It's a warm but cool morning in Southampton. We see a honey blonde girl waking up, she got up and began walking towards her dresser to collect the clothes she would be wearing.
After she took a shower and got dressed, she got out and began jogging around the stadium she called home. As she ran somebody called out to her.
"Isabelle! Wait Up For Me!" Isabelle turned around to see another girl, who had striking black hair and green eyes. "So, you managed to wake up early now ey Mika?" She turned to see Mika who was stretching for their run around the pitch. "Yep, I did. Well, I'm ready for the run, come on!" Mika said with enthusiatic tone. Isabelle followed her as they began jogging.
Meanwhile back at the stadium we see the rest of the White Stars just eating breakfast and awaiting the return of Isabelle and Mika.
"So, When's captain and Mika comimg back?" Asked the boy, he turned to face a boy with black hair and red eyes. "I don't know Raymond, I don't know." The boy said, Raymond raised an eyebrow. "So, V.M, nobody had seen Isabelle and Mika all morning? Not even Cassandra or Genelle or Zianna or even Marielle?" Raymond said in a rather annoyed tone. "Look, Raymond. There's no need to go into a tizzy over Captain. You could train by yourself. Just look at how Acel, Matthew and Tristan are doing." Another boy said. "Well, Gershon, How about you find those two and tell them to begin training. I want to destroy those peasky players from Liverpool!" Raymond said, his voice bellowed across the room, sending Gershon scared to his bones. "Y-yes, sir." Gershon said, he walked out the room, as he exited three girls walked in. One had red eyes and black hair, the other had brown and had purple eyes. The last one also had brown hair but had green eyes.
"So, you sending Gershon to do more of your work, Ey Raymond?" The black haired girl asked, "Cassandra, please. Tell me where Isabelle is." "I don't even know where the flying fuck she is."
As Isabelle and Mika continued their jog, enjoying the crisp morning air. Mika glanced over at Isabelle and broke the comfortable silence. "So, what’s on today’s agenda for training?" she asked, her breath steady despite the pace.
Isabelle, with a small smile, replied, "We’ve got to focus on stamina and teamwork drills. Liverpool’s midfield is strong, and we need to outlast them."
Back at the stadium, the atmosphere grew tense. Raymond was pacing back and forth, clearly agitated. Gershon had just left, and the tension in the room was palpable.
Cassandra rolled her eyes at Raymond’s frustration. "Raymond, seriously, you need to chill. Isabelle and Mika are just out for a run. They’ll be back soon."
Raymond scowled. "We don’t have time for everyone to be doing their own thing. We need to be united, focused."
The girl with brown hair and purple eyes, Genelle, chimed in, "Maybe they’re just getting some extra training in. It’s not like Isabelle to slack off."
Raymond’s eyes narrowed. "That’s not the point, Genelle. The point is, we need to be a team. If they want to do extra training, fine, but we need to know where everyone is."
Zianna, the girl with green eyes, nodded. "Raymond’s right. Communication is key. But, yelling at everyone isn’t helping either."
Marielle, who had been quietly eating her breakfast, finally spoke up. "Look, why don’t we just wait a few more minutes? Isabelle knows the schedule. If she’s not back soon, then we’ll go look for her."
Raymond sighed and sat down, running a hand through his hair. "Fine. But if they’re not back in ten minutes, I’m going out there myself."
Meanwhile, Isabelle and Mika finished their run and started to cool down, stretching near the edge of the pitch. Isabelle glanced at her watch. "We should head back. Don’t want Raymond throwing a fit."
