~"I still remember that night when I woke up hearing Nephthys crying on the floor. She was apologising to me and begged me to kill her... I knew Sehmet didn't whisper jealousy to you non-other the truth of your wife's and my husband's betrayal, and your only child isn't yours. Nephthys told me everything, but I didn't end her life; I left her to suffer for what she and Osiris had done... I- I saw you too together you and Osiris... I was betrayed by those I loved, the people I trusted; I thought of the child as one's love; I thought if get rid of him, all this distraction would end... that's why I made a deal with Nephthys...Osiris son... I made a ritual that no one gets his way... Nephthys her creve to death, your wish for your family, Osiris crave for you, and I should not have Osiris..." Isis told the story in an angry tone.~

~"You cursed yourself on purpose? Because you couldn't forgive yourself for loving Osiris. How could you restrict that bastard after finding out the truth? You said to hate him, yet you give birth to his children," Seth said in a worried tone but regarded all that happening. I fell to the ground in shock. "You give Osiris your body to achieve your goals, so why can't I? What's the fuss anyway? We are a married couple. I have to use everything to my advantage, don't I? Getting revenge is my top priority, after all." Isis said, "Revenge! You say you gave birth to them so you could have revenge on me!" Seth yelled. Isis was silent for some seconds and just looked at Seth," I told you already! You and I will never get what we want, and the more we crave, the more we lose. How does it feel to end your era of rule with your end? It's alright, though. I will take everything you took away from me! Even if the curse is stopping me from being the ruler I'll just use my son as vengeance!" After that, I fell into the shadows. Everything was black. I couldn't believe what I had just heard; they didn't even notice my fall. They just continued fighting... Osiris was a monster, a disgusting monster, and he was my father...~

~Good thing Seth outsmarted him...~

~By the time I woke up I heard Seth choking and Isis remaining calm with her magic fading off " Morning is drawing near if you still think of me as family for the third match... do as you please if you want to win then win if you want to lose then lose, I am not saying we will go without fight what I am saying is... let's both try our very best to achieve our own separate goals..." With that said she picked me up healed me and told me it was time for me to prepare for my best we walked off ignoring Seth's confused questions...~

I was getting ready, and I bumped into Horus. "Hi, Horus..." I told him I was exhausted because I hadn't slept the whole night "You look exhausted. Did you sleep? What happened?" He asked, worried. "No, not in the slightest because of the match and the other thing, you won't believe me... I could say the same for you, you look like shi-" he didn't let me finish "god of distraction was with you too?" He asked, "Yes, you could say that. What did she tell you?" I asked "She told me that my mom isn't what I think she is... what did she tell you?" He asked, "Same thing... it doesn't matter anyway... Come on, we have a match to win, and Hours, try your best. There is a throne waiting for you." I replied and we headed off to Maat temple.~

THE TEMPLE OF MAAT

~" As it stands, Horus,y/n, and Seth had both one win and one loss; this third match determines the final winner of the competition. I shall choose the final event. The third match will be... hunting..." Maat said~

~With that, all the gods were arguing about what we hunt, and that this challenge would be too easy for Seth. They mentioned hippos, crocodiles, birds, and even human beings... only the sun god Ra was smirking at this point. "Please, this is the hunting of god. There is no point hunting animals... but monsters, on the other hand..." Sun god said, that they could bring monsters from Duat with the help of Osiris unit Seth spoke breaking ground with his spear weapon "This is the hunting of gods we are talking about I can't believe you are all bickering about hunting animals and monsters expect when there is an abundance of prey sitting right here" Seth said pointing spear to gods making it obvious that he what to hunt gods, everyone gasped only sun god smiled but horus tried to stop Seth telling him this is to not war this is competitions but Maat was only one that can calm seth down by telling him that every god must be included in competitions even Anubis and Nephthys. After that, the duat approved the sending monsters, but Isis, my mother, said we are not fully gods yet, so all gods decided that Seth should get a penalty, but Seth also had a request. That one who hunts the other one down will be granted instant victory... Isis yelled at Seth, telling him that wasn't fair, but I only looked at Horus, and he nodded to me as we both yelled, "Deal!" Isis just screamed our names. Maat said that Seth couldn't use his sand power and weapon and that he needed someone to bring him a weapon if it broke...~

