Abigail looked past the twins, keeping a small eye on the group, and just in time to see Zuuka collapse because of his laces. He saw the other two fall first, thought he might not have fallen victim to that she thought to herself before the twins started talking to her. One stepped in front of the other and spoke, in an somewhat hostile tone. “I don’t mean to come off as aggressive.” She quickly said, and then the other one stepped out and spoke to her in a much softer tone than his brother.

“The name is Abigail, Abigail Morningtide. And that girl over there? Her name is Alison and she just got injured because her laces got tied.” Abigail said referencing towards Alison currently stitching herself up. She wasn’t mad, just annoyed and disappointed. The situation could have been worse, but it also could have been avoided completely. The second one tried to give an almost puppy look. She had seen it once before when a recruit tried to convince Abigail to help him dessert, but she quickly turned him over to her father directly. “I would suggest at the minimum to maybe apologize to her. The little things mean a lot. But you two are independent and don’t have to do anything I say. I wish you both a great rest of your day.” She said as she walked past them back towards the table.

Abigail walked over to Zuuka, but talked to the entire group. “Hope you all aren’t too injured.” She quickly untied the knot in Zuuka’s laces. “Alison, that’s a very good skill you have there. Top notch stitch work, some medics I know would be very impressed.” She said a straight face, but trying to be helpful. As she got done helping Zuuka, she sat back down and finished her sparkling water. “Luke, you missed a spot.” She said to him across the table and leaned over and wiped some off of his chin that he couldn’t see, with a slight smile. “So, I say we go to our dorms. I wonder if my father was able to secure that private room.” She said out loud tidying up her plate.

Zoning out a little, Abigail thought back to the bully who talked about Zuuka and the Aegis. She was still shocked that it was real, let alone Zuuka got it. What would Abigail’s Father do? He probably already confronted Mr. Blacklight about it. Aegis could turn wars and battles, even with just the storage that Zuuka showed off. Soldiers could use that store supplies and be less encumbered. Could it store vehicles and heavy ordnance? Abigail glanced over at Zuuka in the middle of her thoughts.
