[The four of you have walked deep into the city, into places that start to look unfamiliar to you. As they walk, it's like a gradual transition into a city that has not been destroyed and is not being repaired by prinnies. In fact, you won't see a single Prinny at all, and if you compare this area to any map of Oceanside city you won't be able to find it.
Ahead of you is two paths: one, bright and cheerful, leads to an area with a high school and college; the other, a shadowed alley that looks off-putting, leads towards warehouses near the docks.
The four of you instinctively know that only two people can take each path. Who do you team up with, and where do you go?]

...we kinda took a wrong turn somewhere?
[Oh, welp, if only we had a scout to go ahead and tell us the best path. Sigrun looks at the paths, nodding]
Guess this is where we split. Are the phones working, so we stay in touch?
[She asks that to everyone but also takes out the phone to find out]

Hmm... Is this how Nico and Whisper ended up in Las Vegas?
[she will take out her phone to check, too.
well, assuming they have their full inventory. do they have their full inventory and ability? help.]

Weird. Next time I'll keep a better eye on my surroundings.

[Sigrun suddenly feels the absence of all of her weaponry and powers. She pats her back, surprised, and tries to find her dagger's holster, but it just...isn't there!
Shenanigans truly are afoot. No way she'd misplace that all!]
...okay, we're on our own. We probably will stumble upon each other later. All of you be careful, whatever path you choose.
[Sigrun, due to being the first in the posting order, waits to be dragged into an alleyway by Saya see everyone else's decisions about what path they'll take]

I don't think they even thought to. Nico said it felt like Oceanside wasn't really important back then? Our perception might... also be altered.
[so, that's gonna be fun to deal with if it happens. saya looks between the two paths, thinking... and then she turns to sigrun as the person she's spoken to the most out of this group.]
Sigrun, let's go this way.
[reaches for her hand on affection week to drag her down a dark alleyway! normal things to do.]

Yeah, it sure does.
[ And then Saya goes to split off with Sigrun, leaving the other way. He looks at her, making a gesture towards the high school and college. ]
Let's get a movin' this way, alright?
[ He'll begin his long strides, after a light tap on her shoulder, in said direction! ]

[Sigrun sure lets herself be dragged off by Saya, clutching Saya by the hand, and before they go into the alleyway she waves at Tama and Axel without stopping her strides]
Make sure Axel doesn't get in too much trouble!
[Tama has been designated the responsible one in Sigrun's eyes, apparently. Byyyye]

[ oh well.
tama will just watch sigrun get dragged down a dark alley by a quynn character™, which i'm sure is totally fine. she even waves. ]
Bye Sigrun, bye Saya. Don't get into too much trouble yourselves!
[ she makes no promises on the axel front. this man oozes chaos. ]
I doubt we're gonna get out of here without moving forewards, so. Let's go!

Bye, Tama! Bye, Axel! Don't die, okay?
[honey,]

[Axel and Tama will find themselves at a high school. Both of them are now in uniforms (male or female, their choice) and sitting in class together. The other students in the class go about like normal, acting like there is nothing strange about having two adults posing as students.
They both have been given new powers that are somewhat related to each other: Tama has the ability to see the future in mirrors, and Axel has a special camera that takes pictures of future events. For both of them though, the future sight comes with one heavy caveat: the only futures they ever see are disaster-riddled ones. Deaths by accident, earthquakes and typhoons, Assaults, and so forth. Not all visions have death in them, but most do.
This is especially important for Axel, who has foretold his own death via pictures. They both know that he is destined to die on his next birthday, unless something changes. They can't go to the police, nobody would believe their story. All they have is each other and their wits to keep Axel alive.
But they do have their predictions too. Knowing when and where a disaster is going to happen means that you can do what you can to prevent it. Which is exactly what the Breakers do: stop these disasters from occurring in the first place.
Are they ready for their first task together?]

[Saya and Sigrun have found themselves in an entirely different location. They will suddenly be wearing one of two outfits (their choice as to who gets which), and they will be standing in front of a man silhouetted by light. You do not know his identity, but you have been working for him for years now.
You two are Enforcers, but not in the traditional sense of the word. Your boss can see the future branching out in front of him, and he has already picked out which one is the best timeline for the world, the one with the best outcome for humanity. He has tasked you two with carrying out his orders to keep the world on track, so to speak. Your job is to Enforce this outcome, in the ways he tells you are necessary.
He takes a sip of the glass of brandy he has in his hand, and then he speaks to both of you.]
I have a job for you today. Are you ready?

[It's all so sudden! Yet at the same time, once Sigrun blinks and takes a moment...somehow it feels familiar. Like she has been at it for years, and for this man.
.......
Well, may as well nod. She salutes, dusting off her black coat]
As usual, I am!
[Time for an adventure]

[ Something about this feels familiar.
Nah, just kidding. We're not getting too Kingdom Hearts up in here.
There is sure some disorientation on his end, but he thinks he's ready. There is really no other choice. Preventing disasters sounds like it's really up his alley too. ]
Well, looks like we've gotten ourselves into a weird situation. But...it could be worse, right?
[ He's also wearing a male's uniform because he's the kind of guy who doesn't leave his legs bare. ]

[saya looks around curiously, a little jarred by the way this all seems so familiar and yet— hm. well, that's a problem for later. for now, there are more important things to focus on...? she isn't a fan of the fact that she can't make out the man's features, but at this point, that's just business as usual.
unlike sigrun, she doesn't salute. instead, she hums and clasps her hands behind her back, tilting her head to the side. she is wearing the red dress, her hair done up nicely because i said so.]
What is it?

[ is any of this for real? or not?
well. tama's in the girl's version of the uniform because it looks so cute. yaaay. still, weird that no one has clocked the two grown ass people in school uniforms pretending everything is fine and normal at this school. ]
No kidding. It's like an echo in my own mind -- my memories and whatever's here as well.
[ she has the urge to find and mirror and look in it, like she's confirming what she can and can't do but the visions themselves would probably be disturbing. so, she stays where she is for now. ]

[They are given the descriptions of two people: a red-haired man and a white-haired man. They are also given a location and a specific time.]
The white-haired man is going to try and kill the red-haired man by stabbing him. It's important that the red-haired man survive at all costs.
Do whatever you feel is necessary to get the outcome needed.

[Yeah, it's almost guaranteed that it will be disturbing. Such is the life of a precog.
This is math class by the way. The teacher is very boring and drones on and on about something regarding trig. I don't math, please don't ask for details. But at one point the teacher will call on Tama:]
Do you know the answer here?

[Oh, my. Looks like they're going to have to ensure a life is safe. Sigrun nods, and tries to ask a question:]
Everything is fine as long as he survives this one attempt? Nothing else to worry about past that?

Hmm...
[so the white haired man can just straight up die? cool.]
Do we get any tools for this job?
[since... they don't have their powers or inventory...]

Yes. Stop this attempt and he will be fine afterwards.
[He didn't say to kill the white-haired man but you know. Dead men can't stab.]
And you may have any tool you need Just be aware that you will be going on school property and they will check you for weapons if you enter through the front door.
