer itself – don't worry, I can't kill Annabeth :) And yeah, it was just a dream. But it won't be for long.

PercyAwesome: Hey! I'm glad you like the idea :) yeah, it's pretty hard to perfectly capture the characters, so they do sound a little different sometimes – especially Percy. Oh, and it will later be explained that Frank tells him… because Frank hasn't been around for a while he doesn't know Percy wants to kill Carter. Ah, I'm making no sense. In a nutshell, it will make sense later. I'm glad you liked it, and I'll try very hard to write fast! :D

Guest: Not quite sure what that face means…

Now that that's done, I have one last message and then I'm done.

My message: Pretty please review because I love it when people do; they really help me write better.

And the story… drumroll…

Chapter 6: Sadie

It was déjà-vu. Sadie Kane was chewing some gum, resting on the back of her brother's temperamental gryphon Freak. How thrilling. But she felt very uneasy, thinking about her dream last night, and her conversation with Carter early that morning. He had wanted to chat and had scared the ba out of her by appearing in her room.

"It'll be fine!" Carter had wanted to let Frank show him his home.

"How do you know we can trust them?" Sadie just couldn't tell Carter about her dream. He would think she was being paranoid.

"They seem like nice people. Khufu doesn't really like them, but you know…"

"Maybe Khufu is smarter than you." It was probably true, Sadie shrugged.

"Gosh, thanks BS. It'll be fine!"

Sadie wasn't very convinced, and even now, riding on Freak to an unknown destination, her heart was in her mouth. She took a deep breath.

"Come on Sadie, you'll be fine, YOLO." She muttered to herself. "Just relax."

Then she saw something and gave a small cry. The same beach from her dream was approaching.

"Carter! We have to turn back. NOW!" Sadie screamed. Carter looked at her sideways.

"Stop acting weird Sadie." He said. Sadie shivered.

"So, you have a Nome on the east side?" Carter asked Frank and Hazel. Sadie listlessly leant back on Freak, listening to the same conversation she'd heard in her dream. She had to get Carter away from here. Suddenly a crazy plan formed in her mind. Without thinking, she looked down at the sandy beach. She watched the two figures, Percy and Nico, look up, see them and yelp. Then Frank went down to talk. Now was their chance.

"Carter, get out of the bloody way!" Sadie called and jumped over her brother, taking control of Freak.

"Come on!" She kicked the sides of the gryphon and steered him away from the beach.

"What in the bottom of the Duat are you up to Sadie?" Carter said frantically. He probably thinks I've gone bonkers. Sadie thought, slightly bitterly. Concentrating very hard, she guided Freak away from the beach. All she knew was she had to go and she had to hurry. Suddenly Carter yelled out to Freak.

"Freak, stop!" Freak listened to Carter before anybody else, and so he stopped. Sadie cursed under her breath.

"Carter, just trust me!"

"Why can't we stay here Sadie?"

"Because…" it was too late. The same guy rode up to them in his flying black horse. Carter's eyes widened.

"Percy!" It was Hazel. Oh no. Sadie realised she couldn't change anything. The boy took the pen out of his pocket and glared at Carter.

"If you plan to kill my brother, you'll have to kill me first." Sadie sat up a bit taller on Freak. The guy named Percy gave her the very same wolf stare. Believe it or not, it was scarier in real life.

"Carter Kane, you…"

"Hold up!" Sadie spluttered. She knew what he was going to say, so she may as well get to the point. "If you think we sent Phillip to…"

"Who the Tartarus is Phillip?" Percy scrunched his eyebrows at her. Sadie sighed. This conversation was just happening all over again. Time to spice things up.

"Our albino crocodile. Now, good chap, we cannot tarry." Sadie pretended she was an actor from one of Gran's old movies, giving a bow with great flourish. "We must journey yonder back to our residence beyond the lake."

"Sadie, you're a geek." Carter said, annoyed. Oh ho! He was one to talk. Sadie rolled her eyes. Her dear brother would realise soon enough she was saving his neck. Percy looked at them both with a bewildered expression. That was always good.

