Review Last Chapter: The group arrived in Baton, where Lady Ada had trouble-finding members to help her play a game with the pirates. Still sorry for what he did, Sain ran all over the place to look for Rebecca and found her at last. With a bit of jealousy he faked a stomachache and found out that Rebecca had one. At the end, Sain found out that he might just be a dad.

I hate myself. I was almost done with this chapter when I deleted the whole thing by accident. Just my luck. That's why I updated it so late. Great. Now, the details are slipping. I try the best I can to remember. Also, note to Priscilla's fans: I do not hate Priscilla. I hate Ninian, but I do not hate Priscilla. I just thought it would be interesting to make her evil since I found a story that made Serra evil and not Priscilla. So what the heck? I'm so sorry it took so long to update! Forgive me!

Goddess of the Northern Breeze: About your comparison between Priscilla and the popular girls at your school. lol. I have a big science project coming. I am going to try to put both that and fanfics on my to do list. I'm a last minute person as well.

Michelle: You should get an account. Then, I would read your fanfics.

Sixclaws: Let's see if your theory is true or not.

Always the special thanks to my other reviewers. I am not going to mention everyone or it takes too long. But you know who you are. Thanks! I guess everyone like long chapters so I am going to keep writing them! Yay!

I hate writing not owning Fire Emblem. It's just too sad. But it's what you have to do, right? "I do not own Fire Emblem or any of its characters. My tactician name is Ada. Affinity- Fire".

Chapter XI: Baby Shower?

Sain woke up and shook his head from the fall he had earlier. His head and stomach hurts now. He looked up to see the three mages surrounded him and waited him to awaken. Sain got up and looked around the room and realized what just happened earlier.

"You guys did not tell anyone, did you???" asked Sain anxiously to see the three mages exchanging glances to each other nervously. Sain sighed.

"Let me answer my own question. Everyone knows except for Rebecca." Sain was tired now as Lucius started patting him on the back. Canas and Erk were feeling bad for telling the entire camp but this was just too big of a news to keep their mouths shut. Canas decided to change the subject.

"Erk, where in the world did you get that book?" Canas asked, trying to turn the attention away from Sain's situation and into Erk's. Erk turned a bit reddish.

"Well…Serra told me that if anything happened to her that shouldn't happened… that I should know about it and take responsibility." That turned out to be the wrong words to speak of in front of Sain. Sain is now sobbing hard now, burying his face in his arms. How can he not be single in one night???

Then, without warning, the boat shook hard. So hard that everyone in the room fell on each other. Erk was now on top of Canas while Lucius and Sain were on top of Erk. The four got up quickly and ran outside to meet up with Lady Ada. It looks like they were going to prepare for another battle. Erk, Lucius, Canas, and Sain were the last to went outside. Sain peeked a look at Rebecca, who looked awfully happy like always.

Like always Lady Ada asked for volunteers first before she started choosing people to fight. And like always Rebecca was the first to volunteer. But not like always, Lady Ada returned with a big frown. "Rebecca, you are in no condition to fight. You should go and rest. Ask Sain if you need anything." With that, Lady Ada left a confused Rebecca.

Sain knew he was doom. Even Lady Ada knew about him and Rebecca! Sain took this opportunity and grabbed Rebecca's arm and pulled her out of the battle and into their room. "Rebecca, honey, you should rest. You should get rest for the both of you." Sain said as he immediately left Rebecca alone in her room.

"Honey? Both of you?" Rebecca asked out loud but found Sain gone and her lonely inside her own room. She was as cheerful and healthy as ever. Why is everyone acting so nice to her? Is there something going on around here? Rebecca soon yawned and decided to go to sleep.

Rebecca woke up to find out that it was morning. Rebecca groaned loudly since she slept through dinner and now is terribly hungry. Rebecca looked over at Sain's bed. It was empty. Rebecca got up and brushed her hair quickly. When she turned around, she can't believe what she was seeing. Sain was studying! He did care about her feelings and hobbies after all!

"Sain…you do know that even if you passed the test, you will share a tent with Canas." Rebecca said as Sain immediately looked up from his cookbook. He put it down and cried.

"But…but you said you would accept me!!!"

