Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA8lzSDr0PJ9
Mostly crossovers.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAiPUR7CWyYO
Most were horrible and some were great. Sadly, many were abandoned. They had some interesting concepts and characters. I don’t want them to disappear forever.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAhhprgL87ue
The ones I think I could write for and the ones I desire to write involve Familiar of Zero. In this crossover extravaganza, I’m crossing multiple FoZ fan fics into one story.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAvcCh7eEBRW
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAH8zxNMDEpw
Be sure to comment on any possible improvements and if anyone is OOC. If your character is featured on here and you don’t like it, comment so I can remove/improve them.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAC8pDZtJbzl
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
708Please respect copyright.PENANATx335nV6jj
I’ll try to keep faithful to the original fan fic but some things need to change. I’m crossing some tricky-to-fit stories and characters.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA6NxVuHlv3t
Finally, I own nothing in this story. They belong to their respective owners. That being said, I will straight up rip off lines from everything. Makes things easier and more authentic.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAPmsR2kCLvu
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAee5Qr0TfXe
708Please respect copyright.PENANAz5H4p6KKhw
It was that time of the year again, Springtime Summoning Festival. The time when the second years of Tristain Magical Academy finally summon their own servant, a familiar. Most of the students were nothing short of excited! That’s because today they will finally have a loyal servant that would cater to their every whim. They would perform for them to the best of their ability.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwF9iZE9oom
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAfGcvY5lSif
A summoned familiar mirrors their master’s personality and elemental affinity. Who knows what hidden secrets their familiars may accidentally reveal to everyone?
708Please respect copyright.PENANAnjtsoOhxMM
Despite that though, their anxiety was overtaken by excitement. One by one, every student summoned their enteral companion. Some got impressive summons such as a salamander and even an azure dragon.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0VdhGS81jq
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAV7O6zl3LWi
Well, all but one.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAebx3I1ygo0
The small petite girl with strawberry pink hair, Louise Valliere. Secretly, she was desperately hoping to be actually forgotten for once. For she is not like everyone else.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA9KRxgODWdJ
She is Louise the Zero, the only one incapable of using magic. But after today, she will be known by a different name. Which name, will depend on her choices in the coming days.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAZHmME8DuDv
But before fate has its way, a balding middle-aged gentleman put a crack in her hopes of being forgotten. His name is Jean Colbert, the professor presiding over this future historic event.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA72JGOpAIaC
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAHNajFtyaqf
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAfksZozZrCU
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAbruQpwYjtU
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANA7rsS0segfN
Louise, in her hiding spot behind the student body, grumbled about her rotten luck. To be called out by her of all people. But it doesn’t matter, she has to do this. If she succeeds, it will prove once and for all that she is a mage.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYnkBxGMhM2
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAnTBObNX7WQ
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
708Please respect copyright.PENANAT3GVUDz6FC
“Louise the zero.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAej8zh0wlOs
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0GPknjWQal
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAytjVZEOkoI
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAjmCUUkMQXQ
She says while petting her red-scaled salamander with a flaming tail. The background insults and chatter she can stand, but she won’t stay silent when it comes to Kirche.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA8Xtevki5tE
Louise: “Well of course!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAHio6yec9a8
She says that, but it’s all hot air if she fails. This is it, her last chance to prove herself. She grips her wand tight and prays for this to work.
708Please respect copyright.PENANARvT1VzSfk0
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAq5HlkDfQ45
Louise: “My servant that exists somewhere in this vast universe! My divine, beautiful, wise, and powerful servant, heed my call! I wish for this servant from the very bottom of my heart! Answer my guidance and APPEAR!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAP53Db4cspz
“And so the die is cast.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAISCc0g6Uq1
Louise ignores the sultry feminine voice in her head and raises her wand. She twirls it before striking down with the power of all her hopes and dreams.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAl8KNX5b0kW
…
…
708Please respect copyright.PENANALJIhXFTzAm
Silence, that’s all there was. For that briefest of eternities, all was still. But the new reality birthed here demanded expansion. In the next instant, a large explosion rippled through the grass courtyard.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAaTphK0fXzg
Unlike all of the previous ones, this was bigger and nearly forced everyone onto their knees. But the storm did pass and all that was left was a cloud of smoke.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAThUQUeVr6R
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAZZCIn1Iprp
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANANjyUAUitRZ
Many, but not all, are of the same opinion. They started to laugh at the clear failure of their resident Zero. That was until every familiar in the area started to shiver and shake.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAsvggOAjOO0
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAtJ60uZ68CX
Tabitha: “What?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeiHmrYYKJp
Her question brought Slyphid’s head around to look her in the eyes. With their intimate bond, Slyphid was able to respond telepathically.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0fAkqxuXxq
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ7Y6R2lv4
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
708Please respect copyright.PENANAWODaWb0sXt
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAm5Tjw8ICQ7
As for Louise, she couldn’t hear their insults, something was…wrong. Something was missing from her, she felt incomplete. Whatever happened, it’s related to the shadows within the smoke.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAfG5eUByjMm
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
708Please respect copyright.PENANABc9PfIgSyV
First, it was a low growl of something, bigger than they ever thought possible. Then came the heavy tension in the air, reality itself seemed to shiver from the amount of power gathered in one spot.
