Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAU4crwPZwMb
Mostly crossovers.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmUfiYfdRTm
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfn2RIoI6gh
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiCR0OXAxhB
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAtA2Y7xYVgF
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzfnUD9gUlN
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAVyTaIOIMvy
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAIKwwjqfj9i
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2rolPB88k8
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAlef7njphLn
637Please respect copyright.PENANA9XnIDuwDA7
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANALzu2FrKGIr
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAHP3FcfTrz7
A summoned familiar mirrors their master’s personality and elemental affinity. Who knows what hidden secrets their familiars may accidentally reveal to everyone?
637Please respect copyright.PENANAknX6AGItXQ
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAg2nUbh3tTy
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA64WHRDHTwY
Well, all but one.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA0OcU8IyqcU
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANASxvQMT3EHE
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAT7RB05TkdB
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA7LC9m1mM49
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAIQBzMojyhN
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdqgRUlRYLo
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAGUTmkfw0qb
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANA10xkej5q8I
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAgl8l7thhOK
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyL42e9kVpb
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
637Please respect copyright.PENANAr9MHhUb7KJ
“Louise the zero.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAqSvusJ46s0
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAn4XEFTtfmJ
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAn6RriGFsYH
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAcl7kuNOpF7
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAi4SQyIAlbs
Louise: “Well of course!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA8HDPbenxVz
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAUqmsrMdS2n
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKVuKvuGM8B
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!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAMDL9k32Rwr
“And so the die is cast.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANApUxKJelsB8
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAUjA5qu9Ymv
…
…
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWeh9aXIN77
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAm6ZIGIkT8Z
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAf8lLuNQXMy
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKlsFlxnIBw
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAc776w9er5H
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANARSrmBjo7OC
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzvo10vxrWC
Tabitha: “What?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAqCtEUx5m4U
Her question brought Slyphid’s head around to look her in the eyes. With their intimate bond, Slyphid was able to respond telepathically.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKEETDSBYu2
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdRCpXLl6Pu
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
637Please respect copyright.PENANAhUa2203jwk
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANABopGRehIjY
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAqzAw9gx2Jf
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAEAxnJGuDSy
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAys9o2ZKXpi
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfPD5Qxzl3z
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAGa3UEdPgGN
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAGDmgCeSNpo
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA5xX2rVZbGL
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAhwFP94xnVW
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA3X8uFIdUff
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAhKjO6SX0h0
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANArFu9NSVAgu
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAB2dzRTXwT9
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdzRa30pJii
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA3yZGJGIEQv
…
…637Please respect copyright.PENANADqo2NlDkGY
637Please respect copyright.PENANArZdTMj5KC5
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAt6m6qCU7y1
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdOOqcY4E5D
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAlfN43oFY1y
“Okay, who summoned us?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmEiemwwsuX
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAJj1ES8BRse
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”637Please respect copyright.PENANAqekTZa4RqU
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKDfzFtHezQ
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA3xHJ07HOLE
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA7Od7WKhMGd
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiIal9UNF4M
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmclT8lWEaF
637Please respect copyright.PENANAoGMzrCX7Ef
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAHc4UJz3uQC
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyTwPQqHqVw
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAtzPMik10hz
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAtS0HtNtx1W
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAM439MYDrZs
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAGeTa0s38XO
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAnB4F8ifzAK
She sighs.637Please respect copyright.PENANA71aZ5NlHb2
637Please respect copyright.PENANAM28bibTaeA
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAURrdASLWwK
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”637Please respect copyright.PENANArcm7hac8Z1
637Please respect copyright.PENANASTPkhcjE4L
Raskreia: “Sure, if you’re going to explain to us what in the nine hells is going on here exactly and where we are?”637Please respect copyright.PENANADVWbPOW20v
637Please respect copyright.PENANASxR2Po4Ko9
At this, Louise answers before the man could.637Please respect copyright.PENANAHtcKmdAcjS
637Please respect copyright.PENANAFnVGCbGGel
Louise: “You’re here because I summoned you all to be my familiar with the summon servant spell, and I am your master now.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAhK0TLXTvgF
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.637Please respect copyright.PENANAf9NTrKyVol
637Please respect copyright.PENANAwKjeXbZlZY
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”637Please respect copyright.PENANAFncM3Ppr3a
637Please respect copyright.PENANAxMMOpBizv1
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”637Please respect copyright.PENANAoPqEPUs57C
637Please respect copyright.PENANA0MVG2vzaVS
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.637Please respect copyright.PENANA30aYL3iYVA
637Please respect copyright.PENANAF5uchuVcOl
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAUY2L2Wvur7
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAtmEYpX07K3
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAVtXdRO7nmE
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAoTDA71sn6S
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAUuK2chnmOx
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAPlxqPvsmLb
“Neither have I, strange.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANArGLTZQXJTq
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyc9EfmKjhm
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAkNzOBW6PKu
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAUfu30rXVuL
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.637Please respect copyright.PENANALpv67w7dxN
637Please respect copyright.PENANA0bwHw3fOz9
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”637Please respect copyright.PENANAEGgzn1Z5Qu
637Please respect copyright.PENANAXZp2Qy7SZf
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAh4x95WRs1i
But that thought quickly faded away when the dragon growled. It drew itself up by stretching its wings down and glared at Louise.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAPSOE7R1zpz
