Inspired by the original Brotherhood, but this time with Cereza, next time will be the first DLC
Brotherhood Princess
*Waldorina*
An explosive friendship
Mother: I'm sorry, Waldorina, but from now on you'll be living with your uncle Dixon...
The 12 year old Waldo looked at her mother, she knew that this story was just an excuse to send her somewhere to protect her.
and it was later that night that she heard them talking...
Mother: Is it really a good thing to send him away?
Father: We have no choice, and it's best for her...
Mother: But
Father: I trust my brother, he's a kingsglaive, she'll be safer with him than Insmonia is with us.
Mother: I know you're right, I just hope she can handle it.
*the next day*
Father of W: Hello, Dixon.
Dixon: Hey, brother.
Father of W: Good to see you again
Waldo: Morning, Uncle Dixon.
Dixon: How is my darling niece
Waldo: Could be better.
Father of W: Waldorina, where are your suitcases?
Waldo: They're here.
Dixon: All right, go load them in the car, I'll meet you after.
Waldo: Okay.
Waldo went to the car with his luggage in his hand, and put it in the trunk.
Father of W: Please take good care of her.
Dixon: You don't have to worry.
Later the car started, Waldo saying a last goodbye to his parents before leaving waving goodbye to them.
Waldo: Say, Uncle Dixon, where are we going?
Dixon: To Igdrasil.
Waldo: Say it's true you're in charge of looking after the princess.
Dixon: That's right, I'll introduce you to her if you want, she's the same age as you, I'm sure you'd make friends.
Waldo: Hmm.
All the rest of the journey was silent, arriving in Igdrasil Waldo looked at the city where she would live from now on.
Dixon: You know, you can look around, I'll take care of your bags, but don't go too far.
Waldo: Yeah.
Waldo walked around looking around, she was homesick, she missed her house...
Waldo: His streets don't tell me anything, I'm uncomfortable.
She lives near a lake, she walked on the footbridge and looked at her face in the water...
Waldo: I want to go home
She heard a crack, but unfortunately too late, she ended up in the water.
Waldo: Help, I can't swim.
She couldn't hold on any longer, footsteps from someone running and jumping into the water were heard, Waldo felt the person take her arm and bring her to the surface.
... Hang on!
Thanks to her, she found her way back to dry land.
... Are you okay?
Waldo: Yes, thank you.
Waldo saw the girl who had saved him, the same age as her, 12 years old with black hair and blue eyes.
... : You scared me, thank God I was passing by...
Waldo: Sorry, I can't swim.
... Ah, I see, be careful next time.
Waldo: Okay.
... Damn it's so late already, I have to leave you, see you later.
Waldo: Wait, I don't know his name.
* Later *
Dixon: Ah, there you are, Waldorina, but why are you soaking wet?
Waldo: I fell in the lake.
Dixon: Tough luck, poor thing. Go change quickly before you catch a cold,
Waldo: Okay.
Dixon: And come back in the living room afterwards, I'd like to introduce you to someone
Waldo went up to his room and started changing.
Waldo: I wonder who that girl was, I'd like to see her again.
Later she came back to the living room and saw that her uncle wasn't alone...
Dixon: Ah Waldorina, I'd like you to meet our princess.
Cereza Lucis Caelum
As soon as Waldo saw the princess, she was surprised to see the girl who saved him...
Reza: Ah, you're the girl from earlier.
Waldo: * Embarrassed* Yes indeed, nice to meet you. Cereza hime.
Reza: You don't have to be so formal, just call me Reza.
Waldo: Then call me Waldo, princ... no Reza.
The two girls shook hands and a great friendship began...
End
*Erik*
Fighting at will
Erik: What do you mean you're leaving me
Elyana: Don't make it harder, Erik.
Erik : No wait, explain ELYANA!
Erik woke up, he was now in his room in his apartment, alone.
Erik: A dream
* Later in the day*
Somewhere on a biker track somewhere, the bikers were speeding, one of them was Reza...
Eddie: Don't you feel like you're overdoing it, "black wolf hunter"
Reza: (Clenches teeth)
As she rolled along the finish line was right there and at the last moment she passed Eddie taking the lead and won the race.
Eddie: Someday I'm gonna get you
Waldo arrived at Reza's side, happy with his victory...
Waldo: You were great Reza, taking the lead at the last minute was great art.
Reza: Yeah, thanks, Waldo.
Waldo: This calls for a celebration, so follow me and I'll take you somewhere.
Reza: Oh, no, Waldo.
Waldo: Come on, Reza.
