OVERVERSE [NOOBZILLA] NOTE

If anyone coming to this side story has already read from Chapter 13 of [Stage 2 Zerg Swarm Empress] to Chapter 17 then just skip to the later part of this chapter where Noobzilla returns to Firelink shrine after defeating the gaping dragon. The rest is just what you've already read in the above chapters. And also don't expect this side story to update very often. I'm writing it in between the chapters of Swarm Empress.

Noobzillas home 8:00 PM

Late in the evening the sound of keyboard typing and youtube music played in Noobzillas beadroom as he finished proofreading and polishing chapter 12 of arc two of his fanfic story, The Zerg Swarm Empress. Upon completion he noticed a odd sentence on the bottom of the chapter page he didn't write and tried to delete them but it didn't work for some reason so he had to post the chapter as is.

"Annnd done. Huh? I wonder what was up with that sentence at the end of the last chapter? I hope i'm not being trolled by some hacker asshole online."

"Actually." a voice sounded from out of nowhere scaring the ever living shit out of Noobzilla and making him and his chair fall backwards in a clatter and land in a undignified position on the floor.

"Uuugh what?!" Noobzilla exclaimed as he stared at the ceiling a moment.

"That was me," Psyon finished as he tilted his head at the floor bound Noobzilla.

Noobzilla from his position on the floor looked up (or across his room) to see of all people Psyon exactly as he imagined looking back at him.

"Are you going to get up? or just lay there with that dumb look on your face?" Psyon asked as Noobzilla took another few moments to blink before calmly getting up and standing his chair up right. Noobzilla stared at Psyon and Psyon stared at Noobzilla.

"What... the ever living #uck... are you doing here?" Noobzilla said in a mostly calm voice that had a tone of curiosity and WTF is going on written on it.

"Glad you asked," Psyon replied. "I do suppose a explanation is in order. I decided to come see you after I saw that your not a one hit wonder with your stories second arch. Granted your stories first arch was good but it could have used a few more chapters. Maybe a space battle between the humans and Ellen's Zerg or maybe the humans getting more from the Protoss tech other then just antigravity drives. And maybe a rewriting to improve the wording."

Noobzilla stared blankly at Psyon before sighing and pinching the bridge of his nose."Ok... so your here to gave me what? critic on my story. And if your here I suppose my theory about the Fractal-verse is correct."

Psyon shrugged. "Mostally. Your correct in thinking universes split into two... mostly identical copies like biological cells when ever a interdimensional traveler like me crosses into them as a defense response to maintain the original date of that universe as per the law of conservation of information and create new possibilities. The first universe, the [Over-verse] is identical to the original in all respects while the second universe the [Under-verse] containe's, or quarantines you could say, the interdimensional traveler and all the possibilities of what they'll do in that universe. But there are a few places where you missed the mark. For onething multiverses also behave like this, like say the Rick and Morty universe."

"Oh hell here we go," Noobzilla sighed as he face palmed but continued to listen.

"The Rick and Morty multiverse itself has around... 88 trillion different parallel dimensions. But the Rick and Morty multiverse is partitioned off and separated from all others by a multiverse scale dividing barrier that is also apart of the system of reality that protects the innate possibilities of each multiverse from the shenanigans of dimension hoppers like Rick. And when someone crosses into such a multiverse it also divides into a unaffected Over-multiverse and a Under-multiverse that holds the interdimensional traveler. And second, universes and multiverses all have the ability to recognize if a interdimensional traveler is from them or another dimension by the quantum reality frequency or QRF of their souls and material bodies which is unique to each and every universe or multiverse and everything in them.

If their QRF is liken to their biometric and DNA date, then their karma is like the ID and history which is the sum of a their actions in their past and present states of being. What all that means is if some ones QRF and Karma are are incorrect then the universe will split into the aforementioned Over and Under-verses. A few interesting facts too is that a universe or multiverse that a person has traveled too will recognise that person via the karma they generate by being there and will always resynchronize with that person when they try to return to that type of universe."

Noobzilla tilted his head in thought. "Huh, so if a dimension hopper goes to... let's say... the Starwars universe and then to the Battlestar galactica universe and back again the underverse version of those universes will recognise them so no matter what and they'll always return to the underverse version of those universes they first created when they dimension hopped, and not to the Over-verse version which would constantly create new Under-verses."

Psyon nodded. "Correct. And if a dimension hopper travels to more than one dimension all the different universes they traveled to will be synchronised and connected by Karma into a multiverse by themselves and create a quarantined multiverse for the dimension hopper. Another fun fact too, if someone from a universe, let's say SG1 from the Stargate universe (not the stargate universe series) using the Quantum Mirror or any other method known in their universes canon, travels to a alternate version of their own universe, it will not cause the universe to split into a Over and Under-verse but will simply create a alternate timeline."

Noobzilla shrugged. "Ok so my theory is... mostly correct. I guess there's a version of me in the Over-verse original of my universe then."

"Correct. And more than likely that version of you is aware of us meeting and has integrated it into his version of his fanfic story as some 4th wall braking thing where they explain how the Fractal-verse works."

Noobzilla crossed his arms,"Hmmm so I should fully explain the Fractal-verse thing then huh."

Psyon nodded as Noobzilla began his full explanation of the fractal-verse.

"Ok so on the internet there are other versions and theories about the universe and multiverses out there like the Omniverse and that 'other' Fractelverse and the Archverse's. But here's the thing they don't account for time and interdimensional travelers that generate more possibilities in the form of alternate timelines and under-verses that are alternate versions of the original universe and multiverses that allow the universe to both remain the same and change dew to the aforementioned interdimensional and time travelers.

You see My (updated) idea of reality is that it's a possibility generator that pumps out all kinds of information in the form of alternate (time travel) and parallel (different dimensions) universes that are based on differing decisions, limitations and freedoms of each and everyone and thing in that universe and multiverse, like physics for example or how certain parallel universes like the Marvel and DC multi-verses allows for super powers while others like the stargate SG1 or Battlestar galactica universes allow such only to a limited extent, or not at all.

But there are always possibilities and impossibilities and that's where beings like Psyon come in. You see their purpose is to basically act like fanfiction writers, except real, and what they do creates entirely new universes and multiverses. They create under-verses and change or alter events in a universe or multiverse in a way that's not not normally possible due to the way the universes physics and or people are, which will always be limited to a extent based on their personalities, abilities where their born, what they do with their life's and who they are as a person and or the group their with. This generates new possibilities and universes and multiverses growing reality like a growing lifeform although its a form of life based on possibilities and information and not matter or energy like we understand."

Psyon smiled a bit at Noobzillas explanation. "I believe that's a good explanation of the fractal-verse. But to explain more about my... people as you could refer to them as. Is that were reality splicers taking certain types of information and re a ranging it into new and varied forms that can not occur on their own. We can also create new universes from the date of others which is how I created Ellen's universe."

Noobzilla raised a eye brow. "Hmm so I guess self awareness is a requirement for doing your job."

Psyon nodded. "Yes. Only self aware beings have a real grasp of creativity. Also fun fact, self aware beings can link with the fractal possibility field or FPF that contains all information in the fractal-verse and that's where your idea for Ellen's universe and the story your writing came from. From your perspective anyway. There are a few distinctive types of thoughts the brains of sentient being can generate. One is thoughts concerning one's self. Two. Thoughts of others like your loved ones. Three. Thoughts concerning survival and the surrounding environment or work. And lastly thoughts of possibilities that most call their imagination. And it is these that link a person to the FPF which is connected any and all universes and multiverses in the Fractal-verse together.

Noobzilla tilted his head in thought. "So it's like a internet of sorts that allows people to have a glimpse into other universes in the Fractal-verse to a limited degree. But in reality its them seeing actual possibilities that exist out there in the Fratal-verse"

"Correct. I created Ellen's combination universe and you observed it through your connection with the Fractal possibility field that connected to your imagination. Also Noobzilla. I'll be addressing you by your fanfiction site name. My people can make normal beings like you into one of us just so you know."

Noobzilla shrugged, shaking his head. "Uh no thanks if that's what your asking. Im a little to invested in my current life thank you very much."

Psyon shrugged. "Of course. Not right now anyway. And also since we're here how about going to another reality for some fun. Your choice."

"Uhh is it going to be like Dr. who where you get me back just a few seconds after we leave?"

"Yes. Time is relative and not connected between differing universes, except certain multiverses. You'll be getting back just thirty seconds after we leave," Psyon answered.

"Well then let's go tooo Dark Souls 1."

"Hmm really. There?"

Noobzilla huffed as he shook his head. "Hey you said my choice. If we're going to go on a interdimensional adventure I would like like to start some place I know. And also we are NOT, being all pacifist and running around from danger like Dr. Who and his companions."

"Agreed. Violence is more entertaining in proper amounts. So should I make the version of Dark Souls normal or find, or create a version that's more realistic."

Noobzilla though a moment. "I've always wanted to create my own magic and have custom armor and weapons forged and run through that city that's visible from Fire link shrine. Oh and some of the areas could be a bit larger, and the enemies HAVE to be able to think about combat tactics. Well enemies that aren't brain dead hollows or beasts anyway."

Psyon looked off into the distance."Ok then a version not limited by game mechanics. ...found one that matches your description,"

Psyon said as he opened a gateway in space. The edges of which looked like a constantly folding ring of space that's folding into itself with a image in the middle.

Noobzilla looked into the opening in space that showed the inside of the starting room of Dark Souls 1. The Northern Undead Asylum.

"This is going to be good. Or very bad. Either way it should be fun at least."

---

Northern Undead Asylum.

The Northern undead asylum a massive prison built in the snowy mountains of the far north, replete with the insane and hollow undead whom the living ostracized and banished until the end of the world. In a empty dark cell at the eastern edge of the asylum space folded in on its selfe and split open widening, revealing Noobzilla a moment later. He walked through the interdimensional gateway stepping into the cell that is the beginning point in the Dark Souls game. Swiping his head side to side he looked around the cell seeing but a bed of hay in the corner and one window looking out into the snow caped mountains beyond. Taking in a breath of air only he coughed from the rancid smell of rotting flesh, food, and who know's what else.

"Cough, cough, uh cough, ugh ahh, thats... thats... I don't know what to call THAT but is horrible. Noobzilla exclaimed as he covered his nose with his right arms inner elbow.

"Well this version of Dark souls was made to be much more realistic." Psyon stated stepping beside Noobzilla as the portal closed behind them. "Want to go over the rule's and powers now?"

"Ugh yes please," Noobzilla answered with a muffled voice.

