Sorry about the short chapters, just trying to get things moving.

Thank you for reading!

-Sadie Kane-

A blonde girl and raven-haired boy awaited us on the roof; sand still stuck to their clothes no matter how hard they tried to brush it off. "There will be clothes for each of you in your room." Carter informed as he handed them each a glass of cold water. "And we'll wash your clothes, should be ready for you later on this morning."

I threw the rib at Freak, which he happily snatched in the air. "And who is that?" The Caucasian boy asked.

"The name is Sadie Kane, third most powerful magician, Eye of Isis, the sister of the Pharaoh." I introduced quickly. "And you two are Greeks?"

"Yeah, Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon." The boy extended his arm, which I huffed off.

He shot me a nervous smile and lowered his hand. I may have to travel with them, but I will not bow down to shaking hands with the idiots. "And I'm Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena." The girl added.

"Why are your introductions so long?" Percy asked Carter.

"It's an Egyptian thing." Carter started. "It's a part of you, if you ditch it, you lost part of yourself."

"Well, looks like we have quite a bit to learn from you." Annabeth confirmed.

"That's for sure." Percy added with a nervous smile aimed at me.

Why did Amos suggest I get along with such a moron? "Carter, rooms?" I reminded hastily.

"Right, we'll continue in three hours. I'll show you to your rooms." He gestured them to follow him in.

I sighed as I watched Freak fluff his feathers a bit. "It's going to be a long couple of days from here." I grumbled before heading to bed again.
