AN: Hey, I'm back! anyway, I've had the idea for this story stuck in my head for a couple of days ever since I started playing Fire Emblem Fates. So, I hope whoever's reading this enjoys it!
I had no idea what to do. Should I side with his Nohr or Hoshido? Yeah, I had known my adoptive family for longer, but I didn't want to let down my birth family or the two Hoshidans I spared. As I looked from family to family desperately, I slowly realized they wouldn't accept my response of 'I don't know'. So, I went with option C. I unsheathed my sword, looked from family to family one last time, and quickly rammed the sacred blade into my stomach. As my vision started to fade to black, the last things I saw were faces from bath family's hovering over me with distinct looks of shock and worry.
When I next awoke, the first thing I noticed was how comfortable I was in bed. The second thing I noticed was that I wasn't in the bed I usually slept in. In fact, this wasn't my room. It had a window with a view of a pond. As I was trying to get up, however, I was suddenly struck with a sharp pain in my stomach. And then I remembered.
As I was busy looking out of the window from the warmth of my bed, I heard a cough. I turned my head to try to figure out where the noise came from. In the room were Ryoma and Hinoka. I couldn't tell what either of them were thinking or feeling. A tense silence filled the room until Ryoma decided to leave, but not before shooting a concerned look in my direction. And then only Hinoka and I were left. I just kept staring out the window.
"Why?" asked Hinoka.
"Why what?"
"Why did you try to kill yourself?" I shrugged, ashamed of my choice. Hinoka sighed. "Well, if you want to talk about anything, alright?" Hinoka assured, smiling in my direction. She then left the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts.
