Hunt for Teresa
Sophia first appears clearing out a Yoma hive with Noel. They both have an arguement about who killed most Yoma, Sophia saying she killed seven while Noel killed six. They were about to fight each other when Irene appeared and told them they were to hunt down Teresa with the latest Number 2, Priscilla. When Sophia saw the Yoma Priscilla has slain, she was astonished and frightened.

She was given the job of attacking from beneath, forcing her sword through the floor below Teresa. She missed, however, and watched Teresa battle Priscilla from the door.
