"Sam can you check if the mail is here?" My mother yelled from the top of the stairs

"Sure thing." I yelled back

"I got off the couch and put on my black converse. I headed towards the door and stepped out. Little did I know it was a full fledged thunderstorm.

"Swell." I muttered

I walked towards the mail box and took out the mail holding it against my body so it didn't get drenched and I ran back inside.

I sighed once I got inside. I walked up the stairs hearing the thunderstorm beat against the windows and hearing the rain drops hit the wooden stairs and gave my mom the mail.

"Sam, there's a letter for you. From Sadie." My mother informed me

"Oh those must be the plane tickets." I responded

I took the letter from her hands and walked towards my room. The blue and green walls looked darker for some reason. Pictures of Sadie, Liz, Emma, and I covered the walls. A couple of scattered photos of Sarah and I were on them too.

I walked towards my closet and changed out of my wet clothes. I plopped down on my bed and ripped open the letter with my finger. I took out the letter and started to read it.

"Dear Sam,

Hi. I told you the tickets would get here today. Never underestimate me. Well the tickets are for five days from now. So get off your lazy butt and pack. Yes, I know it's a one way ticket but truth be told I don't know when you'll want to return back to your family so I got a two one way tickets. I've already spoken with your mom about it and since she has some business trips for the gods know how long, she is fine with you staying as long as you want. I will not be meeting you at the airport due to some certain reasons, don't worry you'll soon understand. Instead a close friend of my parents will be meeting you and taking you to where I live now. Ask around for an 'Aunt Kitty', she's not really our aunt we just call her that. Who ever your bringing tell them to get off their lazy butt and pack. Oh, make sure him/her parents are okay with staying for, as again, for the gods know how long. Well the business part is taken care of. Well we didn't get to speak for long on the phone, and I'm pretty sure you want to know what's going on. Well some things can't be told but shown so I'm leaving those parts out of this. For the parts that can be told are so much that you might get overwhelmed so I'm giving you the basics. I have met so many people and made so many friends and new enemies. I'm more open minded now. Carter has finally become a teenager and got a girlfriend, thanks to yours truly. Her name is Zia Rashid. She's really cool which is very ironic due to certain reasons, that you will soon know once you get here. Carter and I are pretty much in charged of the household, which everyone understands, even the college aged ones. New surprises everywhere, good and bad. Don't over think all of this to much, everything will soon be explained. Anyway, as I have stated before, get off your lazy but and pack and tell the person your bringing along also. I have really missed you, the group does not feel complete without you, and I miss my partner in crime. Can't wait till you land and get here.

Love,

Sadie

P.S, please keep an open mind and if you want to understand everything that will be told to you catch up on your Egyptian mythology, even if you just skimmed them the more you know the better. PLEASE keep an open mind and tell that to the person you are bringing. The tickets are in the envelope. Love ya."

I looked in the envelope and saw the two plane tickets. I put back the letter in the envelope and placed it on my bedside table. I looked around for my phone and soon started calling Sarah.

Ring…Ring….Ring…..Ring…Ri-

"Hello" I heard Sarah say

"Hey Sarah." I greeted

"Hey Sam, so why are you calling?"

"I got the plane tickets."

"Oh, so what is it coach, first class?"

"Sarah it's coach, we only had enough for two coach tickets, remember."

"Oh, you were serious about that. Anyway, how long are we staying over there?"

"As long as we want. Well, I want. You have to ask your parents, my mom has business trips for who knows how long and she's fine with me staying over there for as long as I want."

"Okay, my parents are cool with it. You know how they are. So, anything else?"

"We leave in five days, so start packing and I have been told to catch up on Egyptian mythology, for some 'certain' reasons, and that the more we know the better. Since, apparently there is some weird stuff going on that relates to it."

"Okay, then. So, I'm going to start packing and listen to videos about mythology. You start packing also."

"Yes, ma'am. Bye Sarah."

"Bye Sam."

I hung up and placed my phone on my bedside table next to Sadie's letter. I walked towards my desk and turned on my laptop. As, I was waiting for it to turn on I walked downstairs to the basement and looked for suitcases. I found two big dark blue suitcases and carried them to my room. I placed them on the floor and zipped them open. I noticed that my laptop turned on, I clicked the little internet icon and searched for videos on mythology after I found one I clicked on it and waited it to load. I clicked on the speakers and headed to my closet and started packing.

"The most common known gods of Egyptian mythology are Isis and Horus….."

