Own nothing except OC, League of Legends is from Riot, on with the story!

Chapter 1. Ionia

From all the places in Runaterra, Ionia had so far always been Rosark favorite, the island natural beauty with tall mountains, tranquil rivers and the ancient forests made it an incredible place that had life in every stone, while walking on the road to the Hirana Monastery.

The Hirana Monastery, the home of the monks who delved to the deepest depths of spirituality, they look for the personal harmony within one 'self, Lee sin The Blind Monk had taken Udyr to the monastery in hopes for him to find peace, to find himself as he was once lost, so much has changed since those days.

He didn't really knew if the spirit walker was there, but he thought that of all places on Ionia, the monastery was the one with the most chance of holding the Spirit Walker, he recalled the old times, he had been on the judgement when Udyr was to join the league, thinking it back, he in fact was quite old, he had seen the majority of the champions when they joined the league so long ago.

Lost in his thought he didn't notice the monkey in front of him. He clashed and fell on his back, the monkey looked behind at the sudden object that clashed, and he barely chuckled noticing the man on the floor, Wukong the Monkey King helped him get up.

-"There you go". The monkey lifted him as if he was but a little twig on the floor; Rosark looked him and nodded thanks to him. –"Thanks Monkey King, by chance you know where I can find the Spirit Walker?" the monkey was thinking while scratching his back with his staff, realization hit him and shouted –"Master! Someone is looking for the monk!" at this he left looking for his master while taking the summoner by the arm, almost ripping it in the process; the Monkey King Strength was no joke.

Master Yi, he was on meditation and sighed when he heard the shout of his pupil, he felt another presence near the monkey, something familiar, almost old, someone he knew, once the monkey and the man had come to his sight he adjusted the lenses of his helmet and saw the familiar face of the presence he had felt.

-" Ah, summoner Rosark, is weird for you to visit Ionia, what has brought you here" The lenses of the Wuju Bladesman adjusted themselves while he tried to stand straight, Rosark answered while trying to get the air back in his lungs, he was able to say a few words though –" Spirit… Walker…. Where?" At this show of lack of physical ability Yi chuckled.

-"Same as ever Rosark, I thought you would have gotten a bit more condition, you are getting old" the word "old" stung Rosark deeply as everyone seemed to be saying it, he didn't looked that old, in fact he looked young, but as a summoner that had been so long the term might have been the appropriate.

-"Somethings don't really change Yi" with the air back on his lungs he could easily keep up the conversation, though the Wuju bladesman seemed to indicate something near him. –"Wuju… pass me that bottle?" Silence fell on the air, as if the whole world had decided to stand still for that, even the monkey faking as if his master hadn't said that.

-"As I said before, somethings don't really change." He said while passing Yi the bottle with water, Yi nodded in thanks and after drinking a bit spoke –"The Spirit Walker is not here though, he is on the Lotus Garden, in the Placidium, and he went to meditate, so he won't be on the Monastery, at least not today" Yi finished speaking and Rosark sighed, he was hoping to avoid the Placidium, as it was on the capital he didn't liked the idea of visiting the sacred garden that was destined for meditation.

-"Thanks Yi, I shall be on my way then, thanks to you too Wukong" the monkey chuckled saying –"No worries old man" what is with people calling him old? The thoughts were interrupted by the bladesman –"Do me a favor friend, Wuju… tell Karma I send my salutes?" silence once again fell –"I will Yi, and seriously, is not funny."

The Placidium, the heart of the city-state, Rosark would have given anything right there to avoid having to enter, he didn't liked crowds, he didn't liked the fact that half Ionia knew him, as a summoner with an affiliation to Ionia, pretty much everyone in the capital had seen him or heard his name, at first it felt good to be seen as an star, but with the lose streak, this meant they would look at him with eyes of hatred.

Forget that, they were never that expressing of hate, but they would obviously show him the disappointment of his recent actions, he was thinking maybe he could avoid the garden, wait for Udyr… but time wasn't really an ally this time, he started the walk to the garden.

