'''    “Ow!” Sophie cried, sitting up quickly. A little yellow ball of fluff and wings flew into the air, making squeaking noises and fluttering until it landed back on Sophie’s bed. “Iggy! That hurts,” she said, running her hand over her face to make sure she wasn’t bleeding. Thankfully, her hand came back clean.'''

'''     Iggy flew around some more before he flew over to his cage. Sophie sighed. She had forgotten to feed him yesterday. With much effort, she got out of bed and headed downstairs to the pantry where Iggy’s food was kept.'''

'''      Sandor, who had been standing guard outside her door, followed her down. “Do you plan on going to school today?” he grumbled as she grabbed a few slugs for Iggy.'''

'''     “School?” Sophie asked, pausing for a moment. She had forgotten about Foxfire in yesterday’s events. Her heart pounded at the thought of seeing Fitz. She would have to explain to him about being unmatchable. “Do I have a choice?” '''

     “Not really,” Sandor grumbled in his high pitched voice.

'''    Sophie sighed. “Foxfire has survived several times without me. I can catch up on a day of school or two.”'''

'''     But yet, not even thirty minutes later, Sophie grudgingly walked up the steps into Foxfire with Sandor and her gang of bodyguards surrounding her. She kept her gaze locked on the ground, really hoping she wouldn’t end up bumping into a particular teal-eyed boy. This was definitely going to be a hard day.'''

'''     She had five minutes until her first session. A lot could happen in five minutes though. Fitz was no doubt looking for her after she blocked him yesterday. It wouldn’t be difficult for him to find her with her hulking bodyguards.'''

'''     “Seriously, I don’t need all five of you here,” Sophie said to Sandor. “Just leave me with Tarina and we’ll be fine.” Fitz wouldn’t be able to find her as easily if Sandor and Bo weren’t stomping around.'''

     “Our jobs are to protect you, miss Foster,” Sandor said, “I see no reason for us to return to Everglen.” Bo and Tarina both nodded in agreement.

'''     Sophie sighed. Well, it was time to get a little creative. She decided to hide in the bathroom until class started. At least that way she could avoid Fitz even if he did see her.'''
