A Zero Hunter

Louise the "zero" was always a failure. The springtime familiar summing festival is coming up and she's grown even more desperate to summon a strong familiar, and prove she's not a failure. She fortunately gets her wish, but in the worst way possible.

Episode 1: A Surprise Guest


"Shit! Why won't you just die dammit!" He yelled hitting the creature once more, before jumping back to avoid a swipe from its claws. He took a quick stock of his predicament. 'I've got a damn Gruel in my house, the roof is gone, east wall is trashed, and the only way out is though the window over the god forsaken sea. Why do I always get the best luck?' A roar snapped him from his thoughts in time to sidestep another blow from the beast. His instincts screamed to run, and for once he fully agreed. Dodging a charge he quickly made for the window.

'Let's see how good my luck can get' He thought, giving a sadistic laugh as he crashed though the window, glass shards cutting into his unprotected forearm. Giving a turn in the air he looked back at what was considered his house, now a wreck from the Gruel's hunt to find its lost prey. A sudden thought crossed his mind causing him to slap a hand to his head; "I left the oven on, my pizza is going to burn!" In his worry of his breakfast he never noticed the green portal that opened underneath his fall.

In another time, in another place:

"My name is Louise Françoise le Blanc de la Vallière. Pentagon of the five elemental powers, Heed my Command..." A small pink haired girl chanted her tone of voice and body visibly nervous. "And bring forth…My Familiar!" She ended flicking her wand in front of her. Everyone in the courtyard flinched preparing for an explosion only to get…nothing. Not missing a beat a crowd of her peers began to jeer at her failure.

"Ha! Just like you Louise to fail at summoning a familiar! You are such a…" Someone quipped up just to be cut off by a sudden explosion casting Louise off her feet, to land harshly on her back.

"Was zur Hölle ist passiert?" An gruff voice came from the smoke. An unknown gust of wind reavealed a man lying on his back. A collective gasp came up from the crowd at the man as he raised his frame from the dirt. His extremly tall heighth gained a few looks but his appeareance was what truly gained him infamy.

His rough hewn pants and metal knee guards were tucked into boots with the same metal coverings. Upon his torso he wore what apeared to be a vest of blackened, hardened leather that only covered his right shoulder yet ran the full length of his left arm, tucked under black gloves with metal plates attached to the back and upon the fingers themselves. Across his chest a harness rested holstering a small knife on the right side of his chest, and two short yet wide swords crossed the back of his waist.

Yet through all this every eye was rested upon his face. A haunting mask of bone covered his face showing nothing underneath, a scowl of serrated teeth was carved as if to replecate a mouth, the angular edges of the mask granting it a gruesome scene, with almost decaying green hair meeting down with the edge of the mask, giving it an even more sickening appearence. The eyes of the mask were carved into what appeared to be a scene of anger gave the hazel eyes underneath an itimidating yet hipnotizing gaze.

Murmers and shivers could be seen and heard in the crowd as many took steps in retreat at his glare, that soon turned into full scale as he began to yell. " Verdammt es Magier!"

His head swiviling to take in his surroundings soon landing on a pink haired girl who had regained her footing yet flinched at his gaze. "Wo zur Hölle bin ich? Antworte mir jetzt!"
