Sheeps and explosions. That's what Louise de La Vallière's dreams were filled with. She liked sheeps, just not when they were blown away by her own magical failures, even in dreams she wasn't even able to do anything great to her biggest dismay. Once, just once she wanted to do something her parents could be proud of, even in imagination land, was that too much to ask, or was the world that determined to screw with her ?

That is when Louise realized even though she was awake, she wasn't actually seeing anything, how most peculiar, aaand that it was waaaay too warm for a pillow. It takes her quite a while to actually start to figure out what was going on before widdening her eyes, all she could see is tan skin, and two beautiful large orbs only contained by a blue lingerie bra that she happened to have been laying between. A small tiny part of her wanted to stay there and snuggle but the other bigger part was absolutely mortified as she realized where she was and who's bossom that was.

She immediately tries to get the hell out of there as face as she could before feeling the arms in her back pushing her back in. Which she probably didn't mind as much as she would say or as much as she should. She still had some dignity god damn it ! If she was seen between the mammaries of a Zerbst, that would destroy her family name forever ! As she continues trying to squirm out, she finally hears some signs of consciousness from the foreign native girl.

'' Mmmmh... please more ~ ''

What did she honestly expect from that lewd beast ? Is what Louise wondered as she really wondered how to get their attention, she didn't especially want to spend the rest of her, fastly coming end of her life, so she tries her best to make out at least some form of communication

'' Wake up you cow ! We'll be late for class ! '' Is what she tries to say but in her position, most of it probably came out of as a bunch of smothered mumbles, but nevertheless, it does manage to wake Kirche up from her sleep, whatever she was dreaming about will most likely remain a mystery.

Kirche does wake up, looking confused, generally when someone woke her up, it was either Tabitha because she was lot, or one of her many fans who wanted a round with her, which is something she never actually gave them, but teasing them with it is what always kept them on their toes and following her around.

So it actually takes her quite a bit to figure out who was talking, the morning syndrome, before she looks down and sees the pink hair sticking out, she raises an eyebrow surprised. Before remembering everything that happened, she chuckles as she finally release the girl from her. Which finally lets Louise get some well needed air, feeling her lungs get filled again was a relief.

'' Oh thank Brimir, I thought I would die right there '' Louise says immensly relieved of having some more time added to her life span.

'' Would you really have complained about it though ? '' Kirche responds with a teasing wink towards the smaller mage, which causes her to blush and clinch her teeth in frustration.

'' Shut up Zerbst ! '' That was all she was able to answer to that and that was something the fire mage obviously noticed, although she decided not to play with that yet, she had obviously other stuff like going to class, Kirche was maybe a shameless flirt but she took her studies as seriously as anyone else, although, yeah, it is a bit more difficult to wake up on some days. And the incident that lead to this didn't exactly thrill her either. As she was stretching a bit, she looked at Louise

'' Zero, please go grab my clothes '' She asked in a nice which was ironic considering the use of the slur, but somewhat authorative voice.

'' Go grab it yours- OUCH '' Louise lets out a small scream as she felt an electric shock that suddenly reminded her of the horrible situation she was in, she looked at her hand and there it was at her biggest dismay and horror. The seal of the Ritual. The picture graved on her hand that will remind her of the day that ruined her entire life. She could remember it like it was yesterday, perhaps because it was. But even if it wasn't, she was sure that she could remember every single minute of it in her mind ten years in the future. Thinking about that brings her back to when this whole mess started.

The day had started like every single day of her life did, but this one was a bit more special, she could feel it, there was a bit of excitement, but she mostly felt pressure, she knew that this was a very important day and that if she failed, she would be forever be casted as the failure most people already pointed her to be. She wanted to prove them wrong, she wanted to show them all she could be even more powerful than any of them. She just need one thing to go her way. Just one thing is all she was asking for.

The previous day hadn't been great with her blowing up a classroom and almost getting detention again, so by all means, if karma was an actual thing, it'd let her have this one be a good day right ? Well, Louise learned a while ago that karma was, forgive the language, an utter bitch, since all of her time at this academy had been bad days so far. So all she could do that day was to believe in herself that from this day on, things will get better. She would succeed her spell, get an awesome familiar and become a mage her family could be proud of. Yes, that is the only thing she could pray for at that time.

