2nd fanfic. Furuuba cross-overs! XD Don't own this and that etc. Also some things in this FE fanfic will change so I apologize in advance. (Geez I round like Ritsu Oo)
Also this might mostly be about FE than Furuuba so…you get the picture.
Victoria scratched her head. Her black hair waving about with the long white beads. It hurt so much. She hated sleeping in inns since their beds were mostly solid hard. It annoyed her but she was starting to get used to them. She was a traveller, well mostly a Shaman-in-training but her teacher said that she was a most un-usual student she had ever seen. Most Shamans or Druids can only use Dark Magic while Victoria can use slight Light as well as Anima magic. This frightened the teacher so she sent Victoria on a survival course and only to return till she was 20 years old. Victoria didn't want this but she loved her teacher with all her might, even if she feared her. Apparently, there was a monk staying in the inn too. He was really beautiful which was quite strange for a man. His long, blonde hair enchanted her severely. What was she thinking? Falling in love with a monk? It was prohibited in her school as well as the monk society. She had to think of something else than this man…but she couldn't stop starring at him. This was one-sided love. Perhaps she should just tell him he's beautiful so she can stop thinking about him but she couldn't. It was too embarrassing for her.
She began to read a book since she was bored stiff. Her birthday was soon and she would then turn 19. She couldn't wait though what was the point? There would be no-one to celebrate it with her. Then she heard a loud knock on the door.
"Miss Victoria! Miss Victoria!"
She opened the door to see the inn keeper exhausted.
"What is it? What's wrong?"
"There's bandits. They're after this boy. I don't know what his name is but..please drive those bandits away…I beg of you."
Victoria had to think about this. Bandits here? It was unusual and they were after a boy? Now this made things a little interesting. No choice she thought. She rushed outside and found a group of people. A Sacean woman was with them so they couldn't be the bandits. She saw that beautiful man with them.
"If he's on their side then I must do the same" she thought.
She walked over to them and a cavalier with crimson armour stood in front of her.
"Who are you and what do you want?"
"I merely wish to speak with your leader."
"What? What do you want with her? If you're part of these bandits I shall have to slay you were you stand."
"Enough Kent!"
I was that Sacean woman.
"Let me see her."
"Yes milady."
The crimson knight bowed and left.
"Now" began the Sacean woman. "What do you wish to speak with me about?"
"I wish to join your army. These bandits have caused some trouble with the inn keeper and I just want to drive them away. I am a Shaman by profession and I want to be of some use to you."
"A Shaman? I heard they were quite indeed powerful. Very well. Do as you please."
"Thank you miss…?"
"Lyn or Lyndis of the Lorca."
The Lorca? There were survivors? This made things even more interesting for Victoria. She bowed and went to join the army. She was quite impressed with the people they had. A Pegasus knight, two cavaliers, an archer, a cleric, a mage, a nomad, a thief, that monk and the kid that the inn keeper must have spoken about. Why were the bandits after him? Poor thing. Well she couldn't do anything to change their minds so she had to fight along side them.
"Lyn! I wish to fight too!"
"What? Can you fight?"
"No…but I'm a bard and having a bard around is useful."
"Nils…this is no place for a bard! You'll be killed!"
"Don't worry milady! Watch this!"
Immediately the kid called Nils began to play a tune. Victoria actually quite liked it. It made her feel happy.
"Well?" asked Nils. "What do you think?"
"Hmm…I quite like it. It refreshes me. You should play for me sometime. Very well you may join."
"I won't let you down!"
Things went smoothly. Lyn attacked the axe wielders. The cavaliers attacked the swords or the axes. The Pegasus knight attacks the swords, the mage and the monk attacked from behind as backup, the cleric healed…basically everyone was doing their jobs. Victoria was mostly attacked since women were always seen as weaklings. She didn't mind this one bit. It was part of her survival training but each time an enemy came to close to her a certain green cavalier came into the picture and slayed him down.
"Are you alright?"
He had a bandana around his forehead. He was actually quite handsome thought Victoria. "This is no time for thoughts like this!" she thought to herself.
"I'm quite alright but thank you Sir Knight."
"Very well but be careful next time."
He rode away to the front lines slaying anyone he could. Quite impressive thought Victoria. She was now attracted to the cavalier. "Geez Vic you really are an idiot. No wonder sensei put you into this training."
She took out her Flux tome and cast it upon the enemy. They were soon drawing closer to the boss, in Victoria's opinion, or the main head of the bandits. He was a Shaman like her but something about him seemed to familiar yet she couldn't put her finger on it. They drew closer and closer and closer. Victoria was far too close to him so he sent out a Flux spell. She managed to dodge it with ease but then she heard him spoke up.
"V-Victoria?!"
How did he know her name?
"Who are you? And how do you know my name bandit?!"
"So it is you. You've grown indeed and I'm not surprised that you don't recognise me. It's me, Heintz."
The it popped back into Victoria's head.
"M-Master Heintz?! What are you doing here? And with these bandits too?"
"Heh the same reason why you were sent out here…"
"Survival training?"
"Survi-No! Wait, you mean that your teacher send you out here for survival training?"
"Yes. Didn't sensei tell you that?"
