Xina sat patiently on her throne. For some reason, Rauxlen couldn't stop staring at her like she was waiting for Xina to do something. Quite frankly, she couldn't remember anything from the night before. All she remembered was feeling a needle jabbed in her neck then a few minutes later Rauxlen trying to wake her. She could have sworn there was more, but every time she'd try to remember...her head started aching. To ease her mind, and get over her extreme boredom, Xina summoned her sketch book and supplies and began drawing again.
Rauxlen stared at Xina, hoping she would tell her something about the night before. Xina just stared.
I guess she doesn't remember anything... She would have told me something... thought Rauxlen. She couldn't read minds, but she could usually pick out the best explanation to things.

Cyolx was panting from the fight with his "brother,” who had the nature element that he could also use for poison, so anything he touched could become covered in poison, like the scythe he had in his hand. Cyolx was running out of energy and options. He heard the Superior calling him in his head. "I would love to chat with you some more but I need to be going," Cyolx yelled over his only defense left: a wall of ice. With his energy fading, he sprinted forward opened a portal of darkness and ran in, but not before the other man nicked his shoulder with his blade. He ran into the room with the other members; his breathing was becoming more ragged and he gasped, "We have company," with that he toppled over and fainted.
The Superior looked in disbelief at Cyolx...
I thought there would be more time... he thought. It was time to be a leader.
Alright every one meet me in Twilight Town, in Yen Sid's old castle, top floor, this is NOT optional. The consequences will be fatal if you don’t. Now go! The Superior had sent the mental message to all 15 members, hopefully they would get it. As everyone left, the Superior ran out the door to battle the menace terrorizing his companions.
Xina and Rauxlen left immediately. Txamt was about to open a portal when he noticed Cyolx lying there.
Thanks for the help girls…not he thought as he picked up the Frosty Knight and carried him along.

Meanwhile, in shadow an unknown force took those brought to the world and returned them to their own... He soon returned, but found that the Organization had all left...
Finally, some fun... The stranger prepared for the hunt...
This comes into play in Part 2: The Apprentices

Rauxlen was first in the study.
Guess I will do some reading she thought as she settled in.
Kinxu slowly ascended the long stair case to the top of Yen Sid's tower. She was ordered to meet there within one week. But seeing as she was new to the Organization, she would rather be early than be late. Kinxu had long wavy blond hair that was tied back. She tucked a stand of hair behind her ear as she got to another door. Proceeding through, she noticed she still had two more stair cases to walk up. She sighed softly and summoned a dark corridor and walked in. She reopened the portal into Yen Sid's study. She noticed someone other than her was also there. She tapped her crystal finger nails on the paneling of the door.
Xina came through just as Rauxlen looked up and noticed the other member. Xanele soon followed, and so did Txamt. “I thought, you had Cyolx,” Rauxlen asked him.
“He was right here,” he said. “But…”
Before he could finish his sentence they all heard a voice, “Help?” They all looked out the tower window. Cyolx was dangling from the ledge below. “Well, that didn’t go according to plan,” he said to himself.
Rauxlen was getting slightly annoyed by all the noise; she was trying to read… She flicked her wrist and opened a portal just below Cyolx. He fell through it and out another onto the floor in the tower.
