Chương 1: in a strange new world
Disclaimer: I don't own Akatsuki no Yona or Zero no Tsukaima
Professor Colbert is standing outside the academy in front of his class of second year students of the Tristain Academy of Magic.
"The day has finally come for the summoning ritual. This is the first test for you all now that you've advanced to the second year here at the Tristain Academy of Magic and the sacred first day where you'll meet your familiars with whom you'll be spending your life living as a nobleman." Professor Colbert tells his class.
"All set Louise, I'm looking forward towards what amazing familiar you'll summon." Kirche says taunting the smaller pinkette who is known for being unable to do spells correctly but still claimed that her summon will be superiors to Kirche's.
"Leave me alone." Louise groans, fearing another failure.
The students then make a line, where they summon their familiars one after another under the supervision of professor Colbert and the curious eyes of their classmates.
After most of the class is done summoning with the most impressive summon so far being a smaller dragon summoned by Tabitha, Kirche's best friend only Kirche and Louise remain.
"Go ahead Louise, let's see what familiar you will summon." Kirche tells her predicting a victory over her classmate.
Louise then starts to chant, having altered the standard spell and to no surprise causes a massive explosion.
"Are you alright Montmorency?" Guiche a blonde teen who's always flirting with different girls, cheating on them all the time asks a blonde girl, helping her up.
She only points in front of Louise where instead of a usual summon now lies a boy around their age dressed in unusual clothes.
"That's a peasant, no doubt about it." Guiche says along with some other students, looking at Louise's summon.
"Who are you peasant?" Louise asks her familiar, who is sitting up, looking around confused. Having just chased a glowing orb.
"Exactly what I'd think of someone who boasted like you did, to think that you'd actually summon up a peasant." Kirche says snickering.
"I just made a small mistake that's all." Louise says grumpily.
"Louise the zero, she always lives up to expectations." Another kid says making the class laugh.
"Mr. Colbert can I try the summoning spell again?" Louise asks her teacher panicked.
"I can't allow it. The summoning ceremony is sacred and affects a mages entire life. Whether you like it or not this boy has been chosen as your familiar and nothing can change that." Professor Colbert replies while Saito, the boy Louise summoned is wondering what they are talking about, not being able to understand their language.
"There will be no exceptions, now continue with the ritual." Mr. Colbert tells her.
Louise goes over to Saito, chanting the second part of the ritual and kisses Saito, who freezes up stunned until he feels like his body is on fire and a runic symbol engraves itself onto his hand. Saito screams out in pain and passes out when the rune finishes. Lousie then drags the unconscious Saito to the side grudgingly, so Kirche can attempt her summoning.
Kirche then steps up to the field where they summon their familiars and starts her chant, using the standard spell, describing her familiar as a powerful and trustworthy protector.
Once she finishes her spell a rip in the air can be seen and a teen around their age jumps out of it with a Halbert.
Once the teen sees the class look at him stupefied, since no one thought that Kirche would also summon a commoner he brandishes his weapon at them shouting "Where am I, where is the palace?" in a language none of them understand.
Kirche tries to calm him down talking to him in her own language but the teen doesn't understand what she's saying either.
Professor Colbert who stood back when Louise summoned her boy now interferes, feeling the strong aura around the teen and recognizing the danger he poses, having felt this pressure before from when he was a combat mage.
He chants something quickly, moving in front of Kirche, who looks at her teacher surprised and uses a language spell on the teen allowing him to understand and speak their language.
"What did you do?" Hak yells at the man who jumped in front of the beautiful tanned redhead.
"I used a spell, so we can communicate. It allows you to understand us and talk in our language." Professor Colbert says lowering his wand, but still keeping it ready.
"Where am I, what did you do with the King and Yona?" Hak shouts furiously, glancing at the teens scattered around the field, having moved away because of his threatening demeanor.
"You are at the Tristain Academy of Magic." Professor Colbert tells him.
"I've never heard of this place Tristain." Hak says suspiciously.
"It's likely that you've been summoned here from another dimension, guided by fate." Professor Colbert explains.
"Another dimension? Don't joke around. You have 5 seconds to explain what's going on or you'll be the first to taste my Halbert." Hak warns him.
"Wait. Stop. He is telling the truth. I summoned you here using magic." Kirche says coming out from behind the teacher.
"Prove it." Hak replies cautiously, staring the redhead down.
Kirche lifts her wand and creates a small fireball over it, moving it around. "See. This is magic."
'Holy Shit. He was serious.' "What have you summoned me here for?" Hak asks relaxing slightly but keeping his guard up.