~We all heard, "I do it." It was Anubis but wasn't he injured? Seth flies with Sand Ower to Anubis yelling at him to go home maat also tells him to go because he can participate in his state even me myself and Isis try to convince him to leave but he convinces everyone he can if Seth doesn't break his weapon... isis, Maat and Thoth went inside to discuss, even other gods agreed to Anubis being the one but not Seth he was yelling that Anubis can't because of his injuries and that he is the youngest "but uncle the youngest one here is me." I corrected him "Zip it" he yelled at me.~
🌸
~Maat has come with the news that Anubis will carry weapons.~

*** Sometime later after me and Hours had killed many monsters ***

~ I saw Seth trying to break the sword "Why can't you destroy the sword?" I asked. Seth looked at me. "The heck! " he quickly stood up, and our masks kissed again. "It must mean something to you, but it's cursed, looks like it's getting heavier... that's why you didn't come immediately at me and Horus." I said "Stop being smartass, you are in this competition as well. Where the f is your odd brother anyway?" Seth asked. I looked at him with a smirk on my face " Good thing you reminded me... I would look up if I were you..." I said, smiling. "The f-" Seth said, letting go of the cursed sword, looking up and seeing Horus flying, launching a fist at him and kicking him in the head. Seth quickly stood up and began to fight. After some time, Seth started using sand. I sickly took his sword. It was really hard, but I killed as many monsters as I could unit there were none, but the sword was now really heavy, and it didn't have an edge... that's when Horus flew and took the sword out of my hand "Hey! I was using it for monsters; it's my weapon!" I yelled off course I had to break mine, but Horus ignored me and Seth was yelling at Horus to give him back the sword I was too focused on the fight that I didn't see the monster behind me coming out of the sand I started to scream but I was shortly cut by Seth who pushed me away from monsters mouth only to him to fall in luckily he transformed into the sand and made the big sand storm. It was hard to see anything, and my headset flew off "Horus! Uncle Seth!... Horus!" I yelled; I heard screaming and ran towards it. I saw Horus bleeding through his leg and Seth grabbing his neck, then suddenly he let go, and Horus jumped on him. They were both on the ground I quickly ran to them and saw an old sword broken, the handle was broken. They both saw that; Seth slowly got up, going to Horus, "You never had the intention of winning, did you?" Horus asked, "Why you." Seth said "Be honest. You could killed us yet you saved Y/n..." Horus said, " What do you know about me?" Seth said, "I don't know much because I wasn't born in that time, but I heard stories, and I know you and Mom were close siblings, both good gods of Egypt. So please, Uncle Seth, I am begging you to stop this competition so tragedy won't repeat itself." Horus begged Seth on his knees holding his hand. Seth put his hand away from his "I can't believe you are on your knees begging what a disgrace... only the strongest can achieve what I want..." Seth made sand around Horus about to crush him " Stop it! He just wanted to make peace!" I yelled, about to punch Seth but missed because of the sand. When I looked up, I saw Anubis with some kind of magic around him. It was dark black, probably another cursed weapon since it first broke. "Anubis!?" I yelled. Seth looks in that direction. "What are you doing here? This is no place for you!" Seth yelled, throwing horus and sand on the ground. "I've come to give you a new weapon," Anubis said, getting tough sand from the storm. "Can you see what's going on!? The match is over!? Although the sandstorm blocked Maat's line of sigh!?" Seth yelled, pointing at Horus on the ground. I was digging through the sand to get him out. "It will probably be seen as foul play, and you didn't defeat Y/n. Only one sibling is covered in sand." Anubis said, "Not if I get you to keep quiet!" Seth yelled Anubis let go of the curse, and it floated to Seth. "This weapon was made specially for this match by Mother herself." Anubis told Seth " This thing is a weapon? Never in my life have I seen a weapon like this. How am supposed to use it? I can tell just from the look that thing is curse yet you aren't hiding it." Seth told I quickly grabbed Seth's hand " Anubis! What do you think you are doing you promised me you would do anything stupid!" I yelled at him, "I know... but this is my decision..." Anubis told me...~
