6th Chapter? Already? No way! I'm still proud of myself for being about to come this far with romance of all things, even though there isn't much of a plot. Comes with not having much of an imagination, i suppose. Hey, don't forget to check out my fictionpress page, too, cuz i've got some poems ive been thinking about sending in to my school's "art spirit" or student literature magazine, but idk if they are any good? Dont forget, im obsessed with reviews :)

"Yay!" Sadie twirled around her room, hugging her stuffed octopus (WHAT?) "I thought he was only going out with me so he wouldn't hurt my feelings, but this certainly proves he likes me. Anubis totally looked depressed after I told him that I liked someone else. Yipee!"

"SADIE!" Carter bellowed. He smashed the door open with his deluxe flying sidekick (though he could've used ha-di, or better yet, just used the doorknob like a normal human…which he isn't, anyway, so it doesn't matter). Sadie was so surprised she launched her octopus at her brother's face. The octopus hit him with such force that he was slammed against the hallway wall through the open door. He removed the octopus from his face and stood up, shakily, but as angrily as before. "Sadie, did you manipulate Anubis's feelings just so you could find out if he had a crush on you?"

"Yea."

"And you are proud of this."

"Yea."

"Was there seriously any other way to find how Anubis felt about you?"

"Uh…" Carter sighed.

"Look, Sadie," Carter whipped out a scholar's hat and chalkboard. "Rule number one, things always get more interesting with hats. Rule number two, Anubis is probably thrown into such a deep depression at this point that he'll probably hate you when he finds out you lied to him. Look at it this way," Carter began drawing a diagram on the chalkboard. He first drew a stick figure with two lines on either side of its head, like hair. "See, this is you." Then he drew another stick figure, except this one was a head taller and had a mohawk. "This is Anubis. You lied to him," Carter drew an arrow pointing to another picture of Anubis crouching down with squiggly lines over his head (like in anime, ya'know, with the blue squigglies?) and Osiris/Julius leaning over him, touching his shoulder and trying to comfort him, although he was smiling like an idiot. "This is Anubis being depressed." Then he drew another arrow pointing to Anubis-stick-figure breathing fire over the Sadie-stick-figure, which had a terrified (sorta) expression on her (its) face. "That is the result of you being a total douche. Think about others' feelings more, 'kay?"

"So…all you did was completely re-explain all that you've said to me before you starting drawing. Was there really a point in the whole schoolteacher/chalkboard getup?"

"Nah, I just like drawing stuff. People tend to think I'm the stupid and useless main character with a really cool-beans younger sister who kicks serious ass. I need fangirls!" (If you are a Carter fangirl, it would really boost his confidence if you reviewed. Ha! There it is, the ulterior motive XD) Carter walked over to Sadie and patted her shoulder. "I think you'd better call up Anubis and apologize, before things get anymore complicated."

"How can it get anymore complicated?"

"Well, Anubis could turn homicidal, suicidal, or worse, eat Dad's famous…—ly disgusting brownies. They can't even be called brownies, they are some sort of freaking fossilized poop!"

"Okay, mother, no need to make me relive that one time I had Dad's brownies. It was so traumatizing I think I'm allergic to brownies now," Sadie chuckled. "Ah, the good old days, when Dad wasn't an Egyptian god. I guess there's something to be said about average lives."

"Tell me about it."

"Well," said Sadie, opening her dresser and smiling slightly. "I'm going to get changed, so could you please leave?"
