Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA4BCI9KJUoO
Mostly crossovers.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAWPEJV0lD6Z
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA30X2nvXGRe
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAwyeYiukQbj
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
558Please respect copyright.PENANArbCLxwwPlq
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA3Nz2P7Wxf3
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAhdSdGS2fZ6
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA9GqfQrNBBX
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAP4aNIsr03N
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
558Please respect copyright.PENANASRAbfUDSd0
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIMx1nmGllA
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANARjo8W9syVg
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
558Please respect copyright.PENANATAKxzSiFOy
A summoned familiar mirrors their master’s personality and elemental affinity. Who knows what hidden secrets their familiars may accidentally reveal to everyone?
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJTFVbXJ7E7
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAPrC34mf2vZ
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA5QhsE4orVC
Well, all but one.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAo7dN4JNBUf
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAou64sfUsE8
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcyHDEuGY6l
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAWOqOoKmRdv
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAs9zTFfXSU9
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAAgX1NwGhEy
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAEjhOdJegCD
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAqvWrv1JYic
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAft8FFi1eN2
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
558Please respect copyright.PENANASWtd7vp34i
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
558Please respect copyright.PENANA337cQGNcGP
“Louise the zero.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAuIpmWpr2LQ
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
558Please respect copyright.PENANACfrHYjhSdE
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANANniFcBF6ur
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHNPHc6qPIR
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmQk7lw7DPr
Louise: “Well of course!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANARIJjhuqKCm
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAgOi8t9BPYj
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1vTXGHT3Gw
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!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAivk7RA2D0q
“And so the die is cast.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAe0H06AqB3M
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAuwIBUeB01S
…
…
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFLBOk7CiVz
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcVqcPVi5WT
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQIQc3bo2XC
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAgmiPneypcw
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJNrftqy2hu
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7QmMKh4bhe
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQm2H6SQrra
Tabitha: “What?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAzDgUC6jh2M
Her question brought Slyphid’s head around to look her in the eyes. With their intimate bond, Slyphid was able to respond telepathically.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAaluTrJ51cg
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAxO0Bsmv5Or
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
558Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZyQbTBKZc
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7b8QdlhSzN
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmt97aYKe4b
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
558Please respect copyright.PENANA6pJnwA7sTp
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAjNQZMQSz1x
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHXAfAmcG9Y
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAL4f51dgIAV
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAbubJaNrJfM
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkP99VGug3Q
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAUHSALqSnTw
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAftF2VbSr3r
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAt0iLfjfGLV
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANApdouZ5LQoB
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANATPhrh6Bm0W
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAUoOjx3XACu
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7Z8ZrIrWs8
…
…558Please respect copyright.PENANAFOt3kZfE5I
558Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y3FfR2xKD
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAyvwNY4aobV
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIvkbFoam1b
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAk4ZiuqAeOm
“Okay, who summoned us?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAuGV5djjMk7
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAzNXki1FyKx
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”558Please respect copyright.PENANA1ofOLXQxqO
558Please respect copyright.PENANAERmRgqWM9X
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA0WxvFOyCy5
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA6kx8bxtKHI
558Please respect copyright.PENANA9v3eMFZIH7
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAhLPxueiq4H
558Please respect copyright.PENANAOT3Hjvphft
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAppIRHpLPAK
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAwGKbG6h0hn
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAjtb3nJFZGO
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAyUBsygkMnV
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAXCXGl7vczY
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAuKTO4LfsX6
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAqBIVB5hgQ8
She sighs.558Please respect copyright.PENANAR9jaD5Z0u9
558Please respect copyright.PENANAzDkdWsvGvd
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA3nnt8UHGja
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”558Please respect copyright.PENANAX7ksgDlNPw
558Please respect copyright.PENANAB6Bsa6hMMl
Raskreia: “Sure, if you’re going to explain to us what in the nine hells is going on here exactly and where we are?”558Please respect copyright.PENANAiARPIhnqxt
558Please respect copyright.PENANABTQecNG6ud
At this, Louise answers before the man could.558Please respect copyright.PENANArXyWe2qwYx
558Please respect copyright.PENANAWjppsd710D
Louise: “You’re here because I summoned you all to be my familiar with the summon servant spell, and I am your master now.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAiTwqKxsC5o
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.558Please respect copyright.PENANAc9fQx5rqqq
558Please respect copyright.PENANAXhPQw9f3N8
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”558Please respect copyright.PENANAktC55bBbib
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZQocBeFB7
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”558Please respect copyright.PENANA1nrmGcwv2B
558Please respect copyright.PENANAoIwFc5TjvQ
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.558Please respect copyright.PENANAoeQb61OCiS
558Please respect copyright.PENANA344prXLs6M
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAS0yG7BNPzP
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAz0YgZgefF7
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHa9Z5JLywK
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAjEps4ivHIW
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAXbKlgIeHZc
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAb7yFkEqiuX
“Neither have I, strange.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkj4lZ3h5Eu
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7j7VGdSkOf
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkG694PzwaT
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAYCHQJnJ3pY
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.558Please respect copyright.PENANAlroUFa6rK7
558Please respect copyright.PENANAOsCfLcbOQo
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”558Please respect copyright.PENANAVFkpKpeu4k
558Please respect copyright.PENANAbvsQ488FVy
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmBwgTF9jWV
