Chapter 1
It as a normal day for Lissa and company . She had gone along with her big brother Chrom and Bodyguard/Babysitter Frederick to tend to the most recent of several Bandits attacks at the Border. And as usual with long trips someone had to ask this question.
"Chrom are we there yet?", Ask Lissa with a face that said spoiled princess. "For the last time we get there when we get there now stop asking." answered Chrom for the 19th time.
"Frederick are we there yet? Asked Lissa. "Just cause you changed who you asked milady does not mean were their yet. "answer Frederick. "Well I'm tired. "Sighed Lissa who was wishing she had a horse.
They had walked all day and as usual Lissa was tired of walking and acting spoiled. Chrom was use to this but he was trying to focus on all the bandit raids, all of them had been attacked by Plegian bandits he wondered if this one would be the same.
"Frederick what was this town called again?" Chrom had forgotten due to dealing with Lissa.
"Southtown milord."
"Southtown?"
"Yes the town closest to the southern border, hence the name."
"I got it."
Meanwhile Lissa had started to play with her hair and look around when she notice something in the field near her that seem to big to be a rock and to purple anyways. "Hey Chrom?" Lissa asked while still looking at the weird thing in the field.
"What now Lissa?" asked Chrom hoping it was not the same question as last time. "What's that thing." pointed Lissa "It looks like a person, come on "answered Chrom and he and his party ran off to see if it was a person and if they were okay.
When they got there they found out it was in fact indeed a person, knock out on the ground. Lissa walk forward but Frederick stop her."Careful milady this could be a trap." Frederick said with a suspicious look on his face all the while getting an axe ready ."Peace Frederick, lets check first and put the axe down." said Chrom shaking the stranger and nothing happen.
Seeing as nothing happen Lissa Stated "Chrom we have to do something..." Just as she said that the stranger started to wake
"What do you propose we do?"
"I... I dunno...".
As they said that they notice that the person was awake and looking at them.
"I see you're awake now." Chrom said while looking at the man.
"Hey there!" Lissa smiled at him.
"There are better places to take a nap than on the ground, you know. Give me your hand." Chrom said as he extended his hand. As the stranger got up he notice the weird mark on the back of his hand that look six eyes on wings.
"You all right?" Asked the leader of the group.
"Yes... Thank you, Chrom." replied the stranger.
"Ah, then you know who I am, have we meet before ?" asked the blue haired man.
"No, actually. Your name, it just came to me" said the other one without thinking what the results of saying that would be.
" So what's your name?" asked Chrom not sounding shocked at all that a stranger knew him.
"My name is... It's... Hmm?" answered the Stranger lost in thought.
"...You don't remember your own name?" yelled a shocked Chrom never hearing of such a thing.
"I'm not sure if... I'm sorry, but where am I, exactly?" said the curious man as he look around.
"Hey, I've heard of this! It's called amnesia!" Lissa gasped.
"It's called a load of Pegasus dung." said Frederick tired of being quiet all this time. "We're to believe you remember milord's name, but not your own? asked Frederick as he was about to get the axe out, again.
Frederick had heard tons of stupid lies but this one had to be the biggest one yet, bigger then that one time when some idiot came up to the castle saying he was Chrom and Lissa long-lost brother.
"Hey it's the truth!" yelled the man in the hood.
"...What if it IS true, Frederick? We can't just leave him here like this . What sort of things would people say about the Shepherds then and put the axe back down ?" Chrom said shutting Frederick up and putting back the axe.
Size Chrom was not about to leave this man all alone in the middle of nowhere it was not his style. And there was no telling how this man came to be found unconscious in the middle of this field.
"Just the same, milord. I must emphasize caution. This could be a wolf in sheep's clothing." said Frederick the wary. Frederick still did not trust him, he was a bodyguard after all and it was his job to protect Chrom and Lissa from danger.
