This team is made up of Winter Schnee: Heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, struggling to find her own path. Eckhart Slate: Nephew of the General and Headmaster, gunning for that position. Ifiral Phenrix: Reborn in fire, hunting for the match that began it all, and their Leader Viralious R.: A boy longing for revenge on his mother's killer.

Pronunciation guide:

Eckhart: (Eck-Heart)

Ifiral: (If-ral)

Phenrix: (Fen-Rix)

Plot adjacent: Fits mostly with cannon ages are probably the biggest hang up.

Rated M due to language violence and mature themes

Current possible Tags:Adventure, Drama, Humor, Romance, Sci-fi/Fantasy (How do I exactly describe Remnant?) Angst and maybe just maybe a little bit of crime... I know that's a lot of tags but it's mostly going to go between the Adventure, Drama and Humor... A lot of humor surprisingly.

As for direction this story will be going, most characters will be OC's, some might be related to some familiar faces from the show. But I am going to try and keep them to minor characters… well minus two as for those you will have to wait and see.(Hint one is spoiled in the synopsis)

I don't think there will be a consistent update schedule for this as my schedule is straight up not consistent and varies basically week by week (thank you college engineering program) Feel free to leave a review or PM me where you think the story is heading and I may confirm or play dumb if you guess it right.

I have a typical idea of how I want this story to go and have the Major plot points planned out(As of writing the entirety of the first arc is written and the second and first part of the third is storyboarded) but some small fluff stuff I would gladly accept ideas for.

I would also like to thank my Editor(Not a Beta since they have yet to make their account) AmoebaHewdraw, without him there would be a LOT more grammar mistakes. Mostly random Capitalizations... and homophones.
