Chapter 5-Stadie's POV
I struggle to wake up. I can feel the energies of strange men walking all around me. All of a sudden, my head is filled with horrible noises. I struggle in an effort to open my eyes. It feels like my eyelids weight 1000 pounds. The noises get louder, so that I can finally figure out what they are. The screams are so real. What are they doing to my friends? Carter, Walt, Khufu, Cleo, Felix, Zia and Jaz. Their screams are so full of agony. I have to help them. I continue trying to wake up.
I feel a cool hand rested on my face. It strokes up and down, from my eyebrow to my chin. I don't like it. It feels scary and unfamiliar. The hand moves away, just as the horrible screams start again. I can feel my body twitching, but there is nothing I can do to stop it. So I just continue with my failed effort to block the horrible sounds out of my head.
Oh Walt. Where are you?
Walt's POV
I sit at my computer, typing things in the Google Search Bar.
Are you sure Sadie was underwater?
Never been more certain of anything.
I keep typing. The search comes up blank yet again.
"Why does nothing work?" I punch the wall.
"OWW"
Not your smartest idea, Walt.
I can feel Anubis's power surging through my hand. I sigh as I regain the feeling in my hand.
"Argh"
"Thanks for the package Khufu."
Carter walks into my room.
"There is a new DVD. Come on." I gesture to my bed.
He sits down while I put the disk into my TV. This one is nothing new. All we see is the Scar-man stroking Sadie's face. As soon as he pulls his hand away, she starts to twitch. She is literally gasping for breath. What in Ma'at are they doing to her?
"Do you think we can save her?"
I'm confused for a second.
"What?"
"Do you think we can save her?"
I sometimes forget that Carter is the same age as me. He takes care of all the kids in the Nome, teaches with the utmost patience, and never takes a risk with anyone's life. If something happened to Sadie, he would feel like he failed her as a big brother. The poor boy was only sixteen, but he had responsibility that would crush a god.
"We WILL save her Carter. Trust me, if he harms her, Anubis will blow him so deep into the duat, he will be gone for 2 millennia."
I realized that that was the truth. No one will ever hurt Sadie Kane.
I second that.
Shut up Anubis.
Hope you like this chapter. Please review.
