Arcane Exorcist

Yin and Yang, Order and Disorder, Life and Death, The Universal Equation of Balance. My world was once in Balance, until it came, The Arcane Drift. A massive flare of Mana flowed through Earth, giving birth to The Arcane Prime, soul like entities formed from pure Arcane energy. Humanity was devastated, as half of earth's population were wiped out due to Mana toxicity. The Half left behind were soon preyed on by The Prime's. We couldn't defend ourselves, as Humanity brought down to it's knees. Decades Later, we had a breakthrough. Humans, who were once preys, instantly became predators. The Hunted became the Hunter. Despite the fact we couldn't wield Arcane, we found other means to defend ourselves. By drawing power from Yin Yang Force Factor, Humans finally had the upper hand, as they went into all out war against The Primes.

Bad news

"Taejin Original: Mutila….!" Taejin said as he felt something pierce him through his chest.

"That's enough!" Dragshik said, suddenly appearing behind Taejin, with his hand through Taejin's chest.

"H…. How!" Taejin stuttered, coughing up a large amount of blood.

"You're done!" Dragshik stoically exclaimed, moving his hand further through Taejin's body, causing the human extreme pain.

"Shit…. Even if I die, at least…. I have to exorcise this…..! Taejin thought to himself as choked on his own blood.

Dragshik brutally yanked out his hand from Taejin's body, in the process, ripping out Taejin's internal organs, spewing a massive torn of blood. This process immediately wasted Taejin as his body collapsed heavily on the ground, decorating it with a crimson pool of blood.

"Come on Regal, heal up and let's get going!" Dragshik promptly exclaimed, awaking Regal.

"Alright Mate!" Regal said, stretching his body which was slowly regenerating.

"Damnit, that bastard really roughed me up!" Regal complained, walking towards his partner.

"Yes he did, but he was nowhere as strong as the people we're looking for" Dragshik answered, wiping off Taejin's blood from his hand.

"Are those guys really strong?" Regal curiously inquired.

"Yes…. According to Master Dormene, if you were to fight them, you won't survive even if you're at full power" Dragshik grunted his reply, viciously waving his hand in air, conjuring a claw shaped portal.

"That's insane!" Regal said as they walked through Dragshik's newly conjured portal.

Few Minutes Later,

Reclaimed Sector 2,

Taejin's previous battle site.

Three youth's dressed in Black suit jackets and trousers were seen alighting a Black colored SUV. These three were obviously Adam, Cassie and Drake.

After scouting the parameter, they stumbled on James' and Taejin's dead body. Seeing the gore, Cassie couldn't help but throw up while Adam gritted his teeth's in anger.

"What the fuck happened here?" Drake frightfully inquired.

"F…. Fu… Fuc!" Cassie said as she continued to puke up her guts.

"Tae…. Jin!" Adam stuttered, immediately getting lost in his thoughts.

"We've got to help 'em!" Drake said, carrying Taejin's dead body into the SUV.

"Drake is right!" Adam said, trying to pull himself together.

"Would you cut that out Cassie?" Adam commented in his usual stoic manner.

"I'm sorry!" Cassie hurriedly apologized, walking towards James decapitated body.

"What do you think did this?" She promptly inquired.

"Whatever did this, they aren't normal Primes!" Adam said, angrily clenching his fists together, sinking his fingers into his palm.

"Let's get going, we've got to report this to the Bureau!" Drake said, prompting his mates to get into the Car.

As both Cassie and Adam walked towards the SUV, Adam suddenly noticed something buried under the soil. He curiously walked towards it, trying to figure out what it was. Finally, he got the grotesque object which turned out to be Taejin's Katana. Sadly, Adam grabbed the Katana and headed back to the SUV.

Moments Later,

Bureau of Exorcism HQ,

Entrance Gate.

A group of Exorcist were seen at the Gate, currently about to enter a luxurious car. The Group were actually the Higher ups; Jade, Skrull, Naomi and Jackson.

Before they could actually drive out of the building, their car was accosted by Adam's SUV. Seeing the incoming SUV, the entire group alighted their car, heading over to Adam's.

"Thank goodness, it's the Executives!" Drake said, alighting his car, heading straight at the Incoming Executives.

"Drake, are you and your Squad mates alright?" Naomi curiously inquired.

"Yes Ma'am but Taejin's Squad isn't!" Drake respectfully replied.

"What happened?" Skrull inquired, walking towards the SUV.

"I don't really know, by the time we got there, Taejin and James were already dead" Drake subtly said.

"We couldn't find Scott!" Adam suddenly exclaimed, waltzing out of the SUV.

"Don't worry Scott's with us. He's inside the building and he has a lot to tell!" Jackson said, wearing a furious smile.

"The first thing you need to know is, Those things that killed Taejin and James were Colossal Primes!" Skrull sinisterly commented.

Meanwhile,

Abandoned Warehouse.

Xavier was seen lecturing four teenage individuals, obviously Jeremy and his new squad mates.

"Hold up, I've got a question for all of you!" Jeremy suddenly exclaimed, grabbing everyone's attention.

"What is it?" Xavier inquired.