Psyon nodded and begun his explanation of the differences between this reality and the game Noobzilla played. The changes weren't too extreme but the world as Psyon stated before is now realistic so there's no glitching attacks through walls and other game BS that gets players absolutely livid. But on the other hand the enemies particularly the ones 'not hollow' are smarter and won't fall for tactics that would work in the game, but the hollowed enemies are still really just dumb zombies with weapons. Another change is the inventory system is now a power, kind of like Gilgamesh's 'gate of babylon' from the Fate/stay night anime. But one can't shoot the weapons out of portals like him, just swap the items weapons and equipment to the quick select inventory which is a separate but related power.

In the quick select inventory, which includes six slots for weapons and shields, plus slots for one full set of armor and eight slots for rings on eight of the fingers and eight slots for sub items or small weapons like firebombs and knives, can be equipped and worn and quick swapped out like in the game including the rings and armor but they all add to the overall weight.

Yet another change was that the blacksmiths can all now forge custom weapons, armor and rings but only certain ones can imbue rings with a effect or combo effect that can boost Noobzillas states or give another effect. Other equipment can also now be made like bracelets that can be used as catalysts for the three types of magic, Miracles, Pyromancy and Sorcery.

"Well that's great. I can have a custom armor set and equipment made," Noobzilla chirped, interested in the new possibilities.

"Glad you approve," Psyon said as he reached into his coats pocket and pulled out a baseball sized opalescent crystal orb and handed it to Noobzilla.

"It's a orb of power. You know like a shard of power from one of those CYOAs (choose your own adventure pages) you like. Only more powerful."

Noobzilla looked at the orb a moment before taking it in hand. "So how do I use it."

"Just place it onto your chest and it will activate."

"Well... here goes nothing," Noobzilla shrugged as he placed the orb onto his chest.

The orb glowed brighter as it phased into Noobzillas body passing stright through his clothes and flesh. The feeling was like a cross between a numbing sensation and being pressed on by a great weight without being pushed back. When the orb was completely phased into his body Noobzilla let out a cry of pain and bent over hands on his knees supporting him as he gasp for breath.

"Whoo ahhh uhhh ugh. That... that was intense."

After recovering Noobzilla experimented a little and opened his menu screen which worked just like in the game and was superimposed over and blocked his normal vision much like in the game except he saw from a first person view. It controlled by thought and by looking at the item, weapon or armor part he wanted to select. After learning that Noobzilla continued learning all the basic controls of the inventory and moved on to the character customization screen where he changed his bodies form to be more physically fit like a athlete who spent years working out but whos muscles weren't too large or to small. He also selected the master key as his starting item. And the knight as his starting class.

Noobzilla also learned his menu had a new part that showed ten shards of power that once was the orb of power that was absorbed into his body. After looking that part over Noobzilla discovered that each shard could grant him one million souls and a lot of other things, however he decided not to waste such a valuable and rare resource for something he could get by just grinding through the world even if it will shave off a lot of time. Noobzilla wanted to take his time gaining real experience fighting and becoming stronger so spending a few weeks grinding for souls and leveling up like normal was not that big of a problem and he didn't want to waste such a rare resource like shards of power which could be far more useful later on some time.

The door to the cell opened revealing a long hallway with a few hollows in it. Noobzilla took in a deep breath as he steeled himself for the battles to come and then left the cell. Walking through the hall he came across a hollow who ignored him until he attacked. He made three swings with his broken sword in experimental arc's that slashed into the hollows flesh. The hollow fell and dissolved into puffs of smoky light.

"Huh! heavier than I thought,"Noobzilla exclaimed taking in how it feels to hit something with a real weapon as he looked at his rusted broken blade and noticed that he felt the odd feeling of a few souls (or what energy people in DS call souls) enter him but just a few dozen or so.

A moment later Noobzilla was startled by heavy foot falls behind him.

Turning around Noobzilla looked through bars of old rusted steel as a giant demon strolled around aimlessly in a giant room. "Ehhh I remember you."

Noobzilla then sprinted down the hallway not wanting to catch the large demon's attention or test out if he can brake through the stone wall and steel bars. A little further down the hallway he quickly backstabbed the other hollow before proceeding up the stairs through a short hallway and into a partly flooded room with a hollow just chilling out in the far corner. Ignoring the hollow Noobzilla proceeded to the next room taking a ladder up to a small courtyard which had the first bonfire which he lit and rested at for a moment before proceeding to the large set of doors. With a rusted creaking noise the doors opened revealing a stone floored room with a broken mostly gone roof exposing the sky above.

Noobzilla thought a moment and looked up to the remaining part of the roof at the far end. "Yeah... I know your up there fatso."

Cautiously Noobzilla proceeded into the room and upon reaching the halfway point a demon a little smaller than the one in the basement landed on the far end of the room with a loud crash baring the doorway.

The demon bellowed a war cry as Noobzilla sprinted across the way and into a red door way, a steel gate dropping down after he passed through. The demon continued to roar as Noobzilla moved down the stairs and rested at the second bonfire and then continued on his way through a hallway beyond. Noobzilla sprinted down the way quickly reaching a room to his left where he picked up a Kite shield. Equipping the shield on his left arm Noobzilla continued down the hallway but quickly felt the impact of two arrows hitting his shield.

[Thunk][Thunk] Looking down the way he saw that their was not one but two hollow archers at the end of the roofless hallway.

"Great. Must be one of the changes made to this version of Dark Souls. Wonder what else has changed," Noobzilla wondered as he continued moving down the hallway, the arrows continuing to hit his shield over and over again. As he neared the hollows they retreated around the corner and as they did Noobzilla smelled a trap. With great caution he approached the corner and spotted a Broadsword at the cusp of the turn.

Equipping the weapon in his right hand Noobzilla peeked around the corner seeing a stairway going up which he took and at the top saw not two but three hollows, the two archers and one with a sword in back. After taking a moment to strategize Noobzilla sprinted up the last part of the stairs at the hollows who quickly took aim at him but their arrows simply bounced off his shield again. With a forceful impact Noobzilla rammed into the left archer hollow and rolled forward landing right in front of the sword hollow who had at that moment raised its sword but Noobzilla was faster as he went from a roll to a thrust attack and stabbed the hollow in the gut, feeling as his blade punctured into the flesh of the hollow and then quickly got around his back and used the hollow as a living... well unliving shield as the other archer hollow fired into the meat shield. After the first arrow hit the sword hollow, Noobzilla stabbed it in the back taking it out just as the first archer hollow stood back up. Noobzilla rushed the two remaining hollows slashing with all his might until the two undead archers few felled.

Noobzilla took a moment to rest up before continuing on through the fog door. Beyond it was a room that was the second floor of the courtyard with the first bonfire. Noobzilla continued onwards taking the path to the right which lead to another staircase leading up. Knowing that it's a trap he cautiously walked up the stairs until the sound of something big and round was heard coming his way. He then jumped off the right side of the stairs just as a giant steel ball sped past, missing it's intended target and continued on its path down the stairs crashing it's way into the stone wall and revealing a new area. Noobzilla picked himself up feeling slightly sore from the fall but unhurt.

"Ok that's out of the way. Eh... if I was a normal human I would have broken something from a fall like that," Noobzilla procrastinated before walking down the stairs and opened a red steel gate that lead back to the first bonfire. Returning up the stairs to the room the rolling boulder opened Noobzilla peared inside seeing a elite knight sitting on a rubble pile.

Approaching the wounded knight Noobzilla called out to him. "Hey you ok."

With a weak glance the knight looked towards Noobzilla. "Oh... your no hollow. Thank goodness. Eh... imdone for i'm afraid. I'll die soon, and with out any humanity or souls, loose my sanity. ...I wish to ask something of you... You and I, were both undead... Hear me out will you?"

"Of course," Noobzilla replied knowing what he'll say.

The knight even under his helmet seemed a bit happy. "Ah... regrettably, I have failed in my mission... But perhaps you can keep the torch lit... There is a old saying in my family... Thou who art undead, art chosen... In thine exodus from the undead asylum, maketh pilgrimage to the land of Ancient lords... When thou ringeth the bell of Awakening, the fate of the undead thou shalt know. Ugh ...Well now you know... And I can die with hope in my heart... Oh one more thing... Here, take this. ...An Estus flask, an undead favourite." The knight handed Noobzilla 5 flasks with a yellow and orange liquid in them. "...Oh and take this..." he said handing over a Undead asylum F2 east key. The knight gave a sigh as he relaxed more on the rock pile he sat on. "...Now I must bid farewell... I would hate to harm you after I loose my mind... I would have said death but... hehe im already undead." the knight said Laughing a little at his own pour joke.

"What's your name?" Noobzilla asked gaining a glance from the knights silver helmet.

"...Oh me... i'm Oscar of Astora. And you what's your name if I may ask."

Noobzilla thought a moment before answering. "Im... Noob of Zillan."

"...Ah a strange name. And I've never heard of the land of Zillan before... Eh must be a country from across the sea... Ah now please Noob of zillan leave before I go hollow..."

Noobzilla bid farewell to Oscar and left returning back to the bonfire below resting a bit before returning to the room Oscar was in to find him hollow. The now hollow Oscar quickly attacked but was deftly dodged by Noobzilla who then got around to Hollow Oscars back and stabbed him in between his armors back segments, and kicked Hollow Oscar down to the floor. Hollow Oscar started to get back up when Noobzilla switched to one handed and wailed on him until the hollow elite knight was know more. After word Noobzilla striped the Elite knight set, Crest Shield and a long sword off of Oscar and put them into his inventory. He then picked Oscar up and brought him down to the bonfire courtyard and buried him.

"Sigh... well that's done with," Noobzilla said as he stood over Oscars grave.

With a respectful bow Noobzilla left and returned up the stairs to where the boulder was rolled at him from and quickly eliminated the two hollows and opened the red steel gate with the Undead Asylum F2 East Key not his master key. He wanted use it for its intended purpose.

Continuing on his way Noobzilla quickly cut his way through the group of hollows in the next area with the fog gate and entered the building to the side where a hollow soldier was waiting. The hollow soldier charged as soon as he saw Noobzilla and thrust with his sword only for the attack to be parried and a blade to be buried into his chest and Kicked off to the ground. The hollow soldier attempted to get back up only for it's head to be loope off by a deft two handed slice. Noobzilla watched as the headless body flopped back to the ground with the dead rolling beside it.

"Heh that's cool. The weapon skill technique's from dark souls 3 are usable here. Figures. This world is meant to be more realistic."

