SETTING: NIGHT, MIDDLE OF FOREST, 3 AM.
The [L.T.F] is a group of beings that run experiments; their plan for the world is to change it. Or better yet, fix it.
Their building is a highly guarded facility in the middle of the forest.
A girl with blonde hair walks into the [L.T.F] building. And 1 minute later, explosions can be heard. And inside the figure runs throughout the [L.T.F], killing every person in her sight. She dashes towards a particular room, as she busts down the door, soldiers stand ready to shoot at her.
A yell can be heard, "ERASURE!". And then, it all goes silent.
A blue beam blasts out of the other side of the building.
SETTING: DAY. MIDDLE OF TRINITY, THE CITY.
Trinity is a city located in the country of Fionage. The country of Fionage is made up of 5 different areas, each area having its own Star city. Star cities are cities that generate power for the government, mainly relying on tourists who come to check out Fionage.
The five areas are all connected by one place; tourists and people around the area call it 'Domain of King Arthur.' It's because it used to be a forest, and in the middle of the forest, there was a sword set in stone. Now all there lies is a statue of a man, holding a sword.
The statue has a stela, explaining the history of the man.
"Around 200 - 300 years ago, there was a man named 'Amata Uzugita', this man was deemed worthy of the sword that many know of as 'The Duality Blade'. And from that; he gained an gift from it. As others call it, an 'ability'. But with every gift comes a curse, there were sudden spikes in death tolls, survivors reported creatures of unknown potential. They were deemed 'Absolutes'.
Absolutes can feed on human energy; many have died from them this way. Absolutes have also been deemed abilities, hat they have exploited for their own evil.
One hundred years ago, Amata waged war against the absolutes. People gained abilities out of nowhere, reports say they felt their will speaking to them. Spotting of absolute rates started to spike as if a king was forcing the birth of millions upon millions of these creatures. Amata sent out a distress signal, bringing the people with the abilities, or as the people call them, the 'chosen' towards his location. A handful of people stood out to Amata, he called them his strike force.
They consisted of a trained ninja with fists of electricity, the leader of a clan ruled by laws, a woman with vines of darkness, Amata's brother, a young lady with energy like no other, and finally an archangel.
The strike force all had different groups, each going to a star city and taking down the absolutes, as Amata fought the king of absolutes. The war finally settled after Amata linked his life to a realm. With it, Amata banished every absolute into the realm, which was deemed the 'Asurgence'. While the stronger absolutes were unable to break the barrier to get through the portal; the weaker ones were able to pass through due to their smaller size.
Ever since the creation of the Asurgence, Amata has vanished off the face of this earth, people claiming to have seen him, as other suspect he's preparing for a grand threat. Unlike any other."
But for now, all we can do is wait.
A man, assuming he's 16-18, who looks around 5'6, with violet hair and dark blue eyes, walks around, holding a newspaper, and a bag with drinks.
In the newspaper, it reads 'BREAKING NEWS, RANDOM WAREHOUSE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FOREST HAS BEEN DESTROYED. WAREHOUSE IS REVEALED TO BE ILLEGAL LAB CREATING GENETICALLY MODIFIED ABSOLUTES.'
The man, named Ryoko, runs into a corner, climbs a ladder, then, activating his ability, creates a vine of darkness to scale the walls and lands on the roof.
'I still don't remember anything.. Nothing at all... But this ability, feels so.. Familiar...' Ryoko thinks to himself.
He slowly looks down at the street in front of him and spots an 'absolute'.
Ryoko looks down as he spots a person jumping down from a portal, killing the absolute.
As he sits back down, he begins creating a concoction of drinks, he pulls out the following

Ryoko mixes the drinks, alongside the jolly ranchers, as he eats the sandwich alongside the concoction
-A new point of view.-
A blue-haired man jumps through the previously mentioned portal. He's about 18, 5'7. This guy's deal is different; his name is Leon. He has a scar on the right side of his face, near his chin.
He loves flexing the scar; he doesn't know where he got it from, though. He lies and says he got it while fighting an absolute.
Leon drops down from the portal, he has a cat on his shoulder. The cat meows, closing the portal.
He spots an absolute, takes out his sword, and runs towards the absolute, slicing off the foot.
The foot rolls near Leon, the absolute spots this and explodes the foot. Forcing Leon towards a building, and he manages to latch onto a balcony. Leon lets go of the balcony, and as he falls, he creates a portal.
The portal leads to right under the absolute. Leon stabs the absolute at the bottom, before making a portal around the absolute, and closing the portal, cutting it in half.
