I never knew they existed. I thought they were just lies, I thought they were just messing with me. I always thought it was a dream, a nightmare actually.

And my powers, I thought they were unreal, I could move things with my mind. Overwhelmed with a mixed feeling of excitement and confusion, I forgot about the Mogadorians.

If this was real then surely they were. I had to find answers and the only one who had them was my so called 'Cepan' Russell. He was my only connection to my real parents. I was in fostercare for so long, I hardly even remember them. My 'Cepan' told me I was one of the garde, a so called 'gifted' select citizens of Lorien, a far distant planet in this galaxy and we had special abilities called legacies and enhancements like advanced strength, speed, agility, stamina, endurance and durability. I was told these as a toddler and I thought they were just stories when I got older. But there was something about those stories that felt real and safe. Well, apart from the mogadorians I wished all of it was true.

The mogadorians are another advanced species from the far distant of the galaxy and like the loric, but they were more ruthless and brutal. They invaded lorien, destroying almost all in there path and ransacking precious gems and resources to re-boost their damaged planet. Setrakus Ra is their leader and a Loric Elder. Why is he attacking and betraying his own people?

Well, he might not even be a loric and still be a garde and elder like me.

Ten of the garde and their cepans survived and seeked refuge on earth. There were only supposed to be nine of us but I've had dreams of a tenth member of the garde arriving on earth which I know is true.

The answers I look for are not to be found. I know I will not see Russell again, I saw him killed, murdered by the mogadorians. At the time I thought they were human and I blamed myself for his death, if only I believed him and discovered my legacies earlier he would still be alive. All I have now, that are my only sources of answers is a big chest that is supposed to store objects that have special uses and are part of my inheritance. I also have a letter from Russel telling me what to do, an ancient book on the loric elders, legacies and prophesy and a book on loric and mogadorian history.

As much as I hope this will give me answers, I am almost sure it won't give me enough. I'm almost sure what Russell told me is true, I don't want it to be, but I know it is, but I still question the prophesy but it does fit in with the conspiracy the Mogadorians and Setrakus Ra kept from lorien and the garde.

There weren't just ten elders there were twelve, and ten members of the garde did get to earth but there were already two there. I am one of the the two.

I am Number Eleven.
