After about an hour or so Corrin was making her way to the war room as that was probably the place where Robin would be at.
Upon getting to the door she stopped for a moment.
"Okay you can fight against three separate army and manage to convince most of two of them to fight with you. Compared to that how hard can a simple 'I love you' be." She said to herself in a quiet tone.
She then pushed open the door and as she predicted Robin was standing over the table looking down at his maps...with his hood down.
"Oh gods this is going to be harder than I thought." She thought to herself walking in. "Hay Grima." She said and Robin turn to her.
"Ah Corrin, you what something?" Robin asked with a tad bit of shakiness in the tone.
"Um well...um." Corrin said. "This is worse!" She thought to herself. "Um wh-what's our next move." She said and cursing herself.
"Oh." Robin said. "Well tomorrow were heeding to the Bottomless Canyon and hopefully meet the rest of your siblings and if not well I have a plan if they don't show." He said.
"Damn I'm to much of a cowered." Robin though to himself and pulling his hood up.
"Oh, we-well I'll leave you to your work." She said and well ran out and to her private quarters.
...
The next morning in Hoshido Yukimura was doing his best to repeal a Nohrian invasion force.
"No Nohrian attack can brake through my defenses!" Yukimura yelled firing his Yumi at a Dark Mage and killing them.
"Yukimura I've returned!" A familiar voice yelled.
As soon as the voice yelled out Ryoma and Scarlet appeared out from the road and killing the two commanders of the Nohrian forces as quick as thy could.
"Lord Ryoma!" Yukimura yelled out in happiness.
"Two down… Up for more Scarlet?" Ryoma asked the Wyvern Lord
"Oh you bet I am!" She yelled and the two entered the fray once more.
After dispatching of the invaders Ryoma was in deep thought.
"Lord Ryoma, I am so glad to see that you have returned unharmed." Yukimura said with a large smile.
"It's good to be back." Ryoma replied. "I'm sorry that you had to care for everything for so long."
"Hay there, those glasses of yours are pretty sharp!" Scarlet looking at Yukimura's glasses. "Can you point me to where I can get a pair?"
"Uh Lord Ryoma who is this?" Yukimura asked.
"Oh I forgot to introduce her. This is Scarlet, she was part of a resistance group in Nohr." Ryoma told the strategic. "We became friends in Chives and we've been working together scenes then."
"Glad to meet you Yuki and don't worry I've brought some of my men with me to help you out." Scarlet said.
"Thank you and the pleasure is all mine." Yukimura said.
"By the way Yukimura I ran into Corrin in Nestra." Ryoma said
"So she made it all the way there." Yukimura said rubbing his chin. "Does she still have that tactician with her?"
"Indeed, actually he asked me to join them to put an end to the fighting." Ryoma told the strategist.
"They said the same thing to me when we met at Fort Jinya." Yukimura said with a slight frown remembering his defeat against the tactician. "She said that if I wanted to help her that I should meet her at the Bottomless Canyon when the skies of Nohr and Hoshido change color. There she claims that she will be able to share something."
"The tactician has told me something similar in that regard. And for some reason I don't think that it is a lie." Ryoma said remember what Robin had told him. "And there is something about them that attracts followers."
"Ryoma." Scarlet said.
"And you want to know something sad I was jealous of her when I was younger and blamed myself heavily for her kidnapping." Ryoma said turning towards the road. "If I had been stronger maybe I could have stopped them."
"You must not feel that way for it was out of your control!" Yukimura yelled. "You were young then and even if you were as strong as you are now I don't believe that you could!"
"I know Yukimura. But I still believe that I need to come to terms with these feelings." He said before taking a couple of steps. "Which is why I'm going to head to the Canyon and fight with her! For it is the only way I can feel I can make up for failing to protect her!"
"Well then Lobster Boy how would you like some help!" Scarlet said. "Because even if you say no I'm coming anyway."
"Thank you Scarlet." Ryoma and cursing himself for not having a playful insult to fire at the rider.
The two where about to leave when they herd the wings of a pegusses.
"Hello Ryoma." A familiar voice said.
"Hinoka I see that you did an excellent job protecting the castle." Ryoma said turning to his younger sister. "I'm sorry to do this to you and I know I just arrived, but I must leave again."
"Yah I know that your heading to the Bottomless Canyon and I'm here to inform you brother that Me and my retainers are coming with you." She said.
"What?"
"You do remember that the reason I picked up the Naginata is so that I could save her right?" She said in a matter of fact tone.
"Of course but…" Ryoma was about to say
"But nothing. I can't describe how much I regretted not being able to protect her and now I can. And on the day that she chose not to side with either kingdom I felt betrayed." She explained to her brother. "But I've had time to think and now I know for sure that I'm going to do everything in my power to help her."
Ryoma was then quite for a moment. "Somehow I'm not surprised that stubbornness runs in this family." He said and then turned to Yukimura. "Sorry Yuki. Looks like you'll be defending the castle on your own."
"Don't worry you all are causing me the same amount of trouble you always do." He said teasingly. "I'll keep it here when you return."
"Thanks Yuki!" Hinoka said
"I have just one request, You aren't allowed to complain if the castle isn't in the same condition." He said
"Of c-course." She said.
"Also i lied about just the one request, just come home safe." Yukimura said.
"No promises." Both of the kids said.
"Anyway you have my thanks." Ryoma said.
"Then I wish you good hunting.." Yukimura said and with that the three where off.
...
After some marching the army had made it to the lava fields near the Canyon.
"Aw... There's no one else here." Elise said looking around.
