Chapter one: Community Service

It was a normal day in the kingdom of Ylisse-

Author: Nah to boring do something else.

It was a dark and stormy night-

Author: HECK NO! Screw it go back to the original.

It was a normal day in the kingdom of Yilsse, yet the air of the day seemed to seep of relaxation. Many of the Shepherds decided to gather around the grand halls of the kingdom and simply hang out.

However, someone wasn't there with them enjoying time with his friends and family. Here he is seen in a library, not just any library mind you, but Yilsse's Grand Library! One could almost see frustration, impatience, and annoyance in his face, traits that do not fit a master tactician, though here lies poor Robin pulling his hair as he tries to organize and catalog every historical article and book the wondrous *coughstadiumsizedcough* library had to offer.

"…Augggggh! I can't believe this! I'm not even half-way in the first checklist! How many blasted books do I have to go thorough!? –inhales- Alright calm down just continue on this work and maybe I'll have time to hang out with everyone else. Robin can do this." Robin expressed.

"Ha! I haven't seen you this battered since the others tried to take away the roster from you"

Robin turned to see his best friend and king of Yilsse, Chrom smiling and holding an odd book.

"Chrom? When did you get here?" Robin became more relaxed after seizing this conversation as a break from potential mental collapse.

"Actually I came here a little earlier but it took me around seven minutes to get here and find you even with the directions of Gerald. (the librarian)"

"Ah I see so you just found me?"

"Well to be honest I found you a little earlier but I was cut off by the sound of an enraged tactician and the best 3rd person motivation speech I heard today."

"…"

"Ha ha! I'm sorry Robin, but I never really get the chance to one up you in a witty comeback"

"Well why are you here? Are you just here to rub it in my face and make me regret dumping some of my paper work on you last week?"

"Actu- Wait that was you who had all the paper work on fruit trade dumped on me?!"

"…No"

"-sigh- The real reason why we're here is that we couldn't really have fun without our good friend."

"Wait…we're?" Robin looked around him; in his view he glanced around Kellam's area but didn't seem to spot him. "I don't see anyone. (Hey Robin? Uh Captain?)"

Chrom also hasn't realized that poor Kellam was right behind him and simply answered Robin "We all came in here to get you, but then when we got in we remembered how big the library actually is and asked Gerald where you were. I could have sworn they were following me. (I followed you sir.) Guess they all got lost including me. I was just wandering around after the 4th tragedy-romance column and found you here."

"Wait Romance? Tragedy? I thought I was in the History Columns."

"You know now that I think of it. I was passing that romance section yet i found my self in Selenology files columns, Animal skinning topics, and other random topics as I came here."

"Woah-woah hold on there for a minute, when Gerald showed me in here we had to go through a few Children Books sections, and a Horror Folklore Archives to get here."

"Isn't there more than one way to get to this area of the library?"

"What directions did he give you to get to me?"

"..." Chrom pondered a bit, realizing and connecting recent events with what Robin said earlier " It- it was confusing but I know he didn't mention anything about Kids books or Horror stories..(I heard something about bear dissection and biology.) but he seemed to know exactly what he was talking about."

"You know before coming here I heard rumors that when some people volunteer here they mysteriously vanish for weeks only later to be found by Gerald, near at the verge of mental insanity and an almost ludicrous fear of libraries. They kept muttering maze, maze, get me out of here!"

"Ar-are you saying that we might be lost and trapped in a maze!?"

"Only one way to find out!" Robin runs of in a random direction from his table desk as Chrom (and Kellam) stare at the direction he left only to hear gasping and wheezes from Robin as he came from a different side of the area. "-gasping looks up and sees Chrom and finally notices Kellam- Kellam when did you get here?"

"Huh? Kellam where did you come from?"

"I've been following you the whole time sir."

"What really?"

After a moment in Kellam explaining how long he was actually there the trio had realized and accepted one thing: They were lost.

"At least Gerald knows where we are he might get us out of this though who knows how long before he decides to check up on me."

"Oh sir I have been meaning to ask where did you get that book? I haven't seen you actually pick up one on our way here."

"What weren't you there when Gerald told me to hand this book to Robin when I see him?"

"No sir I remember Gerald only telling us the confusing directions on how to get to Robin."

"Chrom, let me see the book." Chrom hands the White leathered belt strapped book to Robin Who carefully inspected it: A clean, thick, yet strangely light book with an odd symbol in the front a simple circle with a cross on it, the middle of the cross being in the lower left of the circle, and it was brightly colored like a rainbow.

Before Robin could open the mysterious book the trio heard a loud tumble right behind Kellam.

Well that's it the end of my first chapter kinda cheesy to end in a cliffhanger but its all part of my Evil plan to rule da world! (step -8 of 523 complete)

So that is it for now I'll see if i can post as quick as once a week though I still am new to this so I'll see how this works out.

Post note: Done re-editing for now might add more a little later.

Even though there is some heavy hints to a ssb and fire emblem cross over im not putting it under there, my reason for this is that I wont be going into detail of the characters in awakening leaving people, who if read from the ssb wouldn't understand it yet.

Though ill think a bout it a little more later.

Well thank you, please comment and review.