But that thought quickly faded away when the dragon growled. It drew itself up by stretching its wings down and glared at Louise.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAqUt3c6yyui
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?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAXGO57yq2O6
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAgjnpGthwKv
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAsTVFtIyPjk
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAw7v6UeD9wt
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIQSgZgJnZz
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAGuBmUgS0MR
Dovahkiin: “I for one refuse to become anyone’s slave. I simply want to return to the life I lived before this all occurred.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHYzwFtT7HG
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAqnv8XuTeGq
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.’558Please respect copyright.PENANAw6aml9bTTI
558Please respect copyright.PENANAURcsL61CP4
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAMQNXJGcLvi
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAvtQVND3lON
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAO3XiiKkmvU
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANATIpHP6WG8O
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.558Please respect copyright.PENANAyMQ7h6ZQno
558Please respect copyright.PENANAuqh1IUFAby
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.558Please respect copyright.PENANA6uPzev0tzG
558Please respect copyright.PENANAlHxtE2SPjp
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAqBI8zuZDlW
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAz4yaTH3fw2
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAXoUSMIYs49
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVupLo5UY5G
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
558Please respect copyright.PENANAf9Qn4z1pqA
“I have my own reasons.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAdQA9cio50D
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQjHSyQrfAD
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?
558Please respect copyright.PENANA3lp3j8sK7k
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAayzqDsiDOV
Louise reapplies her rule of steel mask and starts towards the redhead. She let out an indignant, resigned huff as she raised her wand.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAv6OAHDmS2X
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAPkv85yiYBc
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Oh, pentagon that rules the five elements, bless this individual and-”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA2NE1WtQq4i
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQTD753SKeI
‘Did you think this was it?’
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7JDQq0Of8W
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVlMJNWwHbm
“Louise!?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAhA9WgO5SnZ
Everyone, including the dragon, looks at Louise with concern. Before anyone could go to her and see what’s wrong, something else extraordinary happens.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAAq4WjniwJU
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAepxCPdBGAf
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7tAi8F3TVu
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANANTYXIlob5b
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAuILR0lPwgo
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAWRXRZvwsW6
Colbert: “A golem?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAzpGvuOMhXE
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAzkDonwpp9N
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAwKHCxd0j9d
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIv973DVYkd
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAt7F2cn1Okf
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVz7GDF9Gf0
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAlHwmBJFYfz
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFNxqyCQ7L8
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAfq1VHktDDe
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVIU1YWZkuB
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1zAqPRFDGb
Guiche: “L-Louise?”558Please respect copyright.PENANAkhakhiDwEi
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJn9g9rTzLH
Colbert: “But how?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA6TSjEJ46HG
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAGoOB9pB5wk
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAzdkZRtGwvp
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANADbBlmhwAvY
Guiche: “How dare-”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkao3nDkEEI
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANADrKAf0XymC
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAWwTiYHWC01
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
558Please respect copyright.PENANALKwGZqst1q
While this was happening, the redhead took Louise to a safe distance. She could help but she wanted to keep Louise safe for now.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIijh4e4S1g
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmGBWReQ8cW
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAc0u6bwx1wR
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”

Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAtmpqkmEHfc
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAWa91ev3MMT
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
558Please respect copyright.PENANARbN7CNi5Dk
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANALOunXnuDX2
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAjjou0WVf5p
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAxWXGjhfxAS
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA9fz5v6smPN
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAjdJHqINseN
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAicRlTH5Iey
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA6Vm5zCILPE
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAxyvAKKeFv2
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAK9WR8Io8ul
Eventually, the sound of clicking reached her ears. She disassembled her shield and placed her hands behind her with her palms open.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1ndNoya5kL
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkADa0yoBNr
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1SJVZdiSVs
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFhSVqOiLc7
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANANjmNS2EGyq
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAyuNRKoS1XY
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA6S3kaCEc7g
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
558Please respect copyright.PENANATybtvEYsB2
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAw1ezSzEhh1
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAOP7y0H0nEA
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAiI4RaowUbg
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAdh4fCMBWLP
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAdUBnVTgkyB
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAwXwgLGOaBA
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAu2F7TBrTcj
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAaieWxqkdjB
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANASAK1qdUCxj
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAZE5iSbYeXr
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAqh6lJtNQkl
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAOA7r4aJ1Ce
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
558Please respect copyright.PENANANhQbXFnwTT
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANANu2E9fFzYd
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmpyaKJgGKs
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA3oqeYPAQMX
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAyHW7HWANUY
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcwkry9qB7B
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANApk1X2R0a6s
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJN1JPkSCgQ
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAl1EFCNvaot
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAy1D1PI4UCV
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHs66fvClFL
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQUdkLXaGJS
They followed her order, many out of fear of the sight before them. The 3 golems slowly but surely collapsed into strange black sand.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3VrNkfbnW
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAxqMkPYn7sd
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAfMMQTf1REo
