Lippy: w00t and general exultations, Chapter 3 is up. Now, as a note, the divide between the chapters here was rubbish, alright it was crap, so you might have to look back at the last chapter. Sorry!

Review Spotlights:

Chrono: Okay, I'll pretend I know what exposition means, if it does what I think it does. But there's a bit of "exposing" in this chapter, if you know what I mean…XD

Northernsword: Yeah, Ilia doesn't get much action in FE7, and I don't have FE6, I like Pegasus Knights so that's why I wrote this. And that's why it's slightly AU, because I think Ilia didn't put up any resistance, IIRC.

GrayDove: Methinks more reasons are in here, so ti wasn't just the good-looking part. It's like a Raven x Priscilla in Chapter 2, except they aren't siblings. It's probably not explained too well, like somebody. Can't remember who though…

My English teacher always tells that to me, but I don't really see the point. I'm too lazy!

And I listen to you so when I am mean about yours, you have to do something about ti!

Anyway, I don't own Fire Emblem, I don't have the sheer brainpower to make it, or even to conceive it, so full marks to Nintendo and IS. You guys rule!

Onwards!

"I remember. Anyway, you're my new tactician. Can you ride a pegasus, or will I have to teach you?" Fion asked, looking at Jon.

"I've never tried, so I think I'll need teaching." Jon replied.

"Ok then, let's get you a pegasus!" Fion said, walking towards the pens, where they keep the spare pegasi.

"Let's see, there's Kiker, Mentir, Lippy…" Fion mumbled, looking at the pegasi.

"Lippy?" Jon asked, "That's my nickname!"

"No-one can ride Lippy, not after his owner was killed by a stray arrow from training, but it seems too bizarre to be a coincidence. I'll let you try to ride him, but be careful, if you can't, get straight off him." She saddled up Lippy, and handed the reins to Jon. He clambered up onto Lippy, who bucked, then settled down, as Jon whispered into his ear. Lippy flew up, circling the base, swooping low, across the grass, and then spiralling off to one side. Fion jumped on Bob, and chased after them.

"I think it's safe to say that you can ride him!" Fion shouted to Jon, who was laughing, and whooping as Lippy dove and rose, riding the wind.

"I think so too!" Jon shouted, his hair ruffling in the wind, "Has anybody told you how beautiful you look, with your hair streaming out behind you?"

"Many people!" Fion shouted, "Now bring Lippy back down, and see if you can actually control him."

"OK!" Jon shouted, leaning forward, and whispering into Lippy's ear, who slowed, and swooped low, landing smoothly and gracefully. Fion followed him, s Bob swooped low, and landed, but not as gracefully as Lippy had. Bob walked net to Lippy, of her own accord, and nuzzled against Lippy, poking her nose into Lippy's ear.

"How sweet, Bob, or should I say Bobette, is in love with a certain Pegasus." Jon laughed.

"I wonder whether pegasi can understand what we're feeling, as well." Fion wondered.

"I'm sure once you get to know them, like you and Bob have, they can sense their master's mood" Jon replied, looking at Fion, "Why?"

"Just wondering whether they're in love because we're in…." Fion blushed bright red, dismounted, and ran off to her room.

I wonder…Jon thought. Is she really in love, like last time? Jon ushered Lippy and Bob back into the pen, and followed Fion.

Fion walked back to her room, thinking.

Why d'you do that Fion? You have a knack of embarrassing yourself at the worst possible moments…

Fion reached her room, opening the door, and flinging herself onto the bed, devising tactics she could run through with Jon, while she got undressed, ready for bed.

Jon followed Fion, knocked on her door, and walked in. He saw Fion's naked body, stopped, stared and walked back out again.

"Come in!" Fion shouted, quickly huddling under her duvet covers.

Jon walked in.

"Are you alright, I thought that you might have…" Jon asked, stopping, and staring again. Fion had discarded her covers, revealing her naked body.

"What's the matter Jon? Never seen a naked woman before?" Fion asked, wiggling her hips.

"Buh…buh…" Jon gibbered. Fion pounced onto Jon, pulling him into Fion's bed, grabbing at his clothing, and pulling it off his body, one by one. Jon pulled off his top, and his trousers, while Fion squealed, grabbing at his underwear. She struggled, and then finally got it off. Covering the both of them, Jon pulled the bed covers over the bed, as Fion started kissing his neck and his head.

This was unexpected! Well, she obviously is.

The next morning, Jon woke up, with Fion lying on top of him, sleeping soundly.

What happen…oh yes..

Jon remembered Fion's seduction, and quietly, picked Fion up, kissed her on the forehead, and laid her down on her bed, and went to go and get dressed, ready to train with Lippy.

Fion woke up, groped for Jon, couldn't feel him, then woke up. She sat up, bleary eyed, and went to the curtains, opening them, to find Jon and Lippy soaring around the base.

Typical. Boys with their toys…

Fion got dressed, washed, and went outside, to get Bob, and train with Jon.

When she got on Bob, and flew up towards Jon, she noticed something. The silhouette of a wyvern flying high, above the base.

A Bern scout. Great.

Fion dove to the ground, running to the armoury to get a Javelin, which she could use to down the wyvern. She grabbed 2, and tossed one to Jon.

"It's a Bern scout! Kill it, quick, before it can escape!" Fion shouted to Jon. He nodded, and flew towards the silhouette. Fion joined him, and they both threw the Javelins at the same time. The wyvern plummeted to the ground, landing with a splat. Fion sped down, and wrestled the rider to the floor.

"You're now a potential prisoner of war, if Bern declares war on Etruria. What are you doing here? Tell me!" Fion shouted.

"King Zephiel wanted me to assess Ilia's defences, to see whether it was an option, to use as a staging platform for his assault on Etruria. And if I don't return, he'll think that's a hostile action, and invade, with all of Bern's might behind us! And since my wyvern's now in a puddle on the floor, it seems I can't get back now, can I?" The rider said, looking up at Fion, with a gleam in her eye. Jon landed as well, coming up to them, and kissing Fion on the cheek.

"Looks like you'll need me after all!" He said, "Prepare the troops! Bern's a coming!"

Fion drew her dagger, and slit the rider's throat, then ran inside, and triggered the alarm.

Yes, that chapter was kind of the reason why I gave it the rating.

And even more dialogue! Sorry 'bout t-gets shot

But OMGWTF? Bern's attacking! Action? In Lippy's fic?

It's true. Anyway, read & review! (Yay for rhyming)

And the last line of dialogue (Bern's a coming) is meant to be that way. So don't complain.
