Hello guys! I just had this idea for a story and I hope you all like it. Just to be fair, this is not based wholly in the series, on the grounds that... I haven't finished it yet... lol I'll have the English dubbed Wakfu series in time and I promise to make one for that too when I can. This story is actually based on an idea a buddy and I had for the game. So anyway, read if you like. If not feel free to hit the return button.
Disclaimer: I do not own Wakfu, as much as I wished I did, I do not. So there.
Frederick Sucleta swallowed nervously, looking up at the building in front of him. It was a large structure sitting in the town square of the tiny town of Astrub with a large blue banner of a white gobball draped above the main doors. Men and women of every class were seated at the long tables just beyond the short fence, laughing and discussing everything in the World of Twelve. Nation meant nothing to these people. Whether you're from Amakna, Bonta, Brakmar, or Sufokia did not matter. All that mattered was you had a thirst for adventure! He looked up at the banner of the Gobball Horn guild until he felt a hand gently touch his arm and making him turn to the short young Eniripsa beside him.
"Are you feeling okay?" she asked him gently.
Frederick nodded, pushing his round glasses back in place. "Yeah... just a bit anxious." he murmured. The young Feca would be lying if he said the structure did not intimidate him. Not so much the building as the thought of all the powerful warriors that once, and still do, call it home. Nothing really ever made him feel so small. She nodded in understanding, rubbing his arm. It isn't like she was feeling any different. Suddenly he felt a clap on his shoulder as a strong-arm wrapped around his neck along with the Eniripsa.
"Calm down, piwis." comes a strong womanly voice as a Cra squeezes between them. Her right eye covered by pale blonde hair, but her left focused on Frederick with a glimmer of confidence in the cerulean orb. She smiled at him, tussling his mop of blue hair. "We got nothing to worry about, Freddy. They'll take us in."
"How do you know, Shoshanna?" Frederick asks, trying to pull her fingers from his hair.
"I just do." she replies, smirking at him. "Now let's march on in there and show them what the three of us can do." Shoshanna releases them both and moves aside, passing the fence and walking across the yard to the doors. Several of the men looked at her and whistled, admiring the beautiful Cra in her baggy black trousers and tightly fitting sleeveless shirt. She waved, flipping her short braid and letting fall back down to the back of her neck. Frederick shoke his head, but smiled a bit. He always admired her confidence, ever since they were children. She was like a big sister to him, always looking out for his best interests. Not to mention she was the best archer in the village back home in Bonta.
"Let's go then, Luly." Frederick says to the Eniripsa. The two cautiously follow after Shoshanna, passing the fence. Some of the guild members at the tables whisper to each other as the two pass, others snicker at the two "warriors." One in particular, an older looking Ecaflip, smiles assuringly at them over his hand of cards before setting them down, much to the other players dismay. Frederick looked over at the small Eniripsa and how her shoulders raised up shyly. Lulianne was always the shy type, and never liked too many people focusing on her. If Shoshanna was the big sister, that would make Luly the youngest sibling. He may not be as good a warrior a Shoshanna, but Frederick would fight anyone to protect Lulianne.
The three of them had been friends for as long as he could remember. Ever since he was a small boy he was always with the two girls, Lulianne only a few months younger than him and Shoshanna two years their senior. He remembered stories of the many accomplishments of Gobball Horn's many prestigious members and how they left all the children of the village starry-eyed. The trio made a pact that they would work hard and some day become members of this great guild, or die trying. He remembered the mix of fear and pride on his mother's face the day they set out for Astrub. The whole village was proud of them for pursuing their dreams. Who knows, they might even put the town on the map someday.
Frederick's thoughts were interrupted by Shoshanna patting his back before he ran square into the door. That would not make a very good first impression. "You ready, piwis?" said the Cra with a smirk. Lulianne nodded, then looked up at Frederick.
"Let's do this." said the Feca just before Shoshanna pushed open the wooden door.
There we go! A nice little prologue to get things started! I'll have chapter One up Soon, I promise!
