whats in the box

At the Kane mansion

A dark man with an old fashioned robe went stomping up the long flight of stairs with a woman with a leopard skin leotard "Bast, aren't you supposed to be with Sadie and not at this mansion?" he said stopping with his arms crossed and turning towards her

Bast gave him a sharp glare but stopped in front of him "she's at that mortal school and plus her mortal grandparents kicked me out of the house while she's out; so I decided to visit this place"

The man started walking back up the steps until he noticed that Bast wasn't following him "what now Bast?" he asked turning back around

Bast was looking out towards the sea not paying any attention to him "did you hear that, Amos?" She asked as the wind blew her long hair back

Amos became a little mad at that question "your hearing is more advanced than mine Bast, so I can't hear everything you he…" he was cut off by Bast running down the steps towards the sea

His anger turned to concerned when Bast disappeared into the darkness "Bast must've sensed trouble, seems I'm getting too old" he said to himself running down the stairs

Bast arrived at the shore in little to no time looking out into the watery abyss "what am I looking for, I know I heard a baby crying a second ago, but I can't smell or see anything" she thought still looking

All of a sudden, a boat with a big rectangular box appeared right in front of her which caused her to jump back and her hair became long and puffy from shock "hiss, hiss"

Then Amos came running towards Bast only to find her licking on one foot "what happened?" he asked out of breath

Bast looked up now rubbing her foot with one hand and with the other pointing towards the boat "that boat landed on my foot" she said going back to her licking

Amos was holding in a smile which Bast noticed and didn't like "you shouldn't have stood so close to the shore than"

Bast glared at Amos while rubbing her foot "no, I mean that boat just appeared out of thin air and landed on my foot"

Amos looked at the boat and started walking towards it. He started to walk around it and put his hand over the box "your right Bast, this boat is enchanted and there seems to be something in this big box"

Bast started limping towards Amos "what's inside than?" she asked sniffing the box

Amos looked at the dark sky and started to chant unknown words "let's get it inside first" he said lifting his hand causing the box to float

Bast sniffed the air and nodded her head "I agree, I smell a storm coming"

Inside the mansion (on a rainy day)

Bast and Amos stared at the box while a baboon started to sniff the unknown item "we should open it" said Bast walking towards the box

"Wait Bast, we don't know if it's a trap" said Amos stopping her

"So you let the monkey sniff it?" said Bast which caused the baboon to scream

"Sorry, I mean baboon" she corrected which caused it to bark

"I figured he'll open it for us" he said which caused him to scream and slap the box

At that moment, Bast's ear started to twitch and moved the baboon out of the way. She removed the lid and started to hear screaming and crying

Amos ran to the box only to find Bast carrying a little baby in her arms "it's okay little one, no one's gonna hurt you" she said in her lightest voice

Amos became shocked, at first, than he looked inside the box and pulled out the letters

Once the infant stopped crying, Bast looked at Amos trying to read two letters "what do they say?"

"I don't know it's in Greek" he said showing her one

Bast widened her eyes in shock when she read the name at the end of the letter "I recognize that name, this is bad; very, very bad" she said standing up and walking around the box with the baby on her arms

Amos became concerned with Bast's antics "why, who is it, and you can read Greek?"

Bast stopped in her tracks "I can't read Greek, but I recognize that name. It's Sparta" she said sitting with the baby in her arms

"And who's Sparta, is he one of those Greek gods?"

"Try Greek titan, the Greek gods' youngest brother. But I thought he's in Tartarus" she said biting one of her nails

"Why would you think that, and what's Tartarus?"

Bast, with one free hand slapped her forehead in shame "in all those times you've been in museums and you don't know a thing about Greek Mythology! (sigh) It's a Greek and Roman version of the underworld; and he is known as the gatekeeper of Tartarus, but it's not recorded in history. Only the gods know and fear him"

"Fear?" he said raising an eyebrow

"He's known as the strongest titan in the world. Even stronger than his father, Kronos, this is why he was sent to Tartarus, and when the war against the titans started; he went to his brethren's side"

"How'd you two meet?" asked Amos sitting down next to the baboon on the sofa

The baby started to stir and pull on Bast's long hair "what's wrong little one" she asked putting one finger/claw on his chin

The baby was about ready to cry, until he grabbed her finger and stuck it in his mouth and started nibbling "seems like its hungry Bast" said Amos with a smile

Bast looked at Amos in shame and turned her body so her backs to Amos and removed a shoulder strap of her leotard and positioned the baby in front of her "it's a he Amos. I did change his loin cloth" she said wincing a little

"Diaper and you can breast feed?" he asked turning towards the kitchen

"I'm a cat goddess Amos; this wouldn't be the first time I feed little kittens. A child is no different" she said putting back the shoulder strap

"So what are we gonna do about the child?" asked Bast turning back around

Amos walked out of the kitchen with a plate of pork and a box of cheerio's "we, if I'm not mistaken, you know this Sparta. Not I, so obviously the letter with his name on it, is to you. But, since you can't read it, I'll try to translate them. In the mean time, you take care of the child while watching over my niece"

"What! How am I gonna hide a baby without Sadie noticing" she said a bit shocked

"Can't you turn him into a cat for the time being?"

Bast grew a smile with that question "I can turn him into a kitten foe a short amount of time and when Sadie goes to the mortal school, I can take care of him when he a child again. Brilliant Amos, who knew you actually had a brain" she said which made Amos angry

"Just go back to the house before Sadie does" he said throwing a piece of pork to a white crocodile and the box of cheerio's to the baboon

"Alright" she said creating a portal of sand and walking through with the baby in her arms
