21st Nome
Having come up with nothing, the Egyptians decided they just needed to continue their day.
They needed to act like everything was normal, or as normal as it could be when you're a magician, and continue to train the kids.
Though, Carter definitely debated whether it was smart to do so. Especially when you have kids blowing up your house every now and again.
Like right now.
“And can you please explain how you managed to blow up the training room dummy when all you were supposed to do was work on your disarming spell?” Carter asked, exasperated.
Judy, who blew up the training room, just rolled her eyes. “I was tired of working on the same spell I wanted to do something bigger. I mean, I chose Horus for a reason!”
Carter closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “That is not how this works. Speaking from someone who hosted Horus at one point. We don't just get to decide when we want to change what we're practicing. You could have hurt or killed your friends.” And when that didn't seem to faze Judy it started to piss Carter off. “Judy. This is serious. This isn't some shut you go around playing with. You lucky MD and Sadie stopped it before anyone got killed. You have to understand that. Judy. Please tell me you understand.”
Carter's tone seemed to have finally gotten to Judy and she just nodded, not even looking at Carter. “Judy, look at me and tell me you understand what I'm saying.”
Judy looked up to meet his gaze, “I understand that I should not practice anything dangerous without permission and that I almost killed my friends and I will not do it again.” She said, Carter nodded, “Go up to your room, please.”
Just left without another word and Carter looked around the now destroyed room and sighed. He waved a hand and things slowly started to build themselves back up again.
He remembers when he was first starting. Sure, he fucked up, but he wasn't really under anyone, so it's fair.
He swears the kids here are trying to give him a heart attack. He has to give kudos to Percy and his friends for choosing to be immortal and help out his camp. Though it was insane no matter what.
He went down to the library and started looking for anything that could help with whatever was going on or just to read.
Like before, he hadn't found anything, so instead he just chose to pick up a random book and read it. At one point, Zia came down to join him but they stayed silent.
That changed when a rainbow with a couple of faces appeared in front of them.
Percy, Annabeth, Nico, Will, Clarisse, Travis, Conner, Hazel, Frank, Leo, Piper, Grover, Reyna, Jason, Thalia and Chiron's faces were all in the rainbow. Though it was Percy who spoke.
“Our camp just got attacked. Be careful they might be after you as well." That was all he said before the rainbow disappeared.
Zia and Carter shared a look before rushing to find Walt and Sadie.
They had reached them, and just as Carter opened his mouth and went to say something, there was a roar outside and the entire house shuddered with it.
