Warcraft 3 The Familiar of Zero Ch.1

Earth: Japan

Saito Hiraga slowly woke up and stretched in bed. To him today was Saturday and he was going to do his favorite past time. Playing Computer games, but before he could do that he got dressed in his clothing. After putting on his favorite parka he went to his Laptop and turned it on. Fully powered thanks to his extra battery life and portable solar panel he began to browse his game list.

"Now what should I play?" He said to no one in particular. He gazed at the games and came across one title that he thought had gotten rid of Warcraft 3 The Frozen Throne. A grin appeared on his face and he clicked the title. While the game loaded he took out his game notebook that he used for playing games. It had cheat codes, hints and bits for him to remember. He turned to a certain page and read over the cheat codes that he wrote down for the game he was about to play. Once he read them he clicked his profile The Hiragan Forces and then the custom games button and chose a special map. It was a map where he could build anything and spawn anything as well with unlimited resources. And if he wanted he could go for the extra detail and make things lifelike. Once the game loaded and the game started he began his building of a kingdom. "Just need to spawn a Peasant and start building."

And so he did he clicked the human spawner and clicked five times. "Better get the building block for what I'm going to build now than later." He then moved his cursor over the Paladin hero unit and clicked once. "Lets see maybe I'll stick with a regular hero unit than go with a custom one. Too familiarize my self with it." And as he did various other things like make the Paladin level twenty to keep it alive for a while. Summoned five Acolytes and a custom Acolyte hero that he made level twenty in a different area. About five Peon's and a level twenty Farseer in another. One very random Pandaren Brewmaster who he made level fifty. He then refocused his efforts back on the human units he had. "Better get some ground troops to reinforce my level twenty." Saito said happily And as he clicked the Footman unit about twenty times a big green orb formed above his head and he was completely oblivious to it until it was too late. Next thing he knew himself and his laptop along with the little notebook were gone.

Halkiginia: Tristain: Tristain Magical Academy

Today was the day of the annual Familiar summoning ritual. Which meant that the second years students were all waiting on one another to get their familiars.

'Oh Founder what have I gotten myself into.' Was the thought of one pink headed girl. She wasn't really paying attention and was more freaking out. 'What am I going to do If I fail, stupid Zerbst making me blab my big mou-.'

"Ms. Valliere?" Her teacher called out interrupting her thoughts.

"Y-yes!?" She stuttered out.

"It's your turn for the Familiar summoning ritual." Her teacher said kindly.

"O-ok Mr. Colbert." She said a little shaky. And proceeded to the middle of the summoning area.

"DON'T FAIL NOW LOUISE!" A dark-skinned red-headed girl called out. This caused the rest of the students to laugh and Louise to get angry.

"Quiet down now." Mr. Colbert said sternly. Then turned his attention to Louise. "You may begin." Louise stepped up and took a deep breath and began.

"I beg you. My Slave, who lives somewhere in the universe!" Louise said while slowly raising her wand in the air. And causing many of the other students to question her choice of words.

"Whats that Chant?" A girl with Blond hair in the shape of drills asked. Then an equally blond boy with a frilly shirt slid next to her and she looked at him and he said.

"Well, it is unique."

"Oh sacred, beautiful and strong familiar spirit!" Louise said continuing the chant. A blue headed girl with red half glasses slowly looked up from her book to watch Louise's summoning by her blue dragon familiar. "I desire and here I plead from my heart! Answer to my guidance!" And she waved her wand in the air and then pointed it in front of her. The result was an explosion and dust forming everywhere. With fellow second year students coughing out.

"I knew this was going to happen." One said while still coughing. The same blond-headed boy was still coughing and then noticed the blond girl with the drill like hair on the ground crouching.

"Are you alright, Montmorency?" He asked while offering her help to get up. The same girl remained crouching and he asked. "Whats wrong?"And she simply pointed to where Louise was and he looked on over to his direction. She then gasped out.

