Bow arrived at school early Monday morning. He sighed in relief as he entered the school, glad to escape the cold outside. It was the time of year again where he couldn't wear his crop-tops due to the cold. And this always hit Bow pretty hard since a good majority of his wardrobe lacked a midriff.

But this morning Bow was feeling pretty good. He had slept well the night before and had a really cool dream about saving a pod of whales. And now he was looking forward to his school day and he was excited for the week.

He tugged at the sweater he wore, finding it uncomfortably restricting, as he made his way to his locker. He waved to a few people in the halls and they waved back.

Bow was well liked at the school. He was one of those kids that everybody had a pretty good opinion of. He never started anything and he was always nice to people.

He stopped on his way and helped a janitor carry some of their supplies. Bow regularly talked to the janitors and knew all of their names. The janitor thanked Bow for his help and gave him a stick of gum, which he chewed on joyfully as he made his way down the halls.

He was passing by the bathrooms and humming a little tune when he spotted Scorpia, who was standing outside the girl's bathroom and looking around at the ground, a confused look on her face.

"Good morning, Scorpia," Bow said cheerfully. "Are you alright?"

"Huh?" Scorpia said, turning to face him. "Oh hey, Bow. Uh...I...hmmm…" Scorpia turned back around and began scanning the floor again.

Bow looked over her shoulder and didn't see anything. "Uh. Whatcha looking for?"

"My backpack. I put it out here against the wall before I went to the bathroom and now it's…not there."

"Oh no," Bow said. "What's it look like?"

"It's like real big and black and has a bunch of little, uh, what are they called? The little…" Scorpia frantically pantomimed zipping up an invisible bag.

"Oh zippers!"

"Yeah zippers!" Scorpia said, snapping her fingers together.

"Well let's see…" Bow looked around the immediate vicinity and didn't see a bag matching the description anywhere near them. "I don't see it."

"Yeah I don't either. Maybe someone…"

"Someone stole it!" Bow exclaimed.

"Well I don't know if they stole it," Scorpia said uneasily. "They probably just accidentally took it?"

Bow narrowed his eyes. "Oh sweet Scorpia. So blind to the evils of the world. This looks like the textbook work of a bag thief."

"But why would they take my bag? I love that bag."

Bow clapped a hand onto Scorpia's shoulder. "Some people are just cruel. But you're in luck! I happen to know a top notch spy who can easily help you track down the culprit!"

"Who?" Scorpia asked curiously.

Bow smiled and fished around in his backpack pocket for a moment. After a few seconds of fumbling with it, he whipped out a pair of shades that he quickly opened and placed on his face. "Me."

"Oh wow that does make you look like a spy."

"I know right!? And they were on sale!" Bow exclaimed. "But we need to get back to the case."

"Oh right," Scorpia said, nodding along.

"Do you have any enemies? Anyone who would have a motive?"

"Hmm," Scorpia thought for a moment, scratching at her head. "I don't think so. Well. Wait. The other day someone got mad at me cuz I took a parking spot before they could."

"Oooh hmmm," Bow said slowly. "That could be our motive!"

"I'm sure it was just an accident, Bow. Maybe we should ask the office?"

"Oh no of course not. The office won't have the intel we need yet. And if they put out an announcement then the thief will dump the back and it'll never be seen again."

"I have a bunch of trail mix in there," Scorpia said, frowning.

"Scorpia I promise you we're gonna find your trail mix if it's the last thing I do."

"Thanks, Bow."

"Now let's go find our first suspect."


After slowly walking through the cafeteria and having Scorpia identify everyone she saw, she eventually spotted the person who had gotten upset with her the other morning.

Bow excitedly led Scorpia over to the table where they were eating their breakfast.

Bow immediately pulled out a chair and sat down at the table in the seat across from him. Scorpia slowly followed suit.

The guy looked up from his cereal and eyed both of them. There was a boy wearing shades staring at him intensely and a worried looking girl who was looking under the table for something.

