Welcome, to my first fan fic. After years, I finally gave in and tried a few.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAz3B2M79uA9
Mostly crossovers.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA7ar14iq1WX
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAag8pI2mXR0
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAoEG1JPjrcF
They will be listed at the end of this one-shot.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAop7IaxwPu4
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvXEciWJom1
This is version 1 after all. If I can perfect the foundation and people like it, then I can continue.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxIcjnil5eH
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAasILTupPhH
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAC0p3abl7Mo
With that out of the way, let’s dive into this slice of eternity in a moment.
567Please respect copyright.PENANABYZmhfhF08
567Please respect copyright.PENANA5SvfFS9H3S
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVcoMjp4eEF
Aside from that though, they were also anxious. Anxious about what kind of familiar they would get.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAhsQettcZtB
A summoned familiar mirrors their master’s personality and elemental affinity. Who knows what hidden secrets their familiars may accidentally reveal to everyone?
567Please respect copyright.PENANAkYL1TZwdhN
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAds25Q6MwmA
Yes, all of them have tried and succeeded in summoning a familiar.
567Please respect copyright.PENANASFJphwECcA
Well, all but one.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAByXCWWJZSg
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxCTEzEhkpR
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAx9Y2FPfch1
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAmhvMZC8IDW
Colbert: “All right then, has everyone had their turn?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAY1Vv22eiHY
But the one to fully shatter her hopes was her bully and rival, Kirche von Zerbst. The busty chocolate beauty.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAq9JalgjbcR
Kirche: “No, not quite. Ms. Valliere hasn’t done it.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAjRfAeW8Emz
Louise: ‘Brimir, darn you Kirche.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAy3asTFLZ81
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANALAFixYyq8M
Maybe then, she’ll be respected and can finally deliver some good news to her family.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAmntA5s4lDV
She goes to the summoning area and prepares to-
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJnHZId025C
“Louise the zero.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAbEoXtF7PSe
“What do you suppose she’ll summon”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAZhqxmoIKVz
“There’s no way she can summon anything. We’ll just have another explosion and nothing else.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAz6aXzOu5Wz
Kirche: “With all your boasting, you should be able to summon up something more amazing than this. Right, Louise?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFaFf6LDaUh
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvhVKo7djFl
Louise: “Well of course!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAi2WLLfZ7BL
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAnF4Q8aStQS
She didn’t know it then but, someone was listening to her prayers.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvgJMilLX4f
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!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAtAJ0NDQEIu
“And so the die is cast.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAGwvasGFDby
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdq4gOpaPxr
…
…
567Please respect copyright.PENANAZjktCfu476
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAcGJpyv59WT
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAHyw0V3x8uh
The students quickly collected themselves and began their favorite pass time.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAs9TfCtctTS
“Hah, I knew it! Once a Zero always a Zero.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAqyZrN5VPhD
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAhT3Om8fYed
The one most scared was Slyphid, the medium-sized blue dragon summoned by the petite blue-haired Tabitha.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAG1FcdJOF7I
Tabitha: “What?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJcn0pI6pIX
Her question brought Slyphid’s head around to look her in the eyes. With their intimate bond, Slyphid was able to respond telepathically.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAauUIQZxgqE
Slyphid: ‘I smell her! I’m Frightened! But…there’s…more than just her…a…Predator.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdjwyYveRS8
The panicked voice in her head startled Tabitha. For a rhyme dragon of all things to be frightened…
567Please respect copyright.PENANA8Vz5MY2YhX
Tabitha: “What do you…mean?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAs1kj57cI0T
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAjrDLxhTQil
Louise: ‘Wait!? Shadows?’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMEa23U1arL
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdi4jzxJEAK
When the smoke cleared, something completely unexpected awaited everyone. Not only did Louise summon a human but she summoned multiple familiars.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAAWjGt3y5FP
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA5afBNt3jyJ
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAryadwPhh2n
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAk4nX3z3wh2
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyVM1w6M5tO
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANASBxqEtaoAS
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANARW90aBJuuI
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFktUMYpZvP
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAWhM73Cgt32
As for Louise, she just couldn’t look away. Especially after what happened next.
