Arthur's note: Hi i'll try to upload as much as possible I don't have a clear pairing just yet so if yall have any suggestions please message me.
I remember correctly the day I died, it stared like any other day. My older brother Xander had come that morning to help me practice along with the rest of my siblings Camilla, Leo, and Elise. They had come to escort me to father's palace for he had granted me a special mission. I should have known better but I was naïve I was trusting and gullible. Who would have known that in the last 42 hour I would have meet my "real" family from Hoshido when all I knew was Nohr. Ryoma, Takumi, Hinoka, and Sakura made me feel like I belong like I never left. Mikoto, my mother, whose kindness knew no bounds and took in the Nohr lost Princesses Azura and raised her as her own.
How was I supposed to move on when the sword given to me by supposed to be father killed my birth mother. The only mother I had ever meet with such kindness. Now I stand in this battle field stained with the blood of both Hoshido and Nohr. How can they make me choose when my heart was torn .The blue haired songstress had shown me a different path but would this path be worth it, how was I supposed to keep on living when I was so hurt and confused.
"This way!" Ryoma extended his hand towards me expecting me to take it.
"B-Big sister?" Sakura looked at me staff in hand as Hinoka and Takumi came in to view.
"She's my sister!" Elise came running toward the center stopping to look at me.
"We're your family." Xander extended his hand from his horse as Leo and Camilla looked from afar.
I was afraid and scared this was my first time out of my castle, and now I was trusted into this war that I wanted no part of. I would not hurt my family. "I... I won't betray anyone. I won't fight against the people of Nohr after you cared for me all these years. You and Camilla, Leo and Elise... We might not be related by blood, but you are family to me. You've been with me for as long as I can remember."
"Well said, little princess. What ties us together is thicker than blood." Xander smiled towards me.
"What are you saying, Corrin? You would discard your true family and side with those who stand against us?" Xander looked hurt and disappointed.
"...No. I refuse to fight against my Hoshidan siblings, either. Ryoma...we might not have spent much time together, but you are my family too. You, Hinoka, Takumi, Sakura... I don't want to fight with you on this or any other battlefield." I looked at Ryoma hoping they would hear my plea.
"We feel the same, Corrin." Ryoma smiled at me.
"...But I can't side with either of you against the other. I cannot betray any of my family." I looked down at my hands
"Corin, what are you..." Xander spoke
"...going to do, then?" Ryoma finished.
"I'm so sorry, both of you. Please, set your swords aside! I'm sure a peaceful solution exists. If we could just—" Xander cut me off before I could finish.
"I've heard enough! Corrin, I can see what you're trying to accomplish here. As your older brother, however, it is my duty to teach you the truth..." Xander gave me a stern look giving chills down my spine.
"Not while I still stand... Corrin is finally back with her family—I will not let you take her again!" Ryoma took his sword from it sheath
"No, wait! Xander! Ryoma!"
"Don't think for a moment that I will let you take Corrin without a fight. It seems only right to cross swords with my opposing equal. As the heirs of our respective families, why don't we settle this here and now?" Xander pointed his sword at Ryoma
"Prepare yourself, then. I will defeat you in defense of my kingdom and my sister!" Ryoma prepared for battle as so did my other siblings.
"Please, both of you, stop! We can still talk this out inste—!" I took a step back and looked at my siblings ready to fight for me ready to put their lifes on the line for me.
"HAAAA!" Both Xander and Ryoma yelled as they came charging at each other.
"I SAID STOP!" I yelled holding my ground between both of them tears rolling down my face "STOP!" I held my hand towards the both as they stop before me.
"Step aside Corrin" Xandre grumble
"You cannot stop this" Ryoma look at me and Xander. I took Yato from my side, Ryoma and Xander looked at me confused by my action.
