First of all I'd like to start out with saying that this is my first ever fan fiction, so I do hope you guys really enjoy it. Not only that, but I decided to make it a love interesting story. It does get very smutty so if you're not into that kind of stuff, then don't read.

I tried my best to make the beginning of the story interesting...actually, all of the story interesting.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated, especially in the case of the future chapters where lots of romance scenes end up happening.

And like the summary says, this is rated M for later chapters. You'll see why.

For my final note: League of Legends is the property of Riot Games. I do not own League of Legends or any of it's character. This story is purely fan-fiction.


"We need you to meet outside the institute or war tomorrow, for we are going for a trip to Bandle City." Poppy said seriously up at the front of the Mess Hall. The yordles had occupied it for a message from The Iron Ambassador. "This'll be tomorrow, and we don't know how long we'll be at Bandle City, but we're going," She said again, as the yordles cheered, they were happy to finally leave the institute and be able to enjoy some leisure time. "I know how hard it has been for all you yordles to have to stay here at the institute and be away from Bandle City, and that is exactly why we're going." She said loudly, more cheers came from the yordles. As fun as this trip honestly sounded, my mind wasn't really in it.


The next morning I had gotten up and packed some of my things in the massive suitcase I had for the trip. I obviously wasn't going to be able to take Tristy with me on the trip, but I could still survive. I took enough clothes to last me a lifetime for the trip and however long the actual stay at Bandle City was going to be. Hell, I didn't even know how long the trip itself was going to be. I had made my way out to the outside of the institute, where the only ones who were waiting there were Poppy and Lulu. Lulu was blabbing on about toads or some kind of fungus, Poppy didn't seem to care at all.

I sat down on one of the steps on the massive staircase with my suitcase next to me. Poppy had heard me set it down and turned around.

"Rumble, get over here, we won't bite." Poppy said in a sarcastic tone, Lulu giggling. I sighed loud enough for her to hear me and picked up my suitcase and went down to the bottom of the staircase where they were. I sat on the floor looking around, Poppy was just busy trying to look for the vehicle that was going to transport us.

"Rumble, are you sure you're okay?" Lulu asked me from behind, I turned around.

"Why do you ask?" I asked her, the female yordle was doing some weird thing with Pix with her hands.

"I dunno, I just always see you looking…depressed. Like you don't know what to do, or what is happening." She said quietly, Poppy was waving from the bottom of stairs to gesture Corki and Teemo to come down the stairs to come and meet us.

"I honestly don't know, I can feel it myself." I said gloomly. Lately a lot of things have been on my mind. I finally noticed how much of my time Tristy has taken, and why she has. And then there was him…

"Well, hope you feel better!" Lulu said happily, and skipped away to Corki who was coming down the stairs.

Whatever. I thought to myself. Don't know why she even cares. We had waited at the bottom of stairs for a whole half hour when the vehicle came, it was some sort of weird long wheeled vehicle that didn't seem all that big. After it came, we had to wait for Heim who was too busy trying to stash his turrets incase of some emergency of some sort. Once he did come down, we made our way onto the vehicle. I had sat down in the middle of the vehicle while everyone was gathering in the back. I couldn't care less, I liked to be alone anyway. Ziggs had come on the vehicle, or bus, as Poppy had called it, and he had sat next to me.

"Hiya!" Ziggs had said happily, smiling his usual big grin at me. I turned from the window.

"Hi." I said giving him a meek smile. I really hadn't talked and hanged with Ziggs in the past before, but I always had a feeling about him... Even though he rarely did talk to me, he was comfortable to start up a conversation. And when he did, he was good at it, keeping the conversation long and sometimes interesting. I really liked hearing him talk.

"Oh come on! Cheer up!" Ziggs said loudly. Poppy began talking from the front of the bus.

"Now, we are going to make our way to Noxus. The only reason why is because we're taking a ship to Bandle City from there, the Sablestone Mountains are just too hard to cross," Poppy said loudly, I heard some groans from the yordles behind me. "However, the trip on this bus will hopefully be relatively short, we will most likely be at Noxus in at least eight hours, where we will stay the night there." She said sternly, and sat back down in the driver's seat and started the engine of the bus. I didn't know she had the ability or the rights to drive a vehicle. Not sure if anyone does, including myself.

"Well, this'll be fun!" Ziggs said happily to me, I noticed he wasn't wearing his usually metal helmet and metal armor he wears, but a normal looking red jumpsuit. He still had his goggles on, giving me a feeling of disconnection.

"You know what, it will be, as long as I make the best of it." I said positively, giving a bigger smile than my previous one. My smile seemed to please him.

"Good, good!" He said, as the bus passed the gates of the institute and east to Noxus. "Now, what are you excited to doing back in Bandle City?" Ziggs asked me, he was fiddling with his goggles.

"Getting some new parts for Tristy, hopefully. Still haven't completed her." I said seriously, seeing his expression stay in his big smile.

"Oh, of course, Tristy! Well, I am excited to get back to the Yordle academy. Need to check up here and there." He said happily, he turned his head to the seat across us to ask Teemo something. I noticed his earring shine as he turned. I always loved that thing. The rest of the trip went as it had began, Ziggs kept talking to me about matters such as bombs, gunpowder, bombs, dynamite, bombs, TNT, bombs, and at one point, fuses. It didn't matter to me, I could listen to him as long as he wanted me to. We reached Noxus later than expected, the sun was at the horizon. We had settled into the Du Couteau manor where the royal family had allowed us to stay. There weren't that many rooms, so everyone had to share. Except of course, Poppy.

In the end, Ziggs and I got to share a room, which made me feel a bit better, knowing I'd get to be around him more. We went into our room, which had one bed, luckily. Once we had got settled, I went off to shower, while Ziggs tirelessly worked on his bombs to make them more efficient, although I thought they were efficient to begin with. Once I had gotten out, Ziggs was already getting comfortable in the bed, he didn't change out of his jumpsuit, but he had finally taken off his green goggles, revealing the green eyes I had only seen once before. I had changed into my thin white jumpsuit that I usually slept in, and I crawled into bed next to Ziggs who has constantly lighting and defusing a bomb the size of a nut.

"Uhm?" I blurted, as he tinkered with the thing, I was mainly scared of gunpowder or fuse burns getting on the bed.

"Don't worry, it's made to not make a mess," The yordle said calmly, defusing it once more and throwing it at the wall, it made a little dent in the green and gold leaf wallpaper. He grinned at me and laughed. "Whatever, the thing is made to dent things!" He laughed loudly. That made me smile, just showed how careless he was. "And see, I made you smile! Success!" He hollered, covering his face with the gold colored pillow. I had no idea why he did that but then I noticed why after he moved the pillow away from his face. He had a bomb in his hand. It was heart-shaped and had no fuse, but it had the weight and rattle of a bomb. It was a bit bigger for both of my hands when holding. He tossed it at me. "Good night buddy." He said quietly, and turned off the only lamp in the room. I felt the bomb in my hands for a while, thinking deeply about what this could mean. I fell asleep with it in both my hands.


Let me end with saying that I am editing this and other chapters HEAVILY. I'm adding stuff, removing stuff, fixing grammatical errors and detail errors. So if you see things change, they'll change. I'm trying to do my best with making this a great story, and having no reviews is making it a bit hard. *sniffle sniffle*