567Please respect copyright.PENANApFcZIIcy8r
“Kolo Zu’u, druv los tinvaak dovahzul?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyx825BXXiH
…
…567Please respect copyright.PENANAooOsX7vW5I
567Please respect copyright.PENANAlr4pz6R3Ty
Kirche: “Did that dragon just…speak?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvt4E6vpK01
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyeIBT4C7ZR
After a few moments of conversation and looking around, they stopped and looked at Louise.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAj3RWE1EUtR
“Okay, who summoned us?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdfKQw9QM5e
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMcrjyUOhCX
Louise: “I-I did. My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere.”567Please respect copyright.PENANA7KPAEBdvOY
567Please respect copyright.PENANADwpLnEI1he
“Well hi Louise, my name is Raskreia or Rask for short. This dragon is named Dovahkiin, strange name I know.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAih3wAS8mNZ
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAR38IDWh7CJ
567Please respect copyright.PENANA0hpY7nPGiZ
Raskreia: “Now, I have questions but first I think we should help the kid.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFyraMGTid0
567Please respect copyright.PENANASpTaX5DDi1
Colbert finally escaped his shock and agreed. He asks some students to carry the boy to the infirmary.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAskGyx17PJC
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAZIHtBzIRDD
Colbert: ‘Who knows what could’ve happened if we delayed any further.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdSJnxE7lil
“Ugh, what, is with the racket.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyKHscLh4vt
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA3N8qfAN6Dg
“I slept in an inn in my underwear, and I wake up in a summoning circle in them. Ugh, what even?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANApsLIgWERuV
Raskreia: “Well, looks who’s awake.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAcKSvY8Ta5s
She sighs.567Please respect copyright.PENANAZkfMtBTshJ
567Please respect copyright.PENANAsQx6rjM0wi
“And I am surrounded by children and a strange dragon.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAmRuKy7yaN0
Colbert: “Since everyone is awake, not including the injured, we should proceed with the bonding ritual.”567Please respect copyright.PENANA8MmYlcpJMG
567Please respect copyright.PENANA4e0PZoNZGu
Raskreia: “Sure, if you’re going to explain to us what in the nine hells is going on here exactly and where we are?”567Please respect copyright.PENANAy6jkgZ3jTv
567Please respect copyright.PENANAhuzuHQ3wpD
At this, Louise answers before the man could.567Please respect copyright.PENANA5fR7eVK3x7
567Please respect copyright.PENANA9HUlM3hJoE
Louise: “You’re here because I summoned you all to be my familiar with the summon servant spell, and I am your master now.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANARof5QCaf8x
Rask rolls her eyes while the other 2 had more animated responses.567Please respect copyright.PENANAzr9ejUO5iE
567Please respect copyright.PENANAegmgOW2s84
“Whoa, back the fuck up. Why should I be your familiar?”567Please respect copyright.PENANAeVugt6Th0W
567Please respect copyright.PENANAWfMtlod1wC
Dovahkiin: “What do you mean by bonding?”567Please respect copyright.PENANADaJUi267Zr
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJWJYs13rBP
Everyone except Rask blinked. That was in Tristainian.567Please respect copyright.PENANAkeDj2RzF5D
567Please respect copyright.PENANAcg2HPWqGnH
Dovahkiin: “Oh, so now my voice returns.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANALtXIiC07z0
Colbert: “You can speak our language?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAj2jN4bWhmF
Dovahkiin: “I can speak this language, but before I was…confused and spoke in native Dovahzul.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdxmRa5xumA
Raskreia: “Really? I guess I don’t need this anymore then.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAY4Dn8G0B1j
Rask puts the ring back in her bag.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAgBhCxqnvVJ
Colbert: “Dovahzul, I haven’t heard of that language.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANALyor3rAW6m
“Neither have I, strange.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAwhthcPlu1X
Dovahkiin: “Enough of this, what do you mean by bonding?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAXA0DtuJrkI
Despite the group before her, Louise bravely stepped forward again.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAnlN6WvT2dS
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2VX9yC8ruu
The reactions from all summoned present varied but none good.567Please respect copyright.PENANACt490edu1n
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFOjDz8CnfC
Raskreia: “I’m fine with getting summoned but getting branded like some animal, no thanks.”567Please respect copyright.PENANA9kRQq1ZJRE
567Please respect copyright.PENANAynmm0Gm7kC
Louise’s mood quickly deteriorates but there’s still hope she thought. She summoned more than one, surely one would agree.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA6NwdyLlK32
But that thought quickly faded away when the dragon growled. It drew itself up by stretching its wings down and glared at Louise.
