"Sophie and Linh are my kid sisters!" I said

"Sophie and Linh are my kid sisters!" I said. I don't know how, but they managed to find their way into my heart.

"They're all our kid sisters." Darry said.

"Hey, what's up?" Fitz said, as he walked in with Tam. Where are Sophie and Linh?

"Where were you?"

"Where's Sophie?" I asked. She's like Pony, a dreamer. And smart. Wow, she was a twelve year old high school senior. She's fourteen now.

"Where's Linh?" Steve shouted.

"They're with Dallas." Tam said, "If either of them come back with a scratch, I'll kill him."

"What happened?" Darry asked, pointing to their jaws. Ouch. Those are some nasty lookin' bruises.

"We got jumped." Fitz said, "Tam scared them off."

"They are so going to hell." Tam muttered.

"What exactly did you do?" Darry asked.

"This." Tam said, as the shadows thickened around him. Then he shouted, "You have harmed my friends, and my allies! For that, you will go to hell!" His voice went real deep.

"Cool!" Two-Bit shouted.

"That would make the Socs run." Steve said.

"Ya sure it wouldn't make you run?" I teased, "Ya looked like ya were about to pee your pants."

"Brant and Fintan also have that effect." Fitz muttered.

"Brant's dead. You're such a worrier." Tam groaned.

"Brant scarred them!" Fitz shouted, "Fintan killed Councillor Kenric! He also burned down Eternalia! He started Everblaze and got his ability banished! Marella has to be labeled as Talentless!" That's a lot of problems for a fifteen year old kid.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Calm down. People die. Maybe he died too soon, but it's a part of life." Darry said.

"Um, about that. You see, Fintan's a couple thousand years old. So's Councillor Bronte." Tam said.

"Couple thousand?" How old do they live for?

"How?"

"What?"

"Calla was at least four thousand years old, before she sacrificed herself." Fitz whispered. That led to a whole new round of questions. They did their best to answer all the questions, before we thought of more. By the time we got all our questions answered, it was noon.

"I'm gonna make lunch. Any preferences?" Darry asked, getting up from the couch.

CRACK! There's a large crack, and Sophie and Linh land in a heap on the floor in front of the TV, blocking two-Bit's view of Mickey Mouse.
