Elwin's POV
He had fixed Phoenix's broken rib. The ability restrictor was still on Phoenix's forehead and she still had orbs circling around her head. Everyone except Phoenix's bodyguards, Oscar, Oralie, Ro and Kenric had stayed at the healing centre. Sophie had left to go see if Fitz had calmed down. Sandor and Grizel had gone home to go back to talk to the queen or something. Bronte couldn't stand looking at Phoenix so he made an excuse that he needed to finish some paperwork.

It was very quiet in the healing centre except for Livy rearranging elixirs and remaking making some of the ones that Fitz had broken in his meltdown. Oscar was sleeping in the cot next to Phoenix, Oralie was sitting at the end of Phoenix's bed along with Kenric, Ro was sitting next to Phoenix on a chair and Phoenix's personal bodyguards were still sitting in the corner. Elwin was working on writing a report on Phoenix's health and what had happened when they put the restrictor on her head, glancing up on acassions to see if she had woken up yet. It was currently 4am not like he cared if he didn't sleep for another 15 hours or more.

~~~~~~~2 hours later~~~~~~~

All of a sudden Phoenix woke up and started crying in pain. He and Livy rushed over to go give her elixirs but nothing worked.
"Are you sure that I can't just override this thing" Phoenix said after they tried about 20 elixirs and her sculling them down with the help of Oscar.
"They made it so they have a sensor on it that if you try to tamper or use your abilities for something they don't like they can make you collapse and put you into a acoma" Kenric said which wasn't very reassuring.
"So they're smart now or are they dumber now, what do you thing dumber or smarter"
"Dumber for sure"

"And I'm guessing just to annoy me they put tracking into it"
"I'm not interlay sure about that but best not to go visit the Forbidden Cities until we know for sure. Cause I'm sure you don't want them finding your house there"
"Wait how do you know about that"
"Oralie told me" he said as if it was the most common thing ever, Phoenix glared at Oralie who just shrugged.
"Couldn't exactly keep that secret from him" she said
"Of course you did" she grumbled. Phoenix clutched her head s she groaned but stopped after a couple seconds, Phoenix took her hands of her head and laid down facing the other way so he couldn't see her face.
"You ok" Livy asked her touching her shoulder
"No" Phoenix said as she snuggled into her blankets even more
"When can I go home Elwin"
"In an hour"
"Does what mean I get to go rade the mentor's lounges" she looked over at him
"If that's what makes you more happy but you're to take Oralie, Kenric, Oscar, your personal bodyguards and Ro" Phoenix looked over at him a grin spread across her face.
"Ok" she said mischievously. She bounced out of bed and ran out the doors and yelled back "catch me if you can" to the other 7 and they bolted after her going at insanely fast speeds trying to catch up. The healing centre doors closed with a bang.

"Well that's one way to get her back to as close to normal as you can" Livy said making her way over to one of the chairs to sit down on.
"Wasn't hard either" he took a seat as his desk and began writing the rest of Phoenix's medical file it was about 3 pages away from been full he was going to have to get a new one for her maybe a bright shiny aqua one so it would stand out against the pale beige ones.
"I wonder how she's going to go when she has to take classes with her least favourite councillors" Livy asked him
"I'm guessing there will be a lot of Healing Centre visits to get out of her classes and there will probably be a heap of yelling and screaming ending in chaos"
"Most likely" Livy said as she starred into the distance looking like she was trying to solve the world's hardest puzzle.

Phoenix's POV
The 2 councillors, a queen, her loyal bodyguards and her boyfriend/congate were chasing her to the mentors lounge she was obviously in the lead with Kenric, Oralie, Oscar and Charlie hot on her heals. The other 3 were taking it more slowly chatting along the way. 1 minute later they arrived at the Mentors lounge and she twisted the door nob to find it open which was very strange because firstly it was Sunday and secondly it was never open even during the week. They stepped inside to the massive room filled with couches and chairs, food tables, a massive fridge. It was amazing and the one of the best parts in the whole inter school.
