An intense fight was about to start at the gathering!
"Squack!", the little chick was instantly frightened and fell on its feathered ass.
"Hush~", Isis quickly collects him into her arms and forms a protective barrier.
"W-who is he, chirp?"
"He IS OUR ENEMY", gritted Isis. Fury was emitted from her eyes and the little chick had never seen the gentle Isis this aggressive.
Seeing such a powerful figure the foolish little chick subconsciously asked the Thoth system, "How many faith point does he have?"
Before the system could even answer it was suddenly interrupted by a mental blast to its psych. Some evil wave of insanity suddenly drenched its entire being. Its little bird brain couldn't bear it and lets out a loud mournful, "SQUACCCCCKKKKK!"
Naturally the tense atmosphere was significantly diminished and the attention was focused on the foolish little duck.
Isis quicked moved to invoke some faith and heal the little ducky. How can it be so foolish?! She couldn't help but say this, but then again they never really had a chance to tell it the risk of peering at something beyond its level.
Unfortunately whatever Isis tried to do she could not stop its ailment. Worried Isis shouted, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM?!"
Set loomed his terrifying eyes at her and the "thing" in her arms. He showed a devilish smirk and camly stated, "I did nothing, in fact I am not the one at fault here, sister."
Isis couldn't say anything about that since it was in fact true, but it was her Little Sun! She was stampering and panicked, as she was about to do something irrational, Horus slashed out.
Horus also worried for his little bro, and adding on to his previous grudge, he immediately attacked Set.
Smiling Set obliged and a flames of dark fire flickered with evil light. One burned with righteous light and the other with flames of chaos. If the foolish little duck had the proper power it would have been able to know that the attack both of them unleashed consumed about 100 thousand worth of faith points.
It was 50 thousand more times than what it had and it was gone in a single attack from both of them! If it had known it would have begged Horus to give it some more points by extorting his big bro a little more. I mean they wasted 100 thousand instantly, it would have realized that his big bro tricked him with a number that seemed a lot!
But suddenly a miniature sun appeared out of nowhere and it's glow melled both of the gods attack like it was nothing.
"Both of you this is not the time to be fighting against ourselves!"
The supreme deity made his move. Even the author couldn't measure his faith count. His wise eyes looked over at the little thing that collapsed. It was annoying chirping and making random bird sounds. Strangely enough none of them were consistent, just what species is that little thing?
His wise eyes instantly knew who the strange bird was, after all he was the one who helped it integrate it into their realm! He was the old man who spoke out when Horus and the others wanted to bring it into their care.
"Bastet…. Bring the little phoenix to me…, don't hurt it."
"Or eat it...", after pondering for a while he remembered her nasty habit so he added that one last bit.
Basset did as she was told and approached the roasted little duck with eyes of a hunter. She instinctively started to drool. This naturally did nothing to reassure Isis, but she didn't dare do anything. She looked very guilty as Ra proposed to help her Little Sun.
While she had an ashamed look, Bastet paid no heed to her worry and coldly grabbed the little chick from her arm. Her pupils slit and her cat head purred with anticipation.
"Bastet….", warned Ra
"....yes", her ears dropped and she uninterestedly plopped the twitching headache on the ground like how a cat would to its owner with a dead rat or bird it caught. It was a cat's way of showing affection. She rolled her eyes and started to groom her arms and claws. Since she knew she can't eat the fledgling phoenix she lost all interest.
"The little rascal… she still shows no guilt after hunting my creations to extinction!", thought Ra.
"Its fate sure is a strange one….", thought Ra. It wasn't the first time it had helped the lucky little thing. What being would hope to expect a graceful gesture of a god of his stature!
Nonetheless he was quite amused and felt compelled to help the poor little thing.
He first evoked some faith and patted its little head. The chaos ensuing within its mind started to disperse.
"As always Set is always a little heavy handed…. This is why he can't be a good ruler."
"On the other hand Horus is still far too inexperienced", thought Ra, he was still displeased that Horus lost himself to his emotion and launched the first strike.
While healing the little chick, Ra was feeling rather quite generous and he decided he might as well do something for the first phoenix in the egytian realm in centuries…
After a while the chick was comfortably nestled in the lap of the supreme god, like a lap dog. Its light breathing could be heard throughout the gathering. At this time Set was quite flabbergasted with how his momentum was interrupted.
He wanted to scan the little thing with his Thoth system, but under the protection of the sun god he dared not. He couldn't dare displease the god as it would dampen his plans…
He would have to look deeper into this bird...
Ra was even more fond of the little chick as it looked quite adorable sprawled on his lap with its little legs twitching as if it was in a pleasant dream.
"Snore~ cheep, cheep, Snore~ quack, snore~", it even continued to make weird sounds as it slept.
Quite the feat considering what was going on. It was completely oblivious to its surrounding as the lap dog faded away into dreamy land.
Seeing her lord content with the tasty turkey, Bastet was instantly jealous. How dare it steal her lods affection! How dare mear food try to steal her place! Only she should be able to peted on his lap. She was flabbergasted as to why her lord took such a liking to those fat turkeys. She was his favorite! NO ELSE CAN TAKE HER PLACE, hisssssss~
Back why her lord created some tasty turkeys she was secretly jealous over how her lord was spending time with his grand creation, so she simply ate them. Her lord was naturally angry but she transformed into a cute brown cat and took out the big guns. How could the supreme deity resist his cute little guardian watery eyes!
Giving up Ra never bothered to create them again as it would be a waste of faith and time, as they would all be gobbled up by her!
Unknowing the lap dog attracted the animosity of 2 very powerful gods! One was an adored creature across all the realms, and the other was feared throughout the lands!
Bastet and Set both narrowed thier eyes and stared at the "thing" that was merrily cozying up to the supreme god.
The quirky little turkey suddenly shivered in its sleep... it seems like it was having a nightmare.
