Michael twirled his staff as he rolled his eyes at Myra. Seriously?

"Oh for the love of Ra. Are you all blind or something? Kindly redirect your words to the child who started this all by trying to be Mr. Macho-Man."

*For children of a civilization known for wisdom and societal advances they all sure act worse than one of my freshly hatched children. Even they know respect,* Sobek said.

Myra sighed and Isis threw a Khefa fist at Sobek making him stumble at the least seeing as her magic was fairly powerful. "Hey, I know respect I just don't show it to sweaty crocodiles." She scowled and turned away.

Myra laughed a little and frowned. "I understand but neither of you should carry on. It isn't good for us to go as low as that. Cherishing war is far enough." For the love of Ra I need Thoth here.

Sobek caught the flying fist with a spawned, glowing, crocodilian head. He growled as the construct faded away into the air.

"And I should not show respect to the traitor responsible for Ra's disappearance, should I?"

Isis laughed and looked at her fingers carefully before she flipped them off with her pointer finger. After a while she found the right finger and flipped them off again. "I will mess you up Sobek. Your combat magic is petty against mine. Ra, I really need to stop talking to mortals, they have taught me in strange ways."

Myra gently put Isis' hand down as she once again sighed. "It was a long time ago Micheal, she has been accused thousands of times. Ra is recovering well and so we can stop this fretful bickering. Unless you want me to bring Horus into this."

IC: A black blade, covered in green runes, appeared from nowhere in the lax hand of a black haired, blue eyed girl standing behind Michel.

"Gods, and I thought our family tree was dysfunctional. I'm fairly certain we're all working as equals here, and if that's so there's no need for all of this."

Alexandra's eyes sparked and she grinned. "Of course, if anyone has problems with being equals, I ca promise you that I can solve those real quick."

Sobek clenched his fists at Isis' comments. Ra was this goddess annoying as ever. Of course, what could he expect from someone who spent so much time with that annoying Sadie Carter, and now this other mortal who according to Michael was sometimes also a bit... annoying. Still, he ended up relaxing and giving a small laugh at her insult, replying in a way similar to how Michael would probably reply in the same situation.

*Whatever let's you sleep at night, I'd enjoy the terrible wrath of pigeons and babies you'd send my ways anyway. My children haven't had such a feast of since the time the Pharaoh ordered for the Israelite children to be-*

"And we are not going down that route. Anyway Sobek, as prideful as we are, let's not waste our energy arguing against these two."

Michael turned and walked a bit of ways further from Isis and Myra. When had she gotten so annoying? When had everyone gotten so annoying? Like really, it was as if Sobek was a giant magnet for idiots nowadays!

"Ah, can't believe I ever called her a friend," Michael laughed to Sobek.

*Unworthy of such, I agree.*

Then another girls appeared with some weapon and starting spouting off some more nonsense.

"Oh Ra help me...."

Isis growled and suddenly twenty iron shabtis started to form from the ground and jumped on Sobek. They tried to tear into his rough hide and punch him multiple times. "You bastard! Those children were innocents!" She almost jumped on him herself in her rage.

Myra followed Micheal and pulled him away from Sobek urgently. "What happened to you? I though we were friends." She whispered, as she watched Isis throw fire and swords at Sobek cutting into him and never relenting. "This isn't us...it is our hosts."

Sobek roared in anger as a powerful burst of boiling water erupted from his entire body, knocking the shabtis off him and rendering them weak due to the heat of the water. He turned to face Isis and whatever other shabtis and summonable allies she'd send his ways, golden eyes glowing with fury as his reptilian pupils dilated as he prepared for a fight. Stretching out his right arm, Sobek spawned a group of large, glowing crocodiles to deal with Isis' summons. He then spawned a staff similar to Michael's, but much more exquisite and large.

*Fool, you dare challenge me?* He growled.

He planted his staff into the ground as fire started coming his way, producing a watery barrier that doused the projectiles before the even reached him. Then Isis herself attacked, and though he managed to parry some of her attacks, other strikes of her weapon made it through and pierced his scaly skin. He growled, but laughed as water began flowing over them to help heal him. He quickly used his staff to smack Isis on the head, then followed up with a strong strike to the abdomen. Raising and clenching his left hand, a construct of a crocodile's head appeared behind her and went in for a snap.

---

Michael roughly pulled away from Myra. Friends? Ha, the nerve to use such a word.

"Don't even think to show concern for Sobek and I when all my life you never once stood up for me while your Egyptian cousins mocked my progress in their ways. I don't need your assistance now or ever, now that the god of the Nile is by my side."

He spoke harshly as he gripped his magical staff, prepared to react to any hostility directed towards him.

