Summer 2024
Heat has broken through into a glorious summer. The snow has entirely dried through the spring, leaving to the brilliance of the warmer months. Terror activity has risen as people are brought out of their homes, leaving the TRS in a position of consistent work. Each are attempting to maintain victory in the endless struggle for power.

There was no assistance from Caden, much to Jayden’s dismay considering all he required was a location to teleport to. Escaping the victim’s sight was a favourable route for escape from these negative emotions. They were beginning to weigh, making his steps feel heavy and oddly, his heart ache in sympathy for the upset woman. She was beautiful, captivating and causing his emotions to respond differently in these situations. Ditching her proved difficult, his body refusing to react normally in the situation; under most circumstances, he would have used the nearest door to escape. Alas, this stranger managed to keep him bound close over this period of time, as though something tied them together. He forced himself forward, steps still a slow as he gradually proceeded down the sidewalk. There were a limited amount of people in the area, much to Jayden’s relief considering the reasons behind his unexpected follower. As his twin commented on her beauty, Jayden remained speechless, a barely noticeable pale pink. Fortunately, the winter weather could be an adequate excuse for the redness; at least he hoped. There would evidently be no silencing his brother who appeared to enjoy telepathically teasing him throughout the flustering ordeal; he should have seen this coming…
[break][break]
When Caden commented about dragging to along, the older twin rolled his eyes. He was plenty capable to shake the blue-haired girl off and sprint to the nearest door. Once beyond the threshold, he would have disappeared to great distances, but his brother’s lack of cooperation only made leaving him behind more tempting; the man could use a good jog.
[break][break]
“I could easily shake her off! Now stop torturing me and tell me where the hell you are! I am not playing these stupid games, Caden!”
[break][break]
The telepathic message he sent back possessed an angrier tone as Jayden gradually got more annoyed with his brother’s antics. As time progressed, the vexation of handling his brother became more evident in his expression. Head slouched over, hiding his exasperated countenance in his high-collared jacket while a frown adamantly remained on his face. He kept tromping forward, listening to the girl as she proceeded to answer his questions. Her words escaped her lips softly, suggesting loneliness which resulted in Jayden’s expression softening as he paused to glance back towards her. Overwhelming pity began entering his mind, an unusual consequence for this particular encounter; why did he feel sympathy for her? As she proceeded, Jayden remained frozen in place, flinching at her questions before glancing down at the sidewalk, refusing to meet her brilliant eyes. The tears which welled and dropped from them were horrible, Jayden feeling a pang of sadness; his brother caused this because of his need to steal. For once, he felt the stomach-wrenching powers of guilt as its claws dug in, but he attempted to keep his face guarded after his flinch.
[break][break]
“It’s all I’m good at,” he mumbled quietly before turning to leave.
[break][break]
Thievery was an addiction, something he fed because he grew skillful in it; he could not resist. Merely catching a glimpse of an item could result in the desire to quiet snatch it from the owner and leave them shocked. There was only a pair of skills Jayden maintained in his repertoire, which was thievery and fighting. He lacked the intelligence for certain occupations, thus his solution was to proceed to be the brawn and allow Caden to handle the brains. He proceeded to keep his gaze locked with the dully coloured sidewalk, an ache entering his chest as he ceased his escape attempt again.

There were disadvantages to being the polar opposite of his twin in personality, which were these moments where victims found him and demanded their items back. While his brother could simply scare them away or entice lustful thoughts, Jayden was oftentimes limited to intimidating gazes and displaying his superior strength. Currently, however, it was becoming the victim to an attractive woman's pleading for the return of her belongings; merely being in her presence was mildly disorienting. The older twin kept attempting to comprehend these abnormal thoughts and actions. Generally, he would not feel these pangs of guilt or force himself to move slower than usual. Certainly, there had to be somebody playing puppet master with him, whether it was this girl or an outside source was difficult to decipher. When she questioned his demand to let go, Jayden finally realized she had merely been standing there, not holding him in place. A faint pink touched his cheeks, the older twin lowering his head and shrugging his shoulders, attempting to give the impression of being cold rather than embarrassed from his slip up.
