I have NO idea if I protrayed Wil correctly but I know hes kind of a ditz and slightly ignorant. And I have NO idea if he would really fall for this girl, but oh well! Hope you enjoy!

I dont own anyone, save the OC.


Wil stood out on the archery range, bow in hand, stringing and firing at the motionless targets several dozen feet ahead. He had been practicing archery since he was young child and he had grown to think that he was decent at it, good even. After all, he was a part of Lyndis' Legion so he must be good.

After the group had set out to end the Black Fang, Wil had followed Lyn and the others, vowing to be one of her "bodyguards" as Sain had put it, putting little too much emphasis on "body." In his mind, he had nothing better to do and he might as well save the world while he was at it.

Anyways, that's how he came to be standing here, launching his arrows into the manikins and objects across the field. As skillful as he was, he knew practicing would do everyone in the group good.

"Wil!" called Eliwood across the valley of grass, slowly jogging out to meet him. "I have a favor to ask you, if you will hear me out."

"Naturally, 'course I have time." He lowered his arm and the arrows that he had just strung, relaxing himself in a casual stance. Though he now stood in front of a lord ranking high above him, Eliwood as well as the others had instructed that they be treated just the same and Wil was able to comply with a simple request.

"Well, our rations have grown somewhat low and a thought came that perhaps you could snare or shoot something down in the woods near us. We aren't camped too far from it, you can see the tree line from here," he said, pointing passed the archer into the horizon. The sun was still high in the sky and it shown in their eyes as they looked down at the forest, a large woodland overflowing with thick trunks and greenery. "If this isn't too much trouble…"

"No, not at all! I'd like to do something for the group, however small," Wil replied with a bright grin.

"Good! Would you like for me to ask someone to help you?" inquired the lord, glad that he had accepted the task.

"Nah, I'll be fine. Someone who isn't familiar with bow hunting would scare the animals and make it harder. It wont take long. I'll be back soon."

"Wonderful. Thank you, Wil. I look forward to seeing you when you return."

With that, both men went their separate ways. The archery collected a handful of sharp hunting arrows, placing them into a holster at his side. With his bow in hand, he jogged down the hill, passed the warriors that made up their small group of soldiers. They watched him as he ran by, curious where he was headed but let him go his way, returning to what they had previously been doing.

By the time he reached the border of the forest, he was out of breath, resting his hands on his knees as he bend over panting heavily. Maybe I should have borrowed a horse. Maybe I should have learned how to ride…he thought as he regained himself, standing up to his full height, stepping into shadows created by the large arms of the tree branches.
