In an outskirts there is a monastery where a small group of people was watching a conflict going on.
"They must pull through!" Said a guy with Blonde hair.
"They will, I know it" Said an old bald guy with a white beard, a wooden staff and he is wearing a white robe. He is also accompanied by a blue mechanical owl who is also watching what is going on.
What they are witnessing is a battle with Two mechanical giants battling a Gigantic Dark Armored Warrior. The dark armored Warriors face was showing being a pale face but with facial hair and no pupils.
"You all have been a Nuisance for so long and now finally you all will die!" The Dark Armored Warrior said
The two mechanical beings just looked on because inside both of them were people wearing colored spandex and Helmets and they are controlling the giants. Three on one and Five on another.
"We didn't get here just so we can die!" Said a female in the blue spandex and Helmet.
"We are here for a new future of Fodlan to happen! A new one where we can have peace and Fodlan can be united as one! That peace will arrive after we have finally Defeated you!" Said the determined female in blue
"That's right!" Said the male in the red spandex and Helmet. "We're not going to give up! We will keep fighting for the safety of Everyone!" The boy said.
"Everyone" The male in the green spandex and helmet (Who is also in the front) said. "Give everything that you got!" The guy in green commanded.
"RIGHT!" The other seven responded.
And soon they made both the mechanical beings walk, both with swords as they walks towards the Dark Armored Warrior who also has a sword.
The old man at the monastery watched on along with the rest of the group
"The New Era of Fodlan must become a reality. Nitro Forces you must win!"
*Few Months Earlier*
Garreg Mach Monastery a place for which students learn in the art of combat and become skilled Warriors.
One of those Students is Ashe Ubert who is determined to become a knight and help out people. But right now he is still down over the fact that the man that adopted him and his little brother and sister tried to take refuge and he was forced to kill him. He knew that he had to but it still hurt and knowing the western church had some involvement angered him and people took notice of that one of them being...
Marianne Von Edmund noticed and she didn't really knew what to say since she didn't know Ashe that well. Granted she doesn't know everybody all that well still. She tries but she doesn't want to be a burden to anyone. She always goes to the cathedral and pray that the goddess will take her. In the couple of weeks People do try to talk to her and one of those people is...
Professor Byleth Eisner is the youngest professor at the Academy. Infact he is at the same age range as his students which was very bizarre. He chose to teach the Blue Lion house which is led by the House leader named Dimitri. Byleths time at the monastery has been very interesting cause just recently he has been able to wield a Legendary Sword Known as The Sword Of The Creator which has been entrusted by Archbishop Rhea. When he's not teaching he walks around the monastery doing tasks and talking to the Students, one of the being...
Bernadetta Von Varley spends most of her time in her room, she doesn't really want to fight and but was brought to the monastery from her mother. She doesn't have any confidence during battle and freaks out when someone tries to speak with her. She also attempts to hide from certain people that legitimately scare her to death, one being...
Felix Hugo Fraldarius aims to become a strong swordsman and he always challenges any strong people to a duel one of them being his professor. He also has a sharp tongue that doesn't sit well with some people
Right now it is a Satutday which means students will get to either train, go out or just hang around. Byleth was just walking around the monastery, when he got to the entrance hall, he was greeted by some Knights.
"Ah professor you came in time. We would like for you and you're class to come join us on a mission that we're heading off too." Said one of the knights.
"A mission? And why do you need my class to join you? Are you low on troops at the moment?" Byleth asked.
"Actually yes. The other knights have their own mission right now so we are low on troops."
"And what is this mission specifically?" Byleth questioned.
"You see we just recently discovered an old abandoned chapel and The Archbishop was intrigued by it so we were assigned to explore it. Professor you still have eight students you can ask for two more students to assist us just in case."
"Very well I'll inform my class and ask two more students to join in." Byleth responded.
"Thank you" The knight said as they did a bow.
Soon after that Byleth knew who to get first because this students needs to get out more.
"What!? You want me to join you and your class to explore a chapel?!" Replied Bernadetta who was talking through the door with Byleth.
"Why yes that is why." Responded Byleth.
"Ummmmm sorry but I can't go." Replied Bernadetta.
"Hm very well then. I guess you don't want a cake then after we complete the mission?" Byleth said.
"CAKE!?" Bernadetta said through the door
Byleth heard some shuffling around and then the door opened with Bernadetta coming out of her room with her bow and arrows.