708Please respect copyright.PENANASEiJxRpHX7
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAgpJHLS2nRn
One was a voluptuous woman with long silver hair tied up at the end. She also sports an impressive wardrobe fit for a noble. Her most striking feature was her sapphire eyes that are looking at her fellow familiars with mixed emotions.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA1OOfLnjUfJ
The next one had an even more sensual body but with red lace lingerie and red long straight hair. She seems to be sleeping on the grass peacefully despite all the chaos.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA34XpSqw1vE
Finally, the most distressing was an unconscious injured boy. He had a dark green shirt with black jeans, black pull-on shoes, and black fingerless gloves. He had the strangest set of dark green glasses they ever seen. A band stretched from one side to the other securing them to his head firmly. The tinted black lenses didn’t let anyone see his eyes.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAaHs2UBSw9s
He also had some strange black earmuffs with steel rods and a black bag with straps holding it to his back. His skin was fine olive and his hair was silver, like the first one.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAHwnzwEpV9W
They would’ve mocked Louise for summoning a commoner, a whore, and a strange near-death child. But the one that caught everyone’s attention was, of course, the dragon.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAMrzpCZlS3M
Unlike the other dragons, this one more resembled a wyvern. Its front limbs were wings instead of proper legs. Despite that, its power couldn’t be understated. The silver-haired woman kept a close eye on the dragon as if her slender body could do something if it acted.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAHwFszLeNXu
Considering the madness of the situation, it’s forgivable that they didn’t notice a black snake slithering away from the danger zone. Nor did they notice the puddle of writhing worms on the ground eager for something to come close.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwx3wp8jlQq
For a while, no one said a word. Tensions were high and death was a given if something went wrong. Colbert gripped his staff until he bled and students backed away slowly.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZTB3GktpZ
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
708Please respect copyright.PENANApo6ldZsaA3
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANATlXWGSJ0x4
…
…708Please respect copyright.PENANAtb0rhbGCJx
708Please respect copyright.PENANAePFfO8OzON
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA60QZQqvyJX
The silver-haired one held up a hand as if to say “hold on a minute.” She pulled a ring out of her pocket and started speaking to the dragon in the same strange language.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAfN5QFD1ztT
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeCbcPHrNku
“Okay, who summoned us?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAjDgEzMUckE
All eyes went to the stunned Louise. Clearly, she has to take responsibility for…whatever this is. Any excitement she might have had for summoning a dragon went out the window along with sanity.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAP5lQe56fFF
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”708Please respect copyright.PENANAVo8khL1OxJ
708Please respect copyright.PENANA37inCRweNa
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAqF5pE3wdw7
Tensions lower and everyone starts to process what Louise the Zero somehow accomplished. She summoned a dragon and more. Commoners sure but still multiple familiars.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAGPbK0tbCSK
708Please respect copyright.PENANAi8ER0ZW2dg
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAJElM0ZC10Z
708Please respect copyright.PENANALyeaf7e3zt
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAXO1mwYDHxz
As they do, he takes a better look at his injuries. He has light pieces of steel-plated armor torn and twisted around his body. As well as blotches of blood on his hair and clothes. If it wasn’t for the slight breathing, he would think he’s dead.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAScBRm5RWog
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANApodnKxwBFl
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAXsROPUAjUw
A deadpan female voice echoed out. The red-haired commoner slowly sits up and scans the area with her squinted scarlet eyes. She then looks down at her lingerie-clad body, then at the ground, before turning to glare at everyone.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmlJhceklOH
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAJrNfpOgREQ
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAQhztjzu908
She sighs.708Please respect copyright.PENANA4OEbf3kDyN
708Please respect copyright.PENANATC7YbIO86x
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAX0mjIXTyws
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”708Please respect copyright.PENANANlOTgDINGo
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUZq6xz6LEr
Raskreia: “Sure, if you’re going to explain to us what in the nine hells is going on here exactly and where we are?”708Please respect copyright.PENANAC3tTkHKYpX
708Please respect copyright.PENANAK0TqrHTNPs
At this, Louise answers before the man could.708Please respect copyright.PENANABIKKJ5ighg
708Please respect copyright.PENANAIHEI9pmmsm
Louise: “You’re here because I summoned you all to be my familiar with the summon servant spell, and I am your master now.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAxH58AAbPNW
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.708Please respect copyright.PENANATfxAnUE0Zh
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYDoE4eSqO3
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”708Please respect copyright.PENANAiXEtTnOrdQ
708Please respect copyright.PENANAnZvnnGXjsY
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”708Please respect copyright.PENANAeshQRsdk3i
708Please respect copyright.PENANARM9t7VsOz5
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.708Please respect copyright.PENANAlUkDjb1GYq
708Please respect copyright.PENANATDQ23T64qg
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmAY3iHkfIY
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUEavPsXfCm
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAISEHwsvjuf
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAC3KnhviNkd
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
708Please respect copyright.PENANANRmq0l3MNi
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAtCSg3y9vcG
“Neither have I, strange.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZTGsdM4UA
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA4U5FiyGsfH
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAAdZrd8d23i
Louise: “The bonding ritual is a sacred ritual performed here at Tristian’s Academy of Magic. It’s where the mage who summoned a new familiar casts a spell to bind the two of them together. The animal, or in this animals, summoned becomes the mage’s servant. Because I summoned you all I get to bind you all to me.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAnpaKPYwZYK
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.708Please respect copyright.PENANALyNYBjuI2O
708Please respect copyright.PENANAlFFdpkzsZ3
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”708Please respect copyright.PENANAa75HL9BfNM
