"AGHH!" Sophie screamed. Elwin, Allden, Biana, Fitz, Keefe, Dex, Grady, Edaline, and Mr. Forkle gathered around Sophie in the healing center.
"Sophie, are you okay!?" Elwin frantically examined her with an orange glowing sphere of light. Sophie continued to moan of agony. "I'm so sorry everyone but–,"
"Yup. Out!" Keefe's hands were pressed to his head as he squirmed out with everyone else. Mr. Forkle stayed put.
"Sophie, are you okay?" Elwin asked calmly. Sophie's hands were still pressed to her head. She had the worst migraine of her life. Words and thoughts that did not belong to her flooded her mind.
Sophie took a deep breath and attempted to open her eyes. "Ouch!" She screeched. Her hands moved to her temples.
"Sophie what's going on?" Elwin asked as Mr. Forkle invaded her mind.
Sophie? Please explain to us what you're experiencing? Mr. Forkle transmitted.
"I CAN HEAR YOU! I CAN HEAR YOU!" Sophie announced loudly.
Yes, I know Sophie. I'm transmitting–
"I CAN HEAR YOU! I CAN HEAR ALL OF YOU!" Sophie screeched with her hands to her ears.
Sophie's mind raced with many jumbled thoughts. Why can I hear them? I'm not even invading their minds? WHY CAN I FEEL THEM?
Mr. Forkle gasped. Sophie, try to put up your blocking! Mr. Forkle frantically transmitted.
I CAN'T. I CAN'T IT HURTS. PLEASE IT HURTS. Sophie's mind screeched. Elwin jumped.
"Did you hear her?" Mr. Forkle shifted towards Elwin. Elwin nodded with worry.
Elwin raced to her stash of elixirs to find pain medicine. Sophie gulped it down. Her breathing slowed.
"Ahh. Okay. Ok ok…" Sophie mumbled to herself. "AH!" Sophie screamed again as Elwin's hand made contact with her forehead.
WHY CAN I FEEL THOUGHTS? WHY AM I-? Sophie's mind rambled, her eyes still closed. Keefe shuffled inside with his eyes focused on Sophie.
"Keefe, Sophie doesn't need anymore people in here." Elwin demanded. Keefe stayed silent, still staring at Sophie.
"I think I understand what's going on," Keefe said, his eyes shifting to Elwin.
"You heard her too, didn't you?" Elwin asked numbly. Keefe nodded.
"I think she's an… empath," Keefe said, fiddling with his soft hands.
Sophie's eyes shot open straight at Keefe. Feelings of love and comfort filled her mind. But I'm not feeling emotions there… filling my mind? Sophie thought, knowing everyone could hear her accidental transmissions.
She glanced back at Mr. Forkle. This is… interesting… I… wait. Sophie, can you hear me? Mr. Forkle's mind flooded Sophie's.
I'm so glad she's okay! Keefe's mind added to the pile of voices. Elwin's mind was rambling about elixirs.
"It's like your minds are as weak as humans… I can hear…" Sophie clutched her temples. All of your thoughts… Sophie finished mentally.
