Hey! What's up? You guys are awesome! The story is over 40 reviews now and heading to 50! I am so happy! :D I could hug you guys! Well... I don't know any of you but if I did I would! :) I am making this chapter, two chapters combined since you guys gave me a lot of suggestions, and support! :D So this is a thank you chapter! :)

I don't own the TKC or Sadie and Anubis would have a lot more scenes together and Walt would have never existed! *Somewhere out there Walt is offended*

Sadie Pov

Anubis let me go back to sleep and luckily my ba didn't feel the need to go take trips after. I woke up in my comfortable bed with my light blue cover my head; I pulled them off and saw Carter all changed and ordering pizza.

"Glad to see you woke up sleepy head." Carter joked.

I threw a pillow at him, I didn't have the energy to come up with something off the top of my head. I felt like going back to bed and forgetting all about the meeting with my parents today or the fact that we still needed to find the second part of the cure. Normally, I would feel so enthusiastic and glad that we were going to see our deceased parents but not today. They didn't even know I was hosting the adoptive son of the god my dad was hosting. The pizza guy knocked and handed the pizza to Carter. I groaned, "Carter, when we finish up eating we have to go meet mum and dad."

"Wait, why are you in a bad mood if we are seeing our parents?" I swear he is so thick sometimes.

"Because, my dear brother, I am hosting the adoptive son of the god dad's hosting and I have to be the one that opens up our transportation there and we are on a very dangerous mission." I rambled.

Carter almost dropped his slice of pizza, "Sadie, it's not like they are going to be mad at you for helping out a friend and possibly finding a lost cure." He handed me a slice of pepperoni pizza, "As for the transportation, how exactly are you getting us to the Land of the Dead?"

I munched on the pizza, "Anubis, told me in a dream that I had to do a portal out of nowhere if I wanted to get there fast. "

"So he just expects that out of you?" his voice was suddently kinda protective and not normal.

"Carter? It's not like that. He will help out. Why else would I be his host then?"

"Well, at least he will help out..."

I rolled my eyes. Why did brothers have to be so over protective? I finished up my pizza and gladly took another slice. I needed to eat well so I had enough energy to do the bloody portal and not pass out, after all.

Good you are awake. Ready to see your parents? Anubis asked right in the middle of me biting my pizza.

Oh sure! Why not? It's not like I am the one who is doing the portal. Oh, wait it is! I snapped at him.

I am sorry but I can't do it right now. You on the other hand can.

Whatever. We will talk about this later.

I put on my linen clothes and combed my hair. Trust me, you do not want to see me in the morning. It's a horrible scene... (You didn't have to agree Carter!)

"Ready?" Carter called from outside the bathroom. Did he not have patience?

"I will be ready when I am ready." I said and smiled. I quickly dyed a streak of dark blue. Satisfied, I opened the door and saw Carter watching TV. He was watching the news where it talked about their being pieces of ruby scattered in Luxor, Egypt.

He looked at me, "Okay, are you now ready?"

"Yes, it appears I am." I responded.

Carter turned off the TV, "Great. I guess now you start doing the portal." I nodded.

Anubis! Start guiding me! I half yelled, half said.

Concentrate Sadie, just concentrate.

Oh yeah, since it's sooo easy.

Concentrate. He repeated. I closed my eyes and tried to do as he said. I focused on just the portal and only the portal. Good, now it's like opening your Duat locker. He said. I thought, about how you do your combination except that I was opening it instead. Great! Now imagine yourself standing infront of your portal. I did as he instructed. Open your eyes. I slowly opened them. My portal had worked!

"Good job, Sadie!" Carter exclaimed and held my arm since I almost lost balance.

I smiled. I still couldn't believe I did that I had actually done it!, "Thanks. Now come on." I grabbed Carter's arm and we went inside the my portal. We appeared infront of Osiris' throne. My blue dad was sitting upon it and my mum was standing by his side in a ghostly white dress. They were both smiling. I felt nervous yet excited but I tried to force a smile on my face. I shook off some sand I had in my jeans, I then noticed Anubis was standing behind us.

"Hi, Mom and Dad." Carter greeted.

"Hey, Mum, Dad. How nice to see you!" I said.

"Sadie, Carter, look how much you have grown!" My mum exclaimed and hugged us both well kinda, more like trespassed us.

