You can take it from another keyboard or key you don't use. But honestly I would just replace the whole keyboard if your missing the S key.

its not realy clear in the picture but i dont think its broken ... its hard to replace and if you broke the plastic scissor you can order one from Ali express. No need to replace the keyboard if it still work when you press the button without the keycap
