Chapter Twenty
FITZ'S POV
" Sophie! I screamed. " Sophie! No!" My call was drowned out by a muffled hand being placed over my mouth. I thrashed, and thrashed.
Help, someone, help, My mind pleaded. Someone, help me. Help Sophie.
A blasted of energy surged through me. It wasn't the good kind of energy, but it was just enough to be good that I created an illusion with my mind- with all that I had left.(idk if Fitz can really do this....)
I pushed out. And I saw a flash of light. And then nothing. Nothing except a small figure laying on the grass.
" Sophie!" I screamed, but nothing came out of my mouth. It was like I could hear myself talking, but nobody else could.
" Sophie!" I tried screaming again. Nothing.
And then Sophie started shaking.
Shaking. Big, terrible shakes.
I tore off my cloak and wrapped it around her. What was going on? She wasn't cold. I knew that. It was middle of spring.
I thought fast and dashed inside.
" Fitz?" Biana asked. she was sitting at the table with Tam. " What's going on?"
" Sophie, she's hurt." I tried to speak, but nothing came out.
I tried making a bunch of gestures and figures, but Biana just laughed and shook her head.
" You really are one silly boy, Fitz Vacker," She cooed.
I could feel the heat rising to my cheeks. I stomped over to her and grabbed her by her elbow. I tugged her all the way to where Sophie was laying. She instantly snapped out of silly mode and into serious mode.
" Oh my gosh," She whispered. " I think the Neverseen did this."
I clenched my fists, and pulled out a piece of paper and a pencil. I quickly jotted down:
I can't talk. Something happened to me too.
And then I handed it to her.
She read it, and looked at me with worry pooling in her eyes.
" Oh my gosh Fitz. The Neverseen attacked you too! They are after us. Hmm, let's get you to Elwin right away. Both of you."
I shook my head, although it was hurting like crazy. It was too dangerous to light leap Sophie in a state like this.
And then all the sudden I felt a tremor in my body. What had the Neverseen done to us?
I fell to the ground in spite of my state.
" Fitz!" Biana screamed. She grabbed my shoulders just as I was sinking into unconsciousness.

BIANA'S POV
" No! Fitz! Please wake up!" I begged. Before running over to him, I checked on Sophie.
Her breathing was rough and ragged and getting fainter.
No. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. This couldn't be happening.
I ran over to Fitz, and just like I'd suspected, his condition was like Sophie's as well.
No. I closed me eyes and braced for the reality to hit me.
It came full force.
Fitz and Sophie were dying.
I'm such an evil author!!! Mwahahahahaha. Enjoy your wait!!!
