Thank you, to anyone that read the first chapter and hopefully will continue reading the rest. Especially thanks to; MrStabyB11, Connorsweggy, and IsThisEvenAShip for reviewing and showing support. (Also IsThisEvenAShip please tell your brother to use proper grammar next time, cause "My sibling's a legit writer so like not like so the this is legit information." doesn't really make sense. But thanks for the advice)We will be trying to get out at least 1 Chapter would have every week but since is still summer you can at least hope for one chapter per 2ish days, if we get enough review that is. Please remember to Follow, Review, Favorite, and all that jazz. Thanks, and Good luck on the Rift. Also if you ever play with Shiftergolem in League please report him for letting me write almost all of this (jk he's going to kill me now but anything he says against me isn't true. Unless its about pudding, then that might be true...)
- Helium2323
Well he pretty much said everything. So yeah. Not much for me to say except for the fact that I wrote the whole judgement and stuff so...yea. And P.S: If you see Helium2323, dodge queue, cause he sucks (jkjk, he's good, don't make him support.) And by the way, Helium tried to play as Pudding (Zac) in LoL, and he was trash. Just kidding, again.
So, Good day, Good night, Good afternoon to all those around the world supporting us. We might not be champions from LoL, but we still need support.
Signed,
Shiftergolem
3 Months after last chapter
Nami hugged her parents as she says goodbye. I really will miss them but I can't stay here anymore. It reminds me too much of Nautilus. I have to get away from this place of I will be stuck in that memory forever.
"Ill come and visit whenever I can" Nami called behind her while waving. All of her belongings she needed would be sent ahead before her. Nami felt her excitement rising as she thought about all the fun things she would be able to do by joining the league as a Champion. Thought she was happy at the thought she was going to miss all the things she had grown used to over hre time in these oceans growing up. All of her secret hideouts she and her friends would go to, her cove, her family, and she couldn't help but remember one of the best things of all the underwater volcano where her and Nautilus met. At the thought of that name she snapped. After almost 1 month of trying to forget about it, the thoughts came rushing in. But by now she was used to it. She tried to push them away and soon she continued thinking happier thoughts. There will be so many things to do at the League... so many new people to meet, and I can finally practice my skills, who know when we will need another Tidecaller.
Nami continued off, trying to put her past behind her and look towards her future.
Nautilus woke up to sunlight shining into his eyes. He climbed out of his bed and slowly adjusted his feet to stand. He looked around "His Room". It really was owned by the Institute of war and was just lent to him as long as he stayed in the League. He was partially thankful for them allowing him in with next to no background being given but, even if he wanted to he couldn't of given them anything about his past life, all he knew was that he had something to do with that ocean, but he left that out. He didn't find it important. He continued to his small kitchen, that he had specially stocked with different types of seafood. He didn't seem to need to eat often, and about once a week had a small amount of food. Whatever seemed to attach him to this suit also seemed to be quite self-sufficient. He slowly ate some leftover crab he had in his kitchen, and thought about another thing he found quite strange about the suit and what bonded him with it. it seemed he had no mouth he just put food into the small black hole just below his eyes. It seemed he didn't need to chew, it just consumed the food and that was that. He also didn't notice any suction it seemed just to swallow what it wanted to, for it had never eaten anything other than food, at least when he had tried to test that.
Nautilus continued out of his room down to the main floor of the League, thudding down the hall and into the stairwell. A few summoners came to him and asked them to sign autographs or even one had a small anchor just like the one he was carrying around now. He quickly got those out of the way and dismissed them without a second thought. No one really cared about him, thats why he was found alone at the bottom of the sea. Even some other Champions thing I'm a monster. He hurried to the practice grounds, considering he didn't have many friends he didn't have much else to do rather than practice. He tried to keep his strength up and get as good as he could at fighting, he never knew when he might come across the something, or someone that made him into this thing. He entered the area and noticed that another champion was willing to fight a one on one, it was Shen another tank in the league. He asked him if they could fight, and Shen agreed with a bow. They both spawned in on the Howling Abyss, A desolate bridge in the middle of the Frejlord. Nautilus bought his items; a Kindlegem, basic boots and a few health pots. As he was running to lane, he looked at the gem he had just bought. It still sparkled and glowed, he was fascinated by the gem, he wondered where it was found, for it seemed anything subterranean, and ever did try to collect gems and other stones in his free time.
