Blah blah... I'll save you the blabber this time and cut to the chase. Thanks for the reviews! Just to let you guys know, even though I post two chapters a day, I won't post them until I have atleast one review on the new chapter(s).

KITTY

Chapter Three

Oh Kitty... What have you done?

For months now Edward White had been Kitty's employer. She had turned up a position in the government to reside in Egypt, where she could live, hopefully in peace.

Every book and scroll, extract or any form of writing, pictures and ect. that contained even a mention of anything related to the fourteenth level djini were kept away hidden somewhere else. She'd even tear out pages to keep his name safe from her master.

Bartimaeus...

And yet... Somehow. She cursed loudly to herself, still cleaning, and doing everything she was supposed to get away from. Why did she let this happen? Why did she have to create... No. She could feel the tears welling up in her cheeks. She ignored the djini as he came to her. She would act as a servant, as 'Amy'.

She knew it wouldn't work. She knew he knew. But still she tried. It was worth a shot, even for a second to know that the djini wouldn't recognise her. No doubt he'd hold this over her head.

Not Edward's. Definitely not Edward's. The creature wasn't even alive. She doubted that Edward had even heard of John Mandrake...

She turned to face him. Bartimaeus. She had to regret that as soon as it was done. She couldn't continue to lie to him like this... It would only make matters worse.

She sighed briefly, looking down. "I'm..." She began to trail off, suddenly loosing the will.

"You're what...?" The djini asked, rather bamboozled by the whole situation. Well of corse he didn't know...

Suddenly, the girl flung her arms around Ptolemy's neck, hugging him tightly. She could feel the gentle trickle of tears rolling down her cheek. "I'm so sorry..." She whispered again, even quieter than before.

Bartimaeus placed a hand on her back, unsure of what to do. "Sorry for what...?" The girl pulled away again, wiping the tears from her face.

"For what he's about to charge you do do." Kitty whispered, still holding tightly at Bartimaeus's arm. The demon took a slight step back.

"What... What do you mean? Isn't that Natha-" Kitty cut him off, shaking her head.

"No... I wish it were." She whispered again. Bartimaeus frowned sympathetically.

"Oh... Kitty. What have you done?"

I have to leave this chapter here folks. I know... You still haven't a clue as to what's going on, correct? Well, hopefully we'll be able to sort that out sooner or later.

'Edward' is still a mystery to me. I still hate his name, and his guts and have no idea as to... Well, I won't spoil it for you now.