"No. She told us you were away on a mission…so she lied…that wicked shrew. I'm here on a mission. To eliminate a certain woman named Lyndis of the Lorca and to retrieve a boy called Nils. Know any of them?"
"Wait you're here for Lyn and Nils? But they're good people! How can a great master such as yourself be after these people?"
"Orders from an organisation and from your Sensei. But if you're with them then that makes us enemies. I'm afraid I have to kill you."
"Same goes for me. Good-bye Master Heintz."
She cast a Flux spell but Heintz dodged it. He was her master so no wonder he could have done that. This was becoming troublesome for Victoria. Why did this have to happen? She had killed people before but to kill her master? It was something she could never do. Then a bolt of light came and struck Heintz. He fell down in pain but he was still alive. Victoria turned round to see that it was the blonde man that had cast the spell. He cast another one which struck Heintz near his heart. This time he was defeated for good. Victoria wanted to hold back her tears but she couldn't. She ran towards him and grasped him tightly.
"Master Heintz! Please…don't die! I still have so many questions I still wish to ask you!"
He opened his eyes. His vision was blurred. He knew he was dying and smiled.
"You…were…one of…the greatest students we ever had…you'll be fine and…you're sensei…watch out."
With that his head plopped to her chest. He was now dead. Victoria let out a cry of pain. Her master was dead. Dead. Why? All these things ran around her head. All the thoughts of life and death zoomed passed her. She felt a warm hand touch her shoulder. She turned round. It was her masters killer.
"I'm terribly sorry. I know you may never forgive me of what I have done but he was our enemy and you did say you wanted to get rid of these bandits child. You have done so. Come. I'll help you bury him."
She nodded weakly and carried Heintz body. She didn't want this to happen. She held him closer to her. Everyone just watched her and the monk walk past them in awe. Why was she carrying the enemies body? The army was curious of her. The monk asked the thief to dig a grave for the Shaman. The monk recited some words for the dead. The only one attending this funeral was him and Victoria. She wept and bowed at the grave, giving respect for Heintz. She stood and walked back to the inn. The inn keeper was waiting for her.
"Well done miss! You drove those bandits away and now I can be at peace. I thank you greatly."
He bowed to her but she ignored him. She was traumatized by her masters death. She just headed back to her room and wept some more. Not shortly after that monk had come back to the inn. She wanted to be alone but didn't want to lock the door. It would be rude of her to do so. She just sat at her bed, wiped the tears away and went back to reading her book. It was the only thing that kept her occupied. Then a knock came from the door and in came that monk.
"Hello." He said.
Victoria just smiled awkwardly towards him. He knew she was in so much grief and could understand her pain. He went over and sat next to her.
"I'm sorry. But I had to choice. I know you can't forgive me…but I felt I needed to apologize to you."
Victoria gazed at him. She already forgave him because it wasn't his fault. He was such a nice guy.
"No no you don't need to apologize to me. I already forgave you since it wasn't your fault…"
She then gazed down to the floor. She didn't know what to feel for the monk.
"…thank you child. And I haven't properly introduced myself. My name is Lucius and you already know that I am an Acolyte."
"My name is Victoria. I am a Shaman in-training. Though even I am a shaman, as a child I have been able to use some light and anima magic. My teacher found it strange so she put me into this survival course."
Lucius stared at her. Her teacher must have been a terrible person to have done this to a student.
"Oh…and also" he began. "Lady Lyndis is wondering if you would like to join her band of mercenaries. She would be glad if you could since I, too, am joining. What do you say?"
He smiled at her hoping she would say yes. Victoria had to give this a thought. "Could they want to kill me? Or is this pity since I lost my master? Whatever the reason I can't really trust them…"
There was a long pause.
"Y…yes. I'll join."
Lucius smiled even brighter.
"Wonderful! Lady Lyn will be most overjoyed. The more the merrier they always say!"
He grabbed her hand and pulled her downstairs. He paid the inn keeper and dragged Victoria outside. There, everyone was waiting for her.
"So glad you could join us Victoria." Said Lyn who was smiling sweetly.
"How do you know my name?" asked Victoria.
"I over heard that Shaman say your name. I apologize for eavesdropping."
"No no it's no trouble at all Milady Lyn."
"Good good. Well…welcome to the army."
Everyone else gave a warm smile at her. She felt something hot inside her. Was this happiness? Joy? She couldn't tell. Whatever it was it felt good. She smiled back at them and they all cheered. She never felt this before but she was happy. The handsome green cavalier was smiling so sweetly. Victoria could swear she was in love with him but one-sided love was not a good thing. Her teacher told her this. She just looked back at him and smiled. He then walked over to her.
"Are you alright my lady?"
"Yes…I'm fine. Though I was crying I'm fine. Really. You needn't worry so."
"Very well. Ah beauteous flower how wonderful it is that you have joined the army. I, Sain, shall protect you with all my heart!"
"This guy does poetry?" thought Victoria.
"Uh…that's very kind of you but I can take care of myself. But thanks."
"Ah you don't need to worry yourself so! Let this handsome knight protect you with his heart. Now, come closer."
"Eeek! He's going to rape me!" she thought.
"Uh…I fine really. I have to go bye!"
She dashed away to join Lyn and the others
"Ah? Oh how cruel my beloved! How cruel!"