567Please respect copyright.PENANArVAjOtgKSx
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?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAUEPiuiurBY
Raskreia: ‘Oh no, they made the dragon mad. That’s never a good idea. No matter the plane.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAkaZYmFLQ3v
Colbert stepped in as Louise faltered and took several steps back.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAlitloOT5DP
Colbert: “It’s how the holy ritual has been performed for hundreds of years.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVBUoV98llq
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAc9P5EqQU4f
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA3MjOctm44E
Dovahkiin: “I for one refuse to become anyone’s slave. I simply want to return to the life I lived before this all occurred.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA70uQkVVqH4
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAuv10CXlD7a
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.’567Please respect copyright.PENANAYy73vrtFIh
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyo3J2CUd80
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvbEFGldlsT
She grips her wand tightly, wishing this was all a dream. Unbeknownst to her, there was one that considered her offer.
567Please respect copyright.PENANACTfD3XXd37
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAv56zak62YW
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAe5RYiLXKDM
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.567Please respect copyright.PENANApd8yJoyl6f
567Please respect copyright.PENANAN01SnWaUoU
She knew intimately what happens in situations like that. Despite her previous obligations, the redhead made her choice.567Please respect copyright.PENANAzUzuvkfD1G
567Please respect copyright.PENANAK7mat975iX
“If a familiar is what you seek, then you shall have one. I agree to be yours.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA31DxtrkCYn
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAGvjDHpYO2o
Dovahkiin: “You!? You would subject yourself as a slave to a child? Where is your pride as a Dovah?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAoovmEjlce3
“Dovah? I see, that's your word for it. So you can tell?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVqlhXMfEsL
Dovahkiin: *Nod*
567Please respect copyright.PENANAG61e6oBDg2
“I have my own reasons.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKY7OVA77eF
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFaJ5vpW4a3
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?
567Please respect copyright.PENANA4CQozx8gY8
Raskreia: “Well I won’t judge you. It’s your choice.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAgE3O8HOoRt
Louise reapplies her rule of steel mask and starts towards the redhead. She let out an indignant, resigned huff as she raised her wand.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAW96Q3tNj5L
Louise: “Consider yourself fortunate, commoner. Normally, you’d never in your life have a noble do this to you.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANABnW9OJszQi
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Oh, pentagon that rules the five elements, bless this individual and-”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAfOWf30zvn1
567Please respect copyright.PENANA1iOiwG7IKr
‘Did you think this was it?’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAE2KSd3BgvI
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAwneXGkeRHI
“Louise!?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA0Q7U3AGJbj
Everyone, including the dragon, looks at Louise with concern. Before anyone could go to her and see what’s wrong, something else extraordinary happens.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAEmobb6lEec
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAaR4Gb8Mn9n
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdmY2E4RPFa
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAcXRVKWTYnH
Raskeria: “The hell was that?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAs2IlPf0eo5
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKgEM8Z6u9T
Colbert: “A golem?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJ73wL8y3mD
Dovahkiin: “No, something more.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAUYTjs1MoIZ
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAl8JmEpGA9W
Guiche: “Unhand me this instant!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdAAICNcgHJ
