Chapter One: The Summoning
"Hurry up Zero, we ain't got all day."
'' Why don't you just your pack bags and go on home? Everyone knows you're already a failure in magic."
"Cover your ears! It'll just be another explosion. "
Many more taunts erupted from the crowd as Louise begins the ritual to summon her familiar. She knows she should expect the unexpected since anything could be summoned by her spell, but what will come out will turn out to be the surprise of her life.
"Shut up! I'll prove to all of you that I am not a failure in magic!"
Louise turns to the summoning circle and aims her wand.
(POOF)
A pink smokescreen has popped out from the area she had intended to cast the spell in.
"Well, at least it wasn't a complete failure this time as there was no explosion so, congrats!"
" I smell strawberry in the air"
The whole crowd of students roared with laughter at the comment and the pink-haired mage's face suddenly turns red from shame and embarrassment. Tears wear threatening to break out but the rule of steel forbids it from happening, for she's a noble.
"N-no, I'm sure that worked" Louise whispered
Suddenly, out of the puff of pink smoke, a blue armored being at least seven foot tall emerges with a strange looking crate right beside it. ( Echo's signature Vanguard Super Soldier Power Armor)
"Is that a golem?"
" I dont think that's a golem it looks more like high quality armor than a rock and most golems I've seen are alot bigger than that and to top it all off, it has what seems to be a silver mirror on its face, golems obviously don't have that."
"And what's that weird-looking crate right next to it? I've never seen anything like that before"
ER-278 is fully revealed from the fog, HK416 assault rifle armed pointing at the directions of those voices, only to find out that he was pointing it on some students that look like they came out of a Harry Potter girls sporting white shirts, black skirts and white stockings, as well as some kind of cape on their backs, while the boys having the same shirts but others have different variations and wearing black pants, and to complete their attire, they were all holding wands, also.
" Alright Echo, the last place you were in was back at HQ armory prepping up for the next mission until a giant green disc appeared out of nowhere and got pulled in."
" Magic at work, yes, dangerous, highly, keep my guard up."
He could make out a small amount of their conversation and determined that their language was possibly French , so he activated his helmet's multi-translator and set it to French.
"Wow, Louise managed to summon a golem? No wait, it's a mini-golem, I guess Brimer felt sorry for her so he gave her the next best thing."
The crowd laughed at this comment before a bald man wearing eyeglasses silenced them with a wrathful glare.
"Please give me another try Mr. Colbert!"
He turned to his side to see a girl about 14-16 years old with strawberry pink hair and wearing the girl's uniform, the girl was pleading to the man who silenced the students earilier, he was bald, wearing glasses, had blue eyes, and sporting what seems to be a teacher's clothes from the middle ages.
To others he may look like a harmless teacher but to Echo he could easily tell that he's a retired war veteran by the way he holds himself. Serving in Homland military for 12yrs allowed Echo to get a good read on people of how they act.
"Of course not, it is forbidden you have summoned this being as your familiar and you must seal the contract; you know that Louise, "
The strawberry-haired magician whined while the Professor stood strong before the kid finally relented
Echo activated his suit's external speakers.
"Where am I and why was I brought here?" ( What the heck! why do I sound like Darth Vader, Diabolus must've played with my helmet again.)
Everyone's attention turned to the golem with shock and intimidaton as that was the last thing they expected.
"No way! That is definitely NOT a golem. "
" J-just wha-what the hell did you summon Zero!"
The strawberry-haired girl beside him recovered from her initial shock.
"What the…. No wait. What the heck is my familiar?"
"I am Colonel Vanguard ER-278 of Homland galactic special forces, Call sign Echo 20"
" What are you talking about? And you're saying you are just a very tall commoner inside that weird blue/silver armor?"
" Oh if you only new what I really am."
"A commoner?"
"Never mind, take off your helmet."
"Why should I?"
"JUST DO IT!"
"Nope."
The man who the strawberry-haired girl referred to as Mr. Colbert stepped in.
"Please Louise, let me explain things to him as this must be very new to him."
"O-okay."
So the kid's name is Louise huh.
Mr. Colbert then turns toward the Vanguard.
"First of all, I must apologize for my student's actions."
"It is okay sir"
The military instinct kicked in and he subconsciously saluted.
" There's no need for such formalities, just call me Mr. Colbert I am a teacher in this prestigious school, which is known as the Tristain Academy of Magic, anyway let me explain things to you in a short version, this young girl here whose name is Louise is your new master and you are her familiar, essentially, her servant, so please obey her instructions to you in order to complete your summoning."
