From foe to Friend
Ryu and Neo were walking back to Kuro.
Ryu: Alright Kuro, let's go.
Kuro: What were you two doing?
Neo: Oh you know, just catching up with each other.
Kuro: Oh ok! Then let's get going!
She started cheerily marching before her ears finally perked up. She immediately turned back around speeding to the ice cream haired midget.
Kuro: WAIT YOU TALKED?!!
Neo: Yes, thank Ryu here for that luv.
Kuro: But, huh? Can you preform miracles or something?
Ryu: Sorry Kuro, but do I look like Jesus?
Kuro: Who?
Ryu: Never mind. Anyway how do we get into the castle?
Kuro: Uhhh, that's the part I didn't really think about.
Ryu: ... -_-
Shojo: Well that's a new one.
Neo: Ryu don't you dare.
Ryu: What?!
Neo: We both know good and well that you're going to trying and blow a hole through the side of the castle.
Ryu: Neo come on, we're in another world. I'll be handling this with tact, discreetness, and- Ah I'm fucking with the pretenses if we don't get in by first trying nicely I'm blasting a way myself.
Neo: Fine, just don't do anything that will get Kuro hurt.
Ryu: Neo, even though I find it hilarious, I don't condone child violence.
They walked up to the castle. Ryu noticed the large locked doors thinking to himself.
Ryu: 'Hm, almost like the ones back home. Just smaller and lighter.'
He knocked on the doors most likely hard enough to be heard. After what seemed like a few minutes passed by Ryu shrugged.
Ryu: Oh well, tried the peaceful way, kicking the door down now.
He was about to slam his boot on the door before they heard footsteps.
Neo: That was a close one.
???: *Sigh* I swear this was the worse time to be here cause this place is going to hell.
The doors opened revealing a familiar man with bright red hair and fox ears.
???: Sorry for making you waste your time but her majesty can't be bothered right now. You'll have to wait to put in-
He looked at Ryu Neo and Kuro recognizing the giant and the midget.
Ryu/Neo/Keith: O_O
Ryu: KEITH?!!!
Neo: WHAT THE?!!
Kuro: Uhhh, I thought two said you were-
Keith immediately pulled the three inside as to not cause a commotion.
Keith: For the love of fuck do not do anything yet!!
Ryu: I'M GONNA IF YOU DON'T EXPLAIN HOW THE FUCK YOU'RE ALIVE!!!
Neo: How in the world are you even here Keith?
Keith: And the mute is talking. What other crazy shit will happen today?
Ryu: Keith. Explain. How the fuck. You're alive. I put a hole into you're stomach before burning your body into nothing!
Keith: Well I thought so too. As soon as I saw you flying up with that scythe I new it was gonna be the end. As soon at the flames touched me I felt a burning pain, and then nothing. I don't know how long ago it was, but I woke up in this castle. I saw my wounds were almost healed and didn't know what happened for a bit.
???: That's when I told him how he crashed behind the castle and I saved him.
They all looked back seeing a girl with jet black hair and a kind smile.
Keith: Queen Yumia?
YUMIA!!
Keith: You shouldn't be out of bed ma'am, you're still recovering!
Yumia: Keith don't worry, I'm fine.
Ryu: Uhhhh am I gonna be to one to point of that she looks like she's still a teenager?
She giggled hearing that.
Yumia: Thank you Ryu, but I can assure you I'm MUCH older than that.
Ryu: ...
Keith: If you have to know she's technically 129 years old.
Hearing that made Ryu question his very existence looking at that woman.
Ryu: I... BUT... WHAT THE..... Ugh, Keith just... Just answer how you're alive before I lose it.
Keith: Well, I was thinking you might've known the answer. They only one I can think of is a bunch of nonsense.
Ryu: What do you think my powers are?
Keith: Fair point. Well it's either you hit me so hard I'm in a delusional coma, or your flames where so hot that it tore through space and time bringing me to another dimension.
Ryu: Ahhhh shit my flames actually can do that.
Keith/Neo/Kuro/Yumia: Wait what?
Ryu: Yeah that's a long story.
