THIRTY-ONE
SOPHIE! FRIEND! HI! SILVENY SAID the next morning, back to her
usual energy level—which was an enormous relief. But it also meant
the poor mama alicorn must’ve been wearing herself out trying to help
Sophie with her dreams, and that needed to stop—immediately.
BUT SOPHIE NIGHTMARES! Silveny argued when Sophie broke
the news.
I’ll be fine, Sophie assured her. The sedative worked perfectly.
She decided not to mention that she’d spent most of the night
dreaming about sparkly pineapples dancing around in hot pink tutus
while wearing giant sunglasses and smiling at her. She could live with
the outlandish imagery if it kept Silveny strong and healthy.
We’re still going to check in every night, Sophie added—not making it
optional. And if you try to ignore me, I WILL track you down—and bring
Vika with me.
It wasn’t an idle threat. All of Silveny’s recent memories kept
showing the same rolling seaside hills, which probably meant that was
where the alicorns were currently staying. So all Sophie would have to
do is jump into the void and picture those grass-covered dunes. Then
her teleporting would take her straight to the alicorns.
She was tempted to grab Edaline and do exactly that—but that
might freak Silveny out and make her teleport away, which wasn’t
worth the risk.
