Sophie put on her weird spy uniform it had a black long sleeve shirt aswell as a matching short sleeved one but since it was still fall she decided to where the long sleeve one their was also a cargo pants and shorts again she chose the long one the fit had green detailes, sophie noticed the same lines outside on the F's side of the wall, in the drawer where a bunch of strap on pockets, holsters and other sort of form of carriage of things. Since she still had Ro's dagger she slipped it in a strap above her right knee that way she could reach it easily.


Sophie glanced around the common room, trying to shake off the weight of her first day. Leaving everything behind—her family, her old life, and Keefe—felt like a hollow ache in her chest. She was surrounded by new faces, but none of them felt familiar yet."Sup, Soph? How's your room?" Jay asked, his playful tone pulling her back to reality."It's fine," she replied, forcing a casualness she didn't quite feel. She was still trying to wrap her head around this place and what it meant for her.


Dow smirked, her arms crossed. "You'll get used to it. Just don't be surprised if the food sucks. The last person who complained got stuck with the dish duty for a month." "Great," Sophie muttered, anxiety creeping back. Will rolled her eyes, brushing a lock of  hair behind her ear and clipping it with a hairclip. "Honestly, you'll be fine. Just keep your head down and don't get in the way."


"Thanks for the pep talk," Sophie shot back, a hint of sarcasm creeping into her voice. As they went to the dining hall they sat down for dinner, Sophie tried to focus on the lively banter, but her thoughts kept drifting back to Keefe. She wondered how he was coping without her.


Just then, Danny strolled by with a precarious stack of tacos. "Hey, Soph! If you need any tips on stealing stuff, I'm your guy!" he quipped, this startled sophie she hasn't been here for 3 hours yet and they already knew her name.


When Team Fable strutted in, the air shifted. Their leader, a tall figure with an arrogant grin, caught Sophie's gaze, and she felt a chill run down her spine."Stay sharp," Dow said, her tone turning serious as she eyed the newcomers. "They'll try to mess with you.""Great, just what I need," Sophie replied, rolling her eyes. "Like I'm not nervous enough already."


After dinner, they gathered in the common room to strategize for the upcoming skills game. Will pointed to a map, marking out their plan with an intensity that felt almost suffocating. "Team Fable is ruthless. If we don't hit them hard, we'll get crushed." "Right, but it's still three months away," Sophie said, trying to make sense of it all. "What if I'm not ready?""Then you better figure it out fast," Will shot back, her tone flat. "Will, she's new." Dow tried to remind her sister "We don't have time for weakness." she interrupted "Charming," Sophie muttered under her breath witch made Jay laugh.


As they prepared for practice, Sophie felt the pressure mounting. She was still trying to find her footing, and the thought of competing was intimidating. "We'll show them what we've got," Jay said, his enthusiasm cutting through the tension. Sophie squared her shoulders, determination flickering within her. She couldn't let her nerves get the best of her—not now. That's when she decided that she will be the Moonlark the genetic experiment the Black Swan intended her to be not Sophie Foster that's her sole right now she was living in her shadow "Let's beat these jerks."
