Plot

Three centuries ago, US authorities hunted witches, which led to a big conflict. As a result, the witches went to a truce, agreeing to lead their own elite squad of fighters with magical abilities. Their tasks included the struggle with all the unknown. And now the time has come when this “unknown” began to attack civilians.

Just at this time, three girls joined the ranks of the soldiers, who were forced to become one team. Raelle does not have good physical skills, but is fluent in the medical part. Abigail is extremely hardy and strong, but not always able to learn more subtle sciences. As for Tally, the girl is able to curb any subject.

At first, the relationship between them did not work out, and Abigail even wanted to move to another group – she was so annoyed that Raelle was unable to withstand the battle. Raelle herself openly hated Abigail. The fact is that last year Raelle’s mother was brutally murdered, and Abigail’s mother led the detachment in which she was then. This was the reason for the conflict of their daughters.

Tally tried her best to reconcile her friends. But only a general victory in a vocal lesson could soften their hearts. Then Abigail admitted to Raelle that her mother would never have offended the members of her squad. After this, the relationship between the girls became less tense, but sometimes they came to a conflict.

Tally left her home, quarreling with her mother. Through the fault of the Witch Army of the United States, many people died in their family. But Tally decided that she wants to become one of the soldiers in order to minimize such situations. While Tally deals with family hardships, Raelle falls in love with a 2nd year student, and Abigail meets an old enemy…

In fact, Taylor was much more accommodating than in life.
