Hello everybody! It's The Hooded Writer! I'm back with a new tale to tell! No this isn't the one I had in mind that required me to complete Revelations (Sorry that's taking me a while. Finally finished skill grinding for the parents and recruiting their kids…Now I'm skill grinding FOR the kids.) But at any rate this story takes place after Code Name FE and starts at the final battle of Fire Emblem awakening and goes beyond the ending. This needless to say means BIG SPOILERS FROM FIRE EMBLEM AWAKINING! DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU DO NOT WANT IT SPOILED FOR YOU! Also if you're wondering why this story is categorized as Friendship and Romance instead of Friendship and Adventure it's because it involves Robin's family. Mostly his ties with a certain blue haired princess. (Hint, hint. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge.) Okay I can tell what you're thinking. "Yes, yes I get it! Can I please read the actual story now!?" Why yes you can! Actually one more thing first and I know this is kind of out of the blue but HAPPY BRITHDAY LUCINA! Okay, NOW I'm done. Enjoy!
"Henry!"
The captain turned to see Dorothy run up to him panting heavily.
"What's wrong Dorothy?"
"I just got a message from queen Ozma!" the girl responded holding up a piece of paper.
"What it about?" Queequeg asked.
"All it says is "Come to Oz immediately. Our friend needs our help."
"Our friend?" John asked.
"This certainty sounds urgent." Fox said.
"If the queen is worried something awful must be happening!" Lion said.
"We need to get there right away!" Tin Man said.
"Please tell me we don't have to go through that twister again." Tom begged.
"No choice I'm afraid." Henry said. "Helmsmen! Make haste for Oz!"
"Aye, aye!"
A black void suddenly consumed Robin.
"Aaarrrrgh!"
"Robin!" Chrom yelled.
After it faded Robin disappeared from Grima's back.
Marth looked up at the sky from the castle balcony.
"Did I just hear…?"
Roy's eyes widened. Somehow he knew he didn't just imagine that voice.
"Robin?"
Ike looked at the night sky from his camp.
"I feel like he needs help…"
Henry and the others rushed into the palace.
The solider with green whiskers was the first to greet them. "Thank goodness you're here!"
"We came here as quickly as we could!" Henry said. "Where's queen Ozma!?"
"She and the wizard are at the palace balcony! Follow me!"
They followed the solider to the balcony where the queen and wizard waited for them. The wizard held an emerald orb in his hands.
"Thank you all for coming." The wizard said.
"What's the problem? Scarecrow asked.
"It seems that Robin is in trouble as we speak." Ozma said.
"Robin? What happened?" Henry asked.
"Here, look at this." The wizard showing them the emerald orb. "It is a device that allowed me to take a glimpse of what is happening in his world."
"Fascinating." Randolph said.
The team gathered around the orb as an image appeared inside it.
A black void suddenly consumed Robin.
"Aaarrrrgh!"
"Robin!" Chrom yelled.
After it faded Robin disappeared from Grima's back.
"What was that!?" Tom asked.
"Robin and his friends are currently confronting the fell dragon Grima Lucina spoke of." Ozma said.
"This is a disaster." A British voice said.
The team turned around in shock.
"Queen Victoria!? General Grant!?" What are you doing here!?" Henry asked.
"Queen Ozma told us the situation." Grant said. "Looks like Robin needs our help now more than ever…."
"We need to do something!" John said. "Can you send us to his world!?"
"I'm afraid not." The wizard said. "The machine can't send you all there. Even if it could you would need the help of the divine dragon Naga to get on Grima's back."
"Then what do we do?" Henry asked.
"That is why we called you." Ozma said. "Do you have any ideas on how we can help?"
Robin opened his eyes and found himself in what seemed like endless darkness. Grima was standing right in front of him.
"Where am I?"
"Where your god wills you to be." Grima replied. "Now if you will excuse me…I have a few fleas on my back to take care of."
"No…I won't let you!" Robin yelled.
"You still DARE resist ME?!" Grima growled. "Then perhaps I should end you first."
Robin braced himself as Grima stretched out his arm as dark energy formed from his hand.
The next thing Robin knew he was on the ground.
"So dark…A sea of black…"
Robin laid on the ground is silence for a minute.
"I have…no final strategy…No cards left to play…He has…won…"
More silence.
"Ah…I c-can't see…I can't hear…I feel…nothing…"
"…..."
"…Nothing…"
"…"
Then he heard something.
-ve to -ack!"
"…Huh?"
Yo- ha- fi- Back! -ghting!"
"I…hear something… A voice…"
"Fight ba-! –ave to keep -ing!"
The voice became clearer.
"Fight back, Robin! You swore to do so, remember? Now keep your damn word!"
"C-Chrom?"
Robin opened his eyes
"Chrom! Chrom, I can hear you!"
"What?! No! You are mine now!" Grima yelled. "The dragon's grip cannot be broken!"
More familiar voices reached Robin.
"Come back to us, Robin!"
"Lissa…"
"I know it would take more than this to stop you, sir!"
"Frederick…"
"You gonna let that ugly snake get the last hiss? Come on!"
"Sully…"
"History is watching, Robin! The bards would sing of your triuph!"