Reza: All right
Waldo: YES!
Erik was walking down the street, and eventually he went to his favorite bar, he sat down at the bar and took out his wallet to look at an old picture of him and his wife Elyana.
Waiter: Holds if it's not Erik.
Erik: One beer
Waiter: You look bad today, you're still thinking about her.
Erik: Mind your own business.
Waiter: Okay, okay, no need to get upset.
Once his beer was served, Erik had a drink and stayed at the counter always looking at the picture,
that's when Reza and Waldo, now 15 years, walked into the bar...
Reza: Where are you taking Waldo?
Waldo: To a great place, in this bar there's even a stage for karaoke.
Reza: I'm not sure if I'm into it.
Waldo: Oh come on Reza, we're gonna have some fun or our princess would scare her off.
Reza: Absolutely not.
Erik: Princess?
Waldo : Hey waiter, give us something
Once their drinks are served Waldo takes a big swig...
Waldo: Oh that feels good, come on, I'll sing the first one.
Waldo ran up on stage and took the microphone...
Waldo: Hey everybody, I'm going to sing, hoping you like it.
Waldo : Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way that things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
Reza: Waldo, you don't miss a beat.
Erik: Hey.
Reza: Yeah?
Erik: You're the princess?
Reza: Who are you?
Erik: Sorry my name is Erik, can I sit down?
Reza: As you wish.
Waldo : Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
I pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
Erik : Your friend sings well
Reza: Yeah, always got to make it interesting.
Erik: My wife was like that too
Reza: You got a wife?
Erik : Well, more like my ex-wife now.
Reza: Tough, is that her in the picture?
Erik: Yeah, but now she's just a shadow of the past.
Reza:...
Waldo : Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, so we're rolling
And we're rolling on the river
I tell you, we're rolling, rolling
We're rolling on the river
Reza: You come here to drown your sorrows
Erik: You could say that.
Reza: It's cruel, you have to pull yourself together.
Erik: Um...
Reza: That's not how you're going to move forward, she's gone, there's nothing you can do about it.
Erik: Thank you, it was good talking to you princess.
Reza: Call me Reza.
Waldo: Wow, that was so cool, huh, who's that?
Reza: Waldo, this is Erik, recently divorced.
Waldo: Oh, tough luck, buddy, but nice to meet you.
Erik: Me too.
At the same time, a group of men entered the bar...
Man: Beer Boy
Man: And we're thirsty
Reza: Who does he think he is
Waldo: Reza, stay out of this.
Unfortunately for her, one of the men had noticed them
Man: You hold two girls this pretty, you're lucky.
Waldo: Hey, get off me!
Man: Pod always my beauty
Waldo: Help Reza help!
Reza: Hey, leave her alone, you drunk bastard!
Reza punched the guy, letting go of Waldo and allowing him to escape.
Man: Oh you
The man pushed her violently and Erik came in...
Erik: Hitting women, have you no honor?
Man: What do you care, you guys surround him!
Reza: Watch out, I'm coming, Erik.
And that's when the fight started with knocks going off in all directions, knocking out the waiter who took a hit by accident.
everything breaks around them, nothing escapes their fury and a few minutes later the trio is still sitting at the bar at a table drinking their drinks around them the ransacked room.
Reza: Not bad, Erik.
Waldo: For a divorced man
Erik: Well, for a former boxer, that's normal.
Waldo: You were a cool boxer
Reza: I'd like to know how to throw those kinds of punches, too.
Erik: I can coach you if you want.
Reza: Really
Erik: Yeah, and I have a favor to ask.
Reza: Yeah?
Erik: Please let me be your bodyguard!
Reza was shocked by his question
Erik: I don't have a job and no goals, but I wish I could move forward like you told me.
I begged you.
Reza: Why not, it's not a bad idea.
Erik: I'm also a good cook.
Reza: Better yet, fine, I accept.
Erik: Thank you so much.
Waldo: Welcome to the team Erik
Reza: And to celebrate that
Reza ran out on stage to grab the microphone...
Reza: Just for today I'm going to sing a song...
Waldo: Yeah, yeah, go ahead, Reza.
Reza : Ever on and on
I continue circling
With nothing but my hate
And the carousel of agony
Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing
And suddenly I see that I can't
Break free I'm
Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity
With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony
To tell me who I am! Who I was!
Uncertainty enveloping my mind
Till I can't break free and
Maybe It's a dream, maybe nothing else is real
But It wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel
So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside
And I wish I could live feeling nothing but the night
You could tell me what to say, You could tell me where to go
But I doubt that I would care and my heart would never know
If I make another move, there'll be no more turning back
Because everything would change and it all would fade to black
This song marks the beginning of a new friend and the duet becomes a trio.
