Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHAwH9OQnv
Mostly crossovers.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65VMtcAOgt
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZC08uM0k1
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg62qs0btzs
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ202DP74WBj
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXge7jJBRj
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkV90SDN86
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlWUOGjAHE
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi77EAOrnE
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbc4rp4ZPk
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZFZnFPYRB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aFP41GDjV
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWjSJgUQak
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DS3iN5vZd
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ElBPqoBL6
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2K84yqQNx
Well, all but one.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zXokGjVPi
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h9s0Zv73I
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWVPWGPWjs
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZXsoKnmx6
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXDoWS4WMa
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzIFS2gt3a
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehk1TKZNMO
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifkwbpMZUg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHo6BKl8KEa
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGKCmSkc3V
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKp68CrnOk
“Louise the zero.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWnB7RpRjl
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeTaemY3A2
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELjSmQipSc
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3WOBKGKAk
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4XJ9tZizZ
Louise: “Well of course!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8OUE0rsQg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuX161qtob6
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEIrLa04UQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteratknAP5
“And so the die is cast.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VY1Artuj0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNg2fhkETsC
…
…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtD7BnpnhM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKPNvNMVNZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E5az5dMFa
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHgsqm2Uko
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiUwumgXNh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvbz9pAn4u
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXVChcLXEM
Tabitha: “What?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13ts0pT5sf
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOOH5XMjti
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnYO9BieLo
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhONRrBWKeC
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3g6APSLqn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1jhNcfAlV
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDycsBAtssQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kqPTTLWxz
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxWZER9R67
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqcoKgakG6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsryaXEPBj9
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJOghPJ9DH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKiBpM5gSR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3a9MJDyAp
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTXalUVPBl
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfGq1uYY33
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoREu2tc9NR
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvdVACX7BR
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR9z7BuG98
…
…985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fAawnpbxU
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XS2HYSEeY
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cI4u3PuM1
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMKrIAELUR
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOoocZKnDg
“Okay, who summoned us?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAJdqz6dot
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm7E0bAL0K
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0YXuFdjrT
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkGd6zOb6a
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqE3f6EfiO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPYqSGf1Mz
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9OQXlzttd
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz6eslpMSp
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWDQWRTQ7o
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYXniJBlEV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ1NMGQYgY
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWj2nJtWNc
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeST2pPXCk8
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaPZnKykYj
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0MZJuDvOc
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnohX86fUOi
She sighs.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqqF4yDtyM
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvCiWy6eGK
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLC4AnkvQ0m
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbOVRjhe1n
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEv5NGa9Slk
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrNwHAmN5I
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5lXp7i3Xa
At this, Louise answers before the man could.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwLtm2O35k
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqwU8sUxdx
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NPy7ayH3U
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtygq9TrmgI
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmqtduZgl6
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXzRBOapN5
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCPjZdyeQs
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSEItxsz7P
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBruB0omXS
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFQ0OTEaSd
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ396DQz2CLB
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLynWv3oip
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vJSdEO7du
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIy7MiQHcrR
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilwHoQyhqh
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7Rie80QvB
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VknUiCzCF
“Neither have I, strange.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozxe3DKuMk
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTsCP3nNwW
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU76kUhYvK9
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEELfXKTHa
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgg1Ly7q3r
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m1MU7JtHt
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymjL6KmpLf
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurrtdPpama
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCs8pQ95FZT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBJ8hbDpJ1
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYIKHb6PSO
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV50FzfaSk
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJFcrGJeck
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26rjO380BA
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWGJWnLpAV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeL3JW44vh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeasOIcEaJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf15ZoBck4v
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuvEoeygDB
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfHmtiP4aP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdPFKIqCwg
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40IFVwFZ2E
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVsKQumbad
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QoPKHfgee
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiiaF8L16Z
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHINIafm1gx
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sVrQWTx5K
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpAKzqDnJI
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1lo8Qvkzo
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2TVIPrKoa
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdSXtPkcGi
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsaPx9Bqh5
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr8CMRRJu9
“I have my own reasons.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IGVYZGSmH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFsXucqfpb
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EzxyXFYg8
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VIg6pAPCx
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQfQtjpYd2