"This sword chose me as its owner because I might be able to stop this madness" anger swelled with in me. I would not regret this choice if it meant that this would stop the fighting. "and today I will" I took Yato with both hands and pointed the tip towards my abdomen. I heard both Xander and Ryoman yell for their armies to stop. I could hear the pleas from my family to stop but I wouldn't not now and not ever this wasn't the life I wanted. I took one last look at Azura "Show them the way" I yelled at her as I plunged Yato deep within me. At first all I felt was hot steel then came the pain. I heard screams from Elise and Sakura, there were people sounding me on the ground. When did I fall?
"Corrin!" The distorted voices called out to me.
"We have to save her!" "We can't take Yato out!" I smiled as their voices mixed making me unable to make them apart.
"Please…." I looked up and saw Xander and Ryoma their faces covered in despair "Don't fight…. Find a peaceful solution." My vison was beginning to fade and I chuckled "I guess this is the end for me…" as I looked at my sibling's tears rolling down their cheeks I smiled one last time. Then I saw her, she was standing looking down at me her face full of shock. "Bye… bye…." I let the word out as everything around me turn white.
Her Long gray hair was sprawled on the ground mixed with her blood. She was beautiful even after death just like her dead mother Mikoto. A man wearing a grayish coat appeared looking at the Hoshidan and Nohr families as they tried their best to bring her back. Her smile had not yet faded, and there were still warmth left in her body.
"W-we have to do something!" Hinoka looked distress as she looked at her family.
"O-open your eyes sister" Elise shook Corrin's hand tears rolling down her face.
"T-this isn't funny" Sakura smiled as she held her sister hand to her face.
Camilla tilted her head to the side her madness sinking in. "Dear please wake up"
Takumi had fallen on his knees tears rolling down his cheeks his face crush.
Leo stood behind his bother Xander unable to move.
Xander and Ryoma began to put pressure on her wound hopping that would help. Their hands covered in her blood, a crimson red that would never fade from their minds. As the cloaked man step forward Azura looked at him with a blank stare. He made his way toward Corrin's body and looked upon the people surrounding her body. He gave a quick glance at Laslow, Selena, and Odin who quickly moved to his side.
"Step Aside" the cloaked man loomed over them. His mouth not moving but sound coming from his direction. The siblings looked lost but were able to draw their sword.
"Who are you!?" Ryoma spoke first. The man irritated by their lack of movement push them aside with his magic sending them flying.
"Lawslo, Selena, Odin. What are you waiting for strike him down!" Xavier looked at the retainers as they drew their weapons not at the man but at them a cold look in their eyes. "What do you all think you are doing! This is treason!" They did not speak as Xavier cursed their name. The man picked Corrin from the ground and began to walk away.
"Where are you taking her!" Yelled Hinoka
"Stop!" Camilla step forward axe in hand ready to strike him down. In that moment Takumi send an arrow straight at his head which did not touched him for it had faded a few inches before its destination.
"It's is no use" said the voice from the man. "Your efforts are futile." He turned to look at them "You have destroyed the one thing that could led you to the truth and blame each other." Their faces gave a painful scowl. "She was hope. She was light. And now she is gone because of your trivial matter such as pride."
"Sister!" Elise and Sakura ran toward the man only to be stopped by Selina and Lawslo. They were take back and stopped in their tracks as they stared at them with spite.
"If you wish to see her again follow the songstress." He looked at Azura feet planted to the ground unable to move. "Then you will see the truth" a blue hole appeared being the man as he walked in. Lawslo, Selena and Odin walking after him.
"NO!" screamed the siblings unable to stop him from taking her body. In a blink of an eye a young butler ran across the fields and enter either them a second before they disappeared into the blue.
Ryoma and his sibling stood there unable to move. Xander then looked at the songstress.
"Where. Is. She" his voice a growl. Azura shocked by the events took a step back. Xander took his sword and pointed it at her.
"Stop!" Ryoma stepped between them. "We had enough deaths in our family" he looked at Elise and Sakura holding each other as they cried for their fallen sister. "Azura can you please explain what that man said?" She nodded
"Unfortunately, I can't not here." Xanders eyes like sword dug into her. "Meet me at the bottomless canyon with your forces when the skies above Hoshido and Nohr begging to change then I can tell you."
