Chapter 20: whut?
I woke up in a bed, i had nothing on me and had a big headache. The room was big and shiny. I had no idea about where i was. I stood up and went to the window. The sight was familiar but i couldn't point out where i was a big castle bright and clean. The house showed the wealth of this city. I couldn't spot any beggar.
How come i can see that far?
My sight was amazing and it was natural to use it. I tried to see if i had some other "power up" and spoted dumbbells. I don't know how, but i knew about what was normal. I looked at it and tried to lift it. It was too light... i tried with one hand and i noticed no change. On the wall, i saw a a mirror. I went in front and looked at my reflection. I was tall, muscular and i had red eyes. I went back on the bed and grasped my head. The headache i had was getting stronger and i was sweating a lot. I looked around and found a small nightstand with a pill, a glass of water and a note. I took the note and read it, it was a doctor note.
To Mr Crownguard marius
I analyzed your blood sample and found that you had a perfect health.
You had a memory loss after a battle with noxus frontline.
Your headache must be caused by the stress of memory loss.
I asked a maid of your family to give you the medecine.
Hope you will get better.
Dr Hermerdinger
So i'm marius crownguard, a warrior... ok that explain my injury and my musculature.
The medecine was effective, my headache was getting bearable. I looked at the room again and this time i could study without missing anything. I saw a big wardrobe. I don't know how i could miss it before. I went to open it and inside it, a big armor was inside, it was a black armor with a black shield and a huge sword of the same color. Beside it, a formal suit, gold and blue. I wore it and it was well done. It was as if i had a second skin. I looked like a rich noble man. I went to the mirror to make sure it was fine. While i was looking at the mirror, someone was knoking at the door of the bedroom.
"it's open"
A woman and a man went inside. They were something like 50 or 40. The man was marked by time and war while the woman was looking like a young lady in her 30. I had no idea about thei identity.
"excuse me, my i know who you are? "
The woman began to cry and the man tried to confort her.
"did i say something wrong?"
"no, it's just that we hoped you would remember us at least..."
"may i know why i would remember you?"
" You're our adopted son."
"ho..."
i didn't know what to do... I mean, i woke up in a bedroom with no memory and a couple of old people came in calling me their adopted son... I seriously didn't know what to do. I was thinking when a second head came in. A young blond girl with a bright smile. She jumped at me and hugged me tightly.
"do we know each other?"
"Ho, your memory loss, i forgot..."
she let go of me and looked down. I thought i could see tears but she lifted her head up and smiled at me. She jumped at me again and kissed me on the neck. I was stunned by her action and didn't react, she jumped back smiled and ran away.I looked at the couple.
"Hum, can you explain who she is and what happened?"
"Sure, she is your futur wife. When we say we adopted you, it was to make sure our name will stay even for her. You will get married in two weeks by the way."
"well, at least i have a good life here. But i need to ask you a lot of thing about me."
"And we will answer but before, we have to lunch."
"okay."
They asked me to follow them and we went to a big livingroom. Maid came in and brought us a lot of food. While we ate they explained me a lot of thing. First, they told me about "our" kingdom, demacia and our king jarvan 4. then they explained my past. Apparently, i'm an orphan and graw up in an orphenage. At my 10 birthday, i showed a lot of potential with a sword so they took me in a military school and taught me the way of war. 8 years later they took me on a special unit. I had a lot of succes and through time, i ended up leading the unit. Due to my armor i was called black knight. Two years later i gained the general title and was adopted by their family to marry their daughter. Well, it what they told me.
I was about to leave the room when a man with a golden armor came in, behind him were a lady with a blue skin and a man with a bulky armor. I thought i already met them but when i tried to think about it, the headache came back. I grasped my head and tried to think about somethingh else. The headache disappeared.
"Marius! How are you my friend? I heard you lost your memory after a clash with a noxian unit.i'm sorry."
"ha ha ha jarvan you shouldn't worry, even a dragon wouldn't kill that guy!"
"true... i tried to fight him back then, he gave me a lot of cut and i couldn't even penetrate his armor."
The three laughed together. I said nothing but apparently i knew them and we were friends. I looked at them and tried to remember. The headache came again. This time a maid came and gave me a pill. I took it and gulped headache went away. I was about to ask them something when The guy with the golden armor talked.
"Seeing that you lost memory, i'm jarvan, this is shyvana and here is your brother in law, garen."
"Nice to see you, i suppose?"
"don't worry, i'm sure your memory will come back. By the way, i need you to weat your armor tomorow. I'll introduce you to our people. Until now, no one knew about you aside from a few the king told about your unit. Seeing that your whole unit was killed by this beast and you're the last one alive, We wont make the same error and let warrior die without recognition. I'll use this opportunity to announce your wedding in the crownguard family."
"ho... well it explain a lot of thing."
"Yes, see you tomorow."
The two of them went away and garen stood here. He looked at me with a big smile. Something was scary in his smile. He came at me an put his arm ao my shoulder.
"Tomorow, we'll have a party for you. We'll go after jarvan speech. You'll need a good night of sleep."
"I don't know why but i think it's a bad idea..."
"don't worry, everything will be fine."
He took his arm off and went his way. I thought about all they said. I had a bad feeling about the story they told me.
Maybe it's just me...
I went to my bedroom and began to undress. I just had my underwear on when i felt something watching me. I grabbed a pillow and trew it.
"ouch"
I jumped on the direction from where the sound came from. I grasped something and blocked it on the ground.
"show yourself or i'll punch."
"Y-yes."
The young girl i saw back then appeared under me. She wore nothing but blue underwear. It was funny, a big muscular guy on a slender cute girl.
"So , what do you want?"
"c-could you let me stand please? I just wanted to sleep with you?"
"Just sleep?"
"Y-yess! we can't do it before the wedding!"
"i never said anything about doing it "
She was blushing like crazy.I thought about letting her go but seeing her like that was fun. We stayed like that for a short moment and i finally let her go. I went to the bed and laid down. She looked at me and came beside me. I took her in my arms and closed my eyes. Something was wrong with everything i saw and heard today but my actual situation was fine so i let it go. I fell asleep with this girls in my arms, serene.
Somewhere else.
"Why didn't we do this from the begining? Making them forget about high magic."
"Because this illusion use a lot of mana and we will maintain it until noxus or demacia win. When one of them will win, we'll stop this, we'll just have to make sure this ghost don't remember is a greater threat."
"But sire, what about the women?"
"They will never remember. I'm not sure for this syndra but the rest will easily forget him."
"sure."
