A/N-Some of you may get confused between the two versions of Lucina, but I will give hints on which Lucina the story is talking about. I also have uploaded faster than intended, but uploads will still be slowing down. (-_-)


Six months after chapter 4….

"Hey," Robin said from a few feet away, "You ready?"

Lucina almost fell off the stool she was sitting on, putting a hand against the wall to recover her balance. "For what?"

Robin smiled. "To see the wall. While you were taking your time sleeping, we finished it."

Lucina nodded. "Let's see it then."

They both walked outside, the villagers all hard at work. Lucina cupped her hands around her mouth and yelled, "That's good for now! Take a break!"

Alexander, who had been passing stones up to his father, smiled gratefully. He finished moving the rock and leaned against the wall, closing his eyes. The only person who wasn't working was Lianna, who was constantly practicing with her bow and arrow.

"I've been here for seven months," Lucina stated, "And I can't believe how much progress we have made here."

Robin nodded. "I can't believe how much progress you have made."

Lucina shrugged. "All that I've been doing is training the others."

Robin shook her head. "You know what's going to happen soon, right?"

Lucina looked down. "I know, I'm just nervous."

"Any sane person would be." The mage stated. "The best you can do is keep resting, like what you have been doing. What names are you thinking of?"

"Sonia if it's a girl, Theo if it's a boy."

"Those are some nice names." Robin stated. "What training will you give them, once they're old enough?"

"I hope that I can find some sort of horse or pegasus around here. I'll probably train them with a bow and lance."

"Good choice."

Lucina absent-mindedly ran her hand over her stomach. "I just hope this supposed war won't affect him or her."

"Well, the worst case scenario is that you have to hide somewhere for the duration of it."

Lucina sighed. "I know. I just don't want to sit by the side and do nothing."

Robin smiled. "Believe me, you will have your hands full."


In the middle of a charred and destroyed wasteland, a crimson figure was sitting on a large throne.

"Ma'am!" A monster grunted from a few meters away. "What inscription do you want on your shield?"

"Put my name. Lucina, or, Crimson Queen." The girl said. "Also, bring me my bodysuit for the measurements."

"Your wish is my command…" The monster walked away.

After another servant brought the queenher requested clothing, Lucina (The evil version) stood up quickly and walked to the main barracks.

"Commander." She said as she walked into the large room. "How well is my armour going?"

"Good, but we lost the measurements. We will have to retake them." The male worker replied.

Lucina sighed and stretched out her arms. "Go ahead then."

As the crimson queen was being measured on her chest, waist, thigh, leg and neck, another person ran in.

"My queen!" She gasped. "The potion is ready! And it works!"

"Good." Lucina replied. "Keep making more. Also, bring me some water. I'm thirsty."

"At once, sister." The messenger said. "Will you want anything else?"

"I think I'm good. Also," The queen turned her head to look at her sister, "The other Lucina here doesn't have a sister, so don't get your hopes up about meeting one. You can spend the rest of your day with your son."

"Thank you." The messenger said, "You are the most kind."

The next day, Lucina was walking around her castle. Whenever she looked out upon the flat and desolate land around her, she would always watch the forest. It was so lush, compared to the area around it. The queen always knew that they would have to destroy it, but there was one problem.

The magical barrier around it preserved its life, for eternity.

It was really outrageous to her, but there is no use complaining about something you can't change.

Then she heard her sister laugh, the sound carried from a window nearby. It was probably the Queen's nephew and his mother, playing. The red-haired girl felt tears forming and wiped them away, trying to bottle up the emotions. She was a ruthless killer, but yet a child made her shed a tear?

She had always liked children, and that was why she gave her sister permission to have most of her days off. The queen gazed down at the bustling courtyard and smiled.

The spy was back.

"What news do you have?" The queen asked.

The spy took a deep breath and started to talk. "They have started building a wall around their village, and the blue-haired Lucina moved in with their tactitain. She has also been less active, and I think I know why."

"Why is that?"

"I believe she is expecting a child. I heard that she was expecting one in three-"

The queen cut off the messenger. "That's enough. I have new orders that will be told to all my warriors." She took a deep breath and let a tear of happiness seep out of her eyes. "We will not attack the village for five months."

"Why is that?" The spy asked, "Are you getting a soft spot for the villagers?"

The queen smiled. "No. To prove to you that I'm not weak, I have a job for you."

"What job is that?"

"You can feed the dragons."

"With what? I don't know what they should eat."