Isis snickered as another shabti appeared behind her to grapple with the crocodile. "You aren't worth it Sobek. I have the ability to take you and throw you into the Duat as deep as Apophis and you know it. My disciples can do the same. Weak crocodile." She spat with a very Set-ish grin as she spoke three horrible divine words. "Ha-Wi, Sa-Mir , Ha-di." Her voice powerful as the spells made perfect contact with Sobek causing him to feel immense pain and to then crumble to the ground, when they took affect of course. For noe they had to work against the gods brute force and tough skin which made it fairly weak.. "Now the battle can end." She muttered as all the shabtis and spells relented.

---

Myra bit her lip and nodded. "I feel sorry for trying Micheal. What happened in the Nomes wasn't my fault, you know I was unconnected with the others just as much as you. This is pointless though, I guess we should bicker just as much as our gods."

"please, you don't look so tough, i beat the crap out of you with my arm tied behind my back" he said with a spit in Micheal's direction. just then he saw the Egyptian's gods appear and they started to fight. Charlie moved quickly and used his titan-push ability to knock both of them to the ground.

"For the last time stop this fighting!" he shouted at the two gods. he had almost had enough of these Egyptians and wanted to have these beings gone since it was clear that they didn't care about anyone else other than themselves.

IC: Alexandra stepped between Isis and Charlie, backing him up. She wasn't quite sure about the demititan's abilities, but magic was her specialty. Runeweaver was no longer held loosely,the iron blade now gripped tightly in both hands, held up so its aura would protect the mage.

She said nothing, bada$$ boasts were only good when done once (and this situation didn't need to get any tenser) but her meaning was clear:

Chill the Hades out.

"Alright, cool story there Ronald McDonald," Michael said dismissively to Charlie as he crossed his arms to continue watching the fight. Isis was a powerful opponent no doubt, but she was unwise in underestimating the crocodile god. He smirked as he ignored Myra's words to silently cheer on his hosting god. Might as well allow the two to let out the tension before going onto the quest anyway.

---

*Is that the full potential of your spells? Weak, even Thoth can conjure up better than that!*

Sobek bore through the pain as if it were nothing. Afterall, he didn't get the title of a militaristic and violent god for nothing! He fired a huge jet of water towards Isis which then split into several directions, the ends forming crocodile heads to converge simultaneously on Isis direction while another construct of a crocodile's head formed and shot down directly above her.

*Now the battle can end...*

Despite his boring through the pain, Sobek was still wounded and now needed to heal. It had been a while since he had had a scuffle with another god. Sour, but a good way to get old and rusty gears turning once more.

Isis' eyes widened as she got chomped up by two of the water crocodiles. She growled once more and sighed as she rubbed her injured stomach, neck, and sides. "You are so unfair Sobek." She said with a cute smile as she turned and walked over to Myra.

Myra sighed and they started to inspect her wounds. "You will heal Isis. I'm surprised you aren't crying."

Isis laughed and patted Myra's head. "I know silly girl."

Adrian smirked at the conflict that happened around him. Even if he didn't have time to lash out at the Egyptian guy, others didn't hesitate to tear into him. He always liked a good conflict, even with the use to pathetic magic to aid in their fight. He found magic to be pathetic, relying on something other then your strength to fight. He said," damn it, why did you guys break it up? It was just getting interesting. Even with the use of pathetic magic."

"Is it going to be like this the whole trip?!" Alec thought aloud. She was thankful her her natural distance and coldness to people. It was easy for her not to get into fights just because of how she acted around people.

*Somebody sounds jealous,* Sobek mocked as Adrian finished speaking. Michael smiled mockingly, still willing to trade insults with anyone even though Sobek had just finished fighting. Of course, being a god of conflict, the crocodile god didn't mind and even laughed along with him.

"Of course it's pathetic! I mean, all that mental sophistication and strength of will needed to actually learn it and cast it, clearly the halfling is better because of his sole ability to think and work with nothing other than muscles."

Michael shook his head while smiling, gripping his staff firmly in case someone else decided to attack. He still looked inconspicuous while holding it though.

"I think you'll find that my fellow magicians and I are more than able to hold our own and pound you into the ground with combat prowess alone, particularly I," he finished, his expression now serious.

"Just stop fighting please. I may be a daughter of Apollo but I suck at healing." Alec said stepping between the two fighting boys. She had set down her stuff a few feet away and just had her quiver on her back and her sword drawn

Michael looked at the blonde that he had seen and heard earlier. Daughter of Apollo huh? At least she didn't seem so pretentious and out of line like the rest of the halfbloods here. His expression and body relaxed as he simply shrugged and nodded.

"Fine. Just keep your allies in line when dealing with me and the other magicians," Michael said as he motioned to Myra and Andrew. He held his staff in one hand parallel to the ground.

"Fine whatever. No promises." Alec said walking back over to her stuff

John watched the battle rage on, fists clenching as the newly arrived magician mocked the Greeks. "What in Hades is wrong with that guy?" John thought to himself. He almost said something but another fight wouldn't have done anything to help their current situation.
