ok

Sofia: (cheerfully setting out a pack of eggogs) Breakfast time! Who's ready for some gourmet camping cuisine?

Luke: (looking skeptical) Gourmet? You mean "grocery store clearance"?

Elyria: (wrinkling her nose) I still can't believe you dragged us out here to eat… whatever that is.

Jake: (fidgeting) Can we just stick to normal food? I packed granola bars for a reason.

Sofia: (grinning) Come on, live a little! (takes a puff from a joint, the smoke wafting around) This is nature!

Luke: (eyeing the smoke) Maybe not that much. Can we just focus on eating?

Elyria: (awkwardly shifting) So… uh, who brought the actual food?

Jake: (pointing to the eggogs) I'm pretty sure those are the main course.

Sofia: (snickering) They're like, the most important part! Perfect for a forest brunch!

Luke: (sighing) I can't believe I agreed to this.

Elyria: (breaking the tension) At least it's peaceful here. Just… us and the weird food.

Jake: (mumbling) Yeah, and the smoke.

Sofia: (playfully) You guys are such downers! It's just a little fun.

Luke: (trying to lighten the mood) Fun? This feels like a bad camping sitcom.

Elyria: (laughs nervously) I can see it now: "Four Friends and a Pack of Eggogs."

Jake: (chuckling) And one of them can't stop smoking!

Sofia: (grinning) Guilty as charged! (takes another puff, looking pleased)

Luke: (trying to be diplomatic) How about we compromise? We try one bite of eggogs, and then granola bars for the rest of breakfast?

Elyria: (smirking) I'm in. Let's see if Sofia's culinary choice lives up to the hype.

Sofia: (mocking seriousness) I'm telling you, this will be the breakfast of champions!

(They all hesitantly grab a piece of the eggogs, exchanging uncertain glances before taking a bite together.)

Jake: (chewing slowly) This… actually isn't terrible.

Elyria: (surprised) Yeah, it's surprisingly okay!

Sofia: (giggling) See? I told you!

Luke: (relieved) Well, maybe this camping trip won't be a total disaster after all.

Elyria: (teasing) Just wait till we break out the leftovers from last night!

Jake: (groaning) No way.

Jake: (leaning back against a tree, arms crossed) Alright, team. We need to focus on saving our food for later. No more snacking until we can show some actual progress.

Sofia: (grinning, still munching) But I just found out that Garfield hates Mondays! Important stuff!

Elyria: (trying to concentrate) Can you not? I'm trying to shapeshift here. (shifts her focus, attempting to turn her hand into a claw)

Luke: (picking up a stick) Right, let's do this. I'm going to throw this stick at that tree and make it hit dead center!

Jake: (rolling his eyes) You missed the tree last time. Let's see if you can actually hit it this time.

Luke: (determined) I've been practicing!

(He throws the stick, and it lands a bit to the left of the tree.)

Jake: (snickering) Better than last time, but still not great.

Elyria: (trying to focus) Just let me get this right… (she concentrates hard, her hand morphing into a half-claw, half-human mess)

Sofia: (randomly) Did you know Garfield once won an award for being the laziest cat?

Elyria: (distracted) That's nice, Sofia, but I'm trying to concentrate here!

Jake: (mock serious) Maybe if you concentrated harder, your shapeshifting wouldn't look like a melted candle.

Sofia: (laughing) Burn!

Luke: (grabbing another stick) Watch this! (throws another stick, and it lands closer, but still off)

Jake: (sarcastically) Wow, you've improved by, like, two inches.

Luke: (grinning) Progress, right?

Elyria: (trying again) Okay, let me focus... (she shifts, this time attempting to turn into a fox)

Jake: (watching her struggle) You're still more like a weird dog than a fox.

Elyria: (frustrated, coughing) Ugh, I can't get it right!

Sofia: (interrupting) Speaking of cats, Garfield once ate an entire pizza by himself!

Jake: (holding his ears) Stop! My ears are bleeding from the randomness!

Luke: (laughing) It's a lot of pressure, you know.

Elyria: (trying to catch her breath) I can't shape-shift and listen to fun facts at the same time!

Jake: (grinning) Then focus on doing better instead of your trivia club!

Sofia: (leaning back, satisfied) Hey, I'm just here for the fun facts.

Luke: (throwing yet another stick) Here goes! (this one flies and hits the tree—barely)

Jake: (sarcastically) Whoa! That's an A for effort and a D for execution.

Elyria: (rolling her eyes) Can we just take a break from the "grading" and actually practice?

Sofia: (laughing) I'm just here for the snacks and the facts, you know!

Jake: (smirking) Well, at least you're consistent.

(They all take a moment to regroup, each of them taking a deep breath. Jake finally shakes his head, realizing he's the only one taking this seriously.)

