Me: Request from Silverwing123, who's a guest. No idea what to call this pairing, really. Anyways, I don't own Cardfight Vanguard or Cray's Heroes would be the next season after Link Joker.

Astral: I don't have anything to say other than she's procrastinating. This takes place after Season 1, but before Season 2.

"And you called me here because?"

"Just for a little walk." The black-armored knight replied. Darkness Maiden, Macha raised an eyebrow at his strange behaviour, but ignored it.

"Not much to see on a walk." She replied, looking around. The Shadow Paladin land was barren and jagged. Rocky battlegrounds, with a few tents set up around a castle as their base was all they lived off of. "Battlefields, rocks, air, what else?"

"Something to clear my mind." Blaster Dark replied and began walking. Yup, the knight was really acting strange. Nothing else to do than to follow him though, so she walked beside him.

A cloudy grey sky, uneven rocky plains, nothing but cliffs around their territory for miles and miles, this walk was just so interesting!

"I lost." She heard him say, looking at him in confusion.

"What?"

"I lost to Blaster Blade." Blaster Dark said quietly. It didn't sound angry. Just sad, and regretful? "He was always better when we were kids, but I didn't expect there to still be a difference in our strengths like that."

"Don't be silly. Despite having lost, you have been able to get stronger as well." Macha said. Her superior was moping. This was not supposed to happen. And she would not let it. "When Phantom Blaster Overlord went out of control, do you remember how we defeated it? You and Blaster Blade combined forces, and only at that moment were we able to win."

"And I supposed you're saying I'm not strong by myself, that I have to have Blaster Blade to be able to accomplish anything." He said ruefully.

"I'm that you are being ridiculous." Macha snapped. "You are the commander of the Shadow Paladins. How do you expect to be able to accomplish anything if you keep on holding onto what happened before and seeing the negative in it. The world will move on, and you will have to too. And when the time comes to battle I hope you aren't still in such a bad mood as you are now or we might as well just surrender to Void without a fight because our leader apparently can't do anything without a measly sword!"

They stood there, staring at each other, with Macha breathing heavily from the speech. Blaster Dark seemed slightly taken aback by those words, and with the blue-haired maiden glaring at him.

"You were always the one to keep your head in a crisis." Blaster Dark finally said.

"You won't get anywhere avoiding the subject." Macha replied. "I've finished what I needed to say. If you can't follow those words, you know what happens to the weak within us."

Then she began storming away. This was stupid. How stupid was he! Her commander moping around, that was just so stupid! This wasn't going to help them against Void or strengthen their forces, with him all sad and hung up about it. He really needed to get over it!

"Wait!" Blaster Dark yelled from behind her, but she didn't stop. Why should she? Was it going to benefit either of them if she stopped? Blaster Dark ran behind her, nearly catching up to her before he tripped.

Macha turned around just in time for the knight to grab onto her shoulder and regain his balance, only to make her lose hers. He caught her hand, leaning over to to stop her from falling over, and they stared at each other.

"If you're that clumsy it's no wonder you lost." Macha said, her face heating up slightly by how close they were. Here she was, the cool-headed commander of forces in the Shadow Paladins, actually blushing! Oh it was a good thing nobody was around to see this. Why wasn't Blaster Dark letting her go?

"You always were right when it came to battle strategies." Blaster Dark said.

"This is a battle strategy?"

"It could be, depending on its purpose."

Macha wrapped her free hand around his back so she had some leverage. "Then this is more than just a battle strategy."

"I don't see why you had to make me come with you." Akane whispered to Blaster Blade, the two of them lying on a cliff, using binoculars to watch the two Shadow Paladin units.

"Blaster Dark was acting strange at the last clan meeting, and it probably had to do with the fact that I won against him. I have to make sure he's doing alright." Blaster Blade whispered back. "Besides, just in case, plus you said it would be fun."

They watched the duo talk through the binoculars, and Akane's face turned almost as red as her hair did when she watched the two fall on each other, glancing at the white knight beside her before looking back at the scene. Her faced turned even redder as she watched what they did next.

"Well, it looks like he's doing better. We can go now." Blaster Blade stood up, and began walking away quickly. The high-dog breeder wasn't sure whether it was from his brother being better, or the fact that he just made out with a girl. For quite a long time.

"Oh, so you're getting uncomfortable? The great Blaster Blade, nervous about a little make out session?" Akane teased. Blaster Blade turned around to face her to protest, although his face being red didn't help. He turned away again.

"Let's just go. It's about time he got a girlfriend."

"Before you, apparently."

"Let's go!"

Me: Welp, here you go. I got it done. Man these romances make me uncomfortable, but I still enjoy them so much! Review and bye!