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?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANADyQoCyCt7D
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANArbsJyO5hMz
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAoVjqbB6KuF
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAt1N6TeMRsq
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAFmZWhG0FV3
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAwjZzwoVxlK
Dovahkiin: “I for one refuse to become anyone’s slave. I simply want to return to the life I lived before this all occurred.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAuf9Ki2Sekn
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmbWoNzp2TQ
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.’637Please respect copyright.PENANAPWWuusmHN5
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKKWmfGEt1C
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAvKxOb45fxc
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAatjvUFTNbB
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAphPvv72fxM
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWp24PKYZt1
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.637Please respect copyright.PENANAGUFpD4aIAv
637Please respect copyright.PENANAVy5eYstn8N
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.637Please respect copyright.PENANAdtvQiruc5F
637Please respect copyright.PENANAeDectXqBMp
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAVlPNUsrlZ6
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAy10eUq9TG6
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAeaiadgkqVw
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAU4wcW31ydX
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
637Please respect copyright.PENANAEggYEyZKIo
“I have my own reasons.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAAN8yxVMCRU
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAOF9rJD1bYo
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?
637Please respect copyright.PENANAcusbl52waP
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzAmmr0LPOf
Louise reapplies her rule of steel mask and starts towards the redhead. She let out an indignant, resigned huff as she raised her wand.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAj1nyr2qAaf
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfu5a5mIv0N
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Oh, pentagon that rules the five elements, bless this individual and-”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAHP7MuNw3Zd
637Please respect copyright.PENANAP82TlzWd6c
‘Did you think this was it?’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAHL9bnx42JC
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAYfUFBggtKi
“Louise!?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmEFq1QxzeF
Everyone, including the dragon, looks at Louise with concern. Before anyone could go to her and see what’s wrong, something else extraordinary happens.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAZhIflPZPqU
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyRc68sqbDm
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfHdioiWeSa
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAHfw1s8bB9L
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyBeuz94MTO
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiBj7Es4BDS
Colbert: “A golem?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAPadaXcEEg4
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANABjnS9V7Sab
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKrt0NgRdZZ
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAO0TGzUPj0j
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA8Xw0Cj15Hd
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiVq35B6VhG
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANApiAt8kZxfE
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAICdBBRGVPO
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAr9txBgXBwy
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAEzpSDpxwk6
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAIbuZWqeQFR
Guiche: “L-Louise?”637Please respect copyright.PENANAbYHzmV6gQx
637Please respect copyright.PENANAjmgebHsSNP
Colbert: “But how?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAQwUNUlcyOB
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAk6RlIy65LT
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAnl0xupOp8s
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAymz3v6uBSg
Guiche: “How dare-”
637Please respect copyright.PENANANWSIHnaave
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAUSeeTkZDTe
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzrMkqHJUi0
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
637Please respect copyright.PENANADrclpt9FCG
While this was happening, the redhead took Louise to a safe distance. She could help but she wanted to keep Louise safe for now.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAINRls1FunV
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAYexMRqbfRi
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANArKbb3dKR6C
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfvF8EGweY0
Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAEKYEp9EAiS
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAaV9i8TtzE5
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmKVmeb5SwX
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAQQerJeYRTd
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAFVRlGB5MHh
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2QJ3X444lo
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA3I4RsuAB8t
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAMtXyYqwvHn
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAe3nhH9o8fE
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA5zNyVCQMSz
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAIUbijxhJDF
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdd0DhPmNbp
Eventually, the sound of clicking reached her ears. She disassembled her shield and placed her hands behind her with her palms open.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAXnabvZY4Ey
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfRZnru2l2V
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAhMfjbgKNqa
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAJqyMyzDS7D
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANABn3zAIIY6J
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKk6jRs4e4W
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAZlV8QCYeon
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA5hlSRClKVk
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA6zjkLjivos
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAvz53tc3mEd
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAGr1FQ4VYl5
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWwsH4l2vWo
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAEOeBe3fS7W
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANANys60xn3CA
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA64LRUkzpei
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAs9Yd77ZCHN
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAcIW2RJGIzL
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANALYIaPP1OpL
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAp15PJyd0wN
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAvCRFsHdyrY
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAT4qpRH3lP3
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAh1MU8WmhJF
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAbQVE1JCein
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA5VRxibqa2g
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAqrXEpzVeWu
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA7YviLX9tRg
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAOjpsZOiNpU
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAIJJjxeJbIE
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA257rvAYSnT
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAA0Lp988jGG
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAaAaotJx73M
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA4oRkRnmY6x
They followed her order, many out of fear of the sight before them. The 3 golems slowly but surely collapsed into strange black sand.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAO2Y5GpN9V2
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAjWF8KEiFKm
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANABXdtyA8JRv
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzRlegVV1QS
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyNwjPNHyIV
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAwRkjti8v3z