After clearing the hollows out from the upper floor Noobzilla selected Oscars longsword into one of his quick select slots and took a few minutes practising a dual wielding sword style. Thrusting slicing and spinning around along with some jumping attacks. After getting used to two blades Noobzilla returned to the fog door and walked through it, switching both swords to reverse position before stepping to the ledge and gauging his targets position and distance before leaping down and landing right on the face of the Asylum Demon, plunging both his swords into its eyes.

A ear deafening roar erupted from the demon as it grabbed Noobzilla and through him across the room.

"Ugh... ahh... Well that hurt."

With a few new bruises Noobzilla picked himself up and drank some estus before running back to the demon who was rubbing his bloody eyes at the moment, and sliched into it's left kneecap then ran behind the demon as it attacked the spot he was a moment before.

'Huh, using two blades to blind the fatso was a good plan after all,' Noobzilla thought as he continued to slice away at the demon a few more times before backing off and running away then back around the demons back again as it swung it's hammer around trying to hit Noobzilla but found it hard with no eyes so it resorted to blind swings that hit nothing but the air and stone ground as Noobzilla kept to the demons blind... well blinder spot behind it and sliced away cutting through the demons hide until it's spine was pierced. The demon gave a pained roar as it slumped to it's knees and dropped it's giant hammer with a labored breath. Noobzilla took the opportunity and switching back to one blade and climbed the demons back plunging his blade into the base of it's skull. The demon let out a weak pained growl before it fell over with a loud thud as it's face smacked the stone floor.

Noobzilla hopped off of the corpse and took a few breaths of relief as he took the Big pilgrims key from off the demons neck and returned to the bonfire to recoope a little before returning to the door the demon was guarding and unlocked it. Noobzilla pushed the doors open revealing a long raised peninsula of land that was surrounded by empty air instead of water. The land rose upward with some ruins off to the left side just before reaching a cliff edge. Making his way forward Noobzilla walked up the raised ground noting the location of Snuggly who he will be returning to later when he has better stuff to trade. Upon reaching the ruins he took a look around and found a soul of a lost undead before continuing on to the cliff edge were Psyon was waiting well floating over the cliff.

"Enjoy yourself?" the inhuman being asked with a tone of curiosity in it's voice.

"Yep. But uh shouldn't you already know that?" Noobzilla chirped back.

Psyon shrugged. "I don't use those abilities unless it's necessary. Otherwise things get boring. So I just watch with my eyes like a normal person."

Noobzilla gave a small laugh at that. "Hehe. Define normal."

Psyon shrugged with a sigh. "Good point. Your not exactly a normal person your self. Which is partly why I decided to meet you in person in the first place."

Noobzilla put a hand to his chin thinking. "About that. If you are the one who created Ellen's universe how did you get date from the Prime universe?"

Psyon glanched up a moment as if remembering he had forgot something. "Oh that. Well you see beings like myself can spread ourselves out across many universes and multiverses like a massive field and we can exist in the blank between them."

Noobzilla gave a sigh. "So my theory concerning that is also correct. A blank void without time without space or matter or energy."

Psyon nodded with a pleased smile. "Yes. The fact you had such a theory concerning the Blank is, in of itself a accomplishment considering that it's normally a anathema to most self aware beings minds. To even consider let alone accept such a place even exists is like facing your most horrible nightmare and most primal fears of being nothing, of your life and everything you did and attempted to accomplish mean absolutely nothing and will end in nothingness the kind of nothingness that even time, space and the universes themselves reject. Its not the normal kind of place a living being, even those whom could be considered gods and those beyond gods and even others like them would like to even acknowledge the existence of, let alone accept is real."

Noobzilla shifted his feet as he took in all of that. "So its kind of like Cthulhu times a million then?"

Psyon tilted his head with a raised eyebrow. "A close assessment. But Cthulhu and beings from his reality drive mortals insane from excessive information entering their minds. The godly beings of the Cthulhu universe are able to express their whole being in the psyche energy they release that normal minds can't handle. It's like downloading too much information into a computer."

Noobzilla gave a thoughtful nod. "Oh so the information overload crashes their brains. A better explanation then the plasma thing."

"Agreed. But in the case of the Blank it's the lack of information that scares people. Most can't handle the fact that their dreams, existence and everything they've ever done or will do are ALL without meaning in the blank. Even their concept of reality is meaningless."

Noobzilla gave a tiny chuckle. "And yet it's the Blank in which the Fractal-verse sets in, or around depending how one looks at it. Also. While were talking about it Is there a correlation between the quantum scale of reality and the Blank?"

Psyon looked impressed for moment, raising both his eyes brows. "Yes. Most don't consider it a dimension but size scaling is in fact a type of fractal dimension like time and space, or up down and side to side, in that it's a way of measuring differences between two or more objects in a continuing scale or place in space that just goes higher and lower in scale. The quantum level below the subatomic is the absolute limit and boundary between existence and the Blank."

"Interesting. So moving on. I have something to say to my readers. "Noobzilla said as he turned to the camera. "If any of you reading figured the Spartans 1s will be fighting Zerg by the end of the current sub arc then your right. It's been something of a running theme of my story that there's some story telling with some minor battles followed by a major battle that climax's the sub arc. That's also kind of the overall structure of the story in general. Instead of having my characters just fight progressingly stronger enemies I kind of reset the stage and do things over again with different characters in different places.

However all the main characters and plots will start converging together for the main story at around the start of StarCraft 1. Also im doing these story sub arcs between arc1 and the start of Starcraft because I didn't want to just jump from the end of arc 1 to the start of StarCraft and ignore everything that could happened in between and just reference it.

Also the next two sub arcs after [Rise of the spartans] will be much more um... combat heavy. Like mostly just a massive war. In previous battles Ellen has had her swarm pull their punches against the humans of Earth and on Reach but, by the end of the [Rise of the Spartans] arc they will be fighting on more even ground, and directly after a [unexpected enemy] will be attacking the capital of Ellen's swarm that will, for the first time in the story push Ellen and her swarm to their limit. I've been wanting to do this for a while now because we've never seen what Ellen and her swarm is fully capable of since Ellen hasn't used the full power of her swarm before, so in the next arc every unit in her swarm will have a time in the light of glorious combat.

And as for the arc after that we'll be going back in time to see what happened to Cerebrate Zasz and the Protoss empire's world of A'rule when the Great War started OH! and Tassadar and Fenix will be making a appearance then too AND yes they will be fighting the Overminds swarm. Their WILL be giant #$%& off battle's I guarantee you that.

Also I for the life of me I can't figure out the name of my OC warp god of 'Pride' who will be Ellens main antagonist enemy. The Fractal-verse is weird. Sooo if anyone wants to throw a few ideas my way PM (Private message) me. I already got One proposal from [PEJP BengtZone V2] but i've not fully decided on it just 'yet' so if anyone else wants to pitch me a idea or two for the 'name' please do so.

And if any of you have any other ideas for my story send them my way too. I could always use more ideas or critic to help improve the story. But please be civil as I would like to keep any discourse between me and you polite.

Noobzilla turned back to Psyon.

"Just asking but Is that big crow going to show up and haul me off to Firelink shrine?"

Psyon gave a mischievous smile as he snapped his finger's. A moment later a giant crow swooped down and picked Noobzilla up in its claws carrying him off to the land of lordan.

In the land of Lordran firelink shrine was a beacon, a haven of rest for those weary of the mindless hollows roaming the land. And currently the destination of a giant crow holding Noobzilla in its claws. A crestfallen knight resting at the shrine watched as the fires of the bonfire crackled and snapped. The warm glow warming the area as he noticed the sound of flapping wings up above. Looking up the knight saw the giant raven swooping down to the shrine, dropping off a armored knight who proceeded to roll across the area until slamming into the tree landing upside down legs hanging above himself like in a cartoon.

"Aaahh! that's not how I remember the landing ugh going."

Noobzilla slumped to the ground and stood back up dusting himself off as he meet the studious eyes of the man to his left watched him.

"Well, what do we have here? a new arrival," the crestfallen knight said. "Let me guess. Fate of the Undead, right? Well, you're not the first."

"Yeah no shit sherlock," Noobzilla replied as he looked up at the giant crow resting atop the ruins. "Does that thing always give such hard landing?"

"Hmm not that rough if I recall correctly. Never seen someone go rolling like that before hehe."

Noobzilla turned to the crestfallen knight and sighed. "Welp may as well ring those bells. And yes I know about them so don't waste your breath."

"Hehehe wouldn't dream of it. Now off you go. Do find a nice spot to go hollow in fare from here."

Noobzilla stared at the knight a moment. "Thanks."

Noobzilla proceeded to wander around the area collecting a few lost souls of undead a bit of humanity and five fire bombs along with 4 Cracked Red Eye Orbs a Morning Star mace, 1 Talisman, and a Homeward Bone. None of which very useful.

Noobzilla looked down at the graveyard where the freaking skeletons were roaming about.

"Sigh. Welp here goes nothing."

Noobzilla proceeded to jump down to the graveyard and run around like a mad man avoiding the skeletons while collecting a few more undead souls and a winged spear all while avoiding the damn bone heads as best as he could as they tried to corner and swarm him.

*Gasping* "Ah %*$# you guys," Noobzilla yelled as he ran into the ruins where the skeletons ended their chase.

*Deep breath* "Ah those guys are even worse then I remember. I'm going to need a blessed weapon or whatever there called before I go back that way again."

Taking a swig of estus Noobzilla continued on his way up to the undead burg area fighting off the two hollows on a small area while avoiding the fire bombs being thrown at him from above. Onch the two were dealt with a third hollow with a shield and longsword ran at him from the rearmost spot near the lower part of the stone aqueduct. As the hollow charged it raise it's sword and swung only to be parried by a deft shield swing by Noobzilla who impaled the hollow and kicked it off his sword before jumping back barely avoiding another fire bomb from above as it landed on the downed hollow causing it to catch fire and turn into a burning hollow.

"Oh! THAT! is not right!" Noobzilla exclaimed wide eyed as the burning hollow stood up and started screaming a blood curdling cry with its eyes and mouth afire and started madly swinging its sword at nearly twice as fast as before.

"Not $#%&ing* right at all!" Noobzilla exclaimed as he ran back down to the stairs to firelink to catch a breath and think. Unfortunately the burning hollow chased him down the stairs and to the clearing at their base.

"What hell!? he's following me," Noobzilla complained as he blocked the frenzied hollows attack's as best he could. The heat of its flames barely tolerable at such close range. Another strike and Noobzilla made a countered kicking the burning hollow away a bit then quick switching to the winged spear, impaling the hollow and pushed it off the cliff.