[break][break]
"You're coming to me? Caden, it is easier if I come to you! Just send me a picture, dammit! I can teleport and be there in seconds!"
[break][break]
There was an infuriated tone as Jayden sent a telepathic message back to the more flirtatious twin, praying he would grant him a location he could teleport to. If there were enough images, he could possibly open a doorway there and escape the beautiful woman to desired her necklace back. The teasing was suspicious, the shy twin immediately surveying the area after hearing Caden's remark about the weather; he prayed his brother was not witnessing his pathetic escape attempt. Eventually, another exasperated sigh escaped Jayden's mouth as his eyes narrowed; Caden was enjoying watching him squirm because of this beautiful woman! It was infuriating, especially when the older twin wished to fetch his brother and leave Lorsette entirely before she proceeded to make the guilt rise.
[break][break]
"It's not funny! Stop being an ass!" He snapped back.
[break][break]
When the female stranger proceeded to follow, Jayden merely glanced towards her briefly and continued to move slowly. There were some excellent points made, however, the older twin wished his body would rush away instead of gradually dragging himself forward. The guilt became irritating, going the length to bring a mild stomachache as his head insisted to steal the necklace from his brother and return it to the blue-haired girl. There was a shrug after she mentioned her deal, Jayden knowing police interference would be an excellent excuse to teleport home through the nearest door.
[break][break]
"Can't you get a new one?" Jayden grumbled quietly in response.
[break][break]
There were plenty of occasions where the older twin was forced to purchase a new hat to allow his twin to match him; they had an identity to maintain to Jayden's displeasure. He assumed she could merely buy another online, which would presumably be in better condition than her previous. The blush returned when Caden made his comment about taking his time, the older twin sparing a moment to glance around for his younger brother. Obviously, his flirtatious brother possessed a vantage point to watch them, but the problem was deducing where Caden could possibly be. They were both thieves, thus Jayden was under the impression his brother would possibly be hiding somewhere secluded where few people could enter and exit; it was the best method to avoid detection.

There were never thoughts taken towards the possibility of people desiring their items back, Jayden desiring to ignore the possibility of guilt. He was a thief, expected to merely steal without thinking about the repercussions or feelings he sparked as a result. Stealing items and lives were always meant with emotional responses from the owners or loved ones, alas, the older twin always ignored them. This woman, however, was an entirely different case for the fighter. Perhaps she possessed a special power to manipulate his emotions? Under most circumstances, he was impassive about the emotions of those who lost something; he never even thought about how he would feel should somebody decide to steal his belongings. While his brother occasionally would steal from him, Jayden was never worried considering sneaking into Caden's room was easy, thus he failed to comprehend the significance. The abrupt complaint which burst out from the blue-haired girl's mouth caused Jayden's brow to lift slightly, surprised by her sudden shift. From what the older twin gathered, the stranger was adamant about retrieving her necklace opposed to fleeing.
[break][break]
As he fixated his green eyes on her, Jayden found the guilt creeping back into his gut, yet, he failed to understand why. While handling the young lady, he listened to his younger brother's vague answer on a location. An outward sigh escaped his lips, the socially awkward man desiring a more descriptive answer.
[break][break]
"Soooo descriptive, he began sarcastically. "I can make you walk home you know. Have we been there before?"
[break][break]
When Caden made his next remark about flirting on his behalf, Jayden glanced away from the female stranger as his cheeks burned red. Listening to his younger twin's flirtatious tendencies, the bashful man could only imagine the words which would be stated on the recording. There were bound to be vile comments which suggested libidinous desires, which were notions he preferred to avoid entirely. He was about to proceed walking when he heard the woman speak again, although, Jayden refused to turn his head because of the slight shade of red.
[break][break]
"... I see," he murmured. "Are... you going to let go?"
