In order to embrace the present, one must first understand the past. The story begins five years ago in Zen City, home of the original Aura strikers team. A young man named Jacob could be seen eating with a few of his friends. "Guys! I think I've made a breakthrough!" Jacob waved his hands around, focusing on a rat in a cage. "Chipping and chirping, this is no deceit! Show me an apple that's good to eat!" The rat began to transform, getting the attention of all of his friends who began to cheer loudly when this living rat was turned into a juicy red apple. Jacob reached into the cage, grabbing the apple and taking a bite out of it and smiled widely after a loud gulp! "I told you all that magic does exist! With enough time, I can do some actual good and change the world!" If things were that simple, we wouldn't have a real story to tell. A week later, Jacob borrowed his father's old suit, cleaning up as best he could with slicked back hair and a tie that wasn't adjusted properly. Over the past week, Jacob had used every nerdy trick in the book to get on the radar of the CIA until his efforts were rewarded with a video chat with CIA tech whiz Amy Porter. Her superiors had been alerted to a groundbreaking new resource that help to reshape the world as we know it, so she was assigned to investigate to determine how legit this was. Jacob sat in front of his computer and on schedule, the computer dinged at 4:00PM. He started the call, revealing the CIA operative on the other side. "Hi. I'm Amy Porter. Senior Technical Analyst with the CIA. I understand that you have something big to show us." "Y...yes I do." Jacob began to stutter slightly, partially due to him being so nervous about this discovery and part because he was taken aback by how beautiful Amy was. After regaining his composure, he used the same trick he did last week with the rat. After rubbing his hands together, he began his chant. "Tricks and treats, I like feet but I want something great to eat!" This time, a small cockroach was transformed into a large meal with steak, potatoes, and broccoli. Feeling proud of himself, he sat back in his chair, breathing a heavy sigh of relief. "What do you think!? Amazing, right!? Imagine what the country could do with this type of magic. The possibilities are endless." Amy was silent for a moment. She sighed before running her hands through her hair. "Jacob, right? I don't like having my time wasted. This is a decent trick with your computer but magic?" She chuckled. "That doesn't exist! If I were petty, I'd have you arrested for wasting my time! Now I'm about to look like a jackass because some kid wants to play Yu-gi-Oh!" "No! No, wait! I promise what I'm showing you is...." A loud click interrupted Jacob, signaling the end of the call. "The truth." Jacob was devastated to be shot down so quickly after years of hard work. If this were the end of it, that may be one thing but things were quickly about to go from bad to worse for young Jacob.

Moving his last box into his new apartment in Pearl Cove, Jayden Cross kicked the door closed and set it on the floor. At twenty four years old, Jayden had moved away from his small town Oklahoma life, deciding to move to Pearl Cove for new experiances and hopefully a bigger audience for his budding writing career. He kicked the door shut and set the box down, stretching and looking around the apartment as he did.
"Well, Jaybird, you're finally out of Oklahoma!" he laughed, opening the boxes and starting to move things around and put them where he needed them. After going through several boxes, the young man hopped up and flattened the last box, tossing it to the side. "Ok. Ok. Let's see what the city has to offer. Get some ideas for new places in the book."
He grabbed his phone and walked out, heading downstairs and into town proper. "New city, new experiances. Let's freaking go!"

It was another typical day for Jafaar as he woke up from his sleep after slapping his alarm clock that blared loudly. Letting out a yawn, he stretched and leaves his bed to start his meditation before starting his day out in Pearl Cove. Since his father, Abdul had left the United States, Jafaar had been keeping himself busy with studying medicine in college and assisting with his mother, Alisa, at the hospital until she told him to start taking some time off to keep himself from being overworked. After his meditation, he took a nice long shower before getting himself dressed and whistled loudly across his apartment. "Balto! Come here boy," he called out and a large wolfdog approached him. He hooked on his leash as he looked at him with a small smile. "You ready to go for a walk, boy?" he asked and the canine barked happily. Jafaar chuckled, "Alright, let's go," he said and grabs his keys and phone before walking out of the apartment, being met with the morning sunlight and the calm streets of Pearl Cove. Grabbing tight of the leash, he began to walk Balto through the sidewalk.

