Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F6c3XQH6Y
Mostly crossovers.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ390NrUcUzE
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7IaBtmQFl
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlLYeAEwsS
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPh41NCJp4
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0m6ycLDwa
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBVuSYRsjM
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVp6488z7W8
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eGRfZxev1
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Srs7e8wSq
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhG4aV7WDj
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaa3P9eAgz7
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9RFcXfi8Z
A summoned familiar mirrors their master’s personality and elemental affinity. Who knows what hidden secrets their familiars may accidentally reveal to everyone?
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKdhAZtE0I
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfxNVMvRSE
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡes5EsXBQQJ
Well, all but one.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlnyE0Da7e
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHZ6sHaBfu
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA4z3JDNGX
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6LUHarHhw
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpZVIjLFMe
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTQuyZeHrY
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjyIgvlDTj
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdywH2iWA5B
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7GLAH4hqR
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPnJaVTOKK
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVcyEdHIEz
“Louise the zero.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmugP5abv9
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAlojJtOto
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBQRpmSfGU
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOREI2XGqK0
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmemYd8Saa
Louise: “Well of course!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNigiYA1fQ
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6GY60RdN6
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRx1tg1APr
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!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BKo5uqapd
“And so the die is cast.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDquAaATsm
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH71Z0PDpE
…
…
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJPGZX83Lh
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUqPxXPYv4
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQpUbONdrP
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumcIAgQToa
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UaY6IlsB1
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClkxBbAvnl
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMff1uYB8q
Tabitha: “What?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfijbugsVXT
Her question brought Slyphid’s head around to look her in the eyes. With their intimate bond, Slyphid was able to respond telepathically.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO1z482cXf
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0ZQpRTan1
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMg0CAuSDS
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWwTgE3TIS
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNmJKgwZLC
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7FJ7zmcLK
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EhH7ZwOSs
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RL0D22fsI
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyLSRVmjNY
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxFNBKiWhX
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAGvLNzUKe
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0ABPF8Lel
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFRkIk4j64
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK25Iyc8s3m
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lReCP2wjc
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIx7aB5KqwR
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64X36qbzKi
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo3YxzjrH1
…
…564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAVb00iYmm
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigi9a5PbGb
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AZWUIizlT
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDtx0puIV7
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOVSi3dDgZ
“Okay, who summoned us?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFflISXQkV
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZHEySt31A
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEJ5o5ls4T
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtt9yyuh4h
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xYDo0Dk1x
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ406wdVuOZg
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWQUycqilW
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B97rSHS0L
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbz54nz6NSN
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPL5Zh37XEI
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLktKOj0gCs
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXveMUWqjnz
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhhhLxeRfr
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr3RbcSrYB
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZogZBHM7ZR
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt3qZGpITB
She sighs.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYbANupmeu
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEV7wWYNpf
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCBMN2QcSH
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRS5sznWiY
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQmCz5M1Cn
Raskreia: “Sure, if you’re going to explain to us what in the nine hells is going on here exactly and where we are?”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdDrgrafZg
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlIi1HzYPE
At this, Louise answers before the man could.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGjJRvviJi
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3GuhtPCoa
Louise: “You’re here because I summoned you all to be my familiar with the summon servant spell, and I am your master now.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlDe0tVoK6
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQqEucDRuu
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAGiUduKC9
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QCe0i6v9B
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4Nf4FBB7g
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqZDE0uw5s
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPsIJpBAJg
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vIiDhOzYm
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjOqerx5vW
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdQPoN4aZ8
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIdQ2M6ao1
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZaPcC9OEw
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QBZBHTyHV
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGCZjNAdtH
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgGne9DK2A
“Neither have I, strange.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpBw6NhGPs
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnY54ujkZzV
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOi4iEPKKM
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7B2EnkHnE
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpobqfI79w
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUavmvPKdeP
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup3QwHzhBt
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HuaKKXrh9
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HxtSUoPpj
But that thought quickly faded away when the dragon growled. It drew itself up by stretching its wings down and glared at Louise.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmQZpjsqbC
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?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWMB9DXt6z
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQGHqQ36CF
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEChAvNmgz
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFc7o1VraXq
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40STWImh1w
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2KTYOR4bH
Dovahkiin: “I for one refuse to become anyone’s slave. I simply want to return to the life I lived before this all occurred.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcWgL2TW1T
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgVnG4SbYc
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.’564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQEidaYRyZ
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSii8B5096
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bAu7xrgl4
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwNN9aLVyA
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujKG2k17ef
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSILh15zdO
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.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyQcp9adgC
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfPexSbqnI
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFwcJaQelZ
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj2QjXm3SL
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBu9d0QggL
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVjSAWK4SL
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNWJO0KxN5
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwatsXFfA4
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnSAjFXzuT
“I have my own reasons.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8wwpnvEZm
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ8G0ASkOp
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?
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglzYZP4feq
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk1kblyUfL
Louise reapplies her rule of steel mask and starts towards the redhead. She let out an indignant, resigned huff as she raised her wand.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2lfYCBAUl
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin381Z2esZ