"Good morning," Bow said formally. "How's your cereal?"

"Uh... good? Who are you people?" The boy said, more than a little confused.

"Ha!" Bow exclaimed. "We're the ones asking the questions. Do you recognize this woman?" He gestured to Scorpia who smiled and waved at the boy.

"Uh... I've seen her around I guess, but I don't know her."

"Oh I'm Scorpia, nice to meet you," Scorpia said quickly.

"No, don't fraternize with the suspect!" Bow demanded.

"Suspect?" The boy asked.

Bow chuckled. "He's in denial. Where were you, like, ten minutes ago?"

"Um...here I guess," the boy answered. "I don't understand…"

"Well I don't buy it. And my partner doesn't either." Bow looked to Scorpia.

"Oh I'm the partner!" Scorpia realized. "Uh…did you steal my bag?"

"Your bag?" The boy asked.

"Yeah it's big and black and has a lot of zippers," Scorpia explained.

"Um. No," the boy answered, shifting uncomfortably in his chair.

"But you got mad at my partner just the other day did you not!? For stealing your parking spot?" Bow confronted the boy.

"Well I wouldn't say I stole it," Scorpia added.

"Oh yeah," the student said, slowly remembering. "I mean I did get a little mad I guess. But I was just having a bad day. Sorry."

"Aw," Scorpia said caringly. "I forgive you."

"Well," Bow intervened. "Don't forgive him just yet. He could be lying!"

"I don't know, he seems genuine," Scorpia disagreed.

"Thank you," the confused boy said helplessly. "What is happening?"

Bow looked him over and then studied his cereal. "It does seem that his cereal is pretty soggy. If he had taken your bag and then hid it and then gotten cereal it would still be all crunchy."

"Oh cool," Scorpia said. "That's some good spy work!"

"That's right," Bow said, lowering his shades to stare at the boy they were interrogating. "You're free to go. Me and my partner have other people to shake down."

Bow stood up from the table and Scorpia followed him as they left the table.

"It was nice meeting you!" Scorpia called back to the boy as they walked off.

"That went well, partner," Bow said with a smile. "We really fell into a good cop/bad cop dynamic."

"Yeah we did! This is actually kinda fun. But if it wasn't him then who was it?"

"Good question. I think it's time we question the witnesses."

"Shouldn't we have maybe done that first?"

"Probably yes."


"Okay, who do you remember being here at the bathroom? When you went in and when you went out." Bow and Scorpia were back at the bathrooms and Scorpia was thinking back to the event.

"I'm not really sure. I'm not too good with faces. Hmmm…" Scorpia scanned the surrounding lockers. She stopped and pointed at a boy who was packing things into his locker across the hall. "Oh! Daniel was at his locker when it happened! I remember cuz he has that cat poster in his locker and I thought it was cute."

"A lead," Bow said with a grin. "Let's go question him. Here you can take the shades this time."

"Oh sick!" Scorpia said with a chuckle as she grabbed the glasses from Bow and slipped them on.

The pair walked up to the guy who was at his locker and he turned around as he heard them approach. He looked surprised to see them.

"Hey Bow. Hey Scorpia. What's up?" He asked. "Nice shades."

"Thanks Daniel!" Scorpia said, adjusting the glasses. "But we ask the questions!"

Bow looked surprised. "Oh shoot, am I good cop now?"

Scorpia nodded and Bow readjusted his approach. "Hey Daniel. We were just wondering if we could ask you some questions."

He smiled crookedly and looked Bow over. "You can call me Dani. And sure. What do you wanna know?"

"That's another question, Dani," Scorpia interrupted. "We ask the questions."

"Oh yeah sorry," Dani apologized.

"No it's alright," Bow quickly assured him. "We're wondering if you might have seen anybody take Scorpia's backpack from right over there when you were at your locker this morning?"

"It's big and black and has a lot of zippers," Scorpia added.