"Seems like neither Ryoma or Xander were swayed to join us." Takumi said.
"Let's not give up yet." Camilla said trying to reassure the two. "The skies above us haven't completely changed, and if I know Xander he'll take awhile."
"Agreed there is still some time left but not much." Azura said looking up.
"Don't worry if there is a will there a way." Robin said pulling out his map. "If we..." Before he could finish the group heard a large amount of footsteps.
As the group got reedy they saw the Nohrian army being led by Hans.
"Damn it! Instead of getting Xander's cooperation we get an assault!" Takumi yelled.
"I can't believe he would do this!" Camilla yelled.
"If this is Xander's answer then I suggest that we prepare for battle!" Robin yelled out.
"Fallow me you scum! We'll hurl the Hoshidans and the tractors into the canyon!" Hand yelled as the Nohrian forces changed at them.
After Takumi and Camilla quickly took out a few of them the army heard a familiar voice.
"Don't you dare lay a finger on my sister!" And a lightning bolt came from the sky killing a small group of soldiers.
"What!" Corrin yelled
"It appears as if the Calvary has arrived." Robin said. "I'm glad that you took up on that offer Ryoma."
"Sorry to keep you waiting Corrin." Ryoma said walking up to his sister with Hinoka in tow
"Don't worry we're here to fight by your side!" Hinoka said.
"This should be a fantastic battle!" Scarlet yelled
"You all came!" Corrin yelled out with a smile.
"Why wouldn't they there your family." Robin said with a reassuring tone.
"Victory is all but assured now." Takumi said with hubris.
"I'm glad that you all decided to believe in us and Corrin." Azura said and can't help but smile.
"Alright even though you all are happy to see each other we have to deal with a blood thirsty fool." Robin said.
"Grima right we must first deal with Hans." Corrin said.
"Right and I brought my retainer Azana and Ses I hope that they can help you." Hinoka said pointing over to a prest and an archer
"Thank you all!" Corrin yelled and Robin then told them the plan.
"Alright as always me and Corrin will try to deal with Hans, Ryoma you and Camilla will lead our ground forces, While Takumi, Azura and Hinoka will deal with the range, Elise and Sakura your in charge of support." Robin said.
"Alright tactician I will do everything in my power to assist you and my sister!" Ryoma said and him and Camilla began to lead their forces.
"Alright let's show them what we can do sister!" Takumi yelled and began fighting with the opposing archers and mages.
"Still as hot headed I see." Hinoka said and jumped into the fray.
"What am I going to do with those two." Azura said and began fallowing her brother and sister.
"Be careful!" Sakura yelled as she saw her family run out.
"Yah kick their butts!" Elise cheered.
...
After cutting through what seemed like a legion of me and fire Corrin and Robin finally made it to Hans who was waiting for them his axe ready to kill.
"So it looks like the Princess and he tactician has decided to come after me them selves." He said with a twisted smile.
"Hans I'm only going to give you one chance to surrender." Corrin said pointing the Yato at the Berserker.
Hans then let loose a mad cackle and charged at Corrin his axe somehow clashing with her.
"Corrin!" Robin yelled out and about to assist… until he saw that instead of continuing the clash she loosened up a bit and leans back causing the top heavy berserker to propel forward and tripping up.
She then slashed at his legs forcing him to his knees and driving the blade through his chest.
She then turned to Robin with a smile. "Only engage your opponent until you find his weakness then exploit it. That was lesson one."
"It seems like I've have thought you well." Robin said with a small blush.
...
As soon as the battle was over the army then made their way to the canyon.
"Don't relax just yet. We're not out of the woods yet." Robin said to the troops.
"He's right we must keep going." Azura said. "Look over there."
The army then looked over to where Azura was pointing and saw an even larger force maned by Iago.
"Damn we can't catch a break!" Takumi yelled.
"It seems that way." Robin said.
"So you all made it past the fool? That's a shame. He was a fine pawn." Iago said.
"Is that all you think lives are you bastard!" Robin yelled.
"So this is the tactician that King Garon wants alive." Iago said.
"Well then l hate to disappoint!" Robin yelled with his sword and tome both out.
"Hold on Grima I know that you're angry but try to keep a cool head." Corrin said and managed to calm down the tactician.
"Your right Corrin thanks for that. Comparing people to pawns is just one of my triggers." Robin said with edge still in his tone.
Corrin then looked out to the felid and noticed that they where seriously out numbered.
"Grima do we need to retreat and regroup?" She asked.
"Unfortunately no these not enough time to do that and as of right now I don't have a plan that doesn't involve a flaming boat." He said causing the rest (except for Sev) if he was serious.
"Then we stay and fight just tell us when you got something Grima." Corrin yelled and sending a much needed smile.
"Alright then everyone prepare yourselves!" Robin yelled.
...
A.N: Thank you all so much for waiting and yes I pulled a dick move in the beginning but don't worry I promise you that next chapter the two will end up together.
Anyway a couple of announcement after the next chapter I may enter a small hiatus but for good reasons.
The reason why is that I have two new stories I want to set up.
One is "Grima/Robin Support Convos" I'm pretty sure you all know what that mean.
The second is called "A Dark Heart" a Fates/ Hyrule Warriors Cross over that has Male Corrin enter the conflict of a The Kingdom of Hyrule and the Forces of Darkness right after the Conquest Ending.
And please go easy on me for shameless plugs.
As always constructive criticism is wanted and thank you for almost 100 fallowers I would have never guessed that one of my story's could brake the single digits and you proved me wrong and for that thank you.
