Soar:
The story of a superhero
By Zoe Wynns
To all those that wish to soar,
I hope this book helps you spread your wings.
These kids will have to be bold and smart if
they are to survive the challenges in store for them…
I looked around our prison room. The walls were damp and smelled of mildew, and even if we got out of the cage, we probably couldn’t fit into the space between the cage and the edges of the room. I stuck my hand out from one of the iron bars and could barely touch the walls. There was no way anyone, even Ty or Etty, could squeeze out from them.
“So, how do we get out of here, fearless leader?” Ty squeaked to me.
Davies, who had been quiet since we got captured, said, “It’s obvious. We’re stuck down here. Never to get out or see daylight again.”
“Whoa, naysayer. Stop right there. We will get out. It’s just a matter of how,” Winnie told him.
But I couldn’t help silently agreeing with Davies.
“So… any ideas?” Cat asked us. “With all our brains together, I’m sure we can figure something out.”
“Right,” Josef muttered.
“Josef, you could maybe fireball the ceiling and the Flyers could fly us out,” suggested Winnie.
Josef tried. But we couldn’t see a single spark.
“Looks like Josef ruins all our hopes and dreams, again,” Lily said nastily.
We all settled ourselves into silent thinking. I tried to figure out a way to get out, but soon, I realized we were doomed.
But there was one prospect I hadn’t planned for.
