"They weren't ready."
Mr. Forkle had just returned from retrieving Sophie and Dex from Paris. After leaving them with Physic, he had gathered the collective.
They were currently in an emergency meeting.
"Who?" asked Granite.
"The Elves. They weren't ready for Sophie. Not yet. She has accomplished what we sent her to do. She put the fire out and cleared our name."
"Well, what do you expect us to do with her?" asked Wraith.
"We'll keep her. Let her join the Black Swan. We can train her to use her abilities and she can go to Exillium for skill training." replied Mr. Forkle.
"And my s- the boy?" asked Squall, her voice trembling slightly.
"Dex? We'll send him back to his family. He doesn't need to know anything, not even that Sophie is alive."
"So we trigger her abilities, train her, and then...?" Wraith trailed off.
"Then we wait." Mr. Forkle finished.
"Wait for what?" asked Blur.
"We'll know when the time is right. But for now, as far as anyone knows, Sophie Foster is dead."
