This is my second fanfic, still, If I use grammar wrong, please inform me. Also, I love Edward/Rolf pairing for a while, but it has been the most weird pairing ever! But I've decided to write it . Please enjoy the story.
After Crimea has regain it peace from the mad king's war, right now Crimea is peaceful.
Crimea let Begnion take control over Daein because of the resource problem, every resource has been put into reconstruction effort.
Queen Elincia have heard about disturbing news in Daein, Bastion told Elincia that there has been a rumor about Begnion's soldiers in Daein. Such like putting every young youth and every able man into labor camp, let bandit ran wild, stealing villager's food. And much more.
Elincia had been disturbed by this so she decided to call Ike to investigate things in Daein as a contract. Ike walked into the throne room where Elincia and her close vassal
"Sir Ike, I want you to go investigate what is happening in Daein right now, can you go?" Elincia asked
"Well, I don't mind it as you hire me, I won't refuse but why me. Surely Apostle could look into this matter." Ike asked
"We can't do that." Geoffrey replied.
"Why not?" Ike continued to ask.
"There has been a split in power between apostle and the senate, If the apostle move without any evidence, it will make people lost trust in apostle" Lucia replied.
"There has been a conflict between apostle and senate? Then I suppose I have to find some evidence in Daein for you right?" Ike asked Elincia.
"That's right but do you heard about the Dawn Brigade in Daein? They is very famous right now, they helped people in Daein. If you meet up with them, I like you to help them liberate Daein." Bastion said.
"Why help them liberate? They could make another war with us." Ike said.
"We believe that if Daein doesn't have anyone succeed throne, then Daein would be free country that everyone could live in. Now that Crimea has completely restored, we can lend some help to them as well but that would have to be after they liberate Daein first." Elincia said.
"Will that be possible? Well, I leave that to you guys then, I'm not good with politics. I'm off then."
"Wait, Sir Ike. Please come to Melior before you go to Daein, I'll give you a horse." Geoffrey said.
Ike thanked Geoffrey and left Melior back into Greil Mercenary fort. When Ike reached the fort no one was there only Rolf left.
"Where's the others?" Ike started.
"They left to deal with some bandits. So what did Queen Elincia want you to do for her?" Rolf closed the door that Ike came in through.
"Elincia wanted me to investigate Daein. She said that there's something up in Daein. I guess I've to leave the others for a while but that shouldn't be any problem. Can I trust you to relay the message?" Ike asked the green haired boy.
"Whaaa! That's not fair, I want to go with you too. We can leave a note for the others" Rolf said.
"Are you sure you want to go to Daein?" Ike said.
"Well, I want to see how Daein looks like now, I think that it going to be good with Ashnard." Rolf smiled.
"Looks like I can't force you to stay here right? Then I respect your decision, go pack your things. We leave as soon as we can." Rolf ran to pack his thing. Ike wrote a note and leave it on the table. Ike went to pack herbs, vulnerary, food, water and anything that necessary for the travel.
"So are we ready?" Ike asked.
"Yes. Let's go Ike!" Rolf took his bow and a pack of his handmade arrows with him.
The two left the fort and went to Melior. The scene in Crimea right now is beautiful. Without war Crimea was a really beautiful country with their forest that link with Gallia and close to the Serenes forest.
Elincia and her vassals waited Ike at the Melior gate.
"Sir Ike, this is the best horse we could give you right now, please take good care of him, but when you reached Daein. If you think it's too dangerous, you can leave him. He was trained to know way back to this castle." Geoffrey led the horse to Ike.
"Hmm, you're Rolf right? You're going with Sir Ike too?" Lucia asked.
"Yep, Lady Lucia. I want to see how Daein really looks like maybe it's has the same beautiful views as Crimea." Rolf said.
"Hmm, if you go with Sir Ike, then it's okay to suppose that your journey is going to be safer." Bastion said and everyone laughed.
"Hey, I'm not that careless." Ike said.
"Sir Ike, please…be careful. We don't know what is happening in Daein right now, but at the least looks like the bandits there have run wild." Elincia wished good luck for Ike and Rolf. Soon they bid farewell to each sides. Ike rode the horse with Rolf out of the Melior into Daein territory.
