Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyecaZ2G75j
Mostly crossovers.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2Ze1NR3WB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nNBUDBI8U
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVJC3CyfKd
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ33ijGmy6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6sJeSxJD1
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8Id6Om2gI
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsZw3AuwgF
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsOiTYOUGf
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHQFVM9q7k
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreGw128AQg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLqgBdDdxv
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLZ1t6S1fS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3qnNN33RL
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoIMvzflq0
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK7CRIEPHL
Well, all but one.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNI1N6yhtb
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KlW3uaGE6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTs0iaRdyz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PgVSzchwH
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51SLbfWJmT
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhZEi8ptj5
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsV384nKqs
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ844cwEJP4F
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXzey8sBFr
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwR7p3ILAd
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTWfGxw0j4
“Louise the zero.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjjBcJSVrn
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3docapYnV
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jC5W8Z7p1
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrSrIy1qHh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogh861gR04
Louise: “Well of course!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP2qisrZDS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxpo7Z2DrL
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AO4DSXeh0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVEbIhe7Gc
“And so the die is cast.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcO0NQx4QWM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErMfEFBgo6
…
…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBxVJDqfCc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikcBWTyAoO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0bueJY45C
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡip8x52iblZ
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7lKHI4MAw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGxfmFjlKu
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabjqTgiUgW
Tabitha: “What?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1AZJDkcFJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0veFElZhHX
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05qBiqjfAF
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb56X9odxjI
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgqqccX3ZF
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO61FfRQOG
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKvOY3uvM0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDjdxThgxK
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWAPLmreBc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qdg9Um5un
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDUtHuylUh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1cE7A4YLh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfQFio3NT8
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5fxZFmjpM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6hQ2UeAeu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZdFhGRd5U
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTcnWyo2j2
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUK1nWkrIg
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaW5jJakSe
…
…985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjd1BSUGm0
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHersg6IXoM
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc73RlCF1NB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNVmFndW4j
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3Ye3BwBvh
“Okay, who summoned us?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaS9sfcm0L
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76Ynb7iyd4
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HxNz7JmhR
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2oAGhOapq
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSohDBDm0i
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YWcratYws
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc6lToODwo
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1bkmw5yLY
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2waiNctpp
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBdeZZuI87
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HEj5VN6vG
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpExQkNcZNT
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM2hSpdXKH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZX9DfcrJg
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLV81fbvTOZ
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtM2lhWoave
She sighs.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EFl6CYpf4
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs7kxguPLw
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxcJphmHtR
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqoLOgjNmk
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQw28GJxiy
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjkNbZ9POR
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcfrBlIVrp
At this, Louise answers before the man could.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgpLPzbuEc
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElAKMOdJsX
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFvvcF1VFj
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXN4ZzWhIv
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLINxu3dMNy
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdT4ligvA9L
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRtp05Wit4
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ19eHimWR
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8ZByZognP
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjziQdkL3zu
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNBZEccbF0
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCuUaMkAGa
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5Hw6YgaWk
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv3FEvuUNu
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtS7VCsPmxk
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyFCjbwuVb
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8NPokvEQN
“Neither have I, strange.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaT8aapBW9U
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvFNMjWEbk
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8C5PSEW6G
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaXbTSAp4i
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlujtfS1cfa
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslI5lsxUqt
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34n3lItDny
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPpM5MbDvq
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzcmISQ8K1
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP0Y0zxXx9
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5L4Q2lsiQ
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfdl8kLZi0
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCV7vX5V8S3
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmzD5vyTpe
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15RG1NUI0j
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua8f8vQsl4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhJzCu2JEn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1AFXcn0Wv
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGqXWRMChc
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiooGmyYOt6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTAMUpYQeF
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17KLHdOB2B
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlbvEQfl4N
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOofEeb6L0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5dkX8eOAA
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1jnqhAo2R
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbNXh3tkld
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoE1uzTuWa
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGNe2DMbL5
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubUO2VdFPi
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNPpaLu3iI
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88Mb4Zm2iL
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwlcjzOEv0
“I have my own reasons.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCdLCAZqeQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2wkuGnHia
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHkTsuvcKT
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJNWeVFYbI
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9NpzsFGZE
