Re/Fate: Grand Order

Chapter 1: Explosion

"Mommy! There's a giant hand behind you!"

"Crap, did I just blinded the dog!? Might as well use the chance to run!"

"Can I really prove my family's name back into the magus world?"

Failure, Idiot, Can't even do a simple spell.

"You are nothing but a disgrace to us, I regret passing my magic crest into you."

Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up...

SHUT UP!

Username Matched.

Welcome to Chaldea, Hiroshi Yamada.

The same dream once again.

"nh..?" ...White and clean... Not a single speck of dirt around me as I opened my eyes, getting used to the light as it seems that I had lost my consciousness...

"ugh... What the- my head feels heavy and hurt..."

Lifting my hands to message my head for a bit, I feel a weight on my chest.

"huh?"

"fou!"

Hm? I think I just heard a sound of an animal... It sounds high-pitched and usually would belong to a small adorable creature... looking down at my chest, a white fluffy creature that resembles a small puppy sat on my chest as they move closer to my face, then-

"whoa! H- hey, stop licking my face!"

I grab the little creature and pull them out of my face, somehow, they had the strength to get out of my hands and ran away.

"...What a strange creature..." I said to myself as I stand up from the floor, looking around the white halls and noticing the windows with seemingly never ending storm of snows outside... So this is Chaldea huh? I wonder why they're so stubborn to invite a newbie magi who only knows how to use two spells like me...

*tap!* *tap!* *tap!* *tap!* *tap!*

-! I hear the sound of hurried footsteps, turning around. I saw three people walking in a hurried manner, a girl and a guy around my age and also an older guy behind them, the girl has short pink hair with a bang that covered her left eye and the guy is a black haired Japanese that's giving me the generic self-insert harem protagonist vibe... Must've been my imagination, while the older guy seems to be normal... Well, aside from his fashion style.

They stop on their tracks when they're close enough to me, the girl stares at me with me with her lavender eyes and says, "Ah, excuse me. You're wearing the uniform too..! We're going to get late to the orientation, let's go senpai!" As the guy beside her agree with a nod.

"Eh? Y- yes!" I reply a bit stuttering, Surprised by this sudden encounter. I follow them, or rather the girl as she leads us to the command room where the orientation takes place.

________________________________________________________________________________

"So, that concluded the briefing! Now, we shall proceed with the mission of team A." Said the white haired girl in front of us, the director AKA Olga Marie-Animusphere. Is the one responsible directing this facility, at such a young age at that... Well, she might be older than me for all I know. Shortly after she was done with the insults and trash talks to get us in the line, the black haired guy who was with the pink haired girl and the green fashion guy from earlier was thrown out of the room because he slept while Director was trash talking.

Then she finally explains our missions, to investigate what had caused an anomaly in 2004, Fuyuki City. Apparently there's something causing time to change, resulting in humanity extinction if not taken care of and that's what Chaldea is for.

Time travel sounds crazy, but I believe it enough since magic exists. And besides, this could be my chance to prove my worth. We were guided to the Rayshift room where they'll put us in a coffin to ensure our soul transfer to a different time and space safely. Wearing the suit, which is quite tight and feels a little uncomfortable for me. I get inside the coffin after Director was done telling us what to do. Can't they choose a better name though? How is a coffin the correct name for a device that's supposed to keep us alive?

The glass closed and I brace myself...

Only to see the melting skin of Director's face, her body was blown into particles of bloods by a large explosion that unfortunately my coffin was very close by.

.....

...I can't feel my legs... everything hurts... Even with my hazy sights, I can see the destruction around me... Looking around, I saw the pink haired girl from before with a large fallen structure over her lower half... Ah, I can't let her alone like this... I try to stand up... Yet, I couldn't... Damn it!

-!

Bloods... pool of bloods enters my sight as I realize why I couldn't feel my legs... or even my lower half at all... Beside me is my own lower half... half of my guts is getting eaten by the fire..

"ah... aahh.. AAAHHH!!" it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it!

My scream was muffled by the raging flames... dissipating my hope for help... No, no, no, no! I don't want to die yet!

"H- help, anyone..!" No one is going to help me, I know it... Clinging to a small spark of vain hope won't do anything...!

"the hands!" The spell or maybe not even magic itself, I can conjure two invisible big hands from my back. Some sort of magic ability I had since I was a kid... I use it to drag my dying body, slowly toward her, ...But it seems that I don't have to since the black haired guy from before was already there for her... Ignoring the rambling of robotic voice above me, I close my eyes... Unable to fight the unconsciousness taking over... And here I am hoping that I'll finally prove myself...

"I love you"

Was the soft words of someone spoke to me as I feel a hand dragging me away... Perhaps to hell...

_____________________________________________________________________________________

"Fou!"

"eh?"

Huh? This fluffy creature again? I try to lift the creature away, only to feel as if I'm trying to lift a giant boulder.

-!

I pat my legs, then move my hands to my waist. Feeling my waist still connected... That can't be a dream... was it..? The pain I felt... It was too real...

[CHAPTER END]
