The rain poured down in the unknown forest. On a path of dirt that was now becoming mud a girl was laying down on the road. This little girl had a chunk of her head missing and part of her face with the right eye missing as well. Her left eye was carved out of its socket. Her hair a sopping mess of blood and purple. She wore a white dress shirt and a red dress over it. She however had no legs only thighs that were brutally cut up. Now most people would die with wounds like these. This little girl however was still alive if and only but barely. Her name was Ellen the name her parents gave her when she was born. However Her name is also Viola for her soul switched bodies with the original inhabitant of her body. Having barely survived a knife to her right side of where her eye would be, and then a shot from rifle that took out her right eye and apart of her face completely. She was wishing and hoping to anyone in the entire world, no the entire universe to save her from this fate.

Having only able to see darkness she could not see the black cat that walked by. It looked at the girl laying in the middle of the road with its yellow golden eye's. It grinned at what would be its next meal for this cat was a demon.

"Yo I see you are still alive." Viola tensed her body or what would be Ellen's body. "Well I can see you won't live very long and that girl who left you here said I can do what I want with you." Viola began to shudder and tried to get up and maybe defend herself. "Well I might as well just eat you and get it over."

The cat's body was now beginning to break apart. Viola could do nothing to stop it. All hope was beginning to fade fast, she was surely going to die. yet before she would be eaten she heard the voice of a girl.

'...Please, my servant that is somewhere in this world...'

She tensed again who could else be here beside herself and the demon who was still continuing to destroy its own host body.

'...The sacred, beautiful, and, above all-else, powerful familiar...'

The demon was almost out of its own mortal coil it would soon feast on the girl before him.

'...I ask of you: hear and answer my call!'

The demon was free of its mortal bonds however before it could feast a green circular orb appeared over the girl who was about to be its meal.

"NO YOU CAN NOT HAVE HER SHE IS MINE!" The demon roared, Viola was all but still but filled with hope. Someone else was here to save her. The green orb expanded and engulfed Viola and protected her from the demon that would surely eat her. The last thing she heard was the yell of the demon cursing whoever saved his meal.

In the world for away from our own on a continent named Halkeginia, in a country known to its inhabitants as Tristain. There was a special ritual in a school known as Tristain Academy Of Magic. This ritual was known as the Familiar summoning servant ritual. It was a ritual for all mages to summon a Familiar Servant that would serve them till death and would also decide their element.

In this field was a group of Noble students and all mages to boot. However one of these Nobles was a bit different then the rest. This Noble was Louise Francois De La Valliere a second year student who has Pink hair and an outfit that was very custom for all students to wear. And she was now in the middle of the group of students while everyone surrounded her staring. It was her turn to summon a Familiar and everyone else was waiting to see her fail.

Louise was not a very happy girl at school her peers tormented her by calling her names like Louise the Zero. And the teachers were no better because they allowed it to happen. She was prepared to say the magical words to summon her Familiar and hopefully prove to all of them that she was a mage. Gripping her wand and lifting it into the air she said the words to summon her Familiar.

"Please, my servant that is somewhere in this world... The sacred, beautiful, and, above all-else, powerful familiar... I ask of you: hear and answer my call!"

The air stilled for a moment.

Then - without warning - suddenly exploded in a loud roar twice and veiled the field in smoke and dust. Even the students who were standing far back were touched and buffeted by the furious winds and rumbling earth; Louise Francoise herself was covered in dust and soot from the blast.

Students coughed and swiped their hands at the dusty air, several of them sneered with annoyance, "That was by far the largest explosion yet, Zero."

"Hah! As expected of the Zero!" another added.

A red headed dark skinned student said her voice rang clearly over the crowd with her own quip, "That was quite the explosion, Louise! I hope you didn't blow up your poor familiar as well; it would be such a shame you know?"

The girl in question though screamed at what she saw.

It was one of the most horrible thing she could even see in her whole entire life. Other students began to look to where Louise's supposed Familiar was. Some gulped at what they saw. A girl that looked like the dead itself was laying down on the ground. Some students almost began to retch at the sight. One student a blonde male couldn't hold it down and puked out at the sight.

Louise was trembling for she has at this very moment killed someone and not summon a familiar. Unless this was her Familiar but that was very far away from her mind right now. She screamed again at the sight and began to run. She couldn't take the sight of it anymore, the teacher called out to her to stop but she didn't listen and just ran. Tears fell from her eyes but her hair successfully blocked them from being seen.

At the scene of the area the teacher told everyone to leave immediately most of the student's along with their Familiars did except for three. These three were Kirche the red headed dark skinned student that spoke earlier. Tabitha a blue headed girl with red glasses that held a staff. And Montmorency another blonde headed girl. Their Familiars were a Red Salamander with fire on its tail, a blue dragon, and a orange frog.

The Teacher slowly went to the corpse along with the students to get a closer view. His name was Professor Jean Colbert, and he was not expecting this at all to happen. When he was but a foot away from it the Corpse began to move. It tried to push it self up but collapsed. A collective gasp rung out through the students. How could she still be alive they all thought. Jean immediately asked one of the girls for their capes and Tabitha gave hers up. He put the cape over the girl laying on the ground and prepared to pick her up. It was then he noticed the damage at a closer angle.

'Brimir how could this girl still be alive... She should be dead.'

He thought, he proceeded to pick her up and asked the student to clear the path for him while she took the girl in her arms to the infirmary. They nodded and let him run past them. They all looked at each other stood there contemplating on what they all saw. For Viola she was barely lucid enough to know where she was or be able do anything she just breathed heavily as the person who carried her took her away.
