One hundred and forty nine years. That's how long it's been. That's how long it's been since the world has seen the original five. Five people that the Factions were named after. Five people that fought and worked hard to build the city of Chicago up from the ruins it was, to the great city it is now. Five people, that are ready to wake up....

Jeanine Matthews sat in front of her computer like everyday. Everyday the same thing. Type up this, e-mail that. She was use to it, it had become a pattern. She had starred into the same computer screen everyday, in the same room everyday. It never changed. So when a little blue light started blinking on one of the panels of her walls, it didn't take long for her to notice. Being the perfect Erudite she was, the overwhelming feeling of not knowing something was to much for her to bear.

Quickly standing from her desk she straightened her jackets and patted down the wrinkles that had formed in her skirt. After pushing her chair in, she walked over to the wall, her eyebrows furrowed in confusing. Gently lifting her hand she placed it on the cold white tile that had the small blue light blinking at her. The second her hand touched the cold one foot by one foot tile the whole cube started to glow.

Surprised, Jeanine, quickly stepped back, her hand clutched against her chest. The cubed tile on the wall slowly started to push out, until it was about a foot out. Curious, Jeanine walker over the the side of the now pushed out cube. Inside was a medium sized black box. A light dust had settled on it making it look slightly grey in the bright light of the room.

She reached her hand in and slowly, unsurely and very cautiously, pulled the box out. When nothing happened she backed away from the wall, looking down at the black box she now held. When she got a few feet away the cube tile slowly slide back into the wall. Sitting back down at her desk, she took a pure white handkerchief and lightly brushed the dust off the box.

Contemplating her options, Jeanine lifted the lid to the box. Yet again her pristine eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Inside was a disk, silver and round. Lifting the disk out she turned it over in her hands, as if the object was foreign. She pressed the button on her computer that open a disk tray and placed the disk on it. After pushing the button again the tray retreated back into the computer. A few seconds later a video played popped up on the screen.

The first few seconds of the video was staticy and fuzzy. The sound was that of something russeling around and the image kept moving around. Then she heard it, a voice that hadn't been heard in almost a hundred and fifty years. " What the hell?! Oh my god,...this is infuriating...How do I...Ah ha!!! Got it!" Jeanine was suddenly looking into the almost clear blue eyes of a young girl, around the age of twenty two. Her long black hair was held in two long pigtails, her bangs going straight across her forehead with two long pieces of bright red hair hanging down in front of her ears. She wore a tight black leather jacket with a tight black tank top underneath it. On her face was a bright smile, one of happiness and satisfaction. Jeanine continued to stare at the screen in awe as the girl spoke again.

" Well!! Hello there people of the future!! Or who ever has found this.... My name is Rayne, or hopefully as you people might know of now a days, Rayne Dauntless. I am the founder of the Faction Dauntless. I created this Faction because I thought that all the people who destroyed this once peaceful and beautiful world were cowards. I thought that they were weak to just blow each other up without ever trying talk or to actually fix anything first. But!! That was a long time ago. Now, if what me and the other original four has set up in the city of Chicago is still up and running smoothly then it is about the be the one hundred and 50th anniversary of the day we sealed off the city and began our new lives here. Hooray!! Good job on staying alive! Thumbs up. So getting to the point of why you are watching this, I have some good news and some bad news! Which do you want first? ...............Bad? Okay!! So back in our days, there was another Faction. They called themselves, Calypso. Now hopefully you guys haven't run into them or even heard of them! If ya haven't let me tell you a little story...."
