I saw a light… then just… nothing. Completely black. Blank. Why is there nothing?... I wait for what seems like an eternity just to see me. Falling slowly in some kind of red water. Suffocating. Everything that's around me is suffocating me. It's too much. Eventually i reach the bottom of this.. ocean of blood. That's the only thing i could think of. I feel emotions swirling around, like the current in the water, slowly but surely getting stronger. Much stronger. Unbearably Strong. So much so that i see the floor lifting and twirling while my body endures all kinds of abuse.
I feel an unexplainable amount of rage. One that is uncontrollable. One that would make me a wild animal in a corner. One that would turn me into a beast. One that would turn me… Evil.
Gradually my body gets torn up in this current of emotions. Limbs flying off only to serve to redden the water more, if it wasn't red enough. Eventually it the emotions die down. The water is now a blank color of dark, dark, murkiness. I feel nothing whatsoever. As if the emotions i just went through were nothing but illusions. But i know that those emotions i just experienced were not illusions. They were very real.
My body slowly comes back together, until, after what feels like another eternity, it is fully repaired. My body continues to change in more ways than one. Eventually i see an orb of pure white light, dispelling all of the murky water. I feel my soul get healed, sort of like when my little sister smiles, ear to ear. It brings great joy to my heart. I feel extreme bliss, and happiness. The light reaches me and lays next to me. Everything is clear and i feel that the light is what i need in my life. I feel that the light is my purpose. My everything. I give my body and soul to the light. The light does the same i did for it, to me.
Eventually i surface from the water and open my eyes. I see a fire, burning, and yelling. Wanting to do something. Something that i feel is very similar to rage, but makes me feel gratified. I'm grinning wickedly and the light is next to me, where it should always be. I Then jump out of this box of dreams, jolting me awake, like a bolt of lightning.
*GASP*
I try to grab air as i feel like there is none in my body. My ears are ringing and my vision blurry to the point i cannot see. My vision gets better and i start to see where i am. I start to hear better as i rummage my legs on what seems to be a bed. I look around and see i’m on a bed much better than the one i have. ‘Red sheets?’ i question. I don't own red sheets. This is not my house. The bed is too large and there is a curtain covering my surroundings. It looks like i’m in a bed a king would sleep on. ‘Where could i be? Surely not in a house of somebody that i know’ i question yet again. I then begin rummaging through my memory. ‘Thats right! There was an earthquake… i think? If i remember correctly, there was also a bright light. Wait…. A bright light? I CAN'T BE DEAD CAN I?!?!’
I begin to worry, thinking that i might have died, when suddenly- ‘Voices… better hide. i don't know where i am and for all i know i could've been kidnapped’. I begin to worry about myself being kidnapped while pretending to sleep, but then i remember about my little sister. What if she was kidnapped? What would people do to her? I can’t have that happen. Eventually i can hear the voices clearly, but then i notice, ‘Thats June, i’m pretty sure!’ i say in my head. I also hear a small and cute voice replying back. ‘That has to be Lily. She sounds relaxed and so does June. I don't have to worry’ i think. I sit upright and wait for them to come in and open the curtains surrounding my bed.
“Oh you’re awake?”(june)
“Miiii!!”(lily)
June has a wide grin as he noticed that i am awake and lily looked at me with a teary expression while she outstretched her arms jumping onto me. She continues crying in my arms as i tell her it's okay. ‘I don't know why but this always soothes my soul!’ I said in my head with a wide smile. June then looked at me with a serious expression. I put my little sister to the side of the bed and asked June what happened.
“So… Where am i, why, and what happened?” i said with a serious but questioning face and tone
“Well… Don't be shocked, but we are… not on earth”(june)
“...”(mikos)
I give a stupid expression.
After some time he filled me in on everything. I was in a coma for two days?The school got transported to another world, that is like ancient europe? We are gonna fight in a war against other people, monsters, and demons? There's monsters and demons? There's Demi-humans and beastmen? THERE'S MAGIC!? ‘What in the actual fuck is happening’ I say in my mind as i was processing all the information. This is something that obviously can only belong in novels and anime.
Never in reality because… You know what? Who says magic doesn't exist? Who says other worlds with life doesn't exist? Who said demons and ghosts and monsters don't exist? Humanity still has too many unknown things. So many in fact, that its uncountable. So why not right? Yeah. I got a headache and i don't wanna think.
Lily is alive and well, i'm alive and well and i'm pretty sure my friends are alive and well as well. I’ve been sleeping on a kings bed for two days and i feel so well rested like never before. I feel great… although i did have that weird disturbing dream. I can't really remember it well but it must’ve been a good dream because i have a nice feeling in my heart.[/font][/size][/color]
“So why did the entirety of the school agree to fight in this so call “war”?” i ask
“Well… we apparently each have special magic and powers that would make us ridiculously strong… and a “god” transported us, asking for help.”(june)
“...A god huh…”(mikos)
Wonder where he/she was for people on earth. I guess it's because of a crowd mentality as well. One person agrees and then the next. A domino effect. Well, one things for sure. I'm not fighting no war. And neither is my sister. June also said that out of the 5000 kids and teachers in the school, i am the only one that fainted. weird huh? Well whatever.
