And like that we return to this second fuzion, now with Fire Emblem, a history full of great characters, beautiful landscapes and amazing battles, now we have KP and ther est of the cast fighting with swords, casting spells and some other things; for those that know this game you will be able to imagine things, if not, then you can watch some scenes of any game in the internet, now let's go on.
Fire Emblem
Fire Heir
Earth.
This beautiful blue planet consists in many amazing places, some costal cities with rich vibrant beaches and ships sailing into the sea; there are mountain towns surrounded by the breath taking pictures of snow caped mountains and the clear blue sky.
But there are also cities in war with others, people trying to conquer others for avarice and anger, there is fighting, maybe that's just human nature, but there is also hope, braveness and justice, and will always exist.
In one continent there are five important regions in it; Upperton, a zone on the top of the continent that has been ruled by the fair hand of the Director family generation after generation, loved by their people and feared by their enemies, their royal cavalry and the infantry leaded by the queen Elizabeth Director the Fourth is a force to be reckoned with.
The second directly under it is Middleton, a region full of forests, rivers and an excellent land for harvesting, it has been a land where no war has happened in a long time, even thought it is a land of plenty no kingdom has ever done an attack on it by a none spoke agreement seemingly, whatever the reason, the royal family Possible and their daughter, the Princess Kimberly Ann are the reigning family of this beautiful land.
At the left corner of this region is a no-man's land, it is just called The Desert, not because it is one, but because the danger it represents on itself; being ruled by the Tusk Pack, ruthless barbarians roam around fighting and clashing with each other, but they well know to not venture outside their regions or Elizabeth Director will have their heads in her trophy room.
There is a small zone just at the right of Upperton, controlled by a weird woman only known as DNAmy, maybe not evil but this shaman is known to protect wild beast and bizarre creatures making this zone a wild card for any brave man trying to get into.
But the worst problem is the lowest part of the continent, where a cruel man made a coup d'etat and took control of Lowerton, but this man's ambition doesn't ends here, with the help of men like himself he is in search of taking control of every single region of the continent and take control of all the world.
Said to have a strong enough secret weapon this man set his eyes upon his neighbour region of Middleton in an attack that surprised everyone in quickness and savageness arriving fast at the doors of the castle, now, the royal family is aware that they won't be able to hold back their attackers for long.
(Inside the Middleton Castle)
A middle-aged man wearing a silver armour with the lion symbol of Middleton in the middle arrives to the war room and quickly calls for one of young knights in it, the boy, barely a teenager has blond hair and wears a red lighter version of the king's armour)
"My good and loyal boy, I wish you could have more peaceful days, but we don't have the commodity of it anymore"
"Don't worry my lord, I know things are not okay but I will fight like the best of your royal knights"
"And that's exactly why I called you here, I won't let you fight"
"What?! But… but the enemy is…"
"I know where the enemy is Ronald, I won't let you fight because I have a more important mission for you in mind; I want you to take my daughter and help her get out of the castle, you will accompany her to my brother's fortress and will search for aid to defeat Drakken's men, hopefully Elizabeth Director will hear of this and join you"
"But what will happen to you my lord?" Obviously the blonde boy was worried about the mission and what was going on, he have been in training for barely two years unlike the other men who have been training all their lives.
"My boy, don't you worry about me, we will hold back the enemy, we won't fall down to the likes of Drakken, I still have a lot of things to see to die, now go, my daughter is waiting for you" with this last words the king went out through one door and a sad Ronald quickly goes out in search of his best friend, neither saw one shadowy figure step out from his hiding place with a big grin on his face.
"Well, well, well, seems like Lord Drakken will be very happy about this news" the shadow said before going in search of his lord and give the news, he would be greatly rewarded for this information.
-----
(Now, I want you to imagine the map like if it was the videogame, alright? There is the castle in the bottom, the forest in the middle and an open road in the upper part of the map)
"I wish we could stay and help my father" a redheaded robe wearing girl said stepping out from the castle followed quickly by the blond red armoured boy as sad as her.
