Hope Will Never Die

by Emerald Quill151

A man with no place left in the world and a Women disowned by the pendulum of time she changed, sounds like the perfect match. This is a small collection of Short stories I wrote The day after I finished playing Awakening. They are in no particular order and eventually will become a full story.

3. Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Lucina winced as she got up, using Falchion as support. She had just been knocked back by Grima.

'Almost over…' she thought running up the fell dragon 'then I can…' Lucina suddenly stopped fear spread across her face as she watched Robin stand across from Grima. 'No…' she thought

"Robin I'm going to land the final blow!" she heard Chrom yell as he ran towards the standoff. 'Please oh gods please!' she thought, then everything slowed down as soon as Robin began to charge Grima.

"No!" she screamed seeing Chrom now also charging Grima. She was closer, she could make it if she could just grab Robin her father could finish the job!

Then she stopped mid-way, watching as her husband stabbed Grima through the chest.

"NO!" she was now sprinting towards him, tears forming; she couldn't let this happen after everything else, Emmeryn, the war with Valm and with Pelgia, all she had gone through to change the future. She let herself become attached and the price she now had to pay for changing time was to lose Robin.

"Lucina-"

"Don't say it, Damn it! Don't say it…" she said trembling as she clutched falchion in fear.

"Lucina you're the bravest person I've ever met, you're the strongest woman I know, please always remember I'll always love you…" Robin said smiling. Lucina instantly ran to Robin locking lips with him as she felt him fade away.

"I love you Robin" she whispered just as he faded into nothingness. She fell to her knees, Sol dropping into her hands its owner now gone. She looked at the blade… Robin's blade… she wanted to scream cry out in pain, she didn't want to be teleported to safety. She wanted to stay atop the dying fell dragon and crash down with it, but she didn't because Robin wouldn't want that. So she sat there on her knees holding Sol as she was teleported to a field overlooking the now dead dragon.

She stood up breathing in as she sheathed Sol next to Falchion.

"I will search for Robin, if it takes me to the end of my days" Chrom stated.

Hope filled Lucina upon hearing her father's words. They'd find him… she would find him.