Leon puts his sword in the sheath, and he hits a pose. Does he look stupid? I don't know, I'll leave it up to you guys to decide.
Leon walks away from the fight. He creates a portal, jumps through it, and lands in his apartment. He tosses his coat at a wall, collapsing on the couch. He puts on a random show and falls asleep.
But not before his pet cat, who is named 'Dime', jumps off the scratching post. But before Dime hits the floor, Dime makes a portal, landing on Leon's head.
A little while later...
After Leon's nap, he eventually woke up and decided to take a stroll across the city, and suddenly a man ran right past him, bumping shoulders with Leon.
"Hey! Get back here!" Leon exclaims, assuming the man is up to no good. He runs right after him, when suddenly, he feels a boost of adrenaline, Leon copies the man's abilities. He aims his palm out, shooting a blast of energy.
The blast hits the man and he turns around, shocked, running into an alleyway. Leon turns around, shoots a green orb blast at the floor, he uses the momentum to propel him, giving him a speed boost.
He grabs onto the man's shoulders.
The man has brown hair and dark green eyes.
"Who are you?" The man says.
"My name is Leon. Why are you running?" Leon asks.
"Because... Uh...! Look right behind you!" The man is clearly in a rush, but for what reason?
Leon listens to the man's words, looking right behind him. Nothing's there. When Leon turns back around, the man is running. This time, the man reaches a dead-end and flies up.
"What the hell?" Leon says, looking up. He begins climbing up and eventually reaches the top of the building, where the man sits. "My name is Enyo." The man says, or I guess, Enyo says.
"What?" Leon asks.
"Enyo, you asked me my name. It is Enyo. What about you?" Enyo asks.
"Uh.. Leon. Why were you running and in a rush?" Leon replies.
"Because.. I did something bad. I think there's gonna be some people hunting me down." Enyo says.
The two chat for a while, discussing their abilities.
(Ryoko's POV)
He's running towards an Absolute. He creates a vine of darkness that wraps around the absolute. Ryoko then stops and begins spinning around, like he's slinging the absolute, attempting to throw the absolute to the sun.
He makes a MAJOR miscalculation, swinging the absolute towards a building. He quickly starts swinging using his vines towards the building.
'Damn it... Seems I don't have a better grasp on this then I thought!'
(Back to Leon and Enyo's POV)
"What the hell?!" Enyo says. As an absolute crashes near them, the roof shakes, and the rooftop starts to crumble a bit.
Leon takes out his sword, and Enyo powers on his gauntlets. Energy courses through the tubes connected to the gauntlets, as he tightens his grip, the claws ready to strike.
Ryoko soars in the air as he sees two people ready to fight the Absolute, one with blue hair and the other with brown hair. He attaches a vine of darkness to the absolute, pulling it up, and kicking it back down.
Enyo and Leon both look up and see Ryoko.
"You know this guy?" Enyo asks
"Never seen him a day in my life! But his ability seems interesting!" Leon creates a vine and pulls the absolute towards him. "Oh SWEET! It's all yours, Enyo!"
Enyo charges up a blast, "ERASURE!" From out of Enyo's palms, a large green blast shoots out. The absolute gets sent flying.
Ryoko, surprised at the similarity of their abilities, copies Leon's idea and pulls the absolute towards him as well, as he takes out his blade, cutting down the absolute. Ryoko lands on the building before approaching them,
"Who are you guys?" Ryoko asks.
"I'm Enyo, this is Leon. I can create and manipulate energy to a certain extent, Leon here can copy powers." Enyo says.
"No wonder your ability looked like mines." Ryoko says.
"I get that a lot." Leon says.
*In the distance, a figure with green hair seems to watch the three of them. The green figure readies their scythe.*

SETTING: AFTERNOON, WEATHER IS SNOWY, ASURGENCE.
-The final point of view for this chapter.-
We're in a new dimension for this point of view. It's called the asurgence.. This is the area where absolutes roam free. The only way in and out is through a portal. There are three zones in the asurgence. We zoom in on the third one, which lies in the middle of the dimension.
In the middle of the zone is a castle with tons of different rooms. This castle is different, though; the rooms constantly change. You could be in a kitchen, but if you step out, there's a chance you would end up in a ballroom.
A man lies on a throne, holding a skull. Throwing it against the wall, the skull shatters. This creature, all he wants is power. He wants nothing else but power, and he would not hesitate to make the world burn. He is pure evil reincarnated. A dark, ominous aura surrounds him. The aura takes the shape of a clock, colored white and black.
The creature stands up and disappears.
And in a different part of the Asurgence, a man with white hair escapes by using a portal that's been sealed away from the public.
