It was early morning and classes had just started at the Tristain Academy of Magic. The second years were currently attending Mrs. Cheverouse's class and she was lecturing them on transmutation. "Now class please observe closely." She had three coal rocks on her desk she pointed her wand towards and they instantly started to glow. When the light had faded the coal was no longer there but was replaced by something else.
"Oh my gosh" exclaimed Kirche "is that reel gold?" By the look on her face if her eyes opened any more her eyes would fall out of her head.
"No my dear its brass" Cheverouse replied.
"Oh" exclaimed Kirche in a disappointed tone returning to her seat noticeably less impressed.
"Now how about one of you try this now" Mrs. Cheverouse asked the class. Not many volunteered to her dismay. She looked around the room for a volunteer when she noticed a girl with pink hair taking notes in the back. "You there taking notes in the back how about you give it a try."
Everyone turned around to see who it was that she had chosen. Upon seeing the person in question everyone's eyes grew wide with fear. "Mrs. Cheverouse I think that it would be best if you chose someone else to do this" Kirche pleaded.
"I agree it's too dangerous please pick someone else" pleaded another student as did the rest of the class.
Unfortunately none of this discouraged Louise if anything it made her want to do it more. "She chose me so I'm going to do it" Louise stated boldly to the entire class and started to the front of the class to do as she was asked.
Everyone kept on begging her not to do it while others ducked for cover under their desks hopping that it would protect them. "Please Louise don't do it think this through" Kirche pleaded with her before taking cover herself.
Ignoring all of them Louise proceeded with the transmutation and just as before the coal rocks started to glow brighter and brighter until.
KABOOM
The entire classroom had been demolished and the coal rocks were no longer there. However from the looks of the classroom it had looked as if they had exploded and covered the entire classroom. "I guess I messed up a little" Louise said while wiping the soot from her face.
"How is this a little" exclaimed Malicorne.
"Your magical success rate to date has been zero" stated Guiche.
"Ya Louise the zero" Kirche shouted at her.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Upon exiting the headmasters office Louise was confronted by Kirche, Momorency, and Tabitha. "So they finally going to expel you Louise the Zero?" Kirche asked in an insulting tone.
"No" Louise replied "since the professor was warned not to use me it was decided that it was no fault of mine."
Both Kirche and Momorency were taken aback by this but quickly recovered. "No matter tomorrows the day we summon our Familiars, and when you fail to summon anything it'll prove beyond a doubt that you don't belong here Louise the zero" Kirche replied and then they began laughing.
This further irked Louise which led her to say "I'll show you. There's one spell I'm confident in and that's summon servant. Just you wait my Familiar will be strong and beautiful and divine and it'll put to shame anything you summon" Louise replied and then stormed off down the stairs to her room.
"Do you think she'll actually be able to summon anything like that Tabitha?" Kirche asked.
"Don't know" was all Tabitha replied.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
In another Dimension on earth Saito was waiting in the waiting room of General Hammond at fort Pearson. "Lieutenant the General will see you now" the assistant said.
Saito walked into the Generals office and saluted him "At ease Lieutenant. I got a new station for you. You are to be stationed aboard the newly refit Strato Carrier Columbus. You arrive tomorrow so get your gear and equipment ready Dismissed"
"Thank you Sir" Saito replied as he got up and left.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"So where they sending you this time?" Saito's Friend Lt. Garson asked.
"Their assigning me aboard ship now" Saito replied.
"That's a big shocker we're marines after all were else they going to station you. Our name does stand for my ass rides in navy equipment. So what do you think you fight first when you head out? Ever since we started colonizing other planets the things we fight get weirder looking and the same goes for their weapons."
"I hear you. How you suppose to engage in hand to hand combat if they got tentacles or if they out number you with two extra arms?" Saito replied.
"At least they go down after you shoot them in the head."
"What about that one time their brains were in their rear ends. We were literally shooting their asses off." That one got a laugh out of both of them.
"Stay safe out their man"
"You too Garson" Saito then started walking out to the tarmac to board his transport.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Back at the Tristain Academy For magic the second years where summoning their familiars. Louise was looking around at what everyone got most got the standard animals Guiche got an oversized Mole Momorency got a frog. It wasn't until she saw what Kirche and Tabitha got that she started to worry. Kirche had gotten a four foot long fire breathing salamander but it was Tabitha that took the prize in summoning a fully grown Dragon.
"Has everyone had a chance to summon?" professor Colbert asked the class.
"Not everyone" Kirche piped up.
Louise tensed at this and slowly walked up to the professor. "Alright Miss Vallière proceed."
Louise started the summoning ritual "Oh I summon thee my divine and beautiful Familiar that lives somewhere in the universe come before me."
"What kind of summoning is that" said a student.
All of a sudden there was an explosion and a cloud of smoke.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Saito's transport had just landed on the deck of the Strato Carrier Columbus. Saito proceeded to disembark and head inside when he turned to look out on the deck at everything and wasn't watching where he was going. Without looking he walked straight into the portal. The Officer of the Deck saw this and sounded the alarm that one of their Marine's had just vanished into a portal.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Everyone was coughing from the smoke that Louise had just produced. "I knew that she wouldn't be able to summon anything. All she managed to do was cause another explosion" Kirche said.
"No look" said Tabitha.
Peering through the smoke Louise started to make out a figure it was human shaped. It looked like some kind of knight but she couldn't see any sword or shield, but instead could make out 5 strange looking muskets on his back. Also on either side of his back pack she saw what looked like wings. What in the world did I summon she thought to herself staring at the strangely dressed person before her?