Nautilus reached lane and saw the outline of shen in the distance. They approached just behind their minions, Passively killing the minions and collecting the small amounts of gold. He seemed to have seen some mistake and tried to dash in almost taunting Nautilus. Nautilus then followed up by using Riptide. Shen was caught by the quick attack and fell back slowed. Nautilus took his chance and pulled them both closer together, smashing him with its hammer in the process. The force was so much that Shen got stuck in place but he used Feint to shield some of the damage. Shen counterattacked by throwing a knife at his armour. It pierced and nautilus felt a pain in the left shoulder. They continued small trades like that until they were both quite low. Nautilus saw that Shen was out of his tower's range and tried to start another fight, hopefully to the death this time. Only this time Shen was ready and landed this dash taunting Nautilus forcing him to attack Shen. Shen slashed at Nautilus, and kept stabbing him with his vorpal blades, but Nautilus was not done yet, he activated his Riptide slowing shen down, as he smashed him with his anchor. As shen ran back towards his towe Nautilus threw his line hoping to catch Shen. Shen dodged to the side with this Shadow dash, but Nautilus hit Shen's tower, Nautilus Pulled himself in while using riptide again and activating his shield. The tower shot Beams at Nautilus but he tried to ignore them while he used his ultimate skill, Depth Charge. The water followed Shen Finally catching up to him and knocking him up for the kill. Nautilus used his flash to escape the turret range with just under 100 health. Then he and Shen were both teleported back to the Training room. There battle was just first one to kill rather than first to destroy the Nexus. Nautilus nodded to Shen as they looked at each other against before turning and leaving heading back towards his room.
As he heaved himself up the stairs he thought of what he could do for the rest of today besides practice. Then the Kindlegem that he had bought earlier came back to him. He could search for gems or things like that to add to his collection he had started on previous days. He went back to his room and changed into his Subterranean suit. He also wasn't quite sure how that worked it seemed that if he held the other suit in his hands he could choose to switch into it. he wasn't sure how it worked but they would just instantly switch. He hung up his old original suit and teleported himself to the nearest bay. He dove under water and looked for a good place to start digging. He saw a small opening in the rock and swam down to it. He took his pick and started away and the rock slowly chipping it off, all while feeling calmed by doing this. He felt at home.
Nami looked at the institute, and the summoner overlooking me, as though she was some sort of foreign specimen.
"Are you familiar with the procedure of the reflection, Nami?" The summoner asked.
"No, I am not." Nami said, clearly confused.
"I cannot tell you, but all I will tell you is that a great challenge lies within these doors."
"What exactly is this challenge you speak of?"
"It all depends on you." the Summoner chuckled."Enter these doors and prove yourself!"
Nami didn't talk. She saw the marble doors, towering over her. She opened them, with only blackness within.
Then she entered, and it was all dark.
Where am I?
She woke up in her bed. Even without opening her eyes, she knew where she was.
The sea...the cove...her home.
Opening her eyes, she saw, beside her, someone she hadn't seen in months, sleeping.
Nautilus...is that really you?
She tapped Nautilus on the shoulder. It really was him.
"Wake up, Naut!" She said, happily.
Nautilus rumbled and woke up, looking up at Nami. She saw the smile in his eyes. He'd stayed for around a month now, and already she had grown close to him, finding out about how he'd become who he was and how he was who he is now.
"What will there be to do now?" He asked. Nautilus was always in for an adventure.
"It's a surprise!" Nami said excitedly, a large grin on her face. "Follow me!"
Nautilus followed Nami to this place. They swam higher, going closer and closer to the world above.
"You can look around now." Nami said.
Nautilus looked around, amazed.
Nami looked around as well. The waterfall was beautiful. She'd been here before, perhaps when she was younger, crystals reflecting off the lights the water gave off. The most striking part however, was the statue of two Marai on top of the waterfall, staves clashing. A symbol of union. A symbol of trust. A symbol of love.
Nautilus was still speechless for a while until Nami spoke.
"Do you like it, Nautilus?"
"I-I don't know what to say." He said, clearly grateful.
"I have s-something else to tell you." She said.
"What is it?"
"I love you." She said. It felt as though a huge weight had been lifted off her heart, and that she could breathe.
Nautilus didn't say anything for a long time. He seemed to be just staring at Nami.
"Are you there?" She said.
"Wait, who are you? Where am I?" Nautilus said blankly.
"Stop with the tricks Nautilus, are you there?" She said, though worried.
"What do you mean?"
"This can't be! Y-you don't remember me?"
"No."
"Why does it have to be like this?" she said, on the verge of crying.
"You did it to me on that day. You brought it upon yourself." He said, flatly, without emotion, almost as though he disliked her somehow.
"What do you mean?" She said, at first confused.
Then she remembered what he meant, and at that said:
"Oh, that...But, now? I thought we knew each other at last. But-"
She couldn't finish her sentence. It was too much. Her heart felt as though it fell to the bottom of the sea and put her face in her hands, her heart sinking into a black void, as she felt something terrible, something she'd never experienced before. Suddenly, she realized:
This never happened.
As it sank in, she realized that this never happened. It was confirmed when the background around her faded and the water dispersed almost as quickly as it came. A summoner stood where the symbol of unity once was and asked:
"Nami, why do you want to join the League?" He asked with authority
"To save my people and find the moonstone. But more importantly, I want to forget about my past mistakes and start anew. Hopefully, my kind will accept me as I change into who I want to become and not who I was turning out to be."
"How does it feel like, exposing your memories?"
"It feels...strange. As if you were hollow and letting water sink into every part of you. But most importantly, it was painful."
"I see. Well, you'll be surprised at what you'll find here." He said, with a wink.
She wondered what he meant, as the light returned to the room she was in. She stepped into the doors to the League Excited to have a new start.
It would be a new beginning.
