"I'll name you Chroma[1], even though you don't have color, but your eyes are all the color you need to be beautiful"
The figure reach into core, take a piece of out and placing it into the hueless body's chest.
"Keep Cuasavia[2] safe while I'm away, ok Chroma?"
A figure standing over a hueless body spoke soft. They reach their hand out inviting them to take it.
"Keep it… Safe?"
The timid voice ask as she look up at the figure for the first time.
"Mhm. I trust you with a fraction of my power, so use it wisely."
The figure pats her head as everything muffled around her.

Chromas office - 7/04/2034 - 12:37 PM
"Chroma? Hey-! Are you even listening right now?!"
A child like voice snaps Chroma who was sipping from a glass of wine out of her thoughts
"Yes Teddy[3] I am listening-"
"The what was I talking about?"
Teddy interrupted, his stitched ears twitching with impatient tension.
"You were talking about how Mike[4] took your Hammer away from you, and to be fair I don't blame him. You scare me when you holding that gigantic thing, especially for how small you are…"
"You're on HIS side?!"
Teddy yelled with a hurt expression gracing is patch work of a face.
Chroma let out an exasperated sigh, before setting the wine glass and looking up at Teddy over her gold glasses
"Teddy you a humanized pink teddy bear with a comically large battle hammer. One miscalculated swing and your taking that poor man's head off. Do you want to do that to the person you care the most about?"
Teddy was silent for a beat before crossing his arm and pouting an walking out of Chromas office. Chromas sighs and picks up the glass again finishing the wine that was inside.
"What am I gonna do with that little bear? More importantly…what's taking you so long…?"
As Chroma sat straight in her seat readying herself to get back to the paperwork her phone began ringing.
"Bahhh… Leave me alone!"
She snatches the phone and answer it.
"This is Chro-"
On the other end was Kiya[5] talking fast amd probably panicking slightly.
"I see claws Chroma! They're trying to breach again!"
"The Scounters[6]?"
Chroma clarified as she got out of her seat and begin hurrying out of her office.
"Send your location, hold them back I'm on the way.

Stewler Sea - 12:58 PM
The wave of the Stewler Sea[7] tossed and toil as a rift splits the sky above as an attempt to spew it bowls into Cuasavia. At its mouth were shadows tearing into the sky helping what ever wanted to cross though.
"Why do you get more and more eldritch looking by the months?"
Kiya tighten her posture on the scythe as she used it to weaved and cut through the shadows.
"Chroma did say they were "otherworldly", can't expect them to like like us now can you?!"
Allen[8] shouted as gun shots and spell circles were casted at the perimeter of the main rift and just in time as Chroma appeared through a separate rift.
"Everyone alright? Any in-"
Chroma eyes shift up at the rift. Seeing beyond what the other two couldn't. Something words could not put to image.
"What. The. Hell."
Chroma for a most was frozen in place, to the twins it was nothing but a rift dripping it bowels, but to Chroma, it might as well been the first sign of this worlds collapse.
"U-Uhh Chroma…Snap out of it, so we can get rid of this thing."
Kiya's turn toward Chroma trying to get her out of the momentary trance.
"Uh-Right."
Chroma, still trying to to comprehend what she had just witnessed, shook her head to get back in focus, the book she brought with her opened to a familiar page and the color of the surrounding area and beings in the area begins to drain into her palms.
"Corluforia[9]!"
The Color condense into concentrated energy wearing everything including the twins and the eldritch creature.
"Begone!"
A sudden blink of an eye, the shadows were vaporized and the rips in the sky began to close without the help of them.
There was a silence of nothing but the water churning, before it finally settled.
"That's the end of that…for now at least."
Chroma sighed turning toward the twins making sure they were as alright as they can be after the situation.
"Do either of you need to visit the therapist?"
Kiya looked shaken.
"Maybe…"
Allen limped over to where Kiya and Chroma stood, wiping sweat from his brow with one arm, and slinging his rifle over is shoulder with the other.
"Why has the attack become more frequent as of late?"
Chroma looks back the sky where the last of the rips began to close.
"We are running out of time…"
There was an edge to her voice as she opened a rift back to the manor.
"Come on, let's get those wounds fixed before those wounds get infected…and so your color can come back."
With that she stepped into the rift, the twins followed close behind.
———————————————————————————————————
Manor Infirmary - 1:20 P.M.
Allen and Kiya were getting wounds nursed and their monochromatic appearance was starting to ebb a bit.
"You two wear my style really good? Wanna join the gang?"
Chroma chuckles lighten up the mood from the earlier scare.
