Both woke up at the sound of the alarm. It was already 8 in the morning and both were hungry.
"Would you think your dad also left some food?", Edmond asked Claide.
"Hopefully, we need to search if there are supplies in here.", Claide replied.
The two wandered in the whole bunker and they found a room labeled with supplies. Inside was canned foods, some first aid and communicators.
"Well that answered our question.", Edmond stated.
The two took out one communucator each and two cans of some sort. There were no labels except "meat". They opened the cans and it was as what is in the label. Sliced meat with some sauce.
"This is edible right?", Edmond asked with a hint of disgust while looking at the can.
"Well it's the only thing we have. We can't really complain now can we? We can't go out in daylight.", Claide replied.
"Woo..yeah you're right. Welp here we go.", Edmond answered.
The two ate from the can straight. It was not as bad as they thought. After their meal the two further discussed on what they should do.
"The computer is currently encrypted luckily we have an amazing hacker. Emilia can help us. We just have to make her come here at night where we won't attract any attention.", Edmond explained.
"Yeah come on we should check this place further.", Claide replied.
Claide went straight to the library about RCHM while Edmond went straight to the supply room to find more things that may help them.
As Claide was strolling along the library he saw a book particularly about the classifications of mages and recored magic. It reads: Mages were once humans that evolved due to a great exposure of n unknown material located at an unknown location. This so called material allowed these specific humans to develop genes that allows them to use different supernatural capabilities. Mages are classified into three types: Elemental, which the user can manipulate and create specific elements. Solidifier, which the user can make inanimate objects appear that can be utilized by the user or it can also make different beasts and animals. The last one is Specialist, which the user has the ability to use the two types or either with the addition of other unclassified and unique magical abilities.
"Huh...interesting an unknow material caused all this.",  Claide commented.
While in the supply room Edmond had found something interesting as well.
"Woahh...a stash of one man teleporters and a mage ability analyzer.", Edmond commented.
After some searching the two met up at the big computer.
"I found some one man teleporters and look at this ability analyzers.", Edmond said.
"I found this interesting book about mages. Some information here are not taught to us at school.", Claide replied.
"Well it's already dark out I think we should call her now. We need to knoe what's in this computer here.", Edmond said.
Edmond started calling Emilia through his phone.
Edmond: Hey Emilia
Emilia: Heyaa
Edmond: We are in a bit of a sticky situation here..
Emilia: I figured that what do you need?
Edmond: Well we need you to come here at point peak hill..we have something for you to decrypt.
Emilia: Really now? What is it for me?
Edmond: Uhm...well I don't really have much..but how about one man teleporters and an ability analyzer?
Emilia: Interesting..I'll be there.

"Sooo how did it go?", Claid asked Edmond.
"She'll be here", Edmond replied.
After a few minutes Emilia texted Edmond to come out. Edmond met Emilia at the gate and the two went behind the rock again. The rock opened and Emilia's face is in surprise. The two went down and went straight to the computer.
"What is this place?", Emilia asked.
"This is supposed to be a hidden bunk of our dads.", Claide answered.
"This is the computer I was talking about.", Edmond added.
"Let me see here...", Emilia said while typing in the computer.
After a few minutes of fidgeting around Emilia was finally done.
"This damn thing is too encrypted and protected. What I figured out though is that it needs a sort of key and I keep getting the code for pocketwatch", Emilia said.
"Pocket watch?? Wait..here", Claide said while giving the pocket watch to Emilia.
While emilia was examining the pocket watch she clicked a little button at the side and suddenly a flashdrive appeared at it's bottom.
"You ding dongs this thing had the key all along.", Emilia exclaimed.
Emilia plugged in the flashdrive. The computer started reading the flashdrive and the record finally continued.
This organization is called the Watcher Foundation. This foundation documents all the agendas, hidden documents, reports, news and basically everything that can be exploitrd about the RCHM. You are now a part of this. I'm sorry for fiving you this burden my son. I never planned to actually involve you but yet..here we are. I'm so sorry..
The record ended and a loading screen poped up. After a while loads of files appeared in the screen with different descriptions and names. A final written message appeard in the screen once more.
You are part of something bigger now.