"Ah hoo that was tough. Note to self never left a fire bomb hit a hollow. Don't know if that happens to all of them or if it's a special case for certain ones?"

After taking a minute to rest Noobzilla continued up to the undead burg fighting his way through the rest of the hollows and the giant ass rats in the aqueduct before arriving at a small flat open area with two hollows. One with a axe in back and the other holding a sword and shield in front.

The first hollow charged and was parried easly by Noobzilla who then roundhouse kicked the undead to the ground and jumped on top of it before bringing his sword to its neck beheading the hollow in one stroke that also scraped the blade against the stone ground.

"Shit!" Noobzilla exclaimed seeing the blade was dulled.

Before he could do anything else the second hollow attacked forcing him into a defensive stance as each heavy axe blow forced Noobzilla back as he two handed the shield. Eventually he backed up all the way to the stone wall and had nowhere to go. The hollow raised it's axe for another strike when it's intended target side stepped avoiding the axe as it smashed into the stone wall. Taking the oppertinitey Noobzilla quick selected his long sword and back stabbed the hollow and kicked it off on to the wall and slashed it's back a few times finishing it off.

"Damn going to have to watch where I aim at," Noobzilla berated himself over the damaged blade before proceeding to smash through the barrels and drop down to the lower area that lead to a much larger area than in the original game. It had four upper and lower levels all filled with hollows. The close quarters was a pain but not unworkable as the tight areas also kept the hollows from surrounding him. After a bit of trouble Noobzilla returned to the first area in the undead burg and proceeded to enter the fog gate and went up the stairs through the house up to the bridge above where the giant drake was supposed to land and fly off again but it didn't happen.

Instead what Noobzilla got was four shield and spear hollows in a roman style phalanx formation two in front and another two behind them.

"Oh shit this is trouble."

It was a understatement as the phalanx formation of hollows was a tough nut to crack but at least there were only four of them. With their shields raised and spears aimed at the unhollow the undead soldiers charged.

Thinking fast Noobzilla instead of bringing his shield up switched to his two swords and parried the first spear away as he rolled into the blind spot right at the hollows feet and swung his sword cleanly slicing through the hollows ankles and dropping the two.

Moving fast Noobzilla killed the two disabled hollows and Repeated the tactic quickly killing the other two hollows and proceeding on his way up a short stairway up to a more open area where four hollows were waiting behind wooden barricades along with two more armed with crossbows on a small buildings roof overlooking the area.

Two of the hollows charged weapons raised. Side stepping Noobzilla dodged one as it passed and bashed it's head with the tip of his shield dropping the hollow in one blow. The other attacked only for its prey to back out of range just before the attack landed. Noobzilla brought up his shield to block a pair of crossbow bolts before turning his attention back to the hollow in front of him, parrying another sword swing he impaled the hollow and this time instead of pushing it off his sword he quick selected his second sword and beheaded the hollow. A moment later the first hollow was back up and swinging, it's blade bounched off Noobzillas shield and he took the opportunity to slice at the hollows exposed legs stunning it long enough to behead it, which is quickly becoming the go to way of one shotting the undead hollows.

Noobzilla brought his shield up again just in time to block another bolt attack from the hollows on top the building. A moment later another pair of hollows ran out from their cover and attacked only to be defeated again by Noobzilla who was more than a little tired of the two crossbow shooting hollows at this point.

Now that the way was clear Noobzilla ran up the set of stairs to the rooftop and shield bashed one of the annoying hollows before roundhouse kicking it over the crenellation and down to its doom. The other hollow was dealt with just as quickly. Finally in the clear for the moment he walked into a nearby building and lite the bonfire and rested a moment, after word Noobzilla exited the building to once again find the same enemies in the same place as before confirming that the enemies respawn after resting at a bonfire just like the game.

"Hmm well may as well do some grinding."

Noobzilla proceeded to clear the area again and again collecting souls which was the currency of this world and a valuable resource to level up and upgrade and forge weapons and armor.

{-ONE-WEEK-LATER-}

"...*snoring*...Ugh! uh ahh *yawn* oh man how long have I been sleeping," Noobzilla asked no-one in particular as he woke up from his nap next to the bonfire. Stretching a bit Noobzilla got up and looked at his souls counter which was now in the tens of thousands.

Deciding it was time to move on, he left the bonfire and once again cleared the area of enemies before going into the nearby building and down to the undead merchant to buy some things before using the remaining souls to level up.

"Well now... you seem to have your whits about you, hmm? Then you are a welcome customer. I trade in souls. Everything's for sell, heheheh. Just don't be going hollow on me yeah hear. I'm no slouch and i'll be damned if i'm going to lose my souls."

"Understood. Now what's you got?"

Noobzilla went through the selection of items buying a Short Bow and lot's of arrows along with a Repairbox, Firebombs, and some Throwing Knife's.

"Thank you kindly. Nee hee hee hee!"

After returning to the bonfire Noobzilla leveled up a using nearly all of his souls and almost doubling all of his stats but focusing on more Vitality, Endurance, and Strength then the other's and ignoring the Faith state altogether for the moment. Moving on Noobzilla next used the short bow to eliminate the hollows throwing fire bombs on a nearby rooftop from the local bonfire and then aggroing the enemies in the next building over and got two hollows to come out which made them easy to pick off along with the one remaining inside. Moving on Noobzilla eliminated all the hollows in the area before moving on to a building and through it to get some golden pine resin in a chest overlooking a walkway connected to a stair way all of which was far larger than what he remembered.

After taking out that annoying sniper in the small tower next up was the hollows in the walkway, aggroing them with the short bow and taking them out one at a time was easy enough, and next was getting past that fire barrel rolling down the stairs and the hollow who pushed it then into the tower.

Noobzilla stood in the room at the base of the large tower looking at the door that lead to Havel the Rock and the shortcut to darkroot garden and the valley of drakes.

"Soon Havel soon, i'll deal with you and get to my little grinding area... or die horribly?" Noobzilla contemplated before looking up the stairs. "But first i'm going to deal with the Taurus Demon up stairs... and meet Solaire."

Undead burg

Solaire of Astora stood at the great balcony overlooking the city below. The mist and fog nearly covering it completely. As the sun obsessed knight watched the blazing orb in the sky Noobzilla approached from behind sighing. "*sigh* Yo high there."

"Oh! um hello. You don't look hollow. I am Solaire of Astora, an adherent to the Lord of Sunlight.

"What you doing," Like Noobzilla didn't know already but he needs to keep up appearances.

"Well now that I am Undead, I have come to this great land, the birthplace of Lord Gwyn, to seek my very own sun! Do you find that strange? Well you should."

"No. Not really. Everyone has their own dream to fulfill or obtain."

Solaire was taken aback by this little revelation of wisdom."Oh really. You seem quit wise to say such a thing."

"Thanks... and as for your little sun quest I may be able to help with that."

Solaire crossed his arms. "Really. Hahaha thank you. Than the way I see it, our fates appear to be intertwined. In a land brimming with Hollows, could that really be mere chance? What do you say? Why not help one another on this lonely journey?"

Like Noobzilla even needed to think it over. "Ok yeah. Jolly cooperation then"

"Hahaha. A word of advice. We are amidst strange beings, in a strange land. The flow of time itself is convoluted; with heroes centuries old phasing in and out. The very fabric wavers, and relations shift and obscure. There's no telling how much longer your world and mine will remain in contact. But, use this, to summon one another as spirits, cross the gaps between the worlds, and engage in as you say, jolly! co-operation!"

Solair handed over a White Sign Soapstone.

Noobzilla took the stone and placed it in his inventory. "Thanks. Hope we can meet again. And I'll work on that sun?! thing for you."

"I would so appreciate it. If only I could be so grossly incandescent as the sun!... um I didn't get your name my good sir?"

"Noob of zilla. From across the sea far to the east."

"Ah, then Noob of zilla I await your summon one day. Good luck to the both of us in our endeavors."

Noobzilla left the sunlit knight and continued on his way across the bridge running like a mad man while dodge rolling away from the Drakes fireballs, and reaching the right alcove and stairs that lead to the ladder short cut to the undead burg bonfire. After recoping Noobzilla cleared the far undead burg area again and attacked the black knight in a lower area.

"Woe shit," Noobzilla yelled as he nearly got split in half by the seven foot tall knight and his giant sword.

Attacking the black knight hacked and slashed at the little fool who disturbs his rest. But the little one was swift and clever so the knight took a defensive stance ready to counter attack should the fool attack.

Taking the opportunity Noobzilla switched to his short bow and shoot the black knight in the foot were his armor was weakest.

"Grrr, Ahhh!" the black knight roared as he charged bringing his sword down on the infuriating fool only for Noobzilla to twist out of the way just as the blade fell and stabbed the black knight in the back. "Ahhhh!" the black knight swung horizontally 360 degrees but again Noobzilla dodged rolled away just nearly avoiding the blade. The black knight went on the offensive slashing and swinging his great sword whom the knight had used many times to lay waste to the enemies of his lord Gwyn. But this little one is quit evasive so the black knight switched to one handing his sword and focusing on keeping the little one on his toes as he dodged out of the way time after time but the black knight was now always keen on keeping his opponent in front and not letting him get behind him again.

"Damn your different from the hollows aren't ya," Noobzilla quipped as he again rolled away from a low swing.

Thinking his options through Noobzilla decided to use his fire bombs. Quick selecting them he two handed double fire bombs and throw them at the black knights feet where his shield won't protect him. The black knight screamed and roared as the fire and flames stuck to his armor and burned but it caused a change in him a change that blazed in his soul and the black knight started burning with a inner fire as his armor glowed and caught fire his blade glowing orange. "Araaahhh!"

Noobzilla stood there arms hanging down eyes blank as the black knight turned into a burning black knight with fiery eyes. "Oh! *uck me not again!."

The burning black knight cast off his shield swinging his glowing sword at the fool his blade producing a blaze of flame with every swing that seared the skin of his enemies.

"Shit! shit! shit!."

Desperately Noobzilla dodged the high-speed attacks that were not only faster but now created a wave of burning hot flame with every swing. The burning black knight took a stance and pointed his burning blade at his enemy and thrust shooting a beam of flame at him. The flame beam hit Noobzillas shield sending him flying backwards and into the crenellations of the overlook.

"Owww!... I'll feel that in the morning," Noobzilla said as he took a swig of his estus.