"Ike…do you love queen Elincia?" Rolf asked the swordsmaster.
"Why do you ask?" Ike asked back.
"Well…never mind…I think I know the answer in your word." Rolf said.
"Prepare yourself, we're going to get into Daein Territory. We have to slip pass through the guards, into Daein's capital, Nevassa.
"Okay…….." Rolf got into silence for a while. When they reached the post they saw Muston and his merchant caravan.
"Hey, Ike! And Rolf too. What're you two doing here, away from Crimea?" Muston asked.
"Well, we're here to investigate something in Daein." Ike replied.
"Then hop on the caravan, I don't think you could get pass the guard post right?" Ike left the horse and let it ran back into Crimea. They hopped into the caravan just like they were told.
"Ahhh, Ike, my hero. You come here to find me on purpose?" Aimee teased Ike with her old habits.
"Aimee, don't say anything like that here. His name is famous around these parts." Daniel said.
"You're right, I'm sorry Ike." Ike smiled and said not to worry about it.
"Your name was Rolf right? If I remember correctly, what are you doing here with Ike? Jorge asked the puppy eyed boy.
"Well, I want to see what Daein really looks like when they're at peaceful state" Rolf said.
"Shhh, quiet! We're going to pass the outpost." Aimee said.
The Begnion soldiers searched throughout caravan, Ike and Rolf were nervous. If they got capture right now, it will ruin everything.
"Good, you may pass." The guard said and everyone sighed. Now after they've passed the checkpoint, the pass to Nevassa for Ike and Rolf are clear.
Muston rode the caravan passed the checkpoint. After they got far away from the checkpoint, Ike and Rolf bid farewell to them and left for Nevassa.
"Daein really looks peaceful…if not for Ashnard. This would've been another beautiful country." Rolf commented.
"Yeah, I agree." They walked on the field for a long time and they reach the capital by nightfall.
Ike saw Rolf walked staggering so he asked the boy "Are you okay Rolf?"
"I'm…okay…don't worry…" Rolf tried to ensure Ike but it only caused Ike to get more worry. Ike put his hand on the sniper's head and he realized that the boy had fever.
"I shouldn't bring you along, you can't withstand the sudden change of climate." Rolf fell to the ground as soon as Ike finished his last word.
"Rolf, hold on!" Ike carried the boy onto his back but before he can move away from the gate of Nevassa. He heard a fuss in the ruin around those parts. He decided that it wouldn't hurt to take a look. Ike saw a silver haired girl got captured by Begnion soldiers. Ike gritted his teeth. It was true, everything Elincia told him.
Begnion was suppressing Daein's people all along. Ike thought that it was part of his fault that Daein really go into this state so he wanted to help them even a little. Ike put Rolf down where the shadow covered him. Ike ran up behind the group of Begnion soldiers and took one down by surprised.
Begnion soldiers turned their weapon around and charged into Ike but Ike easily dodged the attacks, because Begnion occupations army didn't have any experience in fighting. Ike killed them all one by one. The silver haired girl watched the swordsman killing every soldiers and when he turn his face to her.
The girl crawled back, the blood that stained on the swordsman's face scared her.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. It's all right now, please come out." Ike stretched out his hand to the girl. The girl looked frightened at first but somehow she gladly took his hand and stand up.
"Are you okay?" The blue haired mercenary asked.
"I'm all right, thank you." The girl gave her gratitude to the mercenary.
"Then, take care. I'm in a bit of hurry." Ike was about to leave but the girl stopped him.
"If you don't mind…you could come to stay with me tonight in return for helping me out." The girl asked.
"I have a friend, who've got a fever…it will trouble you a lot." Ike was afraid that it would sell him out who he really is.
"I can look after that friend of your…tomorrow he will be fine and strong as normal." The girl told the boy
"…Okay, I guess I take your kindness." Ike carried Rolf and walked after the girl. But the path was hidden so good that if you didn't walk around these part many times, you won't realized that it has a shortcut.
