Sadie's POV

**Day One**

Set. It was him. The one who killed my mother. "I should have known you were the one who did this!" I shout. "Where's Anubis?"

"Anubis," Set says. "We left him in the car."

"You left him to die!" I backed up until my back hit the wall. I slide down to the ground. Anubis could be dead by now. He could have been dead the whole time. The last thing I remember was me screaming for him to wake up with no response.

"Unfortunately," Set says. "He's not dead."

I look up at him with tears sliding down my face. I wasn't even aware I was crying. I Just wanted to get out of here and find Anubis.

"Where is he?" I ask.

"According to our sources he was admitted to a hospital this morning. He's in a coma, he had lost a lot of blood and he has a few broken ribs. I wouldn't suspect him coming to save you any time soon." Set explains.

"He doesn't need to come to me," I stand up and walk over to the chair in the corner. It was a wooden chair. I moved behind it. "I just have to find my way to him."

I pick up the chair and throw it to the ground. It breaks in half. I pick up a piece of wood and hit Set in the face with it. He shouts and falls to the ground. I drop it and run to the door and open it. I run down the hallway and keep turning trying to find a way out. I stop when I see security guards running towards me. I turn to go back and there were more. I stop because there was nowhere to run. One of the guards take my arms and put them behind my back. A few minutes later Set joins us. There was blood coming from his mouth. He took a rag from his suit and wiped the blood off.

"Sadie Kane," Set says. "You're a tough one."

"Why don't you just kill me like you killed my mother?" I try to get away but the guard had a strong hold on me.

"I still have plans," Set explains. "I'm not going to kill you Sadie. Not yet." He looks at the guards. "Take her back to her room." He starts to walk away and then stops. "Clean up that mess in there also."

I watch as he walks off. The guards then start dragging me away. I struggle to get away from them. After a lot of turning down hallways we end up at a door labeled Kane, Sadie. They open it. Two guards were in there cleaning up the chair mess that I made. The two holding me stood with me until the others were done. They leave the room then the other two let me go leaving me alone in the room.

I pounded on the door for a few minutes and shouted for them to let me go. I'm trapped in Set's evil layer with no way out. I don't know if Anubis was okay. Even if he is alright there was probably no way for him to find me with all of his injuries. I only know one thing. I have to find a way out of here. To let everyone know I'm okay and that I'm not dead.

**A few hours later**

I spent a few hours sitting in different areas of the room. I explored it all. It was a small room. It had four walls that were painted dark grey with white trim on the top and bottom. The floor was a dark hard wood. There was a red carpet in the center of the floor. The twin size bed was in the corner with a red quilt, and dark grey sheets. With a white four post bed frame with a matching end table next to the bed with a lamp on it. A dresser that also matched the rest of the furniture. There was a table and chair on one of the other walls. On the wall opposite of the bed was a door that opened up to a bathroom that had a toilet, sink, shower, and a shelf of red towels. There were no windows in either of the rooms.

I sit on the bed and cross my legs and think about how to get out of here. I could try what I did last time but there wasn't a chance that Set was going to be as easy as last time. I spent most of my time thinking about Anubis. I thought about the time that Anubis and I last talked before we were chased by Set. He promised that he was not going to let Set hurt me and that he would get me to my family safely. If Anubis is out there and alive he was going to be upset with himself that he didn't save me. I wanted him to know that it was going to be okay and that I was fine. I also remembered what happened after. He kissed me. I kissed him back. I wanted to let him know how I felt about him. I'm taken away from my thoughts by the sound of the door opening. A person comes in and sets a tray on the table and then he leaves. I get up and walk over to the table. It was a tray of food and a bottle of water. I sit in the chair and eat my food. After I was done I take the bottle of water and sat back on the bed. I had no idea how to get out of here. I went over to the dresser and found some white and black plaid pajama shorts and a black tank top. I go to the bathroom and change. I come back and then decided to go to sleep.

**Sadie's Dream**

I was standing on the back porch of the safehouse looking out at the forest. I was wearing shorts, a white tank tops, leather jacket, and boots. I stand there for a minute before I feel a pair of arms wrap around me. I looked down and saw leather. "Anubis," I say.

"Hello," He says resting his head on my shoulder. "How are you this morning?"

"Great," I say. "Where were you this morning?"

"I went out to town," He says. "I bought you something."

