Author's Note: I do not plan on describing matches in LoL, as they would take a long time. I'll probably give small summaries of the matches. As for the champions in the matches, I might/might not be specific with names. If not, I'll refer to the team as a whole rather than each champion individually. The fighting scenes that will be described in detail takes place either outside of LoL or just in specific parts of a match. Also, I am not exactly following the LoL timeline. This means that unreleased champions during a specific time might be present in the story.

A Distant Call – Chapter 2: Welcome to the League!


Inside the League of Legends, champions and summoners are anxious to start. Some champions are running around, trying to find the summoners that chose them. Meanwhile, some summoners are preparing their magic for the upcoming matches. Hours went by and the champions and summoners all tried to get to know each other. However, before they started, an announcer's voice could be heard.

Greetings! And Welcome to the League of Legends! Before we get started, I would like to give you an overall synopsis on one of the Fields of Justice, the Summoner's Rift.

On Summoner's Rift, the two opposing teams start on the opposite sides of the map, diagonally from each other. Each team is composed of 5 champions with their respective summoners. Each champion starts at level 1 and then progressively gains experience from either minion kills or champion kills/assists. As they progressively gain experience, champions also buy items to improve themselves. The objective of any match on Summoner's Rift is to destroy the enemy Nexus that is located near the fountain which the champions start on. The map itself is split into three lanes: top, mid, bot. These lanes have turrets that guard them and in order for a team to progress, they must destroy the turrets in order. The Nexus also has turrets that guard them. At the end of each lane, there are inhibitors that also must/could be destroyed in order to progress. Once an inhibitor is destroyed by a team, it allows the respective teams' summoners to summon Super Minions that are harder to kill than the other laning minions. They have increased armor, health, and damage, so they can take quite a hit and can dish out damage more so than the other laning respective jungles, which are filled with neutral minions that don't belong to any team, are in between these lanes. The neutral minions are the Wraiths, Wolves, Young Lizards, Lizard Elder, Golems, and Ancient Golem. The Ancient Golem and Lizard Elder both are harder to kill than the other minions in the jungle as they have a higher amount of health. The Ancient Golem gives a temporary buff that increases the mana regeneration and reduces the time it takes for an ability to be ready to use to the champion that killed it. The Lizard Elder gives a temporary buff that gives a slow effect to the basic attacks to the champion that killed it and also allows that respective champion to deal small amounts of true damage to his or her target with basic attacks. Dividing the map in two is the river. The river has two epic monsters that are harder to kill than any other minion, including the ones in the jungle: The Baron Nashor and the Dragon. The Dragon does not give a temporary buff, but it does give gold to the team that killed it. It has an attack that slows a champion and also reduces the attack speed of a champion. The Baron Nashor has all sorts of attacks that makes it truly the "boss" of the League of Legends. The attacks range from a debuff that decreases attack damage to a debuff that reduces magic resistance, to an attack that knocks back champions attacking it and an attack that knocks champions up. When a champion kills it, it gives a temporary buff to his or her respective team that increases attack damage, ability power, health regeneration and mana regeneration. Within the entire map are brushes that instantly hide your champions. Use these to set up ambushes or traps! Without further ado, let the matches BEGIN!

With that, the announcer's voice disappeared and the gates to the Fields of Justice have opened. The scheduled summoners with selected champions enter the "randomizer" that puts them on random teams. But some summoners chose to fight with "practice" champions instead. These practice champions are not controlled by any summoner and they are rather "clones" of the champions that have their own will. The first match ever then began. After 30 min went by, the first match was completed. Neither team had experience with this arena and both teams' summoners and champions had very little coordination. They wouldn't listen to each other and each did what they thought was "correct". Some summoners couldn't make their champions listen to them at all, while other summoners just sent them on suicide missions, not thinking strategically. Examples would be they foolishly fight turrets by themselves and die in the process or try to fight an outnumbered skirmish by themselves. Arguments between the champions and summoners were common as well as arguments between the different summoners as well. In the end, the Blue team won, but only because they were more fortunate with the champions that they chose. Other matches had similar results, with either the Blue or Purple team winning, out of sheer luck.

When Garen and Katarina both were finished with their matches, they went to their waiting fields, where they set eyes upon each other. Garen kept sawing Katarina's mother's face in her, but then Katarina's face turned annoyed. "You have a problem, try hard?" Katarina yelled, having no fear of Garen. "Actually I do. How can a little kitten like you join the League?" In an instant, in turned into a quarrel with them throwing insults at each other. "Big talk coming from an overgrown APE! "Ohh, and look at you! Little miss Kitty Kat putting on her angry face!" "You wouldn't even last a second against me!" "Oh yea? I would like to see you last a second against the BIG SWORD!" They readied themselves to fight, but then two summoners seperated them. "You wanna fight? Then do it on the Fields" They scoffed and turned away, giving each other a nasty look before they left the League. A lot of commotion was startled up, with each champion there wondering who would win in a fight between the two. Garen grumbled "Still though...that's a strong resemblance..." and continued on back to Demacia. Katarina was heading back to Noxus, looking at her daggers "Father...did you have to fight such strong men too?" Even though Katarina showed no fear of Garen when they met, she was still shaking on the inside. And thus concludes the first day of the League of Legends.


Author's Note: Chapters like these will occasionally show up, where it's just a day in the League of Legends. However, it might/might not contribute to the story line itself. The main focus will still be Garen and Katarina.

Please Review and Rate. I would appreciate it very much as I'm always looking for ways to improve.
