So I'm posting as many chapters as I can till the fifth. Then I'll work on another story for five days. And so on. Oh, I've also realized I've never done any disclaimers before, and now I feel super rude to Shannon.

DISCLAIMER! I do not have the ability to write 800 page books. Shannon Messenger does. I cannot type and finish one whole book each year. Shannon Messenger can. I am not able to create amazing characters with awesome backgrounds. Shannon Messenger is able to. I own my phone and Grace, Janette, Emma Lynn, Avia, Callen, Kaylana, Wade, and Hoff, plus a few other random people. Shannon Messenger owns EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Of the other characters and the Keeper of the Lost Cities books. I am not as amazing, creative, and wonderful as Shannon Messenger is. Thank God for Shannon Messesngers wonderful book series.

That was fun! Kay, Review time!

YOU CAN READ STORIES WHEN YOURE NOT CONNECTED TO WIFI— wait. Oh you have a phone, not an iPdod. Cellular data, gotcha. Okay, Thank You so much for reading!

This chapter is dedicated to my somewhat friend, Ava.

Story Time!

Avia's Secret

"Sophie!" I called. Even though I'd only just met her, I already trusted Sophie with my life. And there was something I desperately needed to share with her. Kaylana shared a secret with me today. One I couldn't shake off.

"I'll be out in a second!" Sophie called from the bathroom. I plopped down on the bed, and brushed my toes through the carpet, scattering flowers everywhere. When Sophie came out of the bathroom, I slipped past her blocking, and into her mind. Yes, I can some how do that. No, I'm not going to read her mind. Instead I transmitted.

Sophie, Kaylana shared something with me today. Can you help me figure this out?

Sure.

Thanks. I'll give you her memory.

I shoved the memory into her mind. It wasn't perfect, since I, nor Kaylana had a photographic memory. After the memory finished, Sophie sat down on the bed.

"Are you sure these are your mothers?" Sophie asked.

"Positive." I answered.

"Well, Cyrah was a Flasher and died in a light leaping accident. Oralie is an Empath, but she never married... unless..." Sophie stopped.

"Kenric." Sophie whispered. I stared at her.

"Who's Kenric?" I asked. Sophie explained he was a Councilor who died in a fire. He'd happened to have a crush on Oralie.

"Do you recognize anyone else?" I asked. Sophie nodded.

"Jolie. She's. . . Edaline and Grady's daughter."

0oo0oo0oo0

The next morning, Sophie shook me awake.

"It's the first day of Foxfire." Sophie said. I sat up.

"Wait, really?" I exclaimed. Sophie nodded, and tossed me a blue uniform.

"This. Is. Ridiculous." I said. Sophie sighed, and I glanced at her red one. Except she had a crest on hers. The Ruewen crest.

"I've been thinking about last night. And I've noticed there are only seven moms, and eight of you." Sophie said. I froze.

"What does that mean?" I asked.

"That one of you guys are actually related." Sophie said. I scanned all my friends. Emma Lynn and Janette each had blonde hair, like me, but Emma Lynn's was curled, and Janette's darker. Wade was the only one with black hair, but Kaylana and Callen have the same shade of brown. But they hated each other. Grace had chocolate brown hair, and Hoff had dirty blonde.

"So who is with who?" I asked. Sophie shrugged. We went downstairs, and ate two ripple puffs each. As we leaped away, Sophie waved to her parents. I hope some day I'll have some too.

At Foxfire, I marveled at the architecture of the place. The five story glass pyramid was astounding and vibrant blue. I squealed with delight, when I saw our sixteen person group. Actually there were two other people there as well.

"Sophie! Avia!" Grace yelled. I smiled, and hugged her. Sophie went to explain to our other extras what was happening. I caught their names. Jensi and Marella.

"It's so cool we're in the same level!" Wade exclaimed. He and Dex has been working on a gadget thingy earlier.

"Yeah, but we only really get to talk at lunch." Janette said.

"Guys, for those of you that don't know, there's something I need to tell you." Kaylana said quietly. I nodded at her, and a faint smile crossed her face.

"I found the names of our mothers." Kaylana said.

"You what?!" Grace exclaimed.
