ANOUNCEMENT: Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that this is my first attempt at writing a fanfic, or any story at all really, so I apologize in advance if it turns out to be utter shit (pardon my English). I'm going to rate this story a T, and constructive criticism is encouraged. Now on with the fic!

Disclaimer: The only thing I own is my OC.

Chapter 1:

The last three years have been complete Hell. The Earth is in ruins, every ancient temple that I have spent every waking moment in the apocalypse training from have been obliterated. And to add insult to injury, I may be the last human left alive.

They came quickly, almost like a 750 mph hurricane. Call them what you want, demons, aliens, monsters. The truth is, they're evil, with a capital "EVIL."

I was just about ready to give up at that point. And then, suddenly, a glowing, green mirror-like thing appeared out of thin air.

Maybe this is finally the end, I thought.

So I walked up to it, and touched it. When nothing happened, I tried to take my hand away. Instead, I was thrown into it. The next thing I knew, I was surrounded by smoke and dust. And when it all cleared, I was in the courtyard of a school like building.

In a panic, I looked upward. And, quite unexpectedly, I could faintly see the shape of two moons. Then took in my surroundings. I was definitely in a courtyard, filled with, I'm assuming, students in robes and black capes, wielding sticks that I guessed were wands. Which means I'm no longer on that Hell hole I used to call home.

And directly in front of me, was a beautiful girl with pink, rose smelling hair, and reddish pink eyes. She's maybe 4 foot 11 inches tall, and has a relatively small bust line. Either I'm dreaming, or I've died and gone to heaven. Guess I'll just play along for now.

"This is supposed to be divine and powerful? Mr. Colbert, can I do the summoning ritual again?" Asked the pink haired angel.

"No! The summoning ritual is sacred, and to complete it more than once would be desecrating an ancient tradition!" Said a man who looked about 26, whom I assumed was Colbert.

"Looks like you've failed again Louise the Zero!" said a dark skinned girl with flaming red hair and an enormous set of knockers. So the Angel's name is Louise. And the nickname "Zero," She must be really powerful then. However, judging by the look on her face it was meant as an insult.

"Shut up, Zerpst!"

"Hold up, where in the Hell am I?" I said

Colbert answered, "You're in the Tristain Magical Academy of Halkegenia."

"My gut was correct then? I'm no longer on my own world?"

"Most likely."

Finally, a chance to start over. A second chance at life.

"Who are you?" Louise said

After thinking it over a bit, I decided "My name is Skyros."

"Louise, I'm sorry but you have to complete the familiar summoning with him." Said Colbert

Familiar? I think I know where this is going.

"You should be grateful, peasant," Believe me, I am. "Pentagon which governs the five powers, grant this person your blessing and make him my familiar." Louise chanted, and then kissed me.

Afterward I felt a burning sensation on my hand. Had it not been for my constant training I would have cried out in pain, instead I said "What is this?"

"That rune… It's the mark of a familiar." Colbert said

"Okay, that explains a lot. So, whats with this peasant-noble business?" I asked

"Peasants are non-magic users while nobles can use magic."

"Looks like you summoned a familiar that has just as much magical capabilities than you do, Louise the Zero!" and with that several people rudely burst out laughing.

My anger skyrocketed, and my azure eyes turned scarlet. "ALRIGHT LISTEN UP!" I yelled, "THE NEXT PERSON TO INSULT LOUISE IS GETTING HURT! UNDERSTAND?!"

"Oh, yeah? Prove it!"

I ran at the boy who dared me, and with my speed it was like teleportation, and stopped inches in front of him with one of my shurikens at his neck. Getting a better look at him, I'd say he is 5 foot 9 inches tall, around 18 years old, blond, and he's an arrogant snob. "You done?" He responded to that with a gulp and a nervous nod. "Good" After that my eyes returned to normal.

I grinned and said, "So, where to first master?"

"W-we have to go to classes now." she said, blushing horribly

"Lead the way."

"O-okay."

Later

The class droned on, until the teacher (I think she said her name was Mrs. Spruce, or something like that) said "You will all now memorize a spell of basic alchemy." she pulled out three ordinary stones and chanted, "Rel In Yon." and the stones turned to brass.

"Wow, did you turn those into gold?" Kirche asked, clearly amazed

"No dear, brass. Now let's see if one of you can cast this spell" she looked around and stopped at Louise "How about you, the one taking notes?"

I looked down at her notebook, she was doodling

"What is your name?"

"Louise ma'am," she stood, "My name is Louise Francois de la Vallier."

"Uh, I think it would be better if you pick someone else, Ma'am." said a chubby looking kid on the other side of the room

"Yeah, its too dangerous to let her try. Let me." My anger was rising too fast for me to pay attention to who said that, I think it was Kirche.

"Guys, what did I tell you about the insults?" I warned them. That should shut them up.

"But if she does it. . . "

"Louise is the one Mrs. Spruce picked so she'll do it."

I looked at Louise as is if to say "Go ahead," which she responded to by nodding and walking toward the front of the classroom. Honestly, what is everyone so afraid of?

"Please, Louise, stop it"

"Your distracting me, so be quiet. Rel In Yon."

I sensed an immense buildup of explosive energy coming from the stones, then they exploded.

"*cough cough* Well. . . I didn't see that coming"

The rest of the day was uneventful, so I stopped paying attention.

Louise's room

"You tried to make gold, didn't you?"

"What?"

"In class today. You tried making gold, right?"

"Yeah, why?"

"When was the last time you put in less than 100% of your power?"

"Uhh. . ." she sat down at her bed.

"Yeah, thought so."

"What does that have to do with it?"

"I think the reason you keep failing is because your always overdoing it."

"Really!?" she stood

"But, what do I know? I just got to this world. Try going for a metal less valuable, like copper." I pulled out a stone and placed it on her desk.

"Are you sure?"

"Positive."

"Okay. Rel In Yon." An explosion happened, "See, that always happens." Then the smoke cleared, to reveal a shining piece of copper. "*gasp* I did it!" She, then, rushed to hug me. "Thank you!"

"See I told you'd get it." Yeah right. That was a piece of copper coated in paint. "Now let's get to bed, you need your rest." I jumped and nealed in the air, which reversed my body's gravity sending me to the ceiling.

"How did you do that!?"

"The boots I'm wearing allow the user to reverse their body's gravity, by kneeling in the air. You do the same to return to normal." I explained, laying down on the ceiling

"Isn't that uncomfortable?"

"Not really. It is a little disorienting to wake up to reversed gravity though. Normally I'd tie myself to something nearby to keep me from going up to high while I'm asleep. However, there's a ceiling now, so I don't need to worry about that much."

"Oh, okay."

"Now go to bed, would you? I can tell you about everything I can do in the morning."

Once I was sure she was asleep, I snuck out and headed to the library. After an hour of research, I finally found what what I was looking for.

The history of magic. I says here that there is a fifth element that was lost a long time ago, called 'Void Magic' and only one person was capable of it. This person was called Birmir the Founder, and he had five familiars. It is said that he wasn't capable of the other elements no matter what he tried. That's it! Louise is a Void Mage. Now I just need a Void spellbook.

I looked for another hour. Here it is, a book of Void spells. After looking through it a bit I took it back to Louise's room, hid it in the ceiling boards, and went to bed on the ceiling.