"I summoned you to be my familiar, my partner who'll go through life alongside me." Kirche tells him.
"Is there a way back?" Hak asks now looking back at Colbert.
"Sadly no, not as far as we know. You are only the second human to have been summoned here in this time, the first being this boy who arrived just before you. All the other familiars are animals or other creatures." Colbert explains, making Hak put his Halbert at his side, obviously thinking over what he just learned.
'Let's say they are telling the truth, what do I do? I only see two options right now, leave and survive on my own and figure out what this place is or become the girls' companion, something I've been for Yona up till now, despite my attempts to get her to see me as more.
"I see, since I have no other choice but to accept my fate I swear upon my honor to protect you and fulfil anything your heart desires." Hak says bowing on one knee to Kirche, his Halbert at his side.
"That is not how we greet our familiars here. I am Kirche Augusta Frederica von Anhalt-Zerbst and you will become my most trusted familiar." Kirche chants the rest of the summoning ritual, going over to Hak and taking his face in her hand, pulling him up so he's standing and then gets on her toes since he's slightly taller than her and kisses him.
Hak freezes up, developing a huge blush since this is his first kiss but he soon responds to it, although awkwardly. Once Kirche pulls back from the kiss she gives him a wink, surprising him before he feels a burning pain spreading from shoulder to shoulder across his collarbone.
"What is happening?" Hak questions, grasping his robe in pain.
"What is going on Mr. Colbert?" Kirche asks the older man, concern evident in her voice.
"His familiar rune is being imprinted on him." Colbert explains, looking at the teen just as intrigued as he was with Saito.
Hak removes his robe revealing his strong upper body and looks at his shoulders, seeing some kind of writing glowing across them.
"Is this supposed to happen?" Hak grunts asking Kirche.
"It is supposed to bond us for life but it's not supposed to be painful. Sorry, hang in there it'll be over shortly." Kirche tells him and takes his free hand, hoping to provide some comfort.
A minute later Hak lets out an exhausted breath and uprights himself, looking down again, now seeing the black writing spreading over his shoulders.
"Is this supposed to mean something?" He asks her tracing the writing.
"I don't know, Mr. Colbert do you know?" Kirche asks her teacher.
"No I don't but let me write it down, maybe I'll find something out." Colbert tells them stopping Hak from dressing.
"So what will happen now?" Hak asks Kirche since the older man is busy copying the signs.
"I think we should go to my chambers and get to know each other. But first there is something I have to do." Kirche says and goes over to Louise saying "Looks like we're in a draw Louise though I have to say my familiar still looks more impressive than yours."
"Hah, we'll see about that." Louise replies cockily since Kirche also summoned a commoner.
"Let's go Hak. I'll show you around afterwards." Kirche tells him and Hak redresses himself, picks up his Halbert which he rammed into the ground as a support and follows the redhead.
As they leave Louise also drags her familiar to her room while the students look amongst themselves confused.
"The worst and the best in our class summoned commoners? What the hell is going on?" Montmorency asks and starts a wild discussion.
Meanwhile Hak and Kirche arrive in her room, where she sits down on her bed and pats the place beside her seeing Hak stop at the door, standing there like a statue.
"Come sit." She tells him and Hak follows the instruction, sitting down next to the girl, the Halbert leaned against his shoulder.
"Can I see that?" Kirche asks trailing a finger along the Halbert.
"Go ahead." Hak offers, holding out the end of the Halbert while the bottom is still on the floor.
Kirche grabs the weapon and falls back, not able to properly hold up the heavy weapon.
"What the hell does that thing weigh?" she asks stupefied once Hak removes it from her, seeing her struggle against the weight.
"I don't know. Never weight it." Hak replies.
"Well anyways, Like I've said my name is Kirche and I'm from a noble family." She introduces herself.
"Hak. General of the Wind Tribe. Also known as Thunder Beast." Hak introduces himself, giving her a bow.
"General? But you look so young, like you're at most a year older than us." Kirche says surprised.
"I'm 17 years old. And I've been trained to take my adopted father's position since I was 2." Hak replies.
"16. Wow must have been hard." Kirche says pointing to herself.
"It was what it was." Hak says unfazed.
"So, why the moniker Thunder Beast? By the way I'm called Kirche the Ardent because I use fire magic." Kirche says smiling at him.
"I got this name because of the sound my Halbert made on the battlefield, like thunder striking down my enemies." Hak tells her, looking at his Halbert.
"Scary. Got a girlfriend back home?" Kirche asks him playfully.
