In Luz's room, Luz was doing the knife game. Each time she was going faster and putting more force until she slammed it on the table in front of her. She stood up and just sat on her bed. She had calm down much since Lilith and Camila left an hour again, but she was still feeling heavy of mind. The benefits of being on a team came to her mind but they all shattered against the biggest downside, someone dying because of Luz.

'Still…. maybe it's time I try again?' Luz thought with doubts before her phone, her real phone, went off

Grabbing it from the nightstand, Luz saw that it was a group text invite from Skara. Luz hesitated a little but figured it would be fine since it was Skara. Luz accepted the invite and saw the group chat was with Skara, Amity, Boscha, Willow, and Gus. The first message was from Skara saying,

-It's alright. We all know about Amity and Boscha being you know who.-

'They do? Does that mean she told them about me too?' Luz thought.

She got an encrypted message from Skara.

'They didn't reveal your secret, I sent my drone out and saw the whole thing. I also caught the sniper heading out.'

-Luz we need to talk privately in order to catch you up with this whole thing- Boscha

Luz knew what this message was. Boscha wanted it to look like they need to talk about Luz learning about their identities, but in reality, they wanted to talk about what they all learned.

-It's nice that there's no more secrets in this group- Gus

'Oh Gus, you couldn't be more wrong.'

This made Luz feel a BIT better, this would help her trust her new friends more before she revealed her secret to them by her choice when she felt the time was right.

-So, what, do you want me to meet you at the Café tomorrow- Luz

Luz figured that would seem like a good response, wouldn't seem that suspicious.

-Sounds like a plan- Boscha

-There's a seclude corner where we can all meet- Willow

-How does 8:30am sound for everyone?- Gus

-Ok- Luz

-Fine with me. Breakfast is on Boscha and I- Amity

-This time. We do have a business to run- Boscha

-Yeah, yeah. Like Skara and I don't have six figure allowances- Luz

-Excuse me but I work for my money. Computers don't fix themselves- Skara

-Don't they have anti-virus software that do that?- Gus

-Do not start with me again, Gus- Skara

Luz chuckled at this, finding the banter pretty funny considering Skara was a world class hacker. Second only to Luz herself of course.

-Yeah, Gus, you remember last time you annoyed her?-Willow.

-Yeah, she hacked into my computer and signed me up for a porno magazine subscription- Gus.

-My best prank- Skara.

Luz burst out laughing at this before she sent her reply.

-Is it really a prank if he enjoyed it?- Luz.

-I DID NOT ENJOY IT!- Gus.

-Sure you didn't. - Luz.

-I don't like you all of a sudden- Gus

With that, Gus left.

-He'll be fine- Amity

-Especially if he kept that subscription- Boscha

With that, Luz had another laugh before bidding them all good night. Early to bed and early to rise as they say but Luz rises early either way.
