Hunting the huntress Rewritten

Chapter 15Magic, Gods, Baboons and suchBranwynn

Sadie turned to us and smiled nervously. "you Better come with us." she said. I looked at Oracle.

"They have Hunter, we can't leave her, we should go" She says quietly watching the flying boat fly away. I nod and look at Sadie who walks down the bridge with the rest of her group of kids. Oracle grabs Festus's suitcase and followed One boy ran ahead with a group of penguins following him. I followed nervously and soon we reached out destination. It was an old abandoned warehouse next to a junkyard. Sadie waved her hand and a set of Hieroglyphics appeared in pure gold the gate opened and as we stepped inside and saw the warehouse change to a huge mansion. Sadie stepped inside and the rest of the kids poured in. We followed last dragging Festus behind us. The inside was a huge room with a statue and couches. Sadie watched the kids leave and looked at us.

"Who the hell are you?" she asked harshly crossing her arms. I looked at Oracle but she wasn't looking at me.

"that's a baboon" she said. I stared at her "No, we're Branwynn and Oracle not that's a bab-" I stopped as I saw what she was looking at-It was a baboon, big, hairy and scary. Have I mentioned I hate monkeys? Cause I do. Sadie looked around at the monkey.

"That's Kufu, he's like the secretary of our home here." said Sadie. "so your Branwynn, and Oracle. Then who's the girl we brought in and how did she get possessed by Set?" I looked at Oracle in confusion. I didn't know who Set was and how Hunter hand been possessed by him, I was hoping Oracle could fill that in. She shrugged I turned back to Sadie.

"we don't know who that is." she said nervously "and we have only known Hunter for three days. She never mentioned him" She looked at me nervously I nodded encouragingly. She smiled and turned back to Sadie.

"until we find out more about this we have to watch her carefully, I'll assign Carter to it" She said calmly as if she did this every day. I looked at Oracle and she shrugged. I sighed and nodded.

"alright" I said "but can someone at least explain what's going on here? Gods? Possession? Baboons? I think I speak for both of us when I say I'm confused" Oracle nodded

"this is the twenty-first nome there are three hundred and sixty nomes in the world. We learn magic here." says Sadie sounding exasperated "You know calling on the power of the Gods and powerful words and runes" she yawns and rubs her eyes. "look I'm beat, how about I show you your room and you can settle down while I hit the hay" I looked at Oracle and nodded. Sadie smiled sleepily. "Right this way".
