A Zero Hunter

Louise the "zero" was always a failure. The springtime familiar summing festival is coming up and she's grown even more desperate to summon a strong familiar, and prove she's not a failure. She fortunately gets her wish, but in the worst way possible.

This is my first fanfic so sorry for crappy summaries and story; also I don't own Familiar of Zero, I only own my character alone.

Episode 2: An Unusual Contract

Louise had become used to explosions, thought she'd never admit it to anyone, but the force had still surprised her. The force had actually thrown her back n caused a rather painful landing on her back. 'I've failed again. I truly am a failure' the thought ran through her mind, as she slowly rose to her feet wiping soot off her face with a small cloth.

"I must've made a mistake, please let me try…" Louise began, but became silent at the sight of the man in front of her. 'Did I summon a soldier?' She thought as his face turned towards her. A small eep escaped her as his eyes caught hers. 'Dear god no not a soldier! He's got to be a daemon!'

"Wo zur Hölle bin ich? Antworte mir jetzt!" He yelled his gaze holding her in place.

A feeling of cold crept up Louise's spine at his words. 'He'll kill me if I go near him! What did I do to deserve this?'

"Miss Vallière please complete the contract." A balding older man nervously voiced.

Snapping her from her trance, Louise straightened to her unimpressive full height. 'I summoned him, that's right! He's just a familiar! I'm a noble after all!' Suddenly with bravery that surprised even her she began to step forward. 'He's just a familiar! My familiar!' She repeated in her head to keep her from freezing under the intimidating man's stare. Stopping in front of the man she realized just how tall he was.

"You…You should be honored by t-this commoner. " The pink haired mage gave a flinch back at his sudden movement to crouch. His eyes glaring though the mask

"Hast du mich rufen nach einem job oder hast du meine Zeit verschwenden?" He growled as an accusing finger was brought to point at the small mage's forehead before resting at his side. "Warum habe ich so viel Glück?" He gave a sigh n a small chuckle with a shake of his head.

The sound of humor coming from the man startled Louise, thinking he was making fun of her. 'He's laughing at me! This dirty dog is making fun of me! I'll put him in his place!' Her anger flared at the thought of being a laugh even to a commoner, her hand shot out grabing the neck of his vest to pulling him down to deliver a kiss on the masks scowl.

A sudden pain began to grow on her left shoulder causing Louise to retreat back, hand flying to comfort the injured limb. Laughter caused her to raise her head to see the man holding his head with one hand, shoulders shaking in mock joy.

"Never thought I'd get caught in a contract like this. Though I've never had such a cute partner." He began as he stoped his laugh to stare at the small mage his stance changing to that of a smug being. Giving a sigh at the girl infront of him he reached out for her arm. "Let me see it, the signature should've stoped hurting by now." Peeling away her hand he inspected her small shoulder, a stone colored longsword with angelic wings rising from the hilt was there.

Giving it a once over and a nod he let go. "Well everything appears in order, now I'll bet you wanna make sure your side of the deal is kept." Sliding his left glove off he presented her with the back of his hand. "See heres your sign so we have a contract. Though now I want some answers."

"Wait may I see your hand for a minute first? After that I promise well take care of any questions you have; right Louise?" The old man from earlier asked his eyes on the odd two people.

"Depends. Who are you?"

"Ah yes I'm Colbert, Jean Colbert, a professer at Tristain Academy of Magic. And you dear ser are?"

"Never heard of it, but I'll give you the benifit of the doubt. Now get this over with I want answers, and the names Saven, I'll take it that this little pink buety is Louise" The masked man stated giving a nod to the agap girl next to him as he held his hand up for the man to inspect.

"You are correct ser." Colbert sated as he wrote down a copy of the marking on a piece of paper before stashing it away quickly. "Now please follow me Louise you too. I'll send others to round up the scared students."

"I seem to make crowds diapear no matter where I go." Saven gave a chuckle as he threw Louise over his shoulder before following Colbert towards a giant castle he took as the acadamy. "You mages like to be fancy round here dont you, even for a simple school?"

He asked pointing to he enormous building.

"Why yes, now that you mention it we do. Well we mages are nobles after all I guess we have to uphold an image after all."

"Nobles? The list of questions I have keep getting longer an longer, by the way is she always this quiet?

"Lousie? No, Usually shes quite talkative."

"Is that so?" Saven stated with a small laugh as they walked through an acadameys entrance.

"You know your actually quite a cheerful man despite your appearance."

"War isnt a fashion show but i try my best" He responded before giving a silent Louise a slap on the ass. "You still with me back there buttercup?" His answer came in the form of a scream and a sudden writhing mage.

"How dare you! You...You commoner! You dare to touch me; a noble in such a vulgar manner! You filthy perverted dog! You'll pay for that!"

"Well shes back to her normal self thats a relief." Colbert said with a sigh as he continued walking.

"You sure thats a relief there doc?" Saven replied sarcasticly as Louise continued on her rant of nobles and perverted dogs."Can we hurry up shes getting louder."

"Of course." Colbert replied as he quickening his pace, Saven falling right in step with the increase in speed.

Please read and review (constructive critism only) this is my first fanfic and I promise to try and make it better while updating soon if enjoyed. Saven's personality, and history will fill out later in stories to come.
