Part 2
Series: Fire Emblem Awakening
Main character of series: Robin
"Where's Sora?"
Vaike and Miriel turned to each other as their captain asked them.
Their tactician asked to be left alone after they fought enemy forces of Valm, sent by Walthart.
Returning their gaze to Chrom, the magic user responded.
"Due to the aftermath of the battle, it is safe to assume-"
"He's over there."
Vaike interrupted Miriel as he pointed to where their tactician.
Whereas Miriel eye twitched from being interrupted, Chrom nodded.
"Thanks. Head on back with the others."
As the two left, Chrom overheard a bit on what they're discussing with each other.
"Was that necessary to interrupt me?"
"Come on, we both know you like to drag on the conversation."
Chrom couldn't help but chuckle as heard the two argued with each other.
Walking until he was a couple of feet away from him.
How two bounce back from one another. Seeing that despite losing his older sister, Chrom was able to continue to improve. Not an easy path, but one he has to take.
Meanwhile, their tactician sighed at the loss of lives from the recent battle. He might not be the smartest tactician, but he is one of the more creative ones. With the help of Miriel on strategizing, and Vaike on understanding the strengths and weakness on people fighting, Sora tend to get creative on strategies thanks to the two.
Luckily the Shepards weren't killed, but some did have near death experience and fatal injuries from time to time.
"So much death..."
Sora felt a hand on his shoulder and turned to see Chrom.
"Sora?"
Sora turned his face to the ground, unable to meet the captains gaze.
"Could I have-"
"No, Sora. Sometimes... sometimes it's in human nature for things like this to happen."
Sora bit his lip at that, still not use to killing humans even now.
The closest ones he ever did kill was the pirates in the Caribbean, but even then, they were still dead unlike this world.
"It's just..."
"I know. It gets harder to continue on to fight. Heck, even now, i'm learning as I continue on fighting for my homeland. It's why everyday, I try to be a better man so that I can be a better king."
Saying his piece, Chrom retrieved his hand from the tacticians shoulder.
"Lets return to the Shepards. I'm sure Mor- Kairi would like to see you."
Hearing that, Sora closed his eyes and breathed in and out looking at Chrom with a determined look.
He still has a son to find.
"Right."
Later...
"So your my... s-son."
After fighting in the Ruins of Time, the Shepards came face to face with the son of the tactician.
It was interesting experience for Sora to say the least.
Now that they made camp near the ruins, the two are finally able to talk to each other.
Sora noticed that his... son, used magic, whereas his daughter uses swords.
Though he still doesn't understand where the 'Morgan' nickname kicked in.
The tacticians son scratched the back, similar to how Sora does when he's nervous.
"Hey uh, dad? As you should know, my name is Riku. Sooo... how are you doing?"
Sora couldn't help but sweat drop, knowing that it took a long time before he got use to his daughter.
'This is getting awkward.'
Before the two could talk, they were interrupted by his daughter, Kairi, tackling Riku into a hug."
"Bro! I can't believe you got lost like that!"
With Kairi letting go of the hug, the boy chuckled nervously as he put his hand behind.
"Sorry about that, it just happens sometimes."
"Ahem."
The two turned to their dad as he got their attention.
"No offense but... do either know who your mother is? I-If it's only one person I married?"
Sora prayed it was was only one person from his future self.
He does not need to have a mental crisis on finding out he dated more than one girl.
The two siblings turned to each other before Kairi spoke up.
"Yeah, dad, about that... We don't know what she looks like."
Sora blinked twice before he shouted.
"Huh!?"
Riku was the one who spoke up
"Both of us have memory loss on her. Besides, we thought you knew."
"Why would I be interested in a relationship of all things!? I have enough on my plate as a tactician!"
It was his kids turn to sweat drop as Sora is currently running around frantically in a circle.
Meanwhile, Chrom was laughing at his tactician as he was eating with his daughter.
"They seem to be lively, don't you think?"
"Father."
Chrom head turned and his smile dampened when he saw his daughter face frowning.
"What's wrong?"
"Does he hold the one?"
Now it was Chrom's turn to frown, lucky enough to understand on what she meant.
Sora held Grima.
Lucina deduced that, out of all of the Shepards, the tactician was the closest friend to Chrom. Deducing that, She also counted on the fact that he had some memory loss, not realizing who he is and what he holds.
Lucina froze with what Chrom said next.
Lucina, I suggest you don't do anything rash. I have already lost my sister, so I don't need to have you do something as stupid as killing my closest friend. When the time comes, we will deal with it without sacrifice. Do you understand me?"
Lucina could only nod at his tone of authority.
Later...
"Captain... is there some important reason you wanted to discuss with us about?"
Vaike and Inigo are currently in the meeting room with their captain, Chrom.
