A/N Ok, I just loved that cliffhanger. I hope those who love Setne would be happy for his cameo in the story. Hope you will like it.


THE BREAK PART 2

Sadie's pov

" What Won't you welcome me? " Setne said. Before anyone could reply or do something I threw a piece of a rope towards him and said " Tas". But before the rope could reach him he vanished. Walt caught me as I stumbled back. Dammit, I really should not have used so much power. For a few minutes, silence suspended in the air like a fog. Then everyone, especially the Greeks, started speaking altogether. On top of them, Lord Zeus was shouting at everyone for silence. Carter whispers in my ears "At brunch take Walt for refreshments while Zia and I go talk to the Greek gods about the breach in their security." I whisper back "Fine but don't forget we still have to contact Brooklyn house to tell them what is happening." At Carter's hit by lightening face I could not help but giggle making him glare at me and Zia and Walt to raise their eyebrows at our antics curiously. " Ok fine you will contact 21st nome to tell them we are safe.", Carter says in a low voice " Holy Osiris, we haven't told them yet," Walt says while Zia also gives an alarming look making me laugh more. Then Carter shouts " Ok everyone, The show ends. I believe everyone must be hungry so let us move towards the refreshment tables.

Everyone shakes their heads in agreement and starts moving towards the said place making Lord Zeus gape at them angrily.

Dementer's Garden.

Walt pulled me towards the buffet table and said " Ok what is the plan."Looking at the table piled up with food my stomach grumbled. Walt smiled and said "I think I know now. Let's eat first and then try to communicate." I smiled and turned towards the buffet and started filling my plate with food. Walt did the same. We searched for a table only to find many of them were taken.

Carter and Zia were seated with Lord Zeus, Lady Hera, Lady Athena, Dad, Horus, Isis, Ra and Bast. And it seemed like quite an intense discussion was going on.

We found our seats on another smaller table with Bes, Mom, Chiron, Lady Hestia and the fates.

On one of the large tables were Lady Aphrodite, Lord Apollo, Lady Artemis, Lord Hermes, Lady Demeter, Lord Poseidon, Lord Hades, Lord Dionysus, Lord Hephaestus, Lord Ares, Set, Nephthys and Throth (who had his nose in a book which seemed to be about fishes.)

The demigods were on another large table. Both the large table were making quite a noise. But nobody seemed to mind.

Lady Hestia was a very friendly and honest goddess. " So..." Walt started awkwardly, "You wish to say something child," Chiron asked amused. He nudged me. " .oh yes " I cleared my throat "you see our friends in the 21st nome are kind of unaware of our whereabouts and would most likely be worried about us. So we were thinking if there is any way to reach them, even in letters it will help. " Chiron laughs and says "Of course, there is a way to communicate. we have our goddess of communication Lady Iris. " Then he turns towards the demigods' table and calls Annabeth and Thalia. To them, he says "Sadie and Walt wish to send a message to their friends, show them how to call Lady Iris." Then he turns to us and says "Go with them, they will assist you."

At this, we agree on the idea and ask Annabeth and Thalia to lead us on. They look away at us suspiciously but agree to the suggestion and lead us to a fountain. I give a questioning look to Walt and he just shrugs.

Then Annabeth takes out a big coin made up of what seems like gold and tosses it in the water and prays" Oh Lady Iris, goddess of rainbows" At that I try to stifle a laugh and Walt looks amused "Please allow us to talk to..", Thalia whispers in my ears" say the name and place of your friend to whom you wish to talk" I think about it and then say "Jazz, 21 st Nome. "And it shows a picture of our house very similar to the time after the magicians attacked it during our journey to find Ra. poor Throth. His statue was upside down with multicoloured toes on full display.

I saw Jazz and most of our initiates preparing for what seemed like war. I look at Walt and see him looking at me helplessly. I shout at Jazz and she looks at me as if she has seen a ghost. Then she says" You can't deceive us with your plans Setne. Don't you dare think we will fall into your trap? We know you are not Sadie and Walt. " I gave my Sadie-glare at her and I can see gears turning in her head. "It's you, Sadie. " "Yep, and good to see the house in such excellent shape. " I gesture towards the scattered pillows and flying statue and she blushes and says "I-I-I am sorry but once we noticed that you and Walt have not come either for refreshments or for TV time we kind of turned the house upside down and searched for you. Then we found that Zia, Carter and Amos are also missing we all panicked thinking you all have been abducted by someone." "Oh, we are sorry. We didn't want you all to worry about us. We are fine and even though we did have a run-in with Setne but now everything is fine."

Cleo asked hopefully" Could you catch him? And where did you run in? Where are you? What is happening, Sadie? I saw some lights in the library when you were there and even though white is not a colour of magic I thought you were doing some spell. Only when you vanished did I realize that something has happened..." I cut her rambling off and says" Don't worry Cleo nothing bad has happened to us. Only boring. "

" You are reading books." " Yep, so long story short we are invited by another existing pantheon i.e. the Greeks and Romans to read the books of our adventures as a peace offering. Which is a good thing except for the reading of course. So anyway we are safe and fed here so no worries." They sigh at my explanation. Walt adds"That doesn't give you a pass out of cleaning the mess you made. We want it in the same shape we left when we come back. understood. "Julius asks " All that is fine but when are you returning."At that, everyone nods their heads. "We will return as soon as we finish the books. so hope our good luck. "At that, Everyone laughs and says their goodbyes and the message ends.

I turn around to see Annabeth and Thalia looking at us oddly. "You didn't give them your whereabouts. " "Was that necessary? " "True," she says with a genuine smile. "So who exactly is this Setne you were talking about? " I look at Walt thinking how much we can tell them only to see him evaluating the same thoughts.

In the end, we decide to tell them everything. I turn towards the demigods and tell them about Setne including the fact that we might need their help in future to capture him.

At the end of our tale, they are shaking their heads in agreement but before they could say anything Lord Zeus announce the end of the break and Zia comes to our side to ask how everything went. So we don't get the chance to further talk about it. we all move back to the throne room for further readings.
