Percy began with learning some simple spells like Hah-ri and Hap-tep.
"What's the word for water?" Percy asked
"Maw. Why?" Carter asked
Percy grinned as he took out his sword and said "Maw."
The hieroglyph appeared in the middle of the air in ocean blue and immediately, a huge deluge of water fell down, but Percy held out his hand and suddenly the water came to him, restoring his energy and formed a hurricane.
"Cool." Carter said when the hurricane disappeared.
"Thanks, the reason I asked was because one of my demigod abilities is that I can use the water to recharge my energy." Percy said
"That should come in handy." Carter said with a grin.
Percy was in the library, studying a scroll he'd had one of shabti find him and was learning about Sobek.
He found that like the crocodile god he hated being controlled, but was very loyal when he had a leader strong enough to contain him. He also found that Sobek was strong, also a little hard headed, like him.
"What are you doing?" The girl with Highlights in her hair, who had introduced herself as Sadie asked.
"Studying the path of Sobek, what does it look like?" Percy asked
"Hmm, smart getting to know the god before you starts summoning his magic." Sadie said.
Percy nodded.
He noticed a symbol on the scroll that looked a lot like a jaw. Curious about it, Percy took his wand out and muttered the translation for symbol and it appeared in his hand, glowing blue in the language of magic.
"That's the sacred symbol of Sobek. The Jaw of Sobek." Sadie said.
Percy grinned.
"Come on; let's go get you some practice." Sadie said
Percy nodded.
In the training room, Percy sent his thoughts into the Duat and called on Sobek to give him guidance.
Immediately, the Nile god's memories began to float into his mind.
Percy selected one that mirrored Sobek's hatred of being controlled and latched onto it, forming a temporary bond between himself and the god. Immediately, Percy was filled with power of Sobek. He felt his feet lift off the ground as he found himself encompassed in a three feet tall glowing blue combat avatar, like Carter's, only Percy's had a crocodile head instead of a falcon. His sword and wand had been added as well.
"Impressive." Sadie said.
Percy grinned at his new power.
"Let me go get Carter, he'll want to see this." Sadie said, walking out of the room and returning with Carter.
"Wow, now this will be interesting." Carter said as he summoned his own combat avatar.
The two began to battle.
Use your powers. The voice of Sobek said inside his head.
I am. Percy said to the crocodile god.
I mean your demigod ones. The god explained.
Percy doubted it would work, but he called out maw and the hieroglyph burned in his avatar's chest, coating it in a layer of water.
Percy grinned as he shot water at Carter's avatar, breaching it's defenses until finally, he'd worn the magician down so much, his avatar collapsed.
"Nice move. I didn't think it was possible to coat an avatar with something or even use other magic while sustaining it." Carter said as Percy collapsed his own avatar.
"Sobek suggested it." Percy said
"You mean the god contacted you." Carter said, shocked since besides for Anubis, Osiris and occasionally Bes, the gods had gone silent.
Percy nodded.
"Great." Carter said, trying to contact Horus.
Hello Carter. The war god said in his mind.
About time you guys returned. Seriously, a year without any contact and suddenly the first we get contact with Sobek. Carter asked, giving his old friend a hard time.
Thankfully, Horus knew him well enough to understand sarcasm and laughed.
