Sophitz /Sofitz

Chapter 22

" I don't know how you escaped but I am willing to make a deal," Fintan said pacing in the entryway. "What type of deal?" Biana spat. " See I never wanted all four of you in the first place," Fintan said stopping and leaning on the wall. " Then why did you threaten to harm their parents if we didn't come with you?" Keefe asked. Fintan began to laugh, a cold hard laugh. " Isn't it obvious Mr. Sencen, all I wanted is Sophie and if for some reason my little minions couldn't provide me with the moonlark herself then I could trade her boyfriend and friends for her" Fintan said when he stopped laughing. Before Sophie could think she blurted out " Just tell us what the deal is!" "Okay, okay. I will let your friends go if you stay" Fintan said a trying to hide the smile forming on his lips. "No" Biana, Fitz, and Keefe yelled at the same time. " That is not your desition it is up to Sophie" Fintan snapped. Everyone looked at Sophie. Sophie thought about for a while. 

Fitz I am going to take energy away from Fintan so he is weak then we must run.

Ok

Tell the others I will tell Fintan I need more time and the conditions.

Alright

Be careful

You too

"Anytime now," Fintan said with obvious annoyance. " Let me think" Sophie snapped back. Slowly Sophie drew the energy until finally, Fintans face was as white as the wall. Then Sophie started inching closer. When she was close enough she snapped the hair tie and tied around Fintans hands. Fitz then used telekinesis to lift him off the ground with some help from Biana. Sophie then opened her mind to try to find the exit. They were almost there when a figure in a black cloak said: " Why are you leaving so soon". "Oh come on" Keefe whispered, " why can't we escape once without meeting any trouble" Keefe continued. " I agree" Fitz whispered back. " Brant" Sophie said not trying to hide the disgust in her voice. "Oh the moonlark is here," Brant said sparking a flame in his right hand. " Okay we can do this the easy way or the hard way," Brant said sparking a flame in his left hand. " Oh come on Branty it's us we never do things the easy way," Keefe said sounding like he was talking to a toddler. " Oh, you really don't know what I have in mind," Brant said thrusting his hands out at Keefe. A bright orange fireball came flying at Keefe. Before it could hit him Sophie dove in front of him causing the fireball to hit her arm. "Yeesh Sophie when can you not hurt yourself," Keefe said putting the fire out with his cloak. Sophie groaned but before she could get up all four of them were forced forward and thrown into a room next to them. " Lets finally settle this" Brant said with fire in his eyes.
