Author's Note: This is an idea that I have forever ago, before I found the wonder that is . It originally was only going to contain the worlds of Star Wars, Eragon, and Harry Potter. Now I'm going to add Rosario Vampire, as well as elements of Starship Troopers, and Aliens, though those parts aren't going to appear for a very long time. Well let's get started.
December 2012: Dimensional rift opens and deposits the land of Alagaesia (1) into our world, much to the displeasure of the Australians.
January 2013: Peaceful contact between the Alagaesians and the Terrans is made. The two share histories and information. The Terrans learn that magic, Elves, Dwarves, Dragons, and other such creatures are real.
July 2013: The Wizarding (2) community of Terra make themselves known to the rest of the world. The Alagaesians are relieved that they aren't the only magically inclined people on this planet.
December 2013: One year to the day and the three factions form an Alliance. The Terran Homogeny is born with five representatives from the Riders, the Wizards and Witches of Terra, and the Terrans themselves making up the ruling council. The trading of technology between the Terrans and the Alagaesians is approved by the council. The lives of the everyday citizen of Alagaesia are improved tenfold.
December 2015: Two years after the Homogeny is born a strange ship is detected in orbit. The ship sends down a shuttle to Terra. They land outside the Old UN building where the Council meets. People dressed in robes exit the shuttle and approach the Council, the Council Guard tenses. They introduce themselves as Jedi from the Republic (3) and ask for an audience with the Council.
February 2016: After two months of debate, the Terran Homogeny declares that they will form an alliance with the Republic but will not be joining the Republic. The Homogeny adopts credits as a form of currency. The true reason the Jedi show up is reviled, there are force sensitive's on Terra.
December 2016: One year after the arrival of the Republic a galaxy wide peace-keeping force is created known only as 'The Council'. The leader of the Riders, the President of the United Magical Nations, and the Grandmaster of the Jedi are chosen to lead the organization. Any Rider, Jedi, Witch or Wizard is welcome to join. The Jedi, and Riders discover that Terra is a proverbial breeding ground for Youkai AKA monsters. A Joint order is sent out to all the members of the peacekeeping force, all Youkai are to be considered evil and killed on sight. The general populace was not to know about their existence because it would cause a panic. The Youkai go into hiding shortly after.
December 2216: 200 years later, a boy is born to a Terran family that sends a ripple throughout the galaxy. All the Jedi, Riders, Witches, Wizards, and even the most powerful Youkai feel his birth.
December 2221: Five years later on the boys fifth birthday his family is slaughtered by 'rouge' Youkai. He is saved by Vrael, the leader of the Riders. As he searched with his mind to find stragglers he brushed a vast mind. He turned and looked at the boy, intrigued. He sent out a probe to the boys mind and was almost overwhelmed by what he felt. This is who had caused the ripple to cross the galaxy, and if his assumptions were correct, he held power beyond anyone's imagining. He asked the boy his name to which he replied "Daniel Kane." Vrael took Daniel with him to the other leaders.
September 2231: Present day.
A boy around 14 going on 15 walks down a deserted corridor, he's dressed in light brown and tan robes which conceal his well toned body. He had black hair with soul-piercing blue eyes and pointed ears. He was rather tall for his age, though not lanky, and not freakishly so. He approached a set of double doors and waited. Eventually the doors opened and he entered.
The room was circular, reminiscent of the Jedi Council Chambers, except that instead of 20 or so chairs there was only three in this room, and all three of them were occupied. He bowed deeply to them. "Masters." he said. The three chairs were occupied by the arguably three most powerful men in the galaxy. In the center chair sat Vrael, the leader of the Riders. To his right sat Jedi Grandmaster Yoda. And to Vrael's left sat President Matthew Kerrigan. These three men had been part of the boy's life since as long as he could remember.
