AN: Hello to all and any that looked at the title and thought, 'OK, I'll read it'. Thanks.
I hope I can at least get you to review on this, because I'm not the best writer when it comes to the details or grammar of a story. I hope I can find time to write this. A lot of things could suddenly happen in my life so, sorry in advance.
This story will most likely contain: swears, blood, a little gore in the future, a chance of crappy writing (don't let that discourage you), and Krieg.
I'll mention it now that Krieg only will be the only character from any of the Borderlands games to show up in this story, so yeah enjoy.
The Voices of Krieg:
"Insane Krieg"
Deep Voice
DEEP SHOUT
Inner Krieg
"Inner Krieg said out loud."
Why did you jump on to the train? The inner voice of Krieg rang out inside the in-control and insane Krieg's empty head, who was walking on the tracks of the train he just jumped off.
"Ha ha. Time makes my blood boil," Krieg growled as he looked over his buzz axe for any marks.
We should be getting back, hopefully they're waiting for us. Krieg groaned in annoyance, but turned around anyway. The sounds of a train heading right for him could be heard. Remembering the first encounter with a train, he threw himself off the tracks, just in time to see the train pass by. He landed on something hard, but wasn't bothered by it. The sounds of the train disappeared off into the distance as he got off the ground. He looked around, but found nothing of interest and asked/yelled, "No pretty lady!?"
Inner Krieg rolled his eyes at the question, stopping mid-roll when something at his feet caught his eye. Krieg reached down and picked it up. It was a stone cone with glowing purple parts. It's the vault key! Handsome Jack doesn't have the vault key anymore. We win, we have to get back to the others. How do we make sure it doesn't fall back into the hands of Jack? It's probably too strong to destroy it. Inner Krieg started to ponder what to do with the key.
"DESTROY!" Krieg shouted, throwing the key into the air, and smashing it into a million pieces with his buzz axe. Time around him started to slow down as the pieces of the key that went in all directions slowed to a halt. Great job genius, you broke time. Inner Krieg insulted insane Krieg as the key's pieces started to revolve around him and purple lines shot out of the pieces to each other. A purple bubble formed, surrounding him. The ground under him disappeared, but yet he felt like he was still on the ground. A purple light radiated from the bubble and filled his view with so much purple, that he had to shut his eyes.
"Too. Much. Purple. Not. ENOUGH. RED!" Krieg steadily got louder until he was yelling, he opened his eyes, and launched his body forward. Instead of seeing a desert that he expected, he found a lushest forest as his surroundings. "Where are we?" Inner Krieg asked as he looked around and the train tracks were gone, as well as the key.
"Arrgh. Inside voice, stay in." Krieg said as he hit the flat side of his buzz axe against his head a few times. "What are you talking about?" Inner Krieg said when he realized something, Krieg was whispering, his voice was being spoke. It was a great improvement, but an improvement that couldn't be thought about as Krieg rammed a tree and rambled about how his meat bicycle is only built for one.
OK, stop it. Anyway, how did we get into this forest? Inner Krieg didn't let his voice escape for the fear of destroying the tree and attracting attention from anyone or anything in the forest.
Inner Krieg checked his/Krieg's inventory, skills, and map. The map was empty and all of the skills were still there. The inventory was empty except for a relic that increases fire damage, a normal shield, a class mod that increased fire damage, fifty Eridium bars, and Krieg's buzz axe; any other weapons weren't there. Great, we have no guns. Inner Krieg sighed. "Guns lessen the bloodshed." Krieg grinned from under his psycho mask and looked at his buzz axe.
Krieg began to wander through the forest, killing several squirrels and birds, until he stumbled upon a clearing filled with four teenagers, two guys and two girls, fighting a mob of dark creatures. One guy had red hair, dark skin, and gauntlets with blades on them. The other guy was tall, tanned, and a long sword. One girl had dark brown hair, sunglasses, and a Gatling gun. The last person was a girl with a brown box, no weapon, long brown hair, and... rabbit ears? The rabbit ears confused Krieg, while inner Krieg tried to think of a reason for the ears. Eridium testing. That was the first thing that came to him. She got lucky that she didn't die.
The dark creatures had white masks and varied from boars to wolfs to bears to snakes. To inner Krieg, Eridium testing was the same reason for the creatures' appearance. One of the bears attacked the rabbit girl with it's claw. She was thrown back from the strike and dropped her box, about twenty colored crystals fell out. Krieg picked up five red crystals, putting four away.
We have to save them. Inner Krieg ordered as the creatures started to close in on the teens. "WHO WANTS THE FIRST SLICE?!" Krieg yelled, making everyone and everything stop and look towards him. What does the crystal do? Inner Krieg asked as Krieg jumped over the rabbit girl and ran at the crowd of creatures. He crushed the crystal in his hand and was suddenly engulfed by fire and red dust that appeared from the it. Of course, we get set on fire. Krieg let out some hysterical laughter as he met his first enemy.
