This is the prologue to the story, The Divided Family. You can read this part first, or last, doesn't matter that much. Unless you want to understand what's going on (background history).
Arthur's Note: I figured I should clarify some things before starting the story. This story takes place on Neopia, the world of Neopets. (go to Neopets dot com to find out more about that!) But neopia has changed much since I started to write this story, so some things no longer match up with the Neopet World of today. So here is the background history: This story takes place before the 2nd Battle for Meridell plot, before the Lost Desert Plot, before Hannah and the Ice Caves plot, before The Curse of Maraqua plot, before the Tale of Woe plot, before the Journey to the Lost Isles plot, before The Cyodrake's Gaze Plot, and before the Return of Dr. Sloth plot. This story also takes place before they discovered/created the other side of the world, so it was only the first few places that we knew of and could go to (Faerie Land, Neopia Central, Terror Mountain, Haunted Woods, Lost Desert, Meridell, Mystery Island, Krawk Island, Tyrannia). ( I know, a lot has happened since the start of my writing this story) I can't really change the story to fit the times (since it would mess with the story), so I'm just saying, it happened long ago. This story also takes place before Neopets came out with the NC Mall (where you can buy and put clothes on your neopets), so in this story, all the pets are naked (in a sense). DO NOT TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY! Don't think of them being naked like humans, but naked like animals (without their private parts showing), since that is how the original way neopets were on Neopets , they didn't wear clothes, but weren't considered 'naked'. I may have them wear clothes later on in later stories or I may not, but DON'T TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY. I've also changed my account since the start of writing this story, so here's clarification about that. This story takes place before my pets were painted, and before I had four pets. In the beginning of my account and this story, I have only two pets, a yellow Lupe and a yellow Wocky. I got my other two pets later on, and I painted them later on (this will be covered in later stories dealing with my pets). I've also changed my neohome (original neohome, not the new prettier version of neohomes), so now my neohome is much larger than what it once was. I'll explain what it was like during the story. And so here it goes!:
This is a Story of good and evil. Of The Lightning Warrior and of Chaos of the Night and their many clashes. But this is also a story of twists and secrets, and beware to those faint of heart. Listen closely to the tale...
Deep underground, under Neopian Central, is an organization called S.A.O.N., Secret Agents Of Neopia. This organization was created in the beginning of Neopian Society, to serve and protect the pets of Neopia from evil criminal masterminds. They sent agents out to stop the more difficult crimes that the regular police force can't handle. They usually sent out agents in pairs, an older one to train the younger, but that tradition was on hold for now, due to the latest criminal mastermind, Chaos of the Night. The organization's current leader, known to most as the 'Chief', didn't want to endanger the only agent that they had left. That agent was Warrior of Lighting, and since she didn't have an older partner, she didn't get that many missions. But that was about to change...
