Chapter 8 - Alone: Chapter 2

Break time--

Hours later it was time for the Break, the bells rang as students rushed out of their classes and minutes later the hallways were filled with students rushing to go where they wanted to go, Sophie looked into the bathroom mirror as she washed her face and dried her face before walking out of the bathroom, she walked through the crowd and soon she walked to the back side of the school, she looked around seeing no one and the place was silent, she then walked over to a huge wall that kept anything from coming in or out to the school.

Last night Sophie had made a plan with her run away friends how she was going to escape from the school. And the time was right and she put her plan in action. She firstly made a strong illusion of herself so that the illusion can be in the school and so no one would suspect where sophie be.

Sophie then looked up at the huge and she whistled, a few minutes later someone through down a rope from up the wall and Sophie smiled abit as she grabbed the rope. "About time.." Sophie said as a voice called out "hurry!" Sophie grins abit as she grabbed the rope tightly and she began climbing the rope as she put her feet against the wall and firmly and climbed up. A few minutes later Sophie finally made it to the other side and when she was close enough to the ground she hopped down from the rope and onto the grass and she sighed as she dusted her hands. "Thanks..." Sophie said as she looks at her friend who was quickly folding the rope. "Yes I almost got caught by the security guard...." said the girl whose name is Astrid.

Sophie and astrid began walking as Sophie put her hand around astrid's shoulder. "Well on the bright side, you didn't got caught!" Sophie said as astrid giggled and rolled her eyes "yeah right..." Astrid said

They both arrived at a river side where there was a water fall and there weren't any frowt giants around so this place was perfect for them to hang around, astrid tossed her bag on the grass as Sophie sat down on the rock and astrid gave her a water bottle and Sophie looks up at Astrid and smiles abit. "Thanks.." Sophie said as astrid nodded as Sophie chugged on the water, she placed the bottle down and she stood up and streched her legs then looked at astrid smiling "Alright let's do it!" Sophie said as Astrid gave Sophie an arrow and some arrows along with it and she grabbed hers, they began hunting for hours and after awhile later they finished their hunt and they had caught two boars and four rabbits.

Both the girls sat down in their camp as they made fire. "That was really fun" Sophie said as she rested and drank some water and Astrid nodded "yes we got two boars this time so that's a win, what till my father sees two boars" astrid said "oh your father will loose his mind that you're a better hunter than him!" Sopnie said as both girls giggled, "you helped me too silly" astrid said as Sophie smiled and she looked down. Astrid looked at Sophie and sensed something was wrong. "Something's wrong sophie?...." astrid said worried as Sophie shoke her head as she tried hiding her tears that were forming in her eyes.

astrid noticed that and she moved closer to Sophie concerned now. "Sophie?? You promised never to keep everything to yourself...." Astrid said as she held sophie's hands while looking into her eyes, Sophie burst crying.. she couldn't hold it in any longer and she had to get it off her chest.

Sophie cried as she looked down holding astrid's hands tightly "i-i need to tell you something astrid.... b-but yo-you neee to sw-swear you do-dont tell th-this to a s-soul....." Sophie said as she cried and Astrid nodded desperately. "Yes I swear i won't tell a soul I promise on my life..." astrid said as Sophie looked into astrid's eyes with her teary red eyes as her lips squivered. ".....M-My father is no-not my r-real father..." she said as she sniffled. "I-I'm a bastard...." she said as she cried, astrid looked at Sophie not shocked or surprised "that's what you've been afraid of this whole time sophie?? You're not a bastard sophie! You're the King's daughter and nothing can change that a-and don't you dare call yourself a bastard ever a-again!...." said astrid as she felt tears in her eyes.

Sophie sniffles as she looked at astrid. "Liz has finally gotten under my skin and i-i don't think I can take it any longer.... wh-what if they find out who I really am??" Sophie said as she cried and Astrid shoke her head as she hugged her friend tightly. "Soph they won't i promise you don't have to worry about them.... they don't matter okay?..." Astrid said as Sophie hugged back astrid as she sniffles . "No one will know okay? You're gonna be just fine sophie.... don't listen to them " astrid said as Sophie closed her eyes as she kept hugging teyla and she nodded abit.