June went to go and get my other friends, Alec and Lan and my class teacher, Ms. Ria. He also went to tell the king, and the king's family that i have awoken. Am i really that important, to meet a king of a kingdom? Better fix my hair and look at least presentable.
In the meantime i chatted with Lily about what have they done so far. She said that they separated into many groups and went to train with many different knights. Apparently this Kingdom is not a Kingdom but an Empire. A huge one at that. How big? I don't know, but to call 5,000 people a battalion, it must be pretty big. A regular army would have 20,000 to 30,000 people. Battalions reach the double digits so…
Time passes and i hear footsteps. ‘Must be the king and company… better fix myself up’. The king walk in with what seems to be his wife, the queen and 2 people, one girl and one guy, both around my age. Accompanying them was my teacher, Ms. Ria and my two friends, Alec and Lan.
“Hello there young one. My name is Rydell’vi Nimriamde. Call me Rydell, The king of The Great Empire of Nimriande. This one next to me is my wife, the queen, Linhild’vi Nimriande.”(king)[
“*snicker* It's a "pleasure" to make your acquaintance.”(queen)
“Ahh.. Same to you. My name is Mikos Peri, and next to me- I mean behind me is my little sister Lily Peri.” i said while lily was peeking out of my side.
The king had very long gray hair and a somewhat long gray beard with what seems like a regular body build. He also had dark black eyes. The queen had Long purple hair with a face that had too much makeup. ‘A bitch huh…’.
“These two young ones right here are the 1st prince, Kerriath’vi Nimriande and the first princess, Kirina’vi Nimriande.”(king)
“It's a pleasure to meet you Mikos, call me Kirina, and may i say you have an interesting name.”(kirina)
The princess, Kirina looked at me with somewhat lewd eyes. ‘Like mother like daughter’ I think, chuckling in my mind. She is indeed beautiful, but who knows what kind of STD’s she might have. I’m not desperate anyway.
“*scoff* It's also “nice” to meet you”(kerriath)
He greeted me for the first time with a mocking impression. Wow… For royalty they don't really have manners do they? Well whatever. As long as something bad doesn't happen to my little sister or me.
“Yes, same to you”(mikos)
I greeted them with a smile.

“King Rydell, may I ask a question?” I ask
“Please, ask away, Sir Mikos.”(king)
“How do we know what kind of “magical” power we have?”(mikos)
“Oh, hahaha… We took a drop of blood from each man and woman to create mirrors of identification.”(king)
“Mirrors of identification?” I ask the king again
“Yes. It is self explanatory. It shows everything there is to be displayed about yourself, such as your name, race, abilities, and many other things.”(king)
“Useful…” I remark
“You are currently in the palace, and will soon be transferred to a noble house with your sister, along with other people. In five days each and every person will get mirrors of identification. Till’ then it is best to train in hand to hand combat and a weapon of your choice. I have matters to attend to so I bid you farewell.”(king)
“Goodbye.”(mikos)
I see the family walk out, only to see the first princess look at me with somewhat lewd inviting eyes, but yet again I don't feel the need to “do it”.
My teacher and my friends look at me, filled with smiles.
"Finally awake sleepyhead?”(lan)
Ian greeted me in a mocking, but playful tone. I chuckled a bit.
“It's great to see you fine mikos.”(ms.ria)
Ms. Ria greeted me with smiles, which I then returned back.
"Have sweet dreams space traveller?”(Alec)
I laughed at his reference, which was a perfect situation and time.
“Yeah… I'm fine, though I don't know why I blacked out.” I say back to them.
'Well not that it matters. I'm fine now' i think
]We continued chatting for what seemed like hours until knights came to take, surprisingly enough, Lily, Me, All my friends. I asked why all of us, and he said it was the nobles doing because he hear that these three people are my close friends, and moral support in battle is important. ‘What a nice noble huh?’ I comment. The guard also told me he is one of the top nobles, that is also close to the king.[/font][/size][/color]
[color=#000000][size=small][font=Arial]I say my goodbyes to Ms. Ria, and give Lily a piggyback ride till we arrive outside. Outside, there is a golden and white carriage with two large steeds in the front.
]They look too big to just be steeds so I deem it a creature from this world. It's like a horse that is multicolored on steroids with a very large mane. It's color is mainly black and white. I greet the driver and walk inside the carriage. ‘Pretty spacious huh? Nobles really are rich’ I say in my head. After around 30 minutes of chatting on what seemed like an unexpectedly smooth and comfortable ride, we arrived.
