In this story, Jaz, Alyssa, Cleo, Julian, Felix, Paul, Sean, and the other known magicians are going to range from 15-21 years old. Shelby will be 12. Just letting you guys know. I give the ones that don't have specific appearance descriptions ones of my own also. I don't own them obviously, I just have no idea what they look like.

Anubis's POV

I get out of the shower and wrap a towel around me. I walk out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. Sadie found me some clothes. I put on some jeans, and a t-shirt. Everything fit me alright. I made a mental note to thank whoever Sadie had to get these from. I pick up a piece of paper that had fallen on the floor.

Meet me downstairs in the kitchen, when you're finished up here.

-Sadie

I throw the note in the trash and open my door. I closed it behind me and walked down the stairs. I walk around until I find the kitchen. Sadie looks up and smiles. "Hey there," She says. "I made you some eggs."

"How do you have eggs?" I ask. "It's not like there's a grocery store."

"We have a garden for some fruits and veggies," She says. "We also have some chickens. Alyssa, she's a magician, she tends to both of those things usually. Well her and a couple other people."

"How many people live here?" I ask.

She puts the eggs on a plate and sets them down in front of me. "Um maybe about 50. Most of them are younger than the age of 21. As for Adults, we have my uncle Amos, my father Julius, Shelby's mother Susan, Felix's mom and dad Molly and Henry. Most of the kids' parents sacrificed themselves to get them here."

"So most of the people in here are around your age?" I ask.

"We train them everyday with magic and without magic," She says. "I'm assuming we're going to train you for both."

"I don't have powers," I say.

"So, you're human?" She asks.

"No," I say. "My powers got taken away."

"How?" She asks.

"I'm not sure," I say. "I woke up and they were gone." I was lying to her. I'm sure she was believing it though. It sounded somewhat believable. I hope.

"Well," She says. "We can at least train you to fight."

"Do you think I don't know how to fight?" I ask.

"I don't know," She says. "We're going to find out. Eat up, and then we will train."

"I'm kind of tried actually," I say.

"Fine," She says. "It's probably been a long day for you. We will train tomorrow."

"Thank you," I say. "For everything, you didn't have to do any of this."

"I know," She says. "I just couldn't let you die out there."

"Thank you, it means a lot to me Sadie," I smile at her.

"Sadie," A voice says. We both turn to see Carter. "We're all meeting in the great room. Dad has an announcement."

"Alright," Sadie says. "We'll be over in a minute."

I quickly finish eating and Sadie takes care of the plate. We walk out into the great room. Sadie sits down in a chair. I stand behind the chair. There were probably about 50 people in this room. There was a group of boys sitting on the steps. There was one in their group in a muscle shirt and shorts. He stood up with his arms crossed.

"I hope everyone is enjoying their day so far," Julius speaks. "I have a couple of announcements. First, I want to welcome a new addition to this house. Andrew." He gestures to me and everyone looks in this direction. "My daughter found him on the streets and brought him in. I hope you welcome him with open arms as we always do." Everyone turns their attention back to him. "Second, I've heard from a group of magicians in Canada saying that they have a few magicians who escaped from Set. I will be traveling there to investigate their escape. Amos and I will be gone for a couple of days. Carter will be in charge. Everyone is dismissed."

Sadie gets up. "Does he always question the people who escape from Set?"

"Yes," Sadie says. "He's trying to figure out where his place is. He also wants to figure out who aides them in escaping. He's hoping Horus, Isis, or Ra have been trying to help."

I knew exactly who aided the escape of them. Me. I hoped Julius wouldn't figure out who I was. I tried to imagine what would happen if they found out I was Anubis. I'd probably be dead. "Who has been aiding the escape of the magicians in the past?"

"Anubis," Sadie says. "The one god that's actually trying to do something. I admire him for that you know. I've never met him or seen him. I just like that he's rebelling against his father. Most of the gods just agree with Set to save their lives. Anubis, is willing to risk his."

'Well,' I thought to myself. 'At least she doesn't hate you.' "He sounds like a good guy." I say.

"Yeah," Sadie says. "I'm surprised he hasn't gotten caught. Set knows everything."

"I guess not everything," I say. Set threw me through a portal with no idea where I'd go. He'd been trying to find the Kanes for years. He'd be surprised that I ended up with them.

"Hey Sadie," A girl says coming up to us. She was beautiful, she had caramel colored skin, jet black hair that was Egyptian style it went down past her shoulder. Her eyes were amber. She was wearing grey pants with a black tank top. "You must be Andrew," She smiles at me. "Carter told me about you."

"Andrew," Sadie says. "This is Zia. Carter's girlfriend."

"It's nice to meet you Zia," I hold my hand out and she takes it.

"If you ever need anything," Zia says. "Don't hesitate to ask."

"Thank you," I say.

Zia walks away. "I still think she's way out of Carter's league." Sadie says. "But she loves him."

"What about you?" I ask. "Do you have a relationship?"

"No," Sadie says. "Most of the boys here are idiots. Except for Walt. He's the least stupid."

"Who's the least stupid?" A voice asks. A guy walks up to us. He had an athletic build with coffee-brown skin, black hair that was shaved but you could still see it at the top. He was the guy standing on the stairs earlier.

"You," Sadie says. "Andrew, this is Walt Stone. He's the one that so generously let you have some of his clothes."

"Nice to meet you Walt," I say. "Thanks for the clothes."

"No problem man," He says. "Nice to meet you too. Andrew was it?"

"Yes," I say. "Andrew."

"Cool," Walt says. "So, Andrew, do you play sports?"

"No," I say. "Not really."

