-Amos Kane-
Annabeth and Sadie hesitated to take on another giant as the cloud of tainted smoke finally disappeared. "Keep focused on the male voice," I instructed to her. "The women are the enemy."
"I know, she just interferes as much as she can," Alyssa admitted through frustration.
Wait, she's hosting Terra? The voice probably belonged to Mars.
Oh good, now's the chance to beat her face in.
Shut up! It isn't her fault that she's hosting the wench! I trusted to be Set.
I said quiet! I snapped as I watched her manipulate the ground under another giant.
A rock got flung towards us by a lucky giant. I barely managed to form my shield, but I took in that it was weaker compared to what it should be. You're going to burn up, Set continued, let me help-
The bolder fell beside me, but it destroyed my shield that protected us. No, the three of you will just fuck with my head if I let you.
Moreover, we will all die if we keep on the sidelines, Set continued. Admit it, you need my assistance.
I sighed out of irritation as I took in a giant managed to dig himself out of the clever trap Alyssa made. I have another way, I reminded as I reviewed the fight we last had with her.
How sure are you that will work? Set asked.
Anything is possible; I have three different versions of you in my head for crying out loud. I now yanked the seven arrows out of my locker. If this proves pointless, then I'm ready to die for it.
Alyssa suddenly took a glance towards me. "Wait, is that-" She started to ask.
"I summon Sekhmet!" I yelled out, the mountainside letting my voice echo, therefore freezing some people to utter confusion as I tossed the arrows.
"Amos, she'll kill us all!" Carter screamed as the arrows orbited around the giant that wormed his way out of the earthy trap.
"What are you doing?" Sadie added to the panic.
As I recalled, the arrows started to spin quickly until they set on fire, spewing smoke in the giant's face until it blazed into the lioness herself, bow and arrows ready as she quickly struck him with ten arrows. "Die!" She screamed.
"That will only buy some time," I quickly explained to Alyssa's paralyzed expression. "She won't attack you, or anyone hosting a pure God at the current moment."
Or maybe just focus on a certain individual wearing red, Set started as I took in her eyes on me.
"You! I killed you!" She quickly started for me.
"That's just fantastic," I dryly noted.
Told you it would backfire, Set started smugly.
"Die!" She quickly rushed towards me, ready for notching another series of arrows at me exactly like last time.
"Stop, you bloodthirsty cat!" I snapped, which she practically froze. "Do you want to be returned as a cow any time soon?"
She hissed in reply. "Then help defend Geb!" I pointed to Alyssa for her to understand. "Or else watch the world die from below our own feet, got it?"
Sekhmet's eyes burned a golden flame as she observed me for a moment. "Or I kill all of you and call it a day? Who are you to hand orders, Kane? I can see past your act, you're desperate due to exhaustion."
"I, Chief Lector Kane, summoned you to defend Geb," I snarled in reply. "If you desire it, I will allow you to kill me after you succeed in your duty."
"What?" Sadie snapped.
Sekhmet grinned to the thought. "You place a large amount of faith into my helping," she purred. "The only one that placed that kind of responsibility on my shoulders was Ra. I will help you, Kane covered in blood. But I will take you up on your offering as well."
"You will fight anyone that wishes harm on Geb and his host?" I asked to make sure.
She bowed in reply, eyes still on me as I saw her lick her lips, "Anything to taste the blood of the Eye of Set."
Creepy and effective, One of the three replied.
I've dealt with Bast, I trust I'm an expert on cats by now, I added smugly back, hoping Set was getting pissed off.