As he was walking his fear was made true, people spoke of him silently, but it was obvious by the stares, one of the little voices is what actually stung him "Isn't he an old summoner? He should leave the league" Old, Old, Old, what is with people calling him Old!

He made it to the garden, alive, at least physically he wasn't hurting, but inside he surely felt that the walk had taken a toll. In the peaceful garden he found the spirit walker in meditation, just as he was making his way, a hand on his arm stopped him; it was a slender hand he knew very well. A soft voice spoke.

-"You know what they say… Karma always catches up to you."

Why most the champions jokes have to be so….sad?

-"Hello to you too Karma, you and Yi make those jokes together? He sends his salutes." Karma nodded in acknowledgement to him, she smiled while indicating a place for them to sit. She got on meditation position while he simply left himself fall on the floor. Karma made a noise to make him understand he had to sit properly.

-"This is not the league garden, you can't throw yourself to the floor, sit properly Rosark." He wasn't really on the mood but he obeyed, not without replying –"Sure boss." At his childish act the Enlightened One chuckled. –"I'm glad to see you are still the same." Her voice changed to one of sadness –"After all that lose streak you got… it was hard to see you fall so much." He only nodded, at least she understood he didn't really was going to explain, still, he felt he owed her at least that.

-"They are thinking of retiring me from the institute, if I don't show results in less than a month, I'm out, I will have to check other job choices." He sighed, he didn't really knew much aside from being a summoner, he was a good blacksmith though, maybe if all failed he could be one.

-"I thought that, I must say I suspected that, but that doesn't explain why you came to Ionia, I doubt you came to give me a visit for" Her speech was interrupted by his hand in front of her –"Don't you dare say "old" I have heard it enough for today" the Enlightened just nodded and continued where she left –"I don't think you just came to see me, are you looking for the Spirit Walker?"

He nodded in response and Karma sighed –"He is the one who took your recent fall the worst, he can't believe you would fall so much, after all you two used to be a great team." Karma smiled. Her smile was contagious as he smiled too, Udyr and he had been a great team in the past, he had the knowledge, Udyr had the instinct of the wild, and they were unstoppable back then.

-"What happened to you guys?" Karma words broke the memory train, and he felt a bit of guilt on his chest. –"Freljord happened" Back then Udyr decided he had to help on Freljord against the Ice Witch, he had decided he wouldn't get involved in the problems with the Freljord, he stated they were too much of a bother, at this Udyr snapped, he remembered the look on his eyes, his friend had betrayed him.

-"I failed as his friend; I should have gotten involved…" Karma just nodded and said –"Sae Eleisa Tera Vi Phyla…" Discover the meaning of tranquility…. The Enlightened one had a way with words.

-"I need to speak to him, the institute is thinking of taking champions out of the league." At this Karma seemed surprised but didn't say anything. –"Udyr is the first subject on that; I came to tell him that if we both show results the League won't have reasons for taking us out."

Karma nodded, and with her hand gestured to the place where Udyr was meditating. He walked the steps to the place on the garden, he could feel Karma looking at him, wishing him luck maybe. He decided he had to break the Spirit Walker meditation –"Hey" simple, to the point, the standard salute between them, Udyr just grunted in response.

-"Nice to see you too, got a minute?" Udyr looked at him, he wasn't sure what was inside those eyes that always seemed to have beast inside –"What do you want…Summoner." Never, had he called him Summoner, hatred ran deep. –"I came to warn you, if you don't show results the League will take you out" Udyr gaze kept unwavering as if asking "So?" –"I refuse on the fact they take you out, you are not an object they can just toss out Udyr" He chuckled dryly –"You sure didn't seemed to care when my home was being attacked by the Ice Witch"

-"No, in fact I didn't care, truth be told I should have cared, but that's not the point Udyr, the point is I need you to help me, so will you help me?"

The spirit walker was in thought and answered

-"No"

Things aren't going to be easy for our friend, what will happen with Udyr and Rosark? Does Karma and Yi make bad jokes together? Why everyone uses the word Old so much? Hope you like it and thanks for reading.