Finally, the head was bulky enough to discourage any beheading. But the most important part was the lines connecting to the chest area.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdyBjZCgkWg
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAd1Sb74imz9
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAS2GhSS2Uf2
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANApG2JZjpxoP
Raskeria: “A what?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANANC4EbjQiWG
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAk2OYz1SxKl
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzz9Lr8rRd0
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWsEYq9ZwW4
Louise 2: “Go!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAhekfHKqmjZ
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAAlSKWdJPAe
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAU5Bhmi1lN9
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfKQOSqR4pf
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfLuZMDAidZ
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAq4jLkRHIp0
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAjKFEBdYwdE
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAKwFEIawZro
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdo8EZpBPC5
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAJZF5T3JWre
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAnMdgseaXlo
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAefsvaw0CSf
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAb5IsKfMY3k
Raskeria: “My bad.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAhdUdI1TVm5
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAFNmlsxlFdR
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAd4oOZp5jKm
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAaTTIc183ND
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAZOMZIQyFdK
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWQ5UhBrw1F
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAbokUYeOirE
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANADV3vl1Kz2H
Jake: “…Fine.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANACcqC8Bize3
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAYYJVPsMLSG
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAIWNTIlolqg
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANATA2IHz6nwp
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”637Please respect copyright.PENANABunLLTXK27
637Please respect copyright.PENANAV7Xtk8ehlR
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAt5qKOaB5yN
Raskeria: “Dovahkiin, this is all you. I’ll focus on protecting everyone while you distract it enough to prevent it from firing.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAs7P8DaDOkR
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANADRSmgVTScn
Despite Dovah’s best efforts though, Ravager wasn’t that bothered by it’s attacks. That was until Dovah started using more unique shouts.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA0HnchCepB4
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANATdYByvQtve
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAtJrD0s0rUY
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAXkwl9gUWJI
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANACo0PtUCIQe
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAYrR7Uwizjc
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA5kRMw0oH5t
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAnf5xbE77ih
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANANwAvCJB3G5
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAeNN1ZmCvDM
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAOtexjmaxWt
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAqD1rSCVOVb
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAV4KXAHyXh4
It abandoned the dragon and went to delete the living weapon. But before it could, another welcomed surprise appeared. The final and winning variable.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA5cFoe8NtK1
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAe6QnFyZY4d
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAJDbRCB9PyH
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAh4JIr0w4Nt
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAgfbVejzH2W
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANApxu3kNT9C8
Louise 2: “I don’t know who you are but if you can understand me, keep it down while I end this.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAFBuDsUhZnQ
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAv2BWGWk8b7
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAQuFnwxn4Pj
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.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAsoF7LyThR8
The distance between them became smaller.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAG1nLX4bC7u
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANANwVZAqXZlu
20 meters
637Please respect copyright.PENANAEJyHGAr6pB
Arcs of pink electricity started to form around her.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA99NgSVRZTU
15 meters
637Please respect copyright.PENANApCdyYT4iYD
She opened her eyes; her vision was surrounded by plenty of warnings but she dismissed them.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAq9HGRzAhYV
10 meters
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWtaUp2Ibqk
Louise 2: “Adapt to this!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA4xl4sCuWwh
5 meters
637Please respect copyright.PENANAgxxafyxt8C
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANALZR3iDTeRV
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAZv55RMfPxD
The sonic boom made it into everyone’s ears. Students screamed and even the fighters had to cover their ears as the ground quaked.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAh0rmMrKrHo
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiupwKXw52l
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyBXItG8gi9
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAe6ZeU8Bzdr
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANABYHMbqC6CZ
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAwZQFIIvlMJ
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANANdGrOfEbbG
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAHn0spV1gAy
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA0J8petAxnu
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAdfV9GBdxwn
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAznH2xr0QDT
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2PnDzpNxHC
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAX1ZCF2Lf9V
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAInXiUDpEWJ
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANArwpVyifMX7
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAROBN1iX4KR
Bench: “Listen to her, I know what to do. Trust me, she’s in good hands.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAvVH516Kh9c
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmnZrg00cCi
Heeding his words, Raskeria and Colbert moved out of the way. Bench approached Louise 2 and a blue line scanned her entire being.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAYPZV8XB9Ir
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWH7z9XyRVu
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAPrHTWXg4Nv
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANACmDeZDQlJc
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAQZVhyD5lzj
Louise 2: “Then would…this help?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAxVCmMG2Obw
She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
637Please respect copyright.PENANABwtWrg9IQK
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA5lbJzkzIIx
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA1YHwrfH6xj
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzDmAzIWNKs
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAlfKnwsLszd
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiLU1nPfwXS
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAaNsmskFLtI
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANATXCbRgS6fU
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANABkAOTOItoz
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?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAftW7H5DItn
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANASYY4bOiVm9
Bench: “By all means.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAuZJjokRMku
Louise 2: “So…can you…d-do it Bench?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAAbamM2yCRW
Bench: “Do you know who you’re talking to?