Dani cocked his head to one side and thought about it for a while. "I'm not sure...well...there was one thing I remember. I don't know if she stole your backpack, but that senior girl, Shauna King, got in a big argument with someone and things were getting pretty heated. Mr. Hordak had to come and chew them out."

"Shauna yeah," Bow said slowly. "I've heard she's pretty rough and tumble. Maybe she stole that bag out of spite!"

"Well we better find her and question her," said Scorpia, who was starting to enjoy the search for the bag.

"That's our next suspect then," Bow agreed. "Thanks Dani."

"Sure thing," he said casually. "Have you tried checking with the office?"

"No, Bow said this is a delicate operation," Scorpia answered.

Bow nodded. "It's true. We can't trust the higher-ups with this."

Dani laughed. "Alright well let me know how it goes. You, uh, you want my number? That way you can, like, text me when you find it." He looked at Bow when he asked this.

"Oh yeah sure," Bow said. He exchanged numbers with Dani. Scorpia watched on, a small smile in her face.

"Well I gotta go," Dani said. "But I hope that bag turns up. It was nice talking to you guys. I'll see you in art class, Bow. It was nice talking to you."

"Yeah see you," Bow replied as Dani shouldered his bag and left.

Bow turned back around to Scorpia. "Alright so Shauna King is our next…...why are you making that face?"

Scorpia was smiling and starting at Bow with a funny expression. "You mean you don't know?"

"Know what?"

"Dani was sooo into you," Scorpia said tauntingly.

Bow looked surprised and looked back over his shoulder to where Dani had left. "What? No he was just…" Bow paused. "Oh...oh dang maybe you're right."

Scorpia poked at Bow's arm. "He was giving you the eyes, Bow. It's a good thing you weren't bad cop!"

Bow smiled and rubbed at his neck. "Yeah I guess so." He looked back down the hall. Then he shook his head. "Anyway, there's no time for distractions!"

"Even if the distraction is Dani?" Scorpia crooned.

Bow looked a little flustered at this. "Let's...let's just go find our suspect." He took off down the hall and Scorpia followed, laughing loudly.


"Okay there she is," Bow told Scorpia, motioning to Shauna, their suspect, whose back was to them.

"Do you think she really took it?" Scorpia asked. "I mean, why would she?"

"I don't know. She was in an argument. Got in trouble. Probably got mad about that and figured she better steal a backpack."

"That doesn't really track but I won't disagree," Scorpia said. She took off the shades and handed them over to Bow. "Your turn to be bad cop."

"Challenge accepted," Bow said as he donned the shades.

The pair made their way over to Shauna and Bow cleared his throat. "Hey, you," he said, trying to sound tough.

Shauna turned around with a scowl on her face, annoyed by the greeting and looked down at Bow. Shauna was big. Not as muscular or as tall as Scorpia, but her attitude made her feel bigger than she was. "What do you two want?" She asked with a grunt.

Bow's tough-guy charade fell apart immediately. "Uh...we...uh…"

Scorpia butted in to try and help her partner. "Hello ma'am. I'm Scorpia and this is Bow. Nice to meet you! We were wondering if we could ask you some questions ab…"

"Not interested," Shauna said dismissively and turned back around to talk to her friends.

Bow and Scorpia looked at one another defeatedly.

"Well that didn't go well," Scorpia said.

"Yeah no kidding. She's scary. I don't deserve to wear these glasses."

"Oh don't say that. You're a great bad cop." Scorpia reassured him. "But it is almost time for class and I don't have my bag."

"Okay fine. We should probably go check the lost and found then."

"You sure?"

"Yeah," he said defeatedly, taking off the glasses. "It's probably just sitting there."

The two walked over to the office and asked to see the lost and found. The person at the front desk led them to a small room. Scorpia and Bow looked around and immediately realized that the bag wasn't there.

"Well that's actually problematic," Bow said.

"So someone must have actually taken it then," Scorpia said thoughtfully. "We just have to actually find out who."

Bow frowned. "Well but class starts soon and you probably need your bag for your classes, huh?"

