I DO NOT OWN THE FAMILIAR OF ZERO
Thank you all for reading! This story is about the child of Louise and Saito, as much as I DON'T ship them as a couple. I would appreciate constructive criticism. I have school, so my posting will be infrequent. The story will be 1st person, from many peoples perspective. Thoughts and spells will be in italic. Other languages will be in parentheses.
Serena
I sigh and look over at my familiar. My very own familiar! I feel like I am dreaming. I rub my eyes and sit down beside my bed where my familiars body is now laying. He has chiseled features, yet a gently face, that seems so relaxed in sleep. I feel myself reaching out to touch his face, but force myself not to. I can't. Not yet. I tell myself. I look at his left arm, where there is now an inch thick black band. It looks different than dads. That's for sure. I think with a slight smile. There is a knock on the door.
"Come in." I call softly.
The door swings open, emitting a light squeak. I look over and see my smiling mom step in, holding a thin, foot long black box. She quietly walks over to me, and hands it to me.
"Go on. Open it. This helped me a lot when I first summoned your father, for when he got out of line." She urges me.
I sigh to myself, and open the silver clasp on the box, then swing the lid open. Laying in a soft velvet casing, is a studded green riding crop. I pull it out of the box with a confused expression on my face, which soon clears up when I realize what I am supposed to do with it.
"Thanks." I say, with a weak smile.
My mom smiles, and is about to leave, when the man on the bed lets out a quiet groan, and opens his beautiful eyes. I nearly let out a sigh at the sight, but remember that my mother is sitting beside me. He looks over at us, his brow furrowing.
("Where the hell am I?!") He says in a loud voice.
I am about to reply when my mom pulls out her wand.
"Don't give me that attitude! Silence!" She yells, a moment before she waves her wand, causing a large explosion.
"What the hell was that for, asshat?" He demands.
"I understood you!" I yell excitedly before my mom can respond with another explosion. His eyes turn to me.
"Good for you, Busty." He says sarcastically, his eyes briefly flicking down to my chest.
"YOU PERVERT!" My mom yells, snatching the crop from my hand, and swinging it at his face in a downward blow. He reaches up, and grabs her wrist before the crop can make contact, snatches the crop, and snaps it in half.
"Don't do that." He says, waving a finger at her, before standing up.
"See you 'round." He says with an adorable smile, before patting my head. He turns and walks out of the room.
"W-what the hell!" My mom shouts. I turn and run after him.
Drake
I sigh and turn left when I leave the room, and explosive shout following me. I shrug and keep walking, then look behind me when I hear rapid footsteps. I see the cute elf-girl from before.
"What's up, pussycat?" I ask with an impish grin. The girl blushes.
"My name's Serena." She mutters, blushing.
I laugh.
"Drake. Charmed." I say, extending my hand. She looks up, and after a moments hesitation, shakes it. We keep walking.
"So, where am I?" I ask.
"You're not from here?" She asks.
I shake my head.
"Nope. I'm from a whole other planet." I say.
She sighs and starts to explain every, where I am, the social classes, and what is going on politically and economically. (Because I'm too lazy to write the whole shebang down.)
As she speaks my eyebrows climb higher and higher on my face. This is the world where the anime 'Familiar of Zero' takes place, but after Season F. I realize. Well shit! I think with a desperate groan.
"I wonder how my family is taking my disappearance." I mutter, loud enough for Serena to hear. We are now outside in one of the many courtyards. She gasps at my words.
"I'm so sorry! I had no idea!" She sobs.
After a brief moment of hesitation, I gently wrap my arms around her shaking body.
"It's ok. There's no way you could have known, and I came here of my own volition." I say softly.
She nods against my chest, her arms having snaked around my waist. I bend down and briefly brush my lips across the top of her head. I feel her stiffen at my actions, and I laugh slightly, releasing her.
"Lets go." I say, poking her nose.
She looks at me with her grass green eyes. I smirk slightly at her flushed cheeks, and suddenly feel a surge of protectiveness. Damn familiar bond, messing with my thoughts and emotions. I thing angrily, quickly looking away from her. We walk under an arch into another courtyard, where a girl with a striking resemblance to Kirche is practicing fire magic, a small flaming bat fluttering around her.
"That's Kariana von Zerbst." Serena tells me. I nod.
"Fun." I mutter, watching her cast.
I focus on her exact movements and words, then suddenly my left bicep burns, exactly where the black band is. Part of it glows, and a small, shimmering red and orange band appears inside of it.
"Odd." Serena and I say at the exact same time.
I stick out my finger and mimic Kariana's actions, and a gout of golden-red flame shoots out of my finger.
"Awesome!" I yell, feeling a sudden drop in strength.
"What the hell? How did you do that?" Serena demands.
"No idea, what so ever." I say, a moment before I black out.
Not again.
