Here was a chill in the air as the Kings' of Blitz stood on the high balcony outside of the Hall of Heros. Looking at the crystallized castle grounds that used to be lush and beautiful, the grieving queen's heart felt like an empty void."It's the dreamers, you know," the Izun says. "They're too busy now to sleep and dream. Without their dreams, we'll soon fade away. Our land is already freezing over with pink crystals, and the other dream worlds are just as damaged as ours. We can't last much longer." "You're right," the kings' said with a nod, "but, there isn't anything we can do about it." Dejected, the royal kings' returned to their castle to begin preparations for the ball they were soon to host in the waking world. . . . that night something terrible was about to be born. . . It started out as a rumble. Then, magic began to happen in the spaces between Blitz. Tiny pieces of crystallized dust bounced around the lifeless void, then began to dance. Out of the swirling clouds of emptiness, a figure began to take shape. First one foot, then the other, emerged from the swarm, as the lonely figure stepped into in the night air. The stars were shining brightly as the silent lady stood still in the moonlight, completely transparent, gazing up at the towering structure above her. "So empty. . ." The day of the 10th Annual Ball finally arrived. Members from every corner of the map came in droves to celebrate the Masquerade of Blitz, hosted by the Kings'. The members, all arrayed in masks of various fashions, twirled around the ballroom, and laughed at fond memories with old friends. No one in that room had a care in the world. That is, except for the hosts of the ball who were preoccupied with the demise of their kingdom. Though their kingdom was failing, the ball seemed to be a huge success, that is, until a strange figure appeared on the balcony. The newcomer seemed to be an elegant lady made entirely of light blue glass, draped in delicate linens. She had a strange beauty about her, but the shallow pools of her eyes offered no warmth. A truly mysterious figure was she, whose disposition seemed to hold authority over all worlds. At her first word, the iciness of her voice caused the gathering to fall immediately silent. "Empty. The Blitz World is now empty because of you. Silly Recruits who refuse to sleep at night, and hence bring my world to destruction, I am your judgement. I am the culmination of all of the dreams that could have been, the ones you never dreamed. I am here for retribution. The realms in my kingdom are falling apart, and you shall all suffer with them in their silent demise unless you do exactly as I say. Enter the world of dreams and heal them. This is your charge." She reached her fingers into the folds of her gown and pulled out silvery grains of sand. "No!" King Izun yelled from below. "What are you doing? You can't use those on the members! It's against the laws of our land! We have no authority over the waking world!" Without even turning to acknowledge the king, the glass lady gracefully dispersed the sand into the crowd. "It is done," she said, "They will not wake again for three days. And when they do...either the Blitz World will be restored or we'll be no more." The kings' and mighty trained officers raced after her, but the glass lady had vanished as quickly as she had appeared. "Maybe this is for the best," Izun whispered. "I hope you're right," Dark-Titan replied as he turned to look at the stunned crowd. It started out with a yawn, but soon, one after another, the members fell to the ground in a deep, enchanted sleep. The members awoke in shimmering room where pictures and colors were constantly changing. In the circular room were seven mirrors, each with a different scene moving around inside. As the members drew closer to the mirrors, they could see themselves in the dreams inside. Suddenly, the Kings' of Blitz appeared in the room, Minato-Namakaze looking particularly pleased. “Welcome to the Hall of Heros. Around you are doors that act as portals to different dreams. Simply step inside them to travel to the dream you wish to visit." The king frowned, and with a half smile, continued. "It really is a lovely place. I'm sorry that it is under harsh circumstances that you have come to visit it. But, even though it is not an ideal time for a visit, I believe that your coming here is fortunate. You see, only the recruits' can change dreams and save them. The inhabitants of the Blitz World can do nothing to affect change. You can. If nothing is done to save the BlitzWorld, then our world will die. So, if you would, please enter one of these dream doors, and help fix the world inside. Just remember, once you enter a dream door, you may not exit it until the door on the other side is restored. The officers and I will be in the Masquerade dream, but I really do hope you’ll visit the other dreams as well. Good luck in your quests! I still have faith in the people of Blitz! Don’t prove me wrong!” With that, the King s' and officers of Blitz faded into the first door in the room, leaving the members and recruits to make their choices. You stumble through the door--and suddenly, all is quiet and dark. In fact, it's almost like there is no colour to be seen at all, as if this monochrome scene is painted in a drab coat of gray. Here it seems like there is only black, white, and whatever shades that exist in between.Where is here, exactly? It seems you've landed in some surreal city, for you've ended up in an eerily silent and narrow backstreet. But as you exit the dirty alleyway and step onto the sidewalk of a main road, you realize you're rather alone in this black and white world. You look around in confusion again, wondering if it's just the blackness of the night sky and the unusual fog playing tricks on you, or if the tall street lamp over at that street corner is just broken. "You're a real slick sharper, aren't you?" a smooth voice coos out of nowhere. Bewildered, you turn to locate the source, and at last you spot some colour, as a pale woman with magnificent auburn hair approaches you from across the street with a sly smirk upon her pink lips. Her eyes are concealed behind dark shades and you briefly wonder why she would be wearing them at this time of night--or during the night at all.
You struggle to come up with a decent reply, but find yourself at a loss. Is it because of her mysterious allure? Is it because you still don't know what's going on? Regardless, she motions for you to follow her, and she guides you through another alleyway before ending up at an inconspicuous door. You can just barely make out the peephole that she now whispers through, but the door abruptly swings open as she seems to have uttered the correct password.
You enter into a large lounge, clouded both by smoke and casual banter as various people are seemingly just hanging around. The dim lighting of the low-hanging ceiling lamps makes it hard to see much, but you can spot a few small round tables and wooden chairs scattered around the room. A couple of worn out couches line the back wall, while there are a few doors on each of the side walls--those seem to lead to private offices. The lovely lady beside you offers a mischievous grin and says, "We could use a few fresh faces around here, and you look like just the plug to snag us the intel we need. So, welcome to our headquarters, doll.” "Plug? Headquarters? What do you mean about intel?" you ask, a little baffled. She laughs heartily and flashes another dazzling smile. "I'm saying that you're one of us, now. You're our newest recruit, savvy?" Since you're now part of the agency, you decide to do a little investigation for yourself and make your way over to one of the doors; it is labelled "Plot Updates". Strange, but you don't question it and merely push your way through--only to find the messiest office you've ever laid eyes upon. A classy wooden desk is buried under piles of papers, an ink-splattered typewriter nestled somewhere in there, too. Typed reports, photos, and all sorts of files litter the floor, and filing cabinets border the entire room. On the back wall, however, there is a large bulletin board with a couple of full pages pinned to it. An important looking notice is hanging on one of the walls; you head over, deciding to check it out. Intent on learning more about the business of being a recruit, you stumble into another one of the private offices--only to discover that you seem to be interrupting an important gathering of sorts. A small group of members stare blankly at you from around the table for a few moments, their expressions unreadable. But then they begin breaking out into grins and are now inviting you to join their briefing meeting. You take your place around the table enthusiastically. They let you in on just a few of the newest schemes being planned, pushing a few pieces of paper across the table for you to look at. "Well?" one of them inquires, "Which mission will you choose to accept?" You stroll into another room, only to find none other than Whitechocolatechip! "Greetings, fellow recruits'!" he says, offering a sweet smile. "Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to complete a few crucial code-breaking assignments. Should you successfully complete a mission, you will be granted a prize and your name will be added to our roster of top cryptographers. But be sure to follow the rules and keep your answers a secret, because there are spies everywhere..."