708Please respect copyright.PENANAY16MCnhSiP
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUnkGS5rsWQ
But that thought quickly faded away when the dragon growled. It drew itself up by stretching its wings down and glared at Louise.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAr357wEtb9h
Dovahkiin: “So you kidnap us from our homes and that gives you the right to make us your slave? We get no say in whether we get bound to you all. Is that right?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0PZ6eLVzul
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAsamNVmAZjC
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAbUSYIkZkpL
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA1ECs47Jmb4
Colbert: “We never summoned anything intelligent before or this many at the same time. There are no records of such an event happening in all of our lore. Because of that, we have no way to send you back.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAzTKucaUcgA
The dragon awkwardly walked around them. As if she had been sitting around for a long time and her legs had fallen asleep. They didn’t seem to notice the puddle of worms shaking violently at knowing it can’t go home.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAp9Fa3J2m7c
Dovahkiin: “I for one refuse to become anyone’s slave. I simply want to return to the life I lived before this all occurred.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAWUq4S2fmY0
Raskreia: “As for me, I don’t want to get branded. But I’ll still stick around for a while. It’s not like I have anything better to do anyway.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAWvDUvZgqT8
Raskreia: ‘Besides, I can leave anytime I want. Might as well have fun in this new world. And if Dovahkiin is staying, I’ll stay. Her strange view of the world is interesting.’708Please respect copyright.PENANAh8mseD2rJF
708Please respect copyright.PENANAEiC9kCF3yU
Louise felt a flash of terror. The one she wanted the most is dead set on not becoming her familiar. Snickers and chatter softly erupt from the student body.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAE2RsfU3g2b
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAymJl60caA7
The redhead smelt the anger, disappointment, agony even, reeking from the shrinking form of her summoner. She knows that Louise is suffering from the mockery and rejection.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAvQmvBnTnkE
She can sense the power within Louise is like a dying star ready to blast into a supernova. But her control over it is minuscule and pathetic.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2St2qLf96
Yet the students all around mock her for it. But what if someone knew of her potential? The world would definitely abuse and use her for it.708Please respect copyright.PENANAAcpRnEYCHG
708Please respect copyright.PENANADIUhs0cxbC
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.708Please respect copyright.PENANA6iCB9MSoSt
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0KmY8sEvQH
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAQiJwJ8q0Ug
Almost everyone blinked in surprise and incredulity at the whore’s pledge to the zero. Even Louise was stunned by it, if not a bit disappointed. Many students scoffed and snickered but the most surprising response was from the dragon.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA9SYmqjDO2B
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYgazHJwsm1
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmE15elebLi
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
708Please respect copyright.PENANA7UMAtji9Bv
“I have my own reasons.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA452Sn0VEBF
The dragon blew out a hot gust of wind before leaving the subject alone. It’s not her place to force her out of her decision.
708Please respect copyright.PENANANzRyBf5buB
Everyone else however looked at the exchange with immense curiosity. Isn’t that redhead just some commoner whore? What did the dragon see that they failed to?
708Please respect copyright.PENANATO4IjeOPrw
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAPfJZs5lHUg
Louise reapplies her rule of steel mask and starts towards the redhead. She let out an indignant, resigned huff as she raised her wand.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAlxnpRZtiTH
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAtYIwfUPBJj
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Oh, pentagon that rules the five elements, bless this individual and-”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAXeuInpm8Sv
708Please respect copyright.PENANA10KHeNWpFC
‘Did you think this was it?’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAjQKG8FaOR5
Louise tried to ignore that strange feminine voice but this time…she couldn’t. She let go of her wand and grasped at her chest. As if something beyond this world is trying to reunite with her.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA6BNt4WJqLO
“Louise!?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAJLjswLQ3Wk
Everyone, including the dragon, looks at Louise with concern. Before anyone could go to her and see what’s wrong, something else extraordinary happens.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAiI4csv6fCr
Another explosion erupted behind the redhead but this time it was blue. Everyone braced for the impact in their own way. After a few moments, all that was left was another smoke cloud. But this was different, more ominous. Even the puddle of worms began to move away from the blast zone. It needs to quickly consume something if it wanted to survive what it felt.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAX7htbS0HBJ
Whatever was in the smoke caused all fighters to instinctively tense up. Good thing too, something metallic flew out of the blue smoke cloud. Colbert dodged the flying object and it landed just in front of the student body.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAP2snJBrZHm
Dovahkiin started to growl and glare at the object. The redhead pushed Louise to the ground to protect her from whatever that was. Rask also looked surprised and glared at the obviously dangerous object.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAWDrC9Kd6WQ
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAhmTd9h8PAT
Curiosity overcame the class as the ones nearest to the metallic object had a look. It turns out it wasn’t an object but a golem. It had the physique of a knight. It was large and tall, its entire body was black along with some intricate lines that stretched all across its body.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAv9pILP9R3i
Colbert: “A golem?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAA9UNGElxmM
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUAShU8ip1d
The lines on the golem glowed red and slowly traced itself all the up to its head. A deep humming sound came from the golem. Before anyone could react, the golem lifted up the nearest student by the throat. That student is Guiche, the blond playboy.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAcKWJMbin8b
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAzVTlp9CSp4
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAJIjQnIw1ZV
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAavTAS07u3C
The golem’s fist suddenly split apart and what came out froze his blood. Some sort of blade emerged that had a deep ‘vroom’ sound. Countless smaller blades circulated around the perimeter of the blade.
