'I've ruined everything?' It's cold feminine tones asked her incredulously. 'What about you? You are the one who's in denial about my whole existence. You're the one who will ruin everything for me!'
'I haven't ruined your 16th birthday though, have I?' Izzy asked, annoyed at the voice for ruining the one day she was sure would be the best of her life.
'My 16th birthday was so many years ago you wouldn't have existed to ruin it. Your argument is invalid.' At least at times the voice sounded nice. Now wasn't one of those times however, and Isibel was getting vexed.
"Who are you?" She cried frustrated.
'Isis, Goddess of Motherhood, Magic and Fertility, Beauty of the Nile, Wife of Osiris, Daughter of Geb.'Isibel was shocked.
"Wait. What?" The voice - Isis - harrumphed at this, clearly not pleased to have to repeat herself.
'I said...'
'I know what you said!' Isibel snapped at Isis. 'Now shut up!'
Life as they know it is turned up-side-down for three teenage girls when they discover that the gods are real, and they can take over your head! Painful headaches, voices in their heads, and inexplicable 'seizures' are just the tip of the iceberg for Athelia, Isibel and Diana, as they have to face crazed Guarders, gods with them 24/7, parents hell-bent on driving them insane, and probably worst of all, themselves.
I looked at Michael lying in a pool of blood. Emily and Jack were still off the side in a cage, screaming and crying while looking at this horrifying situation. Robert was cuffed to the wall crying and blood was sipping down on his naked torso as he was shouting "No!" And looking down at me.
This is it, Isabel, it is just you and me now! I have gone through a lot within the last few months and I am not the same person anymore. The anger, the pain of my injuries and the pain coming from my heart at everything that has been done to me and my family, for no reason at all, coalesces into a rage that will not be quenched ... All of this, because of some stupid prejudice by this woman standing now in front of me, so proud of herself...
"That's it, Isabel! I had enough of it now! Let's end it now, once and for all!" I shout and her. Her black eyes widen and her pale face fills with a big smile.