"H-Human?" Cause there on the ground was Saito Hiraga lying motionless with his laptop on him and notebook by the side.

"That outfit, he's a plebeian no matter how you look at it." One student said from the crowd.

"Y-Yeah he is a plebeian. Without a mistake." Another Student called out. Meanwhile Louise was barely grasping how this was her familiar.

"T-This is the sacred, beautiful, and strong.."

Halkiginia: Albion: Unknown forest

In a forest a bright green circle showed it's self from that circle exited out five dark robed with blue Acolytes and one special dark Acolyte with a staff. Each were unconscious and the special Acolyte was the first to wake. Using his staff to support himself he viewed around his surroundings. He saw nothing but forest for as far as he could see. Looking to his fellow Acolytes he said to them.

"Arise my brothers." One by one the five Acolytes rose while saying various things.

"The damned stand ready..."

"Thy bidding, master?"

"Where shall my blood be spilled?"

"Yes, master."

"My life for Aiur..." This caused all of them to stare at the one who said that. "Er– I– I mean Ner'Zhul." The one Acolyte corrected himself. The Acolyte with the staff was tempted to summon a Sacrificial Pit and volunteer him to sacrifice himself and be a shade. But He would need orders to do that before he could also he would probably receive it as an honor. Speaking of which He currently wasn't receiving any orders. He then called out to the person that usually give's him orders.

"Master we are ready what is thy bidding." He received silence. "Thy bidding, master?" He called out again and still silence. He had begun to worry never had the master just not answered their calls. Though usually his magic would take control of their minds and they would be forced to carry out his will. The other Acolytes were beginning to wonder as well why they were not being ordered to summon the buildings for their base.

"Maybe the master wishes for us to build a base." One suggested, he did have a point some time's in certain scenario's a base would be already built along with a small force of troops and then he would take control.

"Alright one of you focus your energy on the Necropolis Two of you focus on the Ziggurats I want a perimeter. You last two build a Graveyard and a Crypt I will focus on the Altar of Darkness." He ordered out and in unison each Acolyte said.

"Thy will be done." And each set out to their respective work area. Meanwhile the Leading Acolyte stared at the sky wondering what was going on.

Halkiginia: Germania: Unknown plateau

Like the forest a bright green circle appeared and out came five Orc Peon's and a Orc Farseer riding a great white wolf. But instead of unconsciousness they were all awake. The Farseer Immediately set the Peon's to work. And though some of them complained they trusted the older Orcs wisdom. For Farseer Fenris'ar Gulor or Fenris to simplify it a great tragedy has befallen him. For he had lost connection with the great spirit. The spirit which guides him and the rest of his Orc companions And ever since they landed he had been in a meditative state trying to reconnect with the great spirit to no avail though. He has been able to commune with the lesser spirits and ask them of the great spirit but some didn't know and others were appalled that a Orc was able to commune with them. When he asked they simply told him that the Orcs were mindless beings. This insult was taken with no hostilities towards the spirits and the Farseer accepted that. He did manage to gleam some information from the Earth Spirit about the land he was in. And of the abuse of magic by these Nobles who treated their own kind badly. This did not sit well with the old Orc. When he was done he used his magic to call the Orcs in the surrounding areas. Though the Peons managed to build a suitable base they would need reinforcements for when these Nobles decided to attack. He would immediately begin the defense of his fellow brethren and continue to fight those that were hostile.

An Orc Grunt who was recently trained walked up to the Farseer and addressed him.

"Swobu Farseer we have managed to set up a base and await your orders." The Farseer hummed in approval of this.

"Excellent! Now we must wait for our fellow Orcish brethren to answer my call. Proceed to the defense of our encampment." Fenris ordered.

