Chapter 1: Destruction/Renewal

Well, here He was, embracing his fate. To save his friend He consigned himself to total destruction of his existence. He was waiting for the end to just embrace him completely. All traces of his existence gone. He saved the world, or destroyed it, depeding on one's viewpoint. Actually, he didn't remember anymore. Maybe this was his punishment more then a reward. He slowly started to forget... Wait what was he forgetting? Is this the part where he finally fades out?

"Your time in this existence is over." Oh, there was a voice now? "Unfortunately yes. You see, in your self obliteration, you aren't aware that there's always going to be a single shred left. This will be put into a copy someplace where another "you" can possibly be happy, should your former friends investigate it."

What was this voice saying? Was this sacrifice all for nothing, he'd possibly go back and be with... Whoever it was the voice mentioned. Wait, he? Who was he?

"You cannot go back." He couldn't? But he said that... "Only a copy will remain. However, this small shred of who you are, cannot truly be destroyed. Only moved. Where to is up to you. There are two choices. Pray you choose wisely."

Two choices, huh? He visualized two doors, and looked at both carefully, before going towards one of them. "Is that your choice? You cannot take it back if it is." A pause occurs, and He cannot know why he made this choice. All he understood was very simple. He made a choice. "Very well. Good luck." He was going to question the voice on why but the door opened and sucked him into the doorway before closing. The next thing he knew, he was falling, he didn't know where he was falling. Or how long, for that matter...then soon, everything was all white.

Imperial Capital: Local Hospital

"I need to see my sister! Let me through damn it!" Shouted the blonde haired general as he tried to move nurses and doctors aside.

"General Budo you must understand the situation. The news of the death of your brother in law several days earlier has induced the labor two weeks early." stated a nurse trying to calm the raving military official. "There's nothing to be worried for."

"But how will she raise the child without help?! I have to-" Before Budo could rant any further, a cry pierced the silence of the hospital. Several nurses walked out as a doctor wiped his brow exhaustedly.

"Congratulations General. You have a nephew, he's healthy and the mother is just fine. But she needs some rest for now." the doctor said, "You'll visit them as soon as they both get some well deserved rest. She told you to tell you the name of your Nephew."

"What is his name?" Budo asked.

"His name is Nier. Quite the peculiar name." The doctor said. "Any significance?"

"Actually there is. The Westerners call a large meadow that name. It's where My brother in law was killed." The general replied with a sigh. "He hoped to stop the current strife and prejudices. Caim was always an idealist." He then went to keep a vigil, for a time before possibly heading back to the Military grounds. He made a silent vow though, no matter what would happen, he would try to make the Empire a safe place for this child.

9 years later: Home

The young nine year old sat despondently in the living room of his home, he couldn't understand it. He was named after the field his father died in, people mocked him for his pale white hair, and his mother tries her best to raise him. Young Nier stared at the book in front of him and felt the overwhelming urge to try and beat the darn thing senseless.

It wasn't alive but the stoic face it wore, it made him very very sick of looking upon it. But before he could make a clear decision, he heard heavy footsteps walking into the living room. He knew those steps well. Before he knew it, the footsteps stopped right next to him and sat down next to him. He looked up to find the sharp blue eyes of his Uncle staring at him.

"Your mother wants you to spend some time with me this summer. I hope you'll understand why it'll be good for both of you." The General stated. "You're mother's family has a long military history in the Empire."

"I still don't understand. Is it more for my sake, or is it to have my mother take a small break of me?" Nier felt Budo's brows furrow, "Sir."

"Nier, no matter what you think of us, Your mother, my sister, loves you very much. And I swore to do whatever it takes to help her. Say what you wish, but I will help you as well." The General turns to look at the book and shakes his head and smiled, a rarity, and patted the silvery white hair of his nephew. "Do you know what that is?"

The boy shook his head. "This is called an Imperial Arm, or Teigu. Very powerful weapon or item of great power. There's a lot of things about them that you may yet learn. This one belonged to your father." Nier's eyes widened as he looked at the book.

"It is called Book of Shadows: Grimoire. The cover was made from the skin of a powerful Danger Beast and the Paper written in it's blood. That's all I know about it Nephew, as your father never got it to bond with him. Normally this would be in a Vault with other unused Teigu, but I suppose your mother wanted you to have it. Totally unsur-"

"It looks ugly." Nier stated. "I don't like it's face." As he said this he poked it in one of its eyes. Budo only chuckled, and patted his head once more.

"I shall see you this summer." The General said as he walked away, Nier left to keep poking the book. By the time His uncle truly left, did something truly happen.

"Stop! For the love of all that is Holy stop poking me!" Shouted a voice. "Who dares to poke the most powerful tome in existence?! By my Pages, you are a bit young to be activating me." As this was stated the book started to float.

"Agh! Talking book!" Nier shouted.

"Of course I speak. Some Teigu are sentient after all. See here though, you are to cease this poking at once if we are to have an honest partnership from here on boy. I don't know why you awakened me, or what forces brought us together, but you are the first person to touch the Powerful Grimoire Weiss! My very name brings even Danger Beasts to their knees!"

"O..Kay?" Nier said puzzled. "Mom and Uncle are going to be so mad that I did...whatever this was."

"It is confusing but believe me, I wouldn't have woken if I didn't find you... Promising. I admire your pluck. I believe together we can be something this Empire can greatly look upon."

"Alright Mr. Weiss." Nier replied.

"Don't you dare abbreviate it! Address me by my full and proper name!" The Grimoire sighed. This was going to be a long partnership.


Well, this story started to float around in my head for the past week. Nier is Basically in the World of Akame Ga Kill now. I couldn't figure out an appropriate Teigu for him to handle so, I essentially made a Teigu version of Grimoire Weiss, because let's face it, their partnership is perfect.

Remember to review and let me know what y'all think! -BlackXII
