A/N: Fire Emblem Heroes is actually pretty dark if you analyze it... Pointing out any mistakes is appreciated!
Axe Fighter II threw up as Bow Fighter checked the body.
It had been a clean cut, at least Axe Fighter had died a quick death.
"I'll kill her, I swear to god i'll kill her!" Axe Fighter II roared, he was crying but why wouldn't he? Axe Fighter had been the older brother he'd idolized. Bow Fighter might have felt the same, had he been in Axe Fighter II's shoes.
"Do not worry friend, we'll avenge Axe Fighter and get our money back from that vixen yet." This, Bow Fighter vowed! Glancing around the clearing, Bow fighter noticed disturbed shrubbery in the distance. "Come, they couldn't have gone far!" Bow Fighter ordered, and the duo began their pursuit.
Fire Emblem Heroes!
Book 1/Preface: Part 2
The Legend
"First things first." Anna began as the duo walked through some old ruins "I summoned you here with the divine relic Breidablik. That's the name of this relic I've brought by the way." Anna said as she held up the relic "According to legend it fires something out of it, but Breidablik doesn't look like any bow I've ever seen."
"Looks more like a gun."
"A gun? What's that?"
"Basically a bow"
"I see." Anna frowned at the unhelpful answer. "Anyway, the legend also calls it "the true key," which, if raised high, will summon the Great Hero who can fire it."
"Neat. Not sure what good a gun will do against axe's though" Colon replied sarcastically, but it seemed like Anna didn't pick up on it.
"Hopefully you can figure out how to—"
"I FOUND HER AXE FIGHTER II!" Bow Fighter announced as he blocked their path.
"Drat! More of those Emblian soldiers!" Anna panicked as Colon looked around and noticed a guy identical to the Axe wielding soldier from before running up behind them. He looked mad...
"Colon! You run while I hold them off. Take Breidablik and get out of here!"
"Wait, but where am I supposed to go!?" He asked as he caught the gun Anna tossed his way before she pulled out Nóatún. Suddenly Breidablik began to glow.
"What's that?! That bright light, it's coming from..." but Colon didn't wait for her to finish. This was a gun, and therefore, it shot bullets.
Colon fired, but instead of a bullet the weapon shot out a person. She crashed into the Bow Fighter with a sickening thud. It seemed like she'd accidentally broken his neck.
"BOW FIGHTER, NO!" Axe Fighter II cried "You bastards, i'll kill you for this!"
The mysterious new person stood up and ignored the now dead archer before turning to and addressing Colon "I am Lucina, daughter of the Exalt Chrom of the Halidom of Ylisse. I come wielding a legendary bow."
"I thought you used a sword..." Colon asked, but he was ignored.
"How'd you do that? You summoned a Hero! You just picked up Breidablik, and you're already able to use it! Thi- Tha- That's bullshit!"
Everyone gave her a confused look, even the crazy mad Axe guy.
"Right, not the time. This Lucina and I need to get to fighting!" Anna announced, backing away from Axe Fighter II and turning to Lucina "When using a bow, you must keep space between you and your foe."
"I know how to use a bow." Lucina answered, and to prove it she shot the Axe wielder in the knee. He started to scream. "See, I don't need a tutorial from an Anna."
Anna let out a scandalized gasp "What's that supposed to mean!?"
"You're sister sold my Falchion! I'll never forgive her for that!"
"How's that my fault!?"
"She killed my brother and robbed us blind!" Axe Fighter II cried out, Lucina shot him in his other knee, and he let out a wail.
"You look the same, so my hatred falls on you by default."
"That's stupid!" Anna replied
"You're stupid!" Lucina shot back, and for good measure she shot the Axe Fighter again. This time the arrow tore off a good chunk of his neck. He could no longer scream.
"No, you-!" Anna began but Colon had, had enough.
"For god sakes, put the poor man out of his misery!" he demanded and the two stopped bickering long enough to notice Axe Fighter II slowly bleeding to death on the ground.
Anna did the responsible thing and beheaded him to end his suffering.
"Jesus..."
Turning to Colon, Anna began "Well, we won, and it's all thanks to you!"
"But I didn't do anything" Colon replied, rather pale and terrified over what he'd just witnessed.
"Nonsense," Anna glanced over at Lucina who had turned her back on her "None of us at the Order of Heroes can actually summon Heroes, so you're truly a sight for sore eyes!"
Anna's face broke into a grin "I never doubted you for a second!"
"Hold on. Are you really our Great Hero? You don't look like the thee-and-thou type." Colon remembered, what a liar.
"Now that you're here, I just know that we'll win our fight against the empire! Yep, you're the one who will save our kingdom! Our order may be small, Colon, but welcome to our ranks!"
"I already said i'd join, no need to brown nose me."
"I feel I don't understand the slang you're using."
Colon sighed "Never mind, lets just... Go..." and off they went, leaving the bodies of their enemies behind to become one with nature.
Anna explains that she used the divine relic Breidablik, a weapon of legend, which if raised high will summon the Great Hero who can fire it. When they are attacked again by Emblian soldiers, Anna hands Breidablik to the Summoner. A bright light emits from it and summons the bow-wielding Hero Virion. With the archer's help they defeat the enemy soldiers. Anna, now certain that the Summoner is the Great Hero, asks them to join the Order of Heroes and help them in their fight against the Empire, to which the Summoner agrees.
