#1) Random Zero no Tsukaima Plot Bunny Attack~!

...

'I am not a failure...'

"Hurry up already Zero!"

'I will succeed...'

"What's with the hold up! Just fail already!"

'Please... answer me'

"I, Louise Francoise de Blanc de la Valliere, in the name of the five great elements, call upon my divine, beautiful, wise and powerful servant, heed my summoning and-"

"Please-"

"APPEAR!"

A violent magical explosion blew up the small space in the courtyard that was dedicated solely for familiar summonings. Smoke and dust was kicked up and blown towards the students near the summoning circle. Everyone except Louise, who was blown back from being so near the center of explosion, covered themselves from the smoke. Most raised their hands to cover their eyes, a blue haired girl hid under her dragon familiar's wing, a plump boy casts a spell to fight the dust back with wind. Louise, for her part, looked down to her knees as she sat at where she had landed, bangs covering a pair of watery and hollow eyes as she thought the most obvious thing that came to her mind.

'I... failed again, didn't I?'

Suddenly, a strong gust of wind picked up and carried the smoke and dust away. Louise heard an collective gathering of gasps coming from her fellow "classmates" and decided to looked up. Perhaps she accidentally injured one of the students with the explosions, that will only give them a better enough excuse to kick her out of the academy.

'After all, who would want such a dangerous failure to be in this prestigious institute...'

She felt a rush of despair rising from somewhere within her fragile heart when a human silhouette appeared in the smoke. The remainders of the dust clears up and Louise got a chance to examined the person that got caught within the accident that was her explosive failure. The person was a boy that seems to be around her age. He has brownish-red eyes and strawberry blonde hair (the same shade as Eleonore-neesama) that's tied up in a small ponytail. He stood in a commanding manner, with his chin tilted at a barely noticeable angle, and casts an analytical glare at everyone. As if they can actually feel him probing them, the students gave small quavers whenever his eyes brush by them.

'His presence...his stance...it's... almost like mother's.'

Louise's observation of the man already gave her a better opinion of him than the one she has of herself. She then took note of his outfit or rather, his uniform. He was wearing a long sleeved buttoned up shirt and black pants hidden under a cape like a regular student but he also had a few... additions. The most obvious add on was the sword at his waist hanging off a crooked belt. A second change was the extra metal leg and arm guards he had equipped on his body. The last was that his cape was not the black that was expected of the familiar summoning group nor was it the brown or gray of a lower classmate but a royal dark blue.

'...Is he some kind of soldier? No, he's wearing the academy uniform, he must be a student...but then... why is he standing in the familiar summoning circle?'

"Who are you?" She lets the question whispered past her mouth.

This seems to have caught the boy's attention as he turned his gaze towards her. She immediately stood up and unconsciously straighten her back while he scrutinize her.

'Truly, he is just like mother...' Was all she could think of passed the fog of nervousness the stranger conjured into her mind when he looks at her.

Professor Colbert got pass the crowd of students that were blocking his way to see the strange soldier student as well. He sensed something was off and tried to call the strange student's attention to himself but the student walked right pass him. The strange blonde student stopped in front of Louise before giving her what could only be called a glare. Louise couldn't do anything except stand there and receive his heated glare.

Suddenly, he spoke up. His voice cool and yet filled with power "Pentagon of the five elemental powers, bless this one with strength and make me her familiar."

All eyes widen as they heard the strange student's declaration. They only widened further when the strange student bowed down onto one knee and gave Louise a quick kiss on the lips. It was a peck at most and yet it was able to knock Louise into a confused stupor.

"Wha...bu...eh...ah...wha." Louise had no idea what to say. The student declared himself as her familiar? But a familiar can't be a human, much less a mage. It has never been done before. But then again, it's being done now. Is that even possible? What's happening?!

"Urg... So this is what it feels like to be on the other side." The student/ familiar grunted in pain as an familiar contract bonded itself onto the back of his hand. When it ended he pulled off the glove that covered the contract brand. he showed it to Louise and fixed a stern look at the stuttering girl.

"Greetings, my void contractor. I am known as Luis the Hero. Can I ask for the name of my noble master?" The strange student, Luis, gave Louise a smile that hauntingly reminds her of her other sister, Cattleya. Somewhere deep within her mind, she asked herself. Did mother and father ever mention anything about having a long lost son?

Challenge to put in the story!

*Luis and Louise are complete opposites of each others due to their different backgrounds and yet slightly similar due to their shared persona. Build wise, Louise is roughly five foot one inch tall while Luis is six foot one inch tall. Both have a strawberry blonde hair color, Louise leaning towards the strawberry part while Luis is leaning to the blonde part.

*Louise was raised under an extremely strict but still loving family. Because of the pressure of being the family's black sheep, she grew up to look at everything in a pessimistic viewpoint and is very soft spoken. Though she does have a mean temper, she doesn't do much with it except for letting it fuel her pessimistic outlook in life and boost an occasional outburst.

*Luis was borne under a "commoner" family and quickly grew in ranks once he joined the army at a young age. His mother, father and two younger brothers died in a fire due to (insert your own ideas here). He is extremely outgoing and will immediately tell anyone what he thinks of them, through words or hurt. He, similarly to Louise, also has a mean temper.

*Louise is still a beginner void mage like the light novel portrayals but Luis is an accomplished Square class mage of all four main elements (discluding void of course) as well as being a damn good swordsman with Gandalf's blessing (or curse). Potential comedy can be additionally added by mentioning that in the other world (Luis' world) Kirche is the beginner void mage that summoned a commoner.

*Any and all pairings are welcomed. Harem, single wife, reverse harem, loli, maids, twincest, complete dry spell, anything! Try it all! It's a field day for everyone! Just, try to keep it PG for the first few chapters. Build up something of a relationship or character before the bumping and thumping begins (if it's necessary).

*Have fun writing the story.
