Chris: Ahem, well, here's the next little canon coupling story. You know. Like Choices, but with a different character. And…Because of the people who voted, or not…It's Sain's turn to shine.

Votes:

Hector - 1 (Technically, it's not a vote, but his name was there.)
Erk - 1
Sain - 3

So the readers have spoken! So Sain it is. And because I just feel like it, Sain will be getting an ending for every eligible woman in the camp! Yep, yep. Enjoy! And just in case you don't know how the eligible women are…

Eligible Women: Lyn, Florina, Rebecca, Fiora, Priscilla, Serra, Farina, Ninian, Nino

Ineligible Women: Vaida (No chance.), Isadora (She's already too much in love with someone else, even if they have supports.), Louise (She's married…), Lucius (He's a guy. Please, please don't write any Sain x Lucius fics. I will hunt you and kill you. Well, not literally.), Karla (A toss-up, really. If enough people want it, read: 1, then I'll make one.)

Chapter 1: The Quest to End All Quests

"It is a beautiful day today, isn't it, Kent?" Sain breathed in the morning air, releasing it in a sigh of happiness. "My boon companion! Today is the day I embark on the quest to end all quests!"

"And what would that be?" Kent muttered tiredly. The two cavaliers had risen when dawn had broken for their morning routine and exercises. The orange-haired cavalier was in no mood to deal with Sain's bantering at this hour.

"It is my life's quest! Its purpose cannot be just given freely! You must guess first!" Sain said dramatically, looking at his friend.

"Sigh…Very well." Kent shrugged. "Uh…You'll remember where we're supposed to be patrolling?"

"Of course not!" Sain scoffed. "What kind of life quest is that?"

"Then…You're going to leave women alone for a month?"

Sain placed a hand over his heart. "Kent! How could you say such a thing? It is…unthinkable that I would ever commit such a heinous deed!"

Kent smiled ruefully. "Yes…I guess it was too much to hope…"

"Now, my boon companion! You must continue guessing!" Sain said.

"Fine, fine…Uh…You're going to train until you can beat Wallace?"

"NO!" Sain bellowed. "Kent, Kent! You are so far off the mark, it scars me deep within my eternal soul! How can you, my boon companion, not know what my life's quest would be? It shames me to realize it!"

"Well…I did have one other guess, but I was hoping it wasn't true…"

"What do you mean, my friend?" Sain looked at Kent questioningly.

"I mean that I would rather not see you undertake the quest I have in mind." Kent sighed. "But knowing you, it's probably true. Your life's quest is to hit on every girl in this camp, isn't it?"

"Very close, my partner! Very close!" Sain laughed and clapped his friend on his back. "But alas, I have already completed that quest! No!" Sain pointed to the sun. "My life's quest is to get married to one of these lovely ladies and be together with her forever!"

"Um…" Kent scratched his head. "That's noble and all…But do you think it's going to work? I mean…How are you going to settle down with just one girl? I would think you would marry all of them…Even though that's extremely frowned upon."

"My dear Kent….I can, and I will settle down with one girl! The girl with the beauty of the fragrant rose! The girl with the beauty of the rising sun! The girl with the charms of a…uh…a girl, I guess. The girl who is both energetic and demure!"

"Aren't you asking a little too much?" Kent cocked an eyebrow at his brown-haired friend. "After all, everyone would want a girl like that."

"That's why it is my life's quest!" Sain exclaimed, like it was the most obvious thing in the world. "I have compiled a notebook filled with facts about our girls! And I can say that most everyone here has all of the attributes I seek, more or less!"

"Even Serra?"

"Even Serra!" Sain continued on his speech. "While she might lack in the…nicer aspects of a girl…She still retains some good qualities!"

"…I…see…" Kent said skeptically. "Who do you have in that book?"

"Everyone!" Sain said joyously. "It has taken me many, many days to compile this information!" He opened the notebook and pointed to the first page, which housed information on one of the girls, namely Priscilla. It truly was a marvel, complete with a hand-drawn portrait and information ranging from height and likes to breast size. Kent was slightly disgusted by the fact that Sain had somehow attained this information.

"How'd you get people's breast sizes? I didn't think you were that…bad." Kent wrinkled his nose.

"Oh, Matthew gave it to me. I asked him to help me dig up some information about them and he threw the sizes in as a bonus for some reason." Sain shook his head. "Matthew charged a lot, but I believe it's worth it! Although I still am confused as to how he got the numbers…"

Three days ago

Matthew walked up to Priscilla, smiling cheerfully. "Hey Priscilla! Can I ask you some questions?"

"Um…Sure." Priscilla looked quizzically at the thief.