"*sigh* fine you win." Bernadetta said.
"I promise I will give you a cake after the mission." Byleth reassured.
"I hope."
Byleth and Bernadetta walked together to the Blue Lion classroom. Soon enough they made it in.
"I still to need ask one more person. I'll be back shortly." Byleth said as he left.
Bernadetta just watched Byleth leave and when he was out of sight She Turned around to look at the Classroom. But when she turned around she saw all The Blue Lion students looking at her.
"AH!" Bernadetta then jumped behind a chair shielding her from the other students.
"Bernadetta?" Dimitri said surprised by the choice.
"Hmph I wonder why the professor went out of his way to ask you for assistance." Felix said.
"FELIX!" Ingrid yelled to Felix
"Well I'm pretty sure the professor made the right decision of choosing her to help us out, along with another student. Hmm I wonder who the other one could be?" Ashe said.
Byleth had a thought on who will be the other student to help out. So he went to the stables to check and thankfully She was there.
"Marianne." Byleth called out
"Hm? Oh professor...um did you come to see the horses again?" Marianne asked.
"No, I need to ask you a favor." Byleth said.
"A favor?"
"I need you to assist my class on a mission."
"Me? Assist your...class? I-I don't know if I can be of any help." Marianne said looking down.
"But you could actually be really useful out there if we ever get attacked. You can be a great help." Byleth said.
"Y-you really think so?" Marianne asked and Byleth replied with a nod. "Well if you say so...I'll do it."
"Good, follow me then." Byleth said as he and Marianne walked towards the Blue Lion house.
Once they entered The Blue Lion students looked at them, more so looked at the other recruit.
"Oh Marianne." Ashe said
Marianne just looked down not use to a lot of people staring at her. "Uh...hi"
"Oh professor you're back!" Bernadetta said standing up after crouching down behind the chair.
Byleth didn't even want to know so with that, it is time. Byleth told everyone on what the mission is about.
"A recently discovered chapel? How strange" Ashe said intrigued.
"Tsk I just hope there are strong opponents to face when we get their." Felix said.
"The knights are probably waiting for us, let's go professor." Said Dimitri.
Byleth nodded in agreement.
And with that the group walked out of the Classroom and met up with the Knights.
"Good! It's time to go!"
And with that they all left the Monastery and began walking towards the chapel. Some conversations took place as they walked just so it couldn't be some awkward silence. Bernadetta was walking behind Byleth so that she can cover fire in case they get attacked and not use him as a shield at all.
"Hey Felix!"
Felix looked at Annette who was the one who said his name.
"What are you excited for when we get to the chapel?" Annette asked.
"Easy I'm excited to face some strong enemies when we get there." Felix responded.
"Well what else is exciting of you forget that you saw me singing back at the greenhouse" Said Annette
"I can't." Replied Felix.
"But why!?"
"It's stuck in my brain now and I can't just get rid of it" Felix said.
"Dang it! I'll find a way to make you foeget!" Annette said as she walked to Mercedes
Felix just looked at Annette for few more seconds before concentrating on the Path.
Marianne was behind everybody not engaging in any conversation with anybody.
"Uh hi."
Marianne looked up and saw that it was Ashe who greeted her.
"Um...hi." Marianne responded
"So um, what do you expect when we go to the chapel?"
"I...don't know. But why are you talking to me?"
"Oh well I saw that you weren't talking to nobody so I thought maybe I can talk to you."
"Oh. You didn't need to do that, really."
"Well I also thought that I can get to know you better." Responded Ashe.
Mariannes eyes widened at that. "R-Really?" Marianne said surprised.
"Of course!" Ashe responded
Soon after that the group arrived at the chapel, it was large and surprisingly it was still standing g and not decaying.
"This almost looks like it's brand new." Dimitri said.
"I'm just wondering how this place was just recently found even though it looks like it's been intact" Said Sylvain
"That is strange indeed" Said Mercedes
The knights opened up the door and soon every one entered the chapel. One thing they noticed was that there were holes on the roof of the chapel which protruded sunlight giving the chapel some light inside.
"So it's mildly damaged but it makes me wonder how old this really is" Dimitri wondered
Annette looked around until she saw something. "AH! I SEE SOMETHING IN FRONT OF US!"