A man, who seems to be in his late forties is waiting in the front entrance of this scenic mansion. He is relatively fat, and seems to be covered in sweat. He is also balding… ‘Well, I hope his looks counter his personality…’ I say hoping in my head. My friends, Lily and I move out of the cart and by the entrance.
“Welcome, welcome, to my grand abode!”(noble)
“Please, It's a pleasure to let you have us stay.” I say with a wry expression.
“My name is Pentius Entocus. Please call me Noble En.” He says shaking each of our hands.
Each and every one of us greeted him and exchanged brief words. He then offered to show us a tour of his “estate”. I think it is too large to be called just an estate. Everything in this world seems too nice and convenient. But I guess that's how you treat a guest right? Well whatever I think.
We get shown around till the sun starts to set. He also showed us each of our individual rooms. Conveniently enough, our rooms are each next to each other. Lily and I are sleeping in the same room but separate beds. My friends each have their own rooms. Our rooms also seem like carbon copies of each other. The only difference being is the arrangement of each room. All the beds are also large and unexpectedly comfortable.
“Please make yourself at home… Oh and before i forget, please wash up in the bath before going to sleep! Don't want to get the bed dirty right? Hahahaha….”(pentius)
“Yes, thank you for your hospitality.” I say, somewhat surprised at his personality.
We all go to our individual rooms to get clothes for the bath. I then go to the bath with lily next to me, but unexpectedly find that the bath is too large for one person. There is a banner separating gender, and the bath seems to take up the entire hallway. I see a beautiful maid with silky looking skin and hair, with dog ears approaching me. She has sharp purple eyes with deep blue hair.
“Good day master.”(maid)
“Y-Yeah… Good day ummm…” (mikos)
“Please, Call me Rufia.”(rufia)
“All right then… Rufia, how may i help you?”(mikos)
“No, it is i who will help master. I will escort you little sister, Master Lily to the bath with me, who will wash her up.”(rufia)
Usually i wouldn't let people take Lily away to anywhere. Much less, the bath. But for some reason i feel i can trust her. Must be her fluffy ears. Man i wanna touch em. Must hold on. Eventually i will touch some animal ears. I didn't notice but she also has a tail. She is also very curvy. Ahhhh can't imagine anything… I'm going in a public bath now…
“Lily, go with this lady to the bath. It’s big and you might get lost. She will help you around.”(mikos)
“O-ok… whatever y-you say Mii.”(lily)
She then walks out of hiding behind me and greets the maid. She seems incredibly shy, but my soul and heart can't help and be happy when i see this. ‘Ahhh, lily is too cute…’. Now don't get me wrong… I'm not a Siscon.. it's just familial love, ok? She’s my only family left anyways.
I continue down to the entrance when i hear someone calling out behind me. It was all three of my friends, Alec, Lan, and June. I greeted them and we walked into the bath. Before we went in, we saw many women enter the women's bath, many of which are beastmen and demi-humans. I wash up in the bath while Alec and Lan are trying to climb up a wall that seems as big as the Great Wall of China. They tried over and over but eventually gave up with extremely despirited expressions. I finish up washing and put on a towel. I dry myself and change, and at the same time everyone else is finishing up. We go outside and i see my little sister Lily, waiting with the dog demi-human maid. Her name was definitely… Rufia! That’s it.
“Thank you for taking care of my sister!” i shout out to her while walking to their location.
“Ahh yes no problem. Your little sister, Lily here is very cute i daresay.”(rufia)
“T-thanks big sister!” Lily says in a loud forced voice while she looks down blushing.
“No problem Lily. I will do it anytime.”(rufia)
We part ways and i head back to my friends with lily. We start talking about what we heard do far.
“Hey Mikos, did you hear? Some new people from our school are coming here tomorrow. I wonder who it is… Hope it's a hot girl, Hahahahaha”(june)
I chuckle and reply back.
“Well whoever it is, i hope it's not someone who is stuck up… You know how our school is.”(mikos)
“Yeah, the majority of the school is like that so…”(june)
“Well, i’ll think about it when the time comes. Till then, i'll enjoy myself.” (mikos)
“M-Me too!”(lily)
We all Laugh with wide grins and head back to our rooms. Food was personally delivered to us because tomorrow we are going to have everybody in the mansion. Till then we will wait on a banquet. Night hits and it's finally time to sleep, after a day i would never forget. So very eventful. I'm pretty sure no one in our world can say that there was something bigger than getting transported to another world. Some technology that's still being researched. Teleportation.
I go to bed and nearly fall asleep, until i hear lily. She usually has nightmares about our father and mother and things like that. I get up and put her next to me in my bed. I stroke her head till her scowl of fear is gone and fall asleep in the process. For me this was normal, so for once in this world, i felt relatively at home.