The queen looked back at him. "They will be eating you. Enjoy the last minutes of your life while you can."

The spy was led out of the room, screaming.


Lucina woke up from one of her naps covered in sweat. She had another nightmare, and the tank-top shirt she wore did little to cool her body temperature.

Robin was nearby going over some plans and organizing the house she shared with Lucina.

"Robin?" Lucina asked groggily, "Why are you here?"

"I noticed you yelling and tossing in your sleep. I tried to wake you up but you kept swatting me away. No bad feelings though, I know what's troubling you."

"What?"

"You're worried about yourself and your child." Robin sat down beside her friend. "It'll all be ok. I promise."

Lucina smiled and ran her hands through her long, blue hair. "I can't keep doing this anymore." She sighed, "I find that even half an hour of physical work leaves me exhausted. I don't know why, this isn't normal."

Robin thought for a few seconds. "I think it's because you're from another realm, but your child isn't. Because it isn't born yet, it could be developing differently than normal."

Lucina nodded. "That could be why."

Robin helped Lucina to her feet (Lucina's ankles had started to swell at this time.), and they both walked outside.

"It's hard to believe how much the village has changed." Robin stated.

Lucina nodded. "I agree. Aaron, Lianna and Alexander have also grown since I came here."

They stayed silent for a few minutes, then Robin spoke up. "I learned a new spell lately, and I think it will be of use to you."

"What does it do?"

"It lets me see the heat level on things. It's called something like Infrared-vision."

"Strange name." Lucina remarked. "So how would that be of use?"

"I could use it...on you." Robin explained, "It would enable me to see the child's gender."

Lucina smiled. "Maybe later."

Robin frowned. "You sure?"

"Positive." Lucina replied.

Robin was walking the ramparts of the wall, constantly checking for faults in the construction. She couldn't find any, and she had been doing this for days now. The reason why was pretty simple.

She was bored.

Everybody else seemed to be having so much adventure, but all she could do was plan more. Of course, she would be near Lucina lots of the time, but she needed some time alone. That's why, every day after Lucina fell asleep, she would teleport herself and spy on the castle.

Robin took out a sheaf of paper and started re-reading the information she had written down before.

"Strange." She remarked quietly, "All of their soldiers have been led back into the castle and away from the forest. Maybe they have found a way to enter the forest that requires their warriors to be recalled."

"Robin?" It was Lianna.

The tactitain turned, her white hair flying about her face. 'What?"

"Something is going on between my brother and Alexander. I don't think it's gonna be good!"

Robin jumped down from the walls, using a jump-boost spell to soften her landing. Together, the two girls dashed toward where Aaron and Alexander were fighting.

Aaron had a dark fog around his face, and his eyes were an ugly yellow.

"Stay back, Lianna." Robin warned. "Go to Lucina and protect her in case things get bad. I taught you where to shoot with that bow, and I gave you iron warheads for a reason."

Lianna, pale with worry, ran off to Lucina. After the young archer got into her house (Where Lucina was), Robin sighed with relief.

"Stop!" She yelled at Aaron, "Or I will have no choice!"

Aaron turned at her and snarled. "What will you do?"

"This." Robin drew a short knife-wand and took out a spell book. She started mumbling ancient words, a glow of energy surrounding her. There was a harsh light and Aaron fell to the ground, the young boy rolling around in pain.

"What did you do to him?" Alexander exclaimed. 'Is he dead?"

Robin shook her head. "He's not dead." Alexander sighed with relief. "I just cast a spell that killed the aura that was controlling him. This," She gestured to Aaron, who was still rolling on the floor, "Is Aaron having withdrawal."

Alexander nodded. "I owe you my life. If you didn't show up, he would've killed me."

Robin nodded. "Go get your cuts bandaged. I have work to attend to."

The boy nodded and ran off, leaving Robin alone.

She walked back up to the wall, returning to her observations.

"I might as well try the multi-realm spell again." She whispered. She muttered a few words and a small portal opened, slowly increasing in size. Once it was about the size of her, it changed color.

"Close!" She whispered to the portal. There was a flurry of motion and something...somebody, fell out of the portal.

It was a young adult with lime-green hair, dressed in a black coat. There was a golden pendant hanging from her neck, and she was holding a strange whip with chunks of metal attached to it.

"Who are you?" The newcomer asked.

"Robin. Who are you."

The new girl frowned. "Byleth."


And that is the end of this chapter! I know that this chapter was a bit shorter than my usual 2k words, but I didn't want to spoil Byleth's entry with more story afterwards.