I turn around and he releases me. He reaches for a bag he set on the table between the two chairs. He pulls out a necklace box. He opens it. It was a a long chain with a red stone.

"It's a ruby," He says. "The stone, I got it in memory of your mother."

I smile. I didn't usually like jewelry but this was beautiful and it had a meaning. "Thank you," I say. "I love it."

Anubis smiles. He takes it out and puts it on me. I look down at it and smile. I hug Anubis. When I let go he was gone. "Anubis?" I ask. I walk around and search the house. "ANUBIS!" I yell. The picture changes to the car accident. Me shouting for Anubis even though he was knocked out. Someone grabbing me and dragging me from the car.

**End of Dream**

**Day Two**

I wake up and look around. I was still in Set's prison. I get up and head to the bathroom. I rinse my face with cold water. I head back to my room and find some clothes. I pick out a white and black t-shirt with stripes and black jeans. I take a shower then I get dressed. When I was done I went back into the other room. There was a tray. It had pancakes with bacon and eggs. There was a glass of apple juice sitting next to it. I eat the food and then I walk around. There was nothing to do. I sat on the bed thinking about Anubis. He had to be okay. I was worried. Set had told me that Anubis was in a coma. I couldn't trust if Set was telling the truth. I just knew that I had to know if Anubis was okay. I had been taken with him left alone in the car leaving him alone. If I was taken on one of the first days I wouldn't have been worried. After getting to know him throughout the trip. Then the couple days we spent at the farmhouse. Then the kiss. I wanted to be with him. Sitting at his side waiting for him to wake up.

Then I came up with an idea. I go and take the plate and rinse it off in the sink in the bathroom. I come out when I hear someone outside the door. I quickly move to the wall with the door. Someone opens the door. As he enters I smash the plate on his head and he falls to the ground. I pick up a big piece of the now broken plate and head out the room. I walk down the hall and turn the corner. I sneak around the building until eventually I find a stairwell. I open the door and quickly go down the stairs. I then get to the first floor. I try to open the main front door.

"Miss Kane," A voice says. "I see you're trying to escape."

I turn around and see Set. "Your guards are too easy to get away from," I say. "Maybe you should have them trained better."

"Not all of us can have agents like Anubis," Set explains. "He's very good at his job. Dedicated."

"It's because he wants revenge on you," I say. "You killed his mother in front of him."

"I was trying to prove a point," Set says with his hands behind his back. "He just didn't learn it. He gets too attached to things."

"If he wakes up he's going to come for me," I say. "You might as well let me go now or kill me so he has nothing to fight for."

"I do plan to kill you," Set says. "I just need Anubis to be here for it. I want him to suffer."

"Why am I important to you? Why is Anubis important to you?" I ask.

"I'll tell you when the time is right," Set says. "In the meantime, guards… please take her back to her room." Guards show up from behind him. He stops one. "Do make sure that whoever enters her room can handle her. I don't want her to leave the room until I say."

The guard nods and then they take me to my room. I sit on the bed while they clean up the mess I made. I wanted to talk to Set. I needed answers. Why is Anubis Important? What is Set up to? The only way to find out was to stay put. I spend the rest of the day thinking and remaining in my room.

**Day Three**

I get up and get dressed. When I was out of the bathroom there was a tray like yesterday with the same breakfast. The only difference was that there was a note beside it. I pick up the note.

Sadie,

I will be sending someone to get you in an hour. I have some explaining to do.

Set.

"Finally, some answers," I say to myself.

I eat the breakfast and then wait for the guards to come get me. They lead me to an office. It was the only room that had color. It had a lot of red. I sat in on of the chairs. I was left alone in the room. I look at some pictures on Set's desk. There was a picture of a little boy. He was probably three years old. Black hair and dark eyes. He was smiling. He was with a woman with dark hair and dark eyes.

"I see you've found my pictures fascinating," Set says.

"Who's this boy?" I ask. "You're son."

"My son yes," Set says sitting down. "With his mother. They are both long gone by now."

Something felt familiar about the smile in the boy. I turn my attention to Set. "Are you going to tell me why I'm here."

"I've brought you here to tell you a story," Set says. "To understand everything I'm doing, I think you need to know more about my life. Starting with the day I met your mother."

Thanks for reading guys. Hope you enjoy, I'll have another chapter soon. I'm trying to get better. I also am starting to develop another story. It takes me time because I want to plan out what I need to do for the story. I'll keep you updated and maybe have a description about it in a future chapter.
