Here is the next part!

''Keefe, what is going on? Did you manifest as a telepath? ''Sophie asked.

Nope, Keefe replied.

''THEN WHAT IS IT????!!!??? ''Sophie screamed mentally.

Chill your beans, Keefe  chuckled. ''I've spent so much time with you I can now recognize your "emotional scent". So I searched for your emotions, and nudged them. Then you opened your mind to mine, and here we are. ''

Sophie was shocked into silence for a while.

This is not normal, Sophie finally replied.

''Yeah, thanks for making me feel special, Foster. ''Keefe smirked.

Sophie sighed.

This is what I get for spending so much time with you, Sophie chided. She felt Keefe grin.

You know you like it,  Keefe responded.

Sophie sighed so hard it hurt.

She had to adimit she did.



It was midnight.

Sophie couldn't sleep. They were making no progress against the Neverseen, and Sophie had a bad feeling in her stomach. She felt like something bad was going to happen. She tossed and turned, and turned and tossed. And turned. And tossed. One time she even fell out of bed, Iggy letting out what Sophie was convinced was a snicker.

In the morning, she trudged downstiars. She could feel the bags under her eyes. She plopped down on a crystal chair, and reached for a peice of mallowmelt. Grady looked up from his paperwork.

"Good morning, sleeping beauty." He smiled.

Just then, Edaline walked in, holding a message with the Black Swan symbol on it. Sophie's heart began to race.

"I found this in the pocket of my cape," Edaline said uncertainly.

"Why you?" Sophie asked as Grady took the letter from Edaline and opened it. Edaline shrugged.

As Grady read the letter, his eyebrows scrunched together. He hadn't been reading it long, before he dropped the letter, and slumped back in his chair. Sophie's heart reached an all time high.

"Linh's missing."