[break][break]
Confliction was becoming a problem, especially since there was something special about her attention, alas, the guilt proceeded to eat away at Jayden. Once his complexion turned fair, he glanced back towards the mysterious woman, finding his met by her dazzling blue eyes. They were marvellous and brilliant, shinier then gems now that he could proper gaze upon them. The older twin found himself staring, examining her beauty before finally glancing forward, remaining motionless.
[break][break]
"This girl is weird... Also, no, I don't need help. I can handle myself," Jayden informed Caden. "I'm the soldier if you can handle her, I definitely can."
[break][break]
After a few moments, Jayden pushed himself to proceed with moving, albeit, slower than before. The long strides were ceased in favour of short ones. He struggled to speed himself up, as though there were strings binding him in his location; as if something magical held him in place. It was obvious remaining near the stranger resulted in these peculiar effects and Jayden knew he could not risk allowing these guilty emotions to consume him. His occupation was to steal, not worry about the emotions of a beautiful woman.

[break] You guys are so quick, and here I am 4 days later. lol
Guilt resulted in a faint aching sensation in Jayden's stomach as he turned away from the crying woman in a desperate attempt to avoid the negative emotions. Those enchanting blue eyes were bothersome on the attractive face of this mysterious woman, although, turning away failed to solve his problems. Originally, he thought his silent stare managed to deter her following, but instead, the beautiful, blue-haired girl stumbled before finally releasing his wrist. The comments Caden made in reference to her ravishing appearance resulted in Jayden outwardly rolling his eyes. Countering or questioning his younger twins opinions was a pointless cause, especially considering his thoughts fixated on the more libidinous endeavours which arrived with partners. Under most circumstances, Caden providing these opinions were meaningless, however, part of Jayden desired to snap about leaving her alone; these were never comments thought of prior. As he proceeded through the slender gap between buildings, the older twin wondered why he remained bothered by his twin's promiscuous attitude when it arrived at this particular woman.
[break][break]
Long strides were taken, Jayden attempting to distance himself from the blue-haired girl. When he heard her proceed to speak again, he merely continued walking. There was a mention of a necklace, confirming Caden to be the culprit of the missing item. The telepathic communication silently continued as Caden made his comments about him being a "damsel in distress", resulting in another annoyed eye roll from Jayden. Considering his skillfulness in combat, the older twin doubted he would be placed in that type of situation.
[break][break]
"I'm fine. I can handle cops, guards and other strong people, I can handle a little girl," Jayden responded. "Now where the hell are you?"
[break][break]
Pink breached Jayden's complexion when his brother nonchalantly recommended requesting a fling in hopes she would leave. Those naughtier desires were never interesting in the older twin's mind, especially considering his immense shyness. He could hardly manage to voice his opinions when around a group of strangers, thus why he frequently left Caden with the art of conversation. While his twin possessed a dirtier mind, he also had the social skills to successfully speak in conversation.
[break][break]
"FUCK NO! I AM NOT LIKE YOU, CADEN! I CAN HARDLY SPEAK IF I ATTEND AN ASSEMBLY MEETING, LET ALONE FLIRT!" He responded in a mild flustered, his cheeks gradually returning to their fair complexion. "OF COURSE I WON'T BRING HER HOME! I'M NOT THAT STUPID!"
[break][break]
There was suddenly a hand on his shoulder, Jayden stiffening until his steps ceased entirely. The older twin glanced over his shoulder, analyzing the woman's facial expression. The manner which she bit her lip suggested nervousness, perhaps anxieties over handling the supposed criminal who thieved her valuable necklace. She voiced her desire for her necklace, a quiver evident in her words, offering payment which made Jayden's brow raise as his interest was earned, yet, there remained a guilty feeling in the pit of his stomach. For some otherworldly reason, taking money from her seemed wrong; as though he would be committing a great travesty as a result. After she stated her "please", Jayden proceeded to stare before an inaudible sigh escaped his lips.
[break][break]
"Why?" A single word meant to voice his curiosity about why she desired the necklace back.