A few days after Jacob received that rejection from the CIA. Jacob was struggling to eat and to sleep. Focus in school was non-existent and proper hygiene was optional. After school, he was walking home, keeping to himself. He was so in his own world that he didn't notice that an unmarked black car pulled and was put in park. Two men got out of the car in suits. Without saying a word, they grabbed the young man and threw him in the back of the car before speeding away.
"Who are you people!? Where are you taking me!?" Jacob exclaimed, looking at the men in the car in an attempt to regain his bearings.
"We received reports that you're trying to utilize magic. That type of thinking is dangerous and can lead to some very cult-like behavior."
"But... I'm trying to help people!" In his nervousness, tears began to fall from Jacob's eyes, panicking with his predicament.
Suddenly, there was a crash. A large truck slammed into the black car, causing a massive explosion in the middle of the road. For Jacob, he opened his eyes, surprised to see that he was still alive. "HELP! Somebody help me!" Jacob cried out for help, kicking the door with no success. "Free me from this prison, these flames I do quell! I call for my salvation... release and dispel!" In a sudden turn, the flames began to vanish, leaving the wreckage and smoke coming from both vehicles. Once the flames were gone, Jacob passed out. At a later point, Jacob slowly opened his eyes. "Where am I?" He asked, looking around.
"You Mr. Jacob...." A mysterious man entered the room, smiling at the injured teen. "Are at the starting point of the rest of your life."

Marina had gotten up early that morning and decided to go for a run. When she returned an hour later she took a shower and washed her hair. Changing into shorts and a t-shirt she made some breakfast. When she was finished she put them in the dishwasher and headed to the living room. She curled up on her couch and sipped on her coffee, her hair wrapped up in a towel. Letting her mind wander she stared out into her back yard and watched the squirrels running back and forth on the fence.

Jacob was feeling disoriented with everything that was going on and now there was this man with a suit who appeared to be the one in charge. "Where you are isn't important. Just know that you are among friends." Jacob looked around, seeing several guys walking around the building in unique uniforms that were unfamiliar to him. "Wh...who are you? Why am I here?" "If you must know." The man sat at a nearby table. "My name is Zephyr. And some associates of mine pulled you out of a flaming mess.... or it was flaming until you showed some unique talent. We'd have to work on your verbiage but I don't think that'll be a problem." "You saw that!?" "Mmhmmm..." Zephyr nodded. "Apparently, someone in that government didn't think you were full of it. I can only imagine what they would have done to you had my associates not intervened!" Jacob felt conflicted with Zephyr's statement. On one hand, his attempted kidnapping also served as a bit of vindication regarding what he was trying to show to the world. On the other hand, The same government he trusted to do the right thing in the pursuit of peace and prosperity turned on him and had no qualms about doing unspeakable things to a kid in high school. "I...appreciate you helping me." Jacob nodded as he was grateful for the assist but was still unsure. "But how can you help me? If the CIA wants me that badly, won't they send others?" "I can teach you how to hone that power." Zephyr stood up and walked towards Jacob. He slowly waved his hand. Red energy was forming around his hand. "I can teach you how to get revenge against those who wronged you. "Devote yourself to my cause and I will grant you power beyond your wildest dreams!" Zephyr held his hand out and Jacob paused for a moment, thinking not only of his recent rejection and kidnapping but because of how many people looked at him when he tried to share his magic with the world. "Okay. Where do we start?" Jacob stood up, shaking Zephyr's hand.

Jafaar continued to walk with his dog until he decided to make a stop at the Whole Foods store to get his breakfast since he had forgotten to get it before he left to walk Balto. Once he had gotten what he wanted, he walked up to the checkout to see his best friend, Bentley Martin at the register and he gave him one of the biggest smiles. "Bentley, good morning!" he exclaimed in his calm manner and the latter smiled. "Hey, Jafaar! How's it goin', man?" Bentley asked Jafaar as he began to check out the latter's food. "It's going good. Working hard to become an expert in medicine," Jafaar replied. "However, my mother wants me to take a break since class had been piling up on me." Bentley laughed, "Is that right, at least it's better than trying to get a record contract," he joked and Jafaar looked at him, raising a brow. "Are you still trying to pursue a career in music?" The latter sighed, "Yeah... but I am trying," he spoke to Jafaar while working on the register and giving him his change. "Soon, as I do. I will be huge. More huge than Drake." Jafaar shook his head, "I know you will. Just try not to get a big head when you do," he spoke to Bentley before getting his food and walking out of the store where Balto was patiently waiting for him. He grabbed the dog's leash and they continued on with their walk.

After they finish their meal, Pilar and Daphne went to their separate directions to begin their day.
"What should I do now?" Pilar asked to herself as she leaves the campus with her bicycle. Since her next class won't begin until the evening, there's enough time for her to do what she needs to do. Right now, it's cycling exercise, and she has to ride around the campus and places outside of it. By the time she enters the city of Pearl Cove, she parks her bike so she can take a break. Looking around the city makes Pilar feel more appreciated because she's able to visit here when she's not in school. With a smile, she drinks her Powerade and enjoys her break.

