I present you the latest story, I Can't Be This Popular!
Check my profile out, I just set up a poll.
Before we start the story, I want to say that I changed a few things in this story but I won't reveal them since it might be consider as a spoiler.
Warning: There must be some Fates spoilers for anyone that don't play the new game yet…(No, I don't have this game yet since it won't come out until this Friday, for these who wonder about it.)
Now it's time to read the first chapter of ODLW?!
Disclaimer: I don't own Fire Emblem series.
Chapter One: The Reincarnation
The giant red dragon fall to the ground with a booming thump and many warriors cheer for their victory. The hooded man pat the red-haired man's back, congratulating him for deliver the final blow to the dragon and the red-haired man move his mouth but no sound come out. The hooded man turn his head to a girl with a light blue hair and he notice something out of the corner of his eyes before he run toward the girl. He shove the girl away and before anyone know it, a giant claw impale him in the stomach, the giant dragon used its' last breath to take one of them down.
"Mark!" The swordwoman with green hair rush to his side as everyone run up to them with shocked expressions and the woman open her mouth to plead something but no sound come out.
"I…I re…I remember everything…My name…" The hood slide off his head to reveal his white hair as he choke on his blood and his eyes slowly close, the last thing he saw was his comrades."My…Name…Is…"
"Robin!" The blue-haired man stare at the white-haired man with widened eyes as the white-haired man raise his fist up in air with cracking magic, aiming at a man that would pass off as his twin if it wasn't for his glowing eyes and purple mist. The white-haired man slightly turns his head to the blue-haired man to give him a smirk and he can see a large group of warriors rush toward them in the distance. The twin charge to him with a demonic roar, only to be killed by the white-haired man as he shot a giant purple ball at the twin and everything explode in a bright white light. He can feel himself slowly fade away into nothingness and his eyes slowly widened as something pop in his head.
"My…" The white-haired man whispered softly, "My…My name…Is…"
The giant odd orb with several eyes vanish in a flash of light, the large army have won the war but at a cost. The bloodied white-haired man fall back into the arm of a girl with red armor and she shout something at him with tears in her eyes but like before, there was no words at all. "Corrin!" The regal man in a Samurai-like armor run to his side with a blonde man in a black armor and the white-haired man glance at them with a puzzled expression before he shift his eyes to the incoming army.
"…Corrin?" The white-haired man muttered tiredly as one of the women grabbed his hand, "…No…My name…Is…"
"Draco." A teenager wakes up in his bed, staring at the ceiling groggily before he sits up with a yawn. He has a wild white hair that reach to his shoulder, a odd large circle birthmark under his bang that look like an symbol, and ruby eyes that would make people believe him to be an albino, he seems to be around fifteen. He shifts around to get himself out of his bed and he shiver at the coldness as soon as his feet touch the floor. "Crazy dream…" He muttered tiredly as he pulls the drawer out to pick his clothes out and he head to the bathroom for a quick wash. He pulls his brown pant up and he slides his light white tunic on before he put his boots on, quickly head outside.
"Morning, Draco." The teenager, now known as Draco, turns his head to see an old farmer as he wipe the sweats off his forehead with a napkin.
"Morning, Thomas." Draco lifts his hand up lazily, "Grow anything yet?"
"I'm afraid not." Thomas sighed, "It's a bad year for crop…Maybe we can't have any festive this year."
"Shame, the kids were looking forward to it." Draco frown.
"Or you were looking forward to spend some time at festive with Sister Gaia." Thomas smirked.
"I-I-I don't have idea what you are talking about!" Draco stomped away from him with a massive blush and the old farmer chuckle at him heartily.
"Big bro!" Seven children run around Draco as soon as he shows up outside a small orphanage near a church.
"Hey, kids." Draco greeted them with a smile, "Is Sister Gaia inside?"
"Yes." The children said at once before a young blonde girl speaks up, "Are you going to tell big sis that you like her?"
"No, he'll chicken out like always!" The red-haired girl with pigtails giggled.
"Or big sis will reject him for the fifth time." The ten years old boy grinned cheekily.
"Hey!" Draco slumped his shoulders sulkily, "It was seventh time…"
"Give it up." The blonde chubby boy deadpanned, "Big sis don't like you at all because you're so weird and freaky." Draco feel like he just got stab by an arrow, "She think that you are an monster when she saw you cut this big ass tree down with a sword by using a weird technique…On the first day when you get a sword!" A second arrow pierces him.
"Ooh, she gets really scared when you try a basic spell for first time and you set the hut on fire with a lot of cool explosives!" The little black boy threw his hands up with a wide grin as another arrow hit Draco, "Boom! Boom!"
"I heard that she told someone that she think you're a real devil." A twelve years old black-haired girl spoke up as the fourth arrow flew into his chest, "Because you can see the future by watching someone and you know if someone is telling a lie…Like when you call out on Mary when she lied about her affair with a murderer who killed her husband and you know that she was going to stab you with a knife before you disarm her while the sheriff arrest her."
"I overhear her the another day when she talk to someone else that she won't get with you at all and she will keep reject you until you give up." The little boy with freckles replied as the final arrow stab Draco again and he suddenly curls up in a ball with a comical tears. "Oh, he's sulking again…"
"It's all your fault." The blonde girl glared at her fellow orphans.
"No, it's not our fault!" The chubby boy pointed at sulking teenager, "It's his fault for being so weird, creepy freak!"
"Y-Y-You know that I can hear you, right?" Draco muttered with a sniffle.
"Children, who are you talking to…" They all looked up to see a slender nun with a long flowing black hair and blue eyes before she notice Draco and she stiffen up with a nervous smile, "Oh…Hello, Draco."
