Chapter 7
Waking up from his sleep he looked around at his surroundings. Stretching his arms up in the air he looked over at Ahri who was reading a magazine. "How long was I asleep?" Galven asked as he yawned.
"3 hours" Ahri replied softly. Quietly she put the magazine back into the chair pocket and leaned back on her chair.
Looking at Ahri, he could tell she was uncomfortable from the position on her chair. Slowly he wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her in. Resting her head on his shoulder she put a hand on his chest and slowly fell asleep. Listening to Ahri's soft breaths her hand fell off of his chest which amused him. Tracing his hand he pulled some of her hair behind her ear. Wait a minute… she has 4 ears? Galven thought to himself as he traced his finger over her cheek. Falling in sync with her breathing he felt his eyes starting to get heavy. Slowly he leaned his head on hers and let sleep overtake him.
About 2 hours later when Ahri and Galven fell asleep, Ahri's ear twitched which tickled Galven's nose. Raising his head he looked out of the window, there was woods surrounding them as the train moved along. Right as Galven was going to stretch his back he realized it would wake Ahri up. Slowly he whispered "Ahri" in her ear. Stirring Slightly she lifted her head and was greeted by Galven's green eyes glaring at her. Realizing she was laying on Galven she tried to sit up but Galven said "it's fine." Slowly she cuddled up to Galven, once again Galven wrapped his arms around her.
"How long was I asleep?" Ahri wearily asked.
"I don't know I fell asleep to." Galven said quietly to Ahri. Slowly Galven stretched his legs trying not to disturb Ahri.
"G-Galven" Ahri said anxiously.
"Hmm?" Galven replied looking at her with his handsome face.
"Do you l-like me?" Ahri asked anxiously while looking away from him.
"Yeah of c-" Galven was cut off when suddenly Ahri reached up with her hands and pulled him into a hug. "Ahri are you alright?" Galven asked as he rubbed her back.
"I just had a bad dream." Ahri said while crying into his shoulder.
Slowly Ahri pulled away and look at him with her puffy gold eyes. "What was it about?" Galven asked as he used his thumb to take a tear off of her check.
"About my past, when I killed a man he called me a worthless use of life." Ahri exclaimed while crying.
Quickly Galven wrapped her into a hug again and whispered in her ear "you're not worthless Ahri hell, you're the sweetest person I have ever met."
Ahri pulled her head out of the crook of his neck and looked into his green eyes. Slowly she eased her face forward. Softly their lips touched. It was a soft and amazing. To Galven he was enjoying it, she tasted sweet and he was surprised he got to kiss someone this beautiful for his first kiss. Realizing what she just did she quickly pulled away and stood up. "I-I'm sorry" she said, Right as she was about to walk away Galven grabbed her delicate hand and pulled her in once more. Swiftly he pulled her in for another kiss which she gladly accepted. Although this time she moaned in his mouth which made it even more awkward.
Pulling back Galven wrapped his arms around her and they just sat like that for a while, just enjoying each others company. With a flushed face Ahri asked "y-you liked that?"
Hearing Galven laugh he bent down and pecked her on the check. "Yeah, I did." He said while smiling at her. Suddenly they felt the train start to slow down, almost like the wheels where scratching against the rails. Suddenly they heard a name over the intercom say "We are here, please remember all of your things and thank you for riding with us." Grabbing his bag Galven stood up and stretched his weary legs, quickly glancing at Ahri she was still blushing with a small smile on her face. Following the people that were leaving the train he finally got off and looked ahead of them.
"Holly Shit" Galven said exasperated at the look of the institute of war. With 2 stair cases following to the top there was 2 pillars with crystals floating in the air. On the top of the hill was a huge purple/blue building that had a huge door. With pillars holding the roof of the building it was huge. "Jeez this building is huge." Galven said in astonishment. Slowly walking up the staircase there were 2 guards standing at the entrance, as they got closer one
of the guards asked "what is your reason for being here?" He asked politely.
