PREFACE
This NEEDS to stop.

Sophie was tired of them ruining EVERYTHING.

It was time to stop being scared.

It was time to start fighting back for real this time.

She would give everything that she had.

She owed it to Sandor.

She owed it to everybody.

It was time to start being what she was meant to be.

The Moonlark.

She charged into battle.

Chapter 1:
Sophie

''Keefe? Keefe where are you?'' Sophie transmitted. Sophie went over the note Keefe left on her bed on top of Iggy’s cage. Sophie read that Keefe was hiding just like the Black Swan hid her. It was a little on the money but the first thing that came to Sophie’s mind was San Diego. While Stina checked London with Wylie, Sophie was checking her old home with Dex and Biana. Tam decided to stay with Glimmer and Biana did NOT look very happy about it. Then of course, Dex started to look a little annoyed and his face turned 50 shades of  “Come on! What about me?!” Biana looked over and blushed, took Dex and Sophie by the hand and they teleported to San Diego.

''Keefe! Come on where are you?'' Sophie transmitted. Sophie turned the corner and looked at the supermarket her and her parents used to get E.L.Fudges at. ''E.L.Fudges! That’s it! Keefe must be hungry so why not go here?!'' It was Sophie’s first lead all morning so she transmitted to Biana and Dex where she was heading and to meet her by the nearest landmark between their two locations.

Meet me at the Bob Hope statue. Sophie explained. Who’s Bob Hope? Dex thought. He entertained the troops during World War II. Sophie transmitted. ''Humans had TWO world wars? Humans are a violent bunch.'' Biana said. ''Yes they are. Now just meet me at Bob Hope’s statue. And please be inconspicuous! We don’t need hordes of high schoolers surrounding you guys. I’ll hopefully be there in 20 minutes.'' Sophie said as she transmitted a picture of the statue to Dex and Biana. On it Lady Fos-Boss! Dex exclaimed. Sophie rolled her eyes and severed the connection.

Chapter 2:
Sophie

THE FLASHBACK

Sophie walked into the supermarket. She was so tired. She had barely slept since Keefe ran away. So many thoughts ran through her head as she read that letter. ''Why is he such a knucklehead? Why does he always have to be so reckless? Why did he leave all of us? Why did he leave me?'' Then she read the final words. Love, Keefe. Those words repeated in her head for hours getting louder each time. In her sleep, she had dreams of those wonderful ice blue eyes looking at her and the words kept repeating over and over until she had enough. She called a meeting with Team Valiant. She grabbed her imparter. “Show me Dex Dizznee, Wylie Endal, Biana Vacker and Stina Heks.” Sophie whispered into her imparter.

“Sophie Foster there is absolutely NO reason to be calling a meeting at TWO am!” Stina exclaimed. Her curly hair was super puffy and was sticking out at odd angles. She was currently trying to smooth it out. “As much as I hate to do this, I agree with Stina.” Dex said. His hair on the other hand was strangely perfect. He was probably already up at the time of the call doing some technopath-y things. “Well,” Sophie started, “Keefe is...missing.” Sophie expected some screaming or crying. All she got was a stunned silence. Wylie was staring blankly into space. Stina was playing with her hair and staring down at her feet with a surprised look on her face. Biana looked as if she was ready to run away and tell her brother and parents. Dex looked as if he was going to punch something. Then Dex whispered, “That idiot.” “What do you mean Dex?” Sophie whispered. “I mean, Keefe is a reckless idiot and I should’ve seen this coming. If I didn’t make an ability restrictor, he probably would’ve run away!” Dex exclaimed. “Well at least we know what happened. Now we have to find him!” Biana said. “And where exactly would we start?” Wylie countered. “San Diego. He said he was hiding the same way the Black Swan hid me. I know it’s a little on the money but it seems like something Keefe would do.” Sophie said.

“As much as I want to believe that Sophie, we should probably look in some other places too!” Wylie said. “Well then, we’ll split into two groups. I will take Dex and Biana to San Diego and you and Stina will go to… London. Bring your Imparters!” Sophie told Wylie. “Ok but can we please do this tomorrow? It’s too late now!” Stina whined. “Fine! I will drop off human clothes to each of your houses tomorrow. Make sure to change into them and meet here at Havenfield at 9:00 am!” Sophie said. “Ok!” They all exclaimed. Then their faces disappeared from the screen.

The next day, one by one, the members of Team Valiant appeared on Havenfield’s emerald green lawn. Sophie handed a blue leaping crystal to Wylie and Stina. “Be careful!” She said. “Of course.” They said. Stina held the crystal up to the light and they promptly glittered away. Sophie walked over to Dex and Biana. They all walked over to the cliff. Sophie turned to both of them. “Are you ready?” Sophie whispered. “Always.” Biana said. “Are you?” Dex asked. “Like you said, always.” Sophie remembered her youth and when she read about Severus Snape. After this jump, she would return to her youth again, revisiting San Diego. This brought up a strange sense of nostalgia. Not the same nostalgia as looking through her photo album. This was different. It was like the future and the past were coming together. With that, they jumped, and plummeted straight into the void.