It didn’t respond instead it brought its other arm up and balled it into a fist.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAfhsyamjagH
Guiche: “You would dare hit a noble!? I tell you, my father is a gener-”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKdVIdj9BlK
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAtcfvY5OEaB
Colbert: “Mister Grammont!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAoSLTd2EMrb
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA6v9ToZURqH
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAHCJmWpNTRr
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxPiTiKm6EF
Guiche: “L-Louise?”567Please respect copyright.PENANAApb2VEfaaI
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMbJ8EhsOkS
Colbert: “But how?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAb2K6gUNa1B
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAhTmWSrjX9R
Raskeria: “Can this day get any crazier?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAfJVZf6hANx
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAuN5EedWvq1
Guiche: “How dare-”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA0hnKl0ORM9
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAS1WORB2cuS
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAUplgH0w3lJ
Regardless, Dova took the golem and threw it across the field away from the students.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAC5mFH5ssCw
While this was happening, the redhead took Louise to a safe distance. She could help but she wanted to keep Louise safe for now.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVqyn0B6onq
Raskeria: “That has to be among the strongest golems I’ve ever seen.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANABJwf8IzW5O
Dovahkiin: “It’s like a Dwemer automation but more…advanced somehow.”

Louise?: “I don’t remember you two when I left. Who are you two?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA3mlgQRFTwC
Raskeria: “Talk later, fight now!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAURCAv0YDFo
Dovahkiin: “YOL TOOR SHUL!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2NiBM82VvA
The dragon breathes intense heat at the golem while Raskeria casts a strange spell that also shoots bolts of fire.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAb2QoKmBxYv
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2NJPJBMx3Q
Raskeria: “Okay, that thing is too dangerous. Disintegrate.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA7T9AgLYUso
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAhxE8p2GsNA
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJS9yIZSCxP
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANArpyq1TBz0T
This proved to be the right choice when the sound of lightning cracked from the cloud of dust.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVEiVR0CyTj
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2JLYLQC1lp
Raskeria: “Another one!? To think, I was just hanging out with friends and now I have to fight for my life.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAX9hdeh58HS
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2iE2w9cqLO
Eventually, the sound of clicking reached her ears. She disassembled her shield and placed her hands behind her with her palms open.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA5fEPkTkWQh
Louise 2: ‘Here’s my chanc-”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAb5JOr6LloK
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAjikaj6Jlsb
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAf5JdNVN4uw
Raskeria: “Did Louise summon another one? I can’t deny it, that’s impressive.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAIbItpsnffQ
Louise 2: “Friend or foe?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAG1TPt5G6Vn
Jake: “Depends on what happens next. The name’s Jake Logan Anderson, Jake will do.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2yh961ZTLt
Dovahkiin: “FUS RO DAH”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA6eqIoZsi0A
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAUwgdDktDVa
Dovahkiin: ‘I need to get used to this body and fast. I hope that was the last of them.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2gF0xNS9tt
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAaTs6LEeqLD
Louise 2: “Mr. Colbert!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA1LJUI6Rysf
This seemed to jog the man from his shock.
