Chapter 3 : sophie's pov (again hahha)

"Okay," Linh's calm voice cut through the silence. "When do we leave?"

Tam reeled on his sister. "Are you crazy? They could be dangerous!"

"That's unlike you to say that," Linh replied teasingly. "Usually you'd be saying, 'let's go meet this stranger and wreck them if they're evil!"

"I don't say that," Tam corrected.

"Don't deny it, Bangs Boy," Keefe said as he flicked a piece of dust of his sleeve. "You do."

"Really?" Tam asked the room. Everyone nodded. He groaned and pulled his bangs over his eyes. "Ugh, this is awkward."

"But Linh," Sophie said. "Are you sure you think this is a good idea?"

Linh nodded firmly. "We should give them a chance to prove themselves. Unlike my parents did."

There was a silence as Tam reached for Linh's hand.

"Anyone else agree?" Mr. Forkle asked.

Tam came first, followed by Biana and Dex. Soon everyone was in agreement.

"Very well," Mr. Forkle concluded. "I'll set up a time for us tomorrow." He glittered away, leaving the team to stare at each other in silence.

"Let's agree that Linh is the only one of us who makes good decisions?" Biana pleaded.

Linh shrugged, blushing. "I don't know about that."

"Can we just talk about how cool it will be to have a conjurer on our team?" Keefe said excitedly. "We'll never have to lug any stuff around with us again! Just have them snap their fingers and- boom! Instant weapons!"

"What if we have to spilt up? Dex countered.

"We'll have Foster or the Fitzter transmit to them," Keefe said, stretching. "Whew, we have a long day ahead of us."

"Which is why you should all go home and get some rest," Grady said from the stairs as Sophie wondered why she even wondered how long Grady had been eavesdropping anymore.

"See you all tomorrow, guys," Sophie called as they glittered away.

Sophie had mixed feelings as she got ready for bed that night. Mr. Forkle was right- conjuring was an underrated ability. Her head ran with all sorts of theories and possibilities about the Conjurer.

But then her memories flashed back to the strain on Edaline's face when she conjured away the falling rocks at Lumenaria. Would the new Conjurer be able to handle it?

Great. Now she had to end her procrastinating with negative thoughts. She reached out to Silveny, her head throbbing.

She definitely deserved the warmth that flooded her thoughts as Silveny transmitted, SOPHIE?

Yep, it's me, Sophie transmitted back. New person joining us tomorrow.

FRIEND? Silveny asked.

Maybe, Sophie told the alicorn. Give me some luck?

''SOPHIE! FRIEND! GOOD!'' Silveny assured her as she poured positive thoughts into Sophie's mind.

Thank god for sparkly telepathic alicorns, Sophie thought as she drifted to sleep.