"Virion…"
"On your feet, solider! Don't make ol' Teach give ya a lecture!"
"Vaike…"
"Wake up, Robin! Only I get to oversleep!"
"Stahl…"
"Arise from your hypnopompic state! You are sorely needed here!"
"Miriel…"
"Hello? Can you hear me? …Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAH!"
"Kellam…"
"Robin, remember all the days we spent together!"
"Sumia…"
"Answer us, Robin!"
"Lon'qu…"
"Please, Robin! You're too important to me!"
"Ricken…"
"Get up right this instant, or suffer a swift smack of my parasol!"
"Maribelle…"
"Do not rob the Taguel of one of our last true champions!"
"Panne…"
"Up and at 'em Robin! One dragon oughta be a piece of cake!"
"Gaius…"
"We're all right here by your side!"
"Cordelia…"
"Gregor will snap you out of it! Gregor does with the YELLING!"
"Gregor…"
"I thought I was your favorite dragon! Forget about Grima!"
"Nowi…"
"The gods gave you to us. I do not believe they wish you taken away!"
"Libra…"
"Get up, Robin! No one goes down without my say so…"
"Tharja…"
"Please, Robin! I still haven't shown you my new dance!"
"Olivia…"
"Minerva wants you back, and so do I!"
"Cherche…"
"I know the darkness is warm and delicious…But too much of a good thing is just bad!"
"Henry…"
"Aye, awaken! You cannot leave now, with my debt to you unpaid!"
"Say'ri…"
"Pull it together, lad! Death is overrated, believe me!"
"Basilio…"
"You don't bow to dragons. You break 'em!"
"Flavia…"
"I need ya to come on back, y'hear?!"
"Donnel…"
"Robin, you can't close up shop on us now! We still need you!"
"Anna…"
"Heed not the dark's eerie call, friend! Summon forth the strength inside you!"
"Owain…"
"I can think of nothing worse than dying alone. ...No seriously. I can't."
"Inigo…"
"Come on, bud! No givin' up now!"
"Brady…"
"This is a test, and by the gods, you're gonna pass it!"
"Kjelle…"
"Come on! You can do this! You need to fight with us!"
"Cynthia…"
"If you don't come back, I'm never going to forgive you!"
"Severa…"
"We lost to the fell dragon once. Do not grant fate a second victory!"
"Gerome…"
"You're going to be okay, right? …I need you to keep me safe."
"Yarne…"
"It is inconceivable that our rollicking adventures might end at this juncture."
"Laurent…"
"Blood and thunder! Return to us now!"
"Norie…"
"You'll return. I know you will."
"Nah…"
"You are not Grima, nor is he you. Remember that, Robin!"
"Tiki…"
"One nip from a dragon and you're down? Get up, you craven schoolboy!"
"Gangrel…"
"Rise, Robin! Show this god that man is made of sterner stuff!"
"Walhart…"
"Robin…Robin…Robin!"
"Emmeryn…"
"…Robin!"
"Yen'fay…"
"Oh, Robin, no taking the easy way out—I haven't finished with you yet!"
"Aversa…"
"True champions find victory in the darkest hour! Show us, Robin!"
"Priam…"
Robin slowly got up.
"I can hear them…I can hear my friends!"
"Stop this at once!" Grima yelled.
The next two voices were practically begging to Robin.
"Father! You mean everything to me! I can't lose you again!"
"Morgan…"
"You have earned my trust and my love, sir. Now return to us!"
"Lucina…"
"We promised to make a new future didn't we? You promised you will always be by my side no matter what path I chose to follow. Well I have chosen to stop Grima and make a new life…with you. You are my greatest motivation to save this world….my one and only love."
Tears of joy filled Robin's eyes at his fiancée's last five words.
"SILENCE those wretched voices!" Grima shouted. "You are all Powerless! Frail! Insignificant!"
Grima was now filled with rage and fear.
"You are NOOOTHING!"
Then another voice could be heard from above Robin.
"Are they really? I for one think those voices and their owners are worth much more then you ever were or ever will be foul beast."
Robin gasped and looked up. He knew that voice.
Above them a small golden orb appeared above him and descended in between him and Grima.
"What's the matter Robin? It's not like you to give up."
Robin stared at the orb.
"You're…."
The orb emitted an intense light and blinded both Robin and Grima.
After the light died down Robin slowly opened his eyes before they widened in shock.
A tall man with bushy black hair and a beard in the same uniform he was in when Robin last saw him stood before him facing Grima.
Grima glared at the man after his vision was restored.
"Who are you!? How did you get here!? This defies all logic!"
"Unfortunately for you we have a secret weapon far greater than you or your twisted logic. Right Robin?" the man smiled turning to the tactician.
Robin stared at the man in awe.
"Mr.….President!?"
And that was chapter 1 of Id (S.T.E.A.M)! As usual if you have any opinions on this bad or good I request that you share them in a review so I can learn what to do next time! And like Code Name F.E. this will be updated every Wednesday ant Saturday. What does the president plan to do? Will Henry find a way to help Robin? Did you miss me and my chapters that ended with two serious question and something stupid and unrelated? Find out all this (Don't lie. You totally did.) and more next time!