567Please respect copyright.PENANApCkJQZ69Dr
Colbert: “Um yes, what do you need Ms….you are Valliere right?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAU9OIRht5l2
Louise 2: “Yes. Evacuate everyone from this place right now.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAC6tqt1W0pi
Raskeria: “Why? Isn’t it over?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANABVLJM6wq9n
Jake: “No, it’s never that easy.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMewWIjr4N3
Louise 2: “He’s right, this courtyard isn’t safe anymore.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJLcmDtveLr
The doppelganger looked at the strangers she fought with.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxR9jKr4iOM
Louise 2: “Can trust one of you to help Colbert protect everyone.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA8YUAOWsD9T
Before any of them could answer, the red-head answered.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAEKgJDIVG3H
“I’ll protect him along with…you I guess.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAGF52iMqnTf
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAXtrSH89M2f
Louise 2: “And who are you?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAsJDccPRKdA
“My name is Aeterna Flamma, your familiar.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANASGq8K3XOPS
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAb7YYKzRM4I
Dovahkiin: “Trust her, she is stronger than she looks.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANANblIvjHyim
Louise: 2: “…Fine. I won’t argue with a dragon. Especially not now.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANASsnP7ajuzN
Aeterna: “Good, come on everyone.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9EZdGOJFH
Colbert: “Y-You heard them, we can’t stay here any-”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAZTfDyKzVwo
Suddenly, the sound of something rattling made itself known throughout the courtyard. Louise 2 clicked her tongue.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6vxeZkZLP
Louise 2: “Go, NOW!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFiLUKCPYD0
They followed her order, many out of fear of the sight before them. The 3 golems slowly but surely collapsed into strange black sand.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAy2SzzNI0sC
Jake: “What the fuck?! Are these truly machines?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAf8vuMQaSz9
Raskeria: “I’m starting to question that too.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJwAYs0FQRV
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA7e8YsOOS4N
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAXMOmALnvm6
The arms were next. The left was a massive blade and the right was a massive claw hand.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAao1C8jbobO
Finally, the head was bulky enough to discourage any beheading. But the most important part was the lines connecting to the chest area.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKHkYKvWyLt
Louise 2: ‘That’s its weak point.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAT9Bzvbj7ah
Its eyes finally light up and lock onto the fighters.
567Please respect copyright.PENANApnHd9C7Tqf
Louise 2: “Just my luck, a Ravager.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAwBflkyO2bh
Raskeria: “A what?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2zYQjhdu3m
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANARKk2aOZbXZ
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAZfuPChOYLk
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAZcG58GVCBY
Louise 2: “Go!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAHdUsppTs8Z
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAtznzkPnovU
Raskeria aided the group with various spells, mostly fire and stuff like ‘Create Pit’.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAtUg0tLs8re
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAz9duFTWyDj
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA8aDbDIganK
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAs49Aonh5pX
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAT1q4viUnuA
Raskeria: “Yeah, stay right there. Disintegrate.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAu8LQANivKb
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAlFYkOhBznQ
Louise 2: “That won’t be enough! We need to destroy its core.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA3blcc7Hdcz
Jake: “Where is it then!?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAjsjxnoSHil
Louise 2: “It was in its chest but who knows where it will be when it reforms.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQLFgk9VShd
They look back at Rask and she couldn’t help but rub the back of her head.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAjHyRu26aTk
Raskeria: “My bad.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxbMrhvp0Pa
Jake: “Tch, it’s like fighting a machine version of me.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAv8JP22j9QU
Dovahkiin: “FO KRAH DIIN”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA3pAwixJrF2
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKlNjALweiG
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAudsbHVLT8x
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAohClc5V8nh
Raskeria: “What do you mean?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAsCbwtW6Z8I
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKCwEspWVZi
Jake: “…Fine.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAfQhqwkWyxC
The other 2 nodded and got into position.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdtkS4jiSoS
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAcJLlpZ20Ak
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANASjyqs8ZnsT
Louise 2: “You got to be kidding me.”567Please respect copyright.PENANAxzDRUPnOHA
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyMuVy6zQ4t
The Ravager started firing at everything below. Raskeria created another shield around everyone to block the heavy bullet fire.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAYuzwYNuJL3
Raskeria: “Dovahkiin, this is all you. I’ll focus on protecting everyone while you distract it enough to prevent it from firing.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAYrYdmeYQDT
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA781P3MIQnc
Despite Dovah’s best efforts though, Ravager wasn’t that bothered by it’s attacks. That was until Dovah started using more unique shouts.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKddBMu6VNh
Dovahkiin: “VEN GAAR NOS!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAlvKu0QBgf2
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANArB3gLgYPAW
Louise 2: “Great, bring it down quick! I can see where the core is! Focus your attacks on its head!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAnMcvdFp9Op
Raskeria: “I still need to keep the shield on Dovahkiin so I can’t attack.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAIQQESXb6ev
Louise 2: “That’s a good thing, just focus on support.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQvifhJv4Pp
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVVu61W985O
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxS2hawKUTt
Raskeria: “Was that…magic?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvaWoF4TKq3
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAWUepcWHuMQ
Dova shrugged it off but still lost some ground. Jake on the other hand was on fire and falling.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA7MmSyGKzRd
Jake: ‘Of course, it had to use fire and lightning of all things.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAU7GrwAY7h4
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAENH5c23aay
It abandoned the dragon and went to delete the living weapon. But before it could, another welcomed surprise appeared. The final and winning variable.
