The Bloody… Crown?
Chapter 10
CPOV
Ok. So number one way to cheer me up? Tell me you know where the girl I like is. You'll immediately become my new best friend. When Horus told me he knew where Zia was, I almost passed out. Why hadn't he told me sooner?! But that didn't matter because he was telling me now. "You know where Zia is?! Where is she? Is she alive? Is she ok? Tell me!" I yelled. "Whoa! Carter chill! Yes, I know where she is… you know what? Yes to all those questions." Horus said. "Now, I'll tell you where she is. You'll go by there to finish this quest. She's in Cairo, Egypt. I can't tell you exactly where she is, but you'll get there eventually. Trust me. Oh, and don't worry. She should remember you. Now I need to send you back before you burn up. And tell that dog this, 'If you make my human upset, or lay a finger on his sister, in any way that she doesn't want… I will hunt you down and personally force you to eat your little scales of judgment.' Anyway, see ya later Carter! And if you need me, just call."
At that my ba took its leave and turned back into the deranged bird. Then it made its way back to my body, where it stayed for the rest of the night, leaving me to dream about finding Zia. That last thing I remember is smiling at the little message I would get to give Anubis in the morning.
When I woke up the next morning, I could hear voices and smelled meat cooking. I sat up, rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and looked around me. Anubis, Sadie, and Kyori were all awake and sitting around the fire I had gotten going last night. It didn't bother me this early in the morning that Anubis and Sadie were holding hands. The only two things I cared about were the bathroom, and the bacon that was cooking. I went and relieved myself, then came back to eat. I looked at the scene in front of me, and Anubis smirked at me from across the fire. I said, "Hey, Anubis. I took a little trip last night and Horus told me to give you this message: 'If you make my human upset, or lay a finger on his sister, in any way that she doesn't want… I will hunt you down and personally force you to eat your little scales of judgment.' That's all." I looked back down at my plate and ate another piece of bacon while Sadie blushed bright red with the amazing combo of embarrassment and anger. I grinned at Anubis' shocked face when it changed from pale white to dark red. He started to say something, then shook his head and continued to eat his food and talk to Sadie. Sadie, however, looked at me like I had killed her cat, Muffin. I returned the look with one of innocence I had learned from her. She glared at me a little, but when Anubis kissed her cheek and asked her what was wrong, she just looked up at him and said, "Oh, it's nothing… just some pest control."
I chuckled into my bacon as she tried to convince him nothing was wrong. Then I heard Kyori growl at me. I'm pretty sure he was warning me that if I did any more, I would be meeting Anubis on his own turf. Great. So instead of continuing to mess with Sadie and her pet, I turned my attention to the matter at hand. First, we'd need to speak to someone with some knowledge. And I knew just where to find him.
Hey guys! Told you this one would be short, so sorry. Who do you think they're going to see and where do you think at? Comment and tell me! Love ya!