"I know what you mean KP but you heard the king, he has a plan, I'm sure of it, besides he is worried about you, let's go, we have a long way to go yet" they said quickly travelling to the forest until a figure in a horse steps in front of them (both Kimberly and Ronald are highlighted blue in the map, the new figure is red, if you have played Fire Emblem you should know that the enemy is the red guys)
The man grinned watching them slightly relax until five other men in horse moved in a circle around them quickly trapping them (this guys are also red)
"But… what is the meaning of this Eric?" an angry looking princess asked to the not so loyal knight in front of them, the boy meanwhile kept grinning at the outnumbered teenagers.
"What can I say my lady? We cannot take enough precautions against you, after all, my Lord is very interested in you, although he is not the only one" his grin then turned salacious looking at the young princess.
"So that's it? You betrayed my parents because I wasn't interested in you?"
"Oh no, this is simply a bonus, I have wanted to do this for a long time, is time for a change in the world my dear, now, surrender and come with us or your friend will pay the price" Eric said pointing at Ronald who had an axe right on his neck while another man had the blonde's sword.
"Don't do it KP, you are more important than me" Ronald said but one look at his friend's eyes told him what he needed, her silent nod afterwards was all before Eric hit the back of her neck and with one last push he put the unconscious princess on his saddle; while watching the six men get away from him Ronald could only scream in rage and impotence, he will get his revenge sooner or later, and he will make them pay.
-----
In another part of the Middleton region, a strange looking woman and her companion seem to be travelling light and on foot across the open roads in search of a little town in their seemingly endless travel across the continent; the woman had long luxurious ebony mass of hair that seemed to sparkle at every step she took, her body was not covered in armour like most men she have seen in her life but instead in a dress that covered her body, at each side of it there was a long division that reached her waist showing black shorts, the dress was a mixture of both black and green and seemed comfortable and left enough freedom to fight, a medium length sword in her scabbard was placed at one side of her hip in a design not from the continent; unlike the burly or rough style of soldier's swords this one was thinner and slightly shorter but it hide an amazing edge, also the weight allowed the user to do so many things, it was a deadly weapon in an expert's hand and she was clearly one.
The companion, a young looking girl with short dark hair was wearing a cream overcoat with embroider of battles around it, not even an inch of her body could be seen except a pair of worn out boots on her feet.
Both travellers seemed slightly tired and the close town seemed now a luxury they would like to have, sadly, their seemingly travel without destiny had to be cut short when they saw several horses not too far away from them and shouts.
"Stay there, don't move!" one man said before he was knocked back by a bright light.
"You wish, I only went with you to save Ron's life, I never said I wouldn't escape once we were away" the girl said with conviction on her voice that made the pale woman smirk in amusement, there weren't many girls around with that determination that was sure.
"Stop acting like this, we are more like you and you are getting tired, we were ordered to bring you back alive, they never mentioned in what conditions, maybe we can have fun once we knock you" one young man in the group said making the woman's blood boil, she hated jerks like those, her companion rolled her eyes knowing well what they were going to do and the pain those men will felt.
"You just try to touch one hair of that girl and you'll have my sword in your throat" the pale woman then took out her sword and with a quick swift one of the men was down for the count, seeing that the redhead made use of another bright attack taking down another man; seeing that he only had a conscious soldier at his side Eric quickly jumped into his horse and went like an arrow on the road to get away from both crazy women, even the promise of gold and slaves from his lord was not enough to make him go back to what he knew was a lost battle.
The woman snorted in a very un-ladylike way seeing the coward run away from her, the sword in her hand was asking for his blood and with some luck she will feed her, sooner or later their roads will join once more, she just had to be patient enough; now that that was out of the way the woman turned around to see the rescued girl just before her eyes began to close down, a second later the other girl caught her.
"How is she?" the woman said placing her sword in the scabbard, the dark haired girl quickly checked the pupils and sighed relaxing.
"She is okay Shego; she is just sleeping right now, probably tiredness mixed with stress and other thing.
"Then we'll have to get into a hotel to rest for tonight Ikea" Shego simply turned around once again in the way of the close town and started to walk like if nothing had happened.