708Please respect copyright.PENANApcYDDgczoK
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANACaL0h3Gegc
All fighters attempted to save the boy but something else exploded out of the smoke. In an instant, the golem’s hand was severed and Guiche fell to the ground saved.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwKXvZiFR3G
But more than that, the golem had a bright orange diagonal line stretching from its right shoulder all the way down to its hip. The top part of the golem fell on the ground with a heavy thud, frightening all the kids.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAFHEpn11FaU
The stranger that saved Guiche had to be the strangest thing to happen. Her entire skin was a steel grey. She wore a white shirt that seemed to fit just right for her stature and pants that were the color of khaki. She also had those same lines as the golem. Unlike the golem though, the savior had curves and most importantly, hair. Pink hair.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAhSprEPBNGj
Guiche: “L-Louise?”708Please respect copyright.PENANA5yOBmZGR3n
708Please respect copyright.PENANAZWU5fUjPiO
Colbert: “But how?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAoEYSWQfekw
Everyone looked at the Louise we know being cradled by the redhead. She was still clutching her chest while staring at her doppelganger wide-eyed.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAbkijWwYzZJ
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAcHNeNeo0Qh
Murmurs erupted from the crowd but they stopped when the doppelgangerlifted Guiche by his uniform with ease. Once he found his footing he gave a muffled scoff. He was about to give a cheeky reply about how saving him doesn’t mean he’ll stop teasing when suddenly she pushed him.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAo3AV5z8Q9x
Guiche: “How dare-”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAM1a2hbLdXf
He looked back up and to his shock, there was another black golem. This time Louise was standing between him and his death. She crossed her arms forming an X to block but it was unnecessary.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAPO2oLoeDV5
Finally, tired of being background characters, Rask and Dova acted. Dova bit down on the golem. It expected to rip it apart but to its surprise, the golem’s skin didn’t budge much.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAAR9mK68Qtw
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
708Please respect copyright.PENANATYUsOBTXDz
While this was happening, the redhead took Louise to a safe distance. She could help but she wanted to keep Louise safe for now.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYjCC6W30bl
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAPq5jPXxFGc
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAiZDwjJvZBM
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAzboB5IPDuu
Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmEWWW19kSk
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAncHYIF2Xrt
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAn2M2zmDlcN
The students would’ve been shocked that the assumed commoner can use wandless magic if it wasn’t for the fact the golem wasn’t badly harmed.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAncdcujfLrT
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmBybSHoNlg
A thin green ray flies out of her hands, fully intent on turning this thing to ash. But to her surprise, the thing quickly sidesteps the ray.
708Please respect copyright.PENANANXtLcnjTuz
Regardless of the failure, the doppelganger saw this as an opening. The soles of her feet begin to hum loudly before a short explosion propelled her forward. When she was right next to the golem, she propelled her knee upwards sending the golem 300 feet into the sky.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA3uN0yVptlA
Dovah followed it into the sky, awkwardly at first, planning to end it. The doppelganger meanwhile brought her right arm up and transformed it into a circular shield big enough to cover 2/3 of her body.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0vHd5ghcGB
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAN6Uy4itxuy
Raskeria immediately created anti-physical magic shields for herself and the students. If it wasn’t for her honed senses over years of adventures, she would’ve put up the wrong shield.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAY8jRyN998R
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAlpcimzgxbg
Bullets rip the air and hammer the shields. Louise 2 didn’t stay in the same spot however. She pushed against the rain of metal waiting for the right moment.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAFO9CVkudIU
Eventually, the sound of clicking reached her ears. She disassembled her shield and placed her hands behind her with her palms open.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAo4hV0Ypkzp
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
708Please respect copyright.PENANARKCmtf4DXG
Before she could engage the golem, something dropped from the sky hard. The resulting crash pushed aside the rest of the dust. The golem was crushed and the one who did it was another young boy.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAaamUQS8VXk
He had brown boots, dark green jeans, a black tank top and a grey jacket with red streaks. He had shoulder-length black hair that caressed his handsome face.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAU8dvEXRj1d
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA3y8lJs1haQ
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAaFi5NNbO45
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAphE1tLlVqs
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAKEu20TkC6J
Another explosion, bigger than all before erupted from the skies. Shortly after, the airborne golem crashed into the ground causing a deep crater to form. Dovah came down afterward with a few scratches.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYOpfb9IxLJ
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAxQjxDx9lvG
Louise 2 looked around the class hoping to find the person she was looking for. She saw Jean Colbert still shocked by the insanity before him.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA6UgyfAcs3R
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAu2Usm5uw0M
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeRoWFYo4xD
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAq6tHUE6Str
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAHOS6QjE1FD
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAqG0IIF72Co
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA10uC0FMTXS
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAX9XfW6wnti
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAA0EmoUb3si
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAdWdUsNv7IU
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA9t2xnvK6Zh
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAuE0QW8NL72
She’s now carrying an unconscious Louise. The doppelganger would’ve spared a glance at her twin if it wasn’t for the impending danger.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAR6wBRaPC7R