"Dabu!" Was all the Grunt said and proceeded to do as he commanded. Fenris examined the base camp they built and was impressed of what they built-in such a short time. There was the Great Hall where their Peons answered the call. Two Barracks too train their troops, an Altar of Storms to call upon heroes to aid them in battle. Two War Mills with all the steel upgrades which should hold them for a while against enemy's. The first of the Spiked Barricades upgrades if they get sieged. Several Orc burrows around the camp. And Watch towers with Orc Burrow's reinforcing them. As for their forces which he was surprised when they no longer had a food limit. They had four Peons for every Burrow which in this case they had eight Burrows. Twelve Grunts each one either patrolling the camp or outside the camp as well within range of the Watch Towers. And twelve Troll Headhunter's also patrolling the camp and the outside of the base. He hoped these Noble wouldn't come for some time. For it would be a struggle.

Halkiginia: Unclaimed land: Border of Gallia

Like the forest and the plateau the same bright green circle appeared and dumped out something. In this case it was twenty-six human's, twenty Footman, five Peasants, and one Paladin. Like the Acolytes they were all unconscious, the first to rise was the Paladin leader named Malak the Free. Once he was awake his aura seemed to awaken the others. Then he put everyone to work including himself. The Peasants knew how to build the buildings while the Footman basically took up some hammers and did as told. With everyone pitching in they were able to build a Town Hall in record time. Then came the farms, again everyone pitched in and still built-in record time. Next came the Barracks, this made the Footman really happy and they worked even harder for it. Afterwards the Footman were put on guard duty, while the five Peasants and Malak continued working on the base. It was until they were attacked by an Orc raiding party. With no suitable defensive guard towers the Footman were really hard pressed. Luckily with the call to arms the Peasant's donned their Militia armor and helped kill every single Orc. Only five were critically injured but with Malak by their side and a quick fix of Holy Light spell they were immediately ready again. Then they set them selves on upgrading their weapons. And that's where the Dwarves came in. Originally brought in to be Rifleman Malak set them on the path to upgrade their weapons and armor. And being Dwarves who prided themselves on superior building and weapons they happily obliged. With Dwarven ingenuity and Malak's devotional aura they were able to build a Black Smith a Lumber Mill, Workshop, Arcane Sanctum, Altar of Kings, Gryphon Aviary, and upgrade their Town Hall to a Keep.

And that wasn't the end of it. Soon they had defensive Cannon Towers, Guard Towers. Steel forged equipment and refined gun powder and reinforced leather armor. Along with most of the things that could be upgraded. They even called a Mountain King to take over some of the responsibilities. Without a doubt they were ready, but for what?

Halkiginia: Tristain: Outside of Tristain Magical Academy

Tatsa Sweetbarrow was a happy-go-lucky Pandaren. So when he was dumped at where ever he was he did it while smiling. To him this was opportunity, opportunity to share with others the many brews that he has produced over the years. And to discover new ingredient to put in his brews. So with a happy smile he grabbed his keg, an wooden reinforced Bamboo staff that held on ribbon tied bottles of Pandaren brewed necessities. He set out on his journey to share with the world his finely refined brews.

Halkiginia: Tristain: Tristain Magical Academy

Louise Francoise De La Valliere stepped forward and looked down upon the person that she summoned.

"Who are you?" She asked him, Saito couldn't understand her and said.

"What?" While rising from his lying down position and looking around. "Where am I?" He said after looking around. Saito then looked at the person in front of him.

"You don't understand what I'm saying? Which Plebeian are you" Louise asked him.

"English?" He replied then went to look at the other students that were staring. "I guess not. Besides..." The same dark-skinned red-headed girl walked up and said.

"This makes all you said worth it!" She then closed her eyes and rose her arms in a gesture of shrugging and continued. "I never would have guessed you'd summon a plebeian." Then she started to snort and that triggered some of the students to smirk. Louise stared at her rival with a very annoyed expression.

"It was all a little screw-up." She retorted. While Saito was looking around and found his Laptop on him and his notebook by his side.

"That's The Zero Louise we know. You never fail to meet our expectations!" When her rival finished She laughed and the rest of the students laughed as well. Saito looked up to Louise and asked.

"Hey-" But was interrupted by Louise shouting something in a language he didn't know but with the force that meant it.