This time Ahri spoke up "we wanna join the league."
Silently the guard let out a sigh and let them in. assuming they get a lot of people who want to join and they probably don't make it. Walking around the institute following signs to find someone to talk to. Upon finding a woman at a desk who was talking to a man who looked like a outlaw. He had a double barrel shotgun in his right hand and a cigar puffing out of his mouth.
"Hey Ahri just wait for me I will talk to the woman at the desk." Galven said as he walked up to the desk.
Breaking her conversation with the man at the desk she asked Galven "what can I do for you?"
"That woman named Ahri over there and I want to join the league of legends." Galven said as he pointed at Ahri.
Right as the woman was about to say something the man next to him said "good luck with that."
"Just ignore Graves, anyways every time we get new people who want to join the league they have to talk to the high summoner. Most of the time the people who want to join either aren't strong enough or fail at their judgement. But follow me I will bring you to him." The woman said happily. Quickly she walked out of the desk and started walking away.
"C'mon Ahri let's go." Galven said as he pulled her with him. After about 3 minutes of walking they reached a room with a huge door. Silently opening it the woman said 'good luck' and ran off. Walking in the room Galven looked around and saw tons of different runes on the wall.
"Welcome." A gruff voice said out of nowhere. Finding where the sound came from there was a man in golden tinted robes that covered his face. He was sitting on a chair while examining them. "Why are you here?"
"Me and my friend Ahri have come to join the league." Galven said while looking at the robed figure.
"Let's start with the girl then, come over here." Nervously Ahri walked over there and looked at him. "Now tell me about your past."
After about 20 minutes of Ahri explaining her past and the high summoner asking questions about it he then said "alright I am done with you, now you boy." He said as he pointed at Galven. Walking over to the man Galven looked at him once again. "Tell me about your past boy."
"When I was born I had a strange tattoo on my arm and my mom and dad took care of me because the people in Ionia thought I was a disgrace. After years of protecting me I had to leave to protect my mom, running into the wild and living off of hunting I learned I was the gladiator God the-" Galven was saying when the summoner interrupted him.
"What! Don't lie about what you are son, I can have you killed for saying you are the strongest god on Valoran." The summoner threatened. "Leave now!"
"Wait a second! First of all a gladiator God can just be randomly born! Just because it's rare doesn't mean I'm lying." Galven said back.
"It's not possible, one hasn't been born in years! You are lying to me."
Pulling up his sleeve up on his arm he showed the man his Tattoo.
"That's most likely just a fake tattoo, leave now Or I will have you killed." The summoner said at him.
Pissed off about it Galven channeled all of his energy to his arm and literally slammed the ground with his fist. His tattoo was unbelievably bright. When his fist hit the ground the whole institue of war shook, the shaking knocked stuff off of the summoners desk. Pulling his arm up he shook it slightly and looked at the summoner. The hood blew off of the man's head and his old looking face looked amazed and astonished.
Hearing the door open tons of guards ran in and one of them screamed "Sir are you alright?"
"I-I'm fine now leave!" The man summoner screamed. Quickly the guards rushed outside and left.
Turning his head at Galven, the high summoner said "h-how?"
Shrugging Galven replied "I was just born with it."
"I don't know if we can have you here at the institute of war, whatever city state you represent would be much too powerful compared to the others. Summoning magic can't even contain you unless you let us. With syndra we limited her power but with yours we can't do that." The summoner said while looking at Galven. "I will have to figure this out, Ahri has a judgment to do and Galven I want to know more about your past." Grabbing his summoning orb he did something with it and a person walked into the room. "Tom would you take Ahri to the judgment room?" Seeing the person so called Tom, said yes and he motioned for Ahri to follow him. Once Galven and the summoner where alone Galven explained the rest of his past. "You can join the league Galven, but you will not have a judgement because the magic will not work on you. Are you going to be sharing a room with Ahri or get one by yourself?"
