Capítulo 56: 56 When the Beat Drops
Zoe's fingers tightened around her staff as her double stepped forward, that sharp, predatory grin making her stomach twist.
It was like looking in a mirror, but this reflection didn't feel like hers.
Not really.
Her double's movements were smooth, confident—eerily so—and that grin, that smug tilt of its head, made Zoe's jaw clench.
It didn't just look like her—it moved like her. Every shift of weight, every tick of a finger. It was her without hesitation, without doubt
"Round two," the clone said, her voice a perfect echo of Zoe's, but twisted, just enough to make it sound like a challenge.
'Alright, Shonce, don't overthink it,' Zoe told herself, forcing her breath to even out.
She darted forward, her staff spinning in her hands.
The familiar weight grounded her, but each clash with her clone only tightened the coil in her chest.

Zanden Hey readers!
This chapter, "When The Beat Drops," was an absolute blast to write. At first, this chapter was all about Zoe and Gavin—because how can you not love a tickle takedown and an MJ moment? But as I worked through it, the rest of the team kept calling out for their chance to shine. So, I finally relented, threw word count worries out the window, and said, “Let’s kick this up to 12/10!” And honestly? I couldn’t be happier with the results.
- Zoe’s Ticklish Triumph: A tickle attack that doubles as self-acceptance? Classic Zoe.
- Gavin’s MJ Moment: His dance wasn’t just iconic—it set the tone for the entire team to let loose and get creative. And here’s the best part: you’ll find out why he’s so good at it in the next chapter!
-The Rest of the Team: Serria, Roderick, Quinn, Snacks, and Crest all took the spotlight in ways that surprised even me. From Serria’s fake-out to Snacks and Crest’s psychic coordination, each moment added a spark to the chapter.
-That Ending: The Tyrant Core isn’t letting them off easy, and the next challenge is going to push everyone even further.
Now, I want to hear from you—what was your favorite moment? Who surprised you the most? Wasn’t it a joy to read? Drop your thoughts below, because I love hearing how these moments resonate with you.
Let’s keep weaving this story together!
