Sadie POV
Our dinner went pretty well…if it wasn't for the man with a red striped suite. Okay, I should start from the top and explain. Hathor came to our table and laid a platter of spaghetti and meatballs in front of us. It smelled delicious. Anubis looked like he could gobble it up even if he was a god. "Enjoy dears!" Hathor said, giving me yet another one of her signature winks. I got my fork and so did Anubis and we speared some spaghetti. Then everything started getting horribly wrong. Hathor sent a band to play some romantic music for us; I felt a horrible déjà vu, I felt like I was in "The Lady and the Tramp" in that scene where they ate spaghetti in that Italian restaurant. Then I felt a sudden chill on the back of my spine, a man in a red striped suite stepped inside the restaurant, he looked so familiar, and the worst part; I knew why. Before I could tellAnubis who I just saw, it seemed like he had already figured it out. "I'll be back." He said gritting his teeth. "Be careful!" I said, Anubis looked at me with his gorgeous brown eyes a look of shock on his face, then the shock turned to a smile "I will, for you." He said softly, I blushed. The man in red stood up and went in the men's loo, Anubis followed him. 'This is going to get really dirty.' I thought to myself, and boy was I right.
Anubis POV
I stepped in the men's restroom; I could feel my face boiling with anger. A man in a red suite was leaning on a sink, "Hello son." He spat, obviously enjoying my anger and annoyance. "What are you doing here?" I asked in a silent, dangerous tone. Set pretended to look hurt, "Why can't I see my son on his lovely date with his lovely girlfriend, hmm?" he asked in an innocent tone. I couldn't help but lunge at him, my fists bawling all over the place, trying to hit him in every place I could reach. "You-" I said, taking one hit on his face, "were-" I tried again, "the-" I tried once more, before I could take my fourth try on hitting him he grabbed my hand and twisted it, "-red pig?" he finished for me in a tone of mock innocence, "yes I was, she's a very hard rock to crack mind you." He said in a fake friendly voice. "I swear, I'll, I'll, I'll-"
I said in an angry tone, "Oh don't tell me you'll try to kill your own father now, will you?" he said, using one of his signature mock hurt voices. 'I swear before the night is through, I'm going to beat my good for nothing father into a pulp.' I thought to myself. Then the unexpected happens; Hathor comes in the bathroom, walks right to my father and slaps him in the face.
Sadie POV
I couldn't stand it any longer; I stood up and walked to the men's loo. When I went in, the oddest scene greeted me; Hathor was screaming at a stunned Set and Anubis was pining Set's hand behind his back, although he looked quite stunned himself. "HOW DARE YOU RUIN THIS LOVELY COUPLE'S EVENING! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH WE'VE BEEN THROUGH TO MAKE THESE TWO HAVE A PERFECT EVENING? GO! DON'T YOU DARE TRY TO RUIN THIS LOVELY COUPLE'S EVENING AGAIN! IF YOU EVER DO, EXPECT TO FEEL THE TRUE WRATH OF LOVE! DO NOT UBDERESTIMATE ME SET, I CAN DO THINGS THAT WILL MAKE EVEN THE BRAVEST WARRIOR CRY! GET OUT!" Hathor cried as she pushed Set to the door, obviously Set was not a fool; he left the restaurant looking quite…frightened. Hathor took a deep breath, smoothed out her dress and smiled at me and Anubis as if nothing happened, "You two should go now. It's been a pleasure serving you, anyways, an even bigger challenge awaits the both of you in Brooklyn House, and I'm afraid I might not be able to help you out of this one." she said. Fear and dread crept over me and before I knew it, I blurted out the answer, "Carter." I said, Hathor nodded gravely, and then turned to Anubis, "You know what to do dear. I trust you'll do what is right." She said then turned to me, "Don't defy your brother dear, he knows what is best, let Anubis handle it." Anubis blushed and nodded gravely, Hathor gave me and Anubis a hug, then he made a portal to Brooklyn house. Hathor's words rang in my head; 'Don't defy your brother dear, he knows what is best, let Anubis handle it', I certainly hope your right Hathor because knowing my brother, his is not going to go down easily, not without a fight.
I hope you enjoyed!:D Please review, it will really help me finish chapter 6! Thanks!:)
