Love on the Battlefield

Ike x Jill
"Jill! You're going in too deep, pull back!" Ike shouted from the ground as he watched Jill zoom overhead. During the meeting before the battle, the roles of each individual had been carefully laid out: Ike, Jill and Titania would provoke the enemy out of position so that Alfonse's forces could flank them from the sides. It was a classic pincer move that had proven successful quite a number of times against Bruno's forces. However, Jill's mind was full of memories of her father and how grand a wyvern lord he was. The death of her father still weighed heavily on her heart, often flaring up deep inside of her when she took to the battlefield, with this battle not being an exception. Jill's eyes filled with furious tears as she twirled her poleaxe over her head before locking it into an attacking position.
"I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT I CAN DO FATHER! JUST WATCH ME...I'LL MAKE YOU PROUD!" Jill cried, diving at the firm line of infantry that sat on the top wall of the stronghold. Ike clenched his teeth as he watched her wreckless act, growling as he watched a flurry of arrows begin to fly about. Ike raised his blade over his head, now charging the enemy head on with a call out to Titania, who was the vice commander of the operation.
"Titania join me up front! We're going to have to charge through these forces to get to Jill before they shoot her down!" he shouted, Titania's mount now storming at his side. Several bodies dropped form the sky as Jill swatted them off the their perch, quickly shifting her reigns to make a u-turn on her wyvern. Ike and Titania began cleaving away at the enemy, dropping soldier after soldier as they desperately tried to make their way on top of the wall. The number of Bruno's troops began to grow in mass waves, stumping Ike's and Titania's attempt to breach the parameter before they could even gain a foothold in. Ike groan in aggrevation as he went on guard, his eyes constantly shifting between his foe and Jill to make sure she was still a loft.
"Ike this is too much! We have to fall back!" Titania chimed in, chopping down three soldiers with a powerful wide swing. Her horse made a war cry as she pulled viciously on the reigns, turning it completely around to make a hasty retreat. Ike on the other hand refused to be pushed back so easily, cutting down 3 more soldiers with a single stroke of his blade. His attention was suddenly swayed by the screaming sounds of a wyvern in agony, forcing him to take a roll along the ground. Guarding the next blow then kicking then giving them a shoulder bash to back off, Ike immediately chased after the sound as he dashed off to escape. High above he watched as a barrage of arrows sunk their stinging tips into the wyvern's wings, causing Jill to lose control of her altitude.
"No no no! We can't go down now! Come on, hang in there!" Jill cried, grasping a hold of her beloved wyvern as she pulled hard on her reigns, changing her trajectory of her fall. Ike chased after the roaring wyvern as it desperately tried to hold up in the sky, but another barrage of arrows finally put down the persistant beast. Ike's eyes then widened with fear as he watched Jill being thrown from the saddle from 100 feet int he air, now plummeting into the forested area west of the castle.
"DAMN IT ALL! Titania, join Alfonse's unit and follow his order, I'm going in to forest to try and retrieve Jill!" Ike growled, sheathing his sword and running at top speed towards the woods. Titania sighed and shook her head, immediately turning her mount towards the hill in which Alfonse was perched.
"Your heart is too big for its own good sometimes Ike, but then again, that's why a lot of us follow you," Titania sighed with a shake of her head. All of Ike's senses were blinded by his fear and anger; all that filled his mind was finding Jill and praying to the Gods that she wasn't snuffed from this world. No matter how small, no matter how long they had been with him, he cared for everyone under his command within the Greil mercenaries as if they were family, and he wasn't about to have one of his siblings die needlessly. The occasional whines of the dying wyvern acted as his guide as he trounced through the thick brush of the woods, avoiding as many natural obstacles as he could.
"Where is she, where is she...this damn forest is so thick...wait...I think that's her!" Ike droned, finally spotting the red armor of his dear soldier and friend. Although the wyvern was nowhere in sight, the rider was now in plain sight. He could see several arrows lodged in her side, sticking out in his direction as he finally arrived to her. He immediately dove into the dirt, quickly examining her.
"Jill! Jill!" Ike cried, giving her a few sudden shakes. Jill's body began to tremble as she opened up one eye, looking at her savior with tears.
