Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkiJEsccgFN
Mostly crossovers.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA3891pjzBzw
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAq7bOY2TyN8
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9rpfsX9Ge
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAh9busZdMHG
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZLALbqUfxd
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAbBNIYkacQA
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANADHF2NJl4Jf
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzNb46dDrbz
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAhJ8kqdbU2z
294Please respect copyright.PENANArgv7O8OaSv
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkq3Q6njMPk
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAO5kw0LrwMQ
A summoned familiar mirrors their master’s personality and elemental affinity. Who knows what hidden secrets their familiars may accidentally reveal to everyone?
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnmxuCE05wE
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAxj1HfsdT0P
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6zKBdQamgp
Well, all but one.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA4Z8nqpTFCg
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAO4oCDKOiey
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAepWik0Be13
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAx5WZACqR8y
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQMgb1E7FFi
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
294Please respect copyright.PENANASkeQqynkfl
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAeObc16W7Fn
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAbf6qjdzJzZ
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkF88fQgu1k
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzy6kUjWkNw
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
294Please respect copyright.PENANAY8n8VHcCdI
“Louise the zero.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1Ug6bS6Qm0
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA8ruj9xZueV
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA8Qij7yYn6o
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA2xZ3QKsg5p
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAfqLK4NDOVw
Louise: “Well of course!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6h8irYjGnB
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAObgCJoyvLc
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
294Please respect copyright.PENANARQd6VnEr4t
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!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAj2zWOqANYx
“And so the die is cast.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAO23eZbFsra
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWyx29L3XgI
…
…
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkqvymjTap2
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANARHntViVhRC
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAe30EbT4noK
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
294Please respect copyright.PENANALYqAYiKrdx
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzpAlqJY2MZ
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAi7pZMjkdZG
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAojHQYx6gvj
Tabitha: “What?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAX5oFwpNjAG
Her question brought Slyphid’s head around to look her in the eyes. With their intimate bond, Slyphid was able to respond telepathically.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAv6o6dQJKzm
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXgv1OOiF5g
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1giK7WTruq
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAhmW76v9j3S
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAv5wjHG6S8k
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAP7EIEbk0HT
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANATtqnOKynS6
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAmD2ORZ3ilN
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJGCK6Rwngg
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAdDU6e7zsA9
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAKzwCAQUGT9
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANABQz6cMiCuJ
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAHqKmJufYAG
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGgHLTssM4a
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAqpucRdZU30
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA7tuR2Y2dJR
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQnW8g7Tmw7
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAW4llWDYQEd
…
…294Please respect copyright.PENANA6rxKKwZhsx
294Please respect copyright.PENANAEeJJDYaos4
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAdQTKVYS0OI
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcHKiDfrUEk
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
294Please respect copyright.PENANARS1CIXooN2
“Okay, who summoned us?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAvc2TtL0GzS
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6UglnhYwk4
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”294Please respect copyright.PENANAlVI95wrOZB
294Please respect copyright.PENANAFTplsTvRZl
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJyccTVgtdb
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWJCPWCbZ5A
294Please respect copyright.PENANAKk9vOIyiSQ
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZUoyWAUKvt
294Please respect copyright.PENANAgmC952jp8T
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
294Please respect copyright.PENANApV04QHwoLc
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAj74wZdEsVj
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANA56pCci78T0
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0O44H8uemd
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZOhUNN8N6
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6A2QnVX2Cd
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnBqBzOZ3Jw
She sighs.294Please respect copyright.PENANAGXaEZeM1Gk
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzbDET0qLK6
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAdgGll6vFT5
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”294Please respect copyright.PENANAxxNOIeJzUS
294Please respect copyright.PENANA45Wsj1NtF1
Raskreia: “Sure, if you’re going to explain to us what in the nine hells is going on here exactly and where we are?”294Please respect copyright.PENANACNxr8cQTLV
294Please respect copyright.PENANARadSd4h7Qr
At this, Louise answers before the man could.294Please respect copyright.PENANAfycPHGKn0Z
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkXBpZYdxPt
Louise: “You’re here because I summoned you all to be my familiar with the summon servant spell, and I am your master now.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAqLPEO5507V
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.294Please respect copyright.PENANA2HICNyUlZg
294Please respect copyright.PENANAgd6Kg9ICEs
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”294Please respect copyright.PENANAiKYvJpnHd0
294Please respect copyright.PENANAyqsu0CUcmQ
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”294Please respect copyright.PENANAcUA927U8vi
294Please respect copyright.PENANANy0WG3IIKL
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.294Please respect copyright.PENANAZFOTC6DMko
294Please respect copyright.PENANAhxuFuuBsx3
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAShbD7nfy0q
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAtImFBxorTU
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAEgdOEydQJc
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAiGww3l3ktf
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAw7t2IJvZCR
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkns0dATCqG
“Neither have I, strange.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAziGhlwCTZI
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAL9MKqlZ8nu
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA769a7C1Gpu
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVSI9yhmIzh
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.294Please respect copyright.PENANATkucpLqRAl
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWyoYCGSjFS
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”294Please respect copyright.PENANAOAKL4iclbr
294Please respect copyright.PENANA2SS3oeDVlO
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
294Please respect copyright.PENANALc3HgjlKHL
But that thought quickly faded away when the dragon growled. It drew itself up by stretching its wings down and glared at Louise.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAI4TZmaRJYy
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?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAflrGknDHQt
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXYhUt5E92S
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAY4eY1w5cT7
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAax5rJLDTKB
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAHr1JnGnmsI
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1s8tTT0DhP
Dovahkiin: “I for one refuse to become anyone’s slave. I simply want to return to the life I lived before this all occurred.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANABjH8QG8jXU
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIbBlwcxPtR
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.’294Please respect copyright.PENANAbDf1B2WcU7
294Please respect copyright.PENANAR2Q4X7o490
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGSEtdNYGfs
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
294Please respect copyright.PENANABGNFKFshm7
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAuaha4GkDvJ
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAH30ZeHtm6J
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.294Please respect copyright.PENANAfdCB8xnqU8
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzKtSfdeDqi
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.294Please respect copyright.PENANAWxANr8fkEL
294Please respect copyright.PENANAfUXtTVLOoM
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGgO7TJah5H
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQMAd31krKB
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAlyehxG7xZR
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6lzSg60Iq5
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJrt6yjgEzi
“I have my own reasons.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGvjruHZ969
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAEYk67fjwX8
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?
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0FrFOVkWfi
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAAcgsiRBlV4
Louise reapplies her rule of steel mask and starts towards the redhead. She let out an indignant, resigned huff as she raised her wand.
294Please respect copyright.PENANALlhbWK7ldi
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAa5XdvL84me
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Oh, pentagon that rules the five elements, bless this individual and-”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnnVgHYa8uC
294Please respect copyright.PENANA5MJWTEQT33
‘Did you think this was it?’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAR7o42jN4Wd
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAjZNYU8bbOx
“Louise!?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1kIIQwNQAA
Everyone, including the dragon, looks at Louise with concern. Before anyone could go to her and see what’s wrong, something else extraordinary happens.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAxaSjhx37IF
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAvOr7DufUl4
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1Zy58qTRNg
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAC8G1tqBlXe
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZIjdAMogVh
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAntlw9cgtBS
Colbert: “A golem?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAdmCeEe2p4n
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAUpZnn5LIPb
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1HIxgFkQyM
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA7XQRtN6gpO
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA54vsTmJOWN
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAqiJ6bk89tZ
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAEp56IT154M
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAggmdzuYFsa
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANArEMUEosiZD
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcoT5UukDyp
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0pn4zF8IRN
Guiche: “L-Louise?”294Please respect copyright.PENANAdMUiu2eHCF
294Please respect copyright.PENANACalFC4p0Fn
Colbert: “But how?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVp5o7wDm4m
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0oXgt57O7h
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAA30hoRYhJn
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzhlv1Nabfo
Guiche: “How dare-”
294Please respect copyright.PENANADJTSXb1npC
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAM5JFkJrbrB
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkQl8YCvIq2
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAAYEIq23r6p
While this was happening, the redhead took Louise to a safe distance. She could help but she wanted to keep Louise safe for now.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAmQoA1ptoKS
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGechbk2UaU
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA7v2omUjp5v
Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”

Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcs4IL9ZY5C
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6GbtQryfqa
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAK3opZfWRo6
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAilS9bfdfCg
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJEXr0O2c7D
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXhrp9iO0fT
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9jqboJW9Y
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAyqiaNnwuSe
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAfg4NM1mpRP
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAqMZt0IMSws
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA3BeduLanIN
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANATcKuAkaDcn
Eventually, the sound of clicking reached her ears. She disassembled her shield and placed her hands behind her with her palms open.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAosIthcDrb6
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
294Please respect copyright.PENANALlZzglqsvV
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXc4PxOVsjB
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6ai8NoLHGI
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAowi5Yak4Gb
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAD9d2DZmlt4
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVUcDhiWKlI
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZmkwsn4Vgi
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6u8QzDpVz7
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANABEbuklzuUE
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAdeL6VhEOUH
