Summary: When the world nears its end, the book of prophecy reveals itself to a single chosen individual. The chosen one must then record down anything in the current world that would be worth having in the new world. The journey was difficult enough in a world where the existence of monsters was common sense, but how will Tia fare in the modern world full of scepticism and its own mundane troubles?
Disclaimer: I do not own Avalon Code or any of the characters and such I may use in this fanfic.
Author's Notes: Basically, this is the story of DS game Avalon Code in the modern world. Of course, there will be some differences in the general plot and etc… In the beginning I'd intended to use an original character, but after thinking about it for about 5 minutes I decided to just use the female main character from the game, Tia.
For now it's rated K+ since I don't see any reason, yet, for this story to be rated any higher. As for pairings… I've yet to decide.

"Tia! Wake up!" Louder than an alarm clock and about eight times more persistent, a certain fire spirit was shouting in her ear.
"Mm… Just five more minutes…" With a frown, the girl pulled her blanket over her face as she tried to ignore him. "It's Sunday… Let me sleep in…"
When an unexpected silence followed, she wondered if Rempo had finally given up and was going to let her sleep in that morning. Curious, she pulled her blanket back down and peeked around her room. Instead of seeing the expected scowl and a look of frustration, however, she found him hovering over her desk with an evil grin on his face.
"Oh I remember… This was a very important assignment you wanted to get done as quickly as possible, right?" If his hands weren't shackled, he would have undoubtedly rubbed them together. "Whattaya think'll happen if it suddenly caught on fire?"
"Eep! I'm up, I'm up! Just leave my essay alone, please! I stayed up all night writing that!" She immediately jumped out of bed and quickly grabbed the small pile of paper, hugging it close in a defensive position.
With a scoff, the tiny spirit circled around her and muttered, "I really don't see how that thing can be more important than going around recording stuff for the new world."
Yes, somehow, for an unknown reason, she had become the chosen one for the book of prophecy. Her troubles all began a couple days back when she was relaxing, as usually, at Sunny Hill. She found the fire spirit's bookmark, and a mysterious book suddenly came out of the stone monolith. The world was dying and she had been chosen to record all things of importance for the new world.
"I know, that's a really important task but…" She hesitantly began, "I just can't really accept it. All of a sudden you tell me that the world is going to end and I'm responsible for creating the new world, that's just really hard to believe."
"What?!" Crying out in disbelief, he flew right in front of the girl's face and said, "You mean after doing all that test scanning, kicking monster butt, you [i]still[/i] don't believe in the book of prophecy?!"
"No, no!" Afraid of what may happen, Tia quickly denied it. Even though he had been partially correct. "I just mean it's hard to believe that [i]I'm[/i] the one that has to do all of that."
"Sure you can! You can read the book, you pulled a sword out of it and kicked ass. No other proof needed, you're the chosen one! Now that that's cleared up, let's go and do more scanning!"
In the few days Rempo was with her, it became glaringly obvious that he was very impulsive and short tempered. Today was no exception. Every minute, no, every second of each and every day he constantly reminded her about the duty that was imposed on her. Go and scan important stuff for the book of prophecy, hurry up and explore new places…
Normally she would try her best to convince him to let her continue with her normal, daily life. However, being a Sunday, she had an entire day to spare. "Alright, just let me get ready to go out then."
"Woohoo!" Rempo raised his shackled arms into the air as he obediently stepped out of her room to give her some privacy. He was glad that she was finally going to go out and fulfill her duties. All the other days he'd been with her the girl constantly said something about school and how she needed to continue studying. Well, what good was studying when the world was going to end anyway?
Stepping out of her room, Tia clutched the book in her hands and asked, "Alright. What should we do today?"
"Well, we need to start recording more into the book of prophecy, so why not start with your hometown? Just go around and slap everything with the book!"
She gave Rempo a small sheepish grin as she walked out the front door and locked it behind it. At the moment, it was almost a blessing she lived alone. There was no way she would be able to explain this to her parents if they were alive.
"Come on Tia, the Sun's gonna set at this rate!"
"Alright." She whispered. The girl dearly wished Rempo would remember that unlike him, [i]her[/i] voice could still be heard by others. She had no desire to be labelled a crazy girl who talked to an imaginary friend. It was bad enough she was going around slapping people and various objects with a 'magical' book, if it weren't for the wonderful fact that no one was ever aware of her scanning, she would never have accepted the job at all.

Good idea? Bad idea? Please review!
For anybody who may STILL be hoping for an update in my D. Gray-Man fanfic (although I doubt anyone would wait a year or so), sorry, I'll get on that once I remember where I was going with that story.
