Valoran Battle - Chapter 1

So, there was a time when I played a lot of League of Legends and I wanted to start writing a really big scale series of stories about it. I called it 'Valoran Battles' and wrote a few chapters. The idea is that it tells the story of a certain battle taking place between nations. Here's the first chapter:

Valoran Battles #1 – Zaun vs Ionia

Chapter 1 – Introducing Zaun

"Welcome to Summoner's Rift. Today's match between Zaun and Ionia is about to begin. Please welcome Zaun's first champion."

As the loud voice echoed throughout Summoner's Rift, a blue beam of light gradually materialized near the shop of the south-west Nexus. A few seconds later, a bright wave of light shot out from the beam and suddenly disappeared all together. Where the beam once was, now stood a purple giant holding a massive cleaver. He stretched his muscular deformed body while looking around with a dazzled look over his face.

The loud voice from before could be heard again. "Dr. Mundo – the Madman of Zaun!"

The purple giant raised his cleaver high over his head while shouting. "Mundo!"

"Please give a big welcome to Zaun's second champion of today." The voice continued.

Another beam of light materialized. Once it vanished, a tall man covered in bandages appeared. The man was carrying a huge green tank on his back and holding a large wooden shield. Although most of his body was wrapped in bandages, even his mouth, you could see scars and burned tissue covering his entire body.

"Singed – the Mad Chemist!"

Mundo looked around as if being startled by the loud voice. "Where? Mundo hard to see, sky too shiny outside Zaun."

Singed noticed Mundo and started walking towards him. "Dr. Mundo, it seems like Zaun is really desperate to win this one."

Mundo turned towards Singed. "Come to Mundo!"

"Like always, you look like you had one too many "Shimmer" to drink."

Mundo didn't seem to appreciate Singed humor. "Mundo no need "Shimmer", "Shimmer" is for weak."

"Right… I wonder who else our beloved city is going to summon."

"And for our third Zaun champion of today…"

Singed and Mundo waited for the beam to perish to see who else is there.

"Join the glorious evolution." Part human, mostly hextech augmentations, an odd looking "man" holding a metal staff started pacing towards Singed and Mundo.

"Viktor – the Machine Herald"

Viktor's third robotic hand, stretched out all the way from his back, hovered above his head and started waving to all directions.

"Stop that, this is why I can't take you nice places!" He yelled at his hand. "The crowd is at the Vaskervon Coliseum, who cares?"

Viktor approached the giant couple that was waiting for him. "Ah, the infamous Singed and Dr. Mundo… "

"Humph, so Zaun sent the robot, what a joke." Singed mumbled.

"Mundo thinks… No, Mundo doesn't think. Wait. What? Mundo!"

"Replacing your brain would not even make a difference." Viktor said just as the announcer voice appeared again.

"Zaun's fourth champion is about to get summoned here to Summoner's Rift!"

When the beam disappeared, loud squeaks and steam noises drew the attention of the three champions. A metal human shaped robot started advancing towards the three, his huge hands and metal frame shaking and bouncing all over the place. An odd voice came out from somewhere inside him "Fired up and ready to serve."

Viktor could not believe his eyes. One of his biggest creations was standing before him. If he was just a bit more human he might have felt anger and frustration remembering how the credit for his work was stolen from him. But he no longer human and had much more important things on his mind.

"A golem. They summoned a golem to fight with us. Unbelievable." Singed said in disbelief as the golem was almost near them.

"Blitzcrank - the Great Steam Golem!"

The four champions looked at each other intently.

"Well, I just hope that our last champion is someone useful." Singed said to the other three.

"And last but not least, welcome the final Zaun champion!"

With the four champions waiting for the beam to vanish, the announcer continued "Urgot - the Headsman's Pride!"

Singed said what everyone else were thinking: "Oh my."

Out of the light came out a mechanical lower body consisting of four legs and holding a massive scarred and rotting body on top of it. Formerly a legendary Noxian soldier, this part machine, part body raised by necromantic magic is a huge terror to be dealt with on the battlefield.

"I thought Urgot part of Noxian army. What he doing here?" If it was possible to hear stress in the metallic voice of Viktor, that was it.

"Urgot legend. Urgot strong. Helps us beat those peaceniks." Mundo tried to explain the situation as best as he could.

As Urgot arrived near the four he started speaking. "We must win this war. We… will win this war. Singed will go north, Viktor north-east, Mundo into the jungle, Me and Blitzcrank will go east. Come now… they will know fear."

Nothing else had to be said after that. The five went to the shop and advanced into the jungle together.