Chrom answered Vaike's question.
"Vaike, I only brought you in here for Inigo's protection so that I can discuss things with... him."
Vaike raised his eyebrows at that, never really hearing that tone on his captain before while Inigo was sweating.
Sighing, Chrom slammed his hands on his desk.
"Now gentlemen, we're not gonna sit here and pretend there's not a giant elephant in the room."
Vaike turned his head toward Inigo before turning to Chrom before asking.
"What the heck is going on?"
Chrom pulled out a picture portrait and slammed it on the desk, showing... his daughter?
"This is what the heck is going on."
Vaike blinked as he looked at the picture before turning to Inigo, having a guilty look on his face. Turning back to the picture, he finally realized what happened.
"Oh, gods! OH, GODS! BWHAHAHAHA!"
He couldn't hold back his laughter as he leaned toward Inigo, holding onto his shoulders immediately for support.
Finally, he got up and headed toward the exist of the room.
"No! That is not happening right now! No!"
Flabbergasted, Inigo spoke up.
"W-Wait! Where are you...?"
He let out as sigh as he saw him walked out the room.
'So much for 'protection'.'
Suddenly, the two heard a loud voice out of the room.
"Hey everyone, he's dating the captain's daughter! Yo!"
The two sweat drop at that, knowing that the secret is now out.
Recovering, Chrom and Inigo eyed each other.
"I-I-"
"Oh, trust me, I'll find a proper punishment for you."
Inigo decided to keep his mouth shut.
"Yo Inigo, you clearly... T-This is the best thing ever! BWHAHA!"
Suddenly, Vaike came into the room and did a bit of a dance to the two.
"Inigo's dating the captain's daughter~. Inigo's dating the captain's daughter~."
Yep, Inigo the smooth talker was dating Lucina.
Calming down, Vaike immediately grabbed onto Inigo's shoulders before speaking up.
"GODS! Your dating Chrom's daughter!? What the... Y-You bragged to him to his face with the advice he gave you! To his actual face. Captain..."
He then pointed toward Chrom, who had a withering glare on his face.
"Do you understand that this face right here, you bragged to that face? You actually high-fived Chrom for landing a date with his daughter."
Vaike finally decided to sit down after what all transpired.
"Gods, this is..."
Vaike calmed up when he saw the stink eye his captain was giving him.
"I-It's not really that funny."
Twiddling his thumbs, Ingio spoke up again.
"I think it's bizarre... not to share the fact that... I was found out?"
"I think it's bizarre that I hadn't knocked your teeth off that prick face of yours."
Deciding to help, Vaike decided to have the punishment be a quick one.
"What if... the captain gets to punch you in the face one time, really, really, really hard?"
The captain grinned at having a better idea.
"Nah. I thought of something that would be more... fun. Think of it as training."
Later that day, Inigo was running at mox speed away from two dragons on his tail as he dodged a fireball.
"CAN THE TWO OF YOU KNOCK IT OFF WITH THE FREAKING FIREBALLS!?"
"Nope!"
"Why? This is fun!"
Sora sighed as he saw his kids chasing down Inigo in their dragon forms.
He turned his head to an evilly chucking Chrom.
Yeah, not a safe sight right now.
"Chrom, isn't this... excessive?"
Chrom shook his head in disagreement.
"I thought of worst, Sora. Besides, As an uncle, I can't let their niece and nephews alone forever, can I?"
Sora sweat drop at his train of logic.
Although it was interesting in finding out they can transform like Nowi.
Safe to say that the two of their relationship isn't that deep.
'Despite narrowing it down, I still don't know who their mother is. Probably someone I have 't met.'
Later...
"What a lovely night sky."
Sora and Lady Tiki were currently watching the deep blue sky that they were seeing.
The tactician couldn't help but let out a chuckle.
"You're not wrong there."
Tiki then spoke softly, resulting in Sora to strain his ears to hear.
"Mar-Mar would of loved seeing this."
He frowned at that, knowing that her friend is no longer in this world. He never truly thought about what its like to live forever.
It must of been... rough.
Breathing in before letting out the air he sucked in, he turned to her and told her something only Chrom and Lucina know.
"You know I hold... Grima, right?"
Tiki tilted her head to the side before speaking again.
"What of it?"
Sora was... surprised she would say. He held THE Fell Dragon. That's not something to be relaxed about.
"Huh?"
"I'm not speaking with him, i'm speaking with you. So do not think any less of yourself."
Sora smiled a bit at that, thankful that she doesn't think any less of him
"T-Thanks."
"I'm serious, he would of been interested in seeing your bravery and tenacity."
Tiki knew that Marth would of been curious on the hero's of today. So different, yet so similar.