Yumia: Well, that's quite odd. But more importantly, why have you two come here?
Ryu: Well, I was hopping to find out if there was a way to get back to our world, but since Keith is here I think I know the answer.
Keith: Don't be so sure.
Yumia: There is currently someone working on a portal to return you to, Remnant, correct?
Ryu: ... *Sigh* Yup that's about right.
Keith: Yeah you guys might be fine, but I'll probably have to worry more about surviving this world.
Ryu: I now have two other questions. First off, why the hell do you say that, second, why couldn't either me or Neo use Aura when we first got here?
Keith: The first one is because I promised to help try and free the other kingdoms of the tyranny of literally the shiniest rulers you can think of. For the second one, it's pretty weird honestly. I've been here for around 4 years but my body stopped aging.
Ryu: It's only been around 2 fucking weeks for us!!
Keith: Yeah I think the time dilation had something to do with the aura thing. For Magic I don't have a clue.
Kuro: Wait, you're really trying to free the other Kingdoms ma'am?!
Yumia: That's correct. The guards have been struggling to travel quickly enough though, so Keith here has had to do much work by himself.
Ryu: Hm.
Neo: Ryu...
Ryu: I didn't imply anything Neo.
Neo: You and I both know good and damn well that you're about to say, "I guess we can help out to make the process go quicker."
Ryu: Oh wow, what a great idea ice cream!
Neo: Wait I didn't-
Keith: Well I guess if you're up for it.
Kuro: Come on Neo he took down the Gator Man with his bare hands, you both will be fine!
Neo: -_- Damn you.
Yumia: Well, Keith has told me tales about your overwhelming power.
Ryu: So, when do we start?
Keith: I'm leaving to go back to the East tomorrow. Should take a round trip of 2 days if everything goes smoothly.
Ryu: Right. My Semblance isn't back yet but Magic will be more than enough.
Keith: Don't worry, it'll come back in small increments. That's how it worked for me.
TIME SKIP!!
Keith: Alright, you guys ready?
Ryu Armor
Ryu: Yeah.
Neo Armor
Neo: Just about.
Kuro: Be safe you three!
Yumia: This world can be dangerous children, be careful.
Ryu: Eh, probably not as dangerous as an immortal and a god damn dragon so I'll be fine.
Keith: Beacon relic?
Ryu: Mm.
Ryu grabbed Neo as he began to float up as Keith created wings of flame for himself as they flew away.
Ryu: By the way, I've been wondering about a certain something.
Keith: What?
Ryu: You should already remember everything about your past now right?
Neo: Umm, I feel like I'm missing a bit of context here love.
Keith sighed as he looked to the side.
Keith: Really wish I didn't right now.
Neo: Seriously what am I missing?
Ryu: Yeah, I figured it was you.
Ryu looked at the fox ears on his head.
Ryu: Tyson.
Neo: What on the world are you talking about?
Keith: Ok Neo, long story short, I knew Ryu when we were kids, but I was nearly killed when the White Fang attacked where we lived. I didn't know where I was and I didn't know how I'd survive. That's when Salem found and brainwashed me, having some of my memories disappear for what I thought forever. And years later when I finally met them again I didn't even remember nearly killing one of my old friends, and my twin sister. Dumb part is I had to wear a mask to not "Reveal my Identity further."
Neo: Oh...
Ryu: Yeah pretty painful huh?
Keith: -_- I did it before you, you can't say anything.
Ryu: Fair enough, but you felt it when you were freed, I was conscious and aware after a point.
Keith: Yeah whatever.
Ryu: Look on the bright side, when we get back, Karma is only gonna smack you for a few minutes.
Keith: Not~ really looking forward to that.
Neo: So wait, if your her twin, how did Ryu not recognize you.
Ryu: Cause they were kids back then. And they're 8 years older from when I saw them side by side.
Neo: I guess that's fair.
TIME SKIP!!
After a few hours they were outside of the North and in the borders of the East Kingdom. Immediately Ryu noticed that that atmosphere was already denser than the North.
Ryu: Ok, so shit definitely has been fucked up here.
