Seventeen
Sophie glanced at the sun. Way past two hours. Hopefully Livy could get Lihn comfortable, while Sophie would try to heal Lihn's mind. Sophie grabbed Lihn's hand, ignoring Elwin's calls for her to stop, and ran as fast as she could, and pictured her room at Foxfire. When she appeared there, Fitz was grumbling, Keefe was pointing at a picture of Tam (which just happened to be near Biana's bed) and complaining about his hair. Marella was braiding Maruca's hair, Dex was figgeting with Sophie's old ipod, Biana was staring at everyone and sighing. Then she spotted Sophie and Lihn. "SOPHIE!!! FINALLY!!!! We're all ready-what's wrong with Lihn?!" Sophie looked at Lihn. She was clicking her tongue and doing weird things with her hands. Biana gasped. "I-is her mind b-broken? "Yes." And then she told her the whole story.

"Okay... So what do we do?" asked Biana. When Sophie shrugged, she added, "I'll tell everyone else while you watch Lihn." Sophie nodded. When Biana left, all she could do was stare at Lihn. After about seventeen minutes, Sophie heard someone coming in. She turned around. It was Keefe! Behind him, Ro was trying to look casual. Keefe sat down next to Sophie. "Biana just told us what happened. Are you okay? That must have been freaky." Sophie shrugged. "Not much different from the usual mission." Keefe chuckled. "Usually, the mission is usually like 'break into an off limits prison.' and not 'get Lihn's bag.'" Sophie playfully smacked him. Keefe's face grew serious. "What are we going to do? Are we still going to go on the Forkle hunt?" Sophie shrugged. "We should at least wait for Tam. I'll hail him now." Keefe flinched. "I'll go pack. I doubt bangs boy will come any faster if he saw me in the background." He practically ran out of the room. Sophie took out the imparter and hailed Tam. One ring. Two rings. Three rings. Four rings. Five rings. Six rings. Seven rings. Finally, he answered. "What now?" Sophie could see a new picture in the background. It was originally a picture of Tam and Linh hugging, but Tam cut out a picture of Rayni's head and put it on Linh's head. "Tam, Linh's mind is broken." Tam's eyes wandered to the edited picture, and then he shrugged. SHRUGGED! "I'll visit her when I come to meet you guys. Forty minutes, right?" He hung up before she could answer.
