Other healers gathered around Sophia’s crumpled form at the bottom of the stairs. I stood frozen at the top. my hand still extended from where she’d grabbed it.

Director Henry Baker arrived with several institute leaders just as Sophia was being helped up. Blood trickled from a cut on her forehead.

“What happened here?” Director Henry Baker demanded, his eyes moving between me and Sophia.

“Elena pushed her down the stairs!” one of the witnesses exclaimed.

“I saw it with my own eyes!”
