On the island of Infinite Haven, Infinite Haven is what the name suggests. It was a haven for the people who lived there. People lived peacefully and richly. Even though the king's tax is not detrimental to them, they still don't like the king. Infinite Haven had shops, and restaurants on every corner. People knew each other. Gossip spread throughout the town like wildfire. Especially with the two most prominent shop owners. The Mino siblings. The Mino siblings are a brother-and-sister duo who own a joint bakery and clothing shop. Everyone goes to their shop every day. Nathan Mino was well-known and well-respected. Nori Mino was also well-known and well-respected. The brother and sister had each other's backs no matter what.

Business was booming during the day. Nathan was selling clothes and Nori was selling baked goods. The door opened and a presence like no other was felt. The Siblings glared at the woman who came in. The customers began to gossip. Nathan stopped what he was doing and walked over to his sister. The woman smirked and walked over to them. Her heels clicked and the jewels around her waist clanked against her exposed leg.

"Why are you here Corin?" Nathan asked in a husky tone

Corin chuckled.

"Always protecting your sister, I see," Corin replied

"Why are you here?" Nori asked with an attitude

"I can't buy new clothes or food?"

Both Nathan and Nori rolled their eyes. They know when she says that it's important.

"Everyone please leave we will be open in thirty minutes," Nathan said politely

All the customers groaned as they left the shop. After all the customers left, Nathan covered all the windows and locked the door. Nori grabbed some chairs for them. Corin pulled out a cigarette.

"You still smoke those?" Nori asked

"You know it fuels my power hun."

"It's just a metal one, relax Nori."

Nori rolled her eyes.

"If you want me to help with this plan, I have to keep my power at hundred percent."

"Do you have any information?" Nathan crossed his arms as they sat down.

Taking a puff of her special cigarette she felt her power surge through her.

"I do."

"What is it?"

Corin smiled. "The King has put out an order to find his youngest son who escaped from the dungeon. The King also hired a shapeshifting assassin to find this missing son."

"What are you implying here?"

Corin looked at Nori.

"We find this missing son; he can join us are our cause."

The brother and sister looked at each other.

"It's a stretch, but there's no way we can find him."

"I'm already on it. I hired my own assassin to capture him."

There was a knock on the door. Nathan got up cautiously and walked to the door. Slowly opening it, a man wearing a gold and blue semi-crop top with blue and gold pants, and gold arm plates. His hair was short was flowing.

"I'm here to speak with Corin."

"Let him in... he's, my assassin, Princeton."

He walked in and stood next to Corin. Nori glared at him.

"So, this is your new fling?"

"Don't be so brazen Nori."

"What?"
