"WHAT?!"

I screamed at the alarming news Mark just shared with me.

"SHHHH! Keep your voice down... But as I said, I think it's time to finally take you on a mission with us"

"Really~?!"

I whispered, as to not alert the others.

"Yeah, you might even awaken one of your powers while we're there"

"But this mission seems pretty dangerous. It says here that there's a monster on Earth that's causing havoc, and it only comes out at night! And besides, I'm defective. I don't have any powers and you know that..."

I shook, pointing nervously at my computer screen.

"We don't know that for sure, but either way, Jaemin's telescopic vision might help us find it. And if anything goes wrong, he can just teleport us all back here no problem. Then we'd be able to get it another time"

"Can't Jaemin see the future through his dreams? He could tell us what happens"

"I see your point. Let's go find him. Hopefully he's still sleeping"

I'll explain while we're looking for him.

We don't live on Earth, we'd just be considered outcasts there. We live on planet Ethora. You could say that it's somewhat similar to Earth, but Earth has changed.

There are still humans on Earth and they live their lives normally, but things have changed. Most of the animals have evolved into monsters and attack people at random. Some are more dangerous than others, giving a lot of people some pretty bad injuries sometimes.

It's our job to help those innocent people. We get paid a lot too. So much, that I don't know how their government is still stable with all the money they give away. I guess no one else is able to help them but us.

But thanks to our services, and the payments we receive, we manage to live in a huge mansion! And there's multiple floors to choose from:

•First Floor
•Kitchen
•Training Room
•Game Room
•Theater Room
•Washroom
•Tech Lab
•Supply Room
•Indoor Garden
•Indoor Pool
•Music/Dance Room
•Garage
•Infirmary
•Resting Floor 1
•Resting Floor 2
•Penthouse

That's a shit ton of floors, I know. But all of these floors have a purpose, I promise.

The first floor is just there to be the first floor, since nobody uses the entrance anyway. It's just there for show, even though no one will admit it.

The kitchen is obviously where we eat.

The training room has multiple settings based on our powers and fighting styles for training.

The game room and theater room are just for leisure and unwinding.

You can already guess what the washroom is for.

The tech lab is one of my personal spaces where I make my many gadgets and other kinds of tech.

The supply room has extra parts and things like health packs for when the others come back from their missions.

Some of us use the indoor garden and pool for a more constructive form of leisure, even though Jisung can get a little carried away at the pool, and by a little I mean almost flooding the entire mansion.

The dance room is mainly used by me, but sometimes we like to make music together.

The garage has all of our vehicles that I've created.

The infirmary has all of my healing gadgets I made to heal the others quicker when they come back from missions.

The resting quarters are separated on two floors since there's 8 of us. The 1st set being: Jisung, Chenle, Jaemin, and Donghyuck. And the 2nd set being: Jeno, Me, Mark, and our Caregiver.

And lastly, the penthouse is where we just hang out, mainly if we're upset or need someone to rant to.

Anyway, that's the tour of the place.

We made it to the elevator and pressed the button for Resting Floor 1.

The doors soon flew open as we made our way down the hall

The doors soon flew open as we made our way down the hall. We soon came up to a door, the name on it reading "Nana", the name under it reading "Cyclops".

Jaemin doesn't really like that nickname, but I think it suits him with his future sight. Anyway, figuring he was sleeping, I decided to use my lock picker to open his door.

"You're really sneaky huh? That could come in handy"

Mark chuckled, praising my skills.

"Thanks. I'd be happy to be of service"

I opened the door to see that I was right. He was still sleeping.

There's a reason we call him Cyclops. It's not often but most of the time when he sleeps, he has dreams of the future, or precognitive dreams. In these cases, like right now, a glowing third eye appears temporarily over his head, thus, we gave him the name, Cyclops.

3 Hours Later

-

"It's almost mission time in less than an hour..."

Mark sighed, starting to lose his patience.

"Maybe this was a bad ide-"

"NoOdLeS"

Jaemin suddenly shrieked, awakening from his slumber.

"Never mind. Nana, what did you see?"

"The monster was defeated"

"Don't we always defeat the monsters though?"

Mark cockily asked.

"Yes, but we didn't defeat it"

Jaemin shook his head. He raised his hand up, pointing to me, leaving me more nervous than I've ever been before.

"He did"
