Chapter one: To Begnion first day
Edward woke up when the sun started to flow in by the window. He opened his eyes and looked at the other bed to see that Mia had already woke up. He went downstairs and saw Mia sitting on a chair sharpening her sword. She raised her head and looked at Edward before smiling at him. Then, she returned to her sharpening. Edward went in the direction of the kitchen and asked her: "What do you want to eat?"
"I would like some eggs, with some toast and maybe bacon." answered Mia with a smile. Edward went at his counter and started to look for some ingredient. While, he was searching he asked Mia: "Do you have an idea where you are going to go next?"
"I'm going to go to Begnion. After that I don't know, I'll see when I'll be there." said Mia while she got up. Edward started to cook the food. While the eggs were in the pan, he turned around and said: "Would you mind having someone to travel with?"
"I don't think I would mind having someone tagging along, why? Do you want to come?" said Mia with a smile. Edward turned the egg in the pan then in turned around to say: "Yes, I would really like to travel with you. I would like to see what the world looks like when he is in peace. I would also do something with my life."
"Then, it's settled you're coming with me. It will be great, travelling together just like we did during our war against Ashera, but this time it will be the two of us and there won't be people turned to stone." announced Mia while she was seating at the table. Edward brought the food and they started to eat. Since, they were both hungry the food was eaten in a short amount of time. Edward got up and cleaned the table. After that, he walked to the door and said: "I'm going to check some stuff with Micaiah. During that time, you can pack and get ready to leave." before leaving the house in the direction of the castle.
He was running has fast has he could through the streets while they were starting to get more and more crowded. After, some time he finally reached the castle entrance. The guard let him in and he made his way to the throne room. When he entered the room, he found Micaiah sitting on her throne with Sothe standing by her side. He made a small and quick bow before giving the reason of his early visit: "Micaiah, I'm here to announce my departure for the city of Nevassa."
"Why is that Edward? Also, you don't need to use such manners with me." said Micaiah with a smile. Edward smiled and continued his speech about his motives: "I'm going to travel the world with Mia. I came here just to say good bye and all. By the way, if you need to use my house for anything feels free to use it."
"In that case, I hope you will enjoy your trip and remember that you are always welcome to come and stay here." replied Micaiah. After that, Edward leaved the room in direction of his house. He made his way through the crowded street and reached his house. He entered his house for the last before a long time. He saw Mia sitting on a chair with a bag at her feet. She raised the head and saw that it was Edward that entered the house. She took the bag and said: "So, are we ready to go?" Edward walked to get Caladbolg and while he sheathed the sword he said: "Yes, we are. I took care of what I had to do."
Mia jumped from her seat and started to run to the exit. She yelled to Edward: "Come on Edward, first one to get to the main gate of the city." Hearing that, Edward started to run behind her. It wasn't long before Mia reached the gate, Edward arrived shortly after her. He smiled slightly at Mia. "Losers carry the stuff." joyfully said Mia before throwing the bag to Edward. Edward smiled and strapped the bag to his back. Then he started to walk with Mia in direction of Begnion.
Mia and Edward had been walking for several hours and it's was almost noon. They were now walking in the middle of a luxuriant forest. The sun going through the leaves and the small brook that was following the path were a beautiful show. While they were enjoying the calm of the forest they heard footstep behind them. Edward slowly turned around to look and saw no one. He unsheathed his sword knowing that he would be fighting soon enough. Mia heard him and unsheathed her sword too. They were back-to-back waiting for the unseen enemy to attack.
They didn't wait long before the first assailant attacked coming out of the woods next to the path. He charged Edward with his axe raised over his head. Edward simply walked sideway to dodge the attack and swung his sword. He reached the man vital organs killing him on the spot. The body hadn't felt on the floor that two bandits came out of the woods behind him and attacked Mia. She blocked the first blow with her sword and she kicked the other one before he had the time to attack her. She took the wrist of the man who was still on his two feet and twisted it to make him drop his weapon. After that, she pierced the man with her sword. During that time Edward was cornered by three bandits. He ran to the closer bandit and slashed him across the chest before crouching to evade and axe that was directed to his head. He with his leg his swept the feet of another bandit. The man felt on his back. Edward knocked him out by kicking him in the head while evading another axe. They were now two against two. The two bandits looked at each other before running away in fear.
Edward putted his sword away before asking to Mia: "What should we do with this guy." talking about the bandit he had knocked out. He waited a bit for her answer before she said: "It wouldn't be nice to leave him alone and unconscious in the wood. We could take a break here to eat until he wakes up."
"We can do that. I'm hungry and I don't think he deserves to be left like that." Said Edward has he sat on the ground. He took out some food and sat on the ground. Mia sat too and grabbed the food that Edward threw to her. They sat in silence before Edward said: "How did you met Ike and the Greil's mercenaries? "
"It happened during the mad king war. I was a mercenary hired by Crimea. I was captured by the Daein army during one of the battle I made. It was the Greil's mercenaries that saved me. After that, I stayed with them to repay my debt. I didn't leave after because I loved Ike swordsmanship. You, how did you joined the dawn brigade?"
"I never joined the dawn brigade since I was one of the people to create it. It started after the mad king war, when Begnion was doing what they wanted I found myself in the obligation to run from one place to another. It was during that time that I knew Leonardo. I saved him from the occupation army and we traveled together. After that, we met the others and formed the dawn brigade." Answered Edward, he got up and went to look on the unconscious brigand.
A.N. : I'm really sorry for the time it took to update, I didn't had much time between study and work for my fic. If you have any character you want to see in the story just P.M me or put it in a review.