Her face then soften into a sad look.
"Although... what peaked my interest is how your not..."
Sora looked down on the the ground to where his hands are.
"Not me. Yeah."
It was surprising that the Robin of this world is gone, and the one in the future is possessed by the Fell Dragon.
Sora then clenched his fists.
"It's just... have I took away his dreams? His future? I..."
Unclenching his fists and sighing, he turned his head up to the sky.
"How would he feel about me? About someone I never even met."
Tiki proceeded to scoot closer to Sora, reassuring him
"Robin would of been the proudest man. Even though none of us ever met him, i'm sure wouldn't hold a grudge that's out of your control."
Sora turned to Tiki and let out a small smile at that.
"Guess with how you are, you're to know more than me."
Tiki shook her head as she clasped her hand with Sora's, startling him a bit before having his face turn slightly red at the sudden contact.
"I don't think of it like that. Everyone throughout the stars, society, or lives have something different than one another."
Eventually, she rested her head on his shoulders, looking out at the stars with half-opened eyes.
""But it doesn't mean we can't understand each other."
Sora heat thumped slowly, unable to know on what to say on the situation.
"U-Uuummm..."
Before Sora could d oanything else, Tiki spoke up.
"Can we... stay like this for a while longer?"
"S-Sure?"
With Sora squeaking that out, the two looked on seeing the stars and bright moon.
Meanwhile, the pair were being watched by Vaike and Miriel.
"Interesting."
Vaike raised an eyebrow, wondering what she came up with what was happening
"So? What do you think those two are doing out there?"
Miriel's mind stirred, trying to understand what would be the best hypothesis of the current predicement.
"I believe those two are either having a conversation upon their own lives."
"Or?"
"Or, in other words, becoming intimate."
Vaike blinked a bit at that before responding.
"What? You can't be serious."
Afterall, She's like... older than him. How the heck would that work?
Miriel sighed, formulating the way to explain why she came to that conclusion.
"I do not see what the problem is. Besides, we both know that the two of them are lost in their own way. One far from home, and the other in a place they are not familiar with. Unlike everyone else here, they are in situations in which we are unable to relate. Their similarities and relatability are much stronger with each other than anyone here."
Vaike scratched his head as he processed this. He's not the smartest, but he ain't no slacker.
They knew their friend was 'reborn' as he called it. It was odd, but it made sense as to why he acted very different than everyone else.
Provably a good thing to, since he's able to connect to a lot of people that he wouldn't imagine to be able to.
Vaike let out air he never knew he held and looked to the sky.
"I just... hope they can find what they are looking for.
"I am in the same position in that regard."
Elsewhere, Say'ri watched on Lady Tiki and the tactician, as she hope that the two find happiness in this dreary time.
"Lady Tiki..."
Later...
"Different name, same outcome. Come and return to me. Afterall, we are one and the same."
Sora, Chrom, Tiki and the rest of the Shepards are currently fighting the Fell Dragon, Grima.
While Chrom and the other Shepards deal with the Risen army, Tiki and Sora were the ones that fought Grimma.
The sight of the silhouette of the dragon that's behind Robin's body was similar to the Titians he fought at Olympus.
'It's a lot bigger than I thought.'
Sora thought as he turned to his wife.
Yes, not out of ill will, but because he knew Kairi wouldn't want him to wait on her forever. With it almost being three years, he realized that he might not be able to return to the life he once had. That didn't mean he was going to let this world fall while he was on it.
"Ready?"
Tiki smiled before transforming into her dragon form. With her transformation finished, she responded.
"Always."
Grimma used Expiration to summon purple spike against the two, resulting in Tiki to grab Sora in her hands and eventually having Sora on Tiki's back, circling around the body of Robin.
The dragon fired a fireball at the two, but to Grimmas surprise, Tiki took it, resulting in the dragon to be covered in smoke.
To Grimaa's surprise, a Thoron spell shot through the smoke and and hit him, resulting in taking damage from the thunder Tome.
Clutching his chest, Grimma snarled.
"Tch, tricks won't save you forever."
Realizing an opportunity is near, Naga spoke up.
"His end is near. Either to be slain by Chrom or by Sora, the decision must be made.
Sora frowned realizing that she wouldn't say that if she didn't sense Grimma's weakened stance.
Getting off of Tiki and landing onto the ground, he made a run toward Grimma. The dragon fired a fireball but was intercepted by Tiki's own.
Waiting for an opportunity, Grimma released Expiration to summon purple spikes against Sora, but was able to slide dash out of the way.
Seizing an opportunity, put forth as much magic as he can in his next attack.
"You're finished!"
With all his might, he summoned Thoron against the Dragon and resulted in it to be struck.
"Grrr!"
Panting heavily, the Fell Dragon was now on his knee.
