The wind blew through the dark and silent streets that surrounded the Old Museum, sending the fallen leaves around it rustling. The night sky above was dark and silent, as if holding its breath for the coming storm.
The Old Museum stood, unaware that the storm was already on its doorstep.
Yuri stood outside the old building, her eyes locked on the tower that stood attached to it like a soldier's pike. Beside her was Fiona, Charlie and Luna, known collectively as the A X E girls. They were also the only ones who stood by her after the coup. Yes, it was because of the blood oath they had together but she'll take all the help she could get.
"Are you ready, girls?" Yuri asked, looking at her Subjects from the corner of her eyes.
"We've always been ready." Fiona gave a curt nod.
"Cover it." Yuri commanded.
As one, the A X E girls waved their hand, deploying the most important piece of the night.
