"What. Was. That."
Just a few moments ago we heard a loud BOOM that echoed across town.

2 siblings find out that their life isn't what it seemed to be, and they had a more important purpose.
Will they be able to prevent the Sword from falli...
"It's been a long time since the other ranks took us seriously" Damian said "That's why we need to win this capture the flag game!" "Uh huh, and how do we do that?" I crossed my arms. "Brayden and Kayden are really good with most weapons, but! They're horrible with daggers! It'll be easy for us to defeat them because I know all their weak spots!" He boasted. "Stalker," Nicole said "I say we wing it" "No, no, no, no, NO!" He yelled "We need a proper plan to show them that we are prepared!" "Who are Brayden and Kayden anyway?" I asked. Astrid read the profile document she was holding "Brayden & Kayden Coldain, Twins, 16 years old, Parents: Deceased, Symbol: Fire, Rank: Diamond, Status: Alive, Leaders of Diamond level clan: Ember"
"This place definitely has something with twins" I said. "I change their status to drinking dirty sock water or something, if you want." Nicole offered "It's way easier than listening to Damian go on, and on, and on, about each and everyone of our enemies weak spots" Damian scoffed indicating he was offended. "Well, sorry that I'm taking this seriously, I just really want to go on the quest!" "Wait, wait, wait, what quest??" I asked "You never said there was a quest!" "When we get a new prophecy, they hold a capture the flag game for the teams so they can compete for a quest. Most of the time, the contest is between the teams with silver level rank or higher, if the teams with ranks lower than silver are able to build their rank they can start competing for a medium level quest" Astrid explained "There are team ranks and individual ranks, the individual ranks are.." She held up a chart on her clipboard;

"How many infinities are there?" Nicole asked. "None, well, except for you I guess.." Astrid said "The highest rank is really Diamond, I just added infinity because it's basically a mix of all powers " "Really?? Cool!" Nicole exclaimed. "But it's most likely that you'll have to learn to master the powers, life isn't always a piece of cake" Astrid said.
"SHShshshShsh!" Damian yelled "LISTEN TO MEEE!" "Gee! Okay!" I covered my ears. "First, we have to learn the map" He tapped something on his watch revealing a blurry holograph of the riverside probably somewhere near here. "There, this is where we're gonna win that quest!" "I still think we should just wing it" Nicole muttered. "I agree" Axel said "or at least make the plan easy cuz I have calculus homework and it's like 5% of my grade." "We both know that you don't care about school, you failed 5 of your subjects last term and still chose to go bear hunting with Damian." Astrid said. I wouldn't mind if someone else made a shorter plan, I have a life too you know!
Pfft, you wish
You are so mean, you know that? But since I'm a really good person, I'll let it go, just this once.
Damian faced away from us with a "hmph", of course 7 seconds of silence later he turned back to face us. "Fine, let's make it short" He zoomed in on a little campsite with a wood shed labeled do not enter! (or die) "See the wooden shed over there?" He synced the hologram on his watch to the tv in the front of the room. "The one that says do not enter! (or die)? Yeah, it's pretty noticeable" Nicole said. "We go in" Damian told us. "That's it?" Axel asked. "What? I thought you wanted a short plan?" Damian said, a bit too loudly.
