The twin mirror room was silent, aside from the unsettling siren muffled by the thick walls. Espiyan concealed himself deep in the shadows. Approaching footsteps could be heard from the corridor just outside the room. The footsteps stopped. The door slowly opened and a mature looking teenager entered the room. From his appearance, Espiyan decided that this was Sion. Although he could only see one person, Espiyan could feel the presence of three. Sion had made his way and stopped directly between the two mirrors. Sion looked as though he was talking to himself and that's when they could be seen, the two mystery presences, one in each mirror.
Espiyan slowly crept closer to hear what they were saying. "...I'm still left in between." Sion concluded and wandered back out of the room. The two reflections lingered in their mirrors. The light reflection looked at the dark reflection, then walked out of the view of the mirror. The dark reflection looked over to the shadowed end of the room. Espiyan sunk deeper into the shadows, trying to avoid being seen. The reflection stood there, gave a slight smirk, then disappeared.
Espiyan waited in the room for a moment, then when he thought it was safe, stepped out into the light. He revealed his face which was hidden under a hood and scarf. He was young with strong, defined feautures, rather tall and reasonably muscular. He had long, spikey brown hair, with a spikey fringe hanging infront of his mysterious, dark, turquoise eyes. A long cloak was wrapped around his body. In a holster on his back hung a long-handled blade which was skillfully crafted by himself. The young man also carried a ractangular pack with one long strap wrapped twice around he waist.
With a pleased smirk, the young man made a slight gesture with his hand, and then a strange mist of ambiance, not light nor dark, completely surrounded Espiyan, growing thicker, consuming his entire body, then evapourating, leaving the room empty.
The same strange ambiance began appearing on the roof of a building in the centre of town. Espiyan stepped out of the mist and stood on the edge of the roof, peering down to see whom he pursued. He watched as Sion was confronted by three men, and winning the battle. At the conclusion of the battle, Espiyan was about to leap off the building but stopped just in time as he saw a feminine figure approaching Sion. He was expecting Sion to leave but this woman delayed his departure. Espiyan waited a little while longer until he watched them make their way to the source of the siren.
At this, he finally jumped off the building. Just before hitting the hard ground, he performed a backflip to make his landing less of an impact. Check that the street was empty, Espiyan swiftly made his way to the three bodies on the ground. They were all knocked out. He leant over one of the prisoners and placed an open hand above their chest. A dark misty aura began pouring out of the man's body, forming a small bluish-black spear in Espiyan's palm. He repeated this to the other two prisoners until he held three dark orbs in his hand.
He placed them in his pack and made his way to the nearest building. He swiftly climbed up to the roof and began leaping from building to building, in the direction he saw Sion and the woman go.
