Selia's Story

Chapter 3

When she had brought the sisters to Fitz's house it was a disaster. She couldn't believe that the Black Swan tried experiments on living children. She had thought that she was the only experiment. It was crazy that they would experiment on others. When she heard about she almost fainted and fell into Fitz's arms which made Keefe scowl and mumble,

"Ugh, it's Fitzphie again." Sophie blushed and got up. It was embarrassing that she was so clumsy and so sensitive. She also didn't like it when Keefe got mad at Fitz for catching Sophie every time she fell. She didn't want to ruin their friendship.

We ate breakfast at Fitz and Biana's house the next day to get to know the sisters - the mallowmelt was also a great addition- and Fitz and I had to do a telepathy exercise. While we ate breakfast, Selia conjured some mallowmelt onto her plate. She seemed confused and asked if it was a normal thing for elves to be able to do. I wish. I thought.

"Congratulations Selia, you're a Conjurer," Keefe said and winked. For some reason, I was jealous that Keefe flirted with Selia. But Selia seemed angry and stormed into her room.

"Should we ask her if she wants to play Base Quest?" I asked. Everyone sighed, except for Frankie because she didn't know what Base Quest was.

"It is always the same Sophie, your team always wins. You have 5 super powerful abilities, it's not fair! Even when you had one ability you were beating us like crazy!" Keefe said. I wish that wasn't true.

"But you have Selia now, who knows maybe we'll beat Sophie," Frankie said. The others gave her a look that said We wish.

"She can find you in a second with telepathy and then teleport to your base and channel energy so that she can sprint without us catching her, she was made for Base Quest," Dex said.

"Well, I am going to go check on Selia," Biana said. Going into the guest room.

A few minutes later Biana brought Selia out and they explained the rules of Base Quest to the sisters. They went outside and got ready. The teams were Sophie, Frankie, Dex, Linh, Biana, and Marella and Fitz, Keefe, Selia, Tam, Wylie, and Maruca. My team were the finders.

"Ok here's the plan, Sophie you will find the location of everyone and then you and then you, Biana, and Frankie will teleport there, Biana you will make them invisible so they can't see you three, then Sophie inflict on them. Now for the rest of us we will go to their base and take down the shields and any protection, then Sophie and Biana will come and help bring us to our base."

"Go, Team Sophie!" Everyone exclaimed while I asked, "Does it have to be Team Sophie?"

I told everyone the location of Fitz's team flag, then our plan went into motion. But when Biana and I ran to teleport towards their base, it was like we were pushed back. I looked around and clarified that it wasn't Maruca's force field. It was the wind!

Fitz, what's happening? I transmitted to my Cognate.

I don't know. He replied.

"Is that you Selia?" I asked hoping that it was. If it was the Neverseen, Sophie would have gone mad. It would have been a perfect place and time to attack, while everyone was in the same place.

"I think so," Selia answered, a big smile forming on her face. "I'm a Guster!" Selia announced happily.

"Congrats!" Keefe exclaimed, "Now, you need three more to beat Foster." We all laughed, even Tam smiled.