"I would, but that means having my strength halved for the rest of my life, haha."
Kiya played along with Chromas nonsense as she raised her tail to move her hair away so that the nurse could clean up a cut on her forehead. Allen other not very amused.
"That's asking for a death wish, I quite like my color."
"So fiesty. Take a chill pill, I'll be back to check on you two."
Chroma turned on her heels and walked out of the infirmary leaving a small trail of monochrome in her steps.As she walked flashes of what she saw begin to replace in her mind.
"Hm. You've been away too long and Cuasavia paying the price…"
She mumbles to herself grimly before making her way back to her office.
[1] Chroma is a replica of the "Creator" that stand at a hight of 5,8 ft. Her real age is unknown, but she believes that she is the same age as her creator (17). She is characterized a being devoid of vibrant colors, and is instead grayscale like an old tv. The only places that seem to keep its color was here eyes which are a peppermint blue color and a pair of glasses that or gold. She can take other people, objects, or animals colors and turn it into energy a gift, that the Creator gave her. When facing off Scouterrians she sometimes see past the rifts which hides its entire body, it never fails to scare her to a freeze.
[2] Cuasavia is the name of the world the figure had created. Very similar to earth, integrated to host characters and places she had made up.
[3] Teddy is a childhood teddy bear of the creator made into a living boy for her world With no specific age. He mainly pink and white with a cyan white stripe shirt and cream colored overalls. The creator that it would be funny for that little guy who stand at 2,6ft to wield a comically large battle hammer and he knows how to use it. His age isn’t specified because he can’t age anyways, but he takes the body of a 10 year old Child. He’s childish, Playful and, likes Catching Bugs.
[4] Mike is a 27 Melanistic gray wolf man who stand at 6,5ft. He could be described as a soft Emo with a love for pink, blue and black things that are "cute". Sounds familiar? He dies his hair and tail a light shade of cya, but his ears and tail seem to fade the color out faster so he’s often seen with black ear, cyan and half faded tail. His claws are sharp but retractable so he does hurt people on accident. He’s a nice guy as long as you aren’t is enemy.
[5] Kiya was formerly a human girl before becoming the unwilling subject of some cruel scientist. The creator did punish those scientists with banishment, but she cannot revert her back because what they used on here did not come from the world she created. She is older fraternal twin to Allen and is married to Soren. She stands at 5,5ft and is 29 years old. She wields a battle scythe which can use the for combat and moving around, kinda like a witches broomstick. Her mutation gave her pointy ears and a long thin tail with red pointed edge that she found out could change shapes, and made it into a heart. She uses her tail to grab and constricted making it a wonderful third hand.
[6] Scouter or Scouterrians are the main foe to this world and are often described as otherworldly, eldritch, incomprehensible beings that shouldn’t exist. The creator themself does know what they are, but they seem interested in her world. They are often accompanies by shadows they seem to always be the ones tearing into the sky and opening rifts for them. It is not know what would happen if the Scouterrians made it completely into the the world.
[7] Stewler Sea one of the many areas that the Creator made. It is a seas from in the far western region and is often characterized with calm water, yet it’s often cloudy.
[8] Allen Izuky was formerly a human boy before becoming the first unwilling subject of some cruel scientist. The creator did punish those scientists with banishment, but they cannot revert him back because what they used on him did not come from the world she created. He is youngest fraternal twin to Kiya Esters and is a little brother in law to Soren Esters. He stands at 5,12 ft and is 29 years old. He wields the following weapons: An assault rifle, two pistol, a revolver, a Glock, twin blades, and his fist. His mutation is similar to his sister’s with pointy ears and a long thin tail with red pointed edge, with one exception, his wings which vaguely resemble bat wings. He looks like he doesn’t care, and is often seen with blank expressions, but in truth he’s very helpful, especially when it comes to planning surprises. After all he did help Soren propose to his sister.
[9] Colorforia is Chromas’ personal skill When in use it drains color from the surrounding area, including anything and everything in that area and condenses it into a point of energy that can be molded into a weapon which can be used for longer time at the risk of fighting or focused point which does max damage in the blink of one’s eye. The draw back is that everything she drained color from will become weaker, a double edged sword. Am advantage against her enemy and a draw back to her team. She prefer using it in focus point to avoid keep here friends down too long. When she stops using the skill, for a large area, it takes about 72 day for color to return completely and for small area only 24 hours. For living beings affected by it takes around 12 for them to regain color. That being said. Teddy, being a human form of teddy bear does not count as a living being and therefore has the hardest time when it comes to recovery.