"Well not really. I don't need anything for my first two classes. But I do have homework still in there for my culinary class later today."

"Okay so we have till after lunch!" Bow said, a spark of hope returning to him. "We can still find it!"

"Yeah we can sure try," Scorpia said, grinning at his enthusiasm. "I'll meet you at lunch and we can keep looking. Except...our only lead is Shauna and she doesn't wanna talk."

"You know…" Bow said thoughtfully. "I think we both know someone who can handle Shauna."


"You want me to what?" Catra asked, arms crossed.

"Get Shauna to tell us if she took my backpack," Scorpia explained. "We think it was her but she scared us."

Catra snorted. "Yeah sure, whatever. But...what about lunch?"

"Scorpia and I grabbed a bunch of muffins from the kitchen!" Bow said as he held up a bag of muffins.

"Oh joy," Catra said sarcastically as she looked back at the lunch line behind her. "Okay where is she?"

Scorpia and Bow led Catra over to the cafeteria and quickly spotted Shauna.

"There she is," Scorpia said. "Do you want the shades?"

"What? No I don't want the…well...yeah hand 'em over." Catra put on the shades and walked over to Shauna's table, Bow and Scorpia in tow.

Catra sat down at the table right in front of Shauna and Bow and Scorpia stood standing behind her.

"Not you guys again," Shauna said angrily.

"Hey," Catra said. "We have some questions about a backpack."

"What is it with you guys?" Shauna asked, getting annoyed.

Catra sighed. "Look, Shauna, I'm gonna be honest with you. These two are kind of idiots. But they're also my idiots. So can you just answer the questions?"

"Why should I?" She countered.

"Why shouldn't you?" Catra snapped back immediately. "Heard you got in a fight today. How was that?"

"Not sure why you care. But it sucked. I have detention for the next few weeks thanks to Mr. Hordak."

Catra chuckled at this. "Screw that guy. You know I put bologna on his car one time?"

Shauna raised an eyebrow. "You liar."

"Cross my heart and hope to die," Catra said, raising her hands. "And it was so hot outside. You should've seen him when he saw it. Proudest moment of my life."

Shauna studied Catra for a moment before smiling in approval. "That sounds pretty awesome."

"I'm pretty cool, yeah." Catra responded as she reached a hand out across the table. "Catra."

"I'm Shauna," the girl said as she shook Catra's hand. "What did you guys wanna ask me?"

Bow started to speak but Catra spoke first. "Did you happen to see a backpack today? Scorpia can't find it and they think someone took it."

"It's all black and has just a bunch of zippers on it," Scorpia mentioned.

Shauna thought about it. "No I haven't. Sorry."

Bow and Scorpia sighed and Catra pushed her chair back.

"No that's fine," Catra answered. "Thanks for helping out. You seem cool."

Shauna smiled. "Yeah you too. Hey just a thought…"

Catra, who had been walking away, turned back to face Shauna.

"Aren't there security cameras in the school? Couldn't you check those?"

"Not a bad idea at all," Catra said with a grin. "We'd just have to find a way to access the video feed."

"Well I could ask the custodial staff," Bow said. "I talk to the janitors a lot."

"Onwards to the custodial office!" Scorpia declared. The three thanked Shauna for the advice as they went off towards the room where the janitors kept all their supplies.

"I'm coming too," Catra said. "You got me hooked now."

"Welcome to the team," Bow said with a grin.

They all passed by where Adora was sitting and Adora watched them walk by, shooting a questioning look at Catra.

"Long story," Catra said with a shrug as she walked past. "I'll tell you about it in weights! Have a good lunch! Miss you!"

Adora smiled and let them go, shaking her head and wondering what they could possibly be up to before she walked over and ate lunch with Glimmer.

Scorpia, Bow, and Catra made their way to the custodial office and Bow knocked on the door.

They waited a few moments before a woman opened the door and smiled as she recognized Bow.

"Hello, Bow," she said cheerily. "You don't have to knock, you know."