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA30uBGjLB2d
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAN6AbzmSkF9
Louise 2’s eyes widened slightly at that but quicker recomposed herself. She wanted to argue about letting her other half leave with Aeterna before the dragon spoke up.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAxkpUksMCiB
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANARfCDg4pAmY
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYqX2mTTTMK
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUJmQDZAvMK
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAhfCxtLdCPR
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA1Qkm3HTE4M
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANATTGcU7ITkb
They followed her order, many out of fear of the sight before them. The 3 golems slowly but surely collapsed into strange black sand.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAaOphnwsN70
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeQbWVuYT9h
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAnnzpQjz50L
The sand began to move further away from the remaining fighters. When they were far enough it began to rise up and take a new form.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAjS7kYuS8e0
First, the legs were almost as big as Tabitha’s dragon but it didn’t stop there. The body had a wider waist but still retained its linear form. This informed the group that this new golem is more focused on strength than agility.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAnA8IRMTBef
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAs3VkZxYBdZ
Finally, the head was bulky enough to discourage any beheading. But the most important part was the lines connecting to the chest area.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAfAst8dFtvH
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAT1m5KYwiTN
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeW5b34mFl9
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANADbr2ZzarhK
Raskeria: “A what?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmclyCzku1Y
The Ravager reeled back and gave a loud hum that was equal to a beast’s roar. Dovahkiin roared back in a show of will. The combined roar echoed throughout the area, past the academy, and into the distant forest.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA1jHcYGHWeG
Louse unleashed her arm-blades and did one last thing that surprised everyone. Large grey things protruded from her back which hummed while also giving a light pink glow. With that, she started to float.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAMeVDipXWwZ
Jake didn’t let her steal the show by turning his arm into a strange bio-blade. Everyone was ready for the last round of the fight.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA8wka8VnqLS
Louise 2: “Go!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0dLd4dFa6L
With a burst of speed, she charged the Ravager with Jake while giving a war cry. Dovah took to the sky and rained fire and ice onto the machine.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwJGTSTAQSS
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwYHos66ON5
But the most impressive spell was ‘haste’. Jake and Louise felt a new burst of speed that allowed them to dodge the massive blade much easier.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA3h7pkqw5Ko
Jake used the opening to slash the Ravager but the blade shattered on impact. Not losing any steam, Jake switched to a blunt bioweapon that knocked a leg into a pit.
708Please respect copyright.PENANANyJt8o08Fk
Ravager retaliated by swinging the claw hand at Jake. He caught the attack with some difficulty which gave Louise 2 time to unleash various bladed strikes aimed at its chest.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwLzwOGwiMI
Ravager tried to pull its claw hand to defend but Jake held on. It attempted to slice him apart with its blade but Dovah came in and struck it hard with its legs. The colossus toppled over by the force of the blow.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAcAJ1l8gDka
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAh13i3QD0J5
Like before, a green ray flew out of Raskeria’s hands and this time it hit. It fell into the hole and collapsed back into black sand.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAjksLIoeZ5R
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANASLv8CAA8FQ
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUqtTFtE1jC
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAZQk17wjO8k
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUxb0QxTfkz
Raskeria: “My bad.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAJT5CEDuBxQ
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAyL5BjDSJCK
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAq7QkUF0Hsy
The dragon breathed chilling ice into the hole, causing the black sand to solidly freeze. Louise 2 helped by placing her hand behind her lower hip. A circular compartment opened and a black ball landed on to her palm.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAZF4Dyc8W4B
She threw it into the pit and as soon as it hit the frozen black sand, the ball split into 4 quarter spheres. They planted themselves around the hole and created a circular white field of energy.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAKhgDxEh0Vx
Louise 2: “That will buy us a few precious moments. We need to kill this thing fast before it can adapt to everything we can throw at it. Especially since it got hit with magic.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAcER4V8yweb
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAdI29GJPznN
Louise 2: “I don’t know for sure but the Ravager’s ability to adapt is unmatched. If it can adapt to magic then we’re done. So hold it off while I find the weak point and rip it out.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA3vygHugam6
Jake: “…Fine.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAKLvZGRaTPg
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
708Please respect copyright.PENANApr4xlfowVu
After a few agonizing moments, they heard the ice shatter. Shortly after, the light within the hole flickered before dying. A black shadow exploded out of the hold and to everyone’s horror, the Ravager was flying.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0tZQMuTMFr
It looked like a bastardization of a dragon. Mangled mouth, bladed wings, and 4 limbs designed to kill. The 2 front limbs are like before, blade and claw. The back limbs though are machine guns.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAOkYzDXa0Dr
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”708Please respect copyright.PENANACRoOlOLBCg
708Please respect copyright.PENANASSY8Eruw89
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA6Yd7wZQLuv
Raskeria: “Dovahkiin, this is all you. I’ll focus on protecting everyone while you distract it enough to prevent it from firing.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANADu4kRymtOl
Without saying a word, Dovah went into the skies to fight the insult to its kind. Jake started to climb the walls to get a good angle for jumping on the thing.