Jayden made his way down the street, looking around Pearl Cove as he did. "Hm...bigger then I thought," he said. His phone rang and he sighed, knowing from the tone who it was. "Hey, Mom."
"Jay, you told me you'd call when you got settled in. It's been two days."
"Jeeze, Mom. I just finished getting everything unpacked and I'm looking around the city. It's gonna take some getting used to. I'll be fine, Mom. Trust me. It's diffeent from Ada, yeah, but I'll make do."
"I just hope you're gonna be fine, sweetie. You know I worry."
"I know," Jayden said, jogging across the street at a light. "And if you didn't, then I'd be worried. I'll be alright. Trust me. I gotta go, Mom. I'll call you later, ok?"
"Ok, sweetheart. Love you."
"Love you," Jayden said, hanging up the phone and shaking his head. "Christ."

Once the deal was sealed, Jacob became Zephyr's personal pupil as he trained the disenfranchised teen in the dark arts. Over the next few years, Jacob's power grew considerably and as his power grew, so did Zephyr's influence over him. We are now a few weeks shy of present day and thanks to Zephyr, Jacob's power knew almost no bounds. His training was almost complete. "You're almost ready to spread your wings and fly on your own! All you need is to awaken your true form. Awaken your darkness so that you can truly become the force of nature I know you can be!" "I'm ready!" Jacob's eyes were wide with excitement, eager to see what this new ascension would bring. "Are your ready to shed your mortal flesh and evolve like none have ever seen before!" "I'm ready!" "Then focus your magic! Allow your magic to freely flow through your body!" Jacob closed his eyes and focused as his master told him. Once he began to really feel the magic, he was blasted with a wave of red energy by Zephyr, causing Jacob to yell in pain. As he endured, his body began to change. His skin was ripping from his body and he had grown taller. Bones were emerging from his chest and turning into an unknown metal of some kind and his eyes were replaced with what looked like a red vizor while another appendage was coming out of his head. Once the transformation was complete, Jacob stood in his new form. The initial shock almost made him pass out but Zephyr caught him, smiling at his handiwork. "Fantastic!" Zephyr exclaimed. "You've done it! You are reborn!" "I did!? I did it!" The two started dancing in celebration. "Oh and a new form means new accessories!" Jacob created a long staff with a Z on the tip in order to harness and utilize his power more easily. "A new form also needs a new name." Zephyr scratched his chin, unsure of what to use until it him him. "I've got it! From this moment forward, I shall call you... ZARON! "Zaron? It has a nice ring to it." Jacob... now Zaron began laughing menacingly, releasing tons of energy into the atmosphere. *** When Eddie appeared in Dr. Connor's home, the young man walked up to the doctor and hugged him with both in tears in their eyes. "We did it." Eddie said in a muffled tone, struggling to speak. "We finally did it." "We sure did. This is for the team. Now they can rest in peace." Dr. Connor sighed. "But what about you? What will you do now?" "To be honest, I don't know. I'm going to need to take some time to figure it out. In the meantime, you can lock this up with the other gems." Eddie pulled his morpher out of his pocket along with Drake's gem, before he could hand the gem to the doctor, it began to glow before seemingly being absorbed by the green morpher. "...... that's new." Dr. Connor examined Eddie's morpher and although he couldn't explain it, the morpher used the power of Drake's gem and now it was crackling with green energy, seemingly restored with power. "Well kid, whatever you do, looks like your days in spandex aren't done just yet." "I guess not." Eddie didn't know how to feel about his morpher absorbing the gem in a symbiotic manner but at least now he has a choice. Suddenly, there was an additional glow coming from the safe in the corner in the room. "Oh great!" Dr. Connor ran over, opening the safe, taking out the Aura coins previously used by the Aura Strikers team. The five coins first regressed back into their original form before starting to change and evolve. When the bright glow faded, they were left with five new crystals "That's new.." Dr. Connor deadpanned. "They evolved! You don't think..." "No." Eddie quickly snatched the tray of new crystals and put them back in the safe, quickly closing it. "We can't put more lives in harm's way." His tone quickly changed, instantly fearing a repeat of what happened with Dragonis. "You're right." Dr. Connor agreed with Eddie as he didn't want to kill the vibe on what was a great day but the look in his eyes told a different story, feeling that maybe they were given a chance at complete redemption. Little did Dr. Connor or anyone know at that point, the crystals didn't just evolve for a feel good story. Somehow, they sensed the rise of this new power and knew that it had to be stopped otherwise, this entire Earth was doomed.

Once Duncan did his warmup drills, it was time for practice matches. He was paired off with one of the new recruits. The squared off but with Duncan getting the upper hand in the end. Duncan then took the newbie and ran through some of the things that the newbie could work on and maybe tweak as Duncan was more experienced than most of the trainees.

As Jafaar began to take a break from walking Balto, he took a seat on a bench at Pearl Cove Park and began to eat his breakfast which was a nice bowl of oatmeal while Balto was given some beef jerky to snack on. Throughout his break, he looked at his phone and he saw a text message from his mother who wanted to check up on him and he shook his head.
"Mom sure worries a lot," he spoke to himself and he replied to her message.
