Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU3WiXhawx
Mostly crossovers.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyzqz4IsHS
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYPzeFoSNN
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggTnYDlQXh
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFmfXH7bqg
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BWHASgebl
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwesplOS0EA
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9rLBghLXB
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjLuB8Pdci
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4BBAyq5e7
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiZ6DVolak
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13dzrtMkdn
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnNhIyIrsb
A summoned familiar mirrors their master’s personality and elemental affinity. Who knows what hidden secrets their familiars may accidentally reveal to everyone?
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LMuaSpmxU
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2tbHjQWIk
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw29lQas1D3
Well, all but one.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbOQRi841Y
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXceR2e6Kum
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EgsVQPxZ7
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OTM56X9Q3
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmIYJERIUD
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEye14q6ug
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM14Ax617Qp
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4FSQe6wNK
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJovHqkAK4V
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvmzUcCTCN
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzNmBbkdqp
“Louise the zero.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2LUUm18JR
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ612DIm4qya
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ8OEJcwmv
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM2j1pxjrt
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTzkqn3p23
Louise: “Well of course!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxdOJK8f4o
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflnxaPtNyw
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwIFcz0yns
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!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPdtjZRNyr
“And so the die is cast.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLE7Vh8h0e
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1MpK58Rr8
…
…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLabrKUKEJF
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1euawyYyl5
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4Rp3BVxY0
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoz6xtHBE2
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56kW39gODn
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeUbJVwWIy
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaiFHWL1ay
Tabitha: “What?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0FWm81NyW
Her question brought Slyphid’s head around to look her in the eyes. With their intimate bond, Slyphid was able to respond telepathically.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGYnRxm4aP
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKKNCLNk48
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnjRBxFXuh
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BWX1G0m4v
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEUFmlGotE
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLpkWBI2Cn
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoT0m7aHOk
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea87mQHmtv
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5i9WmWXW2
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtgymXOMAh
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhbXYj8FbE
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoPndPJi7b
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiweEbvZ5W
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4hE4hkHcd
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aBHVmIf0j
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtEECHkLJ0
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pGAHki9qO
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXgWtvp8OO
…
…985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlT2GQN6nhf
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYn3VrQR6u
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDmgFSWQGB
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj2LIrF8cA
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3eCdvnLC3
“Okay, who summoned us?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ag49gcMfO
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z2eMBn9mA
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnPFZu9xnA
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqlM3ocsWV
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAEBR0n99c
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrmyXuIxT4
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j7pOwFvDC
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDxpNwP6Np
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k0xejA4tK
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0bPJaSjl5
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUpZBDa0jp
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVduovn0gM
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqdjnWM7fc
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc84Iy50b0
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUThQb55Zx
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj1y8iWYGt
She sighs.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Twp1upMGx
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YuBF8WrXi
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8U5X8PV4U
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqLRKCDWvw
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5JjU6cNME
Raskreia: “Sure, if you’re going to explain to us what in the nine hells is going on here exactly and where we are?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9REOqwi1AS
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCzNnjYiMj
At this, Louise answers before the man could.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIHo1vYGw0
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5VUdfFJD0
Louise: “You’re here because I summoned you all to be my familiar with the summon servant spell, and I am your master now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQMnm0Vjyp
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpDGRLFba0
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfaDPy9YDt
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9XvpVqvna
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefjQKDqQaR
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVzyZDk24Z
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDY4ELpEjS
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHysHEMFXJ
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxE6128qfLV
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEUbzffFU3
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb4tmFNzpK
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Nq2WM58Ae
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8kG101FGg
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7wn4YKG4E
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeQf2yIaRL
“Neither have I, strange.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEv5qogyL1
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vUZSW8FfA
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtg809oH9l
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHYgZw1OEP
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCakuQHKLK
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoeVjywPGO
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU9TwuipY8
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFTtEpPsyw
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARVYNAZUTv
But that thought quickly faded away when the dragon growled. It drew itself up by stretching its wings down and glared at Louise.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ23rzFtaWE
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?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts233ZKOSD
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrialzSwCuO
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OeZKaqIth
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ISN1fzsU9
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MKszBzWrQ
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi1aIat90Q
Dovahkiin: “I for one refuse to become anyone’s slave. I simply want to return to the life I lived before this all occurred.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbro5NOPnn
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelVXGIZJyW
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.’985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4HGukhqMW
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUQTrdpdr9
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3c0uhG7N4P
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6k6Yhy6i1
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WaqoYwxb7
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUY3LXpwhj
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.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRJiapzKfr
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ8bl8IVJH
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hGaboOhxl
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIe7JPspTfJ
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRmKRwXRZT
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnIkvVuiaL
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv430AsHetl
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsqRHrCQEb
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtHVlyn6cG
“I have my own reasons.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsNa1jf16W
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5Z7iRZdjQ
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?
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWVjAHF4cU
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJCBKtnp8y
Louise reapplies her rule of steel mask and starts towards the redhead. She let out an indignant, resigned huff as she raised her wand.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmauqXDKLa
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15bQUP1yS1
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Oh, pentagon that rules the five elements, bless this individual and-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vxdicj2Tp
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZz6EEsHrsI
‘Did you think this was it?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SdUgDybDl
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRz77tIwwj
“Louise!?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h4dyb3eyC
Everyone, including the dragon, looks at Louise with concern. Before anyone could go to her and see what’s wrong, something else extraordinary happens.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zqQl8ZCL6
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbFXZUdZf1
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8v3w57OVU
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1VdDKe1wA
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN755Rk66FX
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFFe2h7njC
Colbert: “A golem?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnuO6n0Hid
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYun89CORj
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDObixSteV
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVHLoM0IRW
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxWHKLmyqB
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZfhoVdJsg
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd0KaA1HP2
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbFhIO9YpV
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ3VoMbyKr
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04ags2MeOs
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWKGgZXpaQ
Guiche: “L-Louise?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhVLQ2YFOF
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SpzVnGwpe
Colbert: “But how?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmky275J5s
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrlwlh56sR
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwXNjcCpgD
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQfpOihUSd
Guiche: “How dare-”

