AU where before Ichiro went after the White Stone he kidnapped Melissa and trained her for several years to become the next leader of the Spero

Also RANDOM THEORY: anyone ever notice that Jax's eyes are almost the same color as Melissa's hair and powers and stuff? Is it possible they share the same Cipher mother and that's how they were introduced to each other, that their mother is friends with Mel's adoptive mom? This is a totally absurd theory feel free to debunk me lol

Everston. She gazed up at the tall front entrance. It's been a long time.

"Harmony, you copy?" A voice said into her ear. Melissa shoved her hand into her pocket as the blue aura appeared around it.

"I do, Duality. How's everyone else doing?" Melissa said quietly. Everyone on the team had a small device in their ear that vibrated specifically at one of Melissa's unique frequencies, allowing for her to be a sort of receptor and pass communication between everyone during their mission.

"We're good. Fever, Lord, and I are waiting for our cue."

"It might be a little bit, but be prepared for my signal," Melissa ordered before cutting the signal and turning to her partner. "You think this will work?"

The aqua-eyed boy grinned. "Totally. There's been so much planning in this, there's no way it can't work!"

Jax joined the Spero a few weeks after Mel arrived there. He first joined because he was angry that his best friend had ditched him for Magiclica friends, but was very surprised to find her training her powers in his first training session with him. They had since rekindled their friendship and were an inseparable duo.

Melissa glanced at the hustle and bustle of the crowd around them. "I wouldn't be so sure... There's a lot we couldn't prepare for. Remember, if something goes wrong and we can't fulfill the mission, forget it and get out of here ASAP." Jax's good mood dimmed as he nodded.

They wandered in silence for a while, looking like fairly ordinary Everston students. Technically, they were a year older than what they needed to be to go to school here, but they had still donned their old uniforms and pretended to be registered students at the prestigious school once more. They also had identification for their allies: Melissa wore a large black hat with a stripe that was white and the color of her powers that she had tucked her giveaway hair into. Jax had two thick, black wristbands with the same style of white stripe but instead of a sky blue, there was a bright rainbow.

Melissa spotted someone. "I'll be right back," she said quietly and slithered her way to the tanned boy that was glancing every which way and looked very uncomfortable. She tapped his shoulder, making the boy with the bandana around his neck with four colors- red, yellow, blue, and green- with white borders in a black fabric, jump up of his skin.

"H-Harmony! I-I didn't see you!" Kai stuttered.  His stumbles statement jogged something in the back of Melissa's mind, although she couldn't place what exactly.

"Are you looking for your boyfriend?" She questioned with a rather serious tone. Kai tensed.

"No! I-I don't have a..." he caught Melissa's dubious stare. "Alright maybe... I'm not trying to mess up the mission, I... I promise." About six months after Melissa joined the Spero, Kai had come down with a mysterious condition that left him with migraines and periods of severe weakness, along with the inability to use his aura without extreme pain. He very occasionally came on safer missions as an emergency support, but even Ichiro agreed that Kai should not use his power if possible.

Melissa rolled her eyes, a quick smile playing across her lips before returning to her serious face. "Go find Quinston. But don't tip him off," she pointed a finger accusingly at him. Kai jumped and nodded.