(Flashback)
Vrael was seated in the audience chamber of his personal starship with the boy he had rescued. The boy, Daniel, had said nothing more after he had told Vrael his name. Though Vrael could understand that, it wasn't everyday that you watched your family get slaughtered in front of you. He extended a probe to the boy's mind again just to make sure. Yep it still felt the same. He then had an idea; walking over to one of the cupboards on his ship he retrieved a foot long oval object. The object was a deep blue-black color with lighter veins running the length of it.
He brought the object over to Daniel. Daniel looked up at Vrael as he approached with the object. Vrael offered the object to Daniel, and Daniel looked at Vrael, confusion on his face, but Vrael nodded his consent. Daniel took the object from him but it ended up being too heavy for him and he dropped it. He looked up at Vrael, fear evident in his eyes. But Vrael could only look at the object in wonder. He looked at Daniel and smiled, Daniel's face lost the fearful look and he smiled as well. Vrael left the object with Daniel and left the room. As the door opened two elves braced to attention. He turned to one of them. "Keep him company." he said. The elf nodded and she entered the room pulling off her helmet so that Daniel could see her face and smiled.
Vrael entered another section of the ship. He typed some commands into the console and two holoprojectors came to life. Jedi Grandmaster Yoda and President Matthew Kerrigan were now standing before him. "Lord Vrael, unexpected, this is." Yoda said. "Yes, this is unexpected Lord Vrael. Why have you contacted us?" Kerrigan asked politely. "Something very interesting has come up. I've discovered a Force-Sensitive on Terra that you apparently missed Master Yoda." he said. Yoda's face grew troubled "Disturbing, this news, is. To have missed a Force-Sensitive, bode well, it does not." he said. "I agree, but that alone wouldn't cause you to call us now." Kerrigan said. "True." said Vrael. "You both know that I carry a dragon egg with me on my ship everywhere I go, right?" he asked. They both nodded. "On a gut feeling, I presented it to him." he said. He took a deep breath. "When he touched it, the dragon inside stirred." he said.
Both of the men could only stare in shock. "But that's not all." Vrael continued. "He was hiding by way of magic." he said. The Jedi and Wizard both looked a little confused. "Rider magic?" Kerrigan asked. "No, your kind of magic Mr. President." Vrael responded. Now the two were utterly confused. "Explain the disturbance we all felt, this does." Yoda finally said. Vrael nodded "We have been presented a unique scenario, someone who was born with the power of all three of the major Peacekeeping factions." he said. "What do you propose?" asked Kerrigan. Vrael let a small smile creep on his face "We train him." he said simply. "His family, what of?" Yoda asked. The smile on Vrael's face instantly vanished "Killed by Youkai." he replied. The two men nodded gravely. "How are we going to go about training him?" asked Kerrigan. "Well…" Vrael began.
His dragon hatched two days after he had touched the egg. The dragon was blue-black, just like his egg was. When he reached out to touch it a flash of white light and pain assaulted the young boy. When he woke the dragon was laying up against him like a cat. Vrael was next to Daniel when he woke. "You're lucky young one; most children would kill to be in the situation you are now." he said. He looked at the dragon and smiled at its sleeping form. He looked back to Daniel "You're going to have to give him a name." he said. Daniel looked at the dragon for a moment then looked up at Vrael. "Jorgen." he said. The dragon stirred slightly then returned to what it was doing. "I believe he likes it." Vrael said.
Daniel looked back at Jargon and smiled. The next ten years passed in a blur of training, meditation, and learning. All three leaders worked together, teaching Daniel in their area of expertise. At age nine he had crafted his first lightsaber. It had glowed with a blue-black color when he had finished and activated it. Two years later he had went to Diagon Ally to receive his wand. It too was a blue-black color that matched his lightsaber. However, he didn't attend Hogwarts because his three teachers feared for his life if he were ever discovered. All this time, Jorgen had grown in size. He was many times the size he was when he had been hatched.
Daniel eventually learned that he shared a mental link with Jorgen. When they went flying, they would discuss what Daniel learned and other things. Sometimes they would just soar and Daniel would just revel in the feeling.
