Song: Jacob's Prayer by Emile Mosseri

         We walked the halls in silence. Nothing had been said to the either of us as we walked side by side, questioning as to where he was leading me. "Do you remember the first time we met?" Osiris spoke up. I let my mask fade away so I could be able to talk to him as myself. I never liked using my voice changer when it came to talking to him. It always felt as though it was never really me talking in that suit, it was always Reaper speaking, which is just another one of his soldier. "Partially, all I remember was the arguments between the council and some of the other gods...I knew you never talked to me, didn't bother to give me a passing glance till I was older..." "I suppose I was harsh on you wasn't I?...I've always regretted how I acted towards you back then, you were only a child...I just...I was afraid..." he stopped walking, his head slightly down as he looked towards the floor. His eyes never met my gaze. "...of me?" "It wasn't that I was afraid of you...I was afraid of what may happen when you grew older..." he looked back up and began to walk once again. As we came upon a doorway, he stopped once again in front of it, hesitant to open it. He sighed softly as he pushed the creaky wooden doors. I slightly gasp as I realized to where we were. "My old room...I thought-" "I told you that it was going to be turned into another weaponry room because I knew you would have tried to stay here while you were training with Anubis...the day you left...I never felt these halls so empty. I couldn't bare to watch this room go...I can't remember how many times I would always find myself wondering back in here, questioning if I was ever doing anything right for you..." I watched as he walked over to a chair in the corner of the room, which was a couple of feet away from my old bed. "I remember Taweret would sit here every time and tell you stories, I only came in after you had gone to sleep. I would check up on you to see how you were doing, Taweret was the only one you had more of a softer spot towards...then again she was your mother in some ways..." I looked around my room, seeing how dusty it was, remembering all the fun times I had playing in this room. "...so why didn't you try and be there for me? Why shut me out?" He sat down and sighed. "...mortals are not very capable to comprehend such things or beings. Knowing that we exist, having avatars to help us protect this world...there was no telling on what could happen if people believed such a thing. And I was afraid that if someday you decided to leave or you just...decided you couldn't handle being with us...that you were going to tell the world...so I never paid much attention until I truly realized the tragedy you had gone through, realizing that if it weren't have been for that one boy...we may never had crossed paths." I looked at him with a bit of sadness. After what Anubis had told me, I suppose I thought Osiris would have suppressed these feelings until I got old enough...well old enough in his eyes. "I asked Anubis to train you because I knew that if you decided to leave one of these days, I wouldn't be sure how well any of us would have been at protecting you. I should have told him to change his tactics, not be to harsh on you...but every time I thought about going down there...all I saw was a child who isn't able to defend herself." He got up from his chair and walked over to me. "What about now?...do you think I'm still not able to defend for myself?" I saw has he smiled softly at me, his eyes had never seemed light. Unlike his usual gaze where it could make a man crumble just from one look. "From what I've seen...you are more than capable enough. You are an amazing young woman, and I know that you will do great things in this world...but to me...you'll always be my little bird." I smiled softly as I heard the nickname that was given to me by Khonshu. When I was growing up, Hathor was teaching me how to whistle in different pitches, and soon enough I learned quicker than I thought I would. I would walk the hall's whistling almost like a bird would. When Osiris had decided to do a gathering for a dinner, I didn't stop. I would also keep to myself when it came to those things anyways, never speak when I wasn't spoken to, fidget with my hands, or talk to Taweret and Khonshu. And that was when Khonshu came up with my nickname, which became ironic to me since I became his avatar. I looked up at Osiris before I gave him a hug for the first time. I felt his arms wrap around me and slightly squeezed me. I never thought this day would come, the day that he and I would have seen eye to eye, the day we actually embraced for once. I figured it would have been on my death bed that this moment would have been real. "I have something for you." I felt him move back slightly as he had broke the embrace. I watched as he reached in small bag that he has on his hip and handed me a small pouch. I gave him a small look of confusion at this and hesitantly grabbed it. I opened the soft brown bag and poured out whatever was inside onto my hand. I slightly gasped when I saw what had dropped out, it was gorgeous, the way I shimmered in the small lighting of the room. A necklace of the eye of Osiris. It was a gold chain with his symbol at the bottom of it. The crossed shape attached to the half circle which made a u shape, along with the other u shape that wasn't as large as the other. And to finish it all off, the dot in the middle to symbolize the eye. I smiled at him before I went to put it on. I looked down at the jewelry for a moment before looking back up to Osiris. "It's perfect...thank you." "You're welcome...I believe we must be going, Marc is still waiting on you." I sighed at his words. "I'm sure you'll be fine living there, he isn't a bad man." I gave him a confused look. "You called him an ill man when they tried to tell you-" "let me rephrase that then, I know NOW that he isn't a bad man...in fact, you and him are more alike than you truly realize." I rolled my eyes slightly at his words as we exited my old room. "Me and him are nothing alike." He laughed slightly at my comment. "Well, for starters, you're both very stubborn. He was in the military and much like yourself, you're also a soldier of sorts. Both of you wouldn't back down from a fight even if it killed you...and I know you don't like to hear this but I believe there's some hope that you two would have some sort of connection at some point during this mission." Once we reached the wooden doors, we came to a stop. "Just please don't kill him." I shrugged slightly before summoning my mask. "Can't promise much but I can promise I'll try and hold back." Osiris gave me an annoyed looked as he shook his head slightly before opening the doors.