"Umm… I would have to ask Ahri if she wants to be roommates, do you know when she will be done with her judgement?" Galven asked while blushing.
"I will have someone come and bring you to the judgement room, the lady that brung you here does the apartment management so you talk to her when you figure it out." The summoner said.
Within a few second someone appeared out of nowhere and told him to follow her. When Galven got to the summoning chambers Ahri was standing outside of it with a sad look on her face. Quickly Galven ran up to her and asked "did you get accepted?"
"Yeah… I am just sad because of the stuff I saw in there, it brings you back to your worst fear or memory." She said while crying.
"Listen Ahri they need to know if you want your own apartment or if you want us to be roommates." Galven asked while he hugged her.
"I wouldn't mind being roommates…" Ahri said anxiously.
"Follow me Ahri." Galven said as he walked away. Quickly Ahri chased after him, she didn't wanna be alone at that time. Reaching the area where the receptionist is and she looked at them calmly.
"We got accepted in the league the high summoner told me that you are the person that deals with apartments, we want to be roommates." Galven said while looking at the runes painted on the wall.
"Since you guys are roommates you will get a bigger apartment, follow me." The woman said as she pulled 2 keys out of her desk.
After about 2 minutes of walking they stopped at a door that had the number '88' on it. The woman pushed it opened to reveal a living room with 2 couches, and a chair. Walking slightly to their left was a huge kitchen with assorted kitchen supplies. With a medium size bathroom to the left. Going up the stairs there where 2 bedrooms, 1 master bathroom and a laundry room. "This is where you guys will be staying." The woman replied as she handed them both keys. Quickly she walked out of the room and left them both.
Galven ran up stairs and threw his bag on his bed. Then he ran back downstairs and said "the high summoner told me about a training room, I am gonna go check it out."
"Ok I might come and check it out." she said with a smile.
Closing the door he walked down the hallways passing very weird like creatures that gave him intimidating looks. Finally reaching a room that said 'training room, he opened it and to his surprise everyone who was inside just looked at him. Hearing whispers about his mask and who he was he just ignored them and walked up to a training dummy. Walking about 20 yards away from it he threw a throwing knife it and struck it right in the heart. Quickly he repositioned his arms and threw three more. One struck the head while the others struck the hands. Right as he was going to pull the knife out of the wooden dummy a hand touched his shoulder. He turned around to see a huge man with long black hair and a long sword that he dragged on the ground. The mysterious man had huge abs and a helmet with horns on it.
With a deep voice he said "care to duel?"
"Who are you?" Galven asked while examining the man.
"I am the barbarian king, Tryndamere. You must be one of the new champions." He replied loudly.
"Yeah… Haven't ever had that hard of a fight." Galven said as he pulled out his orange pole.
Smiling the barbarian king walked about 10 feet away from Galven then rushed at him full speed. Realizing everyone in the training room is watching Galven decided to give them a show. Using his pole he deflected the barbarian king's blow and side maneuvered while
Sweeping Tryndamere's feet. Knocking the man on the floor humiliatingly, taking this his advantage Galven kicked the man as hard as he could into his stomach. Groaning loudly Tryndamere rolled to the side and stood up. Grabbing his sword he side slashed Galven extremely close to Galven could hardly dodge. The blade skimmed Galven's face and cut off his mask, falling to the floor Galven quickly used his pole and smacked Tryndamere across the face. Standing up Galven easily grabbed Tryndamere's head and smashed it against his knee. But suddenly the barbarian king's eyes lit up with a crimsons gaze and punched Galven on the side. Grunting in pain, Galven slumped over slightly. The furious bargain king grabbed his sword and swung it up into the air with all of his might. Quickly channeling all of his energy into his arm he caught the King's blade on this hand. Felling the blade cut deeper into Galven's hand he quickly knocked it to the side and almost effortlessly punched Tryndamere with his tattooed arm. Watching his eyes roll to the back of his head, the barbarian king fell onto the ground unconsciously.
