"Thanks. Now let's get down to business, shall we?" Jade smirked as she leaned forward, resting her arms in her knees with her hands interlocked in front of her.

"So what you're saying is that there's a challenge that I could easily die in, but I get to kill people in the process? I'm in!" Trevor laughed lightly after he finished, showing a little insanity. Jade shook her head at his excitement.
"So when is this?" Trevor continued as he leaned back into his chair. Jade sighed as she did the same, "Next weekend at 7 in the morning." Trevor sighed and nodded his head.
"Can I just stay here until then possibly?" He asked, a hopeful glint in his eyes. "it would most likely be with the other recruits if you don't mind," Jade added smiling and nodding her head, "but of course! You know the way around the house, you should be able to find a spare room."
Trevor smiled and got up and walked down the hall. As he left, Easton walked into the room, a scowl implanted on his face. "What the hell is your problem?" Jade asked as she gave Easton a glare. "He's my problem." Easton pointed at Trevor, who was exiting the room. Jade rolled her eyes at Easton's childish behavior.
"Deal with it. You're stuck here, anyways, traitor." Jade spat. Easton scoffed as he continued to make his way to the kitchen.
Jade sighed and picked up her phone, shooting seven people texts, asking if they could come over to talk. A few minutes later all of them agreed to come.
The first to enter the house was Haven Iris. Dressed in a tan leather jacket, light skinny jeans and combat boots, she strolled in. Her straight, brown hair that had a reddish tint hiding in it, cascading down her back and her piercing blue eyes searched the home. The house wasn't unfamiliar to Haven, seeing as though she was a part of the Crimson Ghosts. She is the type of person who never seems to take things seriously on the outside, but the inside she does.
The next who entered was Braylon Damaris. He was the only one who knocked on the door, showing his respect for someone's home. He was a built man, but a mysterious one, barely ever talked and always wore a white hoodie along with dark jeans. He had longer, bleach blonde hair that cascaded into his eyes and dark brown eyes. He was man who was loyal to us, so he could be a big help in this challenge.
Soon after Braylon's arrival, Wesley Tiberius entered. His style was a pair of Nike shoes, athletic sweatpants, and a skin tight black shirt. His usual dark brown hair was hid by a light grey beanie that matched his eyes. Wesley was an outgoing guy, always helpful towards everyone but he had a nasty temper. With that, his head sometimes doesn't seen to be in the right place.
The next four people came in were all men from the Crimson Ghosts. Each dressed in a leather jacket and blue jeans, these people were fearless individuals who wouldn't saw no for an answer. Jade then explained to the people in the room what is happening and that she needed them, all of them said yes.
Once the scenario was explained a bit Trevor walked into the room, and Haven glared at him. "Oh, Trevor I see you're out of jail. It must of been hard sitting in that cell for ten years just because you broke that poor guy's skull. How did you do it again? Didn't you just hit him with a baseball bat or knock him into the cement?" Haven teased as she sat on the arm rest of the chair, swirling a knife around her hand. Trevor stood up, towering over Haven's petite form.
"No, I used my hands. Just my hands. That little asshole deserved it anyways, raping that girl, so I just grabbed his head, like this," He paused, putting both of his hands around Haven's head, "And squeezed. It didn't take much but it was funny when the cops came. In the end the girl was safe, the man was dead for his sin, and I was in jail for trying to save someone." He laughed, releasing his hands from Haven's head and sat back down on the couch. Haven sat there, seemingly uninterested but in reality she sat there in amazement.
Easton strolled into the room, glancing at everyone before settling his gaze on to Trevor, giving him a hard glare. Trevor noticed this and stood up, walking over to Easton. "Do you have a problem with man?" Trevor spat as he stared at Easton with out letting go of it.
"Yes I do, actually." Easton spat back, glaring hard at Trevor. "Well spit it out then." Trevor continued, chuckling, not breaking eye contact with Easton.
"You are the problem. I see how you look at Jade. I see how you act around her. I see everything, I see how Jade looks at you. You need to stay the fuck away from her." Easton whispered, harshly. Trevor rolled his eyes.
"Bullshit, tell me the real reason." Trevor pushed, spotting his blatant lie.
"The real reason, oh you want that. Well the real reason is that you fucking killed my brother! The one that you were sent to prison for, yes the one who had his skull crushed by a man. That was my fucking brother and I hate you for killing him! You lucky I don't kill you" Trevor released his grip, backing away slowly. Easton stepped towards Trevor, squaring up.
"Your brother deserved his fate, he raped that poor girl. He did the wrong thing at the wrong time!" Trevor tried his best to stay calm.
The group stood in utter silence, watching the escalating argument. Easton suddenly made a move, jumping onto Trevor's back and wrapping his arm around his neck, choking him. Trevor easily grabbed Easton and threw him onto the ground. Easton coughed but stood back up, his eyes changing from the icy blue to a deep red. Trevor noticed this and was confused, until he saw Easton's fangs elongate showing a more deathly look to him. Trevor then took a step back in shock but he didn't have time to take that in because within the same few seconds, Easton lunged at Trevor, tackling him on the ground with a lot of force.
Easton began to try and bite Trevor, but was unsuccessful, Easton was only able to wound Trevor with his longer nails. Easton's attack only made Trevor more confused and angry than he was. Trevor then kicked Easton off of him, making him fly and tumble on the ground multiple feet away. As Easton got up, he realized that Trevor was already standing. Easton gazed up into his eyes only to find that Trevor's eyes were glowing yellow and his skin was turning to a deep green.
