Elvengirl10: well, I finally decided to write a Fire Emblem fic. This is my
first and I will have another one coming, as soon as I can sort out all my
other stories. So yeah.
Disclaimer: I don't own Fire Emblem, but if I did, I would own Ephidel, Jaffar, Eliwood, Hector, Heath, Karel, Guy, Matthew, Erk, Legualt, and pretty much everyone else that I like. I also don't Pirates of the Caribbean but I'll explain that later.
Chapter 1.
Ephidel sat, glaring into the fire. He was in a relatively bad mood. In attempting to transport Ninian, Nils, and Lord Elbert to the Dragon's gate, he had gotten lost. He glanced around to clearing. Jaffar was lying as he usually did. His back facing the fire. His eyes half-open, giving the impression that he was half asleep. Leila lay up against a tree, Nils in her lap. Lord Elbert lay up against another tree, his arm around Ninian.
Ephidel sighed and watched the sun rise. He instinctively put up his hood and went to wake up Jaffar.
Travelling was slow that day, considering that they were lost. They walked single file, Ephidel in front, followed by Ninian and Nils, then Leila, then Lord Elbert, and Jaffar brought up the rear. They kept travelling until they found a castle. This made Ephidel confused.
"That's Kind Desmond's castle," stated Elbert.
"Desmond!!! That means we're in Bern," said Ephidel, anger sweeping over him.
"Why is he getting so angry?" Leila asked Jaffar.
"He's just realised that we've been going in the entirely wrong direction."
"I see. Wait, isn't the Black Fang centered in Bern?"
"Good point." Jaffar walked over to Ephidel and reminded him of this. Ephidel's expression brightened somewhat.
"I get it, we ask them for the help. But wait, both Sonia and Brendan Reed hate me."
"You recall that I am one of the four fangs. They will probably listen to me."
"True enough, but it will be to dangerous to bring them along," he nodded at Leila and the prisoners, "it will just have to be you and me, understood?"
"Yes"
"You know, you just said more than you say in a week," Ephidel remarked.
"....."
"Very funny, wise, guy, let's go." After informing Leila and reminding her of the consequences, the two set off. Leila waited until they were out of earshot before she loosened the prisoners bonds.
"Who are you really?" asked Elbert.
"I'm Leila, an Ostian spy sent to rescue you."
"Are you going to help us escape?" asked Nils.
"Unfortunately no, it's to risky."
"Why?" asked Ninian.
"Ephidel would know, he's inhuman, and Jaffar would have us captured again in mere seconds," Leila replied, "all we can do is wait for now."
"I'm just glad I know I can trust someone," said Elbert. Leila just nodded.
Ephidel and Jaffar skirted round both the castle and the manse and managed to make it to the Black Fang's mountain fortress. They knocked on the door. No one answered. They knocked again. Still no one. They were just about to pound on the door when a young girl opened it. She was shorter than both of them and had bright green hair. She looked at Jaffar and Ephidel strangely.
"Can I help you?" she said politely.
"I need to speak with Sonia," Ephidel answered. For some strange reason, he felt remorse for this girl. 'Why do I feel this pathetic human emotion,' he thought, ' Is it because I know her origins?'
"This way," she said, knocking Ephidel out of his thoughts. They had gone quite a distance when a young man with blond/ brown hair stopped them.
"Where are you off to Nino?" he asked and looked up, "Lord Ephidel, Jaffar, what are you doing here?"
"We require assistance."
"I see, Dad's in the Throne room."
"Thank you," said Ephidel and kept going. Linus stopped Jaffar.
"What happened?" he demanded.
"He got us lost."
"That explains it. You wouldn't be here under normal circumstances."
Ephidel walked into the throne room.
"Sonia, where are you? I need to speak with you!!!" he shouted, " Despite the fact that I'm doing this against my will," he added, under his breath.
"So, one of Lord Nergal's puppets comes seeking advice from me. How pathetic," said Sonia coming up behind him.
"I didn't say I wanted to be here," said Ephidel, turning around to face her, "I just came because I require the Black Fang's assistance."
"Still, you require assistance and made the right decision, coming to me, a perfect being," she said mockingly.
Ephidel just rolled his eyes. How desperately he wanted to reveal the truth to Sonia. But Nergal had told him not to, so he could only laugh at he ignorance.
"So, where are they?" Sonia asked in that same mocking tone.
"Who?" asked Ephidel.
"The children, stupid," Sonia replied.
"Contrary to popular belief I'm not that stupid. I didn't bring them with me," replied Ephidel.
"Where are they?!" she shrieked, her voice resembling nails on chalkboard..
"Like I'd tell you," Ephided answered, feeling very proud that he was actually standing up for himself, without Nergal's help. He narrowly avoided a bolting spell and prepared a dark elfire spell which he fired quickly. The battle between the two of them was on. Sparks flew in every direction. Running was all Brendan Reed could do to prevent himself from getting hurt. He ran out of the throne room, but unfortunately didn't see Jaffar running towards him.
"Oww," the two of them hit the floor hard.
"What the?" said Brendan as he got up. He saw Jaffar getting up as well.
" Jaffar, what are you doing here?" he asked.
"It's a long story, but right now I'm looking for Lord Ephidel. Have you seen him?"
"Yes, he and my wife are currently destroying the throne room, as you can see." Jaffar looked in and was nearly blasted by a lightning bolt.
"This could take a while," he said.
"Yes, it could. So how about you explain your situation to me?"
"Very well"
Elvengirl10: There it is. The first chapter of my first Fire Emblem fic, which ironically is my second idea.
Sain: So when do the pirates come in? and when do we come in?
Elvengirl10:Both later. It's only chapter 1 and I only started it on Monday.
Sain: When on Monday?
Elvengirl10: French class that should give you an idea of what it was like. Yeah, neways, please, please, please Review, but no flames please. Thanks. There will be more to follow. Enjoy!!
Author's note: Just to let everyone know, I'm assuming that a: Sonia thinks she's human and b: that, judging by the way she treated Limstella in chapter 26x that she doesn't have a high opinion of morphs. If you haven't guessed, I really don't like Sonia, sorry to all Sonia fans. Also, since you don't fight Ephidel in the game I was forced to improvise and I came up with Dark Elfire. Anyone with spell suggestions for him, please tell me.
