History

At some point, the organization discovered highly intelligent twin male children by the name of Al Bowen and Jeff Bowen. These twins had more knowledge and sheer mental power than any adult thus making them frightening adolescents who were abandoned by their school as well as their own parents. These traits, however, intrigued the Egrigori who took them in and attempted to reintegrate them into society by enrolling them in the Chapel Program. However, the Chapel Twins intelligence only continued to increase and they began to produce state of the art military weaponry which the Egrigori kept as their secret supply and used for their own cause.

After the discovery of the ARMS children, the Chapel Twins volunteered for the task of capturing them where they deployed their combat cyborgs Plus and Minus for the task. (Episode: Counterattack) However, they engaged in an attack on the ARMS childrens school leading to the organization dispatching Keith to eliminate them as they had become a liability. During the encounter, Keith killed Jeff Bowen but spared his twin brother Al Bowen in amusement when the ARMS began to protect him. As a result, Al Bowen became determined in bringing about the destruction of the Egrigori and allied with the ARMS to achieve this goal. (Episode: Trust)
