Hello everyone Blackhawk571X here, and here is chapter 1 of this story.

The Academy of Magic of Tristan

The Springtime Summoning Ritual is one of the most sacred and almost holy occurrence that will define the status of a noble, one given by Brimir. All students from first to second years are required to summon their familiars by the second year, to further their studies as mages and nobles, and to acquire a lifetime servant to aid them in their daily lives. Everyone there was able to summon such familiar, except for one. Her name is Louise de la Vallière, and she is the last to summon a familiar, or at least hope she summons one. Louise is no ordinary student at this academy, despite her high grades and her knowledge of the arts, she had no magic potential. All the spells she would conjure up end up the same, blowing up in her face. Now she has one last chance to prove her place as a mage and noble, but if not she could spend the rest of her life as a laughing stock to the entire noble community and be a strain in her family's history.

"Now then, has everyone here had their turn?" Said a bald topped man with blue robes, presumingly a teacher of this academy.

"No, no quite Mr. Colbert, Miss Vallière hasn't done it yet." Said a tan girl with...impressive assists, red hair and with a modified version of the school uniform with a black cape, looking around for the girl in question.

Everyone look around to see Louise standing there, just in time to break out of her thoughts to realize everyone is staring at her.

"Ah yes, Miss Louise, come and summon your familiar." The teacher identified as Mr. Colbert said. To which Louise had a look of surprise before coming to the circle to summon her familiar.

"Good luck Louise, you're gonna need it for all that boasting last night." The girl said, hoping to hit a nerve on the one person she usually teases.

"Just shut it Kirche" Louise said, towards the girl identified as Kirche.

After she said her piece, she starts her spell to summon what she hopes to be divine, beautiful, wise, but most of all...powerful familiar.

As is the cliche that is the universe's' game, karma, and along with it the old saying goes.

Be careful what you wish for

You. might. just. Get it.

June 6, 2023.

Kansas City Missouri.

In the Union Hill area of Kansas City, a lone soldier heads for the National World War I Museum and Memorial to revelous with his corps to march and take the city hall. He runs for a few moments before stumbling at the front of the museum, taking the view in. He always want to see this place, but now it's nothing but run downed and some parts of it show signs of battle occurred here. He tracked on to the inside the museum, to wait for the corps he commanded to meet him here, but just before he got to the entrance, sniper fire broke the silence.

Faint crack

The soldier quickly got down before the bullet would connect to his head. The sniper had a good shot lined up, but what the sniper don't count for is the soldier's hyperactive 6th sense. Ever since his incident in Utah, his battlefield scenes had turn up to 20, leaving him almost like a super soldier. But his past is not something to remember at the moment, cause right now he need to dispose of that sniper, fast. Decided to use his helmet as decoy to spot few feet from him with one hand, he readies his FN Scar-H sniper rifle in his shooting hand at the edge of the stairs. And he waits as he slowly move his helmet out into the open and sees his target, on top of the buildings of the museum. As his helmet is surely out in the open, he looks through his scope and wait. Fortunately, he didn't have to wait long enough.

Faint crack

Ding!

Crack!

In the soldier's scopes, the moment he pulled the trigger, a red mist appeared on the roof on the right side building.

"Sleep tight, buddy" the soldier said, knowing he had claimed the sniper's life and continue into the museum. With his sniper away and pulling out his An 94 with a hybrid optic and shotgun underbarrel, he does a sweep through the entrance. No signs of enemies or evidence of enemy operations, he begins to feel his sixth sense kicking into overdrive as he moves through the museum, hoping to not find anyone here and wait for his men. After a few minutes, he stumbles into what may be the main room of the museum with some low lighting. Along some walls were lined with weapons, others pictures of the men and women of the war and even a tank in the room. He got caught up by the history of it that we hasn't aware that he was watched, a fact that escaped him until a noise was emitted, that made the soldier aware. But he wasn't gonna get the jump on them yet, he need a place for cover first before making any moves, and sure enough he found it in the form of an old tank.

'Perfect' He thought. 'There are about 7 men in here, my first shot should go to the man on the right, nearby the entrance' the soldier gets close to the tank, waiting for his opportunity to strike his adversary's, because if they were his allies, they would've let their presence be known.

As he waits, he manage to catch a glimpse of one of the enemies, and he saw that they are Spec Ops. But his thought is interrupted as his sixth sense tells him to take cover, the enemy had started their attack. Gunfire sounded as soon as the soldier hide behind the tank, he starts to fire back without exposing his head. He may be almost superhuman, but he is not immortal. He was about to throw a grenade when a sudden explosion happen in the room. . He looks on and sees 3 men with their weapons trained on him, the others are still on the ground not moving or groaning in pain. He then grabs his rifle and get ready to shoot, but he get distracted by a green glow and some voice in his head, which lead him to get shot in the shoulder. The soldier groans as he felt the shot went straight through, deciding that it was time to use his grenade. After he threw the grenade, he heard yells followed by an explosion which threw debris everywhere, including a piece of shrapnel in his back that was exposed. He groaned in pain and fell, expecting to fall on the ground but somehow feels like he failing from like an aircraft. Unknowingly he fell into a green oval shaped portal that appeared during the firefight and begins to take him to his next home. The museum is quiet again with 7 men is either dead or wounded and the soldier disappears, the room is silent, until footsteps were heard.

"Zircon Royal, this is Risen Hawk, commander Erik Roland is to be reported dead and I shall assume command of the Hessian Milta Corps until such later time, over." A man said, urging the survivors to look at the new comer, only to look on with absolute shock and horror on their faces.

"Roger that, Risen Hawk, command of the Hessian Milta Corps is now yours. What are their orders, sir?" the voice from his radio input on his right handed mounted weapon said. Some of the survivors look like they were about to pass out while one of them was trying to get away from this man, if not for his leg been shattered and bloody from an early grenade.