"Oh I was just being polite," Bow explained. "Kathy, we need to get our hands on some security footage from this morning to see if we can track down a stolen backpack. Can you help us?"

"Oh dear. Well I don't know if we're supposed to use the footage without an emergency but...I suppose if it's to find a missing bag we could try. Follow me." She opened the door wider and the three saw that the room was filled with supplies and stocked school items. A loud noise was coming from a whole host of pipes and machines along the walls. Kathy led them back through the room and down a hall, ushering them into a small office and flicking on the lights.

There were a few old monitors in the room, all turned off, and a thick layer of dust covered everything in the room.

"This is it," Kathy said. "I'm not sure I can help much though. I've never seen anybody even go in this room before."

Scorpia walked up and began poking at the apparatus that was laid out on the table and tried to turn on the monitors to no avail.

"Do you know how to turn it on?" Scorpia asked.

"I'm afraid not. I'm what they call technologically illiterate."

Catra perked up at this and it caught Bow's attention.

"What is it, Catra?"

"Well I think I might actually know probably the one person who is nerdy enough to get this working," Catra said slowly.


"Oh this is so cool!" Entrapta yelled as she entered the security office and saw the old equipment. "What a dated setup! You'd think they'd have upgraded!"

Catra sidled into the room behind Entrapta. "Well yeah if there was a big button labeled 'On' we could probably handle it, but we're kinda out of our league here."

"Well I'm glad you called me," Entrapta said excitedly. "I haven't gotten to work with a security system this old before." She looked over the various bits of hardware on the desk and the monitors mounted on the wall.

"What are friends for?" Catra asked with a smile. "Knock yourself out."

"Gladly," Entrapta said as she felt around the back of one of the bigger pieces that looked kind of like a computer. She knelt and rooted through a pile of assorted cords all tangled together before selecting a particular cord and plugging it into the piece before her. Then she plugged a few more cords into the monitors and pushed a few buttons and within moments the device on the table whirred to life and the monitors blinked on.

"Wow," Scorpia and Bow said in unison.

"Told ya," Catra said to them with a cheeky grin. "Now, Entrapta, if you can help us sort through the footage somehow."

"Alright," Entrapta said, connecting a keyboard to the device. "When and where do you wanna see?"

"This morning at the beginning of free period. And any footage that shows the bathrooms near the front of the school." Scorpia informed the girl.

Entrapta began to type a few things into the keyboards and hit a button on a remote and one of the monitors flicked over to a still image of a hallway. Entrapta clicked again and the image changed to a shot of the cafeteria, where students could be seen eating in very poor video quality.

"So cool…" Entrapta said quietly as she clicked a few more times.

"Right there!" Bow alerted her as a still popped up that displayed the bathrooms. It was at a weird angle, but it showed enough of the bathrooms that they would be able to see who had taken the bag.

"Alright. I'm gonna start half an hour early and we'll fast forward until we see Scorpia," Entrapta said as she typed a bit more. The feed showed an empty hall for a while and then, as Entrapta sped up the footage, they began to see a slow trickle of students arrive in the shot and zip around on the tape.

"This is probably the coolest thing I've ever done," Bow said, his voice quivering with excitement.

Scorpia held her fist to her mouth and shuffled from foot to foot. "This is a lot of suspense."

Even Catra was invested now, staring intently at the screen and biting at her lip.

When Scorpia appeared on screen, everybody instantly called for Entrapta to stop the fast forwarding and she immediately returned the playback to normal speed.

The four held their breath and watched in eager anticipation as Scorpia walked over to the bathrooms, her bag resting on her back.

"Oh man," Scorpia whispered. "My hair looks awful from this angle."

"Oh shut up, you have perfect hair," Catra whispered back.

A silence fell over the room once more as the Scorpia in the video placed her bag down against the wall outside the girl's bathroom and disappeared from view as she walked inside.

They watched as some events began to transpire as they expected. Shauna could barely be seen in the corner of the screen getting upset with another student. But all eyes were glued to the backpack as the seconds passed.