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Oh, pentagon that rules the five elements, bless this individual and-”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cvOBvs7FQ
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9XbbWFg7Q
‘Did you think this was it?’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyck0SDQp07
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Wo9jM9sAI
“Louise!?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaFgGnunqA
Everyone, including the dragon, looks at Louise with concern. Before anyone could go to her and see what’s wrong, something else extraordinary happens.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47V33ixLFV
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmowJghOrz
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUjLW4yuhL
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnRJLBhbtg
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnydRoyq7o
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs0luyNuwv
Colbert: “A golem?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyrqltkVeJ
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6eViU0sf4
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9vgMjtbLA
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZPHqaPypK
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkdZMi5sYw
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5HYdNSYK6
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbjneRb5RD
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKs6KAdAne
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTueRpqlPjd
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYWgq19g52
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdV1jP4iCG
Guiche: “L-Louise?”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9n5OLCKKq
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAE1sDrmAj
Colbert: “But how?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQTO9lh5Xp
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3udoXgI0K
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2ZpEJpypz
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNpnP7KgtO
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb0qgitqs7
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYRSNOrEJY
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5fqzHf55I
While this was happening, the redhead took Louise to a safe distance. She could help but she wanted to keep Louise safe for now.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSpHG4NKlS
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyJ7W5s1e5
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnE1mjeiCl4
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlqaVQ8h7b
Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1TEXS8nIl
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFUOhNBJWO
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntOSBYD3kb
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1eIOdFFCs
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99KHIKYfpp
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjsflrP23V
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2NkJTXZXP
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2ctdJozae
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ggV2orFv3
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7znNYgPqTo
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUnrmLrbZr
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1Tdl8FS5E
Eventually, the sound of clicking reached her ears. She disassembled her shield and placed her hands behind her with her palms open.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmFBB5aXBJ
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKFdOEN2Ai
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NgF7FSNvX
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOp0k9aMAd
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xC73Nqwj1
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeUnxbw64G
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K35LH8HHq
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizqdjuY0uI
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswFfbvrU8y
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvONFJYwIze
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5q0XtE30v
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoWtb7NkKw
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau3jBsSjZx
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx49k7l0GUK
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnPpWspGE4
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTum8YzZIT
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNHPE8UErA
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E7gkF8PpH
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1YOo9Xd1T
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2AWi6S8zl
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJUfW2v9d1
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCgmejCote
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRCK4AKRki
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWANl7Pk547
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnu0gYcvci
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqjiEc35nF
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66pfPAW8YJ
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxlJDTCx0N
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMwQq4Jw6W
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkikpLyUUs
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2ZnSu3RNM
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoozAmyVQN
They followed her order, many out of fear of the sight before them. The 3 golems slowly but surely collapsed into strange black sand.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooxCddDtj4
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vauSOe6uk
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IgobUNF0n
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2siyHNPgJ
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18mnv0ThUQ
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cvJdiKlN4
Finally, the head was bulky enough to discourage any beheading. But the most important part was the lines connecting to the chest area.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SANzZUIXp
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7x9TkDLTy
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcD50gRHOiK
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3RcMQBaur
Raskeria: “A what?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazfZHWYofu
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6CmxYlCyT
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSE1FB1aPd
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVu0OIgUth
Louise 2: “Go!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8M2grmwlH
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI76YhMAtu
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxBoNC3Bz1
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjeAPOheex
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXY72GwRAT
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj99ERyQri
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9L4o8URSy
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrUXgcCezi
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO83hBSDHtZ
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFRXKVD882
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtk7AznaPaj
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEmIzjZfuG
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKDRrJoTNn
Raskeria: “My bad.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhoMLcwvxC
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe5753zw6V
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeHLLnbIZf
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtuisIMEFj
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEKyIX3RIO
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsh4uMmgF1
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn9HRer93J
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZsfohg0ay
Jake: “…Fine.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnzCL5a6wr
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmdqfzI2Jz
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOLaTZDbqJ
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6vXW2Mb1L
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCBt1T05b6
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkE3WkvhTg
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRVmEaZpO1
Raskeria: “Dovahkiin, this is all you. I’ll focus on protecting everyone while you distract it enough to prevent it from firing.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZOf2qENw6
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBGYTNZL6Y
Despite Dovah’s best efforts though, Ravager wasn’t that bothered by it’s attacks. That was until Dovah started using more unique shouts.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd8QCTBMvx
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMOrNvrqQH
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cl2CkdyBM
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoJpfyfreB
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYFHJQ8Nmx
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ152duCHqqx
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADN71JwVkU
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQskz9lLjCe
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPD3KU7JLT
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGcOBo6p0B
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZriFhsrh1
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy2SpePpnY
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg09ITq2eK
It abandoned the dragon and went to delete the living weapon. But before it could, another welcomed surprise appeared. The final and winning variable.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxL5N2uUQO
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIw29uZIqb
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprM71u8rdd
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxaZZjNYYm
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUoMnLx4he
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2L3SDjAiu
Louise 2: “I don’t know who you are but if you can understand me, keep it down while I end this.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg18jfHbjun
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CUCIRUqy5
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJfrfMN4uU
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.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lPJg8im8I
The distance between them became smaller.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4JQxDkCA7
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIEjr0v6AJ