" I just wanted to know what kind of Energy do you guys use?" Jeremy replied, staring earnestly at his teammates.

"They're all Positive Energy user!" Xavier promptly answered.

"Whoa… So what are your Augmented Abilities?" Jeremy inquired with his interest piqued.

"Mine is Cosmic Fire Manipulation!" Jason immediately replied.

"Neat!" Jeremy commented, proudly shaking his head.

"I have no idea what that is!" He thought to himself.

"Mine is Ambient Energy Manipulation!" Yongje said with an expression similar to that of Adam's.

"Nice!" Jeremy responded with an awkward smile.

"You have no idea what that is?" Yongje commented seeing Jeremy's awkward facial expression.

"You're right!" Jeremy promptly replied.

"Idiot!" Yongje thought to himself, shaking his head in disappointment.

"Basically, my Augmented Ability, allows me to harness, channel or absorb the power of surrounding energy!" He immediately explained.

"I think I get it!" Jeremy said, scratching his head, obviously trying to process the information he just received.

"What about yours Stella?" He curiously inquired, staring at the nerdy looking girl.

"My…. My…My Augmented ability is…. Light Manipulation!" Stella stuttered, trying not to make eye contact with the shirtless youth in front of her.

"Whoa, Light Manipulation… Your brother manipulates Darkness, you manipulate Light. Talk about Family!" Jeremy said obviously surprised.

"What about you?" Yongje inquired, glaring at the awkward youth in front of him.

"He's actually an Abstract!" Xavier suddenly exclaimed, breaking his streak of silence.

"Really!" Jason inquired.

"Yeah and I can't really manipulate My Negative Energy….. that's why I rely on this!" Jeremy promptly responded, waving his Exorcise tool.

"Wow!" Jason blurted in surprise.

"That thing looks an A-Grade Exorcise or higher!" Yongje exclaimed in shock.

"That's because it is. It's an Special grade Exorcise tool and I gave it to him!" Xavier answered the troubled youth.

"By the way, Tomorrow which is Saturday, you four are going on your first mission together!" Xavier excitedly added.

"Are you coming along with us?" Jeremy inquired, staring at Xavier.

"Nope… I have a date tomorrow, which I'm supposed to be getting ready for!" Xavier said, stealing a glance at his smart watch.

"See you guys later!" He added, immediately vanishing from the scene.

He immediately reappeared right in front of Elena's office. Without any form of notice, Xavier walked in, trying to surprise Elena. Inside the office, Xavier who was trying to surprise his fiancée, was actually the one who was surprised. He was greeted by a gloomy atmosphere.

Inside Elena's office were the entire board of Executive, Adam and his squad mates, last but not least, Scott, the only surviving member of Taejin's squad.

"What happened here?" Xavier curiously inquired.

"James and Taejin are dead!" Elena replied, staring at Xavier.

"No…. What….. I… How?" Xavier stuttered as his temper slowly increased.

"What killed them?" Xavier angrily asked.

"They were killed by Colossal Grade Primes!" Elena sadly replied, burying her face into her desk.

"Colossal Primes aye!" Xavier stoically replied, shifting his attention to Scott who was currently shivering in disbelief.

"Scott, tell me everything!" Xavier promptly added.

Immediately, Scott alongside with Elena, gave Xavier a detailed description of the incident that had just occurred.

"So they've evolved and are going by the name, New Humans!" Xavier said to himself, stroking his chin, obviously boiling with rage.

As the discussion went, Adam who was clearly sulking, suddenly stood up, slowly exiting the room.

"Where are you going?" Cassie inquired, staring a deeply saddened Adam.

"The Autopsy room!" Adam reluctantly replied, exiting the room via his shadow.

"What about his little brother, Yongje?" Naomi inquired.

"Should we tell him?" Cassie commented, staring at everyone for answers, which no one seemed to have.

"There's no need. News spreads like wildfire around here, I'm sure he knows by now!" Xavier replied still stroking his chin.

"Can everyone excuse me… I have to think about this!" Elena politely requested, ruffling her hair on confusion.

Immediately, everyone in the room including, Xavier, quietly exited the room. Seeing this, Elena buries her face into her desk, obviously trying to think of a plan to handle the present dilemma.

"Xavier, I know you're still there!" She exclaimed, prompting Xavier's entrance.

"Xavier…. I don't know what to do!" She added, almost tearing up.

Meanwhile,

Autopsy room,

Medical Department.

Adam was seen in sulking in a room. Inside the room was filled with several sophisticated and plain medical tools and equipment. Also, a classic hospital bed was seen in the room and on the bed was Taejin's dead body. Apparently, it was still on under close monitoring and testing.

"You bastard, why the hell did you have to die!" Adam thought to himself, staring at Taejin's body.

"Did you forget the fuckin promise we made. We were supposed to get stronger, so we can whoop Xavier's ass once and for all!" Adam added.

"You asshole!" He violently exclaimed.

Unannounced, Yongje angrily stomped into the room. He was immediately greeted by Adam's intense bloodlust alongside his brother's dead body.

"What happened to my brother!"
