Slums/Palace Gates "Idiots." Cass mumbled to himself as an excited brood of urchins hurried past him towards the Palace. Even if the reward was real, what chance would a bunch of slum rats have at seeing any of it? How many would end up getting themselves killed in this bloody farce? The...

The Slums @Trektek In a back alley, dregs of rancid sewerage flowed slowly down an open gutter. Cass slouched against the cobble walls of a rundown house, he sank his teeth into a stale loaf of bread and tugged hard to tear a piece away. The stubborn loaf complied after a brief struggle, he...

"Luckily for us, she was quiet at that meeting." Warner chuckled. "A speck of dust?" The master scratches the back of his head. "Well, it's better than nothing at least." He places his hand on the boy's shoulder. " Don't dwell on the past. You can't do anything to affect it. It's already done...

"For long enough." Warner's smile turned sour. "You can wish all you want but that won't change the reality. I'm sure if your family lived and you died they'd be wishing that they had died instead. " He came into the room closer. "As for the why. I don't know. You'll have to ask Mr. Turner but I...

The meeting came to an abrupt end, the masters filed out. Mr Turner stayed behind with Bines. They were to discuss something in private. They were most likely going to visit the new 'Guests'. Master Aiden Warner made his way up to Mr Turner's room. When he arrived he saw nobody, he was looking...

Chapter Two - The Meeting In a long room, several people sit around a large mahogany table. At the far end of the table is the secretary, Ms Clark, sat with a laptop. Opposite to her, at the other end of the table an empty black chair, Mr Turner's throne stood at the head of the table. To the...

"The fridge in here will do." The old man replied itching his scalp. "The board members get a bit grumpy when non-board members barge into the meetings. You should retrieve a gallon. So we don't run out as fast next time. Now off you go."

"Go buy me some milk." The old man smiled, handing him a few dollars from an old torn wallet in his back pocket. "Semi-skimmed if you don't mind. Thank you." Mr Turner laughed. He may have seemed mad but there was a method behind it. His young apprentice needed to be trained in how to bare the...

"Yes." Mr Turner smirked. "But don't get ahead of yourself." Mr Trurner opened his palm and created a ball of light the size of a beach ball in a second flat without any effort. "You still have a long way to go." He smiled, teasing Vamond. He destroyed the ball of light as fast as he created...

A few moments went by and nothing was happening. Vamond's arm began to grow weak and tired. "Nevermind" Mr Turner broke the silence. "You're not rea..." Mr Turner stopped and began to inspect Vamond's arm. "Look." He pointed. Vamond had created a tiny spec of light almost the size of a dust...

"Now you're going to need to focus for this." Mr Turnet holds out his hand and a bright ball of white energy appears in his hand. "You need to learn how to do this. Learn how to get the energy you have in here." Mr Turner pokes Vanond lightly in the chest with his cane. "Out." He begins to...

"I did indeed." Mr Turner's spirits rose hearing the news of his assistants leave. He twidled his cane and lifted his fingers to his lips. "But what I found, my young friend, that is my secret. I thank you though for riding me of the devil in heels." He almost leapt, like a younger man, out of...

"When he decides to come out tell him we'll be starting a meeting in half an hour. Thank you." The assistant trots away before the young boy could respond. Her heels clicking off of the floor as she retreats from the room. She leaves and the door clicks shut. A short break of silence before...

"Honestly." Ms Clark sneered in disapproval. "Still in bed at this hour. It's almost midday." She sighed. "Where is Mr Turner?" She stood with her hand on her hips.

"Dedicated. If you wish" The rain begins to come down a bit heavier. "We better get inside fast then." Mr Bines begins to walk back to the shelter of the building.

Mr. Turner's apartment is a two-floored penthouse with the first-floor holding: a living room, kitchen, dining room, a games room, library and personal training room The second-floor houses Mr. Turner's room and a dorm for the orphaned wards (however only one resides at HQ currently) and the...

"I see. I apologise for putting you two in so much danger." Bines bows his head slightly. "What you've said seems to confirm what Master Maddox has told me." He then looks at Jacob and half laughs. "Fair warning, I wouldn't call him a B class to his face. He is very proud of his A rank status. I...

"I'm sure it'll pass." Mr.Bines smiled. "Now, was there anything odd about the paranormal activity you encountered today?" The rain began to grow heavier, bouncing off the black umbrella.

Bines holds up the umbrella so Piper can get under it as well. "First of all are you both okay? I heard you had a close shave."

Mr Bines came around the corner into the parking lot. "You can go home. After I ask you a few questions." He put up an umbrella as the guards whisked the man away.
