"What?" Bronte screeched.
"Their identity is being searched at this very moment" the guard replied.
"So this was just a distraction?" Sophie wondered aloud. "No wonder they left so suddenly"
"The trigger wasn't for the gala.." Tam said
"It was for the prison" Councillor Emery completed.
"The prison?" Sophie asked. Councillor Emery looked around.
"This isn't the place to talk about this." he decided. "At my castle in an hour". All the councillors raised their crystals.
"Oh! And Miss Foster?" Bronte called out. "Bring everyone"
Once the councillors left Sophie and her friends stared and at each other for a few moments before raising their crystals too. "Here we go again" tam sighed
Sophie and her friends leapt back to Foxfire where all their parents were there along with Elwin.
"Oh good! You're all here" Sophie muttered.
Before they were bombarded with questions, Tam explained the whole story to them. Everyone including the collective looked surprised at the mention of a prison in Eternalia
"You didn't know about the prison either?" Sophie asked the collective
"We've never heard of it," Magnate Leto admitted. He glanced at the huge clock in the corner which Sophie had never noticed before. "It's study hall, I have to go". I'll be in a few minutes." he said.
"Ugh , I am so stupid! Of Course it was just a distraction" Sophie exclaimed burying her face in her hands.
"Hey! You're not stupid, Sophie" Tam said.
"Of course I am!" Sophie exclaimed.
Biana and Linh looked at Tam and then Sophie. They were about to say something but Leto burst into the room.
"Okay everyone! I'm back" he announced.
"That was quick" remarked Sophie.
Leto raised a crystal and Sophie heard him mutter something along the lines "here we go".
Sophie and her friends along with the collective, glittered into view in eternalia.