"Sir Percival, I bid you adu." Sadie pushed her brother out of the way and gave another attempt at controlling Freak. It didn't work so well. Freak gave a screech and tried to throw Sadie off. He never did really like her. Carter was looking very white, and threw up a couple of times. The Percy guy was obviously fed up with them. He must think we're completely barmy. Sadie thought. Ah well. Percy drew his pen… sword… weapon. Bloody hell. Carter gave her a sideways look and drew his crook and flail from the Duat. Percy slammed the butt of his sword into Carters chest, but he met the strike.

"Yeah, beat that glug." Sadie sighed as Carter was lifted into the air by Percy's watery hands. Nothing had changed. She wanted to help Carter, but in the dream that hadn't worked so well. Nico, the guy on the skeletal horse, rode up. Please no! Sadie thought.

"Hey, I'm Nico di Angelo, and I'd like to join the party." Sadie looked at him. Bloody Bast, he was hotter in real life. And he'd used Walt's pickup line again. His dark eyes locked onto her brother. Sadie realised she couldn't change anything. She would have to summon Bast. The Nico guy and Percy dude would both hate their guts. Not wasting any time, she skipped ahead a little and summoned her favourite cat goddess.

"What the Osiris are you and your brother doing in Greek territory?" Bast demanded.

"Greek territory? I'm pretty sure we're still in New York."

"No, no – the…" Bast's eyes widened. "Oh. That idiot…"

"What?" Sadie asked anxiously. She didn't like what Bast was saying. She licked her cracked lips in anticipation.

"Nothing kitten." Bast said a little too casually.

"Sure." Sadie muttered. She realised now was her chance to get more information.

"Bast, what's going on?" she asked. She felt so confused. Bast winced.

"I wish I could tell you. I really do, kitten." Bast took out her knives and interrupted the connection between Carter and Percy's water. Carter started falling, and Freak leapt into action, catching him neatly. Carter surged at Carter again; in just the same way he had before. Would her dear brother ever learn? Nico interrupted, attacking them, forcing Carter to turn and fight. Nico was using a black sword, and it glinted wickedly in the light of the setting sun.

"Thanks man." Percy panted. "That fist was a little OTT."

"You think?" Nico rolled his eyes. Then he pointed his sword at Sadie and Carter. "Go home." He said quietly dangerous. "And NEVER come back." Sadie realised she had no idea what was going to happen now. But at least she wasn't energy drained, like all the others. Suddenly the voice of Isis spoke in her mind. She groaned. Not this again!

"Sadie! Whatever happens, you mustn't leave here as enemies."

"Back again are we Isis." Sadie muttered. Looking over at Carter, she could tell by his expression that Horus was egging him on again too. Why me? Sadie groaned. Looking at Nico, his sword still at their throats, she had an idea. She concentrated very hard and tried to pull her kopesh out of the Duat. She had decided that she should learn how to use a certain type of weapon, and had been training to use her kopesh for months. Reaching out, she succeeded only in pulling out some thin air. Sighing, she reached for the wand she'd attached to her belt. Not quite sure what to do, she decided to stick to her old time favourite.

"Ha di!" She cried, aiming her
wand at the skeletal horse's legs. They shattered, and Nico gave a dry cry as he began plummeting to the beach far below. Percy swooped down on his black Pegasus, and Nico just managed to cling on to the horse's bum, pulling himself up so he was awkwardly perched on the back of the horse.

"Come on Carter!" Sadie cried. This was getting far too strange for her liking. Carter was motionless, staring numbly ahead.

"Sadie…" he murmured.

"What?" All of a sudden she saw. A massive army of teenagers dressed in armour and helmets with orange and purple plumes. Holy Anubis! They were dead meat if they stayed. That weasel – literally. Frank must have alerted them. Sadie raised an eyebrow. Ah well, here goes nothing. She remembered Isis's warning; Do not leave here as enemies. She summoned her kopesh again, this time being successful.

"Come on, brother dear. Let's go kick some armoured butts." Carter gave a slightly crazy smile.

"BS, I couldn't agree more." With that, being outnumbered about 400 to 1, the two Kane's charged.

And… cut! Scene. So… that's that scene! I'm working on making the chapter's better. Oh, and speaking of better, who thinks it's a good idea for me to become a Beta reader? Just putting it out there. So, I'll update after…hmm… 75 reviews. That should give me TONS of time. Until then, peace out! :D