By age 15 he had graduated from being a padawan to Master Yoda to being a knight, and was close to receiving his Rider's sword from Vrael. According to Kerrigan, Daniel had progressed in magic far faster than any other student before, even He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Basically, he was performing magic of much higher caliber than a 5th year would. Kerrigan decided to graduate him early and removed the Underage Magic detection charm. Daniel was effectively a member of the Wizarding community. (If you've never read the Inheritance Cycle, when a Rider receives his or her sword, they have become a full Rider and have joined their ranks).
(End Flashback)
"Daniel Kane, you have been summoned for your final test to join the ranks of the Riders." Vrael said. Daniel bowed "I'm ready Master." he said. The next few hours consisted of Daniel performing different acts with, as the Terrans called it, Rider magic, answering philosophical questions, and finally a test of the blade.
When the Elves first heard about the Jedi's lightsabers they were greatly intrigued about them. Eventually someone tested an Elven sword against a lightsaber. The Jedi was shocked when his lightsaber didn't cut the blade in half. It was discovered that the particular metal, Brightsteel, combined with the Elven magic used in its creation allowed it to withstand the lightsaber.
Vrael stood and drew his sword, and Daniel drew his lightsaber. The snap-hiss of the blue-black blade was comforting to the young man. They stood facing each other, neither wanting to make the first move. Daniel knew that the Force gave him an edge over the Leader of the Riders, but he also knew that Vrael had centauries of training, practice and experience to help him.
Eventually they moved as one. The two fought for what seemed like hours but was only 15 minutes when Vrael called a halt. "You have passed your final test." he said. Daniel deactivated his lightsaber and snapped it on his belt. An Elf Daniel recognized as Rhunon stepped forward with a bundle in her arms. She unwrapped it and Daniel laid his eyes on the blue-black scabbard of a sword. She handed it to him hilt first and he wrapped his hand around the hilt.
He slowly drew the blade. It was the same blue-black as his lightsaber and wand. It fit his hand perfectly; it was a hand-and-a-half, just like his lightsaber so that he could wield one or both at the same time. He took the scabbard from Rhunon, sheathed his sword, and knelt at Vrael's command. Vrael tapped him on either shoulder "I hereby induct you into the Dragon Riders. Rise Rider Daniel." he said.
Daniel rose as he was bidden. Vrael returned to his seat and Rhunon left the chamber. "Now that that matter is finished, on to the real reason we called you here." he said. "Come for you, this did." Yoda said, using the Force to move a pamphlet to Daniel. He took it and saw that it was indeed addressed to him. "What is Youkai Academy?" he asked. "In all honesty, we don't know. Though we do have some theories as to what it is." Kerrigan said. "Sending you, we are, ascertain what this academy is, you will." Yoda said. Daniel bowed his head "Of course Master, I will depart post-haste." he said. "Also a word of warning, do not use your true last name outside these walls. It is a matter of great importance." Kerrigan said. "You are dismissed." Vrael said. Daniel turned on his heel and marched out of the chamber.
"Tell him, we should have." Yoda said when Daniel was out of earshot. "It wouldn't have helped anything if we had." Kerrigan said. "Besides, he'll learn soon enough." Vrael said. None of them said it but they all hated the idea of a Youkai base. But there was no way any of them could get a large enough force through the barriers, so they were forced to tolerate its presence… for now.
Daniel was walking briskly down a corridor, away from the chamber with the three leaders of the peacekeeping organization. 'Jorgen, we have our first mission.' he said with his mind. 'I see what does it entail?' Jorgen asked. 'We have to infiltrate a school called Youkai Academy and ascertain its purpose.' Daniel replied. 'Youkai… why does that word sound so familiar?' 'If I remember correctly Youkai translates into…' Daniel stopped walking 'Into what?' '…monster.'
They were both silent for a moment. 'Do you think the school thought it would be funny for that to be its name, or is it a school for monsters?' Jorgen asked. 'I don't know.' replied Daniel. 'To be on the safe side, we're going to have to take some precautions.' Daniel continued. 'I agree.' Jorgen said.