"Fine we'll take him back to town and sort this out there." Chrom ordered realizing Frederick would probably kill this man if left to him.
"Wait just one moment. Do I have a say in this?" asked the Stranger. The idea of Frederick questioning him scared the hell out of him and for good reason as Frederick still had his hands on the axe.
"Don't worry I promise we'll hear all you have to say in town. Now come on although to be safe and Frederick FOR THE LAST TIME PUT THE AX UP." ordered and promised Chrom
And so they started walking and once again Lissa had started with questions but this time they were to the stranger when she realize something."Hey can you take off that hood?" Lissa asked after realizing she did not know what he look like .
"Sure but why." Said the stranger
"Cause for starters we don't know what you look like and this way if you get lost we know what to look for." Lissa explained and she did have a good point none of them knew what he look like
" I approve of this, plus I can watch you better this way this way for when you lead us into a trap." approved Frederick going into work mode and not even giving a benefit of a doubt to the stranger.
"FINE, okay I see you point." answered the he took off the hood the other 3 took note of his face he was a young man probably no older than Chrom with really silver hair and had really dark green eyes and while he had a cloak on he did have a few muscles.
"Hm well Frederick got his face now or do you believe it will do tricks now?" Asked Chrom.
"Yes Milord I believe I will be able to recognize his face from now on, what about you milady...Milady?" asked Frederick had to say that twice cause Lissa had stared at his face harder than Frederick.
"Huh , oh yeah heh-heh." said Lissa with a nervous laugh ."Something wrong?" asked Chrom. "Oh nothing he looks really familiar that's all heh-heh, lets keep walking." said Lissa again with the nervous laugh.
"Okay let's go." said a clueless Chrom.
They had started walking again for 30 minutes when the stranger spoke again.
"So what now am I to be your prisoner?" asked the stranger still keeping a safe distance from the ax manic just in case he push the wrong buttons later.
Now it was Chrom turn to laugh.
"Hah! You'll be free to go once we establish that you're no threat to Ylisse." chuckled Chrom at sight of Frederick scaring this guy
"Ylisse? Is that where we are?" asked the man the name sounded somewhat familiar to him.
"You've never heard of the Halidom? He plays quite the fool! The furrowed brow is especially convincing…" said Frederick cause in his head Frederick thought if this man was lying he was doing a good job at hiding who he really was. He just wondered who that was if it was the case.
"Frederick, please. This land is known as the Halidom of Ylisse. Our ruler,Emmeryn, is called the exalt. I suppose proper introductions are in order... My name is Chrom—but then, you already knew that. The delicate one here who keeps staring at you here is my little sister, Lissa." Introduced Chrom
"I am not delicate! …Hmph! Ignore my brother, please. He can be a bit thick at times. But you're lucky the Shepherds found, bandits would've been a rude Nightmare!" said an angry Lissa. She was not delicate , well she thought so anyway.
"Shepherds? You tend sheep in armor?" replied the shocked man. In his head he wondered what kind of sheep need tending to in full armor?
"Heh, it's a dangerous job. Just ask Frederick the Wary here." said Chrom seeing the mans face lost in thought
"A title I shall wear with pride. Gods forbid one of us be on alert." stated Frederick not caring how lame his nickname made him sound.
"I understand, sir. I would do no less- whats thats!"said the stranger while pointing to the large amount of smoke past the trees.
"Damn it! The town is ablaze! Those blasted brigands, no doubt... Frederick, Lissa! Quickly!"ordered Chrom.
"What about him?"Asked Frederick the Wary.
"Unless he's on fire as well, it can wait!" Stated Chrom with a serious face.
"Good point, milord."said Frederick.
"Let's go already!"said Lissa looking at the town, with that the three ran to the fire leaving the stranger alone.
"But what about— Hmm..."said the stranger as he realized he could run away now but at the same time realized they may help and after seeing he did have a sword on him he decided to help them."Hey wait for me!" he said while running after them.
