Their faces said it all—total shock. That’s her version of messing around!‘

Across campus, Imani was glued to her phone, grinning at the tidal wave of shade hitting Briar online.

She could already picture Briar geiting dragged by the whole school. It felt like winning the jackpot.

Then–bam. The forum refreshed, and the post was gone. Her screen taunted her with one smug line: Post not found or deleted.]

“No way! Imani’s stomach dropped. She jabbed refresh like it was her job, but nothing. The post was history

“Imani, yo, the post’s gone! Her dormmate yelped, jumping off her bed and shoving her phone under Imani’s nose. “Look! It’s just poof. Gotta be an admin, right“”

Imani’s face darkened, but she flashed a fake–sweet smile. “Yeah, probably. Whatever, let’s move on.”

Her friend wasn’t buying it, practically steaming. “Imani, how are you this chill! You keep letting her slide, and she’s gonna keep coming for you! She’s just mad you’re the Shepherd family’s star. She wants You down!”

Imani looked away, voice soft. “She’s kinda sad, you know! No parents, didn’t show up at our place ‘til she was fourteen. God knows what she went through. No wonder she’s got an attitude. It’s fine

She dabbed her eyes, milking the victim vibe like a pro. The sadder she played it, the madder her friend got

“Imani, you’re too nice! I’m done. I’m hitting up the forum’s senior mod. Someone messed up and deleted it. 111 make sure everyone knows Briar’s real deal!TM

Imani’s eyes were misty, her voice shaky. Thanks. I’m just so lost. I’m lucky you’re here”

“Relax. Imani. I’m on it

“Briar, you’re a freakin‘ legend The jungle queen, right here Mac squealed, nearly bouncing our of her chair. “Fifteen wins in a roir? You’re gonna curse your luck, girl!”

In their cluttered dorm, Briar was carrying her three roommates through a wild four–stack gaming session, the monitor’s glow lighting up their faces.

Mar gaped at the victory streak flashing on–screen, grinning like she’d hit the jackpot. I’ve never ranked this high. Is this what being a big shot feels

be?

Briar laughed, kicking back. “Big shot! This is just the start. Stick with me, and I haul you to the top.

“For real?” Mac’s eyes sparkled, but she hesitated, biting her lip. “We’re not, like, dragging you down, are we?”

Briar solo? A total beast. With the three of them! It was like herding kittens.

“Dragging me down? Nah, boosting my girls is the whole deal, Briar said, flashing a sly grin.

Mae’s jaw dropped, her eyes all starry. “You’re my freakin‘ hero!”

Rhea, quiet till now, spoke up, her voice cool. “Briar, you’re good enough to go pro

Their rank wasn’t crazy high, but Briar carrying three newbies to consistent dubs? Straight–up unreal.

Brúar shrugged, feet propped on the desk. “Pro Esports is fine without me. It’s come a long way

Briar was in deep, and people always pick sides.

Rhea didn’t know Imani, but Briar was her roommate. After half a day, she was

Briar had her reasons for whatever went down.

Briar didn’t care. She smirked, eyebrow raised. “Can’t fix it? Then I handle the one causing it

Rhea, Mac, and Jolene just gaped at her.

“Hold up, Briar said, already at the door. “I’m about to find Imani and serve her some justice”

She was already halfway to the door

Whoa, slow down!” Mae yelped, jumping up with Jolene to block her. “We’re at school, Briar!”

Briar smirked. “Chill, I don’t do stupid”

Everything she did that mattered was calculated, alright. But Iman Total waste of space.