Anubis stepped forward and stood next to Dad, "Thank you, Anubis." Anubis nodded. Dad turned to face us, "Hello, my children. I bet you are wondering why we have called to see you."

"Yeah, we were wondering why. Care to tell us, Mum, Dad?" I said and looked at Carter who was looking at them.

"We have matters to discuss with you two and Anubis." Mum responded seriously and dad nodded. That's exactly what I wanted to avoid. They were on to us! Probably because they found out I was hosting Anubis and that we were in a quite dangerous mission with very low chances of succeding. Not good... I quickly glanced at Anubis. He was staring at me but didn't seem nervous. Like I said before, he would make a wonderful actor.

Anubis, do you know why we are here?

No. I have no idea. He responded.

"Well, since you called us, I suppose it's important." Carter said.

Dad sighed, "Well..." he stood up, "Anubis, would you please bring a table and chairs for us?" Dad asked.

"Yes, sir." Anubis made a round linen table and chairs pop out of nowhere.

"Thank you Anubis." Said my mum. We all sat in the six chairs. Anubis sat next to me and Carter on the other side of me. I noticed my nervousness was rubbing off on Carter who was playing around with a little scrap of linen.

"No problem." Anubis said.

Dad smiled at him, then began, "Okay, we need to talk to you three, about-"

"Wait! Before you tell start, can I ask something?" I interrupted; I wanted to delay this conversation as much as I could. What if they knew about our little secret and were gonna punish us?Well, the possibilities of that were slim but possible. Then again... we hadn't seen them in a while so they could have changed in that short amount of time. Wow, I am paranoid.

"Of course." Mum responded and dad focused on me.

I snapped out of it and fake smiled, "Well... you know how we are... having trouble with Horus?" I asked at the top of my head. I glanced at Anubis who looked adoreably confused and Carter looked at me with a somethings-wrong-with-you look.

"Trouble with Horus?" asked Dad.

"Yeah, he i-"

"What she means, is that Horus has treated us coldly since we got Ra back," quickly said Carter.

Both our parents looked at each other and looked pretty confused. Finally, dad talked, "Oh, I see. Well, I'm afraid there really isn't much we can do. Horus is like he is."

"Well then. Thanks for the help!" I shook my head in the sad motion.

Dad talked, "So, as we were saying, we are here to talk about how a certain two children are on a mission with slim chances of succeding and one of them is hosting a certain death god." I expected a mad voice but he sounded amused. I was quite confused. (Haha, yeah Carter, amused and confused, rhyme! What a wonderful discovery!)

"Um- so, what would the name of those... people be?" Carter asked. He didn't quite look at them in the eyes and I can definently understand why.

"Well, you know, just Sadie, Carter and Anubis." Mum answered; she definently didn't sound angry.

I glanced at Anubis, he spoke, "Wait, it wasn't their fault. As for the hosting, I'll take full responsiblity for it."

Anubis! Are you crazy?

Sadie, I'm taking the blame for this. I would never let you or your brother take it. He responded.

Both dad and mum smiled, "We aren't mad! We are proud of you three!" Dad exclamied. I did not expect that...

"Really?" I asked. This just didn't make any sense.

"Yes, really. We are proud that you would do that for a friend and that Anubis would also help out. Anubis, Osiris is also as proud as I am." Dad smiled.

"Well, then... thanks." Anubis said. He looked like he was trying to process what had just happened.

Mum laughed, "Okay, what we need to tell you is that the second piece is very old and fragile. It is going to be heavily protected and we just can't let you two go in there without much protection. She took out a bracelet and a ring, "These are for you to wear. If you are in a tough situation, these should help. Just order them to save you." She handed me the bracelet and Carter the ring, "As for you Anubis, this is for you." She brought out a black necklace and handed it to him.

"Thank you," Anubis smiled and put on the necklace.

"Thanks mum and dad. We really appreciate it." I said. This really hadn't gone as I had expected. I thought we would be scolded or embarressed or worse... I put on the bracelet. It was made out of solid gold and had the 'glyph for ankh . in the center. Which meant life. It was simple, yet great.

"Yes, thanks. You are awesome parents." Carter half smiled and put on his ring.

Dad's smile shrank, "You're all welcome. Now, we need to warn you about what you will see inside..."

:)How was it? Tell me! So REVIEW! I love reading them and they get you big updates like these! :D