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBf8nF4OIPQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4jllWeIV6
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2OfwrjgXX
‘Did you think this was it?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ7Pg35IK3
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvd3aoDEpf
“Louise!?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xRd3q4GAM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoUUUfJVnA
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJnsFoxRwG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrhDlDCKsy
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAyIZUzpke
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGzNtO5hjJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7dVKtIi5w
Colbert: “A golem?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5b7tdfagBB
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gKUtJOJFt
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRm7AFLlqf
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiv30KfgzZ
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOnjNLzq3T
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcajZ7gSkY
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcCQUAheL4
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjgEEkJ9XP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JzkQLxNI4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCkkATI534
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuDZs4IBPV
Guiche: “L-Louise?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgiYXPN5g4
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdNaYTnLkX
Colbert: “But how?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwuKN604vu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS6DqEejQI
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCFa1jXIiK
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpW2tBRrWV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopBW2N4CZT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjVXw45XG4
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23vDg833dJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcY0snMHcXx
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFYvE7HA6D
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwSRx2mE64
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXzEcdoI7S
Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa6lSNgJJM
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc4ltFwyTS
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5REMGfgaq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hUXOxpwZI
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7cFwFFGSN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsaIoOPQ4N
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9Z434PL4Z
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdvBdEiSzK
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKtl6WjPWv
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LTGAbnjU5
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qbZeO7OwZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jYSNth7wd
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvswuph7fk
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHc0hu841H
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtr6NOTjdzO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh5ggIfegL
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4DXYSXB44
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7DhPVtBFL
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDvVdD1vKn
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ngVWm1wbT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNht3veL2XM
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbF6uYuNzW
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1sAmw2mRD
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlgw2NUQyY
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCAuDDFE2p
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bfx7slvjp
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql3D5U5ZFG
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RrOQj959C
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZE5cvGduJ
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Yis5QK8Zm
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uZbCOpatp
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gGdsZuile
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3uDTuc7N6
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABRhA0Q6kU
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuCvln3ZMI
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemoiNh3xpj
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnRJ2FR3Vr
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r4a0Q2LOG
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDLxxMgUmJ
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwKgHz8knx
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgtnAxGHuq
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mHhqTlDvl
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOaDuRX8iD
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfjApKJeGP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE6MAakdXQ
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3xbkUVQ1e
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yNzsfVuHe
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGke6QOcfZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ3ygdBzbB
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJMYIMmb6v
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGNzJ0YdsY
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfcbbMb4iR
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxh4gIy40rK
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsd5avFeG2
Raskeria: “A what?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnxieU9u7P
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAfLcCzufG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDn77Fwuvm
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDaVXReuc1
Louise 2: “Go!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOxrrzHXic
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJgQi14occ
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4C57X3yzp
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRridIDgYpy
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XD8GpwQAq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgm0XMzhKY
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4Xs4pNNCd
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOz3Wwh9bR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEBqqS3tOQ
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNjaFe3aj2
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZa3HjKhnH
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnb36XAOsJ
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFlcWigcnu
Raskeria: “My bad.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeiUazbiyH
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdQswJOyfA
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KaR9QFcsE
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EEcfg4Ym7
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkbZDqSgka
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3Zu9qRacC
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTdiJVaklz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpQ6tiCjRB
Jake: “…Fine.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRq8MiVtny
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI15ZEjM4ki
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4NcHeSFjY
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClsAxb4Nkw
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUlVBFCUfH
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFSLXjbL5s
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XXtgWwb5J
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ307smq9v3o
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHEvYl0jZ3
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUgDrhHm1u
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdz7HAlpge
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDSI6xt9tS
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnPLbrFTvr
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXEenSHaL3
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvnsSwG55A
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0CT8Co8Ty
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXSH5XEQuL
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKZxJKSY9X
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16hSzOOsNp
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiX9SYeuOdX
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXixY2E7M6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoksrAsM8z
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfCd8eufmv
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0WkbpWW9f
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgg7OUeewPo
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73SqLMm00E
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltWqW4bO3C
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vuWJQXDhL
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40jTgQMJha
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxEW8W7XLi
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CaJiSsZNc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJpEQ9GDUz
The distance between them became smaller.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35go9Wiv2g
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUzYSoflGH

