I'm not going to stay here. Fitz told himself. Nor Sophie. 

Fitz stared at the gun that was pointing at him. He carefully waited for the right time. He ran to get his weapon, he pointed the sharp edge at Keefe. Unfortunately, red already soaked his right shoulder and spreaded slowly.

The next second Keefe was knocked out by a hand-sized rock. Fitz knew he didn't do this. 

"Idiots." Rosalyn murmured in the corner.

"Excuse me?"

"I was just about to knock him out, okay?"

"Oh." Fitz went back to untie Sophie, Sophie groaned. "Sophie." Fitz whispered in her ear. Her eyes opened slowly. Fitz set down the ropes that were tied on her hands and legs. Sophie wrapped her arms around him. "You're bleeding." she frowned at his right shoulder. Fitz smiled. "I know."

Loud coughing interupted. They both jumped apart. Fitz sighed and went to help Rosalyn untie herself.

"You didn't tell me you have a boyfriend." She said, looking between Sophie and Fitz.

"I'm not her boyfriend." Fitz replied before Sophie could answer.

"Come on." Rosalyn pulled Sophie up."Teleporting." Rosalyn and Fitz both held Sophie's hand, they leaped down the tower, and they landed in Havenfield. Edaline squealed as she saw Sophie, but her face became sorrow as she saw Fitz's wound. Grady came, of course.Edaline took them into the house, Sophie took Fitz to her room after giving an excuse to her parents.

She wrapped har arms tightly around him again, Fitz can feel her warm breath on his neck.

"Should we go to Elwin?" she whispered. "To check your wounds."

"And yours."

"Yeah."

 *****

Elwin tackled Fitz at the first sight of him. "Where were you?" Elwin banged the file he was reading on Fitz's head. "C'mon, don't worry, I left you some work." he threw a scroll to Fitz.

"You left me the hardest one!" Fitz exclaimed.

"That is the price for being gone for two weeks."

Two weeks. Della's prohecy went wrong. Fitz felt his lips stretch into a smile.

Fitz grabbed a few vials on the shelf for the wound on his shoulder and went in Elwin's lab.
