Heroes.
People who were renowned throughout the world as heroic figures that everyone can look up to and inspire to. Tales of heroes slaying dragons and protecting people from mythical beasts were what all children used to read in their story books.
A German knight who killed a legendary dragon...
A demigod who completed twelve impossible labors...
A woman who fought for her county and God...
Those were just the few of the famous heroes who have left their marks on the world and on history itself.
However, no matter how heroic or strong the hero is, they always suffer a sad death at the hands of others out of jealousy or hate.
Stabbed in the back by his friend...
Doused in acid and forced to endure painful torture before succumbing to death...
Burned at the stake by her enemies without mercy...
Did these heroes, who have done many great things in their life, deserve to be killed off in a gruesome manner and suffer a sad fate? Granted, not all of them had been entirely perfect, but their deeds have far exceeded their problems.
Seeking for adventure, and not having anything better to do, four teens have built themselves a machine to go to an anime that is heavily based on mythology and the famous figures that have walked the earth ever since the dawn of time.
The fate universe.
Or was it nasuverse? Ah, whatever. Fate always confused the hell out of everyone who reads it.
Their machine took several long years to build, and the money used to make it was up in the millions. The project had been started by their millionaire parents in the early 2010 after they went obsessed with anime. They had managed to complete it before their death, and have left their inheritance for someone to discover.
Kuro, jin, Luke, desmond, and Alex have discovered the machine after they had found a mysterious trap door in their parents basement that was hidden out of view. The machine looked like a massive cryosleep pod from halo, and was hooked up with thousands of wires.
All of the wires connected a computer to the machine, and had computer codes scrolling up and down the computer.
They took a look at what the computer codes were supposed to do, and we're surprised. They were codes that were designed to give the people who went through the machine powers of their own choosing.
Of course, it was limited because their was only a finite amount of space on the computer.
Of course, being the adventure driven kids they were, how could they pass up such an opportunity? After tinkering with the machine for several hours, they managed to figure out how it worked.
There were many wires scattered around the room, and hooked the machine to a computer that sat by the desk. Apparently, the computer was supposed to set your destination, and give you any anime power that you wanted as long as their was enough computer space to input the codes.
Naturally, when one has the ability to give themselves any power, you know they're going to abuse the shit out of it. The only problem was which powers were they going to get?
In the end, they all decided to grab powers from the most awesome anime of all time, Naruto.
After all, having powers that allow you to split a lightning bolt in half was pure badass in everyone's opinion.
They put in the computer codes for their powers, but were disappointed when they found out that they had run out of room to put computer codes for the sharingan. So in the end, they just decided to keep the rinnegan instead.
It was a little sad, but all of them were too excited to care.
They implanted codes to take them into the fate universe with the intent of traveling to the far distant past. After all, why fight a battle against seven opponents when you could actually fight them in their prime?
Once they had finished implanting the codes, Kuro slammed his finger down on the enter button, and the machine began to turn on with a hum as it began to accumulate energy towards itself.
It was like a rotor that was gradually picking up speed as it charged up energy. It casted a bright light inside of the room that got bigger with every passing second. Once the light enveloped everyone inside of the room, it quickly disappeared, showing a now empty room.
And just like that, the boys journey has begun.