"Yes, but you can't be my tent partner forever you know. I asked permission to be by myself. If you failed this test, you will move to Kent's tent instead and tried to study harder. Besides, I would not accept you." Rebecca explained as Sain gave her an annoyed face. Rebecca laughed. Then, Rebecca checked the time. She was late to cook breakfast for everyone!

"Sain, I have to go now. See ya later!" Rebecca announced as she tried to walk out the door. But Sain blocked the door and smiled broadly at Rebecca.

"You're not going anywhere without eating your breakfast!" Sain said as he pushed Rebecca to a seat and grabbed a hand-made breakfast he made just for her. Rebecca cannot believe her eyes. He made breakfast for her!

"Just this once. Sain, go study! The test is in two days! Remember to take out the trash!" commanded Rebecca as she ate her breakfast happily.

"She's not even my wife yet, but she commands me already like I'm her obedient husband." Mumbled Sain under his breath as he started to look through Rebecca's moneybox on her shelf. Rebecca instantly noticed this.

"I heard that! What are you doing to my money box?" She asked madly. Sain knew he was caught as he instantly grabbed her gold, stuffed it in his pockets, and ran out the door.

"I pay you back!!!" Rebecca could hear him shouted from outside the door. Rebecca crossed her arms madly and looked at her feet. She was so mad he took unfair advantage of her good mood. Rebecca just shook this off and walked outside.

Not only is Sain still outside, but he was surrounded by a group of ladies and Erk. Rebecca never noticed so many ladies group up in one spot besides before a battle. There were Lady Lyndis, the Sacaen noble in which swordplay is in no compare, Lady Ada, whose tactician skills never failed them before in battle, Serra, her best friend, Ninian, the new lady found in a boat yesterday, Florina, the shy childhood friend of Lyndis, and Erk, who is always with Serra and getting better at being a bit more socialize.

All the ladies shouted at the same time, "Baby Shower!!!"

Rebecca looked at all the ladies and asked, "Baby shower? Who's having a baby?" Lady Ada and Lady Lyndis smiled in approval. Serra and Florina giggled. And Ninian just stood there and nodded.

Rebecca ran over to Serra and shook her shoulders lightly. "Serra??? You are pregnant??? Erk has been a bad boy, hasn't he???" Erk and Serra's cheeks turned red in unison. Serra got out of this trance first and smiled sweetly and evilly at the same time as well.

"I would never let Erk touch me! You know I'm a cleric! But you…Rebecca, have been busy…" Serra said, as Rebecca is catching on to what is happening in this hallway.

To make matters worst, Erk peeped up. "Sain, when is the bachelor's party? All the guys wanted to know!" This was when Rebecca finally caught on what's happening.

"WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT????????????"

Now, all the ladies have left with disappointments while Erk is still waiting outside the door. Rebecca and Sain were now sitting deadly quiet in their room. Rebecca was sitting on her bed, opposite of Sain, who was also sitting on his bed. Rebecca was in total silence while Sain was just there, trying not to look at Rebecca's eyes.

"Never do that again." Rebecca said slowly and clearly enough to show that she really meant it. Sain, as clueless as ever, started to sigh in relief. No shouting. No screaming. None of that.

"Well, Rebecca. I just wanted to take responsibility. This is a pretty nice joke, huh?" That was a mistake as Rebecca started to burst out shouting again. Sain was always getting himself into these situations. He regretted it so.

"A joke??? You embarrassed me in front of the whole group! I never had been so embarrassed in my life! You don't assume stuff like that! Just because I get headaches from lack of sleep, stomachaches from lack of food, and complaining when you give me lame excuses, doesn't mean I'm pregnant!!! You are the most irresponsible noble knight of Caelin I ever seen!!!" Rebecca shouted her lungs out when Erk decided to knock on the door.

"You can come in." Rebecca answered as she slowly started to regain her lack of breath. She was still mad at Sain for his irresponsible actions. Erk walked in and dropped off a package in Rebecca's arms. Rebecca eyed this package for a moment.

"Whose it from Erk?" Rebecca asked curiously as she started to examine the package, wondering what's inside. Erk handed Rebecca a letter and left the room.