Jake: Alright, let's try this again. Luke, aim for the tree. Elyria, keep working on that transformation. And Sofia, just… be quiet for five minutes.

Sofia: (feigning shock) You wound me! But fine.

(They each get back to their practices, the atmosphere slowly lightening as they attempt to support one another, with Jake watching, secretly hoping they'll finally improve.)

Jake: (watching Luke) Seriously, just aim for the tree, okay? It's not that hard!

Luke: (muttering) Easy for you to say, Mr. Perfect.

Elyria: (concentrating) I swear, if I don't get this transformation right, I'm going to… (trails off, frustrated)

Sofia: (cheerfully) Did you know SpongeBob was originally going to be a different character named "Bob the Sponge"?

Luke: (rolling his eyes) Great, just what I needed. More useless trivia.

Jake: (sighing) Can we focus, people? This is supposed to be training, not a cartoon marathon!

Elyria: (gritting her teeth) I'm trying to focus on being a fox here, but it's hard when I'm hearing about sponges.

Sofia: (unfazed) SpongeBob's house is a pineapple under the sea! How cool is that?

Jake: (muttering) Not cool when we're supposed to be training, Sofia.

Luke: (snapping) Yeah, like we're going to take tips from a cartoon.

Sofia: (cheerfully) But SpongeBob always believes in his friends!

Elyria: (frustrated) Great, I need to believe in myself, not in a sponge!

Jake: (trying to be serious) We're trying to improve here, not talk about cartoon characters!

Sofia: (grinning) And did you know SpongeBob's favorite food is Krabby Patties? I mean, who doesn't love a good burger?

Luke: (sarcastically) Oh sure, let's add "SpongeBob Enthusiast" to our training list.

Elyria: (facepalming) I'm going to turn into a pizza if this keeps up.

Jake: (shaking his head) Focus, everyone! We need to be better than this.

Sofia: (still oblivious) And SpongeBob has a pet snail named Gary! He meows!

Luke: (snapping) Can we not? I'd rather hit the tree than listen to you!

Elyria: (groaning) Yeah, I can't shape-shift when my brain is full of sea sponge facts.

Jake: (grinning despite himself) But hey, at least it's entertaining. Just... try to keep it down, okay?

Sofia: (laughing) Fine! But did you know SpongeBob was inspired by a marine biology teacher?

Luke: (throwing his stick in frustration) I can't take this anymore!

Elyria: (finally managing to transform her hand into a more fox-like shape) There! See? Now I can be a "fox" instead of just a… (gestures to her odd form) whatever this is!

Jake Well, at least someone is making progress.

Jake: (raising his voice) Sofia, you need to think more! This isn't a joke. We're trying to train here, not listen to your random facts!

Sofia: (defensive) I'm just trying to lighten the mood! What's the problem with that?

Jake: (growing more frustrated) The problem is that you're not taking this seriously! We need to focus!

Elyria: (trying to mediate) Guys, let's just—

Luke: (interrupting) Yeah, Sofia, we're all trying to improve here. Can you dial it back a bit?

Sofia: (glaring) I can't help it if you're all so uptight!

Jake: (exasperated) This isn't about being uptight! It's about being responsible!

Sofia: (voice rising) Maybe if you weren't so controlling, we could actually enjoy this!

(The tension thickens, and Sofia's expression shifts from anger to anxiety as she feels the weight of their frustration.)

Sofia: (looking overwhelmed) I… I just thought—

Jake: (not backing down) You need to think better!

Sofia: (muttering to herself) Great, just great…

(Feeling anxious, she suddenly spots something on the ground—a white powdery substance.)

Sofia: (sniffing it) Maybe this will help me think better…

Luke: (eyes widening) Wait, what are you doing?!

Elyria: (concerned) Sofia, don't!

(Sofia inhales the substance, and her expression shifts dramatically. Her eyes turn jet black, and she starts walking around aimlessly, her movements almost trance-like.)

Jake: (panicking) What did you do?!

Elyria: (trying to snap her out of it) Sofia! Come back!

(Sofia wanders deeper into the woods, her gaze fixated on a strange symbol appearing in her mind—a glowing sigil that seems to pulse with energy.)

Sofia: (in a dazed tone) I can see it… the symbol… it's… it's calling me…

Luke: (worried) This isn't good. We need to get her back!

Jake: (frustrated) Sofia! You need to snap out of it!

Elyria: (running after her) Sofia, please! We're worried about you!

(Sofia continues walking, her mind consumed by the vision of the symbol, oblivious to the chaos around her.)

Jake: (trying to think quickly) We need to bring her back before she gets too far!

Luke: (nervously) But how? She's not even aware of us!

Elyria: (calling out) Sofia! Focus on our voices!

Sofia: (whispering to herself) The symbol… it's everything…
