Five/Fenrir
The crafting process has been going on for days now, Milo and Marie have been working hard day and night with not much time to rest. They're nothing but determined that's for sure, Eve has a concert but she told me she'd rather have me waiting here alongside Milo and Marie just in case something needs extinguishing or if they need a drink or something. Baron Grealish stops by once in a while to, "See a miracle take place", and normally just sits inside the work area looking at Milo and Marie toil away at the crafting process, various calculations are written on a white board and various designs of sorts adorn the chalkboard courtesy of Grealish. The crafting machine bustles a let's out low hum, "Is there anything I can help?".
Marie wipes the sweat of her forehead, "No. In fact...I think we're almost done?"
Milo peeks out from behind the crafting machine and gives us a thumbs up, "Yeah I saw the cookies are about to be fresh out of the oven".
"That's quite the comparison between the two. So should I let the others know?"
Milo walks out and nods, "Sure why not? We'll prepare everything medical wise just in case".
Marie grabs a water and opens it, "We're sitting at about 30% failure rate. These are a bit riskier than Abraham's".
"Why's that?"
Grealish walks up and stares at the chalkboard, "Because Abraham had the will to accept the power given to him. Magic apart from being connected directly to bodily functions, is also a measure of the soul. Most magic finds its strength in the will of the user, so if one desires destruction well, one will find that in the magic they use". Grealish walks over to the medical area to look at each of the inactive team members, "It's up to them whether or not they want to tread upon the path opened for them".
I never thought of it that way, maybe that's one of the reasons for which I survived the experimentation process. Fenrir always said that it's because I was destined to wield his power just like others had before me. There's not much for me to do here anymore so I turn and begin to message each of member that the project is almost finished, each of them respond with an OK. A couple of hours pass by and each of them begin to arrive, Eve of course is still dressed in her concert attire which mesmerizes me, Carter walks in with his duffel bag after what I presume was his part time job at the Market, and the last to arrive is Abraham who seems tired from dealing with customers.
Eve runs up towards me, "So how was your day?"
"Pretty uneventful. Nothing much to do but watch television or watch as Milo and Marie work on the little project of theirs. How did the concert go?"
Seems she was waiting for me to ask that question, "Barcelona is such a nice place. The atmosphere was so electric and the audience loved me. It would've been nice if you would've went, I'm sure you would enjoyed seeing the city".
"Maybe next time".

"So are we ready to proceed?", Abraham looks at the crests sitting on the table, each with a different design, "Is there a reason they're designed this way?"
Milo shrugs, "Grealish says he feels that each of the design best reflects who it's going to". This amazes Abraham as he looks at each one in awe, of course I stop him before he gets to close and somehow creates an explosion causing everyone in the room to die.
"So should we all move to the medical area then?"
Everyone nods as Milo and I push two carts. One containing gauzes, pain medication, sewing needles for stitches, surgical pliers, and adhesive bandages. The other cart has the crests all in the same glass container and each glows brightly as the energy flows through each of the curves from each design, it's quite mesmerizing to see such a spectacular miniature light show these crests give. Each of the team members lay on each of the cots, all of them sedated and kept under thanks to Grealish's maneuvering. Grealish and Carter stay inside to help us place a crest near each our teammates deltoids, each of the crests begins to react as we get to the last of our unconscious friends. There is that same glow that Milo saw whenever he did this with Abraham, the silence doesn't last long as groans are heard from them turning into restrained screams of pain which causes Eve to turn away. Abraham stares on in silence with no visible bother on his face yet, he tightens his fist and it seems as if he's mouthing the phrase, "Come on".
