Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Ragnel
Previous Chapter Next ChapterRahsaan woke up in an odd room looking around confused.
Ragnel was sitting in a chair, he smiled when he noticed that Rah was awake spoke "Hello their young one who may I ask are you?"
"Hello I'm Rahsaan, where are we and why does my head hurt so much? Did you kidnap me oh god you you going to rape me and sell me as a slave aren't you help!" he then tried to run away while screaming his head off.
Ragnel was in front of Rah in the blink of an eye "if I wanted to have my way with you I would have done it while you were asleep, so calm the hell down before I knock you out...again ok just calm down and to your other question we are in my world, and for the next few years you will be training under me an-,"
before Ragnel could finish Rah was freaking out talking in a kind of frenzy. "What a few years I don't have that kind of time I have to be there for when Frag comes back!"
"calm thy tits your in another dimension time moves differently here only ten months will have passed in your world, also I wouldn't recommend trying run around right know seeing as your not a pony any more and your body is probably still adjusting to that," Ragnel had explain all this like it was the most simplistic thing in the world.
Rahsaan just sat their stunned "s-so I'm not in equestria anymore?" Rah asked Ragnel just shook his head "I'm not even a pony anymore soooo what the hell am I?" Rah asked a little overwhelmed by all the new information he was receiving and even though he had asked he was kind of afraid of the answer.
"You are a human now like me on the planet Orion, but right know that's not important we are going to test your skills, you should be able to get up now all your skills and magic have been transferred to this body just do what you normally do in your old body and it will be translated into this one so don't worry about that,"
Rahsaan just looked at Ragnel before smiling widely and saying"seems legit," Rah got up with ease opened his new hand and summoned a small flame into it Rahsaan started to look his new body over until Ragnel stopped him.
"Here swallow this them come outside," Ragnel had given Rah a bright green pill before he walked through the door.
Rahsaan just looked at the pill for a long time before shrugging and popping it into his mouth and swallowing it, suddenly Rah fell to the ground in pain as the alchemic concoction went to work he could feel his bones adjusting and thickening inside his body and as quickly as it had happened it was gone "that freaking hurt what was that?" Rah got up and started walking toward the door moving a bit stiffly "ahh my bones feel bigger than normal what did he do to me?" he then opened the door and walked out.
As soon as Rah walked out he saw Ragnel sitting on the ground waiting for him "how are you feeling stiff? bones to big for you body?" Rahsaan nodded "good that means the ogre bones vigor is working and I wont have to hold back, now then come let's spar," Ragnel got up walked up to a pair of thick steel leg gauntlets with glowing enchantment symbols on them and slipped his feet into them and got into a ready stance.
"uh I don't know about this I wouldn't feel good about beating up an old man so I-," suddenly Rah was sent flying by a lazy kick from Ragnel he flew several yards away before he was stopped abruptly when he crashed into a tree "hey what was that for that...actually didn't hurt but still old man if you want a fight you got one," he then summoned his scythe and charged.
Ragnel smiled and took of his shirt and placed it to the ground, it immediately sunk several feet into the ground, it also revealing several scars and burns on his body, not only that his body was pure muscle not on inch of fat could be found "bring it kid lets see if we can teach you a few things."
Rahsaan and Ragnel trained together for five years he learned several alchemic recipes, his close combat increased dramatically, also after a mishap with some chemicals he added Greek fire to his arsenal, one thing he couldn't seem to get was enchanting He learned a few minor enchantment like how to reinforce something but not to much.
Rah and Ragnel where making a potion when the portal opened Rah looked at Ragnel with a bit of sadness because as the years when by they had forged a close friendship "well I guess this is it I have to go back now," Rah said with looking at the ground sadly.
suddenly Rah felt a hand under his chin making him look up "do not be sad my friend maybe we will meet again, but that's not important right know I have something for you," Ragnel handed Rah a beautiful blue topaz that sparkled in the magically in the sunlight.
as soon as he touched it symbols flared to life on the stone and slithered up his arm and into a tribal tattoo with the alchemic symbol for fire and illusions mixed in, Rah then looked at the stone and it to had the same symbols glowing brightly on it and the words 'Procella ignis' engraved on it "what's this Pro-?"
Suddenly he was cut off when Ragnel quickly put hi hand over his mouth "I would rather you not burn my house down and set a bunch of volatile chemicals ablaze, Procella ignis or fire storm these are your words of power you say these words and the very ground under your feet will erupt in hellish column of fire, so yeah I would prefer it if you didn't do that in my house I like it this way any way it's time for you to go."
Rah nodded "yeah I guess it is until we meet again."
Rahsaan walked toward the portal but turned once more to wave good bye to Ragnel one last time before walking through and was gone.
