Prologue:

Clint sighed as he worked out in the fields. He squinted at the sun, before smiling at his family. They smiled back, and continued to work. Clint lived in a small village not far from the East Citadel, which made it the most likely target for Highroller and Twin Masters. However, they were under the protection of Big Green, which reassured most of the villages.

He shivered. The only relief that anyone in Hidden Kingdom had nowadays was the knowledge that Lin Chung could hope to beat Twin Masters, also having the same yet opposite power of the demonic force.

The sun was suddenly blocked out, and Clint looked up, frowning. They would have been able to tell if there was going to be a storm soon. And there had been no warning: No thunder, no lightning, no nothing. His eyes widened at the sight. Dark thick clouds were covering the sun. He narrowed his eyes. Or what he thought were dark thick clouds. No rain, though.

They were definitely moving. Moving fast and moving continuously. A light red and blue aura surrounded them, and that gave him a bad feeling. He looked at his wife, who was looking as scared as him, covering their little son's eyes with her hand. Nodding to her, they silently had a conversation, reaching an answer quickly.

Clint walked back into his house.

Time to report to Big Green.

"My! Thank you for reporting this to us, Clint. You have been very kind." Apetrully smiled at the visitor, bidding Elephant King, who had escorted him, show him back to his village. "You can be certain that we will take care of this!" He called after the villager, who nodded his consent.

Apetrully sighed, letting his facade drop as the two others left the room. Pressing the button to call First Squad, he sat back and waited for them to arrive.

It didn't take very long. Lin Chung arrived first, followed soon by Mystique Sonia and Mighty Ray, both arguing rather heatedly, then Jumpy Ghostface, looking confused. Mr. NoHands had apparently decided to come at this meeting, and Apetrully thanked the fact.

He quickly reported the news to First Squad, resulting in them looking to Lin Chung for help. He frowned. "Tien Kwan have not spoken to me about this."

"Do you think we should go and see this?" Mystique Sonia asked.

Mighty Ray puffed up his chest arrogantly. "Of course! And we'll take care of this. Highroller and Twin Masters couldn't hope to beat First Squad!" This resulted in a large blue tongue whacking him at the back of the head. Apetrully turned to the leader of First Squad, who was nodding slowly.

"We shall go and see the cause."