Arcs of pink electricity started to form around her.

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoGRX4nvdS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFJD5SD4Hz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30oZn0FTFB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggM0v7Mwx7
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3inVXjfeog
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ95LhpsVmQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYCk85jVsJ
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIM9hcrtao
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgEWbiQjn9
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLFsHLXvpN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbDe1qw31h
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7e850TZUH7
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwxoOTffG0
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYvwDXaTsa
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjCBIpdKW8
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKtza6BHVq
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKZw5ZVzzi
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRNc93Okpv
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqz77zXpMo
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YqL4fZnIU
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JR9hthTCl
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡile2QwlRId
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06WrsHrPvg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxTEp06Jfe
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1cZxfFYU4
Louise 2: “Then would…this help?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIxbc4GSUQ
She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W17t08Af6
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxyG5LnNj8
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSYRT7KKey
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymX4byxQ43
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdWfMycO34
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfQp8kKGtR
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBu0tnoUK93
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAKfY1BC3d
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSOqrMtuym
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHxo5E7qgO
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJZ2PbpjpW
Bench: “By all means.”

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj5MPlzCn6
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxvjaWGPld
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau8RHgoaLZ
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1VC0Xbegz
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9co2X5puR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9BC88DbwU
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOZrlvNR5C
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4yhqSO688

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIqp31i2EC

Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNnM4nZ8Y0
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCUeK4qxmD
Jake: “I don’t care.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEwRtGUnfS
Bench: “You-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiTlVpesQb
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxy9k9UN7G
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOcG8HDSSw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA1BwJZ1f5
“Can you understand me?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwMC0UBM2o
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhvXW7ls8A
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdxBT64sSv
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjXNDvrF4H
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVKaE6WHMY
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYilykxykl
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7p4Ix2Jct
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHpN5JWAnI
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQYAHYgNkV
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa0Rvb5PtM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3vOjnrsCR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyTx2OX3tC
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDi03hQuxlY
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRHxws3BMw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPboAAurzPj
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmv1NS3Hmg
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzh6kDc2K3
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy7L4XlFPU
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYvKngOmIC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1RlrysLv8
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16C12HSDFG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DtZvryjwn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP76qzxW4u4
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH1REgSbpH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVlh5L5K5U
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaVRn5FjkF
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUxC9p6S8l
Jake: “Tell me.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYIHXyKJrA
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX0oJ7eeEf
Jake: “Then-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPRvxTyYsT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwc9BW3CG3
Jake: “Or?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAYyNlrgGi
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfd83X5YLy
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMJ1bcHexy
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOK8eDz3TxL
Jake: “…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCfsrCtjYG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahF263CWxz
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0ziSqjwum
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKvir7lCOH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KGx54IzfG
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtOHtg7BYx
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IWxxJCaMG
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt2hzG9TSv
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoinjDArzX
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW7eneOqqU
Jake: *Sigh*
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWj5JtAk7A
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJbIocg3PG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhpr5as0qp
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPT3lyV0Zg
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLyRIqp0tF
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaaCig2Lh9
Colbert: “Yes?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFtSbpitKZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxxy5SNdRn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzv5HHVUPu
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSJntIhNsb
[Louise’s Room]
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrkR4VOG20
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqpTLchJSm
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxbZKHJTYW
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJVhkuBh15
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAHlmD58tM
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HgkyxCwYt
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmB5XtHAGey
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiHDtH5V60
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBt3epcqTQe
…
…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ817zHzYKfq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt28jR9e9iY
‘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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl6IV80e6b
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosrssejMVR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZtsGWSBdt
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOvqJlXPOk
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf747Bzv4hW
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRXoKwLN99

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡengTEdhsYg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxMXZulgwP
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.
