A/N: The spell used in paragraph 5 is a real spell that was found in Chapter 6 of the Book of the Dead.
Also, some Filipino is used later and there will be a translation at the bottom. Translation gotten from PurpleRose328

Hello. I am Charisse Aguiluz, following the Path of Tefnut. I know, weird choice, but I don't really get to choose. It's whatever magic I specialize in. I was just SO excited! I was ready to kick some butt, and even readier for my training to start paying off!

I absolutely LOVE my group! Ariadne Roxas following Geb, Will Hanson following Shu (I hate to admit it but, I was leaping with joy when he's going to join us. Why you ask? Oh, well I had this tiny bit feeling towards him), Janie Malloy following Serqet (She's my BFF! And I also treated her like my own younger sister), Ace Morte following Anubis, Joshua following Shu, Revie following Nephthys, Daniela Trvian following Isis, Caliga following Set, and me!

Another thing I was happy about was the fact that we were going to my home, the Philippines! I really hoped to see my family there, but I knew I probably wouldn't. Still, I had missed the Philippines. I was also worried. If Carter, Sadie, and Amos were sending this many kids to one place, it meant there was trouble. I tried to imagine what kind of trouble there could be in the Philippines.

"Hey, Ace? Can I borrow a list of what we have to pack? I lost mine..." I asked. She nodded and handed it to me.

-Wand
-Staff
-2 pairs of lenin outfits
- Wax for Shabti. Spell: "O, these shabtis, if one counts (me) off for (my) duties - now indeed an obstacle is implanted for (against) me there with -, as a man at his duties; if one counts off for you at any time which has be passed there make arable the fields, to turn over the shores, to transport by boat the sand of the West (and) of the East, 'here you are' you shall say."

I was glad that Carter/Sadie had included the spell to bring the Shabti to life, as I always forget that one.

I gathered my group and we stood in front of our artifact, the Book of the Dead. I know it was a pretty important artifact! We stepped through the portal cautiously after Sadie opened it.

I think the worst part about coming out of the portal was knowing exactly where we were. We had landed in my bedroom, funnily enough. I wondered if Sadie had done that purposely. But whatever the case, I recognized the purple walls plastered with posters of Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift, my favorite singers/actress ever!

It looked exactly as it did the day I had left; my bed was still unmade, my unwanted make-up sprawled across the floor, clothes I didn't want covered the floor like it was another layer.

Everyone was confused, and I figured it'd be best to explain, "Guys, I don't know how, but we're in my bedroom. Don't freak out, and quiet down!"
Janie looked at me positively astonished. Soon, everyone was. I tried to act calm and pretend like this wasn't a big deal, but it really, truly it was! "I guess you should be the leader. There has to be some reason we came to this spot," Joshua said quietly.

I nodded in agreement.

"Nay! Nandito na po ako sa bahay!" I exclaimed as I popped my head out of the purple door. It was so obvious that I love purple. My mother rushed climbing the stairs and going to my room with a hug smile on her face, "Anak, na miss kita ng sobra! Teka, sino ang mga kasama mo?" I gulped and looked behind at my confused partners. "Mga kaibigan ko po, ina," I explained. "Mga salamangkero din po sila."

My mother smiled at them warmly and ushered all of us through my door into the living room. She served out some pandesal (a type of bread) and coffee.

"Kumain. Sigurado ako gutom na gutom na kayo sa inyong mahabang paglalakbay," my mother told us. My friends looked at the snack confused except for Joshua and Will who's enjoying their selves. I rolled my eyes. Boys.

"You're supposed to dip the bread into the coffee," I whispered.

"How do you say 'no thanks' in Filipino?" Danelia asked me.

"Salamat na lang po," I replied with a laugh. "Also, add 'Busog pa po kami' to be respectful and polite."

"Salamat na lang po, Mrs. Aguiluz," everyone (except for Joshua and Will who looked at them confused) said together. "Busog pa po kami."

"Oh, come on! Pandesal tastes good!" Will complained being the food lover he was.

"I agree with Will," Joshua stated. "Why don't you all taste it?"

Before the others could say they don't want to, my mother laughed loudly. I joined the laugh. But it wasn't loud enough to cover up the rumbling we heard in the distance. We all pulled out our wands. It means there was danger.

Translations:

Mom! I'm home!
Honey, I missed you so much! Wait, who are those kids?
They're my friends, mom. They're magicians too.
Let's eat. You must be all hungry from your long journey.
No thanks. We're not hungry.

A special thanks to PurpleRose328 for correcting the poor tagalog I had before. Let us all learn a lesson from this, Google Translate cannot be trusted!