She walks down the hall reading her spell again and again, wanting to make sure at 100% that she wouldn't screw anything up while doing the ritual, and of course, like everytime she doesn't look where she is going, she bumps into someone, and that someone was probably the worst possible person that she could encounter. She looks up to see the smirking face of Kirche Augusta Frederica von Anhalt-Zerbst, or as Louise simply called her Zerbst. Because it didn't care who she was, in the end, she was a Zerbst, the bane of her family's existence.

'' Awww, is that the Zero studying before her failure ? How adorable ''

Here was in one sentence most of the reasons why Louise despised this woman, she was shameless, arrogant and mean. Everything she said seemed to have poison put in it somehow, if it actually had, Louise would have died of poisoning a while ago, she looked aside to see a blue haired mage. Her name was Tabitha, Louise... didn't know much about her, she was generally pretty quiet and never really insulted her, she was generally a very studious and calm one. She always wondered why she was always hanging out with that succubus Zerbst, her only guess was that some sort of blackmail must have occured at some point, there just was no way otherwise.

'' Shut up you... '' She wasn't able to come up with a creative insult this time, she just clinched her teeth angrily, shaking a bit

'' You're not gonna ruin my big moment ! I'll finally get one over you ! '' She said angrily

'' Awww does the little one have big dreams ? So cute, do you wanna mommy to hug you too ? '' Kirche answered teasingly, showing off her body as per her usual, probably just to piss Louise off, which of course she did.

To be honest for a few minutes, Louise thought was an incredibly attractive woman, gorgeous even. When she first came to this Academy, one of the big reasons she discovered she was the way she was was most likely her. Did that matter in the slightest ? Absolutely not, Louise still loathed that girl, she would probably rather kiss a troll than having her lips touch hers or come anywhere close. Because it didn't matter how sexy she was, she was still a terrible person who spent most of her day ridiculing her and making her feel bad about herself. This is what Louise kept in her heart for all these years.

She hurried past the two, Kirche was laughing at that while Tabitha did look a little bit concerned for a bit before looking back to her book spells. Eventually Louise did make her way to the field. Several students were already there, not even looking worried in the slightest that they would have the perfect familiar for them, who they would have long partnership with and adventures. Louise was barely able to stand, that was how nervous she was. If she failed here, she could get kicked out of the academy, how would she even be able to face them after that? That was probably the biggest embarrasement she could ever give them, failing to summon a familiar.

She barely is able to focus when the teacher comes to talk about how important this ritual was, talking about basically what was just said in the paragraph before this one. As she tries to relax, a very irritating person sneaks behind her

'' Oh Louise ! I'm looking forward to what kind of amazing familiar you summon '' Kirche said in a very obviously mocking tone. Which made Louise even more stressed.

'' Leave me alone... '' She simply answered, she was too focused to get angry right now about petty things like that.

Kirche chuckles after she does that and goes back to her own usual spot, she wouldn't admit it, but she was also pretty nervous, teasing Louise was always something that cooled her nerves down so that's pratically something she did more by habit than anything at this point, especially right now, that she knew that her turn was coming up soon. Guiche the guy before her summoned a mole which made her laugh out loud, she didn't really like him, even though they did have a few similiarities, they were both big flirts, but while she was doing it as more as a harmless game, he seemed really serious about flirting with other girls, which wasn't something Kirche was a big fan of, but she ignored it, like most people did.

Before she even realized it, it was the Germanian turn to summon, she took a deep breathe and smiled confidently as she took a step forward, she could feel the stink eye Louise was giving her, but right now she couldn't bother with that, it was her time to shine, she wondered what familiar she would get, maybe a salamander ? That would be pretty nice, easy to train and pretty fitting with the type of magic she was using. Either way, she was more than confident than anything she would summon would be right up with the Zerbst's family alley.

She stands in the middle of the field and smiles as she starts her incantation, and of course she decided to be dramatic with it, before, why would she not ? It was her moment.

'' My name is Kirche Augusta Frederica von Anhalt-Zerbst, in the name of the founder and the Great Five Pentagon Powers, I summon thee, who shall be as fierce as I, with the fire and passion to follow the Zerbst family through the fire and danger. Appear ''

As she finished her incantation, she looked impatient for what was to come, although she was surprised instead of a small thing appearing in the air like it did for most people, the spell suddenly made a giant explosion of light that blinded people for a good couple seconds, the spell wasn't supposed to do an explosion, what happened ? Kirche wondered as she got shivers in the back at the simple thought she might have screwed up the spell.

