Ok, so there's A part in this that implies how long they've been there. We're gonna pretend that this whole time that used that one skill that helps you contain your hunger. If anyone knows the name of that skill, please tell me! I looked in the fourth book for awhile and could never find it!


Anyways, here I am! Finally updating!😀



~~~Sophie's POV~~~ (bet you weren't expecting that huh?😏)

3 days? 4 days? 5 days? A week? 2 weeks? I had no clue how long we'd been there. I had tried counting by the amount of times I would wake up after sleeping, but soon I realized how inaccurate that was. For all I know I might not have slept for 2-3 days straight!

My memory flashed back to the meeting with Genthen when he was captured. The council told us and him, when he had tried guessing how long he'd been there by his many times they'd bring him food and a pillow, that they had actually done it at random times, sometimes going days, and he had never known.

Was this like that? Or was I actually counting correctly? 

For all I know, it could've been a month since we were caught...

A month since I saw Grady and Edaline...

A month since I saw my friends...

A month since I saw Linh...

(Sorry, I really ship Solinh👀)

The part that scared me the most, is that in my gut, A month felt pretty accurate.




















BOOM! 

~~~Fitz's POV~~~

I stumbled back in fear. 

The wall CRACKED!

So I did probably the most stupidest thing I have ever done.  I ran at the wall.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. The only thing that came out of it was the feeling that I broke my arm.

pure pain shot through my nerves, and I doubled back.

 CRACK!

I looked up to find another crack spreading across the wall. So there was someone on the other side...but who?

~~~time skip~~~ 

I can't tell you how long its been since we were able to break the wall. We got two good cracks in, but then nothing. I had been talking with the other person on the other side of the wall through the crack. We've tried a lot to crack the wall again, but absolutely nothing worked. The only thing I could tell about the person on the other side, was their gender from the sound of their voice. I've asked them other things, but they don't tell me anything.

"Hey, you there?" I heard them ask through the crack. "Yeah." I answered back. "What?"

"I think I have an idea."

"Well get on with it!" Hope filled me. Will it work? Probably not, nothing works. But at least we have something new to try. Who knows, maybe we'll get lucky this time?

"This sounds really stupid, but maybe if we push on the wall at the same time...? In different spots...?"

.............All hope I had fell away.

"You seriously think that'd work? Are you sure you're all right in the head? That wouldn't do anything!" I answered back angrily.

"We'd literally just be pushing on the wall! If we push on it at the same time, it'll do nothing!"

"Wait! Just hear me out ok? What if we push on it together, but not on the same spot? What if we stand a few inches opposite each other?"

"How would that do anything?"

"Well, that's were gravity comes in. If we push on the same part, it wouldn't do anything, but if we push by each other, then maybe the opposite forces of the push would be enough for it to cave!" I finally understood what she was saying.

I heard movement on the other side. "I'm standing about an inch from the crack on the left, you stand an inch opposite." I did what they said.

"Ready?"

"Sure, I guess."

"Not a time for guesses! 3. 2. 1!"

BOOM!





















































...the wall broke...
