From the Shadow Isles they came
Chapter 7
Ahri munched her food warily as she looked around in the place where the void creatures had set up a meeting, unsurprisingly it was a restaurant.
But what freaked her out about the place was the customers.
For some reason most of them where monsters, now, Ahri was no racist she loved to suck the souls out of every type of living and nonliving thing.
But, that didn't mean that she had easy time looking at them or being near them.
Next to her Sona was eating a salad, not looking up to see the pandemonium happening in front of her.
"NO YOU ARE NOT A CRAB!"
"YES I AM! How dare you say that to me?!"
"Because crabs don't walk like you walk!"
"That's a lie I walk like a crab!"
"No you do not"
"HOW DARE YOU!"
"You walk in a straight line!"
"That's how crabs walk!"
"No they do not!"
"You have never seen a crab in your life and what you're doing is clear racism against my kind, you only assume things because you don't know Jack $#%&!"
"OHHHHHHHHHH FOR DRAGONS SAKE I WILL KILL YOU!"
"COME AND TAKE ME YOU SNAKE MOTHER#$"#$##!"
And with that the Rift Herald lunged at Baron Nashor, blood and venom flying everywhere.
How they even to manage to fit inside was mystery to Ahri, but she would take a note from Sona's book and ignore them.
Was the Rift Herald actually a crab?
"But he looks more like a giant bug to me" she said as she finished her meal.
They didn't sell souls sadly, but she enjoyed the burger that they had given her.
Sona also finished her meal and smiled at Ahri.
"Yeah I know, patience, but they said they would be here an hour ago and I don't like sticking around here to long"
She leaned forward and whispered into her friend's ear.
"I think I saw the trashcan move and grow legs, which does not make feel comfortable"
Sona giggled and shook her head
"I'm not kidding I swear!"
Just then the doors of the restaurant opened and a dreadful aura was felt by everyone inside.
A giant tried to make his way inside but the door were too small for him.
He stopped trying to squeeze himself through the frame for a second and the he destroyed the door and part of the wall with all his might!
The owner of the restaurant fell to his knees, tears streaming down his greasy cheeks.
"No not him" he said in a devastated voice.
Cho'Gath had arrived.
He marched to the man behind the counter, his steps unwavering his teeth snapping with anticipation.
Cho'Gath growled as he looked at him, the poor worker felt his body go completely numb, his legs refused to work as the giant eyes locked onto him.
He almost cried when the massive jaws of the beast opened and the huge teeth made their presence know, the entire restaurant was silent waiting to see what the devourer of the void would do.
"I'll have two number nines, a number nine large, a number six with extra dip, a number seven, two number forty-fives, one with cheese, and a large soda… as my entrance I will be back to order the rest"
The poor owner cried, knowing that today he would have to close his doors thanks to Cho'Gath.
Sona didn't get it so she simply frowned, now Ahri on the other hand almost threw up at the obscene amount of food he had ordered as his entrance.
Cho'Gath walked towards them and 'took a sit'
"Hello, sorry I'm late I had to deal with something back home, but anyways I have to thank you, there is indeed someone using the void for their own needs without our consent, we the people of the void are a very protective bunch, no one should be able to do it but, here we are and the worst part of it all is that we cannot pinpoint the location with one hundred percent certainty, it's like someone is clouding our vision and I don't like it" Cho'Gath said with a growl.
Ahri gasped and Sona frowned.
"So what can we do to help?" Ahri asked.
Cho'Gath shrugged "Well if you could get someone that knows a lot about magic to help us clear the fog that does not allow us to see that would be great"
"OH! We can do that!" Ahri said excitedly, Sona nodded with a smile.
"Cool, contact Malzahar when you find the person, now if you excuse me I have to finish my order"
And with that the devourer of the Void walked back to order his full meal.
Ahri giggled as she heard the scream of the owner of the restaurant.
"Well we are on the right track, come on we have to tell the others!"
Sona nodded and walked out of the restaurant with her friend.
She briefly wondered how her other friend was doing, the one that as gloomy a bit insane and loved to play music with her.
Sona felt a spark of fear in her heart, if someone was clouding the vison of the void creatures, then what was happening with Mordekaiser?
"I hate this, I hate you, I hate you too and I hate this world so much" Hecarim said as he and his friends waited for the principal to receive them.
Mordekaiser had gotten them in trouble once again.
Apparently someone told the director of the fight, probably professor Colbert, and now they were in some deep $#%&.
Well Mordekaiser was, but he had forced them to come with him.
So now the three giant creatures were "sitting" in the waiting room, being eyed warily by the secretary.