"We're here." The girl opened the door and everyone get into the house. "Put the boy on the bed." Ike did as he was told. "Then close your eyes." The girl saw Ike closed his eyes, then she put her hand on the green haired boy and a green light shined from her hand.
Soon the green haired boy got up and he was really fine like normal.
"How did I get here?" Ike quickly opened his eyes to saw the boy who came with him is fine.
"What did you do?" Ike turned to face the golden eyed girl.
"Does it really matter what did I do? I want to rest, sorry…you can use this room…excuse me." The girl left the boy alone.
"What did that girl do anyway? Nah, it doesn't matter just like she said I guess…so Rolf, are you feeling better?" Ike put his hand on the boy forehead.
"Yeah, I never felt anything good like this before, it feels like a weight has been lifted off from my shoulder." Rolf said. "Thanks…Ike, you carried me all the way here right?" Ike smiled and said
"It doesn't matter, you're like a little brother to me." The boys smiled for each other.
"So what're we going to do next?" Rolf asked.
"Well, we can worry about that later. Right now let's get some rest and we can decide what to do tomorrow." Rolf nodded. Soon the young sniper slept. But Ike still curious about what the girl did to Rolf.
Ike got up from his bed and walked to the girl's room. He slowly opened the door so it wouldn't wake the girl up. He walked slowly to the girl's bed. But he tripped something in the shadow and he fell toward the girl and their lips met.
The girl woke up and tried pushed Ike down but her hand didn't have the power to push Ike away. But Ike broke off from the position and apologized to the girl.
"Sorry,…I wasn't mean to do that to you." Ike said his sorry. But the girl's face turned red and kept on silence.
"I…just want to ask what did you do to Rolf…" Ike spoke
"Are you curious that bad that you have to known why?" The girl asked.
"Well…if it's something personal…then I don't want to force it out of you." Ike replied his sincere answer.
"Thank you…now I think you better go get some rest." Ike nodded and said apologize to the girl. Before the girl went back to sleep she put her fingers on her lips and said "He's so good looking, even though he's clumsy but that's what so attractive of him." The girl tried to stop thinking about this sort of thing and went back to sleep.
Ike thought back about the girl's lip, it was mild and yet…it felt so comfortable. Ike stopped thinking about the girl and think back to what Elincia sent him to do in Daein.
But right now he wanted to sleep before thinking of anything else.
It was a peaceful sleep for everyone, no Begnion soldiers to interrupt the time for sleeping.
The sun rose and it's mean that Ike will have to decided what he have to act next.
Ike watched the sun rise and he reminiscence his past three years ago. Crimea had the same view as Daein. Ike woke Rolf up to prepare for theirs next move.
"Umm, you guys. I made you some breakfast." The girl opened the door and told the boys.
"Thanks, you've done so much for us, even though we're strangers." Ike thanked the girl
"You helped me, if you didn't help me back there. I would've been taken away and I known that you're honest…but I still don't know your names, so can you tell me please?"
"Umm…I don't think we have honor to give you our names" Ike said.
"You have honor, in my eyes." The girl replied.
"Well, this is Rolf and I'm Ike." Ike said his name out reluctantly.
"What coincidence, your name is the same as Ike who destroyed Daein three years ago, but you probably not like him. My name is Micaiah." The girl finally said out her name.
Ike looked down for a while, the word that Micaiah said pierce through his heart. Everyone in Daein would probably thought the same way as Micaiah.
They walked together to have breakfast.
"This is delicious!" Rolf commented Micaiah's cooking.
"Yeah, this is good." Ike said the same. Micaiah blushed and thanked the boy.
"What are you two planning to do next?" Micaiah asked the boys. Ike known that he can't tell anyone that they were sent by the queen of Crimea or it can stirred something up.
"We will go investigate story about Begnion occupations army. We want some evidence that tell us about theirs evil deed." Ike trusted the girl because if she was with Begnion from the start, they wouldn't capture her.
"That isn't all of your story…isn't it?" Micaiah asked what the boys haven't told the girl
"Wow! You senses are amazing!" Rolf was excited with Micaiah sense in catching lie.
"You two are from Crimea…right?" Micaiah asked. "Because I never seen your faces around Daein."
"…….You're right…We're from Crimea." Ike said.