"Enemies?" Felix said as he and everyone else looked straight forward
Everyone took a closer look and realized that it was not enemies.
"They're statues of Animals?" Said Marianne
And indeed in the center of the chapel were eight Animal statues consisting of a Tiger, Falcon, Snake, Bear, Wolf, Dragon, Elephant and Hawk.
"Why would there be random animal statues in an abandoned chapel? This all doesn't make sense." Ingrid said.
The group walked towards the animal statues. Bernadetta looked at the Bear amazed. Byleth for some reason was intrigued by the Snake. Felix just made eye contact with the Wolf Statue, Marianne found the Falcon beautiful and Ashe walked towards the tiger, he kneeled and reached out to touch the head of the tiger Statue.
"Hold Ashe don't touch it!" Dimitri suddenly said.
"Huh?" Ashe said as he already touched the head of the tiger statue
And nothing happened at all.
"Sorry it's just we don't know if this place has traps." Dimitri said.
"Ah, I apologize your highness." Ashe said.
"It seems there isn't anything dangerous here. We can explore around the chapel." One of the knights said.
Marianne walked towards a corridor, Ashe saw this and he decided to follow her.
"I'm just gonna have some alone time, tell me when we're leaving." Bernadetta said as she walked towards the same corridor Ashe and Marianne went through but she didn't know that because she wasn't looking.
Byleth saw all three students go to that corridor and he was wondering why they are all going that way so he decides to follow them.
"What are you doing?" Felix suddenly said.
"I saw three people going in this direction. Want to join me?" Said Byleth
"Hmph Fine. Only because I have nothing else better to do here." Responded Felix.
Annette just stayed in the center of the Chapel looking at the Dragon Statue.
"I have no idea why I'm very intrigued by this Dragon statue." Annette said.
Going back to Marianne as she was walking she saw another room where sunlight was protruding.
"Marianne."
Marianne turned around and saw Ashe walking towards.
"Oh, you followed me?"
"I was curious on where you were going" Ashe responded
"I just wanted to walk around and to see if there were other animal statues"
"Ah, can I join you?"
"Um...sure if you want. I was heading to the room where sunlight is peaking out."
"Oh then let's go together then"
Soon they walked together towards the room. Once they arrived Marianne took a look into the room and soon after Ashe heard a big gasp coming from her and he saw Marianne looking straight in the room her eyes wide and clasping her mouth with both hands.
"What happened." Ashe said as he looked straight in the room as well and soon he now knows why Marianne gasped. "Oh...Oh No."
The room they looked in had either Armored or robed skeletons on the ground. The skeletons looked like they were a century old.
"Just how old really is this place?" Ashe said as he hesitantly entered the room.
Marianne entered soon after. They just looked around the room seeing all of these skeletons together. Both of them thinking what happened here that could've caused this.
"Ashe look at the Armored ones." Marianne said. "The armor they are wearing...it does not look like armor that knights of today wear. This is more advanced armor."
"But how can that be?" Ashe said wondering.
Out of the corner of his eye something caught Ashes attention. He looked down on the floor and saw what looked like a small crystal covered in dust. So he walks towards it. He then kneeled down and grabbed thw crystal and he wiped off the dust showing the Crystal's true color being blue.
We go to Bernadetta who was wondering the corridor and she noticed the same room which Ashe and Marianne are in.
"Oh sunlight! Maybe I can spend the rest of my time in there for a while."
Once Bernadetta got in front of the room She saw Ashe and Marianne along with the Skeletons.
"AH"
Both Ashe and Marianne turned around by surprise and saw Bernadetta.
"Bernadetta? What are you doing here?" Ashe questioned.
"I just wanted to find some peace and quiet while we're here! A-Are those Skeletons!" Bernadetta said frightened
"What's going on here?" Said Byleth who suddenly appeared along with Felix.
"AH!" Bernadetta yelled again by surprise causing her to enter the room.
Byleth and Felix entered the room as well looking at the Skeletons.
"Just what is going on?" Byleth said again.
"I can explain everything" Ashe said.
As Ashe was about to explain what was going on Bernadetta was the one to look and see that the blue crystal he was holding began to glow.
"U-Uh Ashe the crystal is glowing!" Bernadetta said.
Ashe looked at the crystal he was holding and it was indeed glowing. Ashe dropped the crystal because of the surprised factor but soon after the ground began to shake.
