- Platform Sector 7 -
"HELP! I CAN'T STOP THE TRAIN!" The screaming voice yells through the dark laboratory. The large 40-inch HD-screen showing the radius of the area.
"Boss, we are getting signals of a monster on the train." Eric lifts his glasses with his hand as he plays with his game console. "Should we go?". He asked in a careless manner.
Behind his back, there sits a young man dressed in a black blazer covering his white dress shirt. With black striped ties hanging on his neck matching his casual pants.
He lifts himself up and walks over to the enormous screen showing a field of the radiuses. He sighs.
"Unstoppable train, monster, and passengers. Looks like a power outage from the demon." His tone acted if this was his regular everyday job.
"Boss do we go?" Sarah chews on her gum as she cleans her katana with a cloth.
"Kill the monster, save the passengers, and please try not to destroy the train. Sector 7 go." His cold voice chills the temperature down. The door of the moving platform slides open as Eric and Sarah jumps out to the air.
"Kiva, we don't have the money to pay for that train!" Hana spoked in an exhausted tone.
Kiva sighs again, "I will go check on them, monitor us." Kiva jumps out of the flying platform and drops from the sky.

"Little missy, I was looking for you" A nasty voice speaks as he throws his tongue out. The red lizard man lunges his claws against Alice. "Give it to me!".
White feathers surrounding Alice, protecting her against the rapid speed of attacks. Alice retreats, step by step, looking for an opening. "What is it that you want?" Alice asked in a gentle tone.

The claws increased its speed as his eyes turning bloody red. "The stone… give it…" His nasty voice deepens, becoming cold as ice.
Alice leaps back. – Command : Attack –
White feathers threw themselves against the lizardman, piercing through his body. Dark red blood bleeding, dropping down from his skin. The lizardman falls on the train platform, laying on his body.
Alice sighs, "Weakling shouldn't talk too much." She runs past the half-dead lizardman and checks on the passengers.
"Are you alright?" Alice reaches her hand out pulling the fallen lady up. The sound of claws scratching made Alice turn her head.
"The Berserker Rune!". The red lizard crawl himself up, he let out a scream forcing Alice to cover her ears. His body expanded into a muscular form and his height raising to 7 feet 3. He spilt out black blood onto the ground as he massaged his neck with his right hand.
White feathers attacked the red lizardman. Alice expression changes as the feathers were defected and knocked away.
"Hahaha! Missy, get ready." His nasty voices frighten the passengers. He steps and launches himself at Alice, claws ripping off the sleeve of her top. Small amounts of blood dripped from the wound,
"He's fast" Alice reacted to his speed, barely dodging the strike.
– Command: Protect – Feathers surrounds Alice, protecting her against the claws.
"Annoying, is that all you can do?" The claws become faster and the impact increased as Alice is forced back against the monster.
"Well, that's enough, let's end this." The red lizardman stopped attacking. "We lizardman has the ability to enhance our bodies and you have something that we want, I can smell it" – Metallic Claws –
His claws expanded into metal sharp blades and penetrated through the defensive feathers as he pounced himself forward. His sharp claws reached and scratch Alice's silver hair then strikes again with his other hand targeting her neck.

Alice panicked, although she has Athena's will and some of her memories, but herself never had much fighting experience. She raced through her mind, but in that split moment, to her knowledge, nothing would have worked.
As the sharp steel coming close to her neck, almost in contact and about to behead her. A massive amount of heat approaches them, a burning red aura of flames cuts the train apart along with the arm of the lizardman, causing a pressure that blew them into the air.
– Crescent Nova – A female's voice was heard.
There stands a young girl wearing a uniform with a mini-skirt under the bright sunlight. Pointing her katana to the one arm lizardman. "Ohhh, a demi-human." She stares into the lizard's eye, revealed the mark on the katana. "You are under arrest, so we either do this the hard way, or I will just kill you." Her childish tone felt like a death sentence to Alice and the monster.
"Guardians". The red lizard voice shatters and breaks down as he starts to crawl away from this girl.

Champions of the Boundary
In reality, there exists a realm between reality and fantasy, where all maner of magical creatures exist, and the warriors summoned as they died in reality fight against the forces of a powerful being known only as the Shadow of Life. Here, they live in a world with experience and Levels, Classes and Skills, and they fight against monsters, training for years just to achieve a Level that can allow them to make a small difference. Yet even with this training, it is not enough. The Crystal Adventurers are forced to retreat further and further every year as the Shadow of Life's monsters grow stronger and more numerous, destroying cities at an increasing rate. If the city of Maelnor falls, then it will be less than a year before nearly all of the Crystal Adventurers are wiped out, both those brought to the realm upon death, and those born and raised there. Legends tell of a prophecy that describes a team led by the legendary child of the prophecy, a child whose destiny is not to end the Shadow of Life, but to act as a harbinger, one whose very existence will turn the tides of war, one who must meet three seemingly impossible or currently unheard of criteria before the tides truly change. This is the tale of Team Noruva, which consists of a quiet, yet wise healer, a silent, but thoughtful rogue, a knight with an iron will, a wolf beastborn who gained access to the System, and their leader, who ignores the impossible and does whatever he wants, because why the hell not? This is the tale of their adventures and daily lives, their ups and downs, their struggles, successes, and losses. **REGARDING PoV'S*** There will be 5 total PoV's in this story. However, four of them will take several dozen chapters (beginning Chapter 73) to start happening, with the first two "Books" focusing just on Zack, which is why there's the Multiple PoV's tag on here, even though only one's around at first.