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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUCYlA6n00
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQt82GEfkn
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw3AqxvPzW
While this was happening, the redhead took Louise to a safe distance. She could help but she wanted to keep Louise safe for now.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATlriW9X5H
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fuhLQuUwW
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiJfeo9mhB
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSHBJmWILc
Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlS8dQaijeJ
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtthbcs2cI
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN0yBLhtrl
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmO7m0EMgd
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKe1NlTAdA
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvkiWtGXEl
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSF2JBHLlO
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDZZmx9cEq
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYx34jqNM2
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkZ4EygJGn
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvSnTKClVL
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ8EJonSmz
Eventually, the sound of clicking reached her ears. She disassembled her shield and placed her hands behind her with her palms open.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WmKmLmr1S
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSF9pB2hU3
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFRxup2cxy
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi0yUGavLM
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZx27F7sQw
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3CaGodxGB
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Gm9vjHVAQ
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQcHBpdfWN
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6nDw5aAJ9
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWAVq70yrT
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyitA8A4Fmb
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLWBOhhwSb
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKFreB8iN0
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BtpiARK2V
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbmznt2jj1
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hwhrQpNZ6
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1MufS1LIE
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlPYLMB5ZG
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2KgWdlUjg
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n4Fktw1EJ
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMQFAw3cHo
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh07aZ595m6
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVocRkONRrT
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywo6OwpPTM
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr6AEafSez
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwHBoOtl55
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nM7unS5D0
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh22xBVMgi
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54O0pgNAKy
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjQgM21uhG
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDfRXQczR6
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqygm7rsio
They followed her order, many out of fear of the sight before them. The 3 golems slowly but surely collapsed into strange black sand.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4Aq53deqe
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCXq2oo04o
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZe4r9wG9R
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUCTVAMjey
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfZml1LHiB
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EPJhJ9hbR
Finally, the head was bulky enough to discourage any beheading. But the most important part was the lines connecting to the chest area.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNMOIzJSlm
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeuYL9WDyE
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG61CdSWmDi
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECDCgKKRYU
Raskeria: “A what?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78k1GfYSrv
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkRwCZlLna
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgM8Ye5rXo
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHesQGfLYu5
Louise 2: “Go!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL69BxXEh1a
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyWt3uoSwY
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡov7lwA7TIn
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡms6ISNUzZt
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKl5tO04TY
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62HYfz9QHg
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfC1M9IIxI
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE3HAAvPHi
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsMSBUuHM2
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2NVPdvEXY
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClQrx7M8HR
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5Un8m3Mg7
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYk1669ZvI
Raskeria: “My bad.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rl26DLOxF
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZBIhkKrem
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgJjN0B0Hw
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1xMggqsf6
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlQjtN1Jul
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd10PfUk9BD
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIhnPL8XZC
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYgcgTCQAL
Jake: “…Fine.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanx5YhJxUa
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmeyPuMbWP
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi0LLo8R6m
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqT0Ns1o0s
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LmzTGuNFc
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7usbrKZm1C
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzIoIvZv3c
Raskeria: “Dovahkiin, this is all you. I’ll focus on protecting everyone while you distract it enough to prevent it from firing.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaJqU1itG6
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvtz8E15Gi
Despite Dovah’s best efforts though, Ravager wasn’t that bothered by it’s attacks. That was until Dovah started using more unique shouts.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwagTp9OBS7
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnkgNqwsTG
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0liRkR0NYc
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoE9MFeFST
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfW2b1TdD9r
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9fb0uu5FO
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZejhMqjJo
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtCJWy9zVF
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ839jg62B0x
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NqCbkd7Dw
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrBSzkYl0a
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofpl8NvrFA
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJG34msO1z
It abandoned the dragon and went to delete the living weapon. But before it could, another welcomed surprise appeared. The final and winning variable.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExSEbCyHwG
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVzrsk6Ow6
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GOqweKUzC
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hdFmplJgo
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuGf7XwpKx
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHB1T4ej7BG
Louise 2: “I don’t know who you are but if you can understand me, keep it down while I end this.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNXRiIPOGD
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84Tasnz59u
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygS4TUaOm0
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.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyaguvVqo6
The distance between them became smaller.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2FsuWSe5X
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwmyB4Uwsy