"I-I'm sorry Ike...I should've just listened...my side...really hurts..." Jill frowned with grand guilt in her heart, the pain shooting through her side and back like electricity shocking her system.
"Shh, shh, it's OK Jill, just save your strength. We need to get out of the open immediately. Just...stay still OK?" Ike muttered, gathering his thoughts and nerves to steady himself as he analyzed the scenario. He wrapped his arms beneath her back and knees, hoisting her up against his chest so that he could go to try and find somewhere more suitable to rest. Jill's face was flushed as she turned her pained, teary eyes up to Ike, huddling against him for warmth as blood trailed from her arrow wounds. Ike paused as the sound of movement began to surround him. Spinning in slow circles, he tried to take heed to which direction that hailed the loudest. He then paused as something moist dripped onto his head, now realizing what the sounds were truly signifying.
"Great...just what we need. Hang on Jill, I'm going to have to pick up the pace," Ike sighed, charging through the woods as a wild storm began to form. Rain began to flood their path, forcing him to now tredge through mud and debris as he searched. Jill still couldn't believe her eyes as they admired Ike's fierce determination, putting his own life on the line to take care of her. Finally, a spark of luck finally flashed itself before them; there was a giant tree whose roots arched from its base, creating a cavity large enough for the both of them to slip into comfortably. Ike carefully eased into the cavity, with there hardly being enough room to so much as sit up straight. He let out a sigh as he gently laid her out onto her back, helping her stretch out her limbs so that she could comfortably flat. He began stripping down her armor piece by piece until it was all laid out to the side. Ike perked up once he found the arrows locations. He turned to Jill with apologetic eyes as he gently pressed his hand to her stomach.
"This is going to hurt like hell Jill, but I need to get these arrows out. Take a deep breath and hold it OK?" Ike sighed with Jill giving him a very weak nod. He firmly planted his hand onto her stomach, counting off so that she knew when he was to pull. Finishing his counting, he pulled at the first arrow with all of his might, causing a scream of pain to leave her quivering lips. He quickly tossed it away, grasping onto the second one with a fierce yank. Jill's screams echoed for a moment within the cavity before Ike was able to figure out how to mend the wounds.
Quickly thinking, he immediately whipped his cape around, grunting as he tore a long, thick strip of it off by force. He then quickly returned his attention to Jill, raising her up so that he could warp it around her small, frail frame. Jill made dreadful grunts of pain as he tied it up harshly, making sure that it wouldn't come undone in the process. Breathing heavily with constant whimpers between each, Jill immediately turned her eyes to Ike.
"I-Ike...I-I'm very cold..." Jill winced, her face growing red while her skin was going pale. Ike took another dross, heavy sigh, slowly removing the restraints on his own armor as well. Article by article, he began to blanket Jill in his clothes and cape, creating a makeshift blanket to try and heat her up underneath it. Ike pressed a hand to his forehead than onto hers, getting a quick read of her temperature while she heated up.
"I-I'm sorry Ike...I couldn't get my father out of my mind...I'm trying so hard to get his death out of my feelings but..." Ike placed his fingers against Jill's lips, quieting her as he wiped a small tear from her eyes.
"Just relax OK? I'm not upset with you or anything over this. I was just worried to death that you could've gotten yourself killed," Ike whispered, removing his undershirt and folding it up to form a makeshift pillow for her head.
"You know, you and I aren't so different in that regard...I still remember the day that my father was killed...it seemed so unreal that I refused to believe it really happened. It wasn't til a bit of time went by that I could finally put it behind me enough to function, especially since I had become a leader. Even though you were a drifter that just happened to join us, I've always thought of you as one of my own. You are reckless sure, but you do have a good heart, and that's something you shouldn't ever lose sight of," Ike said, moving a handkerchief from his pocket out into the rain.
Jill couldn't help but to blush, her eyes fluttering from embarassment as she looked all over Ike's well toned body, studying it as if she were a scholar; it was clear that he not only took care of everyone else, that he earned his title and leadership with his own strength and nothing more. She huddled down so that only her eyes were visible as she wrapped herself up in his clothing. Ike turned and placed the cool, soaked cloth on her forehead, gently giving it a press to make sure it was laid soundly. The the sharp sound of Ike drawing his blade caught her attention; she turned to see him resting it against his arm, his gaze now staring outward; it was clear now that he was on guard. For hours Jill's eyes stared at Ike; her heart steadily racing in her chest with her body now shivering from anxiousness. His kindness, his strength, and his looks; it was all of these things that ran circles in Jill's mind as she continued to gaze at her savior.