[break][break]
Despite his yearning to escape the guilt in allowing his brother to steal her necklace, Jayden remained motionless in the alleyway, awaiting her pending response. Based on her attachment to the piece of jewelry, the older twin was interested in the value the item possessed, going lengths to presume that perhaps it was monetary.

[break] Silent boy has finally arrived after a template delve!
After several days of cold, the weather warmed allowing for a pleasant day traversing the streets of Lorsette. The sun shone across the snow and crowds were plenty as people used the opportunity to gather groceries before everything turned miserable once more. Unfortunately, the massive crowds allowed for easy cover for dastardly Milton twins to separate and search for possible victims to their thieving attempts. It began with a single thief among the family, but it appeared the younger twin began performing the sinful act, following in the boots of the older twin, Jayden. While his brother began a little over a year ago, the silent twin had accomplished the illegal acts since he was a mere child, thus growing adept at a young age. A soft sigh escaped his lips as he watched the fray of people moving past one another, nobody really catching his eye for possible thievery; he wanted a specific person. The type which flaunted their wealth, but proved to carry a fat wad of cash instead of meagre cards. Stealing those oftentimes ended in the money being traced or the card being closed before he or Caden could use it for their own desires.
[break][break]
As he watched, Jayden wore his signature hat on top his green locks alongside a green long-coat with a high-bearing collar to better hide his sharp facial features. Sunglass hid his brilliant green eyes, Jayden wishing to remain hidden from those around him. While he watched the innocent people wander the streets, he wondered if they ever thought about how close a criminal could be in their vicinity. Certainly, they were too fixated on their personal business to possible ponder such notions, right? He supposed it was his advantage being the wrongdoer in the situation. Eventually, Jayden's eyes caught the familiar green and a hint of red of Canadian money; a twenty (the green) and a fifty (the red). There needed to be at least seventy dollars in the back pocket of a professionally dressed man with a briefcase in his hand. Considering Jayden failed to find any more notable victims, the best choice was this gentleman with at least seventy dollars carelessly placed in his back pocket; it was literally primed to be pickpocketed.
[break][break]
Thus, Jayden moved silently, timing himself to cross the sidewalk behind the man, his hand smoothly plucking the bills from the pocket and plunging them into the pits of his coat. There was a side glance towards the man, the older twin checking his peripherals to see if anybody noticed. The lack of confrontation accompanied by no reaction from his victim assured Jayden he was successful. Despite the successful mission, Jayden remained expressionless to avoid suspicion, although, his job felt beyond easy. Fortunately, it was not eye-catching and allowed for the older twin to blend into the crowd to avoid suspicion from any other citizens in the business district. There was no thrill in a simplistic mission, unfortunately, thus Jayden remained excited for when Caden could plan their next large-scale heist. Adrenaline, difficulty and general enjoyment were discovered in those moments for the kleptomaniac. As he proceeded to walk down the sidewalk, he heard his brother mention his recent accomplishment in thievery.
[break][break]
"Seriously?" Jayden answered, returning the telepathic thoughts. "I have seventy bucks... but the dude was an idiot and left it hanging out his back pocket."
[break][break]
Currently, Caden's spoils and methods were appearing more fun compared to his own, more reserved methods; then again, Caden was practically triple his speed. The younger twin could easily accomplish more risky actions considering he could speed away to avoid the RCMP or the victim; then again, Jayden merely needed a door to end up miles away. After a few moments, the older twin turned into the alleyways, planning to use an obscure method of travel to get elsewhere. Constantly, his eyes scanned the area until a sudden gust of wind blew his hat off, causing a sigh to escape his lips. The hat was plucked from the ground, Jayden dusting it off before putting it on his head. Another scrutinization of his surroundings until a firm hand grabbed his wrist, resulting in the older twin lifting a brow; did the businessman play calm this long? A glance back allowed him to notice the blue-haired girl, evidently upset and demanded him to give it back. There were tears trickling from her stunning blue eyes, certainly, the cash was not of significance, right?