It didn't take Echo a long time to know what meant, he has taken various classes that teaches magic and it's history. (Felicity Magic 101)
" What if I refuse? "
" Well….. that never happened before so…"
This got the teacher stuttering, he seriously did not expect them to not know what to do if a person refuses to be some lowly servant to a snobby kid, which is a lot more likely to happen than not.
"so?"
"Well, you aren't supposed to refuse since the contract has been sealed, and if you do then I will have to force you to accept it."
The Vanguard then thought to himself:
"A civilian like you can FORCE someone like me? I highly doubt it."
"By yourself?"
Right now the crowd was in complete silence, a lowly commoner had just belittled their teacher, then they started laughing at the strange armored being and Louise, as she should have been responsible for her familiar.
At that time Louise was thinking to herself:
"What, did my Familiar just challenge Mr. Colbert?!"
Said man then raises his hand and makes a small fireball appear right above it and floats.
"Yes, by myself."
Faster than the eye could see, Echo already has his 12inch long combat knife under Mr. Colberts neck. This shocked and scared everyone, it stayed silent for an entire minute.
" It is unwise to underestimate your enemy even...if they don't seem to be what they are" (Okay, I gotta admit the voice does gives off a intimidating aura to my whole character )
" But...I'll play along with the whole familiar thing" Echo pulls away the knife and places it back on the magnatic strap on his right shoulder.
"But approach me with ill intent once again I will not hesitate to...Retaliate" Echo emphasis the last word sternly.
With the way Echo emphasized the last word it sent shivers down everyone's spine except Mr. Colbert he just kept his cold stare until he nodded.
(Hmm...a war veteran that explains why he didn't express any fear...interesting.)
" Now, Miss Louise the Familiar" Colbert still kept his eyes on the fimiliar for any wrong move.
" No-now as I said before, pl-please take off your helmet" she said with a tone of fear and hesitation face red with shame and anger for what her familiar just did."
Echo was now suspicious as to what they were planning, but he knew that if they were going to try harming him, they would not only fail, but they would live to regret it, so he just decided to play along.
He reaches for his helmet and pops it out with pressurized gas/air popping out of it, much to the student's curiosity if this being was indeed human.
"There I took, now let's get this over with." Echo said in a slightly annoyed tone.
The crowd gasps in shock.
The being standing before them was indeed a human soldier, he was male and looked to be around age 25, he had short dark brown hair, brown eyes , and he had a scar lining on his left eyebrow, which was no doubt testament to his battles in war. And he was also attractive by most female standards.
Once again Louise recovers from her shock and spoke:
"W-well, now that is done, please kneel down."
Echo complied and kneeled down to about Louise's height. ( Louise stands around 5.2ft, Echo's 6.10ft)
"Now what?"
"Now this will make me sick but…."
" what are you talking…"
At mid-sentence the pink-haired mage suddenly darted forward and kissed Echo while he was wondering what she meant in her earlier statement.
They stayed like that for about two minutes then her lips parted with his.
"You will now address me as master since you are now my familiar and I have just sealed the contract."
Echo was left stuck to his thoughts on what just happened.
"A kikil a ngaduch kang kalsakel el ngalek? She just kissed me a few moments ago then told me that she was my master?"
His thoughts were interrupted by a souring pain in his right hand, comparable to that of being hit from a plasma shot. ( Meh, I've dealt worst )
He places his left hand right above his right hand directly above where the pain was coming from for a moment or two before deciding to remove his gauntlet.
He was surprised and annoyed what he saw, a white glowing rune at the back of his hand.
"What the…" (Great, now I have a weird tattoo on top of my right hand. )
Professor Colbert spoke with no sense of malice, indicating that he accepted his mistake earlier.
"The contract is sealed, now move along, as other students will also be summoning their own familiars, and Louise, lead this man to your room."
He turned towards the Vanguard.
"She will entertain your questions there, now go and I'll call for the school's staff to help carry that large box you brought with you."
"That will not be necessary, professor."
He then proceeds to lift the two ton supply and weapons drop crate with one arm, which completely shocks the audience yet again.
"Alright, shall we go now?"
As they were walking toward the academy Echo couldn't help but get a weird sense of deja vu and it really confused him to why does these place seem so familiar. Then something compelled him to look toward the sky as he did he was shocked at what he saw, two moons one pink the other blue.
Echo couldn't help but let a smile form inside his helmet.
( Well, what do you know the multi-verse theory has finally been proven true.)
