Chapter 7-Sadie's POV
I'd had better days. Naturally Jacques decided that carving my arm into a hunk of raw meat was not enough. He sent to serving girls with knives to make my arms match. This time it was more awful. I could feel the cold metal, stirring around in my arm. I screamed every time it moved. I was losing a lot of blood. I cried as they wrapped mummy bandages around my arm. I just could not breathe. They had put me back to sleep. I think that smoke fills up my lungs. I have to gasp for air but every time I move it hurts, so I scream. Then the nightmares start. I don't think Walt is coming for me. I was nothing to him.
I was all alone.
Walt's POV
I swear Scar-man is going to pay. You just do not do that to a girl. I look at Carter, who has assumed the full role of Pharaoh. Felix is helping his penguins use machine guns. Julian is practicing with his sword. Jaz is assembling her medical kit, and Cleo is writing magic spells on her arms. Zia is throwing fireballs at the statue of Thoth. We would be so much more threatening if we had a speaker of divine words. But we have to save our Speaker, who happens to be Sadie. Carter calls me over. The forces of the 21st Nome assemble in the boat pulled by our griffin, Freak. He takes off. This will be our only chance.
We Cannot Fail.
Sorry for the short chapter.