[break][break]
There were people who required money, although, Jayden oftentimes provided them mercy, instead, fixating his attention on the excellently who were bound to have plenty more money. Losing it would be discouraging, but would not cause a plethora of problems those of low wealth possessed. Silently, he stared at her, uncertain of how to react to her emotional expression and the words she stated. She was obviously distraught about something he did, or somebody of replicated appearance did...
[break][break]
"Brother... did you steal from a blue-haired girl?" He asked telepathically to Caden.
[break][break]
There were no words spoken from Jayden's lips as he proceeded to stare at the beautiful woman clinging to his wrist. Her eyes managed to catch his attention, magnificent and sparkling like sapphires; he wondered what they would look like with the absence of tears. They would definitely display their excellent shine better than in their current, sorrowful state. It was shameful watching her cry, the older twin even being bothered by it despite witnessing several incidents of people crying from valuable possessions being stolen, but why exactly was she different? She was merely displaying the mundane human emotion of sorrow like everybody else. Instead of listening or staring any longer, Jayden turned away, deciding to keep moving; should she continue to remain latched to his wrist, he would merely drag her along. There were people he needed to observe to possibly steal from, although, he felt oddly guilty for not attempting to soothe her sorrow and could not comprehend why... This was an interesting development for the normally money-minded male.
At a stature of 6’0”, Jayden is tall and the same height as his twin, Caden. Due to possessing plenty of muscle from his enjoyment of sports, he is rather heavy, although, this tends to be an unnoticeable different between the twins. He is well-toned with muscles, even possessing abs because of the amount of exercise he gets involved in. He is frequently seen exercising because of his immense liking to physical activity. These muscles are hidden beneath his clothing and are rather lean. With the assistance of his enhanced strength, his hits are harder than expected. Jayden has a fair complexion, a few tiny scars dotting his knuckles. He also has rather calloused hands from working a soldier. On his lower back, Jayden has a tattoo of a dagger with a rose wrapped around it in an attempt to be different from his brother. The dagger itself is covered in pale golds while the rose plant is given pale reds and pinks. His tattoo is similar to the rose and dagger symbol on the book The Dagger & The Rose by Bill Hoard and can be shown here.
Facial wise, Jayden is again similar to his brother Caden without any real differences. His features are rather sharp, from his nose to his rather defined cheeks. His cheeks lead down to a pointed chin. There are no noticeable blemishes on Jayden’s face. He has messy green hair which is rarely properly groomed, instead being hastily captured beneath the fedora often perched on his head. The base of the fedora is an off-white while the band is a deep green. When it arrives to Jayden’s eyes, they tend to be rather noticeable for the beautiful, deep green colour. Frequently, there is a serious expression which crossed Jayden’s face and he remains rather quiet and reserved. He rarely cracks a smile unless in the company of his twin brother, which rarely happens in public. He is also renown for being seen avoiding eye-contact and merely walking away from social interactions.
The clothing Jayden wears is rather flexible considering he is not complainitive about what he wears. He oftentimes wears semi-formal attire, preferring dress shirts, dress pants or jeans. Occasionally, he will drift into wearing more casual wear if the situation requires it; this is similar with formal pieces of clothing. He does consistently wear clothing he is capable of moving in, his soldier occupation. He also wears good quality boots 24/7, most being designed for combat situation. He switches between wearing a green mask or sunglasses, sometimes preferring one over the other.
Access Manipulation -- Mastered The power to open doors by sheer willpower or change their location, allowing the user to escape or even teleport as needed. Doors and access points can even be locked by the user. This ability does not work on the gates of Heaven or Hell nor does it allow for dimensional passageways to be open. Essentially, Jayden is the ultimate lockpick, which allows him to get in and out of locations without having to damage property. By simply waving his hand over the lock, the door will become unlocked or locked. Jayden’s hands are key to using this ability since he must point his hand at the access point. The ability is most evident in his eyes, since if they are hover over a locked surface, they will glow red while if they are hovering over an unlocked surface they glow green. This ability can only work if Jayden is within a 20-meter radius of the door, otherwise all effects will fade. As of teleportation, Jayden needs to enter a door or window and enter through another one or else it will fail, furthermore, he has to have a clear imagining of the location. He can teleport just about anywhere as a result.
