BATTLE LOVERS

Episode 1: The Invitation

The crisp autumn air swirled fallen leaves around Sua's feet as she walked towards her grandfather's house. The old Victorian mansion, nestled amidst a sprawling garden, had always held a comforting familiarity for her. It was a place where time seemed to slow down, where the scent of freshly baked cookies and the warmth of her grandfather's embrace always welcomed her home.

Today, however, a sense of anticipation thrummed through her veins. A letter, addressed in her grandfather's elegant script, had arrived earlier that day, promising an adventure unlike any she had ever experienced.

She pushed open the heavy oak door, the sound echoing through the silent hallway. The scent of old books and polished wood filled her senses, a comforting aroma that always reminded her of her grandfather's study.

She found him seated by the fireplace, a book in his hand, his silver hair framing a face etched with wisdom and kindness.

"Grandpa," she greeted him, her voice filled with warmth.

He looked up, his eyes twinkling with a mischievous glint. "Sua, my dear. You've arrived."

He gestured towards a chair beside him, and she settled into the plush velvet. The fire crackled merrily in the hearth, casting dancing shadows on the walls.

"I have something special for you," he said, his voice a gentle rumble. He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a letter, sealed with a wax stamp bearing a stylized heart.

"What is it, Grandpa?" Sua asked, her curiosity piqued.

"Read it," he said, his smile widening.

She carefully broke the seal and unfolded the letter. The words, written in her grandfather's elegant script, sent a shiver down her spine:

"Dear Sua,

I've planned a special scavenger hunt for you. The clues will lead you to a treasure beyond your wildest dreams. But be warned, the path is not for the faint of heart. Only the truest of hearts will find their way to the prize.

Love, Grandpa"

"A scavenger hunt?" Sua exclaimed, her eyes widening in surprise. "But what's the prize?"

Her grandfather chuckled, a deep, rumbling sound that filled the room. "That, my dear, is for you to discover. But I assure you, it's a prize worth seeking."

Just then, the doorbell rang. Her grandfather's smile widened, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "Ah, it seems you have company."

Sua looked up, her heart skipping a beat. Standing at the door was Eunhyuk, her childhood best friend, his face a mixture of curiosity and concern.

"Eunhyuk," she greeted him, a smile gracing her lips.

"Hey, Sua," he replied, his eyes lingering on the letter in her hand. "What's going on?"

"Grandpa sent me an invitation," she said, her voice filled with excitement. "A scavenger hunt."

Eunhyuk's brow furrowed in confusion. "A scavenger hunt? But what's the prize?"

"That's the mystery," Sua replied, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "But Grandpa wouldn't send me on a scavenger hunt for just any prize. It must be something special."

As if on cue, the doorbell rang again. This time, it was Lohan, a charming newcomer who had recently moved to their town. His eyes were bright with a playful glint, his smile radiating with confidence.

"Hey, what's going on?" he asked, his voice a smooth baritone.

"Grandpa sent me an invitation," Sua said, her voice filled with excitement. "A scavenger hunt."

Lohan's eyes widened with interest. "A scavenger hunt? Count me in!"

Eunhyuk looked at Lohan, a hint of apprehension in his voice. "Lohan, what are you talking about?"

Lohan's smile widened, his confidence radiating. "Well, I'm not going to let Sua go on a scavenger hunt alone, am I? Especially if there's a prize involved."

Sua laughed, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Lohan, you're a natural at this."

Lohan winked, his voice playful. "I'm a bit of a thrill-seeker, you know. I love a good challenge."

Eunhyuk shook his head, a hint of frustration in his voice. "This is going to be interesting."
