Chapter 1
Chaos
Chaos ensued. Sorcerers were dashing around wildly all around them. They'd just come back from a mission in Greece where they had to stop a rogue sorcerer from revealing himself to the mortals. Me, Vex Crimson, and my squad of elite bounty hunters were on our way to a briefing with the Grand Mage and the Elders when a bomb was heard on the lower levels and we were sent to check it out by the Sanctuary's administrator.
Suddenly we were attacked by a group of mages. After staring at them, I punched a young, blonde mage (no older than 100) across the jaw and he went flying across the corridor. I saw one of my men, an Indian Mage by the name of Severus Ash, get knocked down by a man the size of a mountain, but then another one of our men, an English elemental known as Brutus Quest, lowered the air pressure around the giant, suffocating him. Then it clicked. This group was just a distraction. I sent an English Necromancer by the name of Bane Humble along with two Russian mages, another Necromancer named Erica Fade and an Energy Thrower called Legacy Rapture to check on the Grand Mage and the Elders.
After we finished dealing with the rest of the ambush, we raced back to the council rooms, where we met Bane, Erica & Legacy.
"Elder Silver's in his room" Legacy said, clearly panting with his cheeks completely red.
"So is Elder Ballad." added Erica.
Then Bane, his eyes wide in shock, replied "But Grand Mage Luck isn't in her room!"
"Oh My God," said an English Necromancer called Dawn Fang. "What do we do now?" she asked.
"I think we should just assume that she's already dead." answered Severus.
"Uh well, so do I" agreed an Indian Energy Thrower who went by the name of Megane Echo.
An Irish Energy Thrower called Victor Diablo said "Come on guys. We were payed to do as the Sanctuary told us to."
Then Quest said "Well then, what do the Sanctuary want us to do?"
An English Sigil Master named Paige Halo asked "Yeah, what does the Sanctuary want us to do?"
Then I answered "It doesn't matter what the Sanctuary wants us to do, we should do this anyway because I know the Sanctuary will pay us a lot of money. So I'm going to do it and anyone who wants some money can come too."
They all then stood there for a moment considering it, then there was a chorus of agreements and we marched out of the Sanctuary aware of our new mission with only one complication, where on earth was the Grand Mage?