"Ike, is it okay to give out where we came from?" Rolf said.
"I believe in Micaiah…I know from her honest eyes." Ike said.
"You can't find evidence…trust me. They've senator of Begnion cover theirs deed, besides I thought that it was the senate who ordered them." The girl said.
"Then, I trust that you know about the Dawn Brigade then, I heard that they're all famous in Daein." Ike asked the girl of Dawn Brigade whereabouts.
"You really wanted to know whereabouts of the Dawn Brigade? Why would you want to know about them?" Micaiah asked.
"I heard that they're liberating Daein, if so we wanted to help them." Ike said.
"…You two are weird, you know that? Why would you two, as a Crimea citizen want to help Daein out, why are you here in the first place?" Micaiah began to question their intentions.
"What? Helping out a people in need has a requirement? Like where're you from?" Rolf asked back.
"…You have point…I'm sorry that I questioned you." Micaiah apologized.
"Micaiah, are you awake?" A boy sound speaking from outside of the house.
"Yes, come in." The door opened and a browned hair boy walked in with a yellow haired boy. When the new youth saw the others, they prepared to fight.
"Micaiah, who are these guy?" The yellow haired boy asked. "Friends of your?" The brown haired continued the question.
"Yes, they're my friend. Actually they helped me out last night, when I got captured by Begnion soldiers." The boy relaxed as the girl told them there is nothing to worry.
Then Micaiah introduced the boy to each other, the brown haired is Edward while the Yellow haired is Leonardo. And it's go the same to them. Now that they're known each other name, Micaiah decided to ask something from Ike and Rolf.
"So are you still insisted on helping the Dawn Brigade?" Micaiah asked the Crimean.
"Yes, we come here for that purpose." Ike replied.
"…….We're the Dawn Brigade that you're seeking…" Micaiah said.
"Really!? Ike, this is good. We don't have to find them." Rolf said and get very lively.
"Hey, errr….you're name was Rolf right? How old are you? I guess you're still about 14-16 years right?" The brown haired boy asked the green haired.
"Yeah, you're right." Edward jumped into Rolf after he known the sniper's age. "You're the same age as me. This is cool! I got a friend around my age" Edward hugged Rolf and everyone laughed.
"So…The Dawn Brigade is just the three of you?" Ike asked.
"No, we have two more allies. But they're on another mission." Leonardo replied.
"So what're your next plan?" Ike asked.
"We waited for those two, and then we decided what to do next." Micaiah said.
"Hey, you rouge! You're in there right!? Surrender and we spare your life" A Begnion soldiers shouted from outside the house.
"Looks like you can't wait for them right now. Anyway to avoid head on battle with them?" Ike asked.
Micaiah opened the secret door at the back of the house. Everyone quickly evacuated from the house through the secret door but Begnion won't let them escape easily.
"I'll hold them off, you three get away." Ike said
"But you alone can't hold all of them." Micaiah said and everyone stopped running.
"I'll stay with him, we catch up with you guys later." Leonardo said.
"Rolf, protect them okay? No matter what will happen." Rolf nodded and ran with the rest of the Dawn Brigade.
"Stay behind me, you'll be safe." Ike told Leonardo.
"I can fight too." Leonardo gripped his bow and ready his arrows.
"Okay…but if things get too hot, ran away, I'll hold them off." Leonardo nodded.
The Begnion soldiers came in huge number, they charged with theirs weapon recklessly. Ike slashed them with his Ettard and Leonardo slew the enemies from afar. The Begnion seemed to have unlimited soldiers to them, no matter how many they cut down. They always keep coming.
Micaiah, Edward and Rolf kept running away to the next hideout. While they're running away, Micaiah can't help to worry about them.
"I'm worry about them." Micaiah said.
"Don't worry, Ike is very strong. Amateur won't be able to scratch Ike even a little" Rolf said
"…I'm curious...who is this Ike anyway? And his name is the same as the one who crushed Daein three years ago too." Edward asked the sniper.
"ehh…maybe it's just a coincidence that theirs name match…" Rolf spoke stammer.
Micaiah put a looked her face that looked like she realized something from Rolf's word. She looked sad and seemed confused a few seconds later.