Enhanced Strength -- Advanced This ability allows the user to access strength above their species, allowing for supernatural accomplishments. Strength is an ability which Jayden strives in and enjoys considering he believes it is another defining trait of himself. He is capable of accessing incredible feets of strengths, allowing for Jayden to break through stone and metal with his bare hands. This even allows him to throw things at high velocities, overpower those weaker than himself and ultimately break bones and arm others without a weapon. Unfortunately, this can stress his muscles if Jayden overuses the ability, his muscles can become sore. This could result in strain on Jayden’s muscles, even going lengths to possible bedridden home for a few days. After using the ability extensively, he should rest to avoid strain or exhaustion.
Telepathy -- Mastered An ability that allows the user to communicate through their head, planting thoughts in the mind of another and reading theirs. Frequently, this ability has been used between Jayden and his twin, allowing for them to converse without speaking. The ability became nifty to avoid eavesdroppers and radio interruptions. These two commonly use the ability to organized heists, Caden being the brains behind the screen while Jayden listens to his warnings and direction. Jayden can contact people in a 8 mile radius under normal circumstances, but he must know their name and they cannot have a psychic shield. With his brother, this doubles since they are mutually telepathic and contact one another frequent. This ability does not take much energy, but needs a little focus.
backstory
once there was two, but the world would only know of one. they would become a single person to the world while knowing there were two.
On a warm summer day in the Milton household was when Jayden was born alongside his twin Caden. They were identical twins, both possessing extremely similar physical features. Their parents could easily be fooled by the similar appearances of the twins. When they were born, Caden and Jayden were nearly inseparable; they were brothers and best friends. Their parents, being perfectionist and those with high expectations, limiting their interactions with others. As a result, Jayden tended to cling to his twin, the young boy becoming rather shy and quiet from a young age. He never interacted with other children, frequently staying by Caden’s side rather than on his own. In their family, homeschooling was common with the extremely perfectionist views of their parents; they did not want to show their children until they were perfect. An expectation in the Milton family was to be skilled with both soldier and informant work, thus they were trained hard. There were unfortunately some troubles for Jayden.
Unlike his brother, Jayden struggled in educational exercises, his parents refusing to explain it the way he needed to hear it. The curriculum proved better suited for Caden, but the other twin failed immensely. They refused to explain the material in a different manner, worsening Jayden’s struggle to comprehend exactly what his parents were teaching. At a young age, Jayden felt alienated from his parents for their ignorance and lack of understanding to his method of learning. They were horrible people in his opinion, too fixated on gaining perfection to truly understand their children. There were times he could understand some material, but he frequently struggled in school. As a result, Jayden only did the bare minimum to pass, much to his parent’s dismay. Furthermore, he was oftentimes pleas for his brother’s help, even attempting to try and convince Caden to help him cheat on tests. Their close connection persuaded his brother to agree, thus Jayden never learned and instead inquired Caden for answers to avoid failing. His brother was a crutch to his struggles in education and became the person Jayden wished he had as a teacher. Fortunately, in combat training he could strive with a fluent ease. Fighting appeared to come naturally to Jayden as he enjoyed the training, resulting in him become physically strong at a young age.
After a while began the thievery, Jayden remembering an evening where his mother set a shiny brooch on the table. It was covered in various gems and glittered whenever the light touched the golden surface. When his mother went to fetch his father, Jayden snatched it from the table and stashed it away with no intentions of giving it back. Naturally, his mother panicked and promptly realized Jayden was the culprit. Her voice echoed through the house while she marched to his room, finding her property and punishing her young son. The punishments were never severe, but Jayden was left in a dark room, surprised by authority his mother displayed, although, he never learned his lesson. There was nothing to do, but search, where he found a box to be on the closet shelf. The boy was curious, but could not manage to reach the shelf at the time and opted to ignore it. He began digging through the closet before finding a box stashed away beneath the pile of blankets and opened it. A broad grin touched Jayden’s cheeks when he found his mother’s crafting equipment. The ribbon was glittery and beautiful, and despite his punishment, the young boy quickly stole it.