567Please respect copyright.PENANALI0nqlQjnB
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA9IjG95Yvjf
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAljZ7FshDb2
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA6r1nnleHUw
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAx8PJJRrqWC
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAopnwqfNssO
Louise 2: “I don’t know who you are but if you can understand me, keep it down while I end this.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAXQ8XdK8CJE
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAbDt5f1R9cC
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAHS6fexpFDK
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.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANA1w1flR01yy
The distance between them became smaller.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAAuo5puFNyj
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA49kvBMw09K
20 meters
567Please respect copyright.PENANApfjpjHPmFg
Arcs of pink electricity started to form around her.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAPJM4JQmmkI
15 meters
567Please respect copyright.PENANAt8JTd9pnce
She opened her eyes; her vision was surrounded by plenty of warnings but she dismissed them.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAwsOLEIb7Rx
10 meters
567Please respect copyright.PENANAi5sYgYrw6L
Louise 2: “Adapt to this!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANADcme7ixzyF
5 meters
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJc3xYEDx0T
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQwVpF0rjQL
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA1aX0xhtQ53
The sonic boom made it into everyone’s ears. Students screamed and even the fighters had to cover their ears as the ground quaked.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAHHIAdH5GQS
The fighters aside from Jake ran up to the aftermath of the attack. Colbert also came running despite Aeterna’s warning.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAbJa5ItzqHW
Good news, the Ravager now sported a missing head. Bad news, behind the Ravager was a badly damaged Louise 2.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAiH41dxajr4
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAq7Yh74Wd3Q
Raskeria: “Okay, that looks terrible. But I can fix this.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANARyrtC7ymvt
She started to create ice to cool her down before applying healing magic. But before she could a voice stopped her.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAn2PbuYrprb
“STOP, YOU’RE GOING TO KILL HER!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAsASCiwo7BT
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAqWdTlCEWqb
Colbert: “Stop, any closer and we’ll consider you an enemy!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAy4BMRrR2Us
Raskeria: “I vote enemy, where was he when everything was going wrong?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA61qQBYKpRP
Louise 2: “B-Bench? I-Is that…y-you?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAPaXdoBD2Qi
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA2Shuiqn7mi
Colbert: “Miss Valliere!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA9pKgwp3HhY
Louise 2: “Please…let Bench…come to me…professor.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANADcS9lwlsYm
Raskeria: “But what about my magic? I can heal you good as new.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANABW8C1RXChA
Louise 2: “Don’t…I…d-don’t know…what effect it…will h-have.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANACqJjA0oO0J
Bench: “Listen to her, I know what to do. Trust me, she’s in good hands.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvh6O25Eih2
Raskeria: “…Fine. This whole thing is beyond me anyway.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0krPwBooG
Heeding his words, Raskeria and Colbert moved out of the way. Bench approached Louise 2 and a blue line scanned her entire being.