A moment later the burning black knight charged, blade lowered to impale. His blade pierced into the stone crenellations melting the stone from the heat. There was a moment of silence as the two opponents looked each other in the eyes one dead the other alive.

"*uck... you."

Noobzilla declared as he pulled both his blades out of the abdomen of the burning black knight and quickly stabbed down into the gap between his helmet and body armor severing nerve and muscle and stabbing with his broad sword over and over again until the burning black knight was no more. The burning black knight slumped down now lifeless as his body turning to ash in his still blazing armor, Noobzilla looked down to his wound. The burning blade of the black knight still impaled in the stone wall was cutting four inch's into his waist and burned like a *other *ucker.

"OW! OW! OW!" Noobzilla cried as he pulled himself away of the blades fiery edge and took two swig's of estus. "*SIGH* THAT almost killed me... damn. Ha! sweet sword."

With a pained groan Noobzilla pulled the burning black knight sword from the stone crenellations and placed it in his deep inventory along with the burning black knight armor and shield after shaking the ash out of it. Checking the states they were even better then the original with the blades fire attack and the armor and shields fire defense double what the originals were if Noobzillas remembers correctly.

"This will be great for taking on that Drake on the bridge. Buuut there all too heavy for me to use at the moment."

Noobzilla sighed at that little fact as he resolved to grind at the darkroot garden until he could use; The burning Black Knight armor, shield and sword set.

Returning to the local undead burg bonfire Noobzilla recovered his lost estus and continued on his way to the tower with the shortcut to the dark root basin. Getting past Havel the rock was a pain.

Havel swings his dragons tooth great hammer smashing through the wood floor just as Noobzilla dodges away and opens the door with his master key running away like a sissy into darkroot basin.

Getting past the second black knight on the zig zagging ramps of the cliff side was a pain times ten but Noobzilla managed to lead the black knight down of the cliffs and to a flat area to deal with him. Noobzilla took some hits using up two estus drinks but came out on top and after word hit the cave and the bone fire within before collecting the Grass Crest Shield.

After that Noobzilla got past the Hydra, The Hydra shoots nine hydro bolts at Noobzilla as he runs for his life again like a little sissy and climbed up to the upper darkroot garden where he found the area to be far larger than in the game as the dark forest seemed to stretch on for a few miles at least.

"Damn I hope the high souls dropping enemies in the area are still in the same places as the game otherwise i'm shit out of luck. I don't want to have to fight them more then one at a time."

Taking in a deep breath Noobzilla proceeded to make his way through the forest sometimes fighting off the Demonic Foliage (also called Ents) that make the forest their home. They only pose a threat in large numbers but otherwise their just walking shrubs with a annoying grab attack. After a one hour walk Noobzilla arrived at the stone steps and large stone door that would normally be opened from the other side and could only be opened from the other side. However this was more real life then a game so climbing the near by hill was a easy bypass. Now on the other side of the stone doors Noobzilla's next task was simple reveal the illusory wall, rest at the cliff side bonfire and start grinding.

{One-Month-Later}

"And done," Noobzilla chirped as he leveled up with all the souls he had farmed and grinded for repetitively for a whole month nonstop every day which was a thing now as the world now had a day and night cycle instead of each area having its own time of day and it's not like the whole thing was boring or anything Noobzilla was very focused on leveling up and getting stronger so he could SlAUGHTER that Drake hahahaha!.

All stats were at 50 now which made Noobzilla basically as powerful as a end game boss at this point but he had a sneaking suspicion that the changes to the dark souls world would be even more, eh hem, extreme later on so he wanted any advantage he could get. Especially against the four great lords who hold the four lord souls. Plus in the near future Noobzilla wanted to learn magic, all the magic.

Undead Parish roof doorway access

*Summoning noise* With a glowing aura and golden form Solaire of Astora manifested in Noobzillas world.

Solar took stock of his current surroundings and quickly noticed Noobzilla.

"Oh hello Is... that you Noob of Zilla?!"

Camera pans left to show Noobzilla in his Burning black knight armor set wilding a black knight greatsword glowing with a inner heat covered in blood which was slowly being evaporated into steam. The blood Sizzled as it was slowly vaporized by the armors inner fire which didn't harm it's wearer any.

"Yep it's me. Just uh... you know... been slaying giant red Drakes and stuff."

Solaire stood there a moment taking in the fact his companion had slayed a real Drake.

"Ah. So that's where the blood came from," Said Solaire.

"Yep. Got the things body parts too. Plan on making a drake armor and weapons set when I find a blacksmith," Noobzilla said as he pulled the Drakes head out of his Inventory plopping it down beside him selfe.

"Mmm," Solaire was impressed at the accomplishment of his friend." Your quit the consumente warrior. I'm impressed. Now what did you call me for. Surely a few hollows aren't trouble for you."

"Just fulfilling a promise to summon you should I have need and a little companionship isn't bad in a fight."

"Ah I see, yes. Well shall we."

Both Solaire and Noobzilla passed through the fog gate and onto the Parish rooftop. Suddenly there was a ear piercing roar followed by the flapping of wings. The Giant Gargoyle landed on the roof and roared again as it stared at the two invading it's territory.

"I'll get up close attack directly you hit it at range from behind." Noobzilla said as he charged forward.

Solaire watched as his companion ran at the larger beast. Feeling a little jealous at his bravery or stupidity... doesn't really matter which one. Solaire watched as the Gargoyle sweeped its halberd across the ground only for Noobzilla to leap up over it and plant a foot on the Creatures face before dropping down and cleaving the tail from its body in one stroke.

Impressed again Solaire shook his head. "Huh hes light on his feet for wearing such heavy armor." Finishing his thoughts Solaire shot a few Lightning Spears at the Gargoyle hitting it right in the back after it had turned around to attack the one who took it's tail.

*Yoink* "Mine now stone breath," Noobzilla taunted as he put the Gargoyle's tail in his inventory.

A moment later the Gargoyle was stunned by lightning spears hitting its back.

"Nice one Solaire but now it's my turn again."

Noobzilla brought out his new Black Knight weapon the Black knight Ultra-greatsword and shouldered it bending his knees. The laws of physics still applied and the sword was heavy enough to pull Noobzilla around so the weapon had to be handled in a particular way otherwise it's useless in combat.

Noobzilla turned to the side with his heavy weapon in both hands blocking a full power strike from the Gargoyles halberd. *CLANG!* The two weapons created a shower of sparks as they collided. Both Noobzilla and the Gargoyle shifted their legs and body repositioning to land the next strike. *CLANG!* the two weapons rebounded off eachother again as Solaire struck again with a second and third lightning spears into the Gargoyles back.

*CLANG!* The gargoyle and Noobzillas weapons struk again repulsing each other but it was the Gargoyle still taking damage from the third member of the fight behind him. *CLANG!*CLANG!*CLANG!*CLANG!* The battle dragged on for a few minutes as the Gargoyle tried moving around only to get countered by Noobzilla keeping himself in front of the beast and Solaire behind.

*Struss ZAP ZAP ZAP.* Struck again by the lightning spears of Solaire the Bell Gargoyle had reached its limit and called on it's fellows. "*ROOOAAARRR!*"

"Oh shit here comes the other one," Noobzilla said as MORE THEN ONE Gargoyle took flight from the tower and landed on the roof top six in total. *TICK TICK TICK DING* "Oh come on!"

With a exclamation of rage Noobzilla put back his ultra greatsword and swapped in the burning black knight sword. "AHHHH!" *slash* in one two handed strike Noobzilla beheaded one of the lesser Gargoyles that had their back turned to him. *THWOMP* As the body of the Gargoyle fell its fellows attacked. Both Solaire and Noobzilla were pushed to the limit of their evasive abilities as they dodged and rolled out of the way of as many strikes as they could but the withering attacks were taking their toll.

Then one of the Gargoyles got a lucky hit in sending Noobzilla flying back into the wall of the Parish roof. Solaire approached sword and shield at the ready to defend his companion. "You ok?"

"Yeah," *Estus swig*Estus swig* "Im ok... let's finish this," Standing back up Noobzilla took sock of the situation. Five Gargoyles and two of them on the roof. "Hmm Solaire I got a plan but your not going to like it."

"What is it?" the sun lit knight asked but their conversation was interrupted by the Gargoyles.

"ROOOAAARRR" The Gargoyles all lined up and raised their heads flame bellowing from their mouths as they raised their heads in preparation for a flame attack.

"No time!" Noobzilla yelled as he dropped his sword and grabbed Solaire by the body armor spinning around twice before throwing him up into the air just as the five Gargoyles spewed a wall of fire.

Solaire yelled as he flew through the air and landed hard on the other side of the roof. Picking himself up and recovering from the landing Solaire shook his head and looked back at the five Gargoyles still spewing fire on Noobzilla. Concern for his friend growing in his heart as the fire stopped and the Five Gargoyles expected to see a burned corpse but what they found was Noobzilla still standing knees bent and arms crossed over his face.

"Aaah... that hurt... a lot. He luckly this armor has great fire defense" Noobzilla then unfolded his arms picked up his sword and ran at the Gargoyles jumping high into the air once again. The first Gargoyle remembering the last time swung his Halberd at the airborne Noobzilla only for him to quick select the black knight Ultra-greatsword and this time it had gravity going for it. *Clang!*Snap*Slash*

In one move Noobzilla split the Gargoyle's halberd in half as the super heavy blade came down, the arrow shaped tip nearly splitting the Gargoyles torso in half down the right side.

Solaire was again impressed but quickly recovered and focused sending more of his lightning spears at the remaining Gargoyles. With more Lightning spears striking their backs and their leader dead the Remaining Gargoyles were easily finished off. After word Solaire and Noobzilla shared a hand shake before the sunlit warrior returned to his world.

Noobzilla rang the bell and as he was coming back down the tower when he encountered Oswald of Carim who had his arms out like a weirdo. Noobzilla listened to his spiel and bought a Velka's Talisman and the Poison and Bleed bite Rings.

Continuing on his way to the next area that would have been his normal route to the Darkroot garden, Noobzilla finally met with Andre of Astora.

*Clank*Clank*Clank*faint noises of metal striking metal echoed through the old church as Noobzilla descended the stairs to the bonfire. *Clank*Clank*Clank*Clank* After lighting the bonfire Noobzilla continued down the stairs as the sounds of weapon smithing got louder and louder until Noobzilla had at last reached the rather small smithing shop at the bottom of the building.

The well muscled blacksmith stopped his hammering as he felt the presence of someone coming down the stairs. "Well you must be a new arrival. I'm Andra, of Astora. If you require smithing, then just tell me."