"You know...if you get tired you can lay next to me," Jill offereed with a quaint meek tone in her voice. Ike turned and smile but shook his head all the same.
"I need to keep watch, even if it's all night. I would love nothing more than to spend a night with someone as pretty as you Jill but you aren't in very good shape to move and we could still be in danger," Ike sighed, returning his gaze out into the rain. Jill tried to sit up in her spot but immediately groaned and yelped as a sharp pain tore into her side. She immediatly laid back down, now twitching and wincing with regret of her hasty decision.
"You think...I'm pretty?" Jill whispered softly, too shy to ask it aloud. She didn't expect a reply since she felt her words were drowned out by the roaring rain, but Ike turned around and gazed in to her pained yet kind eyes.
"Anyone who would think otherwise doesn't matter. You do realize that several of the other women within the group are actually quite jealous of your youth and that dazzling red hair of yours. The way you fight in battle is very inspiring to a lot of the younger recruits and you have proven time and time again to be a valuable asset. Sure you lost yourself to your sorrows this battle, but it is because you are human and someone that cares for others with all of their heart. So yes, you are pretty Jill," Ike chuckled, gently rubbing her head before turning back out towards the rain. Jill's heart began to race in her chest, causing all her admirable emotions to shine like the sun. Her poor hazy eyes stayed on his frame, thoughts of what to do running in her mind.
"I'll never get another chance like this again. I can't let these wounds stop me...I have to show Ike how I feel..." Jill groaned attempting to sit up once again. This time she held her breath, holding back any sounds of pain that she truly felt so that she could make her move. The rain's downpour grew deafening as she slowly removed her shirt. It wasn't that she needed to get his attention, but she found it rather uncomfortable underneath all of his removed attire. She forced her arms and legs into a crawl, slowly moving along to prevent as much pain as possible from her wounds.
Ike sighed and closed his eyes; the cool, brisk mist that followed the rain's fall refreshed his body from its exaustion from the battle earlier. As loud and trampling as the rain was, his ears were quite sharp, picking up on the sound of shifting clothing from behind. He turned around to see what the stirring was, only to find a pair of arms reaching out and grasping him weakly. Ike shook his head, helping her maintain her hold so that she didn't fall flat on her face.
"Jill you shouldn't be moving, you'll only make your wounds wor..." Ike sighed, his face turning a bit red as he realized that her naked chest was now smooshed against his back. She began trembling as she used all of her strength to stay grasped onto him. Nuzzling against his back, she clearly had gained Ike's attention as his hands ran over hers.
"What are you doing Jill...if you keep moving like this you'll seriously hurt yourself and the last thing I need is you bleeding all over the place," Ike said, trying to remain calm and to keep his wits together. Jill began groaning as her lips grazed his skin at the back of his neck, his hands now pressing down on Jill's hands firmly.
"Ike...I think I'm in love with you...I've really liked you for some time now. Ever since you let me join the mercenaries, you've supported me and helped to make me the person I am now. I had developed feelings for you ever sense then. Being like this with you, right now in this moment, I realized that my feelings are more than just liking you...like you said I'm young, but, I can tell where my heart stands. Being alone with you like this leads me to believe that now was the time to finally let out my feelings. So Ike, just know that I love you and would do anything in my power to make you happy," Jill clenched onto him, her nails nearly digging into his skin as she refused to let go. Ike grasped a hold of her hands, removing them from his chest. He laid down his blade upon the ground before turning to her, his full attention gazing into her bright red face. He ran his thumb along the brim of her eye, catching tears that began to form and shifting them from her face.
"Are you sure its not just because I saved your life? I'm not doubting you, but you've never really showed off any interest in me since I've known you aside from kind smiles and chipper agreements. I do like you Jill, I really do, but...think clearly first before saying things like..." Ike's words were silenced as Jill weakly clung her body onto him, forcibly smooshing her quivering lips to his own. He paused for a moment, gazing into her teary eyes before curling her up in his arms. He gently slid his hand up behind her head beneath her flowing red locks, holding her still so that he could properly return her affectionate touch. Ike slowly moved Jill's trembling frame back down, laying her out as he had before. He parted his lips from hers, her whole expression displaying itself as helpless as it could be as it took a gaze outside.
