Jane's P.O.V

I carry the pair of scissors down to the lab where a young, blonde headed lady runs around like a mom looking for her baby. "Lady Ellen, I have news." I say as I watch the woman run around. "Once second.... Jane, I seemed to have misplaced my glasses, will you help me?" She replies. "Well..... They're on your head....." I say with a giggle in my voice. She pauses and pats her head, feeling her lenses. "Oh so that's where I put them... Very well. Now what is your news?" She laughs as she walks over to me, seeing the scissors in my hand. "Sam was attacked about 20 minutes ago while out on the range. This is what she was attacked with." I explain as I carefully place the scissors in her hands. "Oh no.... Sam wasn't running with these again was she?" Ellen asks sighing. "Ha ha no no, they were thrown at her. If my thoughts are correct, that pair of scissors are from the 15th century.... Correct?" I ask. She puts them down on a table and looks at them with a magnifying glass. "It seems like your right. These were used by blacksmiths in the mid 15th century, around the time when knights and Grimmers existed." She says as she looks up at me with huge eyes, reflected in her glasses. I let out a laugh. "What are Grimmers?" I ask and sit on the counter. She sits next to me and explains that Grimmers are midieval monsters that roam villages and towns for humans to prey on. They kill people and eat their limbs.... That's when a group was formed. A group of heros known as the cyclones. They dress in a certain color that lets people know which one was who. They also wear body armor in which the color shows what rank they are. "Wow..... How many were there?" I asked, totally interested now. "There were 4. Their names were Samantha, Eve, Clare and Zoe. Eve wore royal purple clothing and a cape. She also wore light silver armor which showed she was rank 4. Clare wore a green cape and clothing under grey body armor which symbolized she was a rank 3. Zoe wore light blue clothing and a cape with dark silver body armor, she was rank 2. The leader of the Cyclones was Samantha. She wore bright yellow clothing and a cape alined in gold, with pitch black body armor. She was rank 1, the greatest hero from miles to come." She finished as she jumped down and took the scissors into inventory. I sat on the counter thinking about what I had just heard. Wow..... They sound so cool. I wonder how we would be ranked if we were Cyclones... I jumped when I heard a loud crash in the inventory room. "Lady Ellen? Are you okay?" I called out. Suddenly I heard a loud thud then Lady Ellen screamed. I ran to the doorway to assist her, but she was on the ground with a bloody lip, no one else around. Suddenly I was struck and pushed out of the way, knocking into a cart. I slid down and the thing punched me, then ran out the lab door. "What the....... What....." I panted, scared out of my mind. "Jane.... Are you alright?" Lady Ellen asked walking out of the inventory room and offering me a hand. I took her hand and she helped me up. "Yeah, but that thing just ran off with our evidence..." I replied, breathing somewhat steadily. "Yeah..... An invisible man attacked us and ran off with a blood printed pair of old scissors.... And might still be in the building. Activate code 7-11A92." She ordered as she walked over to her laptop and typed rapidly. I held my breath as I proceeded to a red button on the wall. I hesitated but pressed it and all the lights when out in the building except the lab.
