Rough drafts

Draft #1 starring the unnamed twins apparently

Have a minimum effort random chapter for some OC stuff:

Flora's footsteps are almost silent; she's trying not to make too much noise, as though something or someone is sleeping. Her hand is still locked as though I'm in weapon form, even though she can see me stood next to her - Flora's in some kind of trance of concentration. Part of me wants to take her and drag her out of this nonsense, but she's using her magic form, big black arms which reach down to the floor, and she's summoned another pair from her back to carry to wherever we're going. She only does that when we're going on a long journey towards a battle and wants to save her strength.

Time to stop staring at her though; I should check my surroundings while I can.

It's mysterious enough when you're lead to a non-particular destination, with a non-particular motive, armed with nothing but yourself, your girlfriend a lantern-spell, but what was happening was truly strange. Thin white and pale strings of glow were
"strung" all across the walls and ceilings, and blue beams of light travelled across them continuously, giving off a weird white-teal glow. It seemed to lead all around, signposts directing our path, so Flora and I had decided to follow them until we reached our non-particular destination.

As we travelled through the dark, red-pink corridors, the only light being the glow and my lantern, I stare at Flora moving effortlessly on "her" arms. How is she so calm and collected? There's usually a sweet grin on her face, the light gleaming in her eyes, but not now. Her pupils are small, lifeless and emotionless, her expression grim and focused. The best thing to do right now is find out what's going on.

"So-"my voice came out more sarcastic than I'd intended, but it turns her head towards me. "Are we trying to retrieve something? You're pulling the same face you have when you're trying to find your other sock." She giggled a little bit, but then looks like she did something wrong and goes back to her sincere stare.

We turn a sharp corner where she comes to a halt. A long corridor greets us, and all I can make out is a dark rectangle in the distance, which I presume is a door.

"You're a big kid, so you must read a lot of fairy-tales?"
"..please don't tell me we're hunting down a wicked stepmother."
Flora giggles again, but doesn't go back to her stare. The arms spin her round so she's facing me, so I can see her sitting there, cross-legged and smirking.

"No Ali, I don't have any princesses on my agenda. In fact we have some orphans to take care of, Jack and Ace. Apparently they had they had the strongest physic abilities for weapons their age, and their bond was so unbreakable they could even use a 'hive mind' ability."

"They 'had'?"

Flora sighs as though she's disappointed. She gestures for the hands to start carrying her through the corridor, and I follow.

"Seeing as they were siblings, there would be some complications with their relationship. They would bicker constantly over the most stupid things, and compete to see who the 'alpha twin' was, even though it didn't affect their battle strength, they were incredibly stupid for some of their acts. At one point they started arguing about who could sleep the longest... They've been in cryosleep for the past 100 years."

"Wait what?!"

"You saw those glowing wire things running everywhere? That's what's been keeping their bodies alive and stable; in fact the magic is so strong their bodies and minds haven't aged a bit. Not that they were mature in the first place. At some point though nap-time has to end, and that's why I brought us here,"

We reach the end of the corridor and Flora makes the arms disappear, so she drops to her feet. She opens the door:
"I present, Jack and Ace, 114 year old twin weapons, whom unfortunately have the minds of toddlers."