Hordak had just appeared on scene when a new figure walked up towards the girl's bathroom. They looked around for a second and then went into the girl's bathroom. Only a handful of seconds later the figure left the bathroom and picked up Scorpia's bag, walking away slowly.

Catra, Bow, and Scorpia all stared on in shock. They had instantly recognized the figure. Despite the grainy footage in the video, it was hard to mistake the telltale poof of bright pink hair on the person's head.


"So how'd your test go?" Adora asked Glimmer as they ate lunch together.

"Not too bad thanks to our last minute studying last night! I'm glad we're doing that again."

"Me too," Adora said sincerely.

"And you're actually sitting with me today so Catra must be doing something," Glimmer joked.

"Is that, like, an 'I'm upset but I'm hiding it' joke?" Adora asked, concerned.

"I'm not sure," Glimmer said honestly. "But really though, I'm glad you're sitting with Catra more. She, uh, she makes you...happier."

Adora smiled. "Yeah she does. But I want you to know that I really miss sitting with you too. And if you ever feel ready to sit all together I will do it in a heartbeat."

"Oh my god," Glimmer said distractedly.

"What? Was that too much?" Adora asked, feeling self conscious before realizing that Glimmer was looking over her shoulder.

Adora turned and saw Bow and Scorpia practically running towards their table, Catra speed-walking behind them to keep up.

Bow held up a finger and pointed at Glimmer as they charged up. "Thief!" He exclaimed.

"Case solved!" Scorpia declared, pointing at Glimmer as well.

Catra just stared on with an amused look as she sidled up to the table as well.

"What?" Glimmer asked, confused out of her mind.

"You were the last person we would have expected," Bow said proudly. "But we should have known."

Glimmer blinked a few times. "Uh."

"You kinda sorta stole my bag on accident I think," Scorpia explained.

"Stole? Stole!?" Glimmer clarified. "I put it in your locker for you."

There was a prolonged moment of silence that was eventually broken by Catra stifling her laughter.

"Wait...it's in my locker right now?" Scorpia asked.

"Uh, yeah," Glimmer said. "I looked in the bathroom and didn't see you so I figured you had left it. Cuz you forget that bag everywhere."

"I do," Scorpia said thoughtfully.

Bow looked to Scorpia. "You didn't check your locker?"

"How was I supposed to know it was there!?" Scorpia asked, raising her arms in defense.

"I texted you about it a few times," Glimmer answered.

Scorpia sucked air through her teeth slowly. "Ah. See...about that...my phone's been dead. I forgot to charge it last night…"

Bow facepalmed and Catra just laughed harder at the anticlimactic resolution to the case.

Scorpia frowned. "Well...that's...hmmm. I guess...case solved?"

Bow shook his head and smiled helplessly. He wrapped a lazy arm around Scorpia. "I was hoping it would end in a cool chase scene or something but this makes more sense I guess."

"Yeah I guess it does," Scorpia said. "I can't believe we tapped into the security cameras for this."

"Hold up, you what?" Adora asked.

"That's confidential information," Bow answered quickly.

Catra sighed and put a hand on Adora's shoulder. "Scorpia and I will fill you in during weights. It was one of the more entertaining things I've witnessed all day." She turned to Bow and Scorpia. "Can we go grab some actual food real quick?"

"I already ate so many muffins though," Bow said, patting his stomach.

"Yeah me too," Scorpia said. "Plus I wanna go to my locker and see this bag. For closure."

Catra shook her head. "You guys are crazy. I'm gonna go get some food. Glad I could help solve this one."

"Thanks, Catra!" Bow and Scorpia both shouted after her as she walked away towards the kitchen.

"I can't believe you guys were looking for that bag all morning," Glimmer said with a goofy smile. "I almost wish I had actually stolen it so I could hide it somewhere and see how far you guys would go."

"Well we dare you to try sometime," Bow challenged his friend.

