I hadn't wanted to do this. But my father had convinced me. As soon as I had hung up on Anubis the jerk, I had spun around and there good old Dad himself stood. He had convinced me that I was no son of his if I was giving up this quickly. So I decided that if I couldn't make my point over phone, I would have to do it in person. And that was how I got here. Taking a deep breath, I rapped on the door of Brooklyn House. For a moment, there was complete silence that reminded me of the eery calm before the storm. A small kid holding a basketball and wearing a shirt with a penguin on it, swung the door open and beamed at me. "You must be Anubis's cousin...he's been ranting about you all morning." The kid said as he grabbed my arm and dragged me in. He dragged me through what seemed like millions of identical hallways before climbing up three flights of stairs and then swerving into a small room. The door was closed. "Don't tell him I brought you up here." The kid mouthed before running down the stairs. I slowly turned the knob and pushed open the door. A tall african american boy sat typing vivaciously on the computer. He jerked his head up as I stepped into the room. "I'm-" I began. "Yes," He said. "Your Nico Di'Angelo." He finished. "Uh, yes but how did you know that?" I asked, suddenly suspicious. "My name is Walt. I host Anubis." The boy held out his hand. I nodded weakly, ignoring it. Suddenly, my cousins annoying voice broke the silence. "Hello dear cousin." He said. "Anubis, we need to talk-" I began. "I've heard all I need to hear from you, Nico. Just leave us alone." Anubis growled. My pale face burned bright red in fury. "Me leave you alone! Why don't you leave us alone! Its your magic blocking coincidentally only us Greek halfbloods off from the rest of the world."
I shouted. "But Sadie said-" Anubis began. "Who cares what Sadie said! Sadie, Sadie, Sadie...what does she matter!" I fumed knocking over a probably priceless Egyptian artifact. Suddenly, the door swung open. A tall girl with straight blond hair wearing a leather jacket, faded jeans, and combat boots burst in. It may not sound like a good combination but she was seriously hot. My face turned an even darker red than before. "You were saying?" She said coolly. "Nothing..." I muttered, backing out of the room.