"Glad to meet you Andra im Noob of Zilla." Noobzilla had all his current gear and weapons upgraded to +5 with the metric F-ing ton of Titanite he had collected from all the grinding. With the exception of his Burning Black knight armor (which he was wearing) and weapons set as they require Twinkling Titanite which is rare and not something Noobzilla has enough of at the moment if he wanted to upgrade the whole set.

Noobzilla decided to Take the opportunity for some down time and headed to the gated entrench of Sen's fortress meeting with the onion knight Siegmeyer of Catarina who was of course sleeping at the closed gate. Noobzilla a woke the oddly armored man and had a friendly chat for half a hour before leaving.

Noobzilla then traveled to the bottom of the Old church and fought the Titanite demon.

As he approached, the stone creature swung it's weapon down at Noobzilla only for it to be blocked by the black knight sword and parried to the side as Noobzilla slipped in close and slashed upwards at the stone creatures right shoulder joint weakening its arm with a few cracks. The Headless stone beast then sweeped its tail around batting Noobzilla away. Recovering he rolled out of the way as the Titanite demon brought it's pole weapons pointed tip down splitting the stone floor. Noobzilla ran around the beast throwing Fire bombs as a distraction as he got around to the back where he switched to the black knight Ultra-greatsword and cut a large gouge into the living stone creatures back cracking its body. The Titanite demon shuddered in pain as Noobzilla raised the oversized sword again and brought in down fully shattering the beast into hundreds of pieces some of which were Titanite slabs, dozens of Titanite chunks and many many Titanite shards which Noobzilla happly collected.

Well it was called the Titanite demon sooo made of Titanite?!

After defeating the Titanite demon Noobzilla made his way to Havel the Rock.

The battle with him was a long one as he had stupidly heavy armor and a equally stupid over sized Dragon tooth hammer. The only weapon Noobzilla had that could match Havel's was the black knight Ultra-greatsword and being smart he knew he didn't have any armor that could protect him from a hit from that giant dragons tooth hammer so he just striped down to his bar undergarment's making him far lighter a little faster and giving him room to breath.

Noobzilla approached the heavily armored warrior and the two attacked each other with their oversized weapons. *Clang* the two giant weapons bounced off each other as their willders struggled to recover faster than the other. Noobzilla bent his knees lowering his center of gravity before swinging his sword again and again. Each time the two perfectly countered the other in a shower of sparks but their stamina was waning with each strike. *Clang*clang*clang*clang* The end of the battle was at hand as both Havel and Noobzilla had reached their limits as both raised their weapons for one last strike. The giant one ton Dragons tooth came down smashing through the floorboards as Noobzilla at the last second twisted out of the way and spun around bringing the ultra-greatsword up and then swung down cutting off Havels arms at the elbow joints. Stunned Havel backed up staring at his arm stumps and then turned to Noobzilla who had raised his sword again one final time and brought it down. *Crunch*

After the fight Noobzilla to a hour to rest before collecting his spoils and returning to Andre.

After a few days of waiting all the improvements were done. Noobzilla thanked Andra payed the man his souls and continued on his way. His next destination the lower undead burg. Unlocking the locked door with the key he got from the Parish Noobzilla made his way down to the lower area fighting through the annoying skinless dogs and hollows until coming across cries for help.

"Somebody!, please let me out of here! Anybody please help! I'm trapped in here! Hello hello! I've been in here for... for... uh days! OH! by Lord Gwyn's beard I don't want to die here!"

Noobzilla listened to the sad sad cries for help for about a minute before they got old and he unlocked the door. "Oh! thank you thank you. Im saved. I thought I might not ever escape. I am Griggs of Vinheim. A sorcerer of the school. I am much obliged for your assistance. Thanks to you i'm able to resume my travels. But the first place I must go to is Firelink shrine. If you ever want to learn magic I'll be more then willing to teach you and sell some of my wear's, dor a price of course. I must be going now I can't stand another moment in here Oh but I'm being rude. What's your name?"

"Im Noob of Zilla from across the sea."

"Hmm pleased to meet you Noob. Ha it's quite a odd name. But i'm not judging. Any way I must be going now. Thank you again Noob of Zilla."

"I have one question Griggs. If your a sorcerer why didn't you just use magic to, I don't know destroy the door?!."

Meanwhile at Firelink shrine the crestfallen knight was relaxing like he always does when he heard a faint cry coming from the undead burg.

Back with Noobzilla Griggs was on his knees crying like a four year old who's candy had been stolen. "I'm... just going to go now... by."

Noobzilla left the sad scene and continued on his way. Moving through the Lower undead burg was troublesome as the hollow thieves kept coming out of the woodworks. Five would be cut down and ten more would appear and throw knives and fire bombs. Noobzilla had to use two drinks of estus and cut through twenty of them before they stopped coming.

After that Noobzilla stood at the fog door to the damn Capra demon and his dogs. But Noobzilla had a trick up his sleeve... throwing fire bombs over the arch way into the small area the demon and his mutts are in, lots and lots of fire bombs.

After about a hundred fire bombs Noobzilla felt the souls from the boss and his dogs enter him just as the fog gate dissipated revealing a blazing inferno in the small area that has spelled the death of many a player. *Whistling* Happily Noobzilla picked up the key to the depths off the burning corpse of the Capra demon and moved on.

Having used the key Noobzilla entered the depths. The dark and smelly underground counterpart to the Undead burg. Through the shadowed corridors Noobzilla slayed the weak hollows with ease, After leveling up the weaker hollows are no threat what-so-ever. Not even that Butcher hollow. Noobzilla walked down a set of stairs as the smell of cooking meat and the sound of chopping echoed through the dark halls. As he moved closer the sight of a oversized hollow in a cooks outfit came into view. Noobzilla also noticed the other hollows standing around the area as if guarding the cook. "LEEROOOOY JENNKINSSSS."

Meanwhile in a lower area the Pyromancer named Laurentius of the Great Swamp who was stuffed in a wood barrel waited for his inevitable end. The thought of being eaten alive terrified him, his hands were shaking and he couldn't stop sweating. *Thump* Suddenly there was a foot step in the hallway outside his room,*Thump* then another *Thump* and another *Thump* and another. Laurentius started panicking as he knew it was his end. He didn't want to die, not yet. The door to the room opened and a huge hulking figure entered. Laurentius knew it was the butcher by the smell of dried blood and meat on her clothes. *Thump*Thump*Thump*The figure walked closer lowering the giant butchers knife as it walked closer making a frightening *Scraping noise* that echoed through the dark room as Laurentius closed his eyes.

"HE HE HE. Meat, meat good to eat." said the butcher in a deep voice.

Laurentius shook in the barrel but keeping his pride as a pyromancer he didn't cry like a baby or pled he accepted his fate with grace. The butcher stopped in front of him and just staired. Laurentius opened his eyes for a moment catching sight of the white blood stained apron before closing his eyes again. The Butcher raised the giant knife and held it in both hands before bringing it down. *Chop*

In the next moment Laurentius felt the barrel fall away and he was free. Free to fall on his ass as he nearly soiled himself. "Ah uh what?!" The man clearly confused and frightened just stared up at the butcher who started laughing his ass off. "AH! HAHAHA, AH! HAHAHA, AH HAHAHA!. Sorry sorry... *gasp* but I just couldn't help myself ah hahaha. That look on your face was priceless ah,hahaha."

Laurentius sat their as he watched the man laugh his ass off for a few minutes.

After the near death experience Laurentius punched Noobzilla in the face knocking him down. The pyromancers hand was injured a bit from hitting the Burning black knight helmet but it was worth it.

"HEHE sorry man like I said I couldn't help it, it was just too good a opportunity to pass up. And the look on your face hehe,"

Laurentius sighed as on one hand he was free and on the other it was at the cost of a few years of his life. At least that would be the case if he wasn't undead but maybe he would just go hollow a little quicker. "Thanks for saving me... I guess."

Having finally stopped giggling like a schoolgirl Noobzilla turned to Laurentius. "Yeah your welcome... sorry again ha. Anyway your a pyromancer right."

"Yes." Laurentius replied as he crossed his arms still a little salty over his near death experience.

"Well maybe later when were both at firelink shrine you can teach me some of that magic of yours... you know for saving your life and all."

Laurentius sighed again looking down then up again. "Yes sure. I owe you. I would have been supper without you. Even if you were a asshole! about it."

"Ok. Ok I get it you hate me. Let's met up at Firelink shrine later on. I got some business further below so may take a while."

Laurentius uncrossed his arms. "You crazy. There are nastier monsters further below?!"

"I can handle it. I already slew a giant Drake and a bunch of Gargoyles. And I already have a good idea of what's down there."

"*Sigh* Fine it's your funeral. Just don't die I still have to repay you. Anyway, I'm heading back to firelink now... good luck."

"Bye."

Having said their farewells for now the two parted one going up the other going further down.

Fighting his way through the the depth Noobzilla encountered the second butcher, sewer rats that giant sewer rat, slimes and those stupid looking googly eyed Basilisks and more hollows before he finally encountered the red phantom Knight Kirk.

The black spike armored knight attacked Noobzilla only for his armor to take the hit with ease. Noobzilla ended the fight with one leaping strike of his black knight greatsword splitting Kirk in half, shame about the armor. Collecting the damaged armor Noobzilla continued onwards finally finding Domhnall of Zena. The odd merchant had set up shop in the depths right by the locked gate leading to Blight town.

"Aye, siwmae. And good day to you. I'm Domhnall of Zena. Imjust, well, a peddler of sorts. I adore trinkets and oddities, so I trade for them."

Noobzilla restocked on Gold pine resin, arrows and crossbow bolts before making his way further through the sewer arriving at a upper balcony along the cavernous room where the Gaping dragon was. It was here he encountered the Channeler and his pack of sewer rats. After dispatching them Noobzilla moved on through the next areas before arriving at Solaires summon sign.

"Ah once again into the fold my good friend." Solaire stated.

"Yep. But Solaire my buddy this is going to be a hell of a fight so here I picked up this crossbow and I wanted you to have it. Ranged attacks will help in the next fight. And take this gold pine resin too."

"Ah! thank you. Now shall we."

"Yes lets."

Both Noobzilla and Solaire passed through the fog gate entering the lowest level of the massive cavernous room. Four very large broken pillars lay in the middle of the room silhouetted buy light shining in from three large holes in the far wall and ceiling as water flowed between them to the chasm at the far end to where the water flowed. From the darkness came a head resembling a alligator but far larger, and then it rose higher and higher as a massive hulking form came closer crawling on it's two long arms, four legs, flexing it's four stubby wings. The dragon like beast crawled fully out of the chasm before raising up and revealing its gaping mouth like torso filled with countless giant teeth as it let out a hungered roar that shook the room.