567Please respect copyright.PENANArniSlbSfaX
Bench: “You’ve really done it this time Louise.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAaVWc9L5DpC
Louise 2: “Why does…it…matter…I destroyed…the Ravager.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA54tgx2HL3U
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA4Vp4jrqccc
Raskeria: ‘You mean what I was going to do?’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAgaJDwC2anQ
Louise 2: “Then would…this help?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAI9WiAUYSKl
She asks while letting go of a red orb that was giving a low hum.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMO7YKKAaEn
Bench: “Is that what I think it is?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFjg0RloANO
Louise 2: “Y-You bet…it is.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyMSohsybhG
A blue line passed over the orb from Bench.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAXI51evTmFF
Bench: “I can’t believe it, a Ravager core.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA86ROMNvhUV
Raskeria: “You mean that’s what we were fighting to destroy? Why is it intact?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA0lJGatzXDp
Bench: “Because this might be the only sure way to save Louise.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAH8DT508MVu
Raskeria: “Magic is out but the core of that monster is okay?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA5FB22djUWr
Dovahkiin: “I agree, destroy it.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMK8v83Wbwb
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?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAepJ2hM8BaG
Raskeria: “No but I’m keeping my eye on you…and that.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAEjzt4NzYNd
Bench: “By all means.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMJ9mLqghry
Louise 2: “So…can you…d-do it Bench?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA1H8Oa4NjhC
Bench: “Do you know who you’re talking to?
567Please respect copyright.PENANA6wiezlShG1
Louise 2: “That’s…good.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAyvWRrEhrLl
Louise 2 finally succumbs to her wounds and passes out. Bench looks to Colbert and gives a stern order.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA916HyxTeD6
Bench: “Take me to where your clinic is, I have a Hunter to repair!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKg8mqk4a0B
Jake: “Wait a minute!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAXRKW1NN8H7
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANASGisE8pUZg
Bench: “What are you doing?!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAiHMqCxXgpH
Jake: “Just because I helped defeat that thing doesn’t mean we’re allies. I need answers!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQf42VwHnRQ
Raskeria: “Calm down Jake, do you really want to fight everyone here?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJ10fb7clxd
Jake: “…I’ll do what I have to.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAn3liWqWFKY
Colbert: “W-What do you want to know?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxG9TO3DXoN
Bench: “We don’t have time for this! Louise will die if Colbert doesn’t show me to the clinic.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAssCPlKqJQ7
Jake: “I don’t care.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAt3O9p8EMoe
Bench: “You-”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAbK8UuV5swK
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAARxKwlmyI5
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAY7daGniR1Z
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANACrmC2ETcEP
“Can you understand me?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAWlsh64hAgO
Raskeria: ‘A translation spell? Oh, he’s good.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAC5xeMMK91s
Colbert: “Y-Yes.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAYdeuQKI1QC
“Wonderful, my name is Zander and I’ll take them to the clinic.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAOMPAPrP3iQ
Colbert: “But how? You don’t know the way.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAWi309E8k85
Zander: “I’ll ask one of the students or the staff. I’m sure they’ll help.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAPz1W8eTAEL
With a slight twist of his wrist, Louise begins to float off the ground.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAy8LTxExYft
Zander: “Shall we go Bench?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQVFU2r8xlG
Bench: “Yes, quickly now.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANATuL142jjRm
They begin to leave but before that Zander gives a sharp glare to Jake.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAy4HyOhZzWv
Zander: “I hope I don’t have to come back here and deal with you Jake. I rather we be friends than enemies.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVolj5oCmQ0
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANALHamD4xNJY
No one said a word until Zander was gone.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA6GXqD17IQq
Colbert: “Okay, so what do you want to know Jake.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAy4iogomtk9
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…”
567Please respect copyright.PENANALv7gBENarL
Jake brings his blade a bit closer to Colbert which makes everyone tense up, ready for another fight.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAtJfIvrbOC6
Jake: “You will take me back to New York.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKVI1h1LiKB
Colbert: “I’m sorry but…there’s no way back. None that we know of.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAECQdPZWrvr
The moment those words left his mouth, he felt the urge to slice off his head.