"Shut up!" Louise then walked over to her teacher Mr. Colbert. "Mr. Colbert?"

"Yes?" He answered.

"Please let me summon again." Louise pleaded. Colbert just shook his head no and said.

"I can't let you do that." This caused Louise to nearly almost shout.

"How Come?" Meanwhile Saito looked around and found his Laptop and note book while freaking out.

'Ok something is definitely going on around here.' He thought to himself, he picked up his laptop and inspected it for any damages. 'Good there's no damages.' He thought relieved. When he opened his laptop the screen he saw the screen go right back to his game. Only it was no longer the map he was on. 'Holy crap everything looks so life like... Hey wait a minute.' He saw one thing that got his attention. A unit that looked just like him. 'Woah this is some inception crap going on.' He clicked the unit that looked like himself and that's when he felt like he was being touched and grasped by the shoulders. He looked around and found no one near him, but he still felt like he was being grasped. That's when he started to freak out a little and he closed his laptop. And the feeling went away. Meanwhile Mr. Colbert was explaining the reason why Louise couldn't retry the summoning ritual.

"This is a sacred ceremony that determines a mage's life. Redoing it would be a desecration of the ceremony itself." Saito dumbly looked at the person who was talking not understanding a word he said. "Regardless of whether you like it or not, he has been decided as your familiar spirit."

"I don't know what there saying, but judging from what they're wearing, these guys are whacked out." Saito said while Mr. Colbert continued to talk, he grabbed his laptop and notebook and slowly crawled away on his fours, not even being noticed. Until Louise grabbed the back of his collar and started him while being choked.

"But I've never heard of taking a plebeian as a familiar spirit!" Louise said after stopping Saito from crawling away. When she finished her sentence the students all began to laugh. Saito just thought they were all assholes due to their laughing.

"Whether it's a plebeian or not, there will be no exceptions." Colbert said sagely. "Continue with the ceremony." This dumbfounded Louise and she panicked.

"With this?" She said whiningly while poking Saito in the back with her wand.

"Ow. Ow." He groaned in pain 'BITCH!' He thought, Colbert steeled his gaze getting rather impatient and ordered Louise to continue.

"Please do it now Louise, or would you rather be expelled." This caused more students to laugh and Louise just sighed and said.

"Okay." The young Valliere stared at Saito with a most hateful glare. Saito took it upon himself to craw away a little bit faster while exclaiming.

"What!" He stopped when he dropped his notebook. "Crap!" He gathered it as fast as he could and turned around to face who ever was behind him.

"Go for it, Louise." The same dark-skinned redheaded girl cheered out. Louise twitched an eye of annoyance then came closer to Saito.

"You'd better be grateful. You'd normally never get this from an aristocrat." She pointed her wand at his face. "My name is Louise Francoise Le Blanc De La Valliere." She then crouched down to him. "Pentagon that governs the five powers. Give This person your blessing and make it my familiar spirit." She then grabbed the back of his head and he freaked.

"What do you think you're doing?" He shrieked, she glared at him and venomly told him.

"Just stay still." She then closed her eyes and pecked out her lips and drew her face closer to his.

"W-Wait, wait, wait." She neared closer. "Wa... Yo... Hey..." Even closer. "No, I mean... Hey... Um...Hey-" Their lips connected, Saito was wide eyed while Louise had her eyes closed. She then backed away and re-stood, Colbert walked by Louise's side and commented.

"Looks like the Contract Servant finished without any problems." Saito was pissed that steam seemed to form from his left ear.

"Hey, what was that about?" Then his whole body felt like he was being slowly introduced to heat. "My body feels hot." Then he glared at them and almost shouted. "What did you do to me?!"

"It'll end soon." Louise plainly said. "A familiar spirit's rune is getting carved onto you." She explained.

"What?" Saito said still not able to understand them. Then he gripped his left hand for it started to be in pain. And soon the runes were left and he collapsed with his Laptop in hugged tightly around his body.