"I...guess there won't be any troops lugging through this awful storm...so Jill...I would like to show you how I really feel as well. I guess it has been ever since we really discussed our lives with one another, how we shared our pain. It made me realize that I wasn't alone in my suffering. It wasn't so much that I didn't know others were and felt the same, but with you it felt like an incredibly strong attachment to the matter. So please, let me show you how you make me feel in return," Ike's face faintly grew red as he smiled down at her warmly.
Jill was on cloud nine as she watched her newly beloved move to her legs, gently brushing his hands over them in a messaging motion. Jill's toes curled with her hands clenching up, the feeling of Ike's strong hands making her lose herself in passion. She stared in utter disbelief as Ike slowly parted her legs, his lips dabbing up her inner thighs until reaching her freshly moist crotch. Her eyes grew anxious and desperate, pleading for Ike to continue on as his eyes caught sight of hers. He let a small smile curl across his mouth before slowly moving his face between her thighs. Jill let out a loud gasp as something firm and moist dug into her crevice, rubbing and prodding it curiously with its sudden movements.
"A-Ah..." Jill gasped, wincing from both pain and pleasure as Ike mashed his lips into her soaked crevice, moaning softly with every wince of her body. Jill entangled her fingers into Ike's short, sapphire hair, gently grasping a hold of it as he continued to pleasure her. He slowly dug his tongue all the way up her slit and against her sensitive pleasure, gently moving one of his sizeable fingers up inside of her.
"Ah...I-Ike...don't stop..." Jill whined, wrapping her legs around the back of his head as she began to press down with her firm grasp. Ike took it all in stride; he gently swirled his tongue around her clit, shifting over it again and again as he continued to plummet his finger deeper. Jill sudden cried out loudly, whining and panting soundly as her body tensed up around Ike. Ike closed his eyes, taking in her taste and scent as she came to a climax. Slowly, she released her from her deathly grasp, huffing heavily as she laid back and relaxed on the pile of clothes that Ike had shed for her.
"You have a very...strong odor and taste," Ike chucked softly, causing her to cover her face in embarassment as he wiped his mouth clean.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I haven't been taking care of myself too well down there lately..." Jill sighed, curling up into a ball as she winced in pain. Ike rolled his eyes and shook his, rolling her onto her back once more, removing her hands so that he could kiss her lovingly.
"I didn't say it was unpleseant did I?" Ike smirked at Jill whose face was now as red as her hair. He then gently kissed her forehead as the rustling sounds of his bottoms slid down his legs. Jill quickly covered her mouth, her eyes fluttering with her heart as she looked down his body, noticing that he was rather blessed in the masculine department. Ike snickered, gently tilting her chin up so that her eyes were forced to face his.
"My eyes are up here Jill," Ike said with a chuckle, causing Jill's eyes to avert from his nervously. Ike slowly eased forward as he reached down, gently pressing his fingers to the base of his member to guide it. Jill shivered and gasped as the head of Ike's member gently dipped into her snatch, causing her to tense up slightly.
"Are you sure you want to do this with me Jill? I won't make a move unless you say its OK," Ike said with a warm smile, brushing her bangs from her face once more to gaze into her gleaming eyes. She smiled back cheerfully, wrapping her arms around his neck to pull his lips to hers. Ike groaned and grunted as he slowly eased his prick inside of her, her outter lips and inner parts forcfully being stretched by his girth. She shook and cried into Ike's lips in pain, both her side and inside now throbbing.
"Are you alright? Sorry if I'm a little um...big. I hope it doesn't hurt too much," Ike sighed, stopping his advance. Jill clenched her teeth but formed a painful smile, pressing her forehead to his as she shook and shivered.
"G-Go ahead...I-I can handle it..." Jill grunted, her arms tightening around his neck as he slowly stuffed the rest of his sizeable member inside of her. Ike couldn't help but to gasp out loudly, her walls clenching his member tightly. Its throbbing from being stretched to far caused Ike to tremble himself, keeping it inside of her until she felt she was OK.