Daniel eventually arrived at where Jorgen was waiting for him. 'What kind of precautions do you have in mind?' Jorgen asked. 'Well the one you're going to hate the most is going to be the most critical.' Daniel said. 'Oh?' 'I'm going to have to change your appearance.' 'Oh hell no!' 'I can't be seen walking around with a dragon walking next to me. Besides it won't be permanent, you'll be able to shift between your forms.' Jorgen thought for a moment 'What will the other form be?' 'I'm not versed in Wizarding magic as of yet to produce a human body, however I could use Gramarye.' 'No, I do not wish to be human.' Daniel sighed 'Very well, then how about an eagle?' Jorgen thought for a moment 'I guess that will do.'
Daniel nodded and began formulating the spell he would need. Once he had compiled the necessary knowledge, he searched his mind for that one place that was a part of him yet apart from him. He found it and smashed the barrier that was holding it. He let the magic course through his body then spoke. He felt the effects of the spell instantly. It started draining his energy though not at the rate it would have even a year before. Daniel's right palm lit up as his Gedwey Ignasia glowed with the release of magic.
Jorgen felt his body begin to shift. He felt his bones change shape, his front legs shifted into wings and the wings on his back retreated into him. His hard scales were replaced with feathers, and his snout was replaced with a golden beak. His head feathers changed from black to white though the rest of the feathers remained black. His tail also changed to white and his back legs changed to a golden color. But the most noticeable change was that he shrank to a fraction of his original size.
When the transformation was complete, Jorgen was sore all over his body. After a time the pain began to subside. He stretched his new body and began exploring its range of motions. He looked over to his rider who was bent over with his hands on his knees breathing deeply. 'Well, that sucked.' Jorgen said. Daniel chuckled 'That it did, the more it happens the less your body should feel pain.' Jorgen looked himself over. 'I recognize this creature…' 'It's the national bird of my home country, the Bald Eagle.' Daniel said. Jorgen looks at his new form with an appreciative gaze. 'To inhabit the body of the symbol of the most powerful nation on Terra, it's a honor.' he said. Daniel held out his arm and Jorgen flapped up and landed on it. He then proceeded to work his way up to Daniel's shoulder.
Daniel then drew his sword and looked at it. 'It will be hard to hide something like that.' Jorgen commented. Daniel nodded 'You should name it; a Rider's sword should have a name.' Jorgen continued. 'Aye, though I don't know what to name it.' Daniel said. 'Perhaps in time, it will name itself.' Jorgen said. Daniel nodded absentmindedly.
He then thought of the spell he would need and uttered the words. The sword started turning transparent. Once the sword was fully transparent he used the same spell on the scabbard. He also put a binding spell on both his lightsaber and his sword. Unless he was the one to draw either they could not be used. When he was satisfied with his handiwork he strapped the sword on his back. 'One more thing.' Daniel said. He concentrated on his Force signature and he felt himself vanish from other people's Force sense. Only his Masters would be able to find him. 'I believe that's everything, shall we go?' he asked. Jorgen nodded, and the duo walked to the hanger bay of the structure that had been their home for the last ten years.
When they arrived they took in the sight of the hanger bay. It was vast, with many different styles and types of ships. There were low stock freighters, single seat starfighers, and some yachts. Since he never needed to leave the enclave, he was never given a ship of his own. Eventually, after wandering around the hanger bay, admiring the ships he felt the force tell him to scoot to the left. An explosion, a shower of sparks, and a scream soon followed and Jorgen took flight as a girl tumbled off the ship.
