It had been a week since Phoenix's mind had been broken and Sophie had finally reached 6 minutes with the elixir. The sun was rising and the council was coming over to watch her fix Phoenix's mind. Some good news is that Kenric took back his old position on the council. And they had successfully gotten Phoenix back to the castel without her fading it had been quite a day. They had to tell the Ruewans in the end which was the bad part.

Sophie's POV
The Vackers, the Endals, the collective, Elwin, the Dizznees, Tiergan, The Ruewans, the Talbots and her least favourite person Manget Leto. The room was so full even the room was massive.
"Phoenix is going to be way too overwhelmed with this many people" she told the council.
"I'm sure she'll be fine" said councillor Zarnia. Have they never met Phoenix before or something because they're sure acting like it.
"Can you guys start now" Emery whispered to Sophie.
"Yeah sure thing" she nudged Fitz "it's time to start". (Fitz is just there to give her more energy if she needs it and call her back if she gets lost)she placed her fingers on Phoenix's temple and the room went silent. Fitz put a finger on her left temple and she entered Phoenix's mind and started sending photos and people she loved and started inflicting positive emotions. Then Phoenix's mind started to go back together and a couple minutes. She started transmitting Phoenix's name.
"Hey mum, I'm back" she took her fingers off Phoenix's temples and opened her eyes. Everyone was starring waiting for Phoenix's eyes to open. A minute passed before Phoenix's eyes started to fluter open she just looked at all the people in the room and just starred at Kenric.
"You look better than last time I saw you" it was a weird sentence but it was a distraction. Phoenix got up and left the room. Everyone just watched her leave.
"Well that was unexpected" Oscar mumbled. She had had a feeling that Phoenix and Oscar were dating but she hadn't been able to clarify it.
"I'll go find her I have a pretty good idea of where she's gone" she suspected that she was hiding in the library. Kenric, Oralie, Oscar and Bronte follow her.

Phoenix's POV
She was going down to the library her favourite place in the castle. Seriously did they have to crowd me do they not like know me at all. She walked down a corridor and down a staircase and kept going for another half a minute until she entered the library and went to her favourite seat overlooking the rest of the castle.

The library was located in one of the turrets on the west corner

The library was located in one of the turrets on the west corner. She chose one of her favourite series Keeper of the Lost Cites the author was an elf 🧝‍♀️ with blonde hair and royal blue eyes but she normally put brown contacts in when she went to Forbidden Cites her name was Shannon Messenger. She decided to read Neverseen which was Book 4 in the series. She heard footsteps behind her she spun her chair around their standing behind her was her mum, Kenric, Oralie, Bronte and Oscar.
"I told them it was going to be to much with that many people in the room but the rest of the council didn't listen" Sophie told her.
"Nice choice of words when you woke up Phoenix" Kenric added with a grin on his face.

"I know couldn't help my self" she said mockingly with a massive smile on her face.
"Sorry to brake this little reunion-" Bronte was saying and then Kenric interrupted him.
"Do you have to be a party pooper Bronte" with a fake frown on his face.
"You haven't really changed much Bronte" she looked over at Oralie she looked like she was on the verge of tears. She got up from her chair and went over to her and hugged her. Oralie released her and wiped a tear away from her face that had fallen on down her face. She looked over at Oscar he was behind Kenric. Kenric stepped to the side, Oscar ran at her and tackle hugged her.
"You're égaré to see me"she joked whispering in his ear
"Well of course I am, I haven't exactly been able to talk to you"he whispered back he released her from his death grip and he walked over to the boys. Oralie and Sophie gave her sappy smirks 😏 while the boys were just standing in the corner talking about something.
"Don't give me those looks you two we all know about your love life. Mum and Fitz and Oralie and Kenric" Kenric looked up. Oralie grinned and started chasing her. She ran out the door and down corridors and staircases eventually the footsteps behind her stopped. She looked around and decided to go back to her room.

When she entered there was only a couple people left. Elwin, Tiergan and the Vackers.
"They all left" a familiar voice told her. She looked towards the corner.
"Hey Cam"
"Well hello Prank Master, they got bored of waiting for Blodie to find you and they decided to leave"
"Sounds like them"
"Where are Sophie, Oscar and the three councillors" Della asked
"Last time I saw them Oralie was chasing me and the others were in the library"
"Why was Oralie chasing you" Alden asked very confused. She just grinned
"Don't tell me you pranked her" Elwin asked as he flashed a red orb around her.
"No but thanks for the idea" he sighed
"What are we going to do with you"
"Nothing" Alden and Cam chuckled
"I can call them if you want but just to let you know you're super boring" she grabbed out her imparter.

"Hail Mumma bear" everyone laughed at the nickname. Sophie picked up straight away.
"What's up mum, where are you. the boring people want to know"
"We're walking back up to your room we're currently on the 5th east floor corridor the"
"Yeah alright, see ya" then she hanged up.
"Do we even want to know what your nicknames are for everyone" Alden asked
"Of course you do yours is, No reason to worry,Cams is Princess Bodyguard, Della is Queen of Shopping, Biana is Queen sparkles, Tiergan is Granite obviously, Elwin is My Royal Physician, Bronte is Bronteicles, Oralie is Queen Empath, Kenric is Best councillor ever, Fitz is The Power Congate, Charlie is Slacker and Osacr is" she went quiet " The Love of my life" she barely said it. Della and Biana's eyes went wide they must of heard her whereas the boys had no idea what she said.
"What did you say Phoenix" Alden asked, she turned away.
"I think we should let her rest Alden and let Elwin check her out she looks pale" Della said
"She does indeed" Elwin said as he studied her with worry tearing through his eyes. Everyone except Elwin, Cam, Charlie and Fitz left.

"Is everything ok Phoenix" Elwin asked,the more she thought about it she could feel there was something wrong.
"Not really" he gave her a hug.
"That better" she shrugged she starred out the window at nothing in particular. He frowned at her. "Do you want something to eat" she nodded and conjured up some mellowmelt and scoffed it down. Elwin smiled at her.
"Well looks like you're all better"
"Definitely"

Her mum, Oscar, Oralie and Kenric entered.
"Where's Bronte" she asked confused why the ancient councillor wasn't there.
"He went home" Kenric told her
"Of course he did, probably didn't want to see me again"
"I have no idea why he actually went home"
"Do u want some lunch Phoenix" her mum asked her.
"Sure thing come on Kenric, Oralie, Oscar, Cam, Charlie do u want to race down to the kitchen"
"Sure" they said in unison.
"3...2...1...go" she shouted the other three ran out of her room and she just clicked her fingers and in 2 seconds she was in the kitchen. They came panting down the staircase.
"Hey you cheated"Oscar shouted
"I never said we couldn't use abilities" she grinned
"And you never said that we could" she just gave him an annoying smile.
"So what are we having for lunch"
"Don't know wait until the others come down". 5 minutes passed they finally came in the door.
"You 3 took your time"
"Well maybe we weren't teleporting" her mum said as she strided across the room and looked in the pantry. She grabbed something and then grabbed a pot and started cooking what ever it was. Sophie than dished out the food and they all sat down in the dining room that could fit at least 40 people on the table. Phoenix took her spot at the head of the table. With her body guards next to her and everybody else sat down in their seats and started to eat. The food tasted like Chicken rice curry it was one of her favourites.