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAq5rM43HesM
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcQT5pJ6MbW
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANALEl9BA8AAI
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJbJ2jDUeZC
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA5dDxoS6O4t
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQA7X76arxo
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANANyOqFs15Sy
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
294Please respect copyright.PENANArLf0L7Uki7
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAejmlNqUYXC
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYdwwyMzDBE
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAeTZZ1aGJMC
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnst1SWNC1a
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAKuY8M0lYvr
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAhFbm8R6jOY
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAL0l62ahQem
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAuMF9BnO5P5
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAbvU5QPUgs0
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAN28dZcw6sG
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
294Please respect copyright.PENANASVd2vlkLQe
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAgREe1MdvVW
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcKWQes6jBh
They followed her order, many out of fear of the sight before them. The 3 golems slowly but surely collapsed into strange black sand.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAeQ85z4AVJQ
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAucvcr2hNCw
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANATl0F5ZGoON
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZWQqC1Los
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANALFC0KBMvgp
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIdYPPs6g8O
Finally, the head was bulky enough to discourage any beheading. But the most important part was the lines connecting to the chest area.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAHyLHzBV0w9
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAPcLT42NaB6
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAmvIn18yaiJ
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAtXF4j0Wr7S
Raskeria: “A what?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAxSgrWLLk7R
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAlYPiB3L7c8
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAAY5XPL6WuD
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAyiQvsvUj0p
Louise 2: “Go!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAoKExvpqprl
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAddu9DKGgTt
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAEj8XuXJdFf
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAbI1Gvd96Pm
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAfq05WjzdBU
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIeWRnzgsZ4
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAvx0mkSwi1O
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6b361fCPuQ
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIWBcYVJWNb
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAmolfF3skwL
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANApN6RkLCi50
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAHZDwvrTmIT
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVkFurHLJgu
Raskeria: “My bad.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAMLkB1kbYnF
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXletofbeSD
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA2OgADkGgHg
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANArEMxucsBe0
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAuSiezGMeNf
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcOt8SpVnTh
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANABh67EkxU3A
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAs6aBx0bA1E
Jake: “…Fine.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYUhR5Cm7Hr
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAEVUHuCFlif
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAC2NTu5wv9z
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAt2YtRzIeHL
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”294Please respect copyright.PENANAkLEDqbwEQS
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWSjDsIRNs8
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1ShAKR5URG
Raskeria: “Dovahkiin, this is all you. I’ll focus on protecting everyone while you distract it enough to prevent it from firing.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAqMR3t9C0ev
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAs8hBrpIOkg
Despite Dovah’s best efforts though, Ravager wasn’t that bothered by it’s attacks. That was until Dovah started using more unique shouts.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAV2ffDbyyDk
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAtF87yY7J9o
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANALi6ZYX4CjR
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA9GTVL5qrIm
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAFWncGh9jar
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAPNwq2MfAdH
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1XymJJFvGt
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAoq4NBlJe7k
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANABiPwMKqWYG
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6jyS2bRHUE
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAg9Ooc8S2UJ
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVCQR7c284n
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAs7hqT10laR
It abandoned the dragon and went to delete the living weapon. But before it could, another welcomed surprise appeared. The final and winning variable.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA98nZz5ZICs
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAxQmN1uTyIl
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAeNaIPsl7C9
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAn3emi0w302
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAhG0NWwqgGl
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAqtWiuBqNAg
Louise 2: “I don’t know who you are but if you can understand me, keep it down while I end this.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQdfAAVBQ0Z
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA2GONcZQtgT
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAfrpda8TTI9
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.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnjmxoQMmLZ
The distance between them became smaller.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAKOY8pPpF61
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANApylwJEseNw
20 meters
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYWAqgItr9X
Arcs of pink electricity started to form around her.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZNL9Z4N44g
15 meters
294Please respect copyright.PENANAekuDa6wfQJ
She opened her eyes; her vision was surrounded by plenty of warnings but she dismissed them.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1iAUwPFh4G
10 meters
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWTgd5I7mp6
Louise 2: “Adapt to this!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAF4cf9ox711
5 meters
294Please respect copyright.PENANAxukXM6aB3B
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJiovnF89Dj
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZDIiRRdKc9
The sonic boom made it into everyone’s ears. Students screamed and even the fighters had to cover their ears as the ground quaked.