End
Ps: The songs are rolling on the river and Bad Apple (doesn't belong to me)
*Cor and Ignis*
Trusted Guardian
Ignis: Reza, wake up, I'm not done.
Reza, now 11 years, was sleeping on his desk but woken by the screams of Ignis...
Reza: What?
Ignis: Stop snoozing and listen to my class for a while.
Reza: Your classes are so boring Ignis, it's not my fault he makes me want to sleep.
Ignis: You should give them more importance, these classes are important and his majesty has chosen me to be your tutor.
Reza: Blah, blah, blah, blah... I know.
Ignis: Let's start again.
Reza took advantage of Ignis' back to escape from his room...
Ignis: Reza, where are you going, come back here!
Reza started running and managed to get away from him.
Reza: I lost him awesome.
Reza walked down the corridors holding her teddy bear Carbuncle, she saw Cor and decided to follow him.
she saw that he went to the wine cellar of the citadel, he went in and she went in, curious in her turn.
Reza: Marshal
Cor : Oh what's that! Oh it's you princess, what are you doing here?
Reza : I was just curious, what are you doing in the cellar?
Cor : I was going to get a bottle of wine for your father and you, you've run away from Ignis again I bet.
Reza: I can't help it. His classes are so boring, he makes me want to sleep.
Cor : Damn it, you always have to do as you please, what would your father Cereza say?
Reza: I don't care.
Cor : Anyway, we should get out of here.
The moment Cor tried to open the door, the door refused to open no matter how hard she tried.
Cor: Damn, I think we're locked in.
Reza: WHAT! You've got to be kidding me!
Cor : I look like I'm joking, just wait for someone to come and open the door.
Reza: What a hell
Horn : If a certain princess had blocked the door, we wouldn't be in this situation.
Reza: No need to be mean, you know.
They had several minutes of silence Reza sitting on a box swinging his feet and Cor standing with his back against the wall.
Reza: Isn't there a trap door or something?
Cor : Stupid, why would there be a trapdoor in a wine cellar?
Reza: I'm trying to come up with ideas you don't have any either I guess despite the degree of concentration on your face.
Cor: Very funny
Reza: You do have a cell phone
Cor : No networks in this rotten cellar.
Reza: Old man's phone
Cor: Sorry!
Reza: Nothing, it doesn't exhaust you, your work with my father...
Cor : Very exhausting, if I had to work 24 hours a day without sleeping I would do it.
Reza: Oh, not cool.
Cor: As you say.
Reza: You're funny, you're not so cheap.
Reza: I hope they find us soon, I'm not good in confined spaces.
Cor : Are you claustrophobic princess
Reza: Don't tell anyone, I'm begging you.
Cor : You have my word as a bodyguard and how do the young people say, cross of wood, cross of iron.
Reza: If you're lying, you'll go to hell.
At the same time the cellar door opened.
Ignis: Reza
Reza: Ignis!
Ignis: Damn it, I've been looking everywhere for you.
Reza: It's all right, plus I wasn't alone.
Ignis : Oh marshal
Cor : Hello Ignis
Ignis: I'm sorry for the trouble she must have caused you.
Cor : No problem, and then we had the opportunity to discuss
Ignis: Huh.
Reza: * nod your head *
Ignis : Ok, well, I have to pick up Noct from school, it's time.
Reza: I wish I could go with you so much
Ignis: You know you're not allowed to leave the citadel...
Reza: That's not fair!
Cor : What if I went with her
Ignis: Huh?
Cor : I'm her bodyguard after all, and if I'm with her it shouldn't be a problem, I'll explain to the king.
Reza: Say yes Ignis, say yes, say yes.
Ignis: All right, you win.
Reza: Yeah.
Ignis : It's Noct who's going to be happy, seriously, the cellar, what's next, the garage?
Later the three of them were in the car driving to Noctis' school.
Cor : We've arrived
Ignis: Stay in the car, Reza.
Ignis got out of the car as always. Noctis was waiting in the front seat.
Ignis: Good morning Noct, good day
Noct: Yeah.
Ignis: I've got something that's gonna cheer you up.
Ignis opened the car door...
Reza: Surprise!
Noct : Reza!
Noct wasted no time in his hugs
Noct: You came, but you're not allowed to go out.
Cor : She's with me
Noct : Oh hello Marshal
Noct gets in the car, ignis closing the door behind him.