"She's not what she seems" Thresh said out of nowhere.
"Who the pipsqueak?" Hecarim said confused.
"No the one with the green hair, she is hiding her true soul" The Warden said as his flames started to burn a bit brighter.
"Hiding her sins in plain sight, but with a good cause, her soul would make a fine addition to my collection"
The Master of Metal brought a hand to his chin.
"If she tries something funny she is all yours Thresh"
"YAAAAAAAAY!"
"Your mood swings give me whiplash" Hecarim said snorting.
"Oh, I bet you prefer the calm and quiet people, like a certain someone I know"
Hecarim glared at the warden "What are you talking about?"
"Oh you know just saying how you seem to be so fond of the Star Child"
Mordekaiser looked at thresh in disbelief "Soraka? You like Soraka?!"
"NO I DO NOT!"
"You should have seen it Morde, this big buffoon smiling and laughing like an idiot and right next to him no other than Soraka herself I think they were eating some…"
Thresh got stabbed with a spear.
"Rude"
He commented with a frown as he tried to remove himself from the wall.
"Morde why do we have to put up with this, are you not a powerful general are we and that F$%$# IDIOT over there strong enough to accomplish our goal"
"We sure are but that would ruin the plot"
"De fuk"-"What I mean is that we could certainly run this place to the ground, burn the citizens claim their souls and bathe in their blood"
"Go on go on"
"I actually have a better plan"
Hecarim raised a flaming eyebrow
"Oh and what is that?"
"In our las expedition I ripped the soul out of one of our enemies and learned many juicy details, like the fact that this country is in turmoil and that trust in the royalty has been shaken, meaning that any noble could grab the power with a well-placed lie and some dirt on the opposition"
"And why should we give a rats A$$ about all that"
"Because we have a noble on our side"
"The pipsqueak!"
"Exactly, she just need some convincing and when we have the peoples trust"
"We unleash the mist right under everyone's unsuspecting nose!"
"The mist might work here it might not, but I would prefer we don't use the strategy of the Ruined King here, what I plan will get us back to Runterra and allow us to rule this realm"
"How?"
"The void is the one that got us here there is no doubt in that, only they exist between dimensions, but we are Shadow Isles warriors we twist things to our way, so what we need is fight the energy that brought us here corrupt it and then using the souls of some of the citizens open the portal and then at long last we can have peace"
"No longer will we have to be oppressed by anyone ever again, nor killed on sight because were different than them"
"See, now we just need to be patient and intelligent about the whole thing"
Hecarim nodded and let out a sigh.
"Not bad Morde, but I hate waiting and you know that"
"Desperate to go back to the Star Child?"
"WHAT?! NO!"
"Its fine really, she is nice to us Shadow Isles denizens"
"Yeah… she is something else"
"P#$$#"
"OH COME ON LIKE YOU HAVENT FELT ANYTHING LIKE THAT!"
"Mordekaiser likes Sona, I know because he…"
Thresh was once more silenced only that this time it was by the mace of an angry Metal man.
"The maven of strings?"
"I'll cut you"
"I'm sure I'm sure"
Just then Louise stormed out of the director's office with a frown on her face.
"You're lucky that the director was so forgiving, you are only getting away with a slap on the wrist and that makes MAD HOW COME WHEN YOU SCREW UP NOTHING BAD HAPPENS BUT WHEN I DO IM THE LAUGHING STOCK!"
"It's because of your temper"
"MY WHAT; IM A RAY OF SUNSHINE B#$%&!"
"What is our punishment?" said Hecarim, fighting his urge of Neck Snapping™.
"Hmmph, you need to help around the kitchen" she said and stormed off.
"That's it? Really, slap in the wrist? More like hit by the full might of a lady bug"
Thresh nodded at his "SKULL IS ON FLAMES" buddy and looked at Mordekaiser who was in deep thought.
"She needs to be trained in order for our plans to succeed"
"Isn't she a mage?" asked Thresh confused.
"A mage in training I suppose; but I feel a dormant power in her, one that I wish to claim for myself"
"I call dibs on roasting the turkey!"
"Oh sure go ahead and ruin the mood!"
A/N: Next time, kitchen shenanigans and the training of a young mage in the dark arts of The Shadow Isles!
So yeah, romance, that's a thing.
Now; I'm not normally one to put that stuff in my stories but this time I felt like experimenting, but do not worry romance is not a main focus.
Anyways ships are still up for debate so if you feel like leaving a pairing that you would like to see, I welcome the suggestions!
Au-revoir!