637Please respect copyright.PENANAYDZ5YJNryX
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAthja91gt15
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAxRakP5mJur
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANApbSRVIe4VT
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAW0Ang4BI3R
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANApmMCwgJHhy
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA6i5vjuH6FX
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAvwFN6IECFA
Raskeria: “Calm down Jake, do you really want to fight everyone here?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA7HW38s6Msp
Jake: “…I’ll do what I have to.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2U3DVXrreF
Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWFVbPQQfnG
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyBgOYnGo7u
Jake: “I don’t care.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfPBdZHVJz5
Bench: “You-”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiPOR9jQSmK
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4mqzA3g5n
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2FDePaASf4
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAWWOEUm7mNY
“Can you understand me?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAL9URV95S3X
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAZMMkvMskaf
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAraJFCSq6ZT
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAZYj6awG9N3
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAtqqIxMg0n3
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANASplFxNfJKc
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAHezzCVJRBo
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA8J3FcCs18e
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAT2T008UtVo
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.

Zander: “I hope I don’t have to come back here and deal with you Jake. I rather we be friends than enemies.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA0fBvrEEDGB
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANArXsKE1Ia7P
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2WYRobfBgg
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAuOrVwaLbGO
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…”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAEcByoZHEUH
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA3fp5bCBSss
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANANxVV7tp6gE
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAT2p1BxGLpt
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAASKzm3CMAz
No way to get back to New York meant Blackwatch ran free and the only family he has left was in danger.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAQBjIIq9Qt7
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAbGNNw85bUx
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAPMV72hIi4m
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!”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA0j6S72EkYT
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAXjZn7ehunS
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA8MmzqKetNw
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfN50MVCdiu
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAxFoC8Q9Hue
Jake: “Tell me.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAsmj2RhN7wh
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA4guu5IJmwd
Jake: “Then-”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAroS8tSkhYP
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…”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAuC0fUzg4HT
Jake: “Or?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAQrlzkHf2Bz
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAN3LctGlpA5
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA38pssuS6ut
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2kaP6qkSfx
Jake: “…”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAi5uq7EftbW
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAphJSm9MZOQ
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA7uggkb8UcA
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA3ywkinlaMp
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANABTi7R29znk
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAj0tjnWxB18
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAlk98OuhdPP
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAmFvACiO2X8
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAfPuQc4RkPf
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANA9O0JIiQ6Bn
Jake: *Sigh*
637Please respect copyright.PENANAL1QjYP0Kio
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAvKvpMMTquD
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANANrpnEo1Rmk
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAiP2I5sD2lV
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAaNaKOhLMJY
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAu0Ljl82AEF
Colbert: “Yes?”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAo5mcl98FW0
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAzfO7ttmwKw
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA65e3l3lVAI
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAYPm6urPKtp
[Louise’s Room]
637Please respect copyright.PENANAUw94sVfRf0
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAW1NZHlbuj0
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
637Please respect copyright.PENANANzLsIemEP0
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAXZnliTCPKV
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAT02C9IBPYh
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2xTUWKQr15
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyrnh39WgmI
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.”
637Please respect copyright.PENANAyHyA1Yycqc
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAxImyL1jhpA
…
…
637Please respect copyright.PENANA1Ub6PWibE1
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANA2GWCFN7db0
‘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.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANAg2Uy4rj63Q
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
637Please respect copyright.PENANATtBK0dVh7Y
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAgg0xzmHpKg
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAg1pnPzqXIc
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAAgNB1R1iDt
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAcFISXdf3va

637Please respect copyright.PENANATXJKo78RRX
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAVBkCCziGeh
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.
637Please respect copyright.PENANAPyvpTCpQ7S
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.
