This is a side story of my fic Tsukaima no Saito. I feel like there are many thing need to be included in the story, that how this come to existence. Tsukaima no Saito SS will basically deal with any event that didn't shown in main story. that not all, it also cover something that was left out in main storyline. It also will be on other character P.O.V instead of Saito and some of them maybe an OC.
Let start this side story with this chapter first shall we.
Disclaimer : I don't own Zero no Tsukaima. I only own what I own.
A few days after summon to this unknown world Saito stop and start thinking about his life from here on.
first he doesn't have a clue how to return home.
Second he doesn't have anywhere else to go besides staying here making it impossible to live this village. Not that he need to since that green hair lady said she will investigate for him. That what she said but it had been a few days but Saito haven't seen her since.
"Hey, are you listening."
At that sudden voice Saito were brought out from his musing as he finally noticed his surroundings.
Surrounding him were a bunch of children ranging from 7 to 12 years old. According to Tiffa this village were created as an orphanage for children who mostly had lost their parent or doesn't have anyone else for them.
"You are…" Saito trailed of as he look at the girl who had been saking him off to broke him from his stuppor.
"my name Reia, Onii-chan are you a pervert?"
At that question Saito doesn't know how to answer. It was his fault in the first place that someone will lable him as that but hearing from a girl about 10 years of age just make it worse.
'I cant let this go on' was Saito thought as he turn with a smile on his face. This is children so he must be polite not to scare them off. But before he could tell them he not a pervert someone else interrupt him.
"of course he is, just look at his face you can tell he a pervert. Even Matilda Nee-chan said so."
If he remember correctly this boy is called Gim. If not for him still being a kid Saito would have shout at him.
"Don't said that gim, do you even know what a pervert mean." The older Kid who Saito can easily tell was the oldest beside Tiffa scold Gim. At least someone was mature enough in this village.
"o-of course I do, a pervert is a bad guy. That mean he's a bad guy… right?" Gum said though from his tone one could tell he didn't even knew the meaning of Pervert.
"Sorry for that, but the children had been a bit anxious with a new residence in the village. My name Ryan, what is yours?" the oldest kid Ryan said politely. Just like he said Saito can see the other children were looking at him some of them scared but some of them look more curious thatn scared.
"It okay, to asnwer your question my name is Hiraga Saito but you can call me Saito. And I'm definitely not a pervert! That was an accident!" Saito emphasize the last part strongly. Not that most of the children understand what it mean beside a few children here who seem old enough to know that it mean.
"Hey, Onii-chan let play" one of the children said. seeing that Saito doesn't have anything better to do. He tried to swing that Heavy axe again but found himself collapse after a few swing. He wonder how Tiffa able to do it without any trouble?
At least playing with children doesn't seem to tiring. That what he thought at that time.
XXXXXXXXXXXX
"Pant, Gasp, I'm done for today." Saito said as his collapse on the ground. He underestimates the children as they all right now seem full of energy without showing so much fatigue. This make him want to just crawl in the hole and never come out. Even children can beat him in term of endurance, he start to wonder how long he could survive in this world before founding a way back.
"Are you okay, did you need to take a rest?" As the concern Ryan which make Saito felt more depressed. Bing an adult he was supposed to look after the children not the other way around.
"thank… you guys continued playing. Onii-chan will be sitting right here." Saito said as he pat the ground near the tree before sitting. The fact that all of them seem to speak Japannese make Saito wonder. Why Japannese, shouldn't they be a language of it own if he was in different world. Then again the rune on his chest doesn't make any sense either. Not to mention that the writing is definitely not Japannese making it impossible for Saito to read any of the book.
Maybe there some force that work here making it possible for me to understand them and for them to understand me. That is the only conclusion Saito could make. But before he could think a more about it a scream that pierced through the entire forest can be heard and Saito immediately look at the direction of the scream.
His eye widen as he saw Gim who on the verge of tear right now because of something that had been wrapping on his leg. It was a snake about the length of ten meter wrapping out his leg as it start to climb it body. the other kid look scared as non dare to make a move.
Saito seeing this move his body as he get near Gim. Beside him were Ryan who had been sweating bullet as he seem trying to found a way to help Gim but unable to act. This situation is not something to take light of but Saito being a slow person he is fail to comprehend the seriousness of the situation as he grab the snake mouth with his hand. the snake struggled but Saito gather all the strength he had as he remove the snake from Gim.
Saito and the snake Struggled a bit as time passed.
"need some help!" Saito finally said. he can't keep the snake bind forever not to mention he wasn't exactly at full strength make it harder. Ryan after seeing this ran to the nearest palce where they chop a wood.
The snake were about a few centimeter from Saito neck but Saito upon noticing Ryan holding out an Axa use all of his strength left as he push the snake back to the ground as Ryan use the change to kill it with the Axe.
"phew… though I was dead for a second." Saito said and truth to his voice he was sweating bucket. Even Ryan can comprehend whether he brave or just stupid when he grab the snake like that. Even so Saito seem to had win all the other children trust after what he did just now.
"Is everyone okay! I heard a scream." Tiffania appear with a worried look. When Gim saw Tiffa he ran and cry at her while Ryan take the chance to explain what happened.
"a-are you all okay, did anyone get hurt." Tiffania start to panic after hearing that.
"calm down Tiffa, everything fine now, let call it a day, I think Gim need some time before he can recover." Saito said to Tiffa.
"y-yes… come Gim, let go home." Gim follow Tiffa after that. and Saito were about to follow when…
"That so cool Nii-chan."
"yeah… I don't know anyone brave enough to do that kind of stunt."
Saito got bombarded by the other children. Those who have scared of him before show no sign of scare at all. In fact they look rather fond of Saito.
That was the start of Saito life in the other world. as he gain new family in his life so does the lost wll hurt him in the future.
But because of that incident Saito had start to take up using sword which he make from some wood. He want to become stronger in order not to let that kind of accident happen again.
It was week later before Saito got a gift from Matilda which consist of one Talking sword and a curve sword.
Tell me what you think. This fic will not follow the chronological timeline meaning that It possible that the next chapter could be after Saito arrive at Tristain and the next could gone back when Saito still living in Albion.
There are many thing that I want to include in the main storyline but if did that the fic may take to long that I don't even knew when Saito will become Gandalfr. In other word this Side story will focus on something like that and to fill some plot hole.
If there some scene that you think I should have wrote on Main fic feel free to tell me whether through Review or PM. I see what I could do about it.
that is all from me.