708Please respect copyright.PENANACn3anxTwly
Despite Dovah’s best efforts though, Ravager wasn’t that bothered by it’s attacks. That was until Dovah started using more unique shouts.
708Please respect copyright.PENANALBpunigBJh
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAhlWUQhCIEg
A large cyclone of wind appeared around Ravager which threw off its flight and aim. Dovah continued battering it with ice breath. Eventually, the Ravager turned its full attention to Dovah.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA8G6gkb6R5N
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANATLxZ4XvKP3
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAleOtlgbxAz
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAMrch5wZQW2
Jake finally found a good angle and jumped on the Ravager. He started to hammer its head, trying to open a hole into its core. Dovah helped by striking its head with claw and talon.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAX8DaXYNrvi
Thanks to their various attacks, Ravager was getting closer to the ground. But that victory was short-lived. Ravager started to glow and before the two attackers could react, it exploded with blue electricity and fire.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAH2mIcwjXtu
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAEro9N42L1A
Louise 2: “No, not yet anyway. It’s not too late, I’ll rip out that core even if I have to force myself to fly up there.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAv2gG1YQoBo
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAD8Bp8rnC13
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANA3IJ5DNdZOj
Jake would eventually regenerate any damage done but the lightning will slow him down. Regardless, he’ll get back into the action. But the Ravager doesn’t know that, it sees a near-death opponent.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAPIEdeBGIcl
It abandoned the dragon and went to delete the living weapon. But before it could, another welcomed surprise appeared. The final and winning variable.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAbkOWqshZcY
A new creature entered the battle and it was even bigger than the Ravager. It was dark and covered the entire school with its shadow. The beast tucked in its wings and dived into the Ravager.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAaCB1EhF61X
The force of the blow sent the machine crashing back to the earth. The new beast followed soon after and landed. The ground shook from both of their landings.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAo3UyYzKwfz
It stood like a human and uses its arms to hold down the Ravager. Its horns curled into a great crest over its head. It was a dragon.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAOyY97sgUjp
There was a bulky quality to the dragon that made it seem mighty and proud. From its armor-like scales to its sword-like wings to its powerful claws, this being existed for battle.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAvDL98rRZnn
Proven by the useless struggle of the Ravager. But Louise 2 was no fool. Even this new dragon would fall if the Ravager got used to its strength.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA1tAqXuGX3G
Louise 2: “I don’t know who you are but if you can understand me, keep it down while I end this.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAOVj2U6lSON
The new dragon complied and held Ravager up where she could get a good shot without hitting the dragon in the process. As if it knew what her plan was.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAxRtz18j88e
She took a deep breath, fell forward, and went on all fours with the right arm and left leg supporting her. In this form, she flared her wings.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA4SspejXbd0
Louise 2: ‘This might be really stupid and life-threatening but this Ravager could be the most dangerous thing in existence. That’s if it’s given enough time to adapt to everything we threw at it. I need to kill it, no matter the cost.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAURolSwuU5u
The distance between them became smaller.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAw9Zcxda2Gb
A low humming sound that was slowly rising in pitch entered Louise 2’s ears. The intricate lines that marked her whole body glowed pink. Steam rose between the line. With every breath she took, scalding steam escaped her mouth.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAgWTexlqXqF
20 meters
708Please respect copyright.PENANAtsoOwweNQi
Arcs of pink electricity started to form around her.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAyedTLZqNax
15 meters
708Please respect copyright.PENANAfBiAhxZg5R
She opened her eyes; her vision was surrounded by plenty of warnings but she dismissed them.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmZ15ZNaXeO
10 meters
708Please respect copyright.PENANAVwKroaY7UC
Louise 2: “Adapt to this!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAD5SPGpGKQ5
5 meters
708Please respect copyright.PENANA897Qm6wcw4
Her wings released a large force, destroying the entire wall behind her. At the same time, her left foot also gave out a large force that launched her toward the Ravager at godly speeds. Thanks to ‘haste’, it was even faster than normal.
