It's the weekend once again and it's a calm morning in the neighborhood. Today is a special day, it's Francis' birthday today! His parents wanted to give him something special so for the past few days, his parents want to give him want he always wanted. Francis has been reading the book "Furroko: Land of Division" and learning a lot of things about this parallel world. He woke up early and started continuing his book.
"Who is it?" Francis asked as he heard a knock on his door.
"It's us, Francis." Finn said, Francis telling them to come in.
"Good morning Dear." Lily said happily, opening the door.
"Happy Birthday my boy!" Finn said coming inside and bringing a present.
"Thank you!" Francis said getting the present.
Francis opened the box and saw a lab coat and an old book. He took the lab coat and saw that it was burned at the bottom hem and the sleeve is ripped. He then took the book and opened it. Inside was a lot of notes, scribbles, and more. Finn explained that what he gave to his son are his, and the book is from his mother, who records a lot of things when she was working.
"There's still something we want to show you, and we invited your friends over." Lily said happily.
"Oh, alright. I'll get ready. Thanks for the presents Mom and Dad!" Francis replied, getting up and putting the lab coat and book on his bedside table.
They had breakfast his parents got everything ready for his surprise. A few hours later, Alice, Adrion and Alistair along with their parents, came to their house. They all went to the living room and the others waited while Finn and Lily took Francis downstairs.
"So, what's the surprise?" Francis asked looking at everyone.
"We'll be going somewhere today...." Lily started.
"We're visiting Furroko today!" Finn said excitedly.
All of the Successors were surprised and excited to finally go to Furroko. Their parents let them open the portal and they all watched the portal form. The parents were ready to go back but as they were about to go, the kids weren't moving. They suddenly looked nervous as they stood frozen. Their parents comforted them and held their hand, and they went in small groups. When you go through the portal to Furroko, if you're not considered a human tribe on the other side, you will transform into one of the 3 other tribes when you passed through. When they have arrived to Furroko, the portal closed and the Crystallites went to the successors, becoming pins. The Successors were amazed by their transformations. Francis remained a human but he is capable of casting spells. He has an polo undershirt with a fitted vest that overlaps, then his father's lab coat. He's wearing some dark colored trousers and elevating shoes. Adrion turned into a demon like figure with long and tall horns, blood red eyes, wings, a long sharp tail and the ability to summon raging fires. Having a tank top underneath, he has a military like uniform with one shoulder guard. He's also wearing heavy duty boots with his pants tucked in. Alice is a mix of a demon, elf and a human, so she has silver eyes, a tail, pointed ears, wings, a dark halo and Crystal abilities. a sleeveless turtle neck with an off shoulder blazer like Adrion's, paired with a fitted skirt that reaches above her knee. There are also two straps that start from her waist going down to her thighs in different lengths, finishing it off with high boots. Finally, Alistair is an Apparition, with mist going around him as well was having ghostly abilities. He has a more prince-like appearance with a modified suit and a cape that almost reaches the floor. His shoes are the same as Francis'. All their parents are wearing the outfits they wear as if they never left Furrroko.
They all landed on the meeting room of the building that's put on the middle of the land. Their parents let their children bask in their new selves while getting ready. After a while, the parents called the Primordial Crystals and when they arrived, they were happy that they brought their successors.
"I see that you brought the young ones today." Aiden said happily.
"Well, today is a special day for Francis, so we decided to give them a chance to visit Furroko." Finn whispered to Aiden's ear.
The Primordial Crystals went near the Successors, getting their attention. They are happy to see them again and are happy to show them around.
"Young future leaders I see..." Zion said.
"Do you like your attires young ones?" Owen asked.
"We never knew we'd look like this." Adrion said.
"Agreed." The other 3 replied.
"Well, the first things we'll be showing you today, young ones...Is a tour of the different territories of Furroko." Owen said, leading them to the gates.
"Where would like to go first, young ones?" Owen asked.
"How about we go the Humans first, just to be safe." Francis suggested and the others agreed.
"Of course, let's start the tour and will the leaders join us?" Owen asked.