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTQ2QjAina
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL6g39z4O3
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDBF10aT4t
‘Did you think this was it?’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AlaFBVO0i
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIVSIxQrsn
“Louise!?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJxrg8tkpm
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv6QicC7oA
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf98UWFbFu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9VqUJDLQw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1m9l6aVff
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHomkuzSyIp
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmz5NttZ7PN
Colbert: “A golem?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2rLJ1Zdtt
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01YQBiqdQO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLtJBPgsq1
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBiYs6HggZ
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFmLUvTP6b
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYDdK8QR2K
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbmRDNlDAj
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBB56U49wS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLKoGAAaxz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkQ7JOO7DR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9ZZgfIQBl
Guiche: “L-Louise?”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpmE05M9L2
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fudhedgIh
Colbert: “But how?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdQjHD5Be0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZjGriqNSW
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkiW0JUOKR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvlpmUfY7h
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ7OglQBKZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPn7Dqc9ht
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGknZIZlu5
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQCaLxO6ml
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UFvDKESQ2
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrjjwYd418
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sqmkTemJL
Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJG2Jdb1S7
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkt1VUqBaD
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoKjQd7w0l
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrdZXEophc
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzl1jJAt94
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RE0oXjWEK
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxjlQUrRyh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIKBaMg46H
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40Ft1o5KgM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZD2NF9sfsN
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpJhWmM2GV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dNt3BEdZq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUZwgO7iS6
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eFuP6bWeV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32kJzVjNI4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPY40KMlhr
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzR7HjeiUx
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrXAsQ3pHW
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqrwBIzuRP
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFsMDWQbOV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFSXPehSV7
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LSI7NVU71
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pcehZObLk
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoHlHe67wR
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJuVHugwfP
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34EoeAelxp
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDtR97lJCh
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3A6xMCw81
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzFzhdvYVP
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbIHcrwPxn
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYR5qrtGetN
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XYgX7yraQ
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc1ARxeMh3
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOsaKtSAz7
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAcBAUGVXf
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwSzofy3Nv
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oItXUCGJh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvk6o73KMis
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d043KwaU2
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rrTI2E4dR
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefCb8n0BD3
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbw2bnisKr
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlVrftEbVN
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4cl9pQqsa
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUkRHaQgiA
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzsy5KbUhh
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNssQomNRO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff1KW8Id6D
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEHQrILbtw
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5VAoWmA9T
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmDZ2zNZ37
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID5tCUsCkX
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer0Bkl1o1H
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7wlYUcvAo
Raskeria: “A what?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGItjsBvk2
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQpaHyh5Py
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywgACzpo68
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMmr1YsZvB
Louise 2: “Go!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMi8R2ccdF
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VOcCvDOQs
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRa8pWr7mJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEohzfAvj8i
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RWiPcTpi7
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2j7hYD2Z4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXmCxsQUVR
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpyMhga6Jp
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YOnKkAdHm
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVcjkie4ZT
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zbNTw8MHv
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaiZZJypCF
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl3cYr7J7x
Raskeria: “My bad.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpHhGqGW3j
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAecpJgrPYt
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR26lW79usS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfAZqdQPPw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sIylpsr2o
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgad1RLVd5
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeo1UXLZpu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6CkxJPWSE
Jake: “…Fine.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEviTIaP4cJ
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSFW39ThZf
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2B6WuhqQkh
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsoc8Z7bcQ
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17VfKgzpZF
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHeMMh85im
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOVBpNZK4S
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf3dQaDrOf
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84Kxw3BknP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP8bb5pod4
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TfHQiUJTW
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYuZXEXzPy
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpTdiQc0eD
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9zrhFlogP
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKSr4Pvm42
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd8g0lFGjX
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFjXaLi2km
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy0JdQbFIZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZUzfpO3GB
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFuhu65yFv
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzU8hgcyc4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrI6JZNgZru
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfmrHisNKf
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoyAa0qqDN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eKrAmDBmN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLEdmixzxO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVR8QQptHa
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvYxBrziCw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4d1pjT6Ou
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6MmBGg36d
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVlrkrikC4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEGDY0CoGM
The distance between them became smaller.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZaV99nkAZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiHYoqJpKv

Arcs of pink electricity started to form around her.

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocXyUkoPvG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDC4vMWAPV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAfY01wo2L
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vtNkBJLxn
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX4DdKyZFx
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZzbUNOgJM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhomI6VXUdo
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn6Ti3FXne
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPMb2dCWNy
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYw1qkAZtul
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoin00SJl3
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxoUp1W0pM
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlLpqGyDCe
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ0THkXm8B
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrKNV3SITt
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIClnE6vDHc
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKIgIiT1r4
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcuMlIRFDP
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKsqNMWOKQ
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbfMkWzSwG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkT33PyP75
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsisZ6BhCWJ
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vvkiZa0E5
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V7NrXAmzs

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUexcCT4rg

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpXR017cRb
She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjI8VEZy7X
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4oPAeOMiX
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhosAJL99Jk
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRXXTbhgtd
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBwL5ynoPJ
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqx42hTN7j
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg3gClpWOV
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeos90xVXH
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcxVrp1H8d
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvErJjFfgC
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31jcLSVUal

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDmSOXcGRG
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEcAyFEiWG
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYQmjqp9QA

985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtID5iDZ6Bm
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY5lalxutq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHWT5w0eKu
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYggvGFvE6G

Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPUJda3JUV
Jake: “I don’t care.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvJA04PKjf
Bench: “You-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofdCx1Jv5R
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDHsWdccZz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoVySE0XYM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRTksgNhqf
“Can you understand me?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXsnjL0dJj
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67F7UPjUl7
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJqnPDNIOS
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq427GDyfxZ
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrSj8tfGd3
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjZXjs0zzr
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORGJPzOwKY
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviSNx2QHhY
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvmip32yQ9
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojjdFDuj0P
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIZ7CXI0BG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfhIzHp0HH
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIGCRul8Wg
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjztxuNo3Zb
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJJP4Vdh9w
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwlwznedcv
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs0MZ3BeIR
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJV6dnoxBA
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNJdctlaJc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdZICm1xbz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2hLeQph6D
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzPERieiP2
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklE48pEmog
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gH4uu0KRR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtgqpaAwEs
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItZYXqkOLG
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxd7VpPfPd
Jake: “Tell me.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndKtcVaoc0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqccQ2lW1O
Jake: “Then-”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywW0AURYc2
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Om47EI6YB
Jake: “Or?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygxtIMB6FE
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkZMOigOVp
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGqAQuEIYr
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X9fXePjzk
Jake: “…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQD1KGzpR7
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJDctwwWJF
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2em6QOYb9T
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHaAzJcDwB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbdEd7gMJC
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84vtzBEKBi
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfz4snsSzP
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9npiHidUE
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCic03jZr5
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVSZVPn5s8
Jake: *Sigh*
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhrnEMBbuT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPnEweXwpc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUou3qVaIFW
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAKt7HCAOj
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKrLBok2xK
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo1xgochiw
Colbert: “Yes?”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfNhebQgIR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fDj10lKTH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTLLwmVHdL
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP14OWYd3Y6
[Louise’s Room]
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLtnOlGoKi
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTJgbxveJG
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHZ9WMKm50
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc1Kba2rfU
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEIlJbcObr
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwPBGJ5eay
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLQBu2gSQ4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotPREnO4MM
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jS3pDlViW
…
…
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDVEYxHIIw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXdZD4cP1s
‘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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IQUHCjWna
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzE6b7NRLVb
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTJBKWzt1f
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljlRfm5g3f
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53Dbs9YdIn
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHTqxrKqHc

What do you think? Did you guess who was going to show up? Anyone OOC?
985Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfouT9yNrjB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52QNVFMbzl
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZH8BAbxAY
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.