564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ98596zPRT
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIIu7DhZbV
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6thhKh9Pk
The sonic boom made it into everyone’s ears. Students screamed and even the fighters had to cover their ears as the ground quaked.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJyJ0VEZ8R
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV89e3h2XU
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHSv0ojSo6
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7gE5r26O4
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn61r3W4Dva
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv5RPdqyA2
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt0MhvDsbp
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGeikoDemn
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0dnfN4HYB
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeGaRUHt2D
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWbBeYSXc1
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oqwCmdhPE
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OmbQ8hnaB
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SBhzviK6n

564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsBWTFBn7z
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”

564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMQ5ysqUiT
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKG1z2qHBVi
Heeding his words, Raskeria and Colbert moved out of the way. Bench approached Louise 2 and a blue line scanned her entire being.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiplYK9PxU
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbdv2yY1kQ
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoI3vEDgJG9
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUu81IP3xz
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAUbw5iqff
Louise 2: “Then would…this help?”

She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVaPt57xhr
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zzUBsjlum
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8mYkKiHOL
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopRExAzPY8
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZ3rp92MI6
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB0pOEQerv
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSggXeibagR
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pkhPIj81L
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoB0U4A2oT
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?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1AUAJ35Eu
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hh8DLKprS

Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuys7FDcB57
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAVCdxYKq7
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkSsxdRGmu
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenVIqG3fp5
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArVddBH3Vo
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFrBBCZxcp
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw8CUYL9rs

Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4F01Hgqtl
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKlED34HXy
Jake: “I don’t care.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXi2q7cKMI
Bench: “You-”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VrVsnwCxv
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGg303qIhm9
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEVQC84dVx
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXkxgbiEE9
“Can you understand me?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy4O7DoOnK
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaktnB2jcde
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa60NKhyhV
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFANPh4qcO
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNFVnGyBPT
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE40GsSyauw
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXxpZvcpEJ
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N7HHYAxMy
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2aTUmmXTJ
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5L7xt8wHfc
Zander: “I hope I don’t have to come back here and deal with you Jake. I rather we be friends than enemies.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYJv9ESV4G
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH1KAnoQUj
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUXG3LIgzI
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoRVoJhS9w
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…”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXeCzLyOEJ
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gyn5ffsrO
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7VuZ7lT9o
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sWJ2kXEm3
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLXoAApdZA
No way to get back to New York meant Blackwatch ran free and the only family he has left was in danger.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYWR2YyGkF
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRLBEVn1OI
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZJhIlgiXl
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!”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JsWzOMJZE
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoGmyMqSom
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoDLLwLvtW
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzUDKj1tFW
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk7W7tirgD
Jake: “Tell me.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mw2CQQjkC
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYfWz4x7pg
Jake: “Then-”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6DcY6TBBL
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…”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rKJkcvU5i
Jake: “Or?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjFiqBFzoh
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwIMGquSRr
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUBpbHVmcW
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHGTC9sK4P
Jake: “…”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuQkxWDuvT
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYp1RnR9zr
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbph0EgxWD
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OtM0eXUQp
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlr0Y65EDjA
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb78EPzGYc
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HEPKLBjLO
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhXZ8eBgTM
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppP6JRLKN9
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq1xoWC3nK
Jake: *Sigh*
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwrSXTNRpQ
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszbExQmaS4
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvXgibd39m
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmGTs5ZJUP
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaXVKqEsjV
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b5TPOw8Nv
Colbert: “Yes?”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5Op26niOX
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwgmsIHwo9
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmppqu7hCik
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRy0VANMif
[Louise’s Room]
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oTv9UOSuC
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FeX2Wv7YQ
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEF2Cub7c8
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6NK8lhs6X
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlALr9qDE7
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnihw4Gp6E4
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZp6Zt9XMt
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.”
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhzE8HyuyN
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkEK71dUvR
…
…
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh1wZizzN1
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqrJdkJWCj
‘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.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFZyEUxYMI
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzL0BdhxEPj
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfucXm2bXLY
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWD2QjbLGK
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa07L5ETgSG
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOngIXiQGwv
‘Let the games begin.’

564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjEiGjhhBo
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4rvFH6jpt
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.
564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5zlZArNfJ
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.
