Stina, Marella, and Linh scrambled to complete Sophie's plan.
You guys good? She transmitted, for a check-in.
Good but, what about you Sophie? All of them thought at once.
I can't tell yet. But, stay safe? Ok?
They all nodded, tears streaming down their faces.
Then, Sophie took steps towards the Neverseen. She'd never say this, but she trusted them enough not to attack her. Just in case, she held her hand high up, surrendering.
"What do you want from me?" She shouted, right in front of their faces.
Lady Gisela smirked.
"You."
"To do what?" Sophie screamed, making her head throb.
"Come with us."
"Under what conditions?"
"I'll let Keefe free. Forever. And let everybody here go. Never bother them again."
Sophie sighed. She'd already made up her mind.
The look on Sophie's face must've given her choice away. Fitz screamed to not go. So did Biana.
"And, what if I didn't?"
"Your pretty boy and this stubborn Vacker girl will be the result." She laughed, and held up her bloody shamkniv.
"NO, DON'T DO IT SOPHIE!" Fitz screamed.
Sophie ignored him. "And, how will I make sure that you aren't lying?"
"I'll let them go first. Get everybody to the Healing Center. And even if Elwin is not there, your little Livvy would be there too. Get someone to hail her."
"Only under one condition."
"I'll have to agree to that." Lady Gisela scowled.
"Give me three hours, and I'll get ready."
Lady Gisela sighed. "Stubborn. But, if you don't meet me here three hours later, you'd kiss your pretty boy and your friends goodbye." She laughed, like everything was funny.
Sophie sighed.
"I'll do it."
"NO!" Fitz and Biana screamed. Linh, Marella, and all the bodyguards screamed along with them.
"SOPHIE, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!" Sandor screeched.
"I've done what's right to protect everybody."
Lady Gisela flashed whatever was called her "geniune" smile. She shoved Biana and Fitz onto the ground, and her eyes narrowed at Sophie.
"Good choice."
Then she held her crystal up high in the sky, and then disappeared.
Ok, I know that this was very short. But I wanted this to end on a cliffhanger sorry hehe