"Hello, Sister Gaia." Draco quickly stands up as he rubs his neck, "Just drop by to say hello to the kids before I go to the work, I'm almost done with my creation and I am going to test them out…Sister, are you going to be busy at afternoon? I want to…"
"I'm busy." Gaia cut him off.
"Oh, then how about…"
"I'm busy the whole day and the next day." The nun quickly replied, "I'm also busy for the whole week."
"I-I-I see…" Draco sulked with slumped shoulders.
"I told you, give up already." The chubby boy scoffed at him, "Big sis don't like you because you're a freak and you scare her."
"Marco, what are you…" Gaia raised her eyebrow at the chubby boy before Draco suddenly run off with a wail.
"Wah, you're all so cruel!" Draco wailed comically with waving arms and the villagers just ignore the commotion as if it was just a normal day.
"Wait, Draco!" Gaia called out but he vanishes from her sight before she turns around to the children, "What did you just said to him?"
"We told him what you think of him." The boy with freckles answered, "You think that big bro is a devil and monster and you're scared of him because your face goes red all the time."
"…No, no, children, I'm not scared of him and it's rude to call someone names…." The nun said.
"But you called him these!" The black boy pointed at her.
"Oh, dear, I think there are some misunderstood…" Gaia muttered, she can't tell the orphans the truth about these certain words because it was too dirty for them to hear it and it look like she have to clear things up with Draco.
"Got rejected again?" A massive bulky Asian man with beard raised his eyebrow at the whimpering teenager, they were in a blacksmith hut.
"Y-Yeah…" Draco sighed, "That is the eighth time now…Boss, do you think I should give up on her?"
"Yes." His boss deadpanned, "She's a nun and you're just some guy with no memories that she found outside the village…"
"At least I remember my name." Draco muttered, "…Alright, I'm giving up on her…"
"Finally, now get back to work!" The blacksmith tossed him the apron, "Some soldiers ordered a few weapons yesterday and they are coming to pick it up this afternoon."
"Are they in same unit or…?" Draco tied his apron with a curiosity tone.
"Nah, look like they are from different units since they come in at different time." His boss grunted before they start their work.
Half of the day later, Draco wrap the weapons in a red bundle and he wipe his sweating forehead as he glance at his boss, wrapping second set of weapons in a blue bundle. "All done here, boss."
"Good work, lad." The blacksmith grunted before the teenager notice a sword on the table.
"Boss, what about this one?" Draco pointed it out, "Where does this one go?"
"Ah, neither." His boss replied, "A lady ask me for a quick repair when you were working in back. She'll pick it up sooner…" He glanced outside to see a figure before he notice two more figures coming in from different directions, "Oh, there they are."
"I'm gonna wash my face." Draco muttered as he walks over to the bucket and he splashes the water on his face, listening to their voices.
"Is my sword repaired?" A feminine voice spoke.
"I'm here to pick up the order." A cheerful voice rang out.
"Ditto." The third voice sound very cheerful like the second voice.
"Yeah, yeah, they all are ready." The blacksmith grunted before he turn his head to the teenager, "Draco, bring them over!"
"Yes, boss." Draco quickly dries his face and he collects the bundles with a sword, turning around to see three women. The first woman appears to be in her twenties and she has a long green hair, tied up in a high ponytail. The other two girls seems to be in their teen, the first girl have a short white hair with a black coat with purple odd symbol. The other girl seems to be younger, she has her white hair tied up in a bun and she wears armor. "Here you go, ladies." Draco placed their orders on the table with a smile and he raises his eyebrow as the girls gasp at him with widened eyes.
"M-M-Mark?" The green-haired woman whispered shakily.
"No, I think you mis…" Draco said and before anyone know it, the two girls suddenly glomp him at same time with tears.
"Father!" The younger girl cried.
"Daddy!" The older girl wailed.
"…EH?!" Draco cried out.
"…You have kids at your age?" His boss glanced at him with a raised eyebrow and Draco was about to say something before he hear a gasp behind him, causing him to glance over his shoulder to see Sister Gaia as she stare at them with a blush.
"W-Wait, that's not what…" Draco held his right hand up shakily with a soft whisper.
"It's okay, I'm glad for you." Gaia cut him off as she quickly turns around on her heels, walking away. "I have to go back."
"W-W-Wait…" Draco muttered with a paled expression before he feel someone hug him from behind.
"Mark, I'm glad you're alive…" The woman whispered with tears in her eyes, "I can't believe her when she told me that you were reborn again…"
"Father, I'm glad you're back!" The older girl sobbed in his chest.
"D-D-Daddy…" The younger girl just wailed loudly.
"YOU ALL ARE CONFUSING ME WITH SOMEONE ELSE!" Draco cried out and his boss just watches on as he drinks the water with a blank expression.
And that ends our first chapter of ICBTP! Love it? Hate it? Feedback would be great!
That is just a beginning! That's right, it's a crossover with three different FE games and it look like Draco is the reincarnation of tactician but the question is…Why does he always look same and why is he teenager? How did it happen? Is there a reason behind it? How will it turn out for Draco?
What will happen in the next chapter? Who know? Let's find out next time!
Now here's the bad news…My laptop somehow lose its ability to connect with wifi and I think I may have to send it out for a repair. Good thing that I have a flash driver and a desktop computer but my laptop is the only one that has Microsoft word. More bad news is that if it's fixed faster, I'm taking a two or three weeks break for some down time. Don't worry, it doesn't mean that I will stop writing.
I think that's all I can say for now…Thank you for your time to read it.
Please leave reviews and feedback here. The flames will be burned by the dragons.