"This is for an important survey that Lord Hector has charged me with." Matthew held up a piece of paper. "He says that I need to find out some important…figures in the army."

"Well…Why not?" Priscilla said.

"Um…Please don't hurt me for this…But I need to know your…ahem…breast size. Please don't hurt me!" Matthew cringed, shielding himself from the blows he knew would be coming. How he would know, you may ask? Well, that's because he already got hit by Lyn and Farina for asking. Strangely enough, they still gave him the number, but not before punching him in places that were best left unpunched. Like the head…The stomach…The kidney…The spleen…And that other place…

"Don't worry Matthew. I won't hurt you." Priscilla said reassuringly. "Of course…If Lord Hector gets hurt in battle…I might accidentally lose my staves…"

"Ah…Yes, I understand." Matthew nodded. "But…um…the number?"

"Oh…Right." Priscilla grabbed the sheet and wrote the number down. "There you go. Now time to see someone…" The red-haired troubadour left, muttering to herself.

Matthew watched Priscilla leave and breathed a sigh of relief. So far, his ploy of saying that it was for a survey was succeeding. He still didn't know why they were giving him their breast sizes, but I guess they assumed it would be for a good enough cause.

"Eh, oh well. Sain's gonna pay me so much more for this information…I could retire and live my life out in glory…Heheheheh." Matthew chuckled to himself. Sometimes being a spy had more benefits than what met the eye. Namely blackmail. And of course, spying.

He could only hope that Hector would be too flabbergasted to realize it was probably Matthew that had done the whole thing.

"Uh huh…Right, well, good luck with your quest." Kent said, getting distracted by the information in the book. "Did Matthew get all of that?"

"Yep! Well, other than some tidbits that I figured out by myself." Sain said, shutting the book. "Now, I must go on my quest!"

"Sain, we have morning watch! Nobody's awake at this time!"

"Oh…Right." Sain stopped himself. "Wait! I do know someone who would be up at this time!" He brightened. "The lovely Fiora! She has the watch before us, right? So she should be awake waiting for us to relieve her!" Sain mounted his horse. "Come on, Kent! Away!"

"Sigh…Of all the people I had to be stuck with…" Kent muttered to himself as he mounted his horse and followed Sain.

---

"Took you guys long enough." Fiora said sourly. "I've been waiting for twenty minutes. I know I'm just a mercenary, but I'd like to be relieved in time."

Kent started to apologize, but Sain cut him off.

"I'm sorry, my lovely flower, but circumstances beyond my control wrested me away from your awaiting arms! It shames me in my very heart that I have left you out here in the cold without some way to warm you! If only my love could warm you just like it does to me!" Sain clasped Fiora's hand and kissed it.

"Uh…" Fiora slowly removed her hand. "Thank you…I guess…" She looked over Sain's head at Kent, who shrugged and sighed. "Well, just as long as you aren't late next time." Fiora walked away.

"I will never leave you alone again, my beautiful sparrow!" Sain said, waving his hand in farewell. "You will always stay in my heart!"

Kent smacked Sain on the back of the head. "Come on, Romeo, we've got a job to do."

"Right, my companion!" Sain leaped on his horse. "If only to protect the girls with the horrors of war, I shall patrol at my finest today!"

Kent sighed again and shook his head. Of all the people to be partnered with…

---

"Ah, that was a delightful patrol, wasn't it, my boon companion?" Sain said cheerfully.

"It was only beautiful because you saw three girls today…" Kent muttered under his breath.

"Not only did I spot the beauteous Fiora in the stables, I saw the lovely Farina, the demure Ninian, and the shy Florina! Elimine is truly with me this day!" Sain crowed happily. "It is a sign that I will succeed in my quest today!"

"Sain!" Kent said exasperatedly. "We always see Florina, Farina, Fiora, and Ninian when we go out on our rounds, remember?"

"Oh…But today they looked even lovelier! That truly is a sign of success!" Sain said as he leaped off of his horse.

"Sain, don't you think you're going a bit too fast? It takes time to get in a relationship-" Kent began.

"No time for small talk now, Kent! The day has started and my quest has just begun! I have my charm, my guts, and my notebook full of information! I cannot lose!" Sain lifted a fist into the sky. "Today is my day! People will look back and see how great I truly am on this day! Today! Today, my quest shall be completed! I'm off!" Sain dashed out of the stables, his brown-hair flying behind him.

Kent put a hand up to his face and sighed. "Of all the people to be stuck with…"

Chris: Well, there you go! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you'll like all the endings! And don't forget, tell me if you want Sain to have an ending with Karla! And join my contest too!

Well, I'm done with my advertisements. Review please!