With Chrom slaying his current opponent, he saw the Fell Dragon unable to stand up.
"Now to end this."
As he prepared to head over there with Falchion, he was interrupted by another Risen in his way.
Seeing that Chrom was fighting another enemy, he whispered softly to him.
"But not in the way you think, Chrom."
Sora knew that... he had to give up his life.
Better to have the enemy gone than come back, right?
With Tiki coming down and returned to normal, her eyes widen when Sora brought out his Levin sword.
Realizing that he's not waiting on Chrom.
"S-Sora? What are you-"
Before she say anything else, Sora cupped her face with his hand,
"Through time and life, no matter where i'll end, I will always look after all that I hold dear."
When she saw how determined his eyes were... there was no changing his mind.
Letting out a single tear, Tiki nodded in understanding.
Breathing heavily, Grimma let out his own thoughts to the tactician.
"Y-You fool! You would throw your life away!? A second time!? I'd rather sleep than fade into nothingness! Do you hear me!?"
Turning to Grimma, Sora closed his eyes as he heard that.
With the survival of Gangerel and Walthart, Emmeryn somehow surviving, different versions of Yen'fay and Aversa, and having the Radient hero joining as well, he knew that his life will always be wierd.
And he knew that... this is his end.
Opening his eyes again, he responded.
"I accept my end. Will You?"
Lifting his sword and summoning forth lighting magic from it, it reached its target and struck down the Fell Dragon.
"Gaaaaahhhhh!"
And with that, the body fell and eventually dissolved in purple smoke, along with the dragon and the remaining Risen, resulting the ground to shake before calming down.
With the shaking dying down, Sora realized he's fading in purple smoke, much to Tiki's horror.
'Never thought... I'd save... a world again.'
That were his thoughts as his kids, Chrom, and the rest of the Shepards ran toward him.
With enough energy, he let out his one last goodbye.
"Thank... you all... for everything."
And with that, Sora faded, resulting in everyone shouting for him to not go.
"SORA/DAD!"
Later...
"Miriel, is this the house?"
Vaike and Miriel made their way toward a small house, away from a nearby town.
Miriel spoke up as they were now standing in fronypt of the door.
"Positive. Although, it is strange the would like to live in seclusion."
Vaike just shrugged.
"Meh, it's their life after all."
Finishing his piece, he knocked on the door awaiting on the owner.
The door opened to reveal a man with white hair.
Although he was originally suppose to disappeared, Naga reassured the Shepards that as long as they keep him close to his heart, he would return to them once more.
It took quite some time before Chrom and Frederick found him in an open field.
"The two of you actually made it."
Vaike waved off Soras welcoming.
"Yeah yeah, no fancy late entry or anything. Lets see where they are already."
Chuckling, he lead the two to where the bedroom are at.
In the bedroom, Say'ri stood beside the bed, awaiting with Tiki holding onto The young Riku and Kairi on each arm.
As the two entered, Vaike blinked and tilted his head upon realizing something.
"Huh... the two of them actually got your hair colors like their counterpart. Thought they would get their mothers. What about the future kids?"
Sora realized that he was talking about the other Riku
"They came, but they had other things to do."
Meanwhile, Miriel was currently discussing with Say'ri.
"It's is interesting to be here as well."
Say'ri chuckled at that.
"Indeed. Although perhaps with me serving Lady Tiki, I would like to acquire something... honorable."
Miriel raised an eyebrow at that.
"And what would that be?"
"Being a godmother."
Miriel immediately frowned at that as she pushed up her glasses.
"Excuse me? I'll have you know that my knowledge will be more beneficially than your 'swordplay' that you will most certainly teach.
"Funny, I can teach them my culture that would be rather less... bland than yours."
Sensing a fight between the two going on, Vaike edge closer to Sora as he had his own question to ask.
"So... Chrom's the god father?"
Tiki and Sora turned to each other and grinned a few second later before facing Vaike.
"Still thinking about it."
Sora couldn't help but laugh as he saw his friend's jaw drop.
What curious life indeed.
'No matter what happens in the future, I will always be in your heart, and be there for you.'
Hope this wasn't to bad.
Sorry, I suck at writing fights. Not really good at them.
As for why I hadn't uploaded... well...
Luxu: Long story short, had to clean the grandparents and mothers house (and paint as well with help), sister had to go hospital twice, went on cruise before Virus spread a week later. So yeah, motivation was zero until now.
Sorry for it being so late hope all of ya'll stay safe. China need better health system on their meat. It looked awful from the Youtube videos. on the meat market. Spread the word on China to fic their health system, because this was not the first time this happened, on first time to spread this badly
Stay safe.

And I realized its on the day of April Fools. That's intereasting.
