“We know you’re already here.” Claud's voice boomed out. His muscles were already pulled taut with tension.“Jeez, If you’re going to yell, at least give us warning so we can take off the earpiece.” Zakaria complained with a wince. “A new eardrum is not easy to come by.”“Shut up. I’m trying to concentrate.” Claud whispered into his earpiece before continuing. “Come out let’s settle this like men.”The boss turned to her right man, the one who suspected this whole setup to be a trap. “Go on then.” She started. “Find out what they want.”He grumbled before stepping out.“You’re the boss?” Claud asked. “I believe I am.”“I was actually expecting someone more powerful.” Claud said. “What are you? An ogre too?”He was surprised that Claud knew about the ogres but he kept his cool. “I’m a changeling.”“Sure whatever.”“I assume you called out to us because you wanted to return the crystal you stole?”“I don’t think it’s considered stealing if it was taken from someone who also stole it.”

The mission IIIDamien’s consciousness returned in waves, his mind sluggishly emerging from the thick veil of darkness. At first, he was aware of the ground beneath him—soft, earthy, and uneven. The smell of damp leaves and the faint, mossy scent of the forest filled his nose. Slowly, he blinked his eyes open, groaning as his body protested every movement.He was lying In a clearing, the towering trees forming a natural wall around him. Sunlight trickled through the canopy, casting long shadows that danced on the ground. For a moment, Damien just lay there, disoriented, trying to piece together how he’d gotten there. The last thing he remembered was being overrun by trolls and then… those figures. They weren’t human, that much he knew.His heart skipped a beat. Where were they now? Where was he? Panic surged through him, and he sat up quickly, his breath coming in sharp gasps. The clearing was eerily quiet. There was no sign of the people who had saved him, nor any indication of th

Damien got back home to an annoyed grandmother and a worried Clary. “Where have you been?”“Oh, grandma. I didn’t expect to see you there.”“Answer me. Did you run out on your training?”“No... No. Well actually yes but hear me out first. I met a man in the woods.”“What exactly were you looking for in the woods?”“Nothing really, I kind of felt a pull there and when I got there, I got ambushed by big strong creatures…”“…trolls.”“Then I was saved by some people. They said they were forest werewolves. The name of their leader was Wul… Wul.. Wul something Wolf.”“Wulfric Wolf.”“How do you know who he is?”“He was my husband and your grandfather. I haven’t seen him since… since the war.” Tara said. “If I ever lay my eyes on him I’m going to tear him limb from limb.”“What happened?”“He chose his pack over me and his son, that’s what. A war between Forest and mountain werewolves broke out and your dad abandoned us to side with his Forest werewolf pack. Family means sacrifices, making

SecretsLycidas surged forward, his fists glowing with raw energy as he slammed into the girl. She barely had time to react as the first blow connected, sending her spiraling through the air. Her body twisted violently, but she recovered mid-flight, summoning a barrier of energy around herself. Lycidas was relentless, smashing through her defenses with a brutal series of punches.He struck her midsection, his fist landing with a thunderous impact that folded her body in half. A shockwave rippled outward, and the girl gasped, winded from the force of the hit. She retaliated with a swift kick aimed at his head, but Lycidas caught her leg with a swift motion, twisting her limb before flinging her into the ground. The earth trembled beneath her as she crashed, leaving a crater in her wake.Grimacing in pain, the girl pushed herself up, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth. Her eyes blazed with fury, but Lycidas didn’t give her time to recover. He was upon her again in an insta

Lycidas’ glowing eyes remained fixed on the horizon, his path of destruction unwavering as he raised his hand again, this time aiming toward the outskirts of the city.In a moment of desperation, Claud rose once more from the ground, his muscles straining as he forced himself to his feet. Blood dripped from his forehead, but his determination burned hotter. “I’m not letting him destroy the city,” he growled, raising his hands toward the sky.Drawing on every ounce of his elemental power, Claud conjured a massive water bubble that formed around Lycidas. The bubble grew larger and larger, encasing him entirely. Lycidas, still consumed by the power of the crystal, didn’t react at first, but soon the lack of air began to affect him. He thrashed inside the bubble, fists slamming against the walls of water, but the more he fought, the tighter Claud made the bubble.“Come on…just a little more…” Claud whispered, his voice strained with effort as he held the water bubble in place, beads of s

Secrets IIClaud was home with Lycidas and the others nursing their wounds when he heard a loud bang upstairs from Damien’s room. He went their cautiously and saw Damien there with an unknown man.“Dammy, what’s going on? Why are you back so early and who’s that?”“Hi I’m Jeremy.” The man said, extending his hand for a handshake but was snubbed by Claud.“You’re unbelievable dad.” Damien started. “So you sent me to England so you can take over my mission?”“What gave you that ridiculous idea?” Claud asked.“I think that’s my cue to leave.” Jeremy said before disappearing. “Well, for one. The news. The forest’s explosion? You and I know that only you are capable of causing so much havoc without leaving a trace.”“Yeah, ‘no one will notice’.” Lycidas said from across the room. “Now’s not the time for sarcasm Lycidas.” Claud shouted back.“Who’s that?” Damien asked. “Just some friends that I called.”“So you took me out of my mission so you could put in your friends?”“It’s not like t

After what felt like hours, but was probably only minutes, Matilda stood up from the ledge, brushing her hands against her jeans. “Come on,” she said, offering Damien a hand as she hopped down to the solid rooftop. “Let’s get out of here.”He took her hand, her warmth lingering as they made their way back through the stairwell and down to the street. The city still buzzed with life as they walked side by side, the neon lights flashing, casting colorful reflections on the wet pavement from a recent drizzle.As they left the noise of the rooftop behind, the atmosphere shifted. It wasn’t tense, but something quieter lingered between them now, a silent understanding from the shared view they’d had. They didn’t speak much as they moved through the streets, their footsteps falling into an easy rhythm.Eventually, they reached Damien’s neighborhood—a quieter, more residential part of Riverdale, tucked away from the city’s chaos. His place was a modest, modern apartment complex, built with sl

New playersDamien snuck out of the house to hang out with Matilda. He knew that if he told his parents or anybody there that he was going to meet a celestial, they would literally lock him up. No one even noticed that he was gone because they were too busy trying to discover what the arbiter could be planning.“He can’t really be trying to take over the world the way he did the last time can he?”“That’ll be too predictable.” Claud said. “He’ll want to do what we least expect.”“So what do you think he’s planning then?” Lupa asked. “His daughter must be the one running all the errands for him.”“Whatever plan they have, they need the eldershard crystal to carry it out. If not she wouldn’t have risked everything just to get it back.”“The capabilities of the eldershard crystal is endless. We can’t say for a fact that this is what he wants to do with it or that is what he wants to do with it because there are so many things that can be done.” Lycidas said.“If you were the arbiter and
