Had a small hiatus from making the fics to play Awakening to form ideas for this fic. I'm back and have ideas overflowing.

~Chapter 4: Twin Falchions~

Robin awakes the next morning, happy that he made friends with Lissa, and that they trust each other. After Chrom's group came back after scouting the previous day. Reflet gave her brother a new blade, it was steel forged, and we'll made. Chrom along with most of the Shepards gave there regards to Robin, happy to have him around.

The red headed tactition stood up from his bed, being the first awake, as Stahl, Vaike, and Virion where asleep. Robin went over to the Tactition room to test some tactics. Reflet, entered the same room about the minute later,saying, "Hey Robin. Working on some Tactics?"

Robin nodded, saying, "Yes, like to join?"

His sister nodded, saying, "I'd enjoy to."

The siblings then sat across from each other, each setting up their tokens on the map of a battlefield. They both had there supposed squads set and started playing, taking out coins on moves deemed uncounterable until Robin played a smart move to take Reflets Commander token, winning the game.

Reflet smiled, saying, "Good job, Robin, you've barely been able to beat me. I bet yesterday you studied?"

Robin replied, "No, I didn't. I learned of both of our family lineage on Mom's side. We are of bloodline from two hero's long ago, named Roy and Eliwood."

Reflet was suprised, saying, "Interesting. Well, you seemed to not be alone yesterday, did you?"

Robin shook his head, saying, "I was with Lissa. She came back to give me a birthday gift."

Reflet replied, "Ah, hopefully you didn't do anything to her."

Robin blushed, saying, "Hey, I wouldn't!"

Reflet smiled, replying, "Ha, I knew you wouldn't. Your such a kind heartead brother. I would be dead from shock if you did, dummy."

Robin smiled, then hugged his sister, saying, "Thank you."

Reflet smiled and patted her brothers head. She then stood up and countinued conversation about tactics and strategy with Robin.

After a few hours, the rest of the Shepards where up, and where collected outside as Chrom gave orders he received from the council. Chrom then spoke, "Alright, currently, we are mobilizing war against Plegia, they already pronounced war by sending Brigands, as you all know. So I am going to take a small group of Shepards with me to Regna Ferox, to gain allies and aid for this war."

Robin then asked, "Regna Ferox?"

Chrom replied, "Its a large continent north of Ylisse and Plegia. They call it the Warrior Realm, because everyone from there are Warriors."

Robin nodded then let Chrom countinues what he was saying.

Chrom countinued, "This mission is voluntary, you aren't forced to go if you don't want to come."

Robin said, "I'll go."

Reflet nodded with her brother, also coming with.

Sumia said, "Ill go, Captain Chr-," she said until she tripped on thin air, then stood up, dusting herself off.

Vaike, Stahl, and Sully nodded with, ready to go with. Lissa agreed and stood by Robin, saying, "I have to make sure you don't break anything, Chrom."

Chrom replied, "Noted, Lissa. Everyone else, I'd ask if you would stay here. So the Exalt has a guard for her if need be."

A young looking boy then ran over, saying, "Hey, Ill come."

Chrom replied, "Not you, Ricken. It's not needed for you to come."

Ricken replied, "But-"

Chrom replied, "I said no Ricken. You need to stay here."

Ricken sighed, walking away, sad. Reflet, had some feeling that she should have intervened, atleast to cheer Ricken up, he was gone already, so it was to late.

Chrom then said, "Let us get going, Shepards."

Chrom then lead his voluntary force composing of Chrom, Robin, Reflet, Sumia, Lissa, Vaike, Stahl, and Sully. The other Shepards stayed behind in Ylisse.

After a day, the Shepards that volunteered reached the Feroxi Border. The border patrol then instantly let the Shepards in, as if they where expected.

Chrom then told the group, "The Counsel sent a messenger yesterday to deliver the message to the Feroxi, to not have any confusion."

Upon entering, a tall, tan, which was weird cause Feroxi is cold all year, blonde hair, and writing red armor, with a menacing stellar sword sheathed to her side. She then said, "Prince Chrom?"

Chrom replied, "Yes, ma'a-"

The woman replied, "No need for formalities. I am the East Khan of Regna Ferox. Name is Flavia."

Chrom nodded, then stated the reasons for Feroxi and Ylissean alliance against Plegia. Flavia listened to it all, then replied, "As much as I could grant this, I cannot. I lack authority."

Chrom then asked, "That explains why you called yourself the East Khan. So there is no way to call this alliance?"

Flag is answered, "If you give up easily, then yes. Thet tournament that decides the prime Khan is, luckily for you, tomorrow. That means, if you win the tournament for me, Ill grant the alliance."

Chrom replied, "We shall. Ylisse nears Feroxi support to win this war."

Flavia said, laughing first, "You are going to be someone I like."

The Shepards where explained the rules, and how only 6 people for each side are allowed. Chrom then picked 5 others, Robin, Reflet, Sumia, Vaike, and Sully. The next day they headed to this decently large arena, and suited up with Iron Weaponry, except Reflet, who used her Elfire Tome, and Robin who wielded both a Elthunder Tome, and an Iron Sword.

The 6 Shepard got onto the Arena and almost straight across from Chrom stood Marth, the one who saved Chrom and Lissa.

Chrom pulled out Falchion as she pulled out a Parallel one which shocked Chrom, and he asked, "How did you get that?!

Marth stood silent then prepared his Falchion.

Chrom then took his question aside and prepared his going in to attack Marth.

Marth blocked exactly how anyone would to Chrom's attack and replied as Chrom blocked it the same way.

Chrom and Marth exchanged hits to each other's Falchion. Chrom then asked after they took distance to each other, "Who taught you how to battle?"

Marth then threw her Falchion upwards then came down, replying, "My Father!"

Chrom rolled out of they way then looked over to see Robin leading the forces to deal with Marths allies, which seemed easy.

Chrom countinued to parry blades with Marth, the battle seeming even.
