moonlight assassins [old version]

*nine(tam)*

Not even five minutes alone and Sophie seems to be needing our help again. We were contemplating what to do about the pyrokinesis when we heard Sophie scream. Everyone stopped for a second and looked up, but I didn't waste that time, I ran up the stairs, pushing anyone in my way. "Soph!" I kick down her door and rush into the room.

I can hear rushing water and music, but no more screaming which worries me more. Going closer I see a shape of a human in her walk in shower. I would go in, but seeing as though she's in the shower, she's probably naked. "Guys! I would love to help her, but she's not...not dressed enough. Edaline, she's unconscious in the shower, hurry!"

"There is a swelling storm," Edaline rushed past me bringing Biana and the rest of the girls with her, "And I'm caught up in the middle of it all," Linh wraps her in a towel and Stina levitates her to the bed, placing the blanket over her, "And it takes control," There's a gash on her forehead, but it's nothing compared to the look on her face. The look of pure pain, "Of the person that I thought I was," Edaline gasps as she puts her hand on Sophie's forehead, "The boy I used to know,"

She speaks at the same time as the music, "Would someone shut that damned thing off." Demands Emery, "How did she even get her hands on this, it's human, therefore banned." Terik steps up, "Oh that's probably on me, I let her go back to her old house in order to grab something. She must have grabbed that as well." No, Sophie brought it the first time coming here, it helped her headaches she'd told me.

"Well, as I was saying, she has a fever and is burning up. Call Juline, I need a froster if I want to help her. Also we need Elwin, I honestly have no idea why he's not here in the first place, he could technically be an older brother for Sophie." Not waiting for an answer she conjures ice and places it on Sophie's head, smoothing out her daughter's hair. I can't stand this show of affection and step out of the room.

I blend into the shadows and wait for this all to be over so I can check on my--conscious--friend, but blending into the shadows means that no one can see me well enough to point me out. "I'm telling you Adynah, she's remembering, Edyn's curse is wearing off and the whole plan will be ruined." This is a man's voice talking, but I can't tell who it is. He has an accent and scarily sound a lot like Sophie, "That is not possible, Edyn is too strong, her curse will not be removed until she decides on it." The man gives a fake sigh, "But look at the facts, the prophecy made on the day of her birth is coming to pass.

"Only after great pain may she awaken inside of her what needs to be to stop the aging Queen of the Witches. First comes abandonment, then pain, then sorrow, then anger, then family, then great power, then loss, and finally victory. No matter what comes to pass, Sophia Eliza Alvina Forster-Pyren will pass the test and claim what is her's.

"Don't you see, Adynah, we made a mistake in separating them. This will only lead to your demise." The lady beside him laughs, "I've survived for thousands of years, what makes you think a small little girl who has no clue of what's going on is going to beat me." That sounds a lot like Sophie's name, but it can't be...Sophia--wisdom, can be written as Sophie, Eliza, short for Elizabeth--joyful, Alvina--elf friend, and Forster or Foster the shorter more modern version--keeper of the forests.
