Another story! Yay! This story is going to be my own version of part 1:the Silver-haired Maiden from Radiant Dawn. Poor start right now,but it'll get better when more characters come in. Starting out of nowhere right now,basically. Also, remember this: some things that the characters say may be direct quotes from the game. I do not own these quotes,I do not own the characters or the entire series or anything having to do with the series! Now,enjoy,and tell me what you think of it so far,through a review! I also do not own some chapter titles,such as "Under Gray Skies",that is a quote from the game.


"Don't worry,Micaiah. We can take them." Edward said,watching a bandit closely.

"That's not what i'm worried about." Micaiah responded.

Then what are you-" Ed started before a bandit approached him. He barely had any time to raise his blade in defense. The bandit swung at him with his axe but,luckily for Edward,he missed. Edward took advantage of the bandit's missed blow and struck his chest. The bandit fell forward,clutching his chest.

"You pathetic dog!" Edward heard the bandit's boss scream from the other end of the street.

"What were you saying?" Edward asked,running back to Micaiah.

"I'm worried about Leonardo. Where could he be?" Micaiah asked.

"He'll be here. Don't worry." Edward replied.

"You always tell me not to worry,and yet,I always do!"

"That's not my fault."

Another bandit was approaching the two of them. This time,Micaiah handled it. She cast a spell of Light,and the bandit fell.

"Nice job." Edward complimented.

No more bandits approached. Edward decided to approach them. Micaiah insisted he be careful. Edward took silent steps and hid behind a cart of boxes. He peeked at the bandit on the other side of the cart,and,once he wasn't looking Edward's way, Edward jumped. He stepped on the cart first,then the first box,then the second. He jumped down from his high position with his sword in a lethal position,and plunged the sword into the bandit. He knocked the bandit over,pulling his blade out of the body. The bandit was still.

Now Edward was in the middle of two other bandits. He wasn't very proud of his move at this moment. Right when a bandit was approaching,an arrow was shot. The arrow landed in the bandit's arm. Another arrow was released and found its place in the bandit's chest,making him fall.

Leonardo hurried down from his position at the top of the steps to meet Micaiah.

"Micaiah!"

"Leonardo! How did you find us?"

"A little bird told me. Yours,in fact."

Micaiah was cornered by another bandit. The only thing she could do was wait for someone to notice her in trouble. It didn't take Edward long to notice that she was in trouble. He ran to the bandit and slashed at his back. The bandit turned around,thinking that eliminating this boy was only going to take a little while. He raised his axe and lowered it quickly,aiming for Edward's chest. Edward dodged the blow with only minimal damage(minimal damage compared to death). Edward staggered backwards and fell. He tried getting back on his feet,but he couldn't. Micaiah figured now was the best time to strike,while the bandit was distracted. She cast Light on the bandit while his back was turned,and he fell forward.

"This didn't have to happen." Micaiah told the fallen body. Then she turned her attention to Edward, "Edward,you're hurt!"

"But,you're not,Micaiah. That's all that matters." Edward responded.

"Hand me your vulnerary!" Micaiah demanded.

"Now's not the time. When we're out of this fight,i'll heal myself."

---

Leonardo shot at the only remaining bandit,the boss. The boss dodged the arrow as well as he could,but the arrow still skimmed his shoulder. Edward ran towards the boss. Leonardo and Edward had him cornered.

"Give up and we won't take your life!" Edward demanded.

"Ha!" was the bandit's simple reply.

"Okay,then..."

Edward attacked the bandit's arm,the same arm that Leonardo's arrow had skimmed. The bandit tried attacking back,but he missed. Micaiah ran over to the other members of the Dawn Brigade to help. She spotted the bandit as he was falling to his knees. Then Micaiah finished the job. She cast Light on the fallen thief,and he fell even farther down.

After the battle,a couple of Daein townspeople showed up to congratulate the three Dawn Brigade members.

"You there! What are you doing? Stop immediately!" a Begnion solder demanded from a higher up street.

"Well,well,well. Look who decided to show up...Begnion soldiers. They certainly took their time,didn't they?" Edward asked.

"We mustn't be caught. Micaiah! Edward! Make a break for it. Run!" Leonardo insisted.

"I'm sorry." Micaiah said to the townspeople, "We have to leave."

"I know." one of the townspeople said, "Thank you for all you've done. Now,go! Run!"

"Hey lady! My name's Nico! When I grow up,I want to be just like you guys! Come back sometime!" a little boy named Nico said.

The three members of the Dawn Brigade couldn't spend much more time here,so they ran. Nico waved goodbye to his new heroes,and they disappeared into an alley.