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAi4m0A4j1Ks
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFuLQvKoGtp
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAc8iQoqFflv
Finally, the head was bulky enough to discourage any beheading. But the most important part was the lines connecting to the chest area.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAN8cqN9danh
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAITNPiL9bfP
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7hLlXoAZP
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7nhudsr250
Raskeria: “A what?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANADJeqewGr7N
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAiCvQ29DLUm
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANApvx8HHPXbf
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFZXafCeaWO
Louise 2: “Go!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA035kyunKA9
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAhUkILGQeL5
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAAFsIgkHUkw
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAvUljREMB5w
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAZYSpLWL72T
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAy05VBwWhdy
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAdc1cxL81ng
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA5yeLySC7dR
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAz0wdE2qyKY
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkJ5klFofP4
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmjAnpjzevq
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANARZSYQ14Kzw
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcF4lz3pZrl
Raskeria: “My bad.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAiXtt8PScTb
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAM1zzNZoQj9
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
558Please respect copyright.PENANArzsfJ8Clz1
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcj3No7aWcy
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAy1QOco6ig2
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAtHDtYfjzcX
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAYWXrmyoem5
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAob5W1NG8lS
Jake: “…Fine.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1LgI1hq6Hg
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAdJZ6JHfpOR
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAGA2AZyFHpY
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAz1BsGNcMoy
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”558Please respect copyright.PENANA6im56UYHG5
558Please respect copyright.PENANAxaV3akbYdn
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAqTDJS6IMOy
Raskeria: “Dovahkiin, this is all you. I’ll focus on protecting everyone while you distract it enough to prevent it from firing.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIkn6cqnkSs
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZQB2Z4SZ4
Despite Dovah’s best efforts though, Ravager wasn’t that bothered by it’s attacks. That was until Dovah started using more unique shouts.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJziGpb3Hom
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAKhKjeFh3Lu
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAtAFWVAbyHE
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHsu9FR2ZHt
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA63BNP9uxRc
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA3QzLv11Phr
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAuBBOfqX7qe
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQlV2hG1FMN
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVnr7TIjtFn
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA92lRwHylNM
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAH7M01pAzlj
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAEbzsOwTIb5
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkussELaQd8
It abandoned the dragon and went to delete the living weapon. But before it could, another welcomed surprise appeared. The final and winning variable.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAT7jtkAVPMg
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFsAP5rtG7M
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA9OMB9z7IjY
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANArkKZJAMEvW
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANARFaO7Er5OH
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJltpvVprtY
Louise 2: “I don’t know who you are but if you can understand me, keep it down while I end this.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA21czzt4dkX
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA4ryuIPjocR
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAOwje0cVyUI
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.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAWnJbgcwMxc
The distance between them became smaller.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJiW5EjKeUF
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA5snyTdhZv1
20 meters
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHGNxyVx0AX
Arcs of pink electricity started to form around her.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAgVzZT1kt6E
15 meters
558Please respect copyright.PENANApAmqOzpoNs
She opened her eyes; her vision was surrounded by plenty of warnings but she dismissed them.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAn58tdFwOf3
10 meters
558Please respect copyright.PENANApqYWEMy7i0
Louise 2: “Adapt to this!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANANyAEgfUD30
5 meters
558Please respect copyright.PENANApB9TNfkhun
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANADfWKsDVg09
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANADQkeOGUHdi
The sonic boom made it into everyone’s ears. Students screamed and even the fighters had to cover their ears as the ground quaked.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAOOAcxwWHO1
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAd66HazzThL
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAjGyX0WKD9D
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAxgY40f39Nu
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFruosDeTgX
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA6qXipzAyu3
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAlgAsKYIea9
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcpePcNVWKe
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA8ffwmyTnIB
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1XVdhr8X00
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAYDtLt4W3Xv
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA5bKj7pMuaO
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANArvQz5f19Le
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcReruPSLeh
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAkysafXCjoo
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANALxFWMuxKP6
Bench: “Listen to her, I know what to do. Trust me, she’s in good hands.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAsN0aw9AwcI
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAvyqnKVSv0g
Heeding his words, Raskeria and Colbert moved out of the way. Bench approached Louise 2 and a blue line scanned her entire being.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHYs0JevJPE
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIXXPOZHVaj
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAnQP2b6Y2eF
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAszUBLamXqP
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAhvP72FEm5j
Louise 2: “Then would…this help?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7L74nJCCfy
She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAEHQQbhtSTf
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAwSmTFLs4EI
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANANBZLQd9KmE
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAS8uftpu14r
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAiJYUi4RewY
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAt3fkAt1Av8
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANASNSKKylnPo
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAGEg7rnordr
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAGvYTEdQ2v4
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?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA2BE5ybac90
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmUtdXcCdye
Bench: “By all means.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAdkFY3HRv5E
Louise 2: “So…can you…d-do it Bench?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAMqvDREbCyb
Bench: “Do you know who you’re talking to?
