Sienna hated lectures, especially at the end of the day. Her amber eyes watched the minutes go by as Mr. Ashton went on and on about some insignificant battle in an even more insignificant war. To her, it was all nonsense, even her classmates seemed to agree as they were either on their phones or were quietly talking to each other, keeping their voices down to avoid getting detention. Sienna mindlessly began to wrap a strand of her light brown curly locks around her finger, dazing off until the afternoon bell rang. Immediately, all the students went straight for the door, hoping to escape the prison known as school.

"Miss Sienna, could you wait for just a moment?" The brunette stopped in her tracks, not knowing why she had been stopped by Mr. Ashton.

"Is there something wrong, Mr. Ashton?" Sienna kept her composure calm, but inside she was shaking like a leaf. Gray Ashton was one of the older teachers at the school and yet he held an enthusiasm for his job that would come from someone who just got out of college.

"No, no, in fact, I have some good news." He pulled something out from his desk. It was a slim white letter with the name, Sienna Miriam Shields. On the back was a red wax stamp with the emblem of the Terran Order. It was a helmet similar to the one worn by Roman soldiers, a sentence spiraled around it, Aut Vincere Aut Mori. Despite its beauty when spoken out loud, the translation was crude and foul.

Either Conquer or Die, that was the blood soaked motto of the Terran Order. it was one of the things Sienna didn't like about the Order, but it was still her home. Sienna opened the letter carefully and pulled out a piece of parchment typed out in such small lettering that Sienna had to squint her eyes just to read it. Her eyes widened as she read the parchment.

Miss Sienna Shields,

Your teacher, Mr. Gray Ashton, has requested your admission to the Terran Order's Youth Infantry, a special group of trained hunters dedicated to the capture and execution of the creatures known as Fairies. Though we usually wait to recruit until a candidate's senior year, your brilliant mind and academic achievements have earned you marks beyond the ordinary. This is an opportunity not many are given, an honor many are proud of, we implore you to accept your admission and use that brilliant mind of yours to further help mankind.

From, Director Steele.

Sienna's heart stopped, her skin turned pale, this was too soon, this was too early. She had just turned 16 a few weeks ago, celebrating with her family, thinking of future plans.

Now they were expecting her to go to war. She couldn't stomach the thought of being on the battlefield, much less fighting in a war.

"I-I don't know what to say, can I have some time to think about it?" Sienna handed the letter back to Mr. Ashton. He looked confused, then smiled as if he understood what was going on in my panicked mind

"Of course, it's a big decision, though I do know that the Terran Order needs more brilliant minds like yours, they need strategists to win this war against Tir Nan Og, but I know you'll make the right choice in the end."

As Sienna walked along the school halls, Mr. Ashton's words echoed in her mind. She nervously She knew many of her peers would do anything to gain a spot in the Infantry, it was considered an honor and a dream to many, but Sienna wanted nothing to do with it.

She hated war, she hated all the blood and violence, it made her sick whenever one of her classes would show pictures or videos of battles. Though, if it meant being remembered and standing out in the Order, maybe she should accept it...after all it seemed better She was snapped out of her thoughts when her phone vibrated, it was her sister.

Hey, where are you?

Sienna realized her mistake and quickly texted back while running through the halls.

Sorry, be there soon.

As she made her way to the empty parking lot of the school, except for a small used silver car waiting near the front. Sienna rushed to it, she was out of breath and almost ready to pass out.

"You alright, Sia?" You're usually out here way before the others have left." Her older sister chuckled. The two sisters shared some similarities with their amber eyes and light skin, but Sienna's sister, Athena, had sleek pale blonde hair and had a more mature look to her with the dark green turtle neck she wore.

"Sorry, Thea." As she said this, she buckled into the passenger seat. "I got held back by Mr. Ashton at the end of class."

"He's usually really nice, did something happen?" Athena also had Mr. Ashton, so he was glad to have another Shields in his class a few years later.

"No, nothing like that, just some news." She tried to reassure Athena it was nothing, but the blonde wasn't convinced.

"Good or bad news?" She asked as she drove along the street.

"A little bit of both?" Sienna hesitantly chuckled, Athena raised an eyebrow, but didn't say anything else about it. Once they reached their house, which consisted of a small apartment in the more rustic part of the city, she told her about the letter.

"Wait, so you got admitted to the most lethal team in the Order and you don't know if you should accept it?" Athena summarized Sienna's story in the shortest way possible. She nodded, hoping her reaction wasn't too extreme.

Instead, she laughed. Her laugh cut through the silence as the two of them stood on the front porch of their house.

"What's so funny?" Sienna asked.

"Mr. Ashton did the same thing to me when I was your age."

"Really?!"

"Yes, but I said no and you should do the same."

"But you're amazing! Everyone tries to beat your records on the obstacle course and you have the highest scores in the school! Why throw such an opportunity away!?"

"Opportunity, yeah, right." Athena scoffed then sighed when she noticed Sienna's outraged glare, "Look, sis, this war is nothing but bloodshed and violence, you and I both know that, so don't delusion yourself that it will somehow change you."

"But-"

"But, nothing. War isn't glorious, it isn't honorable, it isn't even heroic." Athena snapped, her voice turned cold and serious, "It's all about survival and staying alive, which is what we'll do. It's better just to stay out of it, than cause more destruction and violence, like those so called noble hearted Paladins are doing out there!"

Sienna didn't speak, she was taken back by her sister's words and her knees began to shake. She had never seen her sister like this and it frightened her. So she simply nodded which lightened Athena's gaze.

"Good, now let's get inside, mom and dad's making some spaghetti and meatballs tonight!" Athena smiled again as if the conversation never took place. Sienna nodded once more and followed her inside. During dinner, she tried to act normal by eating and making small talk, then went to her room to get some homework, which wasn't what she was doing.

Instead, she was staring at the letter, going through every word over and over again. Athena's exclamation made her hands shake, she wanted so badly to crumple up the parchment, but something was holding her back.

What if there's a chance she could change all that violence and destruction? Maybe stop it from happening?

But she shook her head, she knew she couldn't stop all that hate, after all, the Terran Order wanted to destroy their enemy at any cost.

In her classes, she was taught the fairies were the ones who started the war.

That must make them evil...right?

As she drifted off to sleep, the parchment slipped from her fingers and she became surrounded by darkness, Sienna didn't notice the creatures staring at the house in anticipation. Most of them had silted red eyes and had claws, except for a large troll like creature, it was sniffing the air and turned in the direction of one of the red ghouls.

"Alert the boss that we've found her."

"We've found the lost Princess of Domino." The troll smirked in the direction of the apartment.