Noobzilla quick selected his +5 long sword and gave it the gold pine resin treatment before charging letting Solaire like last time to provide the ranged support. Roaring the gaping dragon slammed it's body down, it's wings shattering the nearby stone pillar like a child's toy as the ground shook. Undaunted Noobzilla charged running to the beasts left side and slashed at the beasts arm as it passed. The gaping dragon shuttered as the lightning surged through it's body and started crawling forwards. Solaire fired off a few bolts and lightning spears before moving out of the way. The gaping dragon crashed into the wall again shaking the room.

"I hope this room doesn't come down on us!" Noobzilla stated as he saw Solaire running along the far wall. Solaire having got far enough away once again fired at the gaping dragons exposed back scorching the dark scales with his lightning attacks. Also seeing his opportunity Noobzilla charged at the stunned beast carefully watching the movements of the swaying tail as he approached and then jumped out of the way as the tail slammed down nearly smashing him. Noobzilla then climbed up the beasts back using both his longsword and broadsword to stab at the gaps between the scales.

As he climbed the beasts back Solaire continued shooting as there was more than enough body to target on the massive beast. The gaping dragon raised itself up again and twisted its torso left grabbing onto the wall and started crawling along it sideways. Noobzilla hung on to his swords stuck into the beasts body but they started to loose grip little by little by all the shacking.

The gaping dragon crawled along the wall to the right side of the chamber right over Solaire before dropping back down with a great crash that shattered the other piller. Solaire had avoided the giant beast falling on him by running across the chamber where he continued shooting. Seeing Solaire safe and avoided becoming a pancake Noobzilla continued to climb up the beasts back bloody stab by bloody stab to the gaping dragons tiny head.

The gaping dragon raised up again as Solaire seeing a opening fired into the gaping maw. The monster spasmed and shook as it felt the hits but a moment later the beast hunched over and spewed forth a flood of acidic bile from its body mouth that flooded the chamber. Solaire ran away just in time nearly being eaten away by the vile acid bile as it melted the stone floor but was quickly washed away by the flowing water.

The gaping dragon raised back up as it took another lightning enhanced crossbow bolt. The beast turned to Solaire continuing to shoot and throw his lightning projectiles and charged at the annoying ant. Just then Noobzilla reached the gaping dragons shoulders and wrapping his legs around the wings as he applied more gold pine resin on both his weapons and vigorously stabbed at the beast.

The gaping dragon roared in pain as its spine surged with lightning. It's clawed hand missed Solaire by a few feet as he dodge rolled away and ran to safety as the giant beast thrashed and rampaged about. Noobzilla again held onto the on the wings for dear life. After a minute the beast tired itself out and dropped in exhaustion. Seeing this as his chance to end the fight Noobzilla got up and ran across the neck of the gaping dragon and jumped stabbing his two blades into the eyes of the small head. *ROOOAAARRRR* *HEAVY THUD*

The gaping dragon gave one last roar before dying, falling into a heap. Noobzilla stood up and looked at Solaire. The two warriors waved to each other as Solaire faded returning to his world. After words Noobzilla chopped off the gaping dragons tail and put it in his inventory and after that found the Blighttown key. He then returned to Andra who was very pleased to take the Large ember Noobzilla had picked up in the depths. A week later Andra was done enhancing most of Noobzillas weapons and armor from +5 to +10 along with forging two new weapons. The Dragon King Greataxe made from the Gaping dragons tail. And the Gargoyle Tail Axe made from the Bell Gargoyles tail.

Firelink shrine

Noobzilla made his way across the area to the roofless building housing a group of Clerics he knew would be their. But before that he had to swap out of his burning black knight armor and back into his normal knight armor set which was now far stronger.

"Hello their. I believe we are not acquainted. I am Petrus of Thorolund. Have you business with us? If not I'ed prefer to keep our distance if possible. We are on a mission as you likely are to. A very important one at that, especially for ma, lady surly you can understand."

Noobzilla just stared at the bastard he knew Petrus was but really wanted those Miracles so he sucked it up and played nice. For now. "Hello Petrus (Urge to kill rising) Im Noob of Zilla and i'm looking for... well Miracles. If you would be willing to sell some for souls."

The expression on Petrus face turned to one of mild interest in this Noob of zilla.

"Oh well, if you have the Souls I do have a modest amount of extra scrolls," Petrus replied.

Noobzilla looked at the selection of goods Petrus had and bought all of it. Acquiring the Miracles, Force, Heal, Great Heal Excerpt, Homeward and Seek guidance, along with a Talisman.

"Hmm now how do I use them?"

"Hahaha. That will be extra," Petrus said jokingly but revealed a little of his true self.

Noobzilla looked at the man dead pan. "Oh! ok." (Must... kill...later) "May I talk with your lady?"

"Hmm sure. But don't try anything."

Noobzilla walked past Petrus and up to Vince and Nico who were standing against the wall to the right of the praying lady.

"Hmm what do we have here. You look like a proper knight where do you hail from?"

"Im Noob of Zilla across the sea."

"Oh to the east or west then?"

'Shit he asked that ok ok think.' Noobzilla cursed mentally trying to come up with a answer that won't sound like bullshit. Just then a map of the Dark souls world appeared superimposed on his vision "I... arrived here... in lordern... from," Noobzilla spoke slowly to buy time so he could look at the map which know doubt came from Psyon."The far east. A island nation called Zilla. I'm traveling from nation to nation to become a stronger warrior... but during my travels, became undead."

Vince looked sympathetic as he nodded. "Ah I see."

"*mumbling noise*" Nico said.

Noobzilla glanced at Nico then back to Vince. "Is he ok?"

"Oh Nico he's fine. Just not the talkative type... because he had his tongue cut out."

"What! did he have it cut out or someone attacked him and cut it out?" Noobzilla asked quite sureprized.

"I don't know he won't... tell me *chuckle*"

Nico jabbed Vince in the side.

"Ow! that hurt Nico."

Nico just crossed his arms and turned his head away angry at his friend for making that joke.

"Ok... Vince may I talk with your lady uuh whats her name?"

"Huh? do you have business with her?" he said rubbing is side. Despite having armor on Nico hit him pretty hard with that mace.

"Oh well the best thing about traveling is you meet new people."

"Hmm. Ok" Vince replied deciding it would be ok after getting to know this Noob of Zilla.

Noobzilla walked a little further in to the left of the praying lady in white. "Hello," he said.

"*Feminine laugh* I heard you talking with Vince and Nico. Heh heh. It's been a long time since I saw them play-around like that. Thank you."

"Ugh? your welcome lady?"

"My full name is Reah 2nd daughter of the house of Thorolund. Since were both undead we both have missions and before to long I and my companion's will be leaving for the Catacombs."

Noobzilla really wanted to warn her about that A hole Patches if only to see if he can avert their fate. "Hmm I see. A young lady like yourself must be a little foolish then."

This got Reah livid so much so that she stood up and faced Noobzilla who saw a expression of anger on her face."What did you say!"

Noob didn't expect that kind of response and was cut a little off guard. Are they really alive? or just some advanced organic robots? "Oh... I meant no disrespect lady Thorolund. What I meant was that... since your not familiar with traveling you must be a little too trusting of strangers given the sealtred life a person of noble birth like you would have had."

Lady Thorolund just stared at Noobzilla as Petrus, Vince and Nico watched expecting their lady to have them kill the man for his words. Something Vince and Nico would regret but Petrus not so much... ASSHOLE.

Lady Reah sighed and apologised. "Sorry. I understand your reasoning... and thank you for your concern."

"Oh don't worry. I understand. But may I make a request."

Lady Reah wondered what she could do for Noobzilla. "Since you showed concern for me If it's in my power then I may grant it."

"I'm just looking for Miracles."

Minutes later Noobzilla walked away from them with a few more Miracles namely. Wrath of the Gods, Great heal, Magic Barrier. and a few vials of divine blessings. Hoping he had at least changed their fate a little Noobzilla then made his way around Firelink shrine to Griggs of Vinheim.

"Huh? now I need to figure out how to use these scrolls and magic? Meh, I can ask Griggs."

A minute later to the right of the archway that is straight ahead from the bottom of the stairs leading up to the Undead Burg.

"Oh Noob er you want to learn magic hmm," Giggs replied as he thought.

"Can you teach me or not," Noobzilla asked.

"Oh I can. I may not be a master mage like those at the collage in Vinheim but I can at least teach you the basics. But it depends if you got the potential and talent for magic or not. Which is out of my hands."

Noobzilla quickly opend his main menu and went to the states screen which showed all of his states including Intelligence and Faith were at 50 which are the two that determin ones capacity and power in all the magic in the Dark souls universe besides Attunement which determines how many spells one can learn. "Yep im good. No how do I use my magic mojo."

Griggs broke out laughing at the word magic mojo which he had never heard before. "Ah hahaha that word heheh what does it mean ah ha erm ahemp."

"Oh it's just means you got the stuff or charm or spell," Noobzilla replid as he shuddly remember a odd but funny movie called Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me whice had a different meaning for the word mojo hehe.

The two sat down on the ground as Griggs started explaning the whole magic nature thing and about the difference between the three main types of magic in the world. Miracles, Pyromancies and Sorceries all of which derive their power from the soul at the fundamental level. So the main diffrences between them is their nature and how their used.

Griggs then explained the types of Catalyst and how they focus and amplify Sorceries and also about Talismans and Pyromancy flames but his understanding of the later two was basic at best so the explanation moved on to how to tap into ones magic and use it.

Griggs gave Noobzilla a spell scroll he had but not wanting to impose to much as Griggs who was already showing him how to use magic as payment for saving his life. Noobzilla instead payed the full price for all the spell scrolls Griggs had which was Soul-Arrow, Heavy Soul Arrow, Great Soul Arrow, Great Heavy Soul Arrow, Fall Control, Magic Weapon, Aural Decoy and Magic Shield, as well as buying the Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring and the Lingering Dragoncrest Ring.

Griggs then explained the concept of spell scrolls as them being a type of memory enchantment that copies a mages memories of one type of spell which the mage has to have learned and then copies and enchantment's the memories into a scroll which holds the implanted memories of how the spell works. And when used the memory of the spell is transferred from the scroll to the user like downloading date off a computer. However this also destroys the scroll as they can only carry one spells worth of date at a time. However Griggs did mention that there was a project to try using certain types of crystals to hold the spell information as they don't degrade as much after being used but it as just a rumor Griggs heard during his time in the Vinheim mages collage.