It takes a few minutes for the smoke to disappear, and a shocking sight was revealed, Louise and Kirche staring at each other as the pink girl had just appeared in front of the red haired one. It takes a good solid minute for the both of them to process this before their faces fell on the both of them and they started screaming in terror at the reality of it. Even Tabitha looked genuinely shocked as this turn of event, which was a pretty rare occurance, not that she showed it much but she really was

'' This can't be real, this must be a mistake ! '' Kirche screamed angrily, looking at Colbert, the teacher for answer, but the man was just as clueless as everyone was, this was unheard of, a student had just summoned another student, the probabilty of that happening, it almost gave him an headache trying to figure out how unlikely this was. He coughed, trying to control the situation

'' I... as a teacher this is the first time I've seen anything of the sort, but this seems not to be a mistake, look around miss Zerbst ''

She looks and sees on the ground at Louise's feet, they were runes and symbols, she had genuinely been invoked there. The girl was more than terrified as becoming someone's familiar was the last of her plans

'' I can't be a familiar ! Let me go now ! '' She says angrily, or more panicked than anything really. She was beyond terrified and confused about this whole situation and what it could mean. Colbert was sweating hard trying to figure out something, but there wasn't much he could do right now, there was absolutely no precedent of this happening. At least not in recorded history.

'' I'm sorry miss Vallière but there's not much we can do right now, this has never happened before in the history of this Academy. The ritual has to be completed, otherwise you won't be able to get out of the summoning circle '' He explained

Louise looked at the ground annoyed, she tried to move to get out of there, but no matter what she did, she was always brought back to it, not without some good old electric shocks either, she was on the verge of tears. Why was this happening ?

Kirche wasn't in a much better state either, either she did a much better job of hiding it. Why by all that was mighty, from every being in the entire world did she had to have the Zero as a familiar ? What did she do to deserve this ? Okay, actually she could think of a few things, but nothing that would ruin her life like this ! What would her parents say ? This had a lot of implications and none of them were good. She took a deep breathe, and looked at her friend Tabitha for support. The girl looked generally pretty confused about the situation but tried to give Kirche a smile, which wasn't something she did often, but figured this is what her friend needed right now. She turned back to Colbert.

'' This is only temporary right ? '' She asked annoyed.

'' Well, until we find a solution to this, hopefully yes. '' That did relieve Kirche a bit, just the possibility of there being a solution to this mess already helped a lot. Unfortunately, that didn't help Louise who was still fuming and screaming about this whole thing, the fire mage came to her and put her fingers under her chin, she knew what needed to be done to complete the ritual. Both knew, although one was a lot more horrified by the idea than the other.

Kirche stared into her eyes to shut up, because she knew perfectly she was gonna scream again, Louise did shut up, but only because she had used up all her voice, which Kirche with a smirk used to complete the ritual, pressing her lips on Louise's, whose eyes widden for a second, looking angry, confused and slightly aroused as they kissed. It was mostly Kirche doing most of the work, but Louise did gave in for a few seconds before they broke apart.

Louise stood still for several second, she felt like she was just gonna die from sheer embarrassement any second now, before she started feeling the seal on her hand, confirming her fate, which made her faint. Kirche caught her before she fell to the ground, the crowd, that felt very awkward about what had just occured had been spread out by the teacher. Kirche bit her lip a bit as she held who was apparently her new familiar, she had no idea what she was gonna do. But the only thing she knew is that it happened, and that both of them would have to live the best they could with that fact. At least it wouldn't be boring that's for sure.

Alright boys and girls, this is my first chapter of this story, I feel this one might be a bit short, but who knows ? Here, I'll answer a few questions before you all go, if you haven't before.

Why ? Because I feel it's a ship that's not done a lot, even less as a main ship. Which is a shame since they do have a pretty unique chemistry, in a weird way.

Is Saito ever gonna appear ? : I'll answer that with aaaa maybe. I still haven't figured that one yet.

Is it still gonna follow the storyline ? : I need to rewatch the anime for that, but I intend at least the beginning, to follow some key events, and well, make up some new stuff too along the way. With this premise and the implications, a lot of interesting stuff can happen.

If you guys have other questions, don't hesitate to ask, same if you have feedback, I hope you guys all have a good day and enjoyed this chapter.
