Here you guys go!!! I'm sorry that it's moving a little fast, I know I'll never finish or I'll forget my ideas if I don't just plug them all in. Anyway... here it is:

Sophie winced at the screams and yelled/explained what she heard to Dex.

“Let’s get to the cliff!” Dex started running, grabbing her hand.

'''Sophie bit her lip. “There… might be another way.”'''

“Then let’s go!” Sophie was surprised by how much Dex cared about Fitz until she realized… he didn’t.

'''Dex knew that she couldn’t handle losing Fitz. Sophie wanted to wrap him up in a hug (then proceed to put him in a bubble so he couldn’t get hurt) but, they had something to do.'''

“Here” Sophie tightened her grip on Dex’s clammy hand and started sprinting.

'''She channeled all of her energy into her feet, pumping her legs and charging forward. Dex struggled to keep up so she tried wrapping her energy around him. She imagined a forcefield covering his feet and rushing along the ground along with hers. When he sped up, she did too. Suddenly, she could she they were flipping through the void. '''

'''She felt herself flickering in and out, and turned to look at Dex. He looked… terrified. At first she thought he was scared of her ability… until she looked ahead. The cliff was quickly approaching so Sophie focused all of her energy and up ahead, a gap appeared. '''

'''This one was stronger than the rest, only flickering slightly. When they approached it, Sohpie thrust herself through and pictured Everglen’s glowing golden gate. '''

'''Sophie managed to stick a landing as Dex went tumbling to the floor. '''

'''“When… did… that… happen?” Dex panted, brushing the mud off of his black tunic. '''

'''“When I was running with Keefe.” Sophie realized that this was the first time she had teleported that way. Before it had only been the flickering gaps. '''

'''After a quick glance, the duo raced through the doors and up the stairs to Fitz’s room. When they didn’t hear anything, Sophie worried that he wasn’t at Everglen. She had forgotten to check. '''

'''She barged into the room and almost cried in relief when she saw Keefe standing in the corner. She wasn’t too late. Then she saw that Keefe’s eyes were scrunched closed almost like…'''

'''“Keefe! Let go!” She shook him as hard as she could. “Keefe. Please.”'''

'''Her voice cracked as she looked at Fitz. His face was purple but parts of it were paleing. His eyes looked at Keefe in horror as he choked out. '''

“He- stop.” Fitz’s eyes rolled back and Sophie’s worry intensified.

'''Dex walked up to Keefe and shook his shoulders, trying to snap him out of his daze. Suddenly Dex’s face started purpuling as he walked over to join Fitz by the window. '''

'''No, no, no. This can’t be happening. Sophie thought, gathering her energy to prepare for a transmit.'''

She had never been in Grady’s mind while he was using his talent so she had no idea what it was supposed to look like.

'''Keefe’s mind seemed to be split into three parts. She could see Dex and Fitz’s thoughts as well as Keefe’s, making it difficult to determine whose was whos. She was sinking into the web of thoughts until she heard a soft; Sophie?'''

'''The misty thoughts cleared away, fleeing. Keefe! Sophie almost screamed.'''

'''What happened? She asked.'''

'''I… don’t know. We were arguing and then I slipped into a trance. I didn’t know what was happening I just-'''

'''His voice faded out and Sophie opened her eyes, stretching her arms out around him and brushing a tear from his cheek. Another one appeared and he rested his head on Sophie’s shoulder.'''

'''Sophie grabbed his shoulders and held him at a distance. “It’ll be okay.” He nodded.'''

'''She turned to face Dex and Fitz, wrapping them both up in giant hugs too. “Are you guys okay?”'''

'''Fitz was clasping his throat and his voice came out raspy. “I’ll be fine.” He snapped, glaring at Keefe. His eyes turned kind when he looked at Sophie though. '''

“So what exactly happened again?” Sophie shook her head, crossing her arms.

'''“Keefe and I were uh…” Fitz’s eyes seemed to want to look anywhere except Sophie as he continued. “We were… arguing. And then this warm breeze spread up my back into my throat and I… I couldn’t breath.”'''

“What were you arguing about?” Sophie asked, hoping they would actually tell her.

'''When both boys flushed red, Ro chuckled and said, “There you go again. Our shining star, Miss Oblivious!”'''

'''Only this time, she couldn’t just shrug it off. Whatever it was had put Fitz in danger! She racked her brain for the other instances Ro had called her “Miss Oblivious”.'''

Sophie’s cheeks grew hot and Ro chuckled, “She finally figured it out!”