708Please respect copyright.PENANACpH1gB0oH9
Starting from 0 all the up to Mach 10. For every 5 meters she crossed, an extra Mach 5 was added. By the time she reached the Ravager, she was going at Mach 30.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAg9SE6espFL
The sonic boom made it into everyone’s ears. Students screamed and even the fighters had to cover their ears as the ground quaked.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAKWODgehqWH
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
708Please respect copyright.PENANArY25xPXRF6
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAg8PENdwCwk
To everyone’s horror, her arms were bent unnaturally and they, along with her legs, looked like they were caught in a very powerful explosion. Steam wafted from her body along with the occasional pink sparks. Colbert had to shield his face at the amount of heat she was giving off. Everyone else seemed fine though.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAKrQsMWjuis
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwKjWz7IQ3y
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAHabTYk3N31
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYP9q93XFPC
The group turned to see another golem. They were about to start blasting, but that was until they noticed something. This one was different, it was blue with white lines on its side. It didn’t sport a head but instead a dome. Its body was cylindrical in shape. On the bottom, it was giving off some sort of glow like Louise’s wings.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAEsIVHSSUO3
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA6frYVkXOmP
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAfhU8FOj8fE
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANALNWQOYSGuY
They all look back to Louise 2 with worry etched on their faces. It was a bit harder to tell on the dragons’ faces but they obviously cared about their ally.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAnMDkO0DKT8
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANADdDE2g4uMY
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANARj9TNajmgn
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAURo0Dy7Tf4
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAq10nB2arsA
Bench: “Listen to her, I know what to do. Trust me, she’s in good hands.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAtLb2nj9ukf
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAgjimqPiQbY
Heeding his words, Raskeria and Colbert moved out of the way. Bench approached Louise 2 and a blue line scanned her entire being.
708Please respect copyright.PENANALAbrs84YdX
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA9FzDLaKMR7
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAAeUkOTnSMI
Bench: “I don’t know for sure if I can fix you up. The best I can do would be probably to cool you down so that you don’t overheat.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAMjV2inG9ep
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAgvp0twV9QU
Louise 2: “Then would…this help?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAMh47zVYLr9
She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAjFUekGzzG1
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANADj8v3pRLzt
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAyQOunMee7K
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAuRhJXkm069
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAAnjQS88pVX
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANArfwUjlzsEn
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAqqQULEn9vq
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAOAOH5EGEKP
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAhpsWKcZib1
Bench: “Look, what if your magic doesn’t work but hurts her instead? If we destroy this, that’s it. Louise dies. Do you want that?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA4ydHZVawpW
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANATdLtm3y51E
Bench: “By all means.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2ukOROr0t
Louise 2: “So…can you…d-do it Bench?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAPg64LxpATX
Bench: “Do you know who you’re talking to?
708Please respect copyright.PENANALeNxj4lVyc
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAQrH74HDXJw
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
708Please respect copyright.PENANArsxDZtVldS
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANASkKtsX11sB
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA3SZAYKJsEW
Everyone looks to a fully healed Jake who’s storming toward Colbert. He morphs his arm into a blade and points it at the man.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAhEU4VXJYAB
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAzH0SPLpw00
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA72j57Lg05E
Raskeria: “Calm down Jake, do you really want to fight everyone here?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAIPKt63IKiw
Jake: “…I’ll do what I have to.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAG4vXfqbnPP
Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAKzI1vd0ojK
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAvEzmuUNWwA
Jake: “I don’t care.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA30WHj40EhJ
Bench: “You-”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0KcHKyIBqb
Suddenly, a bright light appeared on everyone’s side. The massive dragon started to magically compress into a more human shape. Eventually, a man in his thirties with rich brown skin, short dark red hair, and hazel eyes appeared.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAE07IRscbEo
His armor was a sight to behold. Pieces of armor don over a colorful robe. He had a sword at his belt and a magnificent staff on his back. Finally, a strange necklace graced his muscular chest.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA5mC6rncBm8
Even the more prideful of the group couldn’t help but acknowledge the power and sheer royalty coming off of him. Next, they felt a charge tingle their skin.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAS7AtpwVNaE
“Can you understand me?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA8OKhmADVze
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAYkGSFTYFT3
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAY89sGO5GvQ
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAzdHw1tQzPs
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0FlHkMsrbB
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA10CJiR73ul
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAg92GTOUxcO
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwIb1vfgTDa
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA8KvoOZoxui
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAtOOkFQXiis
Zander: “I hope I don’t have to come back here and deal with you Jake. I rather we be friends than enemies.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAaq9IVitiAA
Jake scoffs at the notion but says nothing more. Even he can understand that the being before him is the strongest one in the courtyard. He’s going to need some time before taking him on.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAlWH2ExCZ3C
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA64SCyruFrz
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAbbkA4v7eyS
Jake: “After everything I just saw and heard, I’m not going to question magic or the fact I’m in another world. I know there’s nothing like these things on earth. But…”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAmaBJuLUPDf
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAPwBcFR291M
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA7BtFKr0RdI
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAOJ3P7FG4Rl
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAI8FHKCjsXt
