Man, it feels great to win this tournament! I can't believe that Ylisstol will finally be receiving help, now that I have given East-Khan her power back.

Although... Robin's still dug deep into my chest, and her face pressed against my pecks felt so soft. The rest of the spectators have left the balcony since the tournament was already finished.

"Hey, Robin~" I playfully called her name and her cute eyes stared right at my soul before backing away.

"I'm sorry, I was just uncomfortable with the audience cheering out our names in victory." I see. Robin's not the type of lady that likes massive attention. She does seem really cute when she held me tight on that hug, when the rowdy crowd chanted our names.

*CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!*

Flavia enters the fray with a round of applause, she seemed rather joyful at this moment.

"Well fought Prince Chrom, and you too Robin. You both magnificent warriors have my respect."

"Perhaps more to the point, you have your alliance. I will provide Ylisse with the soldiers she needs." Wow. Flavia went straight forward with her announcement.

"Truly? Thank you, East-Khan." I replied in a gleeful tone.

"No, no. I should be the one thanking you! It feels like ages since I've held full power. Come, my new friends! Tonight, we celebrate! Onwards, my new friends!" Then off goes the new reigning cheerful Khan, with a swift motion she left in a hurry to celebrate.

"Well... She looked pretty ecstatic after our victory." Robin added.

"Bah! Any excuse for a party and Flavia jumps on it..." A deep, masculine voice came from behind, with his loud stomping footsteps are heard immediately, causing Robin and I to turn around.

The well toned, bald man stood tall, with a black eyepatch covering his left eye, with a thick coat of white fur around his neck. I'd say he's bulky with his built, as he exposes his pecks. I wonder if I do the same, would Robin stare at my 'guns' impressed with drool seeping out of her mouth?

"Pardon me, but have we met before?"

"Ha! Not yet, until now my boy. Just to let you know, I'm the West-Khan you so rudely removed from power! You and you're twin tailed girlfriend over there took down my champions with ease."

"G-g-g-GIRLFRIEND!?" Robin stammered in shock with a bright blush brightening up, on the contrary I find this hilarious.

"Ah! This well refined lady isn't yours? Well my boy, you've should've seen the women at the balcony, they're swooning all over your moves during your battle against Marth." Apparently, the West-Khan is saying that I'm popular among the females.

"I thought for sure I'd picked the best warriors for my team." With his arms clasped around behind his back.

"What do you know about him and his brother?" I asked curiously.

The West-Khan scratches his bald, shiny head before collecting his thoughts for an answer. "You're asking about "Marth" and "Alm"? Bah! I bet they're just a bunch of young fighters looking to experience an exciting thrill. All I know is that they he turned up one eve, made a deal and knocked my old champion out cold." But it didn't seem that way, when we fought them. My body felt that they were trying to hold back against us while giving their all, during the tournament.

"It was love at first sight, and I'm generally too old for such things! Baha! Anyway, they're both gone now. Alm carried Marth on his shoulder and fled, whimpering like two puppies the moment the tournament ended." The West-Khan had a look of disbelief, realizing that his new found champions had left him. I felt uneasy, picturing both Alm and Marth limping away in pain. I would've kindly offer them healing with Lissa's staff at least, but it's too late now.

"They're so dark and mysterious, especially Marth..." Lissa sighs and closes her eyes with a big smile on her face, is my sister dreaming about Marth!?

"From the sound and looks of it, Marth now has a fangirl." Robin giggles, as she teases Lissa.

"Well, I mean, c'mon... He IS sort of dreamy, isn't he?"

"And YOU'RE sort of dreaming!" I shouted back with retaliation.

"Yowch! Lighten up, Big Brother. I was just kidding. It's not like, you're ALSO dreaming of Robin during bed!" Lissa teasingly winks at me, and her comment made me blush without knowing.

I clenched my teeth in embarrassment and I was ready to defend myself, thinking of a fantastic comeback that'll shame Lissa for amusement. Eventually Frederick made two loud fake coughs, grabbing our attention.

"Milord? Milady? If this fascinating discussion is over, we'd best return home. The exalt will want this news of our new alliance immediately." He informs us with seriousness painted on his face, the great knight has an unbelievable patience.

"Right as always Frederick." I acknowledged Frederick's comment and we were about to go.

"Hold, boy. Before you go, I have a little present for you."

I looked high and low, searching for wrapped gift that the West-Kahn might be hiding, instead a tall frowning brunette walked towards us.

"..." He's not much of a talker?