"So how long do we have to keep running?" Rolf asked the Dawn Brigade members.
"Not long, we're almost near to our next hideout." They ran with no rest still there are some Begnion soldiers trailed on them. An arrow flew right into Edward's leg.
"Edward!" Micaiah quickly go to Edward side. "Wait, I'll fix you up!" Micaiah said and put her hands on his wound. Edward grabbed her hand
"Micaiah, I'm going to be okay, don't put much strain on yourself." Edward slowly pulled off the arrow that stuck in his leg
"There are many Begnion soldiers around here, be careful. They're not normal Begnion soldiers." Rolf said
"Micaiah, go informed the others…I'll stay here and try to hold them off." Edward stood up and gripped his sword.
"No, I'll fight with you! I don't want to leave anyone behind again." Micaiah said and prepared her tome.
"You're the core of the Dawn Brigade, if you get capture, all hope will be lost. Remember although we're family, we're still not related by blood. Besides I didn't fight alone right?" Edward turned his eyes to Rolf. Rolf nodded and told Micaiah to go, he'll stay with Edward and hold them off.
Micaiah ran as fast as she could, soon she can't be seen by the boys.
"Let me do the fighting, you can rest." Rolf told the other boy.
"No, I'm fine. I can fight." The other boy replied and takes out his sword.
"Don't slow me down, okay?" The Begnion soldiers came at them but something was different. They were well trained soldier, although they came in a dozens number. Rolf started the battle with his arrow struck into one of Begnion soldier neck. Edward was able to hit some of them, he also managed to dodged many of the incoming attack.
Back to Ike side, the Begnion soldiers still keep coming at them. Ike got shot by arrows at his left and his legs while he tried to protect Leonardo. But he was still able to drive Begnion soldiers away.
The fighting continue until a light of flame magic that was used instead of flare, the Begnion soldier retreated leaving the boys alone and vanished from theirs sight.
"Why did they retreat suddenly?" Leonardo supported Ike to stand and walk normally.
"We can think of that later, we should join with the others. Which way are we going?" Ike asked and Leonardo replied by pointing the way.
They walked together to the way that the others used to run. They saw blood stained on the floor, and Begnion soldiers lifeless bodies. But they had to be surprised when they saw Edward lied on the floor with Rolf no where to be found.
"Edward!!!" Ike told Leonardo to go at his friend side quickly, he can stand by himself. Leonardo ran to Edward as he was told. Edward was beaten up bad, sword, arrows, lance, these wound were found throughout his body. It was a miracle that he was still breathing.
"Edward, what happened?" Leonardo used his hands to put Edward's head higher.
"Le..o..nar..do?" Edward tried to say out his friend name.
"Yes, It's me hold on." Leonardo tried to comfort his friend.
"Please…help…Rolf…because…of me…Rolf…was taken…away." Edward coughed in blood.
"I'm sure Rolf will be fine, now we have to tend your wound! You can worry about that later" Ike said
"Ike…I'm…sorry…because of…me your…friend…." Ike stopped Edward from saying anything further to save his energy.
"Everyone!" Micaiah ran back with a tall, short beard, darken browned hair, and axe wielding man.
"Edward, what happened..." Micaiah was shocked to see his wound.
"Micaiah, please treat his wound first." Micaiah nodded, she took out Vulnerary and tended it on Edward's wounds. Then she put her hand over the small wound and a green light shined on her hand. And some of Edward's wounds were healed
Micaiah fell to the ground afterward but was able to get up by the help of man that came with her.
"Let's go back to our hideout first. Ike…will it be all right if we go back first?" Leonardo asked the mercenary.
"No…it's fine…" Ike replied and they walked back to their hideout. They rested and wait for Edward to wake up. Micaiah tended Ike's wounds, although Ike said that it didn't hurt much.
Everyone was worried about Edward, but Ike was worried about Rolf too. Edward woke up and tried to tell everyone what happened.
"The soldiers that Ike and Leonardo fought…was a decoy force. They knew that we will use this path to escape them, they sent veteran soldiers to trap us…Rolf…got captured because he was protecting me…" Edward told everyone what happened. "Please…help Rolf…they gonna use him as a bait to lure you out, Micaiah." Edward continued.
