Hey there, this is Tazal Terminal at your service. In this chapter, things will start to get interesting, very interesting. I might add Zulf, Zia and Ruck later in the story, but it will not be any time soon. I do not own the rights of Bastion and Rosario and Vampire. Anyway, TO THE STORY!
Chapter 1
The forest was quiet, a lot quieter then a normal forest. There wasn't even the singing of birds, nor the rustling of animals on the ground because the forest was empty. At least it seemed empty to the kid. As he walked, he wondered what happened when the bastion was activated. Ruck said that the world will be back to normal. And it sort of was, for the ground was back together. But Ruck also said that none of them will remember the Calamity. For the restoration worked by resetting the world back to the way it was before the Calamity. That meant the deaths, the destruction and the memory. This new world however was completely different from the one he remembered.
How? The question rang in the kids head. Was it something to do with the Ura's attack on the Bastion? Did they somehow managed to sabotage the monument so badly that it didn't do its job properly? Or was it when Zulf smashed the monument that an important piece fell off? The kid didn't hold it agains the Ura thou. They had every right be angry and want to destroy the bastion. After all, it was the caelondians fault that the calamity happened. The calamity was the master plan of the mancers to wipe the Ura out. It worked by collapsing everyone of their tunnels at once. But the plan backfired didn't it. The kid knew why, it was Venn. He was the man behind the plan, and was an Ura. When Venn discovered the genocidal intentions, he rigged the thing to backfire into the mancers faces. It was pretty saddening to find out for the kid.
What to do now? Well, the first thing he needed to do was quite obvious, find the others. The second was to discover what exactly happened, the third is to find the bastion and fix it. Ruck said that no matter what happened to the bastion, the core part of it will always remain. The last was that if they were stuck in this world, then find a way to life here. He wondered where the others were at this time. He missed Zia most of all. Even thou she was an Ura, he had gotten a spot for her in his hearth.
The kid checked his inventory to find out what he had. He had 10 health tonic, 8 black tonic, 4 grenades, 1 mine, his cael hammer, the calamity cannon, brusher's pike, fang repeater, army carbine and his shield. In Caelondia, some people are born with the ability to summon things that they owned. When not used, these things were stored in a pocket something. No one truly knows what it is. Some say it's a dimension, while others say its portal to other places. This ability was very rare, and it took years of training to summon your things at will. It was very useful, for it meant that you can pretty much carry all you need wherever you go. But it had some weak spots. For instance, one can only summon two thing at once, and you cant do it when you're tired. Also the bigger the summon is, the more time it takes to summon. For example, a cael hammer can be summoned in an instance. But cannon or a mortar will take up to 15 seconds, also summoning required some amount of concentration. While these may seem like little nuisance to common folk, it was deadly for the users in the heat of battle. Anyway back to the kid.
As he finished checking his inventory, he suddenly sensed something watching him. All the time partoling the Wild and on the Rippling Walls had sharpened his senses. He looked around, but could see nothing. Then a rustle came from someway off to his left side. A shape slowly appeared, a very familiar shape. The kid grabbed his hammer, and readied himself for a fight. The shape was a Gasfella. It wasn't alone as several more appeared next to it. There were atleast 10 gasfella, 23 squirts and 3 very big scumbags.
While the kid had the higher ground, the windbags had him surrounded. That's the number one thing you don't want windbags to do when fighting them. They were quick and hit hard. Especially the gasfellas. He couldn't use his guns because they took 5 seconds, and that's enough time for a windbag to finish you off.
The squirts attacked first. Kid dodged one, then smashed another into a puddle, deflected a third and then used one of his black tonic for a whirl wind killing another 7 squirts. Then quickly, he charged smashed into the remaining squirts with his shield. Raising their weapons the gasfellas floated forward. Deflecting a strike from above, the kid used his hammer for an uppercut with a reverse strike following it. A scumbag charged at him knocking him 10 feet. He returned the hug with a hammer to the back. He slowly whittled down the windbags, but it wasn't easy. He already got a cut in his knee, with a brutal hit into his back which would leave an ugly bruise, if he lives to see it that is. Now he was facing 4 gasfella and scumbags. His breathing was heavy, the hammer in his hand felt heavier then when he started.
A shotgun would have been the ideal weapon in this situation. Backing slowly he summoned his fang repeater and loaded it into the closest gasfella. Rolling forwards he thrusted brushers pike into another then raised the shaft to deflect a blow from the third. Pike through the back killed the last scumbag.
Panting he stood on the edge of a cliff that he was pushed towards, finally able to rest. But life isn't always that simple.
A huge scumbag, 35 feet tall emerged and charged at him. He only had time to bring his shield and was sent flying off the edge. He was already used to falling but they always were annoying. After some time he smashed through a window of a building he was heading towards. Groaning he got up to see the surprised and shocked faces of students. Well, this is just great he thought.
What do you think guys? Bad or good? Sorry for the crappy scene. This is after all my first time writing a fiction. I will explain why there was windbags near yokai academy in the next chapter. Also, the reason why I made the kid smash through a window is to make an exciting entrance for our guy.. And thanks for reading.