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwKiSwdcW3
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gWYYvq0Zx
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqeVB8FIDa
The sonic boom made it into everyone’s ears. Students screamed and even the fighters had to cover their ears as the ground quaked.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAW8cPzZlm
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqOVaHWqpJ
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMJzYWRXkH
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZUMA6v9A3
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5h4y0TiHr
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicYkI7DSlO
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSYBIt84wl
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN54MNXbnPX
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr945H3Wwiq
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuKHJafYCa
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvXON93MUF
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeFa1TApVN
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKigJRILXJ
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy51RAplsn
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWkEoOfEgk

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU3HfDO1nx
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGSOiuAYs6
Heeding his words, Raskeria and Colbert moved out of the way. Bench approached Louise 2 and a blue line scanned her entire being.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLspKlFoC0M
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRmDZ0H3HM
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ojd7nvnzu
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuvUnwEBX7
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9JHNOlDYH

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡintILYISYP
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH4X8MsKE6
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPT5aBy0HV
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mQXHpJ03U
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsGLyApOvy
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBvf88pB98
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAXHmdonT7
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qaJp09CY1
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQir3MpMPp
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?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFSvE490eu
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfYMQa75hD

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9zIX0Mv15
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJqvfH1Xlp
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDrpo9GKJs
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzz62PuYxL
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeO62iIRoSg
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2q5NmhXx4
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL29eN9tSqf
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww4EnqcWco

Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM728ONlXOX
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhckjeP4fC
Jake: “I don’t care.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPBr2eiwRR
Bench: “You-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpK5aMDzHGa
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6xHr0vwgr
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCQ3TVNm9n
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgswADOTAk
“Can you understand me?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWXDj57QWQ
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ejG4rSRwl
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7g9ATCGgP
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI8coQfWeN
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwN2wqOgW8
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7osXJDyPOT
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWTCdqcYQ3
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqULDcb382
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8cCOR98ge
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2QXLgTQsM
Zander: “I hope I don’t have to come back here and deal with you Jake. I rather we be friends than enemies.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAdkFFSSFb
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VQvzUs8G6
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0CeuYE3d2
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtJpVq2haH
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…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOMTXlF5ZI
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2P42l6kyM
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEb4KmNuJm
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJzQQorFYp
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI9tF4ttJf
No way to get back to New York meant Blackwatch ran free and the only family he has left was in danger.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvGnvOBPiL
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMFPaNMAQq
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4CRSg9LGq
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!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTevrel3ePO
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSrVMqsQIT
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFOoiscm8T
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8UrhmOEmV
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqt0vbTb3Y
Jake: “Tell me.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoI3wtmVFr
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrQH4kQIfJ
Jake: “Then-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYDnfQkJIq
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…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUMS5giM7M
Jake: “Or?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFkxolJsTq
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCJyJ7Rdis
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjkRqGZUAu
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmSr08QCfF
Jake: “…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoNf3QCzqX
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAzzIRSuoV
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysIhpbElKV
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRwGCYbjdn
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1JUJkPj17
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLH9Gny6bV
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjGgXW2vSb
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoIWRbpEVo
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCbKs1Wjip
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKpvrhCjCn
Jake: *Sigh*
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcppWABYhRd
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamBv90kCVx
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFHHBjhDMU
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDHwJuDLpz
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn30F9H2Cif
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgt9eWchB8K
Colbert: “Yes?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHHP7uPsfU
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkEK9edUoP
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgK4DS9JLu
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3S8XtGISL
[Louise’s Room]
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hJAYsiwWW
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvpwRwBm96
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZe2RIH9Si
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvtK6jdB1u
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5V54xc70E
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvJA3zFIDZ
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlchMzmqqVj
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.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EgxjjioyA
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMhNQ5ZR84
…
…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijjNkEi2wu
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLlUsuXi20
‘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.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LJmOq2ivp
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAyoyuhLiY
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacvFw2sMhI
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52aUmFRS4a
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3zK03vQHk
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ921yQvTghi

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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkq4T3w0EB
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.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWh8F1MNve6
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.
