Chapter 7: The Date
Sadie P.O.V
"I need a date!", I complained.
"So do I!", said Alyssa and Cleo simultaneously.
"JINX! DOUBLE JINX! INFINITY JINX!"
"Shut up!", I exclaimed. "Someda.", I mumbled and their mouths fused together.
"Hey!", Cleo tried to say.
"Fine. Hi-nehm."
"Thank you."
"Back to dates." I said to everyone. "If anyone wants to come with me to the mall, I'll be getting a cab."
We drove to the mall once again and just randomly walked around. I was bored so I checked my facebook page. Ha! The picture of Carter sucking his thumb got over 60 likes!
'Sadie, I will kill you.', Carter replied. I was so interested in reading comments ["I do to read, Carter. How else would I have known about Katniss and the Hunger Games. And don't say the movie."] I bumped into a boy.
"Anubis?", I immediately asked. He seriously looked like was cute and had the same very pale skin, raven black hair, and chocolate eyes that made me want to melt every single time.
"Sorry, Anubis?", he looked behind him as if checking if someone was there.
"Oh, I thought you were someone else.
Sorry." "S'okay. I haven't seen you around here before. What's your name?"
"Sadie. Sadie Kane."
"What school do you go to?"
"I don't live here. I'm just here for the dance at The School."
"I go there! I'm kinda looking for a date."
"OMG, me too!"
"Wait, I don't even know your name!"
"I'm Nico di Angelo."
But before I could get a reaction, a two headed monster burst in already fighting Zia. I'd hadn't seen anything like it in Egyptian mythology.
"Zia!", I exclaimed.
"Sadie, a little help." I was about to tell Nico to stand back, when I realized he wasn't there.
"Nico?", and I saw a figure holding a pitch black sword that seemed to be bending shadows battling the other head.
I tried everything I could think of. I Ha-di-ed it and even try to douse it with boiling hot cheese. I finally switched to my last resort. I thought of fire and with a wrenching pull in my gut, I burned the whole of the monster.
"Nico, I'm guessing you knew what that was?", I cautiously asked.
"Hydra. Greek monster. So what are you guys? Hecate?
Immortals?" "No, we're Egyptian magicians. Aren't you?"
"No. the only mortal son of Hades is standing right in front of you."
"The Greeks are alive?", Zia gasped.
"If there are already 2 pantheons, why can't there be a third?"
"Who else is out there?", Zia demanded.
"The Romans."
Then I realized we were in a burning building with a bunch of mortals still watching us.
"Hi-nehm.", I quickly said.
As the mall fixed itself back up, I manipulated the Glamour and the mortals all started wandering around saying things like "What the heck?" and "What just happened". It was actually a little funny seeing how confused they were.
"Nico, come with us.", I urged.
"I don't trust you guys.", he said.
"Come on!" and I grabbed his hand and pulled him near the water fountains. "Um.. Nico this is Zia Rashid. She is a scribe in the House of Life, former host of Nephthys and Eye of Ra. She is also girlfriend to Carter- my falconlike brother, combat magician, and Pharaoh of Egypt. I already told you I'm Sadie. I'm a magician, host of Isis, goddess of magic, defeater of Set and Apophis, daughter to Osiris, the god of the Underworld, and kitten to Bast, the goddess of cats."
"Fine, since you guys were honest with me, I'll tell you the truth.", Nico started. "I am Nico di Angelo, son of Hades, god of the Underworld, Counselor of the Hades cabin at Camp Half-Blood, a camp for demigods. I am the Ghost KIng and a Hero of Olympus. I mysteriously traveled here after being taken away from Camp Jupiter, a camp for Roman demigods where I'm currently the Ambassador of Pluto. Now that ou know about me Sadie, will you go to the dance with me?"
"Yes!", I exclaimed and pecked his cheek.
"Oh My Gods! I forgot to pay for my dress!" She held up a dress with a white chiffon and tulle bottom part and gold top part with cool designs. Then she bolted back to Macy's.
It was just me and Nico. "I'll pick you up at the street corner at 5?", he asked. "
Okay.", we hugged and I went back to Macy's to get Zia.