Keith: That's what 150 years of having a tyrannical ruler here does.
Neo: 150 Years?
Keith: Word to the wise guys, none of the Rulers are as young as they might look. They're not human either. All of them have lived at least of 300 years with the exception of Queen Yumia who's ruled since she was 29.
Ryu: So what, are they some kind of immortals?
Keith: Not exactly. The average for them is around 2000 years.
Shojo: Eh, still younger than me.
Neo: Ok, then how will we be going in?
Keith: Well since I already weakened their defenses a while ago, as soon as we're over the castle, Ryu's preferred method.
Ryu: GUNS BLAZING MOTHER FUCKERS!!
They flew into the area seeing blood staining the ground as well as small homes.
Ryu: Yeah I can't even say I've never seen cruelty like this before aside from Salem.
Neo: Um, you've got to give just a tad bit of context here love.
Ryu: Let's just say I was doing some borderline questionable things in another world.
Keith: Portal gun?
Ryu: Yup. Anyway let's see if a Semblance came back yet.
Ryu held up his hand as sparks seemed to form before a wall of the castle exploded.
Ryu: Eh, pretty unsatisfied.
Keith: Yeah, normally one of your explosions is enough to level an entire forest.
Neo: I'm sorry what?
Ryu: Yeah. I pretty much put a gaping hole in the Emerald Forest during the Initiation so this is pretty mundane.
They flew in seeing a very large man on a throne.
???: So you've come back to face my like a man have you Keith?!!
Ryu: What the fuck?
Keith: That, is King Gazelle.
GAZELLE!!
Ryu: THAT'S A FUCKING GOBLIN!!!
Neo: Now I know why they must live so long. They're not human!!
Gazelle: Of course!! You think anyone as weak as a human could ever rule any kingdom?! Especially mine?!!! These maggots must be ruled with an iron fist!!
Ryu: ...
Neo: Ryu? Hello?
Keith: Give it a sec.
Shojo: This is when you know he confused and pissed.
Without him even realizing it Ryu's entire body began to glow in a red and blue aura.
Ryu: So you're telling me... That you're making people's lives a living hell... Just because you're stronger?
Gazelle: And what if I am?!!
Keith: Uh oh.
Ryu's eyes glinted red as he appeared in front of Gazelle ready to kick his head off. The King however had time to react and block with his club before standing up and trying to send Ryu crashing through a wall. This failed through as he landed on his feet bouncing back like a spring and punching him in the face, although he didn't go much further back due to the size and height difference.
Shojo: For reference, this guy looks like he's about 4 times the weight of your average car.
Ryu: Shit, gonna be a little tougher then I- SIKE!!!
He dashed forward before disappearing and kicking him in the back of the head. This time only with much more force as he went flying forward.
Keith/Neo: O_O.
They both looked at each other before shrugging and running in to fight as well. Keith brought out a katana clashing with Gazelle's spiked club. He smirked as Neo had jumped off of his shoulder kicking Gazelle in the jaw making him stumble back. His eyes glowed in a dark aura as he roared.
Gazelle: YOU TRASH!!!
He rose his hand as dark magic had appeared in it.
Keith: Ah shit watch out, that dark pulse will drain everyone of their strength!
Ryu: Then I just won't let him get the chance!!
He ran forward as the aura around his hand seemed to extend out as it took the form of a blade. Ryu himself had no idea how that happened but focused back up cutting off Gazelle's hand..
Gazelle: BASTARD!!!
Ryu wasn't finished as he brought his hand back forward slicing his head off.
Ryu: The only kingdom for monsters like you is hell.
CHAPTER END!!
Fang: Ok so I know I have some explaining to do. Have I said I would update this story soon in the last update? Yes. Did I wait a few months to update? Also yes. The thing is I was dead set on waiting for the next volume, and I didn't know that they'd actually be sent it another world too. I was also dealing with the hells of high school BUT IT'S SUMMER NOW!! So I guess I'll have to go off my own cannon now. Thank you for 3K Reads by the way. Hope you enjoyed.
FANG OUT!!