558Please respect copyright.PENANA2NqfNmaJJS
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA52uzHUknL3
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQfwDEWMDGZ
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAPVG90McRHd
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANArD3atASncE
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAZX0SIx6U06
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAZG9dJpXR5p
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA1VqKyPgzkO
Raskeria: “Calm down Jake, do you really want to fight everyone here?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAYY2wmHZhvC
Jake: “…I’ll do what I have to.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA3swC6exOC3
Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAh7mEPYu6s4
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA4Rdt469agJ
Jake: “I don’t care.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAsxRW3eWGWD
Bench: “You-”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVetOLsOXrr
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAl7wkhR0ltN
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAvqtw4QiiPx
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAhnkkPWnoGL
“Can you understand me?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVfkPotAgPg
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANArIch4NJzP3
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAwAGqydFcP9
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAfmiDbQr6Q8
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA8PFlRCifB9
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA9wmYlmQsIl
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAk2WyvpEBwH
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAC6kb7Dpsou
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQoAmRGV7y7
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAo2jbvVUNVF
Zander: “I hope I don’t have to come back here and deal with you Jake. I rather we be friends than enemies.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7auvU28hwj
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAb1YXA19v2Y
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAr8KzrtqBK8
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAH2zubLDcSI
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…”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcgial7itE4
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQejzcA7qjI
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANADWDuhce1sz
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAfxk7EhPtJa
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAJdfTxb6EUl
No way to get back to New York meant Blackwatch ran free and the only family he has left was in danger.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHKbgS4IdYd
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAh4o4m1hOm1
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAazsRg0pBT0
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!”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAX5iFHQO1Cj
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA8oNWsMb6wL
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAvLbELbL6np
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANANPR8A0Uln4
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAiACmEYqCbW
Jake: “Tell me.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAvWC1gFmsFS
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA3QzFLdZNdd
Jake: “Then-”
558Please respect copyright.PENANANxvUG3KCzj
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…”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAAj09f0kkJ4
Jake: “Or?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAoChK7ks0mQ
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANACn9jOe3eBW
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAFNXE4oJjbf
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAfksSpR90zt
Jake: “…”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7J9nGQutIY
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAQTUUkcv7jv
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAdiVy5bUlGO
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAjeSBmqIamo
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAmPHUmtjyST
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANAlWSQpxUMhn
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4Md4FiOHM
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAB1XRpr1Emq
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAiXhTCzgZDc
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANA42WBsjHkZT
Jake: *Sigh*
558Please respect copyright.PENANAhBzrBz2jze
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA4qrHNxPh7x
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAAQKE40IWZL
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAezbaZ0I51n
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
558Please respect copyright.PENANA63cJBMIFgM
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANATUc7l9hdGi
Colbert: “Yes?”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAHTy2HZWZbv
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIi9YEdr2mM
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAEPYN3KVAcg
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAYQtIoiElDP
[Louise’s Room]
558Please respect copyright.PENANAMqU2UKVueN
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANABFL8dQJ7xn
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAGdL3CJHSgE
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAa5ngcEL3N0
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAcHWRvzxnSE
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAj3DWIPBA2B
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
558Please respect copyright.PENANARQpm7AgRL2
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.”
558Please respect copyright.PENANAZctTRJMSXd
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7pve1L58Ma
…
…
558Please respect copyright.PENANAr1nBJzAZwA
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAIwqbPdusHK
‘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.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANA6fJFhdPUmv
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7bbgLDrwAs
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVSTF6G6P5s
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAKRSGr8o6Z1
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAVDny1pzHFj
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA8BOILzSH4c
‘Let the games begin.’

558Please respect copyright.PENANAkYzHdOXBpM
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANAForvessbYw
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.
558Please respect copyright.PENANA7k8KknMIMj
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.