"It's...kind of a tight fit...do you need me to pull out? I can tell its really hurting you," Ike groaned, resisting the urge to move. Jill's tense body relaxed a bit, her cool, pale hands cupping his cheeks as she eased up her pained expression.
"N-No, I like you right where you are. Just...give me a minute OK?" Jill winced, smiling and winking at him affectionately as he her crevice began to grow accustomed to the feeling. After a minute or so, Jill kissed him gently on the lips, whispering for him to move.
He laid his hands out behind her head to cushion it as he made his move. She gasped and groaned in relief as he slowly eased his manhood out, waiting a moment before slowly stuffing it back in once more. This time Jill didn't make a grunt of pain; this time it was a gasp of pleasure.
"Does...that feel alright?" Ike said with a smile, staying in steady motion as his body began to heat up.
"Yeah...th-that feels amazing...please...give me more...Ike," Jill gasped and smiled, playfully licking at his lips. Ike seized her lips forcefully, continuing to take steady strokes in and out of her. Her tight, throbbing walls began to drive his senses up the wall, his body aching to tear her apart. He made a brash thrust into her, his sizeable member forcing her insides to stretch out roughly. She made a small scream inside of his mouth, her body tensing up and shaking in agony and lust.
"Oh sorry! Was that too much?" Ike said, but was silenced with her grasping a hold of his head. She stuffed is face into her breasts as she moved against his thrusts.
"No no, that was a good cry. I'm ready for whatever you want to do to me...I'm trusting you with my heart Ike, I know you won't harm me," Jill said with a loving smile, stroking his hair as he began to kiss against her bare chest. He began to pick up his pace, grasping onto her tightly to hold her still as her loud cries filled their little cavity. It was almost unreal; Jill nor Ike ever imagined of doing something like this out in the open, or at least not indoors. The sweet smells of the soaked plants and trees made them feel as if there was nothing more right in their lives.
"If you keep clenching me like that I won't be able to hold out much longer..." Ike's muffled voice resonated against Jill's shifting, bare chest. Ike found himself being forced into licking and sucking against her breasts, his every thrust into her causing her whole body to tremble uncontrollably.
"I-I can't take much more, I'm starting to get dizzy," Jill yelped wide smile, her eyes half closed and her cries out loud. Her pants and moans were starting to grow rather feral, which Ike seemed to take a strange fondness to. In response he lifted up her legs, putting them over his shoulders so that he had no more room of restraint. His muffled growls turned into yells as he shook and shifted, faster and faster without a stop in sight.
Ike's gasped for air as Jill let out a scream of pleasure, his face and mouth being smashed into her chest. Ike resistance finally broke, his member now twitching and throbbing wildly deep inside of her. He then gave her crevice one more hard slam, digging it iin a deeply as it could go as his yells broke free of soft prison. He tensed and winced, groaning as load after hot load of his seed flooded Jill's snatch. His occasional twitches gave Jill a warm smile, a testament of their love had now blossomed. Ike forced his body up, pinning her down tot he ground and latching his lips onto hers as his nectar filled her to the brim.
"Gods...Jill...I...I love you," Ike huffed and puffed, catching his breath to match up with his pounding heart. Jill gives his lips another peck, pulling his well toned body into a passionate hug as their lustful chills began to subside.
"It feels...really warm...I think...I'm going to pass out...," Jill gasped and groaned, clenching around his crotch one last time before he decided to pull out. The pain, anguish, and pure love that her body she went through wore her system out, her side now bleeding once more. Ike let out a sigh as he tore another line of fabric from his cape that had been tossed aside. He gently removed the previous wrap and carefully replaced it, her face showing signs of relief.
"You're tougher than you look," Ike said with a chuckle as he pulled her into a warm embrace. He shifted over so that he was near his piles of clothing then pulled it all overtop of them, keeping them nice and warm as the night came to pass. The sounds of gallops accompanied the next morning, causing Ike to sit up and let loose a vicious yawn. His eyes turned to the entrance of the cavity, only to see a smirking Titania gazing at the two of them.
"That must've been quite the rescue mission," She laughed softly, causing Ike's face to turn a faint shade of red. They both had a laugh about it on their way back to the barracks with Jill sleeping soundly after re-equipping her armor. That wonderous night would never be forgotten by the two of them, for better or for worse.
