Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Birthright

In the lands to the West. A woman and her husband are in the town's hospital. The woman is giving birth to their first child, a baby boy. She had always wished for a child. The young couple never cared which gender they just wanted a family. Today it seems like it was their lucky day. The inexperienced husband who has no idea how the process of childbirth goes wanted to be helpful.

So he did the only thing he thought would work

"I got you Hana take my hand control your breathing"

The wife annoyed with his yapping squeezes on his hand with such an immense force. Moments later, after pushing for what felt like an eternity, the baby boy was born. A healthy baby boy with a light brown skin complexion.

Holding the baby in her arms. The mother and father look at each other with eyes full of happiness and love then look back at the newborn baby. They named him together at the same time.

"Noah. you are our son, Noah"

In the lands to the war torn East. A girl is also born. But from the body of a recently deceased corpse of a woman, crying on the wet soil. In a village that could only be described as a living hell. A small, frail, weak, freakishly pale colored baby girl. With no idea of what is going on around her. A soldier who nearly stepped on her jerks his foot to the side to avoid hitting the defenseless child. 

"What the hell is a baby doing here?!"

He looks a little bit behind the child.

"Did this kid, climb out of that dead woman's body?! Nah that can't be right yea I'm imagining things."

He was in fact not imagining things. He flipped the dead woman over to see her face. He thanked the fact that he used to play around here all the time for the fact that he would most likely recognize the face.

M- my."

struggling to even get a word out he drops to his knees and starts crying. This is the first time he's ever cried like this. slamming his fists into the ground. screaming and crying like the child next to him. He just cant process the fact that his pregnant wife died and he wasn't there for her last moments because he was a soldier and swore to protect the land. he loses the ability to think for a solid 30 seconds because he can't figure out what to do. Looking back at the child. then back at the field where more enemies lurk, then back at the baby, then back to the open field crawling with enemies. 

"I got to save my damn baby" he says to himself out loud.

He aggressively picks up the baby and runs as fast as possible to the nearest safe zone. He puts the child into the hands of one of the nurses. 

"Please protect my child. You never know what the future holds for these little monsters"

The young nurse silently nods then asks

"um sir, what's your name? Ahh excuse my manners I forgot to give mine first. I'm Mayuri."

The confused soldier is curious as to how this conversation holds any value but replies to be nice anyways whilst walking off,

"I'm Aram. Anyways goodbye and take care of my kid. I swear I'll be back for them!"

"By the way her name is Saienne!"

The nurse screamed as loud as possible

"Don't die Mr. Aram sir!" 

At birth. All children are given some type of ability known as a birthright. these abilities all are unique. And no same two exist at the same time within different people. These abilities are all very simple but can all be utilized in extremely unique ways depending on the user. Each ability starts off extremely weak but can be strengthened and leveled up as the user trains and practices alongside their creativity of course. At the age of 5 every child is given an explanation of their abilities in a way that fits their understanding the best to ensure every child knows their ability. Noah was born with the ability teleportation. He can summon portals to teleport or do so without portals. depending on which he used. He would get different results. portals allow him to simply open a portal on 2 ends. For example, if he wanted to touch something 10 feet in front of him. he could open one portal in front of his hand and one on the other side touching said thing 10 feet away. now he can reach that thing, touch it, feel around it, and so on all from that one position 10 feet away. However if he wanted to teleport his whole body would be instantly transported to a location of his choosing. 

Noah's mom Hana is about to burst with frustration when hearing this.

"So this is how u would always hide things from me huh?"

nervous five year old Noah looks to his dad, but to no avail his father Taijin looks to Noah with eyes that pierce the soul with such a sharp fear. 

"So boy. This ability huh. This is how you managed to hide the fact u took my books from me? We'll discuss this later don't worry I wont forget.

Saienne is also learns a bit about her ability. Being the young girly girl she is she hopes to get something like age manipulation or cloth creation to make any clothes she wants.

"Super strength"

In utter disbelief,

"you're joking right? WHAT BOYS WILL LIKE A GIRL WHO CAN RIP THEM TO SHREDS INSTANTLY!!!!

dramatically balling herself up in a corner after this discovery

"My life is ruined. 100% ruined"

Aram came up and tried sounding wise to look cool 

"Strength comes from within my child, this ability is superficial strength. Not something your soul will benefit from. Grow strong in heart and mind. And let the body follow suit"

Aram tilting his head to look away while grinning in satisfaction"

"That was perfect"

Saienne who eased up a bit because of that and laughs with aram.

"daddy you're so silly hahaha"
