The Guardians of earth

Prologue

We see a small hall. It is emitting light from the left and darkness from the
right. The walls are silver coloured but not in paint, but in pure silver. The
room has an uneasy tingle to it. If you would enter it you would feel both
terrified and at peace at the same time. The room is like a circle, at the walls
there are seven big things that look like caskets. They are also out of silver
and above them on the walls are inscriptions inscribed in the wall, it looks
like some kind of ancient English/Arabic/Japanese text. In the middle of each
text there is a small picture.

Each one of the pictures are different. The middle of the floor has a spiral
drawn into it from each of the caskets. Two figures stand in the middle of the
odd looking room. Both of them are wearing robes that cover their entire bodies.
Both of the figures also wield odd looking staffs, the staffs are long and have
a circle at the tip with a picture carved in it. The figures stand side by side,
the one on the left has a complete white coloured robe, and his staff has a sun
carved into it's circle. The figure on the right is wearing sheer black robes,
and his staff has a crescent moon carved into its circle. The white clothed
figure was emitting what looked like sheer white light, like an aura. While the
black clothed figure was emitting sheer black darkness, also like an aura.

The two figures stood, and appeared to be chanting something. As time passed
they chanted louder and louder, one at a time saying words in different human
languages. The words started at a whisper, then later became normal speech,
after that they turned into shouts. Then they stopped, just stopped... they
stopped chanting and shouting, they stopped moving, they didn't even breathe.
Then all of sudden they both started shouting as one in an understandable human
tongue.

"The Darkness has risen once again, the thirteen generals of Hell have once
again been reborn, raised and trained with only one objective. The destruction
of the universe." They weren't shouting nor speaking, but their voice could be
heard a long way. "We, the Masters of Light and Darkness ask once again the help
of the Guardians. The help of the Guardians of earth. They must once again rise
and defeat this threat. A threat that last appeared 2500 years ago has once
again been reborn. The blood of the former Guardians of earth still flows
through the veins of their heirs and families. Seven people must be chosen,
seven people that have the ability, the will and the spirit to defeat the 13
Dark Lords. These seven people we swear to protect and guide until they are
ready." The figures lifted the staffs in the air and kept talking "We ask the
seven elements of earth to give them their power." The two figures started
glowing brighter, and the inside of the caskets started glowing as well but in
different colours each.

Then the two started to speak once again. "The power of eternal flame, Fire" The
casket that glowed red started spouting fire out of it. "The waves of the sea,
Water" The casket that glowed blue filled up with water like a bathtub. "The
storms of light, Lightning" The casket that glowed yellow started to radiate
bolts of lightning. "The tsunamis of air, Wind" Small hurricanes started to pick
up at the casket that glowed grey. "Quakes of the mountains, Earth" The casket
that glowed brown started to shake and a boulder appeared in it. "The blades of
the past and future, Metal" All sorts of blades materialized in the casket that
glowed sliver. "And the trees of the forest, Wood" Trees and flowers growed
extremely fast at the casket that glowed green. "These elements shall protect
the earth as they have done before. Find thy successors and draw them together."

The light around each casket started to materialize into a ball. "Find the guardians
where ever they might be. Their age does not matter, but they must be found." The
balls of energy and light started float higher and higher until they stopped.
"Go now, and find the ones. Find the Guardians of earth!" The balls of energy
and light started to disappear, one by one in the order that they were spoken.
When all of the balls disappeared the room was once again without the exciting
light that they radiated. The two figures spoke one thing each before they left.
The Master of Darkness said his words. "It has begun sister." And the Master of
Light responded "Indeed it has brother, indeed if has."