"No. I was guard to a girl I liked but it was one sided." Hak tells her embarrassedly.
"I see, I see. Just so you know I usually have many men doting me but I think now that I've got you I might not need them anymore." Kirche tells him, looking him up and down with a finger on the edge of her mouth.
"What do you mean?" Hak asks blushing up a storm but trying to stay collected.
"Nothing, nothing. I was just thinking out loud." Kirche says seeing that her implications made the teen she only knows for around an hour or two uncomfortable.
"Kirche, I have a question. What will my duties as your servant be?" Hak asks the girl serious about his vow.
"I hadn't even thought of that. Like Colbert told you we many get animal familiars." Kirche tells him.
"I see, so I'm of no use to you?" Hak asks disappointed that he has no goal to accomplish.
"No, no. God no. From what you said you are a warrior right?" Kirche asks getting a nod in return.
"Perfect. The main reason for a familiar is for them to aid us in battle, some also help with daily stuff but I'm sure we'll figure it out." Kirche tells him.
"I'm relieved. I feared I would have to lay down my arms and part from fighting." Hak says honestly.
"Don't worry. I won't make you do anything you don't want to, most of the time." Kirche says adding the last part seductively whispering it into his ear before she nibbles at it, making him jump in surprise.
"Hah-hah-ha you're way to easy to tease. For such a handsome man you're surprisingly inexperienced." Kirche says giggling.
"Where I am from there was not much time or chance for a romantic or physical relationship with anyone." Hak replies bowing his head.
"Don't be so glum. It makes me want to eat you up." Kirche teases him, getting him to blush again.
"What shall I address you?" Hak asks her.
"Just call me Kirche. Now, it's getting late, you may want to wait outside while I bathe and change." She tells him, getting a nod in return as he walks out of her room, standing guard in front of her door.
While he's guarding the door Saito escapes Louise, who told him about his duties and his role as familiar only to get caught by her and Guiche who gives her a hand.
About 10 minutes into guarding the door Hak hears the window being opened in the room but can also still hear Kirche in the small bathroom in her dorm room.
Hak hurries in the room and sees a boy wearing the schools uniform about to sneak into Kirche's bathroom and raises his Halbert so the blade is just under the boys throat.
"What are you doing here?" Hak asks him threateningly, making the teen have chills run down his spine.
Kirche who heard the commotion steps out of her tub, uses magic to fix a towel around herself and opens the door only to see Hak choking the guy she asked to her room earlier that week with his massive Halbert.
"Hak, you can release him. I forgot to inform him that our rendezvous is cancelled." Kirche tells her black haired familiar, who releases the teen, letting him jump out the window yelling about demon's and their torture devices.
"My my what did you tell him?" Kirche asks her familiar shaking her head amused while she gets out her sleep wear, consisting of underwear and a see-through nightgown.
Hak seeing her about to step out of her towel turns around, looking at the entrance door answering "I just explained what would happen if I ever caught him near you again. I'm sorry if I've spoke out of terms."
"No, no that's quite alright. I was only using guys like him to fill the void of not having a special man in my life, but now that I have you, I won't need them anymore." Kirche tells him as she walks up behind him now dressed in her sleepwear and pokes his back, getting him to turn around and blush upon seeing her like that. She twirls around two times before she strikes a seductive pose asking him "What do you think?".
"It- i- it looks good." Hak stutters.
"Come now, it's your turn." Kirche says pulling him along to the bed, kneeling down on it and sitting Hak on the edge while she helps him out of his robe, leaving him in his pants and shoes.
"Take off your shoes and put your Halbert away." Kirche orders softly, making Hak follow her instructions.
"Now, don't be so stiff. I'm not going to hurt you." Kirche whispers into his ear, her arms around his neck, trailing over his familiar mark as she pushes her very developed breasts into his back.
"Kirche, this seems rather inappropriate." Hak says worried.
"Relax. I won't do anymore than cuddling if you won't." Kirche tells him playfully, blowing into his ear, making Hak sigh and try to calm down since her actions are affecting a certain area on his waist.
"Come on now Hak, we have a busy day ahead of us tomorrow." Kirche tells him, lying down and pulling at his hand until Hak complies and lies down on the bed next to the gorgeous redhead.
"You're making me more nervous than any battlefield I've been on. I'm not sure if that's a good thing, after all how can I protect someone if I'm nervous when in their presence?" Hak tells her.
"It's a good thing. Give it some time and you'll see. Also I'm not some helpless little princess you need to worry about constantly. I'm a stronger than average mage for my age, so we'll be fighting together."
