Sophie's POV:

Sophie sighed as she turned to face the voice. They had just escaped from the Neverseen and now...................there they went again!

Lady Gisela was behind them wearing a dark black cloak and carrying a letter.

"What do you want?" Sophie snapped, she was losing patience with her enemies.

Lady Gisela laughed slowly, "I want nothing to do with the Moonlark,"

"Then, why the heck are you here? Go away!" Ruy spat.

"Oh, it's good to see you here. Why would a talented psionipath ever want to join the loser side?" she frowned, definitely worried about losing a psionipath.

Sophie glanced at Ruy and could definitely see that he was angry. "Can you just stop and tell us what you want?"

"Like I said Moonlark, I want nothing to do with you. You are simply the messenger for once." Lady Gisela told her, grinning.

"Why would I do anything for you?" Sophie asked.

Lady Gisela ignored her, "I give you a letter and you deliver it to my husband without reading it. Is that clear?"

"Why can't you do that yourself? He's your husband in the first place" Sophie commented, but she was eager to see what was in that letter.

"I have my reasons." Lady Gisela smirked. Her smirk looked a lot like Keefe's smirks. It was a bit scary of how similar Keefe and his mom were. "Now, will you do it or not?"

"Never!" Sophie spat. After all that she did, why would they do this for her? Well, it might help them look inside but..........it wasn't a good idea.

Lady Gisela just smiled as she pulled out a human gun. Sophie and Ruy both knew what that was.

"Fine," Ruy told her, glaring.

Sophie didn't know if the gun had bullets or not but she didn't want her only brother getting hurt. Speaking of brothers Sophie had an important job after whatever this was going to be. She had to ask Mr. Forkle about why he hid this information from her. Sophie was getting off track and didn't hear what Lady Gisela said before dropping the letter and leaping away.

"Sophie," Ruy waved his hands in front of Sophie's face.

"What?" she asked him.

"DId you even hear what she said?" he asked.

"No," Sophie said, guiltily. "I should've listened,"

"It's fine. She said, that's all I wanted. Run along and go get this to him by tonight." he told her.

"Oh," Sophie sighed. She needed a break, but oh well. She wasn't getting one anytime soon. It wasn't like she wouldn't get a break at all, right?

When she glanced at Ruy he seemed to be thinking the same thing. Maybe this was a siblings thing.

"Come on, let's go inside my house," Sophie said, dragging Ruy inside even though he protested.

"Who is entering my house without permission?" Grady bellowed, running to see who came inside. Biana, Keefe, Tam, Linh, Dex and Fitz also ran downstairs hoping to see Sophie.

"Why is there a Neverseen member in my house?" Grady quickly pulled out a melder and shot it at Ruy before he could protect himself with a force-field. Ruy fell to the ground unconscious.

"STOP!" Sophie yelled and knelt before Ruy. Now they had to go to the healing center.

"What the heck is wrong with you, Sophie? I thought you were part of the Black Swan? It looks like you aren't, so get out of my house!" Grady said, hurt that his own daughter joined the Neverseen. He tightened his grip on the melder and shot Ruy with it again and again.

Keefe's POV:

Foster was there! Keefe couldn't believe it, he knew she was coming home but he didn't know it would be this soon. Keefe grinned and started running up to welcome Foster back home. Then, he gasped. Ruy was on the floor unconscious. He realized this was Grady's doing and instead of running over to Foster he ran over to Ruy.

When Grady saw him run over to Ruy he stopped blasting and started yelling even louder. "Wow, Sophie! You didn't tell me 'that boy' was part of the Neverseen too,"

"Ok, Grady! Calm down! First of all, Foster is not part of the Neverseen and neither am I or Ruy," he said.

"Well, how can I believe that?" Grady asked, "Remember that time when you joined the Neverseen, what if that's the same thing happening now? How would I know?"

Edaline ran into the room and slapped Grady. "Our daughter is back, is this how you greet her?"

The rest of his friends were just watching the scene in shock, not knowing what exactly was happening.

"Well, she's part of the Neverseen. This is exactly how you greet a member of the Neverseen," He told his wife.

"Sophie, are you really part of them?" Edaline asked, worriedly.

Grady started to open his mouth but Edaline shushed him. "Let Sophie talk,"

Sophie couldn't talk and she was just staring at Ruy.

"See," Grady shouted.

Keefe felt a presence in his mind and he knew it was Sophie.

Tell them the truth now. Before it's too late.

Okay, Foster. Go get Ruy to the healing center.

No, Keefe. It won't look good if we just leap away.

True, true. Okay, then.

"Let me explain," Keefe started, looking around at everyone motioning them to sit. Well, with Foster it's always long stories. "So...days ago Ruy wrote a note to Foster and told her to meet in the middle of the night. Sophie met Ruy near Calla's tree and they talked. In the end, Sophie realized she and Ruy were siblings."

Everyone gasped except Sophie who looked at him to continue.

"So once Ruy left, Sophie was captured by the Neverseen. When she was in prison, Ruy helped her and when the Neverseen were about to hurt her he helped her instead of saving himself. Then, they both got locked in prison together and then more things happened and here they are." Keefe concluded, not knowing exactly how to explain the rest of the things.

"Yeah, so far Keefe said it all correctly. But then more things happened." Sophie continued the story, until she finished saying everything from the part about the hideout getting destroyed to how Lady Giseala made them deliver a letter.

"Oh, my!" Edaline gasped.

Grady looked guilty, "I'm sorry,"

"Can we talk later and can I get Ruy to the healing center?" she asked, already ready to leap.

"No, don't! Call Elwin here," Biana suggested smartly.

"Oh, right," Sophie said.

She grabbed the imparter Keefe was handing to her and called Elwin and told him to come here.

"Hey, what happened?" Elwin gasped. "Why is he here?"

"Long story," Keefe said, "Just heal him first,"

He listened and ran over to him, flashing orbs.

Elwin gasped again but this time it looked like he was trying to hide his frown.

"What?" Sophie asked, worried.

"He might not survive," Elwin admitted, super scared now.

Everyone looked at eachother. They only knew what Ruy had done, and they knew he had changed. They also knew Sophie would break with guilt. Ruy had to stay alive.

"The melder shots and the shadowflux in his body are not going well with each other." Elwin informed them.

Sophie started sobbing and Keefe ran over to her, pulling her into a tight hug. And Sophie held on to him like he was the only thing keeping her together. That was okay with Keefe because Foster was the only person keeping him together too.
