The Wuju Bladesman and the Nine Tails Fox

Author's Note:

I do not claim anything related to League of Legends, or to Riot Games. This is just a fanfiction. Anything here can be purely coincidental. Some things can be fictional and do not have appearance on the game. Ahri is one of the new champions, so her name isn't on one of the catalogues.

First time writing, hope you enjoy the story!

Chapter 1: Strange Kind of… Animal?

Master Yi had recently returned from a summoner conflict in the Summoner's Rift. It was snowing in the Institute of War, as the year was finishing. After countless battles as a summoned champion and as a tutor in the teaching of young summoners, He only wanted to visit his reconstructed Ionian pool to remember his past, when he was still passing on the ancient art of Wuju to his young apprentices at his home village. Well Wukong is his new apprentice, but still didn't please him. The horrors that Singed left in his village were so immense that it is painful for him to remember. His decision about coming to the League of Legends was correct: He wanted to keep Noxus from embracing terror and to avenge his people. If these things were to happen, he would be pleased and would rest for the rest of his life, well without forgetting his duty as a master of the Wuju style.

Yi, on the road home, was polishing his blade as it went through a lot of enemies. It was not right to leave the blade like that. Well, as said before, it was snowing, and his house wasn't so far from the Institute of War, as he is often called to tutorials, first hour in the morning of a new day.

Before returning, he had promised Soraka, that he would be helping her to hone her magical abilities.

It was late when Yi heard a sound. He readied his sword and got in a state of alert. Was he going to fight outside the Fields of Justice? Fights outside them are prohibited, but other champions as Warwick would simply break the rules and get away satisfied with the result of their illegal fights.

He saw a light, coming from his right side. He didn't know if it was Ryze, o if it was Skarner. Both of them are not rule breakers, but would randomly appear in front of any other champion.

The light started to dim. Yi definitely assured himself it was someone homeless.

An exiled Summoner, perhaps? The light faded.

He ran to the light's previous location with his unparalleled agility and found himself with a nine tails fox. It was covered with snow, tried to protect itself from the breeze but fell unconscious. Maybe a fox from the woods of South Ionia roamed around to end up here? But, as he examined the fox closer, he saw a human hand. That discovery surprised him.

He lifted the tails and they revealed a girl, who was there suffering from hypothermia. Normally one would think she's something strange, but for him she was human.

Yi then decided to take the girl home, and attend to her injuries until she gets better.

At his home, he placed the girl on his futon, and started to prepare some medicine for cases of extreme cold he learned from his Ionian colleagues.

Someone knocked the door, only to smash it down. It was Warwick.

-"Where's the fox?" he asked, reading his claws.

-"There's no point fighting this out here, it's pointless." Yi responded.

-"If you're not answering my question, you shall meet your death!"

And when about to cross weapons, one of the elder summoners appears, snaring Warwick and pronouncing these words:

-"It is enough, Champion; you shall endure punishment for this and your previous actions!"

As Warwick gets teleported from Yi's house, the girl wakes from her unconsciousness.

She attempts to stand up, but Yi stops her.

-"You have endured such trip in order to get here. Now rest, mage, so you can recover from your journey". Once said that, he went to check if the medicine was ready. While going, he asked himself:

-"What kind of animal, is she?"