"I'll go." Ike said.
"Please take me with you…I want to help him…" Edward tried to get up but everyone stopped him.
"If you go in that state, you're only slowing me down." Ike said.
"I'll go with you, Ike." Micaiah said this time
"I don't want to take you either, I think I should go alone. Don't worry, I'll be fine."
"…Of course…you'll be fine…because you're---never mind…then please take care." Micaiah let Ike go because she knew something about Ike from Rolf's word.
'Let me go, you meatheads!" Rolf shouted while he was carried by Begnion soldier.
"Shut up brat, we let our boss decide what to do with you next. If you make any trouble, you're gonna hurt painfully like your friend." The soldier carried him into the room with another few soldiers.
They tied his hand together and pinned so he couldn't escape. The soldiers left him be, because they didn't want to get into any trouble with their boss.
Rolf was thinking of Ike, what is he doing right now. Rolf was thinking of what he will face against.
The door slammed opened, and one soldier that looked like the general come in.
"hmmm, so you're the kid who got capture?" The general smirked "Now that I take a look at your face, you going to look so adorable, hahaha!" Rolf was left in fear because of the man's laughing.
Soon Rolf's doubt turned into despair. His lip met with the General lip. He got dominated quickly by the general tongue swiftness.
"Hmmm, you look sweet all over" General began to unbuttoned Rolf's shirt and taking it off. Rolf can't escape nor resist any of the general actions. But there was one thing that he couldn't forgive himself, he found pleasure in the general actions.
The General soldier began to kiss Rolf again this time he use his tongue to explored every corner of Rolf's mouth. And he slid his hand under Rolf's shirt and rubbing his chest. Rolf sweat all over the time that his chest got rubbed by another guy's hand. Rolf jumped when one of the rough hands slid under his short.
Rolf moaned out as the time passed. He tried to say something
"Plea…please…..s..s-top….." The soldier stopped as he was told and teased Rolf "Are you sure you want me to stop?"
Rolf's face went red and the soldier laughed at him "See? Even you want me stop but your body is saying that it want more." The soldier forced his lip on Rolf again. Rolf tears began to swell up in his eyes. Rolf panted when he got broke off from the kiss.
"This is why, I told you're so adorable." The soldier said.
"General, do you hear me? The senator called for you." A voice called from outside.
"Hmph, just when I'm having fun, I would love to see your service again kid." The man left the room.
"Guard this door, no one shall pass!" He ordered his men to guard the door with theirs lives.
The man made his way to the senator room. He knocked the door before he opened it.
"What do you want of me, milord?" The man gently bowed down before his lord.
"I heard that we captured a prisoner, is he of the Dawn Brigade?" The senator asked his underling.
"Although, we never saw the boy face before, he was fighting with one of the Dawn Brigade's member. If we use him as bait, surely, they will come to rescue him." The senator approved of his plan to use Rolf as bait, and they told the soldiers to announce to the public that they will execute a criminal, accused him of attacking the Begnion soldiers.
Soon the news spread like wildfire, and reach the Dawn Brigade's ear. They could only hope that Ike can rescue Rolf before tomorrow come.
Ike was running around the Begnion barracks in the night, he searched for a way to infiltrated in without being seen. But the barracks have been guarded very well.
The only way to sneak in around he has right now is to disguise as a Begnion soldier.
He waited for a chance to make a sneak attack on Begnion soldiers. When he had the chance too, he quickly grabbed the Begnion soldier into a bush and disposed the soldier. He changed into the Begnion soldier uniform although it seemed a little tight for him, he left his clothes on the same bush. He walked into the barracks wield with lance that he got from the soldier he finished off.
He tried to walk around and pretend that he was patrolling. The soldiers were looking forward to see the Dawn Brigade to fall tomorrow. Ike gritted his teeth, he can't allow the Dawn Brigade to fall or else he will fail his objective that he has been sent for.
Ike sneaked into one of the barrack, and he heard the soldiers talking about how pretty face the boy that they captured the other day was. Ike pretended to be a new Begnion soldier. He walked into that group.