"Well...maybe with Bow's backpack next time," Scorpia suggested.

"But we know who our first suspect will be now," Bow said suspiciously, staring at Glimmer. "Let's go see this bag we've been chasing."

Scorpia and Bow waved goodbye to Adora and Glimmer and went off towards Scorpia's locker.

They got there and Scorpia put in her combination, pausing before she opened it. Then she slowly pulled on the door and revealed a very familiar backpack hanging on a hook inside.

"Well shoot," Scorpia said simply.

The pair stared at the bag for a while and then Scorpia began to giggle. Her laughter was infectious and Bow began to laugh too. Soon they were both doubled over as the futility of their whole adventure washed over them.

Eventually they were able to stop laughing and Bow wheezed a few times.

"Oh man," Scorpia said, wiping a tear from her eye.

Bow sighed contentedly. "You know it may not have been the coolest case, but I think we did some great work, partner."

Bow held out a closed fist and Scorpia bumped it.

She smiled fondly. "You know it was really fun wasn't it? I liked being bad cop."

"Oh you were such a good bad cop," Bow congratulated her.

"Oh man but when we were interrogating that first guy? You really had him!"

"Well I'm an experienced spy," Bow said, doing a small bow.

Scorpia clapped and giggled joyfully.

"Hey," Bow said as Scorpia grabbed her backpack and closed her locker. "Are you going to the dance on Friday?"

Scorpia frowned. "Well, I don't know. I did want to originally…"

"Well why not anymore?" Bow asked.

"Well...er...it's a long story. But I asked someone and it didn't work out."

"Oh I'm sorry," Bow said considerately.

"Thanks. It kinda sucked. And then I thought I might ask Glimmer."

"Oh dang."

"Well I mean just as, like, friends or whatever," Scorpia clarified quickly, waving her hands in front of her defensively. "But now she's going with Mermista. And so I guess I probably just won't go."

"Well that's what I was gonna ask about. Cuz all my friends are going now but I don't wanna be the ultimate third wheel. So if you still wanna go we could totally go together!"

Scorpia looked at him and realized he was serious. "Yeah? That...sounds pretty fun actually! But are you sure? I mean, you could easily find a date if you wanted."

"Well thanks," Bow said sincerely. "But I'm not really interested in taking anybody as, like, a date."

"What about Dani?"

Bow blushed. "Well...I don't...he's probably not even into me."

"He seemed pretty into you from where I was standing," Scorpia said with a sly grin.

"Well I don't even know him," Bow said. "And then I'd be stressed all night when I just wanna have fun. Which is why we should go! If you want to, that is."

"Yeah that sounds really nice. Thanks, Bow."

"Don't thank me just yet!" Bow said. "I'm a terrible dancer and I am not afraid to embarrass you publicly."

Scorpia laughed loudly. "Oh boy. I'm just excited to go again! I love dances." She unzipped one of the compartments on her bag and looked inside.

"I like them too," Bow agreed. "Any chance to dress up and I'll be there!"

Scorpia checked another pouch and then another.

Bow spotted her looking confused. "What's wrong?"

"Well... it's just I could've sworn I had my trail mix packed in here. But...man it's been a crazy day. I must've imagined it."

"Huh. Must have," Bow agreed.

The pair then made plans for the dance.


Later that day, Glimmer went to her locker before her last class period and opened it. She scanned her surroundings.

And then, when she was sure that nobody was looking, Glimmer cackled to herself quietly as she moved a notebook aside and revealed a small bag of trail mix sitting in the back of her locker.

The End?

Man that chapter was so extremely fun. Spy buddies on the case. And they're both so sweet and caring and would definitely get along so well.

Also oh my god. That last season of She-Ra though. It made my heart so weak. I mean it was all so good. And that kiss though. What a great show and I am so extremely glad that I got to be there for it.

And now I can write this story as a way of coping with it being over :)

So I hope you all enjoy this chapter and thanks for reading and always saying such nice things! I hope you all are doing the best you possibly can. See you next time!
