After changing I met Bronte downstairs in the kitchen I made myself a snack. I'm absolutely drained from trying to be a hydrokinetic,
"How are you adjusting to you're eyesight Ms. Foster?" Bronte asked, as I waved him to sit in the chair. I stared at him, I know he didn't just leap here to see how I liked being able to see again.
"Talk, Bronte" I said, shoving mallowmelt in my face. He sighs looking at his hands which were folded in his lap.
"I understand Oralie told you about Ruy's trial..." he said, I nodded and grabbed myself a second serving of mallowmelt. "Well, I for one disagree with the vote, I think...well nevermind that, you're not in the council so-"
"No continue what you think, clearly you came here to talk so talk, I'm not telling anyone anything" I state miming zipping my lips shut locking it and throwing away the key.
"No it doesn't concern you, well anyways, regarding what pertains to you; I know that without you're eyewitness account everything Ruy has done has no evidence. He is, well, he refuses to give permission to a telepath and he has basically no records since he was 14, so as you see we are going to have a difficult time giving him an effective trial-"
"And it's my fault that you're government can't keep a kid from falling through it's system just because they are 'unfit' to attend foxfire?"
"Well, we have kept you in our-"
"No, I was missing for 2 years, and Grady and Edaline had no memory that I was their kid, don't tell me I didn't fall through your system, because believe me." I said, leaning towards him and making eye contact, "I have."
"I I well, um they want you to allow us access to you're memories so we have evidence for the trial."
"And if I don't?" I ask pushing the plate away and crossing my arms.
"Ruy could go free,"
"So you're telling me," I start leaning forward keeping eye contact, "You want me, to let someone search my head? Just because the physical evidence of oh, I don't know? Having to live the last like 6 months blind because this psycho, which you're government, wants free-cut my eyelids in half, and simply wrapped some gauze around my face to "fix" it? You want someone to watch those memories?"
"It's not me okay, I want Ruy in Exile just as much as you, it was a majority vote and I am the chosen messenger-"He tried, to weasel his way into my 'good' side.
"So he's going to Exile anyway, just perform a mind break-"
"How do you know what that is? You attend-"
"Exillium? Yeah I know I know, guess what? I'm a telepath and Alden arranged with Tiergan to have private telepath lessons so I could understand my ability, even if I washed out of you're fancy school, and Tiergan has told me exactly what a mind break is." I said, I watched him squirm in his seat obviously unnerved by how much I had really slipped through the cracks. I was an unregistered Telepath oh no what trouble am I gonna cause?
"Look the council sent me to tell you and I have, do you want Ruy to be free or do you want justice?" He said standing up. I sigh and look out the window.
"I'm just gonna have to kill him myself, since you're lousy 'government' can't put him in exile" I say and wave him towards the door. He stops and stares at me. "What concerned for my mind? trust me I've seen enough violence that my mind isn't fragile enough to shatter, and I wouldn't be to upset if it did, means I don't have to remember the nightmare my government wants me to keep reliving" I open the door and push him out.
I go up to my room, and started the shower. Who knew elves some of the supposedly 'smartest' intelligent creatures around couldn't even put good people in positions of power.

I lay in the dark, Edaline and Grady had gone to sleep an hour ago, and I was freaking out about if Gethen told Gisela to take Amy since I hadn't done well in training earlier. I crept to the drawer where I keep my spyball and pulled out.
"Show me 'Amy Foster'" I said and waited watching the colors swirl. I heard fast approaching footsteps and dropped the spyball back in the drawer and shoved it shut I ran so I was right to the side of my door.
"Sophie!" the door swung open and I jabbed my arm out slamming my fist into the persons throat. They dropped to the floor coughing, and light filled my doorway, I glanced down realizing that it wasn't Ruy.
"Fitz?" I question, lightly tapping his body with my foot. What's he doing here so late,
"It's not that late, and why did you try to kill me?" he said from a now sitting position.
"One Grady and Edaline went to bed an hour ago, two, I did not try to kill you, I did what anyone would do if loud footsteps came running towards you're door when the two other people in the house are asleep." I state, looking at him blankly.
"Now get up before I hit you again because you're a baby" I said crossing my arms,
"My dad said-"
"I don't wanna hear what you're dad said Fitz- He is working for the same government that lets to many people slip through the cracks and does a lousy job. Now get up, go home and let me sleep before I throw you down the stairs with my telekinesis, I've been practicing" I say grinning and wiggling my fingers at him. He jumps up and holds his home crystal up to the light and I close my door as he leaves.
"What do I gotta do to sleep and be left in peace from government people" I mutter to myself turning to go back to sleep.
"Apparently a lot, Ms. Foster"
I groan hearing the voice and I hit my head against the wall.
"I just wanna sleeeeep"