After realizing what had happen Saito started to get up he was wearing his power armor and was at first confused as to what had happen. He now realized he was no longer on the carrier but instead a court yard of some kind. He could hear people murmuring through the smoke not knowing whether or not they were friendly or hostiles he decided to err on the side of caution. He reached back and grabbed his M30 main battle rifle (if you want to see what it looks like it's the M29 with some modifications, side loaded 5.7 horizontal helical mag, and under barrel p 12 gauge shot gun) he shouldered his rifle and chambered a 5.7 round in the barrel. As the smoke cleared he saw that it was only children and one adult he then lowered his rifle and put the safety on.
Professor Colbert was looking at the soldier cautiously because of the musket ready to step in to stop him just in case. He relaxed when he lowered his weapon and started observing the strange armor that he was wearing.
Saito decided that it would be best to put everyone at easy and show them that he was human like the rest of them. He clicked and pushed a button on his helmet completely retracting it. The face mask lowered and his visor retracted into his helmet that retracted behind his head revealing his face and buzz cut hair. "Hello there can anybody here tell me where I am and how I got here?"
"Louise summand a commoner HA HA HA HA HA HA" said one of the students in the court yard.
"Not only did she summon a commoner she summand one that can't even speak our language Louise the zero has struck again HA HA HA HA HA HA" added another.
"Settle down everyone" Colbert said trying to calm everyone down "Miss Vallière please continue with the summoning ritual"
Louise was surprised as to what Professor Colbert had said. "But Professor it's a human I can't go through with this. I've never heard of someone contracting a human before." Louise said begging the professor not to make her continue with the ritual.
"I'm afraid you have no choice this is a sacred ritual, and I won't allow you to try again he is the familiar that is best matched for you. Now finish the ritual Miss Vallière." Mr. Colbert said unwilling to make an exception in this sacred ritual.
"Very well" Louise lamented.
Saito was unsure as to why the children were laughing or why the pink haired girl and man were arguing. He thought that what they were saying sounded familiar and reach for his PDA attached to his under wrist to identify it when all of a sudden his body froze and he could barely move at all. Suddenly the pink haired girl pointed a stick in his face spoke some words then leaned in and kissed him. After she did that he could move again. Then suddenly he felt a burning sensation course through his body and then fixate on his hand. After that he passed out suddenly exhausted for no reason.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Saito came to a few hours later in Louise's room he looked around and saw the pink haired girl from earlier. She was currently rambling on "I was hoping for something cool like a Griffin or something no a commoner why me." He couldn't understand a word she was saying and decided to do what he was going to do earlier. After accessing his PDA he discovered that she was speaking French. He activated his ocular info downloader in his visor and downloaded the French language into his brain. Once he was finished he suddenly could understand what the pink hared girl was saying.
"Excuse me miss but would you mind telling me where the hell I am." Saito said in an authoritative tone.
Louise couldn't believe that he had just spoken to her like that. "For your information you are addressing a noble and you are currently in the Tristain academy of magic, and you shall address me as with the proper respect for I am your master and you are my servant."
Saito didn't know what to make out of this he had never heard of a place called Tristain before, and as for this girl being his master he thought she was just plain crazy. "Well thanks for the information I'll be going now" and with that he was out the door.
"Hey wait come back here" Louise shouted after him then began chasing for him.
Upon exiting the room Saito checked his rifle to see if it was ok, and as far as he could tell it had no damage to it and would work perfectly. After inspecting his rifle he switched off the safety and shouldered his weapon. He moved as cautiously as he could while still moving as fast as he could checking the corners, and then moving on looking for a way out before finally discovering a descending stair case.
Saito was practically down the stair and about to enter a hallway when he saw someone. He might be a sentry just in case I try and escape he thought to himself. However if he's a sentry he's a pretty bad one flirting while on the job I can get past him easily. He closed up his helmet and activated his armors stealth function. With the special materials his suit and gear are made out of a specific electrical impulse allows his suit to bed the light around him creating an optical camouflage rendering him invisible. As soon as he got past the maybe sentry he deactivated the stealth function so as to not waste too much power and continued on.
Louise came down the stairs a little latter and came up to Guiche "Guiche did you see my Familiar go by here?"
"Why no Louise I haven't seen anybody"
"You probably weren't paying attention to anything around you" Louise said staring at the first year girl he was currently with making her blush.
"Why do you ask Louise has he run away?" Guiche replied in a snarky tone.
"Are you going to help me catch him or not" Louise said frustrated?
"Why of course it would only be proper for a gentleman to aid a damsel in distress" Guiche replied with as much pride as he could muster.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Saito had finally arrived at the ground floor when he spotted two more people cuddling together. Either this place has terrible sentries or these kinds need some supervision it seems like they're about to make out in every hallway in this academy Saito thought to himself. He then saw the exit and upon hearing the clomping of feet descending the stairway hurried to the exit.
Kirche and Dean turned around and saw Louise and Guiche come out of the stair well out of breath "What's all the commotion about" Kirche asked.
"Have you seen my familiar" Louise asked?
"Oh he ran away did he I'd have to say you're probably the first to ever have a Familiar runaway from them before" Kirche mused.
Upon exiting the building and seeing the two moons Saito knew for sure he wasn't on Earth. Unfortunately that didn't help matters because he still didn't know where he was in the galaxy. Then all of a sudden he was lifted off the ground "what the hell is going on."
