Hi guys! Also-2K READS WHAT THE ACTUAL HECK!?!??! Y'all I have no clue why you read this. I was going through my old chapters the other day and its literal crap. Anyways, thank you all so much for reading this. I'm so glad you enjoy it. I posted asked you guys on my page what you want Mr.Snuggles and I to do for a 2k reads special, and AlphaShadowWolf1 had a great idea. They suggested that I do a chapter in the POV of a Neverseen member, and I loved that. It'll be a while until we're at a point in the story where I can post that, but it'll be worth the wait. I swear. This chapter is a bit shorter, and I is sorry, but I couldnt find a better cut off. So anyways, thank you for reading my garbage. Without farther aduo: Enjoy!

"Where are we going?" Fitz asked, but continued following her. She ignored him and just kept walking. There were too many thoughts going through her head to form a response anyway. Her brain was dredging up memories of past battles and talks of concern from her friends. She remembered Wylie having a near-breakdown because of what they did to Tam, she remembered what they did to Tam. Despite how happy she was Tam had been standing again, he never would have been paralyzed if it weren’t for them. She kept falling into a vat of rage, until a hand grabbing her arm pulled her back to real life. “Hey. Are you okay?” Fitz asked, never wavering his grip. She didn’t answer, she was too focused on trying to get her emotions to stop rocking her. He gently pulled her closer, and she obliged without noticing it. “Sophie? You’re kinda shaking.” He had his hands holding tightly onto her upper arms now, forcing her to look him in the eyes. She shook her head once, warning him that she didn't want to talk about it, not yet. Maybe once they got where they were going. “It’s okay, just breathe.” It wasn’t until he said this that she realized she had been holding her breath.
“I’m okay.” She finally responded. “Just, follow me.” With that he moved his hand back down to hold hers and she grabbed it back, leading them off.
“The gymnasium?” Fitz asked, a confused expression on his face. She nodded and pulled out a folded mat, spreading it on the ground. “What are we doing here?”
“I was thinking,” She began, stepping onto the mat and motioning for him to do the same. “We’ve trained before. But we’re missing a step that could mean all the difference.” She took off her sucker punch and set it to the side, along with any of her jewelry that could actually harm someone.
“And that is?” Fitz asked, seeming both confused and curious.
She met his eyes. “Sparring.” Fitz looked at her, slight awe showing on his face. “We’ve prepared for just about everything, except for what another elf would do in battle. No pre-planning. No warnings. Just sparring.”
“I mean, I guess that’s a fair point. But are you sure this is safe? Especially with no one over-seeing it. Someone could get hurt.”
“It should be safe. Humans do it all the time in martial arts. Just yield when you can’t take anymore, and the goal of sparring isn’t to hurt anyone. It’s merely to prepare for a fight.” She took up a fighting stance, like the ones she had used before, and he hesitantly copied her. “I promise we’ll be ok. Are you ready?” He nodded. “Good. Special abilities?”
“What kind of fight would it be without them?” He gave a small smirk, but she could still see a glint of fear in his eyes.“
“Deal.” She gave him a smile in return, then charged.