294Please respect copyright.PENANANz08SJ4xfj
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzkjX4OZuaB
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGbkZTKBwaz
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAdFBiwJmjF6
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkSg9Y5nvnx
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWlFt32QqSK
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAItOsPPQ8bY
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZtAL0Duefv
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA8R6A6XCWg0
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQcc3ckoVlK
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAM1M7cPXH79
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnlkh3rKfBA
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzGuGaJbJey
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA3uAMstG516
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANALggSPeSEl8
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAi6ePN1rZOj
Bench: “Listen to her, I know what to do. Trust me, she’s in good hands.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA5GbEyCtV1U
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANARVGr0xBu4s
Heeding his words, Raskeria and Colbert moved out of the way. Bench approached Louise 2 and a blue line scanned her entire being.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAM4f8HyQ2aH
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAPU7wHxtv29
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAFdxYmy2C1K
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZavc8PHIaz
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
294Please respect copyright.PENANA08eShdMhl1
Louise 2: “Then would…this help?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA4E6pSzCBzS
She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAOMjsXDHZ7F
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYKdYJSpGkH
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcjHT5ukBQ8
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGXI4th0dOo
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVZeuylkcMt
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANACeuRAGkxmo
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAASPrKHUxZl
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANATjCBdf98W4
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAv4pxHUxmnI
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?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0YtL2u5LXg
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAz1MsQmVkE9
Bench: “By all means.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA5YdxP8de3A
Louise 2: “So…can you…d-do it Bench?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANABNaZFnfdLS
Bench: “Do you know who you’re talking to?
294Please respect copyright.PENANAjtDaWNvUus
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1wfufONp8B
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA8Kfa1WcDkx
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIsMmLT8Fxj
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcBLC59YcCr
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANASdleOBIv9R
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYPU3PLSJUs
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAK3aQvlHFJb
Raskeria: “Calm down Jake, do you really want to fight everyone here?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAX6stImG30B
Jake: “…I’ll do what I have to.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWlRVJiPCf3
Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1YaFHqyBdR
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1PrqSj3Boa
Jake: “I don’t care.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAMbGgJQWWUb
Bench: “You-”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXfv1gzHZ1g
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAadYFUuhKUj
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA866hZhikEx
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnzoEBYCGNR
“Can you understand me?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAFp1Tp2pRJs
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZycqgB7hvl
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAt8quJsAalG
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA137nJSfXjq
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6oAyL7yFw
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAv9Brbungp6
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAvTnCSZDtjQ
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQganK3K2Vn
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANACqQ6OfkN3P
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
294Please respect copyright.PENANADOVnQ1bif4
Zander: “I hope I don’t have to come back here and deal with you Jake. I rather we be friends than enemies.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXiQaCecU2C
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA15REoZ65HI
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAmJ0pHCviQu
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA12T6hKwxbW
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…”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAfd6mQnUHok
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
294Please respect copyright.PENANACM4ND3Qfe6
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA305xe5Bdfj
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkOgT6EBv2g
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAyNTYML0b8w
No way to get back to New York meant Blackwatch ran free and the only family he has left was in danger.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA8qKPMR8Zep
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAR4LmXkLpTd
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYprw5GyfGm
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!”
294Please respect copyright.PENANANdTc5Ouyt5
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGs0u6y9jkc
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGGwkcReH7f
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAsEOlvNZVIo
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA44iO3wdxrF
Jake: “Tell me.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAaS9WfRL9vf
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAoGMnaq2LZQ
Jake: “Then-”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZUW8kK9V54
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…”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzF5ZHxnqhg
Jake: “Or?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAmpQf7lrhwU
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAO4SSlZ3EP9
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAW7cIoZgSYh
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAaBkQePaJiW
Jake: “…”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJUS9NJPDWq
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAntYzqK3CCT
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVWOTHa4aXE
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAMH8Rmr2KeF
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAF8A5Zn4qED
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANARZBBgbeSQp
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAMCC659Wi6g
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAuTTdD98EEH
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAD6QTzdlg0Y
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAvPqvf2lwIF
Jake: *Sigh*
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnVDKWmc1KC
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzppNYgHP1x
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAtDpkUpbkTa
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAlKt025darB
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
294Please respect copyright.PENANANvCYci3wBI
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANA79dmFrpIt3
Colbert: “Yes?”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA8raqAr3p9S
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANADstOGedO6D
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA4g0rziEAAw
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVJwTwX9A1u
[Louise’s Room]
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8USIUNmJ6
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAr0zfrJ2wQ2
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAwHedUNvtVD
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANA58sgeDRCft
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAgTjRWR8GAK
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANAwCUyS7eu5c
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
294Please respect copyright.PENANARXYmziVoDO
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.”
294Please respect copyright.PENANATwVWY4Rlsg
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA2QZuYP4yup
…
…
294Please respect copyright.PENANAvevgCRlhRi
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANA4pZ0xHlTDx
‘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.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXGUscZLPqC
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
294Please respect copyright.PENANAyYGrxkmLX5
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANALWOVpjqGU3
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIdUbbsFuYe
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAhjhH4brnan
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAse9nEylEvG

294Please respect copyright.PENANAGAnWjEYaDU
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAsNReXb9etH
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.
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVIjxijd7Mn
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.
