As the final group came to the square they were met the with other biragge of servants and masters. Each master very young, sickeningly so.
"Welcome, welcome," a busty red haired woman who looked like Tristan's sister called to them. Next to her was a young girl in a white wedding dress and a horn atop her head, and a stone faced girl with glowing clothes.
"I am Rider Class, Boudica! And with me is Berserker Class Frankenstein," she said.
"Queen Boudica," Gawain yelled. "The mother of Brittina and the Warrior Queen of the Celts?!"
"That's me," she chuckled. "With me is my lovely master Shelke Rui!"
"I am not your master," she spoke in monotone, but their was annoyance and expasteration in her tone.
"As you can see," Boudica continued without a hitch. "We have all been summoned to fight a evil that threatens the world each of your masters reside in! Our mission is to find whoever wants such a thing and destroy them."
"Easier said than done, we can't even get a reading on their magical energy," Edmond said, his body without his signature coat. It was currently being used as a pillow and Jeanne's cloak was being used a a blanket for Edmond's young master.
"When we came here nearly three years ago, we managed to trace it to this town, but haven't been able to pick it up since."
"You've been here for three years," Astolfo squawked, looking at them in shock.
"Yes, and in that time we have traveled all over the land and have yet to find anything," Shelke spoke up, her face morphed into a frown.
"Uuugh. Uh," Frankenstein garbled and Boudica nodded.
"She said that it's be hard traveling all over and not finding a single trace of the magical energy that we first felt here," Boudica translated.
"She has no vocal functions," Paracelsus asked, tentatively coming forward. Frankenstein growled, summoning her weapon which crackled with electricity. "Forgive me, I did not mean to offend you," he backed away.
"Ahh, she's not good with scientists, so please do keep your curiosity under control," Boudica asked and Paracelsus nodded.
"So," Henry began. "What now?"
"Servants," Boudica began, all of them standing at attention. She really was a queen of legend. "I need all of you within the old town hall. OUr masters will stay in the building next, which is connected by a hallway.
"Very well," they all said, their masters looking around uncomfortably. As they walked through all old, decerpant town, the young master felt something was off in it's stillness and silence.
"Here we go," Boudica announced. "The Town Hall!"
It was red brick and peeling, the wood on the porch was rotten and moldy. Files swarmed around it and that made everyone aside from the three who lived in the town felt anxious to enter.
"It's better on the inside," Shelke said, ignoring the smell and entering. Frankenstein and Boudica followed, waiting for the others to enter. Edmond sighed hoisting his master to a more comfortable position on his back, he walked over and entered the building. One by one every master and servant entered, surprised by what they were greeted with.
"Wow," Marlene gasped. All sparkling clean and very expensive.
"Darlings," Boudica sang. "This room has food and blankets; a nice fire is on as well."
"Thanks," Denzel said, grabbing Marlene's and Kytes hands before walking in behind Shelke. Hikari, Ceodroe and Charlotte went in, Ceodroe carrying the still sleeping girl. Edmond watched with untrusting eyes as they disappeared inside, turning his attention to Boudica who gave hims a soft knowing smile. Hmphing he turned away, not wanting the others to see his blush.
"Well, shall we began," Boudica asked, looking around expectantly at the Heroic Spirits.
"What's going on?"
WITH THE MASTERS
"Wow, I can't believe that, you Kingdom was overrun like Kytes," Marlene asked, looking at Iris with sad eyes.
"Yeah," She sighed. "Noctis was able to get rid of the man, but the fact that almost the whole world was destroyed. We have a lot ot get done and that's why I want to get back."
"Our world faced a similar problem, but Queen Ashe is making good relations with other kingdoms," She smiled.
"What about you, your friends defeated and Evil Emperor who wanted world domination," They turned and a uncomfortable looking Hikari. He simply nodded and turning away, a massive blush on dusted on his cheeks.
"And an evil clown wanted to destroy your world," Denzel looked at a still dazed Charlotte. "And your world was nearly taken over by a person from the moon, which your father is half of it and your uncle was under the bad moon guy's control and tried to help annihilate the humans."
"Yes, you managed to understand quite well," Ceodroe said.
"We have been through alot in our world," Marlene sighed. "It would be a while to explain it all."
"Try to shorten it," Shelke intervened and they nodded.
"Well-"
20 MINUTES LATER
"And then the Remnants of Sephiroth were defeated and everything is back to normal now," Marlene finished, staring at the shell shocked masters.
"And your planet still stand," Ceodroe asked.
"Yes, and we hope that's the end of Shin-Ra's reign," Dezel huffed.
"I am from the same world of Denzel and Marlene, part of the Deepground programm of Shin-Ra to summon forth Omega ad find the promised land of endless mako. Our plan of action has yet to be put into mostion," Shelke admitted, looking at the two with concerned eyes.
"Their will be another attack and plan to end our world," they gasped. Shelke nodded and spoke up.
"With me being here and discovering the identities of both my Heroic Spirits, I began to see what was wrong an hope to be able to stop them before they can go through with their plan," she spoke earnestly, eyes shining with determination.
"What do you mean by discovered the identities," Marlene asked.
"Before Queen Boudicca was Queen Boudicca she resided in our world. As the older sister of Professor Hojo."
"WHAT!"
Originally known as Bernita Hojo she was seven years older than the mad scientist, she was far more humane and sweet than her little brother. With no interest in experiments and the 'Ancients' she went to Shin-Ra for a secretary position, with her brother who was shadowing for his job as a scientist.
At the age of 22, she suddenly disappeared, along with her husband-fellow scientist by the name of Alphonse Frankenstein, without a single trace. Many people suspected her deranged brother, but he was too distraught to be the kidnapper. He searched for 3 years before giving up realizing that she was never going to be found.
She was not dead in fact, but transported to young Britannia, in which she was crowned Queen. Her husband killed in an accident while trying to flee. She ruled fairly and justly, until her kingdom was invaded by Emperor Nero's troop. Leading a revolt she tried and failed to keep the romans out, she died at 31 years of age. Known as a hero of Britain she was turned into the Rider Class Heroic Spirit.
"She hasn't tried anything," Marlene asked, looking at the door suspiciously.
"No, she and her granddaughter have been very kind to me, and have answered all my question," Shelke assured them.
"Granddaughter," Hikari asked.
"The girl with the horn and bolts," she told them.
"How?"
Frankenstein. A monster that was created by her son Vincent. When he showed interest in creating the perfect human beings, "Adam and Eve" and expressed a desire to do experimentation in order to figure out how did the rift between mother and son begin.
Going forward in time he landed in Industrial England and began research for the perfect human, creating Eve first, in order for her to give birth to Adam. When it was done and he knew that his mother would be proud, did he realized he had created a monster. Something with no emotions and no soul, but he was wrong. Their was emotions and a soul, he needed to teach her; but he ignored it calling her a monster and abomination. He ran, while all she wanted was another like her, but he ran and she killed all that was precious too him. He ran and she pursued, wanting a mate; he ran and burned. She ran and she burned. All while wanting a mate.
"Why," Denzel murmured.
"Who knows, but they do wish for this evil to be defeated and Boudicca has a wish for me that I promise to fullfill. It's my duty as her 2nd hand," Shelke said, her voice determined and firm.
"She must have great faith and trust within you if she mad you her 2nd hand," Ceodroe said, looking at her with a steely look.
"She's like a mother to me, and what child would betray their mother," Shelke challenged. Ceodroe grinned and backed off.
So what do you think of my special surprise? Like the backstory? Comments are welcome. Any ideas as to what is to happen next?