Noct: Let's go home
Reza: Yes
End
*Noctis*
The love of a brother
For as long as I can remember...
I've always protected him
Reza 8 years old was patiently waiting for her brother to return from school and when she saw from her window the black car parked downstairs,
she ran through the corridors with a smile on her face, and when she got to the hall she saw him with Ignis.
Reza: Noct
Reza rushed into her arms, he too was happy to see her...
Reza: Welcome home.
Noct: I'm home, have you been good?
Reza : Yes like a picture
Noct: That's good, let's go, it's almost time for dinner, daddy's probably waiting for us...
Reza: Let's go.
The twins left for the dining room, and later the three of them sat at the table eating Reza right next to Noct.
Regis: Reza
Reza: Yes father
Regis: I liked the flowers you put in my room, thank you for the lovely attention.
Reza: As soon as it wilts, I'll put on more.
Her father smiled at her and she did the same, Noct also smiled, His sister was an angel in his eyes.
Reza: I'm done, can I get off the table?
Regis: Sure.
Noct: I'm done, too.
Noct took his sister's hand and took her to her room...
Noct: You look sad, Reza.
Reza: I'd like to get out, out.
Noct: Father would never, and then I don't understand why he has to lock you in here...
Reza: Ah I'm sick of it, I want to get out, I want to go to the city.
Noct: You know what, if you want to go out, well, you're gonna go out.
Reza: Really!
Noct : I have an idea, but first we'll have to escape from Ignis' vigilance that should be coming soon.
Reza: What's your plan?
Noct: Listen to me, *he whispers in her ear.*
Reza: Understood
A few seconds later Ignis came into the room with a book in her hand.
Ignis: Noct, Reza it's time for your reading.
Noct: Ignis We can study in the garden today
Ignis: If you want
The three went into the garden, their plans set in motion...
Ignis, with his head buried in his book, which he was reading aloud, did not realize that the twins had gone quietly to the back of the garden, through a small trapdoor that led them out, Noct guided Reza through a kind of tunnel.
Noct: Now we're outside the citadel.
Reza: Great, you're the best.
Noct: And wait, this is only the beginning, put your hood on so nobody will recognize us and stay close to me.
Reza: Okay.
Noctis took his sister across town, taking her to the arcade, toy store and other places, Reza amazed and happy to finally be able to go outside and have fun,
Noct then took him to an ice-cream parlour, she waited for him in front of the window while he went to get ice cream.
Noct: Here I am, hold a red fruit ice cream, your favorite flavor...
Reza: Thanks Noct
Reza: Thanks Noct
The two of them sat on a bench and ate their ice cream in silence...
Noct: So are you happy with your first date?
Reza: Oh yeah, I had a great time, I love you Noctis.
Noct: I'm glad, I love you too my Reza
Reza gave him a big hug and gave him a big hug and gave him a big hug.
Noct: Let's go home now
The two of them went back the way he had come and here they are again in the garden, but at the same time a completely angry Ignis looked at them with a dark aura that made them shudder.
Ignis : So my reading is so horrible!
Noct : Ignis we can explain
Reza: Noct run !
Ignis : Wait a minute you two, come back here.
*in the evening*
Currently in Reza's room, Noct was brushing his hair...
Reza: Noct, thanks for the day I'll never forget it.
Noct: You're my sister, I'd do anything for you.
Reza: Good night Noct
Noct : Good night my angel
But that night, I didn't make it.
10-year-old Reza got stuck in a car on the edge of the ravine...
Noct : Reza your hand !
Reza : Noct... help me...
Unfortunately the car fell into the Noctis Ravine and was barely caught by a guard, but Cereza fell with the car.
Noct : REZA!
Reza : AHHHHHHHH!
All he could hear was his scream and the car falling down.
*Back to the current time*
Noctis's group is Cereza's group was fighting against a really big and tough monster, Noct as he was about to attack was tackled to the ground.
Prompto: Noct!
The monster was about to attack him but Reza stepped in...
Reza: Father lend me your strength, to overcome my fears and answer his courage. That's enough!
She swung as many swords as she could without stopping, the monster was nothing but a pile of flesh, Reza came towards his brother and held out his hand.
Reza: Noct all right?
Noct on the ground completely shocked saw the wounds on his cheek and arm, thinking back to that awful night, he took his hands and tears were streaming from his eyes.
Noct: I'm sorry, I'm terribly sorry, once again I didn't...
The other disbelievers didn't know why Noct had got into this state, but Reza understood, she smiled a sad smile and put her forehead on his...
Once again, I have failed to succeed
And this time, she protected me
End