Daniel easily caught her, using both the force and his enhanced strength. She climbed out of his arms "Thanks for that." she said. "No problem." Daniel said. "I'm Zela, what's your name?" she asked sticking out her hand. "Daniel. Is this your ship?" he asked pointing to it. "You better believe it, mate." she said patting the ship. She turned her head back to the boy who had caught her when that power coupling had failed, explosively. He was shorter than her though not by much, and he looked about two years younger than her. He had raven black hair and soul piercing blue eyes, and was rather pale. As though he hadn't been in the sun for a very long time. He also had pointed ears, which signified that he was an elf. He was a little on the thin side, in her opinion. 'My god, if Granma got her hands on this boy…' she thought. He also had that eagle on his shoulder. If she didn't know any better she'd say it was a darker version of a Bald Eagle. Though only in the body feathers, they are supposed to be brown not black.
"You wouldn't happen to be making any trips to Terra soon, would you?" Daniel asked. She scratched her head in thought "Actually, now that you mention it, I was contracted to take someone to Terra." she said narrowing her eyes suspiciously at Daniel. "You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you?" she asked. Daniel chuckles softly "That would actually be me." he said rubbing the back of his neck. Zela did a slight double take. 'I'm supposed to take this… kid… and drop him off on one of the most unforgiving planets this side of the Outer Rim?' she asked herself. "Well… since you're here I guess there's no reason for us to remain. Get aboard, and we'll leave immediately." she said.
Daniel and Jorgen followed Zela into the ship, which, if he was honest, wasn't all that much to look at. Granted, he hadn't seen any ships since that one time in Master Vrael's personal yacht but that's beside the point. If he could remember correctly this was one of those YT-1000 light stock freighters. It did bear some resemblance to its cousin the YT-1300. The YT-1000 was smaller, and instead of the twin prongs on the bow of the ship it just had a single prow. She also sprouted single barrel turrets on either side of the ship, almost eliminating the blind spot that the dorsal and ventral guns shared. Though, if he remembered correctly, they were woefully underpowered and most captains either dumped them altogether, or upgraded them. The YT-1300 also had a single albeit large engine, the YT-1000 had twin engine nacelles mounted on the far outsides of the stern of the ship. Add that to the patchwork look and feel and the numerous battle scars, and she looked like a piece of shit.
"Welcome aboard the Naria." she said. Daniel looked around the inside of the ship and was slightly shocked. 'I shouldn't have judged it so soon.' he thought. 'I agree, though the outside has a neglected look about it, the inside is relatively nicely furnished.' Jorgen said. "We should arrive at Terra within around three days. In the meantime make yourself comfortable." Zela continued. Daniel took Jorgen and the two of them made their way to the cargo hold. 'This should do nicely.' Daniel thought as he surveyed it. It was perfect for what he needed. The Master's had instilled in him a lack of material need. The cargo hold was perfect in that it was out of the way and that it wasn't furnished. He was going to spend the next three days meditating. Though of course he was going to eat and sleep as well.
He sat down and Jorgen hopped from his shoulder to the floor then up onto a container. He sat down and tucked his head under his left wing and promptly fell asleep. Daniel sat as well and began meditating. Eventually, he fell asleep, still meditating.
Author's Note: Ok so my first chapter for my newest story. As I said above, I had this idea a long time ago. At first I was thinking that I would try and get permission to actually write this as a book. But I knew that wasn't going to happen so the idea sorta died off. Now, with , I can finally make this dream a reality. And I'll tell you what; this is going to be a long and rough ride spanning many "books". I plan to write a "book" for each section, so this first book is going to cover his years in Youkai, the next will cover… oh wait that would be telling. Well I guess you guys don't get to find out until I write it. This is going to be massively AU for all Verses used. So don't kill me if the sequence of events I use is different than canon. Also the YT-1000: I pulled all that shit out of my ass at 12:40 in the morning, so don't beat the shit out of me. Don't worry; I do plan to update my other two stories as well. As a side note I've joined the U.S. Navy and will be leaving for Basic on June 11th and will spend 8 weeks there. So don't expect anything until around the beginning of August. Review as you see fit. Flames not appreciated.
If you haven't figured it out it is pre-Galbatorix.
This is pre-Voldemort's first rising in a big way.
This is pre-Clone Wars in a big way.