"Zircon Royal, order the Hessian Corps to continue their march towards the city hall as planned. I'll join up with them as soon as I finish up Erik's work here." The man said, with a grin as the one man try to exit the room, only he didn't know that this 'Risen Hawk' had lock the doors earlier...except the one behind him. The others however struggle to reach for their weapons.

"Roger that, Risen Hawk, have fun" the voice said, cutting transmission to carry out orders. The front man had his weapon ready to fire at the man, only to look on with horror at his weapon did nothing but sounded an audible click, a sign for no ammo.

"Oh believe me, I will." The man said with malice in his voice as he points his arm weapon at the enemy soldiers, which looked like a military version of the wrist gun, and both barrels extended.

The last thing heard from outside the room are the screams of the spec op soldiers and gunfire, as the point of view looks onto the outside of the museum to the sight of an army marching towards north with jets and helicopters flying overhead. The only thing though, they aren't the US military. They're rebels.

Scene Change

At the academy, Louise finishes her spell only to explode as expected by everyone else. A boy with blond hair kneel downs to check the girl beside him.

"Hey Montmorency are you alright?" The boy said, who then had a comical question mark beside his head when the girl don't acknowledge him.

"Huh? Is something the matter?" The boy asked again, only for the girl to point at whatever had her attention. And the boy look and had a looked shock at the scene in front of him. In front of Louise was a boy with a blue sweat jacket, black pants, and blue and white shoes. Louise looks at this boy as one of her eyes twitches in anger.

The boy woke up wondering where he is, he then sees a pink haired girl with a long-sleeved blouse underneath a long indigo coat reaching to her feet, a black skirt, and a pair of long black stocking-like socks and a pair of black shoes. She speaks to him, but is confused by the language she's speaking. The boy then looked around, speaking a language everyone doesn't understand either.

"Exactly as I would've expect from someone who boasted as you did, to think you would summon a commoner" Kirche said, as everyone laughed at Louise.

"Mr Colbert, can i redo that summoning spell again?" Louise said, obviously angry about a commoner as a familiar.

"I can't allow that Miss Louise. The summoning ritual is sacred and it affects the life of a mage. To try to summon a second time would be committing blasphemy" Mr Colbert said. Louise looked as if defeated, her life was ruined by this failure. Her family will disown her and be the laughing stock of the entire noble community. Louise then looked at this lowly commoner, and decided to accept her fate.

But before anything else could be said or done, another portal opened open with Louise's ward glowing bright white. But this portal was different, as the normal green oval was replaced by a blue and grey circle with a vortex inside the border. Inside the vortex, lightning sparks out, causing the teacher to react.

"Everyone get back!" Colbert said. The students try to get back from a safe distance. All except Louise, who is standing there in shock as her wands pulses with light and energy she never felt before. And then the unexpected happen, it exploded a white and blue cloud. Everyone shielded their eyes as it was blinding, then they look on and seen something that they will make them hardly believe their eyes.

Everyone looked at the area where the vortex was to reveal another, unconscious, human. This human however was different from the one that was meant to be Louise. Where the boy had a somewhat civilian clothing, the new one had a look of military on him. (Lookup Assassin's Creed III Hessian multiplayer character, with uniform black, red stripes and undershirt, brown boots, and the moon crests are replaced with german eagles [Men's Polo Shirt], and the feathers are black and red). Everyone was staring at wonder of the uniform until they see something sticking out of him, and sees a pool of red slowly coming out.

"Montmorency, get the nurse! We have a wounded soldier!" Colbert said with urgency. The girl then run in the direction of the infirmary. Louise still stood there as the thought of having not one but two familiars wasn't enough, but they were commoners. And one of them could die today.

Montmorency came back with the nurse who then begin checking the soldier for the cause of the bleeding and sure enough it was the metal shrapnel in his lower left back and the bullet wound in his right shoulder. The bullet wound can be fixed easily, the shrapnel wound however will be an issue for it was bleed profusely and the uniform was in the way.

"Mr Colbert, bring this soldier to the infirmary. We gonna have to remove the shrapnel and patch him up." The nurse said. Mr Colbert nod and turn to the students.

"Ok everyone, that's enough for today. You may have rest of the day off to bond with your familiars. Louise you need to come with me. You need to finish the contract there." Mr Colbert said, which is received a nod from Louise. Mr. Colbert then use a levitation spell on the soldier and lead him to the infirmary to save him. Louise and the boy Louise summoned earlier followed Colbert to the infirmary to watch the events unfold.

"Not only did Louise the Zero summoned one familiar, she summoned two of them. And what was that all about that soldier? What do you think Tabitha?" Kirche asks her friend right beside her. The girl named Tabitha is a stoic person with blue short hair, glasses, a normal school uniform and a staff taller than her. She had a few thoughts about not just the fact Louise manage to summon two familiars, something unheard of in history, but also the soldier who had a strange look of Germanian origin.

"Germanian. Unknown" Tabitha said, making Kirche, Montmorency and the boy from before gasp in shock.

"You think Louise summoned a Germanian soldier? Won't this cause a incident with Germania?" Montmorency said.

"I don't think Germania would care to lose one of their soldiers, they are of course a barbaric country" The boy said

"For all we know Guiche, that soldier may not be Germanian. What do you think Taba-" Kirche said, only to see her friend not there. Instead they see her walking toward the infirmary.

"Ah, Tabitha! Wait up!" Kirche said running after her friend, to which Montmorency and Guiche ran after them.

What many would realize that day, is that those two commoners are not of this world. Both from different countries, on in a time of peace, the other a time of war.