The parents nodded and they all started their way to the Human territory. The place for Humans are similar to what things are like in the other world, there are some modern technology, but the environment and atmosphere are like in the olden times, the humans who lived there are surprised to see both the leaders and the Primordial Crystals. A lot of them are also whispering to each other. They first showed the marketplace, full of produce and dairy. Then the Hospital or medical center. Next is the neighborhood and finally, the laboratory at the end of the territory which is near the forest. The next territory is the Hybrids, a place of mixed Human and Monster DNA. The people here bow and greet Elizabeth as "Mistress". First is the sanctuary for different plants and flora, both common and rare. Then there is a medical center. Next to it is a cave for flying Hybrids, the neighborhood and finally the big mansion at the edge where the forest is also found. Next is the Apparitions and as said in the book, the creatures are very friendly. Mainly, the place is full of mists and a ghostly atmosphere. One unique area here is a park for premature and child apparitions. The next is the medical center and a neighborhood. At the end of it and the start of the forest is where the Main Library is placed. Finally is the most dangerous place, the Monsters. For this tour, they are engulfed with a protection spell, just in case someone tries to hurt them, since they are hostile creatures. The first thing that is different is that the territory is mostly a forest. Caves are placed for the ones who prefer it and a neighborhood for those otherwise, a medical center is also there, then a big cave at the edge. At the end of the day, they went back to the building in the middle of the entire land. They had a lot of fun interacting and looking around each territory.
"That was so fun! There's so much things to see around here!" Francis said with so much excitement.
"It looks like someone had the most fun." Alice said smiling at him.
"Hehe....y-yeah..." Francis said blushing.
"It looks like the young doctor likes the Mistress' daughter." Florence whispered to Finn and Lily, making them giggle.
"And the young commander is a bit overprotective of his sister." Aiden whispered back.
"Don't worry Adri, let Francis have a bit of a moment with her." Alistair tugged his shirt.
"Alright, alright..." Adrion sighed.
After a day of going around and looking at the different tribes of Furroko, the next tour is the building where they came from. The building that is made in the middle of the land is called the Main Gate, it's called the way because it's a way for any creature to make their way to the different territories without taking the river which has hidden passageways in which only the leaders know the placements of. The Main Gate has 5 floors overall and a watchtower at the very top of the tower structure. Starting from the very top, the watchtower has a scope of the whole land from above, like a king. The floor below it, floor 5 has a massive library full of history books and other ancient relics found around Furroko. This is where the Crystallites were placed before Recognition day. The next floor below, floor 4 is the meeting room. It has a floating table along with some floating seats for the leaders. The middle of the table is an overall holographic map of Furroko, you can tap on ne area and it will close up on that area and give statuses of the people, environment, weather and more. There is also an alarm system so it's easy to know if there is a problem. The next floor below, floor 3 is the gateways to the 4 territories. These gateways have a security system installed to make sure that any trespassers are kept out. This is the biggest floor because this is serving as the base, and they built it to be very wide and big, having a lot of space that can fit a lot of creatures. Furroko has an identification system, and all citizens have a mark on their body so it's easier to classify them. Wilders will have no mark because it's removed before they are thrown out. It's easy to know if one is a Wilder or not because the mark is placed on either their cheek, forehead or neck. Not a lot of creatures go here because they are going to be meeting with their respective leaders to be granted permission to enter a different tribe. The last 2 floors are under the tower, the basement and a hidden room for weaponry. First, the basement is a room where the leaders and Primordial Crystals remove the marks from the Wilders and it's also a storage for different resources, from seeds to extra minerals. Finally, the hidden room is as the name implies, because only the leaders know this area and are forbidden from telling this information to anyone, otherwise, they'll be forced to be a Wilder. The different kinds of weaponry are here and are brought only when there is another war that is necessary such as the rebel of the Wilders.
At the end of the day, they returned to their world and left Furroko with warm greetings. They were shocked to know that they were shown a weapon's room, full of deadly things that covered with blood even though they aren't leaders yet. Nonetheless, Francis enjoyed his birthday present, and now he's excited to go back more than ever.