"Well, me and some of the guys play basketball sometimes, you welcome to join us sometime." Walt says.

"Thanks," I say.

"Fucking basketball," Sadie says.

"You know Sadie," Walt says. "You won last time. Don't try to say you hate the game."

A couple of guys come up behind Walt. One of them pats his shoulders and the other one had a basketball in hand. "Walt buddy!" One says. He had brown hair and brown eyes. "Let's go! I need to beat you!"

"That's funny Julian," Walt says. "You think you're going to win."

"Are you coming with us Sadie?" The one holding the basketball asks. He had brown eyes and red hair. He was also athletic. He just wore some shorts and shoes. He didn't have a shirt. He tosses the ball in Sadie's direction. She catches it.

"No Sean," She says. "I'm busy."

"Darn," Sean says. "The team needs you to beat Walt. He keeps winning."

Sadie tosses the ball back at Sean. "I'm showing the new guy around."

"Next time?" Sean asks.

"Maybe," She says.

Sean and Julian take off. "See you later Sadie, Andrew." Walt says before running after the boys.

"Do all the boys play sports?" I ask.

"Some of them," Sadie says. "Let's finish the tour. You know the great room. The kitchen. You know where the rooms are."

Sadie shows me the second floor and all of the training rooms, she shows me the library, the balcony with the pool, where the boys played basketball, where they had the garden and the chickens where I met Alyssa. They had quite the place set up and they had been here for years.

"I think that wraps up our tour," Sadie says. "I supposed you should get some rest. Tomorrow, we can see what you have fighting wise."

"Okay," I say.

Sadie leaves me at the door to my room. I watch her walk down the hall. I go into my room and change into some shorts. I laid in the bed and fell asleep instantly.

"Rise and shine Andrew!" A voice yells. I immediately sit up. I open my eyes to see Sadie standing in my door. She was wearing black shoes, black leggings, and a black sports bra. "Get dressed and meet me in the training room." She walks out of the room closing the door behind her.

I get up and get ready. I dress in black shoes, shorts, and a white tank top. I meet Sadie in the training room. She threw a knife across the room and it hits the target. "Wow," I say. "Nice."

"Thanks," She held another one in her hand. She put it in her weapons belt. "I practice a lot."

"What exactly are you going to teach me?" I ask.

"To fight," She says. "I want you to try to hit me."

"I'm not going to do that," I say.

"I'm sure you won't," She says. "Just try though."

"No," I say.

"Just fucking hit me Andrew," She says. "I'm not fragile. I can take a punch." I move forward to hit her. Next thing I know she grabs my arm and flips me over. My back hit the ground and I was in pain. "That was too easy."

I get back up. "I don't think I want to fight you anymore."

We continue fighting. Well, Sadie does anyway. Whenever I get close to trying to attack her, she takes me down. Either she was really good at fighting or I was getting distracted by the fact that she wore leggings and a sports bra. Though, I'm pretty sure both of those factors were why I was failing so badly. I never really had to fight. I just summon my jackals and they do my bidding. I didn't have that anymore. I had to learn one way or another. She had finally taken me down for what felt like the 100th time.

"I need to teach you a lot," She says. She takes a drink of a bottle of water and then hands it to me. I take it and drink some. I hand it back to her when I was done. She holds out her hand. I was sitting on the ground recovering. I take her hand and I get up. "Follow me," She says.

We walk out of the training room and into the hallway. Some of the guys briefly looked at Sadie when she walked past them. We walked down until we got to the infirmary. "Hey Sadie!" A girl with blond hair and blue eyes says. She wore jeans and a tank top. "Is this Andrew," She says.

"Jazzy," Sadie says. "This is Andrew. Can I get a healing potion for him?"

"You beat him up during training?" Jaz asks.

"Yes," Sadie says.

Jaz hands me a potion. I drink it. I felt it immediately, not to mention that it was really delicious.

"Thank you," Sadie says.

Sadie and I walk out of the infirmary. The doors of the house open and Carter entered. He wore jeans, boots, and a t-shirt with a leather jacket like yesterday. He had a gun strapped to his back. Zia came in behind him.

"Find anything interesting?" Sadie asks sitting on the couch putting her feet up on it. I sat down in the chair.

"No really," Zia says. "I did find a dress in a house." Zia held out a piece of red fabric and tossed it over to Sadie.

Sadie catches it and holds it out in front of her. "I like it. I never had a dress before. With the whole world falling apart a dress is not really on the to-do list to have."

"How do you know it even fits?" Carter asks.

Sadie pulls the dress over her body. Since she didn't have jeans or an actual shirt, she was able to put it on without having to remove any clothes. Carter rolled his eyes, probably to the fact that Sadie didn't really care who was in the room. The dress was pretty. It was plan red and it was spaghetti straps on it. It stopped a little before the middle of her thigh. "I'd say it fits," She says. "It looks stupid now, but if I didn't have the leggings and I had a sleeveless bra…." She was interrupted.

"Don't give us all the details Sadie," Carter says. "I really don't want to know."

Zia laughs at Carter's response. "I think it'll look cute Sadie."

"Thank you, Zia," Sadie says. Zia was behind her zipping the back up.

"See it fits fine," Zia says. Zia unzips the back so Sadie can pull it back over her body. She folds it up.

"Mind if I keep this?" She asks Zia.

"Go ahead," Zia says. "I don't need it."

Zia grabs Carters hand and they head up the steps to go to the rooms. "I'm going to go change," Sadie says.

I watch Sadie run up the steps. Sadie Kane was an interesting girl. Today I especially learned not to get on her bad side because she could beat me up pretty easily. I never realized how much I used my powers to fight until I didn't have them.