"Hey…hey! You can't just leave me here! Shego!" Ikea exclaimed trying to hold up the redhead while trying not to fall down herself, it seemed to be a lost battle a couple of seconds later.
-----
"So, your name is Shego, right?"
"Are you mental retarded? I already said that two times pumpkin"
"Don't call me pumpkin, my name is Kimberly Ann Possible!"
"Possible? Then she is the daughter of the Possible King of Middleton"
"So?"
"Come on Shego, I can't be the only one who knows all of this!" the short haired girl said scowling at her chief.
"You are my battle advisor, that's why I have you here" the green hued woman answered back still walking, they had to get quickly to the place where their other members were, if Shego's hunch was right it was time to get some real money soon.
"Advisor?"
"That's right princess, I'm not that good fighting but I know some things about war and tactics, I'm quite useful that way to Shego, if what I heard is right your parents are still holding up against Drakken"
"Are you mercenaries by any chance?"
"You are right on that one kiddo"
"Then, would you help me get to Upperton?"
"The hell?!"
-----
"So you are a swordsman… eh, swordswoman, really effective I see" the redhead said to her companion while they fought their way out of an ambush.
"I'm the best around, not many know how to use or how to counter the power of this sword, now that we are in the topic of fighting prowess what are you capable of little princess?"
"I really wish you would stop calling me that, but if you want to know I am a light wizard"
"With how fiery you are sometimes I thought you would take a more direct approach to a problem, and I like to call you that so deal with it"
"You are impossible, and I would love to, but my parents always told me that there is no space for a sword in a princess' hands, the lest they could let me do was to learn magic spells"
"And obviously you went around your parent's backs and learned whatever you could"
"Exactly, how did you know that?"
"Because you are a redhead, too fired up to take that, besides I kind of know what you have to go through… what am I saying? Pumpkin, we are in the middle of a battle so get up and start to fight your way out 'cause I'm not going to save your cute backside every time"
"Ey! Shego! Come back here! What did you mean by that? And don't talk about my body parts like that! That woman is impossible to deal with; this is definitely God's punishment for something"
-----
"Now, that was a very good shot, nice eyes you have there girl" Shego said looking at the dark skinned girl standing in front of her.
"Believe me, you are not the first one to tell me that, you also have a good hand"
"Fighting is not the only good thing they can do"
"Would you please stop flirting? It is not a good time for now"
"Keep your breaches on Joss and open up that door, your thief skills aren't that rusty; so, what's your name girl?"
"My name is Monique, and it seems you all need some help, we all are tired of Drakken and his troops, and if you are going to defeat him you could use my help"
-----
"Shego, quite a surprise, I was expecting the young princess, but definitely not you" the one eyes woman said stepping down from her horse to see the rather bizarre group of soldiers the green skinned woman recruited by pure chance and luck; there was the dark skinned archer, a bi-colored haired thief boy, a black short shaman boy, an older brown haired man with a big chin holding an axe, a blonde girl mounting a Pegasus and a few others "what an interesting group you got"
"Don't play with me Cyclops, none of this was my idea, blame little Princess back there"
"Hey! How can you be so disrespectful to the Queen of Upperton Shego, you are quit the demon; I'm sorry Lady Director, my partner is quite difficult to deal with"
"Is no problem at all Princess, my little sister always had that sense of humour"
"I see; then you… wait a minute… SISTER?"
-----
"Oh, is you little princess"
"I should be the one who says that, how long would you have held that information from me?"
"As long I could, is not precisely something very important"
"Not important? You are the sister of the ruler of Upperton, how that cannot be important? And why are you wandering across regions in the continent? How can you be like this when you are royalty itself?"
"Jealous Princess?"
"Very"
"Don't be…you don't understand because you are the heir and your parents are still ruling Middleton, let's pray that they still are… but for me is different, my sister is Queen while I am the next in line if something happens to her; of course people would be suspicious of me, I never been popular in the court due to my tongue"
"I wonder why, but still why to turn yourself into a vagabond mercenary?"
