Power of Three
Prologue
"The time has come," said a female voice.
Two moons shine in the dark of night. They shine on the top of a castle in the exact middle of a largest city. A woman dressed in royalty sat in a chair, has beautiful silver hair, blue eyes, and has the face of an angel. She is wearing a diamond necklace and black robes with stripes of golden on the arms and back of the robes. Black pants, with black shoes. And her hands on her lap, she has a diamond ring on her left hand ring finger. This woman is the queen of her kingdom.
"The time has come," said the woman, saying it once more.
"The time has come," said four different voices. Hidden in the dark, four people are bowing to the woman. Three males and one female, there faces are hidden in the dark, and each of them wore clothes that matches the night.
"My children, the time has come for your tests. All four of you have worked hard on your skills, and studied hard. You all know what the test is about, right?" she asks them, her face shows gentleness.
"Yes," said all four of them.
"Then rise," said the queen. All four of them stood up, the female is five feet and ten inches tall. And two males are six feet tall while the third is six feet and four inches tall. "My children, all of you know the prize for the one who passes the test?"
"Yes," said all four of them.
"Then make me proud, make your late father proud," said the queen.
"We will," said all four of them.
"Then go, and face your destiny," said the queen. She points with her right hand, pointing ahead. Then all four of them who stood to the queen's attention, they all turn around to face behind them.
Far above, the two moons almost seem to be touching each other. But really, one moon is about to go behind the other. One moon is red as blood, while the other is the same color as the queen's hair, silver.
The moment the two moons became one, a dark light shines from it. Almost like lightning, it struck at the middle of the area where the four are looking. As soon as it happened, a blinding light appears, brightening the area.
The sudden wind blows around the force, blowing away from it. As the light shine, the four people's faces were almost revealed. But the light ended, and in its place is a black whirlpool facing them. Like an open rift to somewhere else.
The four people begin to walk towards it, and the light shined for a second time. Only to reveal one part of their faces that glowed. The female has a bluish mark that is glowing right under her left eye, in a shape of a thunderbolt. One male has a dark reddish mark that is glowing on his forehead, in a shape of an eye. The second male has a yellowish mark that is glowing on his chin, in a shape of a trident. Then the last, the tallest male has a white mark glowing on his neck, in a shape of a crescent moon.
The moment those four entered into the rift, they're gone from the queen's sight. And when the two moons became separate, the rift vanishes.
The queen sighed, and she said, "Only one will succeed…"
