"Surprises are around us"
It was a day much like any other. People are on their way home, the night life of the town starting to gleam and glisten through the city skyline. But just as peaceful as it gets, not far from the center a dome could be seen by those with the power of the ancient Artifacts; a series of different weapons or gear that houses the power of the known and unknown elements. All things inside the dome, be it man or machine or animal, is brought to a halt as if in suspended animation. Amidst the dome and the streets below a hulking beast of darkness lurches here and there, ripping the people apart, taking their life essence that each person has. As it was about to strike at its final victim, it was intercepted by a flash of lightning that seared the part of it that could be recognized as its chest. After which was pummeled by an array of a combination of fire and ice. It stood tall and overshadowed its opponent. It picked up a piece of debris that it made as it worked its way earlier as it hunted and flung it towards the silhouette.
As the debris reached its target it was then stopped by a gleaming golden shield that had a silver outline and a red plate at its center while another silhouette appeared behind it. The creature flung more debris to the two but neither of them moved an inch. The one with the shield then jumped high enough to match the creatures height, that was roughly the size of a two-story house, drew a blade from behind the shield and impaled the beast to the ground causing it to wildly flail its arms. But as it hopelessly struggled it was soon met by the same lightning but in the form of a bolt that descended from four directions until it was unable to move. The dark aura that it emitted disappeared as it was lying limp on the cold ground revealing a small dog that it consumed and the sword that impaled it fell not far from the pup then disappeared like the wind.
The two male silhouettes stood together before the pup. "looks like the Darkwolf is contained, nice job" one said. "alright, alright, lemme contact the old man." the other replied as he was taking a phone out of his pocket. He pressed the speed dial button and as soon as the call was picked up he answered: "yo old man...yeah...mmhm...yep, just a few casualties...uh huh...okay bye thanks" he the pressed the 'end call' button. Suddenly as he put his phone away an aura bearing both light and dark enveloped the area inside the dome that restored half of the peoples life essences as well as the enormous damage of the fight. As soon as the area was restored, the dome itself vanished into thin air.
The two figures stood above a building overlooking the area and was soon joined by two more. "Fifth incident this month, it seems to be getting more and more recent these days" one figure holding a book said. "This is our town, and we must protect it as we always do" the other one said as she flipped her hair to the wind. "c'mon guys...lets go home" the figure with the shield said as the all disappeared into the shadow of the city. Who are these mysterious characters? What power do they possess? Friend or Foe?