"Since we've never met before, my boy. My name is Basilio, the West-Khan. PREVIOUS reigning Khan, that you already knew ha!" About time, the West-Khan told his name.

"This gift right here, is my previous champion. His name is Lon'qu. Not much for talking, mind you, but he's peerless with a sword. As good as Marth and Alm, in my mind. To be honest, I can't figure out how two youngsters bested him so quickly."

That quite a feat for Alm and Marth to dethrone the precious champion. On the other hand, this former champion's a giant! The brunette with a bedraggled hairstyle stood taller than Frederick and Basilio. Not to mention Lissa's head could only measure up to Lon'qu's chest, even though my sister's already tiny. I let out a tiny chuckle, having an imagination of Lissa as a gnome, looking up at a giant.

Lissa

"WHAAA! Marth beat him? But he looks so big and strong..." How could've those two defeat Lon'qu? He appears to be cool or should I say 'Lon'cool.' Yet, he has the looks of a ferocious, unstoppable warrior. So how did they best him so easily?

I cheerfully approached Lon'qu until he barked. "Get away, woman!" Lon'qu instinctively moves a few feet away as he retaliated, making me stop right at my tracks.

"Hey! Wh-what did I say?!" I shouted in confusion, though I gotta say his attitude is pretty hot.

"Ba ha ha! Let's just say that ladies tend to put Lon'qu on edge. Nonetheless, he is capable. Perhaps he even has the makings of a khan. Consider him West Ferox's contribution to the Ylissean cause." Basilio laughed at how at the scene between Lon'qu and I. "Hmph! If he can't stand women, then he won't be able to experience love in his life and he'll remain forever single!" I closed my eyes, crossed my arms and turned my face the other way from Lon'qu.

Chrom

"So Lon'qu, You have no objections at joining me?"

"He gives orders. I stab people to death. I think our roles are crystal clear." He let out a gruff tone in his reply. Well~ someone is straight forward.

"Chrom! If I may, we should have Lon'qu look after your sister at all times, in and out of the battlefield." Robin proposes, but I don't understand why.

"Why is it Robin?"

"It's to exercise his nervousness around women, and Lissa does need a bodyguard around her. Who knows when the next Risen pops outta the sky and assault her." Robin has an excellent idea, but even if it puts tons of stress on Lon'qu, he will eventually grow up on women surrounding him. I'll give Lon'qu the order later.

"And Frederick. As much as we I want to bring the good news back to Emmeryn, we should take a break and celebrate our victory. For what it's worth, we haven't had proper rest since we've left."

"Very well milord, let's take our time for the being. But I advise that we march back to the capital in three days, we can't afford to lose more time." Frederick agreed to my request.

Robin

Every single warriors of the East-Khan and the Shepherds dances to the loud music, while they drank alcohol in ecstasy. Celebrating this sweet victory of the power once more acquired, they feasted like wild animals. Especially Vaike and Stahl, who had an eating competition in which the 'Viridian Knight,' won an unfair game. Lissa on the other hand, tried drinking alcohol while Lon'qu kept taking her drinks away for being underage. As for me? I'm just here outside the staring at the stars, on the balcony with the cold wind breezing through my coat.

My heart tore itself apart, breaking into tiny pieces when I saw how much of the Shepherds celebrated together like a family... They have each other's trust and I'm just a nobody with no memories. I wish I could have meet my family, my mother and father at least. Deep down in their hearts they must be really worried, that their daughter is currently missing and fighting for the Prince of Ylisse.

"Robin, are you not enjoying the party?" A voice came from behind and I turned around to see Chrom.

"No. I'm just uncomfortable around everyone at the moment..."

"Why is that Robin? You can tell me anything." Chrom puts his hands on my shoulders, comforting me.

"I-it's just that everyone is like a family together, and I'm just a nobody with no memories." My voice is starting to shake, Chrom notices this and hugged me from behind, making me blush.

"Listen well Robin, you're part of the Shepherds. That means you're a family to us and we look out for each other, I won't let you feel down. If you do, I'll be there to pick you up."

"Thank you Chrom, I really appreciate it..." I opened his grip on me and turned around o hug him back.

"I'm going to sleep now, catch me tomorrow morning if you need anything to discuss, okay?" I gave him a smile before I walked back in to the East-Khan's palace.

Chrom

"I can't believe it! S-she hugged me." Calm down Chrom, it's just a hug. It's nothing special. I took a couple of deep breaths before joining the Shepherds back for the party.
