The Mysterious Newbies
I'm jumping around a bit so this is my version of them first joining the Chaos Army. I realized not many say how and just immediately make him commander so here ya go.

Chaos made a mistake.
He chose a dyslexic person to read the names of his new recruits. Ha. You can only imagine his embarrassment when he recruited them and realized the mistake.
His recruits didn't mind of course, and decided to keep their names as just that- Lathia, Indoci, and Spereus.
He had found them in a hidden cave within a trench. Spereus had been keeping watch and attacked Chaos the moment he walked through the entrance. Chaos was fine since Spereus didn't kill him before finding out his intentions. Admittedly, it was confusing at first since their names weren't said correctly, but it worked out in the end as things clicked into place.
When they arrived everyone's heads turned towards the door they came through. Chaos introduced them as experienced, demigod warriors and just like with others before, welcomed them to the Chaos Army.

As the three cousins settled in, they kept to themselves. Everyone was fine with that, they had their own things to do and their own friends to do them with.
Lyrana herself had her own friends but she wasn't fine with people just ignoring them.
Right now she was in the process of convincing her brother, Firone, to join her in getting to know them. Firone, on the other hand, was refusing.
"Come on. Please!"
"I said no."
"But-"
"No, Lyrana. They probably just want to be left alone. They haven't been trying to be social, so just let them be."
"Maybe they're just shy?" Ok, so maybe going to Firone was a bad idea.
"You're doubting that yourself." Yeah he is really a downer, definitely a mistake going to him. At that moment Lyrana decided to go alone. Everyone always followed Firone since he was the leader of our little group. So if she couldn't convince him, no one would go, no one but her at least.
"Fine. I'll do it by myself."
"Don't come crying to me if they're mean to you." That's a lie. Firone was always there for his sister. If anything he would go beat the crap out of them for making his sister upset.
He watched closely as Lyrana approached the cousins.

"Hi!" Lyrana greeted the trio.
"What do you want?" Indoci snapped. Lyrana was a bit startled by the younger boy's rudeness, but then Lathia cut in.
"Death Breath! Don't be rude!"
"Can you blame me? My day's been really sucky so far, do you expect me to be all rainbows and butterflies?!"
"No, but you should at least be polite."
"Polite? Ha. What was that fight you got into with Zoë?"
"That was years ago!"
"Oh. Then what about with that guy David eh? Spereus here had to calm him down."
"Still, that's no way to treat a lady. You're just proving that part of the reason why I joined the hunters!"
They continued bickering and Lyrana just watched amused. That is, until Spereus decided to speak up.
"Excuse my cousins. But why are you here?"
"Um... I thought that maybe we could be friends. I've noticed that not many have been around you so..." Lyrana was struggling with the words and thought it was awkward, but then she heard a chuckle. Spereus had already noticed her distress, but chose to let her continue.
"You know what I mean!" She looked down in an attempt to cover her reddening face. That made Spereus laugh softly.
"Yeah, I do know what you mean and you're welcome to be our friend. But don't advertise it, I rather like our reputation as the mysterious newbies."
"Of course," Lyrana giggled. "We wouldn't want to ruin that." Spereus smiled and they chatted like old friends, while Lathia and Indoci continued to bicker. They made sure not to be seen by the other recruits, though Firone was still watching his sister.
Soon it became time to do back to their duties, Spereus had to intervene in his cousins' bickering and Lyrana went back to her brother. She had to admit they weren't what she expected, so she hoped that the others would actually try to get the right idea one them.
"So?" Firone inquired.
"So what?"
"How were they?"
"What do you want to know?"
"Are they really emotionless like everyone says? We're they mean to you? Cause if if they were I'm going right-"
"Calm down, Firone. They were actually nice. The younger one was a bit rude bit he had good reason to, a bird-type species pooped on him and he was late so he got punished for it. That was Indoci. Lathia and him were arguing the whole time, so the only one that I got a decent conversation with was Spereus. He was awesome. Did you know that he listens to music from Earth like I do?..." She went on to tell Firone about all the things that she and Spereus conversed about all through the time it took for them to reach their quarters.
Firone was enlightened that his sister was able to make friends.... and that he wouldn't have to beat up anyone. He'd go meet them in the morning, and find that they would respect each other's strength.
Due to a custom in Firone and his sister's culture, a test of strength was vital when making a new friend. Fortunately, Spereus obliged with little hesitation, he won of course. Their friendship was based on that. While Spereus and Firone shared moves that they've learned over the years, Spereus' cousins decided to have more of a conversation with Lyrana. Unlike last time, Indoci was in a better mood.
Firone and Lyrana eventually introduced them to Jkron and his girlfriend Saraiah, then lastly Twrand.
Jkron and Spereus at first had a 'mutual' hate since Saraiah was flattered by Spereus' courtesy, and Jkron didn't like that. But they eventually made up... after a few pranks and 'accidental' trips.
Lathia, Lyrana, and Saraiah all became a girl group so Indoci felt like the neglected cousin again. That was until he befriended Twrand. It turns out they had much in common, they both experienced the Lotus Casino, though Twrand was older when he got in. They've both gone through that sense of rejection and that made them compatible.
Overall they became great friends and continued to be friends until...

Hi it's me again. I've decided to update while I'm procrastinating on doing my homework. Honestly I think I'm going to do this at least once a week. I have a lot of projects due this month so maybe... but then again I like to procrastinate a lot, so I guess I'll still be able to.
Anyway, people I hope you like this. And if it's not too late have a good day/night.