Everything was placed back into their spots before Jayden hurried to the chair, stuffing the ribbon in his sweater pocket. When permitted to leave, his parents failed to notice the next attempt at thievery. The success thrilled Jayden as he quickly worked towards finding a location to store his loot. He found an old shoe box and stuffed it into the bottom of the toy chest, a place where his parents rarely ventured. As time went on, the stealing proceeded as Jayden became addicted to becoming the tiny klepto in his parent’s lives. Slowly, he increased the value of his stealing, oftentimes attempting to grab spare change to sneak out and buy sweets from a nearby convenience store. The spoils were shared between himself and his twin, Jayden enjoying the opportunity to indulge in these marvellous discoveries. These were the types of things that would become common in life.
As the children grew, Jayden became more prone to stealing, occasionally sneaking out to use his newly acquired access manipulation to steal from others. He stole a variety of things, from simple trinkets he found interesting to valuable items which he could sell. Oftentimes, he stole money which would not be recognized by the owner and shared the funds with his brother. While Jayden was greedy, he cared about Caden enough to consider sharing his reaps with his beloved twin. They were extremely close still, Jayden being prone to allowing his brother to talk; instead, he tended to rely on their telepathic communication to convey his thoughts, similar to when he was a kid. Around the age of 18 arrived time to join the Assembly of Phantoms, which became an anxious notion to Jayden. He failed in terms of information gathering, his shyness and generally quiet behaviour made interacting with others difficult. Furthermore, he was not necessarily tech savvy and would frequently discover already weeks found information about the enemy.
Informant wise, he was absolutely useless… however, from the perspective of a soldier he was magnificent. From years of training and dedication to sports, exercising and a healthy lifestyle, Jayden was fit. Opponents were a breeze on most occasions, the young man being renown for breaking bones because of the intensity of his strength. In terms of better occupation, him and his brother were opposites from the beginning, thus arrived Caden’s ingenious idea. Instead of accomplishing both tasks as expected by their parents, they would split the work with Jayden working as the soldier while Caden searched the information. Everything about the agreement felt perfect, although, Jayden possessed some hesitance the notion of pretending to be one was mentioned. Unfortunately, without the assistance of his brother, Jayden knew he could never accomplish the rigorous jobs of being an informant.
Their parents were displeased with their decision to work together; Miltons were supposed to be independent and capable of working both tasks. Any complaints they registered were often ignored by Jayden, the young man already thoroughly aware he failed in terms of information gathering. They would continue to complain, but each would fall upon deaf ears when it arrived to Jayden. After a year of working in the Assembly of Phantoms, his brother Caden joined him on the stealing front, allowing for the twins to orchestrate larger plans. Their teamwork was perfection with Caden handling the information gathering and accessing security cameras while Jayden would enter the building using his access manipulation to silently wander the halls. They were an incredible duo, but only Jayden’s name would be slapped onto the news reports while his brother remained in the shadows. They would be the same person, ultimately making it difficult for people to believe Jayden was normal.
It was believed Jayden had multiple personality disorder on account of how differently he acted compared to his rather social and flirtatious brother. No longer did his identity solely belonged to him, which left an off-putting feeling in Jayden’s gut and a frown on his face. He wanted something other than the scars to differentiate himself from Caden, thus resulted in his decision to get the tattoo on his lower back. A dagger with a rose wrapped around, subtle, but perhaps the symbol of a fighter with a surprising soft personality. He never informed his brother of the tattoo, it remaining his only secret and cherished mark; the only difference. As months passed, Jayden proceeded with his criminal actions despite the possibility of facing punishment.
