No One's POV
On the ground in the middle of a field laid a boy, average height, average build, short, choppy blue hair. He was wearing a set of heavy coats and such.
Robin's POV
"Uhh…?"
What was that dream…it was so strange…
"Well we gotta do something?"
"And exactly what should we do?"
"I don't know Chrom…Oh he's waking up."
I blinked and came face to face with two people, a man, shaggy but kempt dark blue hair, and a girl, short, long blondish hair tied into pigtails.
"The ground isn't the best place to take a nap." The man said.
He looks just like that guy…
"Here give me your hand."
I reached up and he helped me off the ground.
"Do you feel all right?"
"Uh…yeah thanks Chrom." I mumbled.
"You…know who I am?"
"Oh what…no your name…just kinda popped into my head."
"How odd…" Chrom mumbled "So what's your name, what bring you to be napping in the middle of nowhere."
"My name is…Uhh…"
What is my name?
"You don't know you own name?" Chrom said.
"Sorry…where are we?"
"Oh I've heard of this." The girl said "It's called Amnesia."
"Sounds like a loud of hooey to me."
I noticed another man was with them, tall, wearing a full suit of blue armor. He struck me as intimidating and serious.
"He can't remember his own name but he can remember lord Chrom's?"
"I mean it!" I yelled "I really don't know…"
"Well Frederick, if it is the truth we can't very well leave him here all confused." Chrom said "We wouldn't be very good shepherds than would we?"
"I emphasize caution." The armored man said "It's not wise to let a wolf into a flock…"
"Okay then, let's take him back to town and we can sort things out there." Chrom said.
"Hey wait!" I yelled "Don't I have a choice."
"We can talk back at town, come on."
Since i had no place else to go i just followed them towards town.
"What are you gonna do with me?" I asked "Am I just a glorified prisoner?"
"You'll be free to do whatever you want once we establish who you are." Chrom said "We have to make sure you're not an enemy of Ylisse."
"Uh…Ylisse…is that where we are?"
"You've ever heard of the haildom, I'm telling you he is some sort of skilled actor." The other man sighed "The confused look is expertly done."
"Enough Frederick." Chrom groaned "This place is called the Haildom of Ylisse, it's ruler, Emmeryn, is known as the exalt. Let's do a proper introduction, I'm Chrom, but you knew that. The delicate girl is my sister Lissa."
"Hey! I'm not delicate!" the girl yelled "Ignore my brother, he's an idiot. You're lucky the Shepherds found you, if it had been bandits or something worse…yikes."
"You're all Shepherds?" i said confused "Then why the armor?"
"It's a dangerous job, just ask Frederick." Chrom said.
"I hope we can trust the stranger, I'm only using proper caution."
"Yeah, yeah I get it." I mumbled "My name's Robin."
Whoa…where did that come from?
"Weird…I just remember that, well one mystery down I suppose." I smiled.
"Robin…what an odd name…" Chrom said.
"I think it's cute." Lissa smiled "It suits you."
"Well we should get going-."
"Chrom!" Lissa yelled "Look!"
When I looked over there was a large amount of smoke coming from the nearby town, more than usual.
"Damn it! The town's on fire!" Chrom yelled "brigands most likely, Frederick, Lissa! Let's go!"
"Well what about him?" the knight asked.
"If he's not self-immolating I really don't care right now!"
"I see…"
"Can we go already?!" Lissa yelled.
The other three ran off.
"Hey…wait!" I yelled "Don't just leave me here alone!"
Opting not to stand there like a fool I ran after them.
"Ha...ha…ha…jeez you're all really fast." I panted catching up "Slow down next time."
"Why did you follow us?" Chrom asked.
"I…don't know." I pondered "But I had this sword and stuff so…I think I know how to fight, i mean if you'll let me."
"There is strength in numbers, just stay close."
When Chrom and Frederick began to move my head hurt…and it when the pain faded it was like I could see everything.
I think…I get it now.
"You okay?" Lissa asked "I'm a healer so if you need anything just say so."
"You have a sword and a tome…do you know magic?"
"I guess." I shrugged "Maybe I should check."
"Yeah, be careful, go check over there."
I caught the eye of one of the bandits, I just followed my mind for what to do.
I lifted me hand, a strange circle papered and then lightning shot out and zapped him.
"Wow!" Lissa cheered "That was really good!"
"Look out!"
I pushed passed her and shocked a man with an axe.
"That was close, thanks." She gulped "I'm not great at fighting myself…"
Chrom appeared and cut the man down.
"Stay sharp, we don't need anyone getting maimed."
"Right."
I saw Frederick ride by on a horse.
Where did he get that?
There was a mage not far off and he galloped passed and took out the man with one swing of his lance.
"You still with us Robin?" Chrom asked
"Yeah…" I said "It's funny, my blood is pumping, it's like I was built for this. I see formations and weapons…perhaps I studied somewhere?"
"There's only one left." Chrom said hiding in cover "Let's get moving."
"Right."
Chrom and Frederick moved up and into position to start fighting the boss of the Bandits. Chrom got in a few good cuts and then I saw it, my opening.
"Thunder!"
I shot a ball of magic out, zapping the leader, sending him to the floor, smoking.
"UGH!" the guy groaned.
"Nice shot!" Chrom cheered.
"Well that's that." I smiled.
"Good thing we were so close by." Lissa laughed "But wow you sure were strong Robin. You can do all kinds of cool stuff."
"You're certainly not helpless that's for sure." Chrom smiled.
"Still…it's odd you only remember select things." Frederick glared.
"But why did only a little bit return to me." I sighed "I wish I knew more."
"You helped save people." Chrom said "That's good enough for me. We could use someone like you. So, do you want to come with us?"
"Sure." I shrugged "Sounds good to me."
We helped clean up a bit of the bandits mess.
"Milord, did you notice how they spoke?" Frederick said "They had a Plegian accent."
"What's Plegian?" i asked.
"Plegia is this nations westerly neighbor." Chrom said "They send raiding parties every so often to instigate a war."
"And it's always the innocent people who end up hurt." Lissa pouted.
"And that's why they have the Shepherds to protect them." Frederick said.
A townsperson came up and asked us to spend the night, but Frederick said we were going back to someplace called Ylisstol.
Lissa started whining asking to stay but Frederick said we'd just camp out in the woods.
"He seems very…stern." I whispered to the girl.
"He's something." She grumbled.
"You shouldn't talk about people who are right by you." Frederick sighed.
"Eep!" Lissa and I both shivered.
"We should be going." The knight said.
"Then let's go." Chrom said walking off.
"Don't mind those two." Lissa smiled "They're always so serious, Frederick more than Chrom."
"They do strike me that way." I nodded back.
"You strike me as more laid back." Lissa giggled "I think we'll be great friends."
"Sure…I hope we can." I smiled back.
"My feet hurt!" Lissa suddenly whined.
"We've been walking five minutes." I groaned.
"Carry me~" she groaned.
"WHAT?!"