"AH EARTHQUAKE!" Bernadetta yelled out.
The glowing blue crystal begam to float.
In the central Chapel where Annette was the ground was also shaking as well.
"WHAT IS HAPPENING!? WHY DID THIS RANDOMLY START!?" Annette yelled out.
If this is happening here then the others are experiencing the same thing.
Suddenly the eyes of The Tiger, Falcon, Snake, Bear and Wolf statues began to glow blue. Annette saw this and she gasped by surprise. She then looked at The Dragon Statue and suddenly the eyes of the Dragon Statue flashed at Annette and after that Annette collapsed to the ground.
Suddenly a ray of light in the center of the chapel shooted out of the roof and into the sky
Back with Byleth and the others they all saw that the glowing crystal was floating soon it shot a laser at Ashe hitting him and soon enough he disappeared.
"ASHE!" Marianne yelled out but soon the crystal shot at her making a direct hit on her and soon she disappeared as well.
"NO NO NO NO THIS CAN NOT BE HAPPENING!" Bernadetta yelled out
Felix brought out his sword but as he brought it out the crystal shot and made a direct hit on him making him disappear as well. Soon after Byleth got hit and disappeared as well.
"Professor!" Bernadetta yelled
She then looked up at the crystal and she tried to run away but the crystal would hit her as well and she disappeared.
Once they were all gone the Blue crystal disappeared as well.
We go to a Dark Cave that had the faintest of light soon enough a small light emerged and soon after a puff of smoke appeared and out of it was Ashe.
"AH!" Ashe yelled as he fell to the floor.
Soon he stood up and looked around the Dark cave area.
"Am I...dead?" He wondered
Ashe looked up as he saw a light above him and soon a puff a smoke arrived and out of it was Marianne who gasped as she fell. Ashe ran up to her and soon she landed on top of him knocking them to the floor.
"Oh my God Ashe! I'm sorry!"
"No, no its ok." Ashe said as he got up from the floor a second time.
Soon enough another light appeared and then another puff of Smoke. Coming out of it was Felix, He soon landed on his feet as he looked at Ashe and Marianne.
"What is going on?" Felix said as he put his sword back in the scabbard.
Soon enough the exact same thing happened again this time with Byleth and just like Felix he landed on his feet. He took a look around saw the other three.
The final light and puff of smoke happened and the final person to fall was Bernadetta.
"AAAAAAAH!"
She was caught by Byleth in the bridal position, soon after he set her on the ground. Byleth looked at the other three.
"Is everyone okay?" Byleth asked.
"Everyone looks okay, I'm just wondering is what the hell just happened." Responded Felix.
"First we all happened to meet in one room, soon a blue crystal began to glow which caused a God damn Earthquake, then the crystal shot something which can make a person disappear and then the same people are now in this weird dark cave place." Felix finished saying.
'He is right, but I wonder why that crystal brought us here' Said Sothis who is in Byleths head.
"FINALLY YOU'RE HERE!" Said a new voice.
"WHO WAS THAT!?" yelled Bernadetta.
"I'm I'm front of you!" The New voice said.
The group of five looked straight but the didn't see anyone.
"Look down"
The Group of five looked down and in front of them was a Small Blue Mechanical Owl.
"Welcome Chosen Ones!" The mechanical owl said.
And now all five were dumb founded. This small mechanical owl is talking to them right now.
"Y-You're a mechanical Owl. Are you alive?" Said Marianne.
"Of course I'm alive I'm talking to you right now am I?" The mechanical owl said.
"Wait, what do you mean by Chosen Ones?" Ashe said.
The mechanical owl flapped it's wing and began to fly until it was standing on a rock.
"You may call me Crypto and welcome to the command base!"
The rock crypto was standing on glowed so bright that the group of five covered their eyes. Once the glowing stopped the group of five looked and saw the cave got more brighter much more mechanical things going on and multiple colored lights.
"What? All of this wasn't here 10 seconds ago!" Ashe said flabbergasted.
"Just what is happening Crypto? Why are we here?" Byleth Asked.
"That's for Tyzon to explain" Replied Crypto
"Indeed Crypto!" Said another new voice.
The group of five turned their attention to the new voice and they saw an old bald man with a white beard and wearing white robes, he is also carrying a staff..
"Welcome Chosen Warriors, I am Tyzon"