With Easton stepping back observing Trevor's changing appearance. Trevor then looked at his changing skin, and began to hesitate for a few seconds, only to get overridden. Trevor feverishly walked towards Easton, Trevor's skin more prominent than before. Easton then realized what his skin was, it was reptile like. Trevor grabbed Easton's neck, lifting him in the air as Easton gasped for air.
Jade stood up and ran towards Trevor, grabbing his arm that was holding Easton up. "Trevor stop." Jade yelled, but Trevor only stared at Easton, so much hatred was held in his eyes. Trevor almost looked like a dragon but without the wings or four legs, he still remained on two. His scales were reptilian skin and the face was like an angry alligator with sharp eyes, and a growing snout that carried growing teeth, and a larger mouth then before.
Jade then tackled Trevor to the floor with a lot of strength, even though he was almost fully transformed into a reptile. By the looks of it, he was now a lot bigger then he was before, Trevor almost stood two feet taller and much bigger then Jade did, but that didn't scare her. Jade's force caused Trevor to let go of Easton, forcing Easton to fall onto the ground, unconscious, but now Trevor's gaze was on Jade. His piercing yellow eyes gazed into Jade's now violet eyes. Jade let out a growl, one that was too animalistic for a human to do. As Jade held Trevor down, her hands on his shoulders while she was on her knees, her hands became dark black paws, nails became claws, and her teeth became longer and sharper showing her fierce new form.
After Jade looked into Trevor's eyes, Trevor broke free of Jade's grasp, but by then he seemed calmer. "Holy shit." Trevor voice was distorted with a roar, slowly changing back to a human and not fully forming into a beast. Though, he was naked, an effect of his transformation. Jade stood over him, unaware of her eyes changing or her slowly changing until he said those two words. She shook her head before standing up, everything going back to normal within seconds. Before they moved on, they put on the torn or out fitted clothes to the best of their ability.
"What the hell are you?" Trevor asked, standing up, shocked. Jade rolled her eyes, playfully, "I could be asking you the same thing." She remarked before sitting on the couch, and putting the rest of her clothes on. Braylon Demaris scooted farther away from everyone, covering more of his face with his hood while Wesley and Trevor shared a look. "I asked you first," Trevor said as he nodded towards Wesley.
Jade sighed, looking at Haven to see her nod in approval. "I'm a werewolf. Every one in the clan is one. Now answer me, what are you?" Jade moved on with her statement. Trevor sighed then scratched the back of his neck, shocked to find out something he would of never thought of.
"We," He paused, pointing at Wesley and himself, "Are the hideous Reptilian Humanoids, or mutated reptiles, whatever floats your boat. We are in a clan called The Reptilian Brotherhood, another clan of supernatural beings. I guess we aren't the only ones out there." Trevor explained while everyone else nodded still shocked by the whole altercation.
"So let's get this straight," Haven piped in calmly, "The Crimson Ghosts are werewolves, The Reptilian Brotherhood are mutated reptiles and The Scarlet Undead Clan are vampires. Anyone else want to confess that they are some kind of supernatural?" She looked around, seeing that no one moved or said anything.
"Okay good." She ended before everyone sat down and talked, moving on from the new supernatural discoveries.

Jinx had four of her clan members already sitting on her couch, while she was waiting for the five others to come in.
Jinx Hendrix had recently dyed her hair a maroon red, that matched her leather jacket while she wore dark skinny jeans and converse. "Fucking hell, where are they?" She muttered, getting more impatient by the minute. The people that she invited are long time friends of hers that she feels is needed to win and dominate the challenge.
A few minutes later, the door was opened by a male with longer, white hair that reached his eyes. He was young and built but gave off a mysterious vibe. Logan Talon stood there, gazing at Jinx as she sat there, not noticing his arrival. Logan was wearing a brown hoodie and dark washed jeans, with a pair of Nike shoes. His green eyes scanned the room a few times before he sat down on the couch, away from Jinx.
After Logan, a girl with long, dark blue hair walked in, sitting next to Jinx and lightly punching her arm. Jinx and Ashley Stone were best friends, especially since Ashley was in the Scarlet Undead Clan. Ashley was a rocker, wearing a Nirvana cut off shirt and ripped black jeans, along with pitch black converse. Her dark brown eyes seemed to fit her dark personality, pretty well.
After Ashley, Ray Arlo stepped into the room. His light blue tank top had the words, "Live or don't Live" printed on it while he wore a pair of athletic shorts and shoes. His light blue eyes had hints of grey in them as he looked at Jinx who was engrossed in a conversation with Ashley. He shrugged before heading to the kitchen.
The next who entered was Carter Ivory. He was wearing his usual white hoodie with it covering his deep brown eyes and pitch black hair. He is quiet, everything he does is quiet, so when he walked into the house, no one noticed his arrival. So he sat on the couch away from everyone in the corner of the room, hes a person of honesty, but not talkitivity.
Damien Rhine was the last to enter. His face hidden as he walked. He wore a black beanie that covered his bleach blonde hair and a plain white t-shirt. His regular blue jeans covered his pitch black cowboy boots. As Damien entered, everyone looked at him because of all the noise he made, he was heavily built and the clacking of the boots didn't help.
Once everyone was settled, Jinx went over the details of the challenge. Everyone listened closely until the end where they all agreed to participate. Jinx then told them that they were allowed to stay at her house until the weekend of the fight, which everyone was happy about so they didn't have to go back and forth. After the plan was given they went straight to the preparing of the challenge.
Both teams had to make up battle strategies before they could participate, leading to the teams practicing everyday and conditioning for it throughout the day. This lasted until the day before Saturday, the day of the challenge.
