Will I Ever Be Normal? (Kotlc Fanfic)

Chapter 14

Sophie's POV:

"I thought I would finally be able to see Tam" Linh said sadly plopping down onto the couch in the lounge.

"Sorry Linh" Marella said seating herself besides Linh and side hugging her.

"I wonder what secret Tam found out " Sophie pondered.

"It's probably gonna be a fake secret and my mum just wants us to think that its super important so we'll waste out time thinking about that." Keefe said.

"That'd most likely" Sophie agreed and smiled at Keefe.

"I wish we could find a way to get out of this room and explore the rest of the place " Linh said suddenly determined.

"Maybe we could" Marella suggested pointing to the open windows "looks like Lady Gisela made a small mistake".

" Good idea" Sophie said getting up and heading towards the window with Keefe following.

But as soon as they leaned over the window to look down they were shocked.And were sent flying backwards into the wall almost like how Sophie and Fitz had in the first splotching match in Foxfire.

But surprisingly both Sophie and Keefe managed to stand up. "Well that was weird" Keefe commented and then he fell back down.

And suddenly all of Sophie's limbs felt heavy then she felt her body sinking to the ground and then her body went limp. 'What is happening to me' Sophie thought.

Grady's POV:

Grady could not believe he had just aggreed to let Sophie and her friends live with the Neverseen for three days. But he did not have time to dwell about this he needed to get back to Havenfield come up with a cover story and tell Edaline what actually happen.

Grady turned to Elwin "You need to keep this a complete secret" he said.

"Anything to protect Sophie" Elwin replied.

"Good,then I'll hail you when we have the cover story so if anyone asks you'll have the answer" Grady said before holding up his leaping crystal and dissapearing into the light.

Once he arrived at Havenfield he headed straight toward the house. He needed to inform Edaline of what had transpired with Lady Gisela.

"Grady!!!" Edaline exclaimed rushing over to the door as soon as he came in "Where's Sophie?" she asked when noticing no one came in after him.

"I think you should be sitting down to hear this" Grady said leading Edaline over to the couch and sitting down next to her. Once Grady explained everything Edaline looked as white as a sheet. "Once thing is we need to find a cover story so that no one finds out what actually happened" Grady added.

Edaline nodded "Do you haven't any ideas?" She asked her voice trembling slightly.

" Not one" Grady said with a frustrated sigh.

Edaline started " Maybe..." Then she trailed off and became lost in thought. Though some of colour was coming back to her face.

Grady nodded "Maybe " he promped.

"We could say that they were training and that Sophie somehow got cut. So her friends took her to the healing center. And if anyone asks Elwin anything he can say that he treated Sophie and then they left. And after that no one knows what happen" Edaline said suddenly smiling.

"That's a brilliant idea" Grady said. "And thank you for handling all of this so well" he added.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Grady looked at Edaline "You hail Elwin and explain what's going on. I'll go and see whose at the door" he said getting up and walking towards the door.
