A New Adventure: A Sophitz

Our Eyes Met

Sophie pov:

"Well, all done!" Livvy said and she tied off the last bandage. "That should do it for now. But we will need to change them in two or three days." I nodded, not trusting my voice. "Grady and Edeline will be here soon." She said as she cleaned up. My head jerked up and panic filled me. "Nnn nnO!" It slipped out before I realized it. "Ppplease, tt-tellll ttthem I'm nnnot stabbble eee-eenough or sssomettthinggg," I told her, my voice cracking. Argh, it am frustrating I can't talked with out stuttering!!

 I could feel tears fill my eyes as I shifted, pain shot through me. I looked down, My chest was wrapped in bandages, doubling as a tube-top, my right leg was in a caste, and my left arm in one too. Not to mention all the bandages and bruises covering me. And the only thing we could come up with for "pants" where the Nike workout short, which is probably the shortest shorts I have and ever will wear.

What I wanted to do was run. I wanted to be free. This room felt so small. And I know I should be grateful, but I want to see the sun, feel the grass! I wanted to be somewhere where I didn't have to see everyone's looks of pity.

"Well, I can hail Fitz and tell him that. But the Black Swan council wants to speak to you immediately and, that, I cannot delay." Livvy said picking up her importer. I took a deep breath, I didn't want to talk to them. I didn't want to think about what happened.

Livvy opened the door letting Elwin back in. "Why aren't you laying down?" He asked as he flashed lights around me. I winced at the ones closest to my head. I shrugged.

Elwin and Livvy went to the side room and talked in hushed voices. Something in me "clicked" and I could hear everything they were saying.

"Livvy, we can't lie to her parents!" "I know. But I don't think she could handle anyone right now. Plus the council will be here any minute." "Ttt-thennn dd-don't llie," I stuttered out. Elwin and Livvy both looked up. "Did you?.." "Rrr-read yyour ttthoughtsss? Nn-no, I cann hh-hearrr y-yyou." I said. "Hear? How?" I shugged. Elwin raised an eyebrow at me, "You should get some rest." Livvy pushed two cots together so Sage and Bruno would be close.

I laid there awhile. I'm afraid to close my eyes, I'm afraid to think about what happened.

After awhile exhaustion took over and sleep came.

Fitz P.O.V:

"What do you mean 'Brownie Points'?" I asked. "You know, I wouldn't be happy letting my daughter go off and live with her boyfriend and stuff," Sandor answered with a laugh. Fitz let out a nervous laugh. "Thanks for the boost of confidence." Grizel let out a snort.

RING, RING:

My importer went off.

"Is something wrong?" I asked Livvy. "You need to get here immediately! Sophie, sh... She's... I don't know, she's screaming and." She gulped, "Just get here!" She yelled through the importer and then ended it.

"Wha.." "We need to get back! Grizel, go update Grady and Edaline, Sandor with me!!" I said, pulling out my leaping crystal.

When we got close to the healing center all I could hear was screaming, which made me run faster. Busting through the door we found Sophie on a cot screaming and crying, but she was asleep. Elwin and a guard were trying to hold Sophie down, while Livvy attempted to poor a sedative down her throat. A frightened Councilor Alina and Oralie stood frozen in the far corner.

"Ssstop!" Sophie cried. "Ppp-ppleassse nnott aa-againnn! -I-i-i.. I ccan't-tt!"

Elwin flashed lights around her, "She's having a night terror." I stood there frozen. She swotted with her good hand trying to push the guard off her.

"Pplease... pppleasse.." She cried.

"Get off her!" I yelled at the guard I slide to Sophie's side. I took a deep breath, placed my hands on her temples, and went in.

It was like watching a movie from Sophie's point of view. It took me a second to figure out what I was watching.

"Stay still Princess. The less you struggle, the less it will hurt." The guy was big, had short brown hair. He was taking off his shirt. "Make sure she is tied down good." He told someone, with a laugh. Sophie must have looked at her hand because you could see someone tying her up. She tried to fight back, but to no avail. They were going to rape her...

Before I could watch any more I called out to Sophie.

Sophie! Sophie! Please wake up! Your safe, I'm here. I promise nothings going to happen. I need you to wake up.

I'm standing in a field now. Sophie is standing in front of me. But she looks 4 maybe 5.

I'm scared.

I know, but I'm here. I'm won't let anything happen. Do you still trust me?

Your the only one.

I took her hand and slowly led her back to conscience. She was reluctant at first, but then she stopped fighting and followed.

Sophies slowly stopped moving. Her breath slowed but was still choppy. She was still crying, but it was calmer.  But she stayed asleep, not waking up. Her mind went quiet.

Hope ya'll like it!! I really enjoyed writing this!! Y'all are amazing. God Bless!! <3333333333333
