Everyone's Life Is Different

Chapter 1: Meetings
A/N: Hi all! I'm luckydragon7288, and this is my first fanfic ever! It's a PSO adventure 'fic, I'm planning on making it either a two-part series or a single really long story. It was inspired by X Launcher's PSO fanfic, "Image Of A Hero," also a very nice fanfic.
A few notes:
For those who don't know much about PSO, basically, the home planet Algo is in a state of disaster, and the Pioneer ships were sent to find another planet. Pioneer 1 made a discovery of Ragol, a planet almost alike to Algo. It landed on Ragol and established a colony.
7 years later, Pioneer 2 arrived at Ragol, carrying 300,000 citizens, most civilian. some military, and Hunters. Just as it was about to establish contact with Pioneer 1 on Ragol, there was a mysterious explosion, so large it was visible from space. All contact with Pioneer 1 and the colony on Ragol was cut off.
I just mentioned Hunters, but that's just a general term. There are three classes, Hunters, Rangers, and Forces. The Hunters are proficient in close combat, Rangers are proficient with guns, and Forces are proficient with magic.
Mags talk in this story, an idea used by other authors as well (To those of you who *do* have their Mags talk, I'm not trying to rip you off or anything.)
I don't own PSO or anything at all...*rage building*...
Alright, let's get to the story!
*************************
In an orbit around Ragol...On a large ship, called Pioneer 2...
Light filtered into the small room, revealing a sleeping figure lying in a bed. The sudden light woke it up, and it slowly sat up, revealing itself to be a thin 16 year old.
Anduril rubbed his eyes, and blinked before hearing a soft, metallic-sounding, but cheerful voice.
Varuna: Anduril, are you going to sit there all day? Hurry up!
The Mag floated into the room. Right now it looked like a floating metallic ball wthat stuck out at the front. Anduril handed it a
few Monomates and the Mag gulped them down. (A/N: ALthough I don't see how Mags can really "eat"...)
Anduril: Yeah, yeah...don't blow a circuit...
Anduril took a shower, and got his Hunter suit. It was like some kind of futuristic suit of armor, without any metal. It was predomnantly white, with blue on the legs and shoulders, and gold bands on the sides of the arms. The whole thing was made, on the outside, of some material that felt like plastic, but was lighter, tougher, and infinitely more durable. He put on the entire suit, still amazed at how light it was. It was no heavier than a T-shirt. There was no helmet, allowing freedom to Anduril's neck-length brown hair. (A/N: His hair looks like type #2 for HUmars...the short, yet long hair...)
Anduril: (thinking) I'm glad I'm not a RAmar...Those bulky Ranger suits must be so uncomfortable...
He attached his White Section ID clip, and picked up his saber from the counter of his dresser. He examined it for a moment, then hooked it to his belt, and walked out the door, followed by Varuna, heading into the bustling city atmosphere of Pioneer 2.
*******************
In another similar room to the first, another youth was waking up...
Elucidus: Ugh...what time is it?
Elucidus slowly got out of his bed, and straightened up to feed his Mag, Kalki.
Elucidus: I still wonder why you're not a Varuna Mag...Don't Kalki Mags only go to Rangers? I'm a Hunter...
Kalki: Maybe it's because you like guns so much.
Elucidus: Well, that could be it...
******************
Still another room, another person...
The girl stretched herself luxuriously, blinking in the light.
Ruby: Mmm...Rudra! There's a Star Atomizer on the dresser for you!
The dual Mag glided in at what seemed like the speed of light, wolfing down the Star Atomizer...
Ruby: You must really like those...I guess I'd better get going!
******************
A fourth, bland, similar room... (This must be getting really repetitive...but, it's the last waking up scene, I promise. For a while...hehehe...)
Vritra: Nell! Time to get up! You dont want to sleep too late on your first day as an official Force!
Nell: I'm up don't worry...You're right, I don't want to miss anything today! I just got my hnter's license yesterday and I can't wait to see Ragol on the surface!
******************
All over the massive spaceship, lights had turned on, creating the simulated dawn. All the lights were turned off at night, creating the simulated night, allowing for ease of sleeping. Right now, though, the whole ship was bright and bustling.
Nell walked quickly through the city, heading for the transporter, when she suddenly ran right into a young Hunter. She looked him over. He looked about 16, and his Hunter's suit was 100% white all over, with the exception of a few thin blue streaks down the sides of the legs. He had blond, spiky hair, and blue eyes.
Elucidus: Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going...
He looked the girl over. She was wearing a white dress, typical to a FOmarl, and her long blue hair was pulled back into a ponytail.
Nell: That's all right, neither was I. You're a Hunter, right?
Elucidus: Well, you wouldn't see many others wearing this kind of stuff, right?
Nell: Uh, well, no, um, hey, listen...(thinking) He's not that bad looking...and, I should get someone to take me with them to Ragol, because I heard it's dangerous for a rookie Force to go there alone for awhile...(aloud) Are you going to Ragol? Because, if you are, do you think...I could come with you? It's my first time, and I heard it's better if you go with someone...
Elucidus: I don't see why not.
Nell: Oh, thank you! I mean, um, well...my name's Nell.
Elucidus: Mine's Elucidus, but you can shorten it, usually people just say Elucid or Elu. Anyway, let's get going.
