Written in May '09. This is focusing on Alihi and Akihi's relationship in FEFVerse, a modified version of Aliverse where Alihi was the tactician in FE7. Basically, Ryuu died, Alihi went to Learania, and Akihi and Amara followed afterwords.

Alihi's feet pounded against the ground, taking her farther and farther away from a place she could call "home". She clutched her arm tightly, protecting the sensitive skin from the branches she ran through.

What happened to us?

It started out so innocently. She was talking casually about the party she had gotten back from, and then suddenly her brother, her twin brother… suddenly, he whipped out an Elfire tome and started to attack her.

We used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely.

She bit her tongue, willing herself not to cry. Something changed inside her brother… He used to be so shy and tentative.
He didn't hesitate for a second to attack her then. There was no second thought that he could burn the small house down, that her little daughter, Amara, could have been watching… It was just pure fury, concentrated into one magical ball of fire…

What happened to us?

"Akihi… why?" She murmured, wrapping a white roll of bandage to conceal the burns on her left arm. Was he envious of her opportunities? Angry that he was left with her daughter yet again? Tired of always being in her shadow? Or was it a combination of all three?

She clutched her arm tightly, staring up at the blue sky. A sigh escaped her lips.

And deep inside I wonder, "Did I lose my only one?"