"Because that way I won't be a problem to my sister, you have to understand that noble people are incredibly stupid, the castle is no home for me and my sister is better ruling there without me being a shadow; this is the best way I can help my sister, not being a black spot in the family, now, come on Princess, we still have to finish this battle"
"I'm sorry Shego, I have never really tried to understand you, even now you still think about your family, hope I can do something for you after all this… hey Shego! Save some soldiers for me!"
-----
"Princess, is quite funny how much we try to not be together and for some reason we are always stuck together here in the field"
"I think is due to fate"
"Don't joke with me Princess now let's go"
"Wait Shego!"
"Princess, let go of my hand"
"I'm pretty sure you know what is going on right?"
"Kimberly, I'm pretty sure what you are thinking but right now we should be thinking about going in the direction of your palace, did you hear me?"
"Of course I heard you, but if I let go of you right now I'm afraid you will vanish"
"What nonsense you are talking Pumpkin?"
"I had a nightmare… I dreamed that once we win you will go away, go back to being a vagabond… and I grew old… and I never saw you again"
"Princess"
"Why did I dream that? We don't get along, we are always bickering, never agree, you are sarcastic, you are everything I am not, then, why I can't stop thinking and dreaming about you?"
"I'm not sure this is something we should be discussing here little princess, but I promise you I won't vanish, I still have a lot to tease you about once we survive this, just hold up, those answers will come… but I can say you are not the only one asking yourself those things"
"Shego"
"Ack, this is too much feeling and mushy, I hate those things, now I need to kick those guys extra hard, are you coming with me or not?"
"With you, wherever"
"First time we agree in something"
"That is an improvement; lead the way Shego, let's win this battle and then the war!"
-----
With Drakken defeated and the Possible crown in its real place peace fills like a blanket the continent once again; people who have fought bravely to return this feeling of peace and hope go their respective ways in search of themselves; some of them in search of more battles, others to their homes and their loved ones, some stay to protect and search for their future with people who see them as beacons of hope and justice.
Ron: The young knight was promoted to Lord and people of Middleton have never been more proud of watching such a brave boy as him fight for peace and justice.
Monique: The archer went back to her village in the middle of the Forest to continue her peaceful life, her search for her real parents have given her leads but is time to rest for the time being.
Ikea: The battle tactician disappeared after the battle leaving a letter to her friends saying her intentions to travel to other continent to hone her abilities; soon this young woman will return with more stories to tell.
Joss and Tara: the thief and the Pegasus Knight went their respective ways but never cut communication, after months of constant travelling of the two they soon married; their daughter Elis is said that will have a life of adventures just like her parents.
Shego and Kimberly: A week after the banquet the royal swordswoman started her travels anew, but this time a certain redheaded princess took her side, her parents only had a knowing smile on their face; the story says that they travelled through the world freeing people and turning into legend, but they also said that their love knew no boundaries and that the powerful mage DNAmy made their wish truth, a beautiful baby girl.
-----
A/N: And we have finished another game, not that incredibly long, but that's because we are only seeing snippets of it; for the conversations between Kim and Shego, in Fire Emblem there is a peculiar thing, when two characters are side to side in the map they start to gain points, when you reach a certain number you can access a conversation between them which will open a story between them that must of the time it will be a romantic one, in total there are three conversations between characters which does a lot of things to the character grow and interaction, very cool.
Now let's go with the review answers:
roflroflrofl: I quite liked the first for the GBA for the extra char you can do, in this case it as Ikea, I quite like the Fire Emblem series for the really deep characters they have, and very good story in fact.
AshK: hey! Well, here it is the next in the series, but I think this the only one of Fire Emblem, until the next one.
AftielsSins: Well, thanks for the ideas, I'm sure I'm going to use some of that, hope you like this one.
Next Time: Ships, intergalactic battle and a planet of dinosaurs? Is time for some old school adventure game of the Cube: Star Fox Adventure.
Remember, if you want to see a certain game don't hesitate to give me a review or a message with your suggestions, I'm open to them, have a nice time.
