Nearing the end of Persona Royal finally so my writing rate's gonna be shooting back up soon. Such a fun day, well worth the purchase. Also the first Persona game where I've ever gotten max social links in one run! So I'm proud of many things. Anywho, this is an idea that's been kicking around in my head for a good while now, and while I understand while it happened, doesn't mean I wasn't sad to see the end of the original Natural Wonders. If you don't know what that means, look it up on TFS. If you do...well, you know what's coming. I own none of the properties I write about here. I don't claim to, nor have I ever. What I do own is the time I use to write however, and any bits thrown towards me help me write for longer, as its genuinely something I enjoy. Available
Chapter 1: Hi, I'm Eloy! OR "You always have Eloy~"
When the world around him erupted into flames, Eloy knew something went wrong.
When he heard what sounded like Angels crying for the final time, and the screaming of Captain Ezra calling his name, Eloy felt a sinking in his gut.
...oh, wait, nah, that was just the floor beneath his hooves cracking and, whoops there was the sea he was falling into from thousands of feet up.
Pistachio wouldn't be able to stop his fall, he had no Scrolls of Featherfall, and even if he did he probably'd be too tired to actually make use of it.
"Welp. It's been a good one. And I could even call this the opposite of a rockslide!" Eloy rasped to himself as he simply fell, eyes tearing from the fall and ho own emotions even as he felt a lightness to his heart.
'Sorry Scrung, guess I'm not helping ya find yer ring. Sorry Grammy, I'll miss your Something Stew something fierce. Captain, Wake,...Red. It's been a good ride.' The goodbyes raced through his mind, even as he saw the final impact coming closer, understanding that while this was the end, he didn't regret a thing.
'Mama...I'm comin home.' Was his last thought as he looked straight upward, seeing the Azamar Citadel in its entirely crack and shatter with a second sun blooming from its center.
Unfortunately, because of this decision, he also missed the large green portal that had appeared directly under him until he had completely passed through it.
"Wha-! Wait, this isn't the Crow Zone~!" Was all he was able to let out before the portal snapped shut, leaving only debris and burnt out husks with wings to fall to the darkening seas below.
(SCENE CHANGE)
Louise felt her teeth nash together as she stared at the summoning circle. She felt the tears begging to well from her eyes, but she refused to let them through in favor showing this. STUPID! CIRCLE! HOW SHE FELT ABOUT IT RIGHT NOW!
This was her third attempt to summon something. The first attempt resulted in a small fire that had to be put out by Professor Colbert before it could spread, the second only threw up a massive smokecloud that got her hopes up as the perfect dramatic entrance, but only left people coughing as it settled. Now, this was her last attempt. Summon something, or be expelled for the semester, and be permanently branded as a true failure.
"Please...please. Answer my guidance, you who can show the world my potential! My talent! Appear before me!" Louise half-whispered as she shut her eyes in concentration, aiming her wand forward as firmly as possible, flooding as much willpower as she could into it.
She didn't hear a mass explosion go off, which was encouraging, but she was confused at what she was hearing. Some kind of high-pitched squeal?
"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~!" came from above her, getting louder as she saw a speck get closer and closer.
She could just make out four legs...did she summon a horse? DID SHE SUMMON A UNICORN!? No, wait, as it got closer, she saw it was too small to be a unicorn...DID SHE SUMMON A PONY UNICORN!? Oh, her girlish heart already loved it, neverminding that it was falling from the sky.
Which was why her happy and excited disposition shattered like a stone through glass as whatever she summoned finally landed on the ground, all four limbs as she counted hitting the ground as a solid shiver went through its body. While the bottom she recognized, the top made her brain come to a halt, as where a horse head should have been was instead a torso wearing a simple cotton shirt with armored bits covering it as a sort of vest.
The two stared at eachother for a moment, both shocked into stupors for different reasons.
"First off, OOOOOWWWWWWWW. Second, Hi! I'm Eloy! Don't suppose ya'll have any healing potions on hand?"
Oh, it talked as well.
After that, both passed out on the grass, if again for different reasons, leaving only a class of mages to panic and get first aid attention.
When Life Closes a Door, Jump Out A WindowSo I have more ideas for this one specifically, but this is all I'm writing for the moment. Sleep beckons.