No way to get back to New York meant Blackwatch ran free and the only family he has left was in danger.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAcqCALAIWnp
The only reason why he hasn’t gone on a rampage is because of the other summons. Based on his instincts and the fight, he knew they wouldn’t be easy prey. Especially…Zander.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeTtCRiSzw1
Jake isn’t stupid, he knows when to bide his time. They will pay for doing this. Despite that, he still couldn’t fully contain his fury. Jake clenched his fist and his blade began to shake with smoldering rage.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAGgKWBBxWwq
Jake: “You think this is easy for me? I want to go back and kill every last one of those Blackwatch bastards but that pink-haired bitch pulled me here!”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAdH6xYxjiaV
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAcCdBfPf9iW
Jake gritted his teeth in frustration. He wanted to destroy Blackwatch and Gentek personally and slowly for what they did to him. For his parents, for the people, and aunt Dana.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwt38tSGeH7
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAd0vCDNeOW2
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAUnLpEKkCtk
Jake: “Tell me.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAoImrfWU7sb
Raskeria: “I have the ability to use the 9th level spell ‘gate’ to teleport through the planes. If your world is out there, I can send you back.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeqaJfThNPl
Jake: “Then-”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA2uJLBwanb1
Raskeria: “But I don’t know where it is. You either have to describe it the best you can and hope I find it or…”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAN6Gc1N3u3F
Jake: “Or?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAqXJ6LGVc40
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANANkStNby4Ez
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAFjvyn1Jqj5
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAv38lpuPNgc
Jake: “…”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAQgLJW4UlLh
Jake thought about it. He saw how powerful magic can be. If he brought that back to New York, Blackwatch wouldn’t stand a chance. Not like they stood much of one anyway.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAz3PsO0RtW0
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAFTO6zWvyeM
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAV4ps5Mrwoe
Raskeria: “Depends on you and I’m not the best teacher. I can find someone better though. Regardless, it can take up to a few months or a few years. You’re aiming for ‘gate’ after all.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAE80uXAa44H
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAGHvW2xt7IO
Jake: “Both. I’ll learn a bit and see if I can do it fast. In the meantime, I expect a weekly report on your progress.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAGfCLM9IlvE
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAOykeLAthU2
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA7kBEoLoqKd
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAxiAufaY5oZ
Jake: *Sigh*
708Please respect copyright.PENANAVOUEh3DGQh
Jake: “If anyone needs me, I’ll be taking a walk. I need to eat something after all that. That unlucky bird wasn’t enough.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5eZq5joAk
Jake jumps over the walls and vanishes into the forest. Colbert looks like he’s aged a few decades from this whole event. But at least, it’s almost over.
708Please respect copyright.PENANALq6mrPJ6Gu
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANA0a4IqzEVE8
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwNHf4pdv5G
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANArjWgaR5Tln
Colbert: “Yes?”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAi5OijEx2YA
Dovahkiin: “Nothing. I’ll explore the surrounding area and get the lay of the land. I’ll also keep an eye on Jake just in case.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAMvX8M8V47V
Colbert nodded and stepped further back to allow Dovah to sweep her wings up and down. She leaps into the air and starts flying over the academy and forests in a circular pattern.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAtJGedJqtEy
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAy7Ii6c04dR
[Louise’s Room]
708Please respect copyright.PENANAlYL0B4LlsS
The battle was over and the wounded were taken to the clinic. But Aeterna’s master hasn’t woken up yet. She learned where Louise’s room is and takes her there.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAKBbahRNpLC
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
708Please respect copyright.PENANA1FKGFqYzus
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAyiRERnJnTi
She looks around the room and notices the decorum. Not too fancy but fit for a noble. The thing that drew attention though was the pile of hay.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAuB3WfQETdY
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAIHq09jigPd
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
708Please respect copyright.PENANApbzr35WTsr
Aeterna: “I better change out of this. The battle is over so I’m sure Louise will be fine for a while. I can probably get the maid outfit and a job at the same time.”
708Please respect copyright.PENANAs92IsSchKr
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAiCkRfaOfQQ
…
…
708Please respect copyright.PENANAwwPdlQU2pH
From the darkness of the room emerges a black snake. The last and omega familiar that will have the biggest impact on the events to come. He slithers onto the bed and whispers into Louise’s head.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAteOYTIKpmP
‘This is a very interesting playground I’ve ended up in. But it’s no problem for me, I’ve been through worse. What matters now, is controlling the most important piece on the board.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAB3XH6IuCwx
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
708Please respect copyright.PENANAt70Wa3op25
The snake faded back into the darkness of the room and waited patiently for his time strike. The only real problem is that redhead. If he can convince Louise to bond with him first, she’ll be his. She doesn’t yet realize the immense power that dwells with the redhead. He’ll be a better choice, especially when he offers her overwhelming power.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAeB7gD2nuKx
But unknown to the snake and everyone else, something else was stirring. The borders between realities have weaken and the first sign of what’s to come bleeds into this world.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAlT1BaJN3gZ
Outside, in the deep shadows of the forest, a rip in the reality opens and spits out a curiosity. A sword that freeze the surrounding air and calls for the dead to rise. If only a soul would wield it.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAGpBLOg4dyE
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAuWXPMts9FR
‘Let the games begin.’

708Please respect copyright.PENANAA7RYsgBwLG
I personally had the most trouble with the fight scenes. Trying to prevent an instant win delivered by Raskeria or Dovahkiin was hard. Handling multiple OP characters while keeping the stakes was a struggle. But I think I did well enough for version 1.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAlRBQ7pEJMW
It will get even harder when Tech wakes up and does his stuff. Combining the worlds of D&D and Elder Scrolls will be more so. But the potential for something special is there.
708Please respect copyright.PENANAI7cmShEUMj
I enjoyed the beginning the most, the dialogue and character interactions. The whole thing just felt like an “Avengers Assemble” moment. If I do continue, I hope I can do this band misfits justice.