******************
On the orbited planet in question, in a vast, massive forested area, Anduril was standing in a small clearing, Varuna just behind him. He was standing just behind a tall, large, very solid gate (really more like a door, except it's outside)
Varuna: There's not many behind the gate right now, just 3 of those Savage Wolves, but I detect more coming soon.
Anduril: All right...hey, what's that? Strange noise from the other side of that gate. Let's go!
The young Hunter rushed through the gate, and came out in another clearing, where, a short distance ahead, 3 wolves were circling around some sort of bundle on the ground...
Anduril: (thinking) What's that? I guess I'll have to check later...
The wolves looked up, and advanced on Anduril. Dashing toward the monsters, he swung out with his saber, aiming specially at a point on the first wolf's body. The blow landed, and the wolf cried out in pain, falling over as one of its legs seemed to buckle. Anduril had cut the tendon muscle. He wsung the saber downward, ending the wolf's life. The other two wolved came closer, and a rustle in the underbrush was followed by another wolf-like monster, looking similar to the others, except it was bllue in color.
Varuna: Careful, Anduril, that one's a Barbarous Wolf!
Anduril: I know what I'm doing!
The lupine trio circled around Anduril, and closed in. The Barbarous Wolf suddenly dived at Anduril, and the hunter jumped aside and slashed at it as it passed by him. the other wolves jumped at him, too, and Anduril sidestepped the first one, only to be knocked down from a glancing blow by the other wolf. The Barbarous Wolf growled, and lunged at Anduril again, who had his back turned to it. A split second before the wolf's teeth found his neck,he thrust backward with his saber, taking the wolf by surprise. The saber took the wolf through the throat, killing it. (Well, duh...) The Savage Wolves howled, and ran away, jumping into the underbrush, a rustle and they were gone.
Anduril: I must be getting better. I've only been a Hunter for 2 weeks...
He deactivated his saber and walked over to the bundle that the wolves had been gathered around. Coming closer, he could see a dual Mag (that's what I call the Mags that have two parts...like Varaha, Rudra, Marutah, Kama, Kabanda...you get the idea.) floating aove the thing...
Anduril: (thinking) Oh god!
Anduril examined it, or, she...looked like a HUnewearl, judging by the powered-off saber that lay on the ground just next to her. She had longish blond hair, and, a less skimpy version of the standard HUnewearl outfit. He knelt down next to her, and took out a Moon Atomizer from his pocket. He examined the small capsule, before touching it to her forehead. The item glowed for a second, the the glow faded, and Anduril tossed away the spent Moon Atomizer. (This is how I think they use Moon Atomizers...) He waited for the item to take effect. A Moon Atomizer could revive someone from any state of unconsciousness, by accelerating the nervous system's healing procedure.
After a few seconds, the girl stirres slightly, and her eyes fluttered open.
Anduril: Are you okay? Here, take these...(he hands her 3 Monomates)
Girl: I'm fine...thanks.
The girl chewed the Monomate capsules one by one, cracking them so the fluid inside came out. One only had to bite down on it, to get the healing effects. (Sorry if this seems really similar to X Launcher's mate/fluid system, but I couldn't really think of any creative way to use the mates/fluids...I'm sure you don't mind, X?)
Girl: That's better...thanks. Did you help me?
Anduril: I-
Rudra: He did, I saw the whole thing!
Girl: Thanks a lot, I'd have been a goner if it wasn't for you, I guess...
Anduril: No problem.
The girl stood up, dusted herself off, and picked up her saber from where it lay. She looked over the guy who'd helped her. He looked to be about her age. He had a thin, yet strong build, and was wearing the thin, light suit that most Hunters used. The guy had dark brown hair that seemed short, yet long at the same time, because it was about level with the back of his neck, and nice eyes of the same hue.
Girl: Uh, anyway...I'm Ruby, this is my Mag, Rudra.
Rudra: Hello.
Anduril: I'm Anduril...this is Varuna.
Varuna: Hi.
Ruby: It's nice to meet you, Anduril! Say, uh...well, do you want to come with me? I'd feel bit safer, and there's sure to be lots more of those monsters...and, I don't know if I could handle them by myself.
Anduril: Uh...well, usually I go alone...but, I don't see why not...uh, well...sure, let's go.
Ruby: Thanks a lot!
****************
In a different part of the forest, not that far away...
Elucid: More monsters ahead...
As he spoke, several Boomas (humanoid creatures with ugly faces, large claws, and small brains...) unearthed themselves form the ground.
Nell: There's 4 of them.
Elucid: No problem!
Elucid drew his saber, and walked toward the Boomas, while Nell readied a technique. As the Boomas came forward, Elucid did an overhead slash on the first one, then coupled it into a stab, then he jumped back, clearing the way for Nell, who shot a Foie spell at the Booma, finishing it off. Nell cast a few mor Foie spells at the Booms, allowing Elucid to dash in and finish them off with his saber.
Nell took out a Monofluid and drank it. The two continued on, and Elucid spoted somehting.
Elucid: That looks like a teleporter.
Nell: I gues we should take it, this is a dead end.
They stepped into the teleporter, and reappeared into another section of the forest. Here, it was darker and cloudier
Elucid: The weather changed preety quickly...
Nell: Silly, it's because we're in another part of the forest...
Elucid: Yeah, I know...Let's go see what's here.
The pair continued through the forest.