Griggs then showed Noobzilla how to activate a spell scroll and gain the spell in it and afterward Noobzilla felt like a flood gate had been opened in his body as he became aware of his own magical power flowing through his body. Griggs a little surprised at this explained all magic users normally develop the ability to sense and control their own soul energy (which fuels all magic) as they are trained by a master. But many people who have the capacity to use magic but are unaware of their own abilities can sometimes spontaneously develop the ability to use and control their Soul energy which was what just happened to Noobzilla as he gained his first spell. Soul arrow.

"Gah... ah ooh that felt... odd. I feel stronger. And I know how to shoot Soul arrows," Noobzilla exclaimed as he raised his left arm folding his thumb and two lower fingers while extending his index and middle fingers into a gun shape and focused sending Soul energy into his hand and finger tips making them glow blue with energy and then released all of it shooting a small hand sized soul arrow at the wall blasting out a fist sized hole.

"Without a Catalyst to focus and amplify your magic all your spells will be weak like that," Griggs said as he patted Noobzilla on the shoulder.

Noobzilla tried again bringing out his Sorcerer's Catalyst this time and fired another Soul arrow. This time the spell was double the size and power as it blasted out a basketball sized hole out of the nearby stone wall. "Sweet."

Noobzilla was ecstatic that he could use magic now but he still felt lame and stupid for having to use a wand. However since this was a world in which he could use his own inventiveness he got the idea to have Andra make him a new type of catalyst that he could use without feeling stupid and would allow him to use a melee weapon at the same time as using magic.

Oh he had planes to even the odds against the more powerful boss enemies that he knew he would have to face later.

Walking across Firelink shrine to the clearing in front of the ruined chapel the giant raven perches on, Noobzilla next paid Laurentius of the great swamp a visit.

Laurentius sat mediating by the tree as he breathe in and out feeling the world around himself. He then felt someone approaching and opened his eyes seeing Noobzilla approach. "Ah I see you survived. Guess we both escaped that horrid place. So what brings you here?"

Noobzilla sat down beside Laurentius. "Well about that debt you owe me. I want you to teach me about Pyromancy."

"Huh well I do owe you. And I guess by the look of you, you would have a knack for it. But I sense that you already have a type of magic already. You talk to that mage over the way already."

"Yeah,. The both of you have something in common. I saved you and I want to know about magic, so I'm getting starter advice on both Sorcery and Pyromancy. I even bought some Miracle scrolls from those Clarics."

"Heh that's odd. Someone who wants to learn all three types of magic. Your a odd one?!"

"Yeah well I don't give a flying boers tail about what type of magic it is. I just want to learn and become stronger. Besides Miracles, Pyromancies and Sorceries all have their own drawback and advantages."

"He,he, I guess your right," Laurentius replied with a chuckle. " We'll lets get started right now. "

Laurentius then went on to explain that unlike the other schools of magic where Miracles who's power comes from reciting tails of the gods or Sorceries which are focused from the soul itself. Pyromancy is more intune with nature and the natural energy that flow's through the world as well as within one's self and how these inner and outer forces effect each other and interact.

Laurentius then held his right hand up and ignited a pyromancy flame while explaining about how to create a pyromancers flame. He then held his flame in front of Noobzilla telling him to take the flame to feel the energy and recreate it for himself.

Reluctantly Noobzilla closed his eyes, took a breath remembered what he had learned so far before taking the flame cupping it in his hands. He felt it's energy in his palms and focused a bit trying to recreate the flow and concentration of the energy of the soul mixed with nature.

He remembered and felt that the pyromancy flame is much like the Nature chakra from Naruto series but in the Dark Souls world it's not actually energy from nature it's selfe but rather one's feelings concerning nature and the world around them and how that feeling changed the nature of the energy from the soul to produce the flame of pyromancers.

*FOOSH* In the next instant Noobzillas Pyromancy flame doubled it's intensity and size nearly engulfing the two. Laurentius jumped back startled at the size and power of the flame his student had made from the small flame he created and handed over.

Concentrating Noobzilla decreased the size and intensity of his flame but despite the flames power and size it did not burn anything as he had now hostile intentions, instead the flame was warm even when as he held it.

"Ugh well... you certainly got the talent for it. Maybe because your not biased towards one discipline of magic from another and are more accepting of them. Maybe I could learn a thing or two from you."

Noobzilla smiled as he looked into his own pyromancy flame. "Yeah maybe. Can you learn other types of magic?"

This caught Laurentius a little off guard. "Eh huh? me. Learn Sorceries? Well... I guess there's no real reason someone can't learn all three types of magic. Maybe i'll try it out."

Noobzilla then got a great idea."Hey Laurentius. How about we travel down to the Blight-town together. I hear a rumor that the way to lost Izalith is down their and two traveling together would be less risk."

Laurentius thought about it and was more then a little surprised at the fact Noob knew about the legendary city that was the origin and birthplace of pyromancy.

"Uh well... our worlds are synchronised since we can talk like this sooo yeah. I'd love to travel with you. Friend."

It was Noobzillas turn to be caught off guard by Laurentius last word. Friend. Which made him question even more about weather or not everyone in this version of Dark souls was just a NPC or were real people with a real history. If this version of Dark souls was created by another being like Psyon then it wouldn't be out of the question.

In any case Noobzilla bought the pyromancy spells, Fire orb, Combustion, Iron flesh, Flash sweat, and the good old Fireball spells off Laurentius and trained a bit with them before both of them made their way down to the mute fire keeper girl where Noobzilla used the Firekeeper soul he found in the undead parish to upgrade his Estus flask. The bastard Knight Lautrec was also their sitting cross from the firekeeper. Noobzilla gave him the stink eye before he and Laurentius made their way down further to the ruins of New londo where Noobzilla had one last person to talk about concerning magic, namely enchantment.

[Time-Skip. Two hours later]

After talking with Blacksmith Rickert of Vinheim about enchantment and weapons Noobzilla and Laurentius made there way back to the Depths where they entered Blit town. Noobzilla used his Soul arrows to hit enemies at range before taking them on up close with his Long and broadswords the upgraded blades easily sliced through flesh and pierced armor with their Titanite upgrades while Laurentius used his Pyromancy to give support. The battles with the poison dart shooting inhabitants of the scaffolding were annoying at most and deadly at least when those fat club swinging guys were in the way and after... accidentally starting a few fires which spread and burned most... of upper Blight town to ash's the two eventually reached the first bonfire and Noobzilla able to pick up the Iaito katana before the are collapsed to a smoldering heap of wood that fell into the pit below.

After that the two continued fighting through the area and Noobzilla picked up the pyromancy the Power Within from that giant wall Parasite. Continuing on they made their way down to the lowest level where they hit the second bonfire. Next they explored the area around the giant tree which went a slowly as they had to move slowly move from small island to small island through the muck using Purple Moss Clumps to counter-act the poison swamp. And fought off the annoying giant blood sucking insects with ranged spells as they moved on through the swamp eventually encountering a certain witch beside .

"Quelana of... of Izalith, oh by the great swamp!" Laurentius exclaimed completely geeking out that he has just met a daughter of the mother of Pyromancy.

"Slow down boy, she's real," Noobzilla said holding the Pyromancers shoulder.

Quelana tilted her head to the side observing the odd ones that can see her something quite rare. One a Pyromancer of the great swamp and the other a odd one to have spells of differing schools including Miracles. This man was intriguing. "Tell me... Noob of Zilla why are you here in this wretched place?"

Noobzilla turned to the pyro witch who was carefully watching his eyes through the helmet.

"Well i'm here on a undead quest to ring that bell and exploring with the company of friends."

Quelana saw no deceit in the mans eyes nor heard any malice in his voice. He was as if a innocent treading where angels dare not go. And this made Quelana all the more confused and attracted to him. It had been a long time since she could feel like trusting someone. And then there was the Pyromancer who was although a loyal adherent of the ways of her mother he...

Cut to Laurentius staring creeply with sparkly eyes. Noobzilla smacks him.

"Lay off man your creeping her out," Noob stated flexing his slapping hand.

"Uuuh is he alright?"

"Uh yeah. I guess he's just a real big fan of you and your mother."

Laurentius stood back up back to normal now. "Eh,Hem. Sorry for my rude behavior lady Quelana it... won't happen again," Laurentius stated as he bowed respectfully.

Quelana was pleased at the man's proper forearm of respect and was thus willing to forget his behavior. "Its ok. It's obvious you greatly admire my mother an me. Laurentius. Noob. May I ask something of you."

"Sure ask away my lady," Laurentius shot out before Noobzilla could say anything.

"Could... you kill my sisters and mother," Quelana asked solemnly.

Laurentius was floored by the request but Noobzilla knew it was coming.

"Wha what. Why would you ask such a thing of us and to do it to your own family?!"

"I understand if your not willing to do it," Quelana stated regretfully.

"No well do it."

Noobzillas reply shook Laurentius. "What!? why would you agree-"

Noobzilla shot the pyromancer a look that made him clam up."Because were men helping a lady with something deeply disturbing to her and close to her heart."

"The reason I want you to Kill... my family... is because they have been... twisted and deformed by the power of the chaos flame. Body and mind. You will understand once you meet my elder sister Quelaag farther ahead."

Laurentius placed his right fist over his chest and kneeled. "I... understand. My lady Quelana I and my companion will free your family from there curse."

"Uh... thank you. And good luck," Quelana replied sadness in her voice.

"Before we go could we buy some Pyromancy scrolls off you? Just asking."

Quelana smiled. "Of course. You will need more powerful spells if you are to complete my request."

Noobzilla and Laurentius both bought all the spell scrolls Quelana had and then made their way across the rest of the poison swamp entering the cave leading to Quelaag's domain.

The cave opened to a expansive cavern that had some ruines on the other side. The two walked deeper in a bit before seeing a giant spider appear out from behind the ruins. Laurentius was shocked to see that the giant spider had the upper torso and arms of a beautiful woman with fiery red hair holding a wicked looking sword.

"By Gwyn's beard that's... Quelaag!" Laurentius exclaimed standing there like a deer in head-lights at the fire drider that was Quelaag.

Noobzilla on the other hand quick swapped to his Burning black knight armor set and quick selected his Pyromancy flame and Sorcerer's Catalyst and started shooting off a barrage of spells at the charging Quelaag.
