The dark figure reappeared by the girl, gasping for her breath. He grabbed her arm and she struggled. He placed a knife by her neck.
"Hush now..." He whispered to her. She struggled and rolled away from him. She got up onto her feet and glared at him. 
"You! Give me! The Focus!" She shouted, pointing at the stone in his hand. He laughed at her. She gelt anger flare up inside her and a surge of power.
"Flaming Havoc!" She yelled as a flaming wind blasted its way, making the figure drop the stone. He disappeared and Sophie picked up the stone. She tried to make it's power work but failed. She ran to Vslguis and knelt beside him.
"It doesn't work Valgius!" She cried at him.