Krieg gripped his buzz axe with both hands and dived the saw blade into a dark bear's mask. It went through with little resistance and the bear was set ablaze. He pulled his weapon out and with a little spin, swung it down onto a dark wolf's arm. The blade continued through the arm and to the other arm, stopping only when it hit a boar's backside. The buzz axe chipped a piece of the armour off the boar, but it was set on fire. "Now run, HAHAHA run!" Krieg chuckled loudly as he started to rampage, cutting and burning all of the creatures.
-Time-
After what seemed like twenty minutes, the ground was littered with corpses of the dark creatures that started to dissipate into nothingness. "I have the shiniest meat bicycle!" Krieg howled, thrusting his buzz axe into the air as the fire on his body burnt out naturally.
*Click*
The sound of a camera, felt out off place for Krieg and slightly ruined his want to slaughter anything that moved, only slightly though. He looked in the direction of the camera to see the rabbit girl holding a camera and the other three teens stood next to her, all ready for him to make a move.
"Who are you?" The sunglasses girl asked.
"I'm Krieg Inferno!" Krieg shouted at the top of his lungs and arched backward. That's not our last name. Inner Krieg pointed out.
"Well, anyway, Mr. Inferno you'll have to come with us."
"Why?" Krieg said coldly, making the rabbit girl shivered a little.
"We were told to bring anyone found out here with us, by force if we have to." She gave a little head nod and the two guys started to walk towards him.
Are they innocent? If they strike to kill, then they aren't innocent and you can kill them. Inner Krieg didn't want to kill them, they were clearly different then normal bandits, but he can't take any chances. The last time he spared someone, he found himself locked in a cell and getting tested on with Eridium. He didn't want to repeat that no matter what, he already lost the memories of the ones he lost and didn't want to lose anymore memories.
"Hey, no fighting," a male voice called out from the right of them and everyone looked. There stood a man with a red cape, a sword with gears on the handle, and facial hair.
[Qrow Branwen
-A Dust, Old Crow]
Those words appeared in front of the man before disappearing, but only in Krieg's mind. Why does Claptrap's naming system still work? Inner Krieg wondered as he watched 'Qrow' look at Krieg.
"It's the bird of darkness, here steal away my shinies!" Krieg shouted as he pointed to the man then retracted his hand into a fist to his chest. Shut up. Inner Krieg said as the man chuckled at his nickname.
"Ha, nice light show you put on here. My name's Qrow," The man looked at the aftermath and walked to the teens. "Tell him you names, he just saved you." He started to pull a flask from his pocket.
The Gatling gun girl pointed out, "Weren't you suppose to save us if we got in trouble?" Qrow was too busy drinking from a flask to hear her. She sighed and introduced herself anyway, "I'm Coco, the leader of team CFVY(Coffee)."
"V-velvet." The rabbit girl said shyly.
"Fox." The red-hair guy said, inner Krieg noted that Fox's eyes were completely white.
"Yatsuhashi." The big dude said standing tall.
"Hiii!" Krieg gave a small wave and held it out in a creepy manner that made everyone, besides Qrow, a little tense.
"Why are you out here?" Coco asked, still tense from Krieg's 'hi'.
"The darkness forced me to come here."
"The Grimm forced you from safety? Well, our job was to defeat the Grimm and evacuate anyone we found. But the place was overrun and any survivors didn't last long enough for us to get here. Thanks for killing those Grimm by the way." Qrow stretched out his arm as if to reveal the massacre of Grimm that took place.
"What now?" Yatsuhashi asked.
"We take him with us." Qrow started to walk away, gesturing for the teens and Krieg to follow.
Pandora must have changed a lot if we aren't getting mistaken for a normal psycho, let's go along with them until we can get back to Sanctuary. Krieg tailed behind them as no to little words were said. Krieg looked up at the sky and noticed something out of place. The Hyperion H was not in the sky and the moon was elsewhere. "They must have defeated Hyperion." Inner Krieg accidentally said out load, as in it was barely audible to other people. Krieg was about to hit his head with his buzz axe when Velvet said something that stopped both Kriegs.
"Who's Hyperion?" She asked, turning around and looked confused at Krieg when she heard Krieg whisper. Krieg's eyes widened and he lowered his arm at the random question. Everyone stopped and turned to look at Krieg.
"Hyperion? Is that a shoe company?" Coco asked.
"Hyperion, Handsome Jack, Pandora, Eridium!" Inner Krieg started to blurt out words that the average person on Pandora would know and all he got were confused stares. Insane Krieg was too busy trying to grasp the information of the conversation to stop the sane part of him from talking. "This is Pandora, right?" Inner Krieg's voice left Krieg's mouth and was meet with silence.
They all traded looks with each other and Qrow was the first person to reply, "This is Remnant and I have never heard of Hyperion, Handsome Jack, Pandora, or Eridium. Can you explain more?"
AN: Sorry, it was short, but I felt this was the best spot to leave it off at.
Anything good, bad, or out of place? Review and tell me please.
