"What did you two come up with?" Mr. Forkle asked.

Sophie glanced at Keefe before saying, "Remember a few years ago when you led us to an island and used us as bait to try and trap the Neverseen?"

Mr. Forkle sighed and said, "Please don't tell me all you came up with was to trap the Neverseen by tricking them." Sophie and Keefe looked to the ground.

"You kids need to realize this isn't a game. If you don't have a solid plan within a week, you will not be allowed to work with each other, AND you'll be studying the different types of abilities the Neverseen have." Mr. Forkle said before stepping into the light, leaping away.

Sophie groaned, burying her head in her hands.

Keefe scooted closer to Sophie, reaching for her hand, and said, "I have an idea, but you won't like it."

"At this point, I'll do anything."

"What if we try the plan we came up with, and if it doesn't work, then we can come up with another plan."

"Let's do it,"

Keefe looked at her with surprise then said, "Who should be the bait?"

"You, me, Dex, and Fitz?"

"Okay. I'll tell everyone to meet us here in 30 minutes."

"How do we know they are going to come after us?" Dex asked after they arrived at Atlantis.

"We don't. But they will eventually, right?" Sophie said. She was worried this plan wasn't going to work. They all had hidden weapons and uncover helpers spread throughout Atlantis, but she wasn't sure if that was enough.

She felt someone grab her hand. She looked up, and it was Keefe.

"What are you doing?" She transmitted to him.

"You are making me sick. Why are you so worried? " He thought.

"Because I am scared someone will get hurt."

"Isn't that the point of this? To hurt the Neverseen?"

"I'm not in the mood."

She severed their connection, but still held tightly onto his hand. 

"Where should we go?" Dex asked. Sophie had no idea. She felt like this plan  was thrown together last minute and would end in disaster. 

"What if we go near some shops?" She suggested.

"We need a bigger space in case we have to fight them. What if we go to that empty space over there?" Fitz suggested pointing to an open area. Sophie didn't answer because she was too focused on the cloaked figures standing right where Fitz was pointing. The Neverseen was waiting for them.