I started packing and listening to videos about Egyptian mythology. What I couldn't understand was why we need to know this but if I'm going to understand more about Sadie I need to learn it.

"Isis and Horus are the common known gods of Egyptian mythology. In some stories the are portrayed as mother and son but mostly know as sister and brother….."

"ZIA!" I yelled through the hallways

I come to the doors to the library and there she was surrounded by bunch of scrolls.

"Zia! There you are." I sighed

"I've been here all along Sadie. What do you want?" Zia said

"It's six."

"What about six?"

"It's time for us to get ready for out double date which is in one hour."

A wave of recognition went across Zia's face.

"Let me just organize these scrolls."

"No time for that we'll do it later. Now, come on."

I grabbed her hand and dragged her up to my room, where Liz and Emma were waiting for us. Liz and Emma found out that today was our first date so they offered to help by helping us get ready. Emma was helping by picking out our outfits which she went shopping for and didn't come back for hours. Liz was helping with makeup and hair.

"Okay, listen up. I need a half hour to pick your clothes. I want both of you in a shower and coming out in the next fifteen minutes. Sadie you can use your own shower. Zia you use the shower next door. Now MOVE." Ordered Emma

Zia ran out of the room and, I guess, went to take a shower next door. I ran to my shower and took of my clothes and took a shower. In, the next fifteen minutes I was shaved and cleaned to the brink of having no dead skin on me. I really have to stop listening to Carter when he's in one of his geek modes.I stepped out and put on the white robe that was hanging on the wall.

"That took you 10 minutes. Good, now sit next to Zia and Liz will blow dry your hair, I'm putting on the last finishing touches to your outfits." Emma said never moving her eyes from the closet.

I sat next to Zia, who was in the same robe as me and sat in one of the desk chairs that Liz must've brought in here.

"Okay, girls don't move and your hair will be perfect." Liz ordered

I closed my eyes and let Liz do her magic. Not really but you know what I mean. I must've zoned out cause I noticed that Liz was spraying hairspray on Zia and I.

"Done. In only fifteen minutes." Liz exclaimed.

"Okay, now be careful and do NOT look in the mirror till you have your clothes on. Sadie on the left side of your bed is your clothes and Zia on the right side are yours. Now chop chop."

I looked at my outfit and I could've kissed Emma. She picked out a white long sleeve shirt and a black skirt with a gold belt that goes with it. I loved it. I started to change into my undergarments and soon quickly changed onto the perfect outfit that Emma picked out. Once I was done I looked at what Zia was wearing and she looked absolutely beautiful.

Her dark hair was in curls and it looked longer just below her shoulder cascading down perfectly. Liz put some eyeliner on her and her amber eyes popped gorgeously she had no blush on and her tan skin just blended in perfectly. She wore a blood red long sleeve shirt that complimented her curves and chest, a black skirt like mine but instead of a gold belt her belt was white.

"Sadie you look beautiful." Zia complimented me

"So do you, you look absolutely beautiful Zia." I complimented back

"Okay, I'm back. Ah aren't I wonderful! You two look perfect and so would your dates, if I must say so myself." Emma said suddenly coming into my room.

"Where were you? I must add that yes you are wonderful." I said

"I went to help out your dates pick out outfits to wear."

"Oh. Are they ready?"

"Yep, they are waiting for you downstairs."

"Okay, ready Zia?"

"Ready, Sadie."

"Let's go."

We both headed out and towards downstairs. Where my first date with Anubis would begin.

Is it good that I can feel my heart pounding in my chest?

So the next chapter is their first double date. School has been hectic. I'm sorry that this is late. Anyway if any of you have any ideas to what should happen on there date feel free to tell me and I'll make sure that all the credit goes to you. Thank you to all my reviewers you guys are awesome! Oh and has anyone read the Serpents Shadow? I have already and to say that the book was amazing is an understatement it was more than awesome it was…. there are no words to describe it. I won't give out any spoilers to the people who haven't read it. But has anyone notice that Rick keeps hinting about 'other gods', 'other magic', and 'other forces' my friend and I are like 'do a crossover already'. Which is possible since well the people who have read know what happened and someone wasn't taken care of. So there is the possibility of a crossover and continuing of The Kane Chronicles but most likely like a sequel series like The Heroes of Olympus. If you have any thoughts on The Serpents Shadow feel free to pm me and we can go talking about it for hours.

Same as always 3-6 review for next upload