"Umm…I've heard everyone talking about the new captive, how good is he?" Ike asked those soldiers.
"Ehhh, you're new here? Too bad, you've to see his face. He looked really pretty adorable, like a girl." The Begnion looked excited with the subject they're talking about.
"I want to see his face too, it looks very interesting. Do you know a way how to see his face?" Ike asked the soldiers.
"Of course! Follow me." One of the soldiers guided Ike into another barrack. He told Ike to peer through the window, Ike saw Rolf but his face looked pale and bruises all over his body.
"He looks really pretty rightttt?" The soldier laughed. Ike grinned.
"Thank you for showing me where he is" After Ike finished his sentence, he take out his sword and finished off the soldier that came with him before that soldier caused any trouble to him. He told himself that he had to get Rolf out of that place no matter what it takes.
Ike walked into the barrack but it doesn't look up to its name. It looked horrible, dark, dimmed. A perfect place for jail. Ike walked through the hallway, it was one way hall. If the captives were lucky to break out they still won't have a chance in getting far.
Every room didn't have any guard, except one room that had three soldiers guarding the door. Ike known that this door has something specially and it can't be any other than Rolf's room.
Ike caught one of the guards out of the surprise, he was able to finish that soldier with lance that he wasn't skilled with. Ike finished off the rest of the soldiers, luckily, the soldiers that guard the door wasn't the one who beat Rolf and Edward.
Ike opened the door to see Rolf being hanged on the wall by rope. Ike cut the rope and put Rolf down in his arm.
"Rolf, are you okay? Please be safe" Ike asked the sniper
"Ike?...you've come…for me?" Rolf spoke out slowly to form out a word.
"Of course, I can't leave you behind. Now let's get out of here." Ike carried Rolf up, Ike saw Rolf's jacket at his feet and pick it up too.
Ike ran out of the barrack, few of the soldiers saw a shadow figurine ran out of the barrack, they went to check in the barrack that Ike come out. After they realized that theirs captive have ran away. They warned the entire camp.
Ike changed his clothes back from the heavy armor to his usual clothes. Ike carried Rolf and ran away, back to the way that Dawn Brigade hideout was positioned.
The soldiers came after him eventually, they quickly found his trail. When he was about to reached the hideout. Leonardo shown up,
"Why are you here?" Ike panted as he asked.
"Micaiah said that you'll be here, so I've waited here. The Begnion soldiers are coming this way right? Let's go then, everyone is waiting outside of the forest. We leave this place." Leonardo said.
They ran away into the outskirt of the Nevassa and . They saw the Begnion burned down the house to ashes.
"Is he okay?" Leonardo asked about the boy condition
"I don't think he's okay at the moment." When Leonardo saw Rolf's wounds and bruises, he quickly show the way to Micaiah. They ran to reunited with the others.
Micaiah ran up to Rolf, when she put her hands on Rolf's body. She felt very sad feelings emitted from the boy. She used her power to restore the bruises on his body. Her tears swelled up from her eyes, she known that she can't heal his wound in the heart.
She can do nothing but said apologized to him, for getting him mixed up in this.
"Don't worry…It was I who chose this path…so don't blame yourself…please…for me…" Rolf told Micaiah and she known that Rolf's word were coming from his true feelings but the pain hasn't gone away. But she decided not to say anything at the moment.
They decided that they should stay in another village that far from Nevassa, so they could have time to rest. They stayed in a little city between Nevassa and Talrega. Micaiah's bird flew into the sky. "Yune, reach Sothe okay?"
Ike was surprised to hear the name from Micaiah's lip. "Ike…" Micaiah eyes were saddened when she look at Ike. "Can I have a word with you Ike?" Ike nodded and followed her to have a talk alone.
"Ike…you…you're the one who crushed Daein three year ago right? You're from the renowned Greil Mercenary that save the queen of Crimea right?" Micaiah's word struck through Ike's heart and mind like arrows. He didn't want them to find out where he and Rolf came from, because it could make everything worse.
Please Rate&Review. I'm writing both new chapter for my fics too. I'll try to update it soon as I can.