567Please respect copyright.PENANARY0OrgYpom
No way to get back to New York meant Blackwatch ran free and the only family he has left was in danger.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAKFXDhKLxa4
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA4t8aAljrZG
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAnL8jRXpT2l
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!”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAwIA5XB6LKH
Colbert: “Sir, I’m truly sorry but there is no way to reverse this.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA512r7OuJjo
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA9dd06E23AC
Raskeria: “There might be a way.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANACqtmhxBaoT
Everyone turned toward the girl. Jake’s eyes widened with relief but also slow-cooking anger.
567Please respect copyright.PENANARkqkgMteoS
Jake: “Tell me.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA3SaaKhdzad
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAOruKfn7ngb
Jake: “Then-”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA5LQPV5s8PG
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…”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAUDsVDQLxbI
Jake: “Or?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANACKbVDRqIl1
Raskeria: “Learn magic and go yourself.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANASqBHHDCUSe
Colbert: “Learn magic?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAw7BwsW0asb
Raskeria: “Yeah, it will be hard but it can be done.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAgSixiB3qOU
Jake: “…”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAMAdIkUrlaz
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAbM0iup3UPl
But still, time is of the essence. He can’t be gone for long.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAosCoowfqK8
Jake: “How long would it take for me to learn.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAFOZ84mZ5tn
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANASbkw25614R
Jake: ‘Years!? No, I don’t have that kind of time. I’ll leave that as a backup.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANATKpyqiub3O
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAHFSk55I8ta
Raskeria: “Sure, sure. Right now though, I’m tired. I’m going home and telling everyone what happened. See you. ‘gate’.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAguxqhMB2Br
A rip in reality appears behind Raskeria. She yawns and goes through which causes it to close.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAqqwcfP9GfQ
Jake: ‘Tch, she better make good on our deal. Or I have another person on my list to kill here.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANASQmzP175jk
Jake: *Sigh*
567Please respect copyright.PENANAruYwE0jsgv
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAtXQiW4ZEp2
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAh0svQ19MIj
Colbert: “Well, you’re the last one. What will you do?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANA0a73n8NKVl
Dovahkiin: “Stay for now. Jake’s situation seemed more serious than mine so he can get the gate treatment first. Besides…”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAGawriKHs5I
Dovahkiin: ‘It’s not all Louise’s fault that I ended up here. Damn that dedric prince.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAVHim1cYyHF
Colbert: “Yes?”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAM3CZXDlwEX
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAmT9C6dKeqG
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAdlCJDoo2G2
Colbert: “Brimir save us, what has Louise unleashed…”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAaSvPlxatcn
[Louise’s Room]
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvIO6ngUo46
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAmKqvEhWSZj
She gently takes her to the bed and lies her down.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAw5zcRNIxXI
Aeterna: “Already, that power is drawing dangerous things to you.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAabbGoUxkhB
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAo6HJijJZkn
Aeterna: “Did she really expect me to sleep on that? I guess she was expecting an animal though.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANApBXKfHEzpJ
She looks down at her body and remembers that she’s still wearing lingerie.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAhfeJUtTwem
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.”
567Please respect copyright.PENANAxxLjgqc8u4
With that thought, Aeterna leaves the room.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAgjQPnIDwyW
…
…
567Please respect copyright.PENANAQbnBJYWYVj
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANASZZmBdfboh
‘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.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAk6p04lCHWI
‘Hehe, I’m getting excited. Sweet dreams Louise.’
567Please respect copyright.PENANAWYGczMHtJc
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANALLC26ZjJ5e
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAJalHS87SdI
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANACiYgE5n0T8
Among the clouds and across the forest, more rips threaten to form.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAvAhb5cjU5m
‘Let the games begin.’

567Please respect copyright.PENANAXyrbeSHMAk
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANA4VAKDeVAIy
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.
567Please respect copyright.PENANAag1BBbjBa7
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.