Rebecca read the letter quietly as Sain moved in and read it over her shoulders. It was from Raven. It read:

Dear Rebecca,

I know how much you enjoy cooking and hopefully you still do. I enjoy cooking as well when you taught me quite a bit. I know you are very awesome at cooking but no one is ever perfect at anything. The best part of being good at something is always trying to be better at it and getting closer to perfection. This is the reason why I think this cookbook will come in handy for you in the future. Enjoy.

Love,

Raven

Rebecca now stared at the package in her lap. Rebecca tried really hard not to be too excited and opened the package with shaking hands. Just when she unwrapped the package finished, she started jumping up and down. She cannot believe what she was holding. With curiosity, Sain grabbed the item out of Rebecca's hands.

"Rebecca, it's just a cookbook…" Sain commented irritably. How can anyone get overexcited over this?

"Not just any cookbook, Sain! I swear... you don't know anything, do you? It's the best cookbook in the world, only 10 copies were ever made and one is in my hands right now!" Rebecca said, as she started jumping again. Sain was even more annoyed. Raven is trying to steal her heart with a lame cookbook, what kind of a trick is that?

Rebecca finally stopped jumping and looked at the time. If she doesn't hurry, she will miss cooking lunch for everyone as well. Rebecca put the cookbook on her desk and immediately head for the door. Sain didn't try to stop her this time. "Sain, you better not do anything to my cookbook or else! Start packing our stuff already, I can hear the boat stopping." Rebecca ordered as she left the room.

Sain started packing up all the stuff around him when he eyed the cookbook again. He quickly read the title and found the subtitle quite interesting… It says:This cookbook is made under the finest condition that you can even use this cookbook to cook! Satisfactory guaranteed.

Sain got the best idea. He can use this cookbook to study for the test soon. This is supposed to be the best cookbook there is. Sain started reading the pages quickly because it was a long book and he doesn't have enough time to read it all slowly. Sain made a big mistake. He read the pages so quickly that the pages started falling out. He was too careless to think about how old this book is and how he should treat books more carefully.

"Oh shoot. What should I do? The pages are falling out. Rebecca is going to kill me for sure!" Sain said in a worried tone. He quickly stuff the fallen pages back in and dump the books in the packed stuff. Now he has to find Rebecca and tried to keep her away from the cookbook as much as possible. He walked outside the door with the packed stuff.

Outside, no one was outside except for one person. That person was Wil. It seems that everyone have left the boat already to go ashore. Wil was carrying his and Florina's stuff as he started to leave as well. Sain ran to Wil to catch up.

Wil jumped to see Sain but then said. "Guess what??? I have been assigned to be the Delivery Boy! I will now deliver info to everyone in our group!" Sain couldn't help but burst out laughing. This was too hard to believe. Wil was so happy because of this?

Wil did not take this so well though. "You think it's funny, huh? Well, I guess I won't tell you all the gossips about the ladies around here." This hit Sain for he of all people will do anything to get a girl especially flirting. Sain realized his mistake and now arming Wil as if he was his best friend.

"Wil, old buddy, what about the ladies?" Sain asked casually.

Wil took advantage of this. "What's in it for me?"

Sain took out a handful of gold he took from Rebecca's moneybox earlier as Wil's eyes started to shine brightly. "Now, tell me everything about the ladies you know of."

Wil smiled broadly and started talking quite quickly, "Rumors say that Lady Lyndis and Lord Eliwood had been sparring in the morning every day. It seems those two are very fond of each other, and besides they share the same tent. Lady Ada and Lord Hector seems to be having a special relationship as well. Lord Hector can be caught blushing every time he's around Lady Ada. Rebecca is going to have lunch with Raven today as thanks." This was all Sain needed to hear as he started running out the hallways. Sain was not going to let Raven take his Rebecca away. He will not allow it.

Chapter 11 done. A short chapter in my opinion, but don't worry. I promise the next one will be up soon and long. Fiora will join the group next chapter. Raven, Priscilla, Sain, and Rebecca will meet each other the next chapter. I wonder how this will turn out. Check the next chapter to find out. Remember to R & R, I appreciate it!
