Linh

                                    

                                          
Breakfast slid in through a slot in the door, and Linh was surprised that the Neverseen had even bothered. Last night, they had asked a bunch of questions, all which Linh and Percy refused to answer.
                          
On their trays were some kind of purple glop. "What the heck?" Percy sniffed his breakfast. "Is this even edible? Looks like silly putty." 
                          
"I'm actually not sure." Linh glared at the glop. "But since I'm hungry, I'm going to be brave." She took the spoon and slowly swallowed the mouthful. "Hmmm...It's actually okay." The glop tasted slightly sugary with a citrus tang.
                          
Percy poked his glop anyways with his spoon. "Okay...I'm also going to be brave. Really, really brave."
                          
"Um, weren't you eating a blue sandwich before?" Linh asked.
                          
"That was different." Percy spooned the glop in his mouth. "It would be better if it were blue," he remarked, shrugging. "But it tastes okay."
                          
The two finished their glop silently after that when the door opened and a figure entered. "I am to escort you two to your interrogator. Stand up." Linh knew him.
                          
"What happens if we take you down now?" Percy demanded. "I could. We could. We could just drown you now. Water is close by." Percy was bluffing, because Linh couldn't sense any water.
                          
"I wouldn't recommend it," the man answered curtly. To prove it, a giant ball of fire appeared in front of them. Percy backed up.
                          
"Ah, Linh, we meet again," said the man, nodding.
                          
"Brant," she whispered.
                          
"I have to say, I forgot to thank the Moonlark and her friends for finishing him off." He scowled.
                          
"Fintan deserved it," Linh said, pointing her chin up.
                          
"Liar," Brant sneered. Before Linh knew what was happening, Brant flicked a small ball of flame at her. Linh could feel it burning while trying to put it out. She had tears in her eyes, but refused to let them drop. She wouldn't be taken down so easily.
                          
She didn't need her powers to fling a glass of water at his ugly face, recently even more scarred and bruised. Sophie had fired a medler at his stump arm, and Linh could still see the wound.
                          
Brant sputtered. His clothes were all wet. "That's what you get!" Said Percy.
                          
Brant probably wanted to kill both Percy and Linh at that moment, but he only narrowed his eyes. "Come now. Lady Gisela is waiting for both of you."
