Hello all you wonderful human beings! I am Mattirving and it has been YEARS since i've done anything on this website. So I told myself I should try something new this year. I was browsing through emails and could not help but notice that there are still people reading and favoriting my old stories and I got the urge to write again. So this is me attempting on a whim to go back and start writing again. Two good friends of mine have published their first books and one is available starting today so that also was a factor. So everyone is on the same page, this is a remake of Ylisstol High but in a new telling. It's modernised and I'd like to attempt a sole romance focus instead of a harem route. for those of you who enjoyed the work i compel you to try it. I have not yet decided the pairings yet again so I will be once again doing a poll to decide. ANY kind of comment, reviews and dms about the story is always appreciated and well received. Let's start 2022 with a bang and for those of you who stuck around so long and read the old ylisstol high and came back, I could never thank you enough you have honeslty stuck with me a long time. BUT I AM BACK BABY. Sorry for the long rant. Please enjoy what I call the retelling and reimagined Ylisstol High, I hope you enjoy it all as well as the first one.

By book, by blade or by Crest of Flame, in this world, war is raged in many ways. Love and hatred fuel the flames of battle as every step brings calamity closer. a stunning resplendent blade nearly misses the head of a tall dark figure. Whilst our hero, prepares a mighty spell in one hand and with perfect timing, fires it off and hits his target. As the man falls to the floor, beaten and dead, the time left to celebrate such a hard fought victory had alas been cut short.

''Chrom! We have to do something!''

''What do you suppose we do?''

A well built blue haired youth stood face to face with a petite blond lady as they spoke to each other in a familiar yet urging tone. Robin's eyes flickered awake as he realised that the figures stood before him.

''I don't know!'' said the blond miss with an uncertain demeanor.

The two figures stared down at Robin who was now fully awake and aware of his surroundings.

'' I see you're awake now, there are better places to take a nap than in the middle of class you know. Here take my hand.'' The blue haired youth said with a smile.

Robin took his hand and got out of his chair. Taking in what was as of today his new classroom. Ylisstol High! One of the greatest academic institutions for the pursuit of knowledge and an eventful yet easygoing school life. When Robin learned he was to transfer in this great place, he had no reason to not be excited. The school was quite large it was once a fort during a great war and was repurposed as a school. As such, the school had many wondrous sights to behold. Yet despite it all, most of Robin's life would be spent in the classroom for class 2-A. Happy with the kind gesture, he smiled and took a deep look at his face.

''Thanks Chrom, I appreciate it.'' Robin replied still chasing the sleep away from his voice.

Chrom and his tiny friend were taken aback.

''You know who I am?'' Chrom asked in a mystified stupour.

''Yeah, it's strange i don't exactly know why but your name stood out to me when I heard it. Weird huh?'' Robin added.

As Robin concluded his sentence a tall boy with a mean muscle mass approached the three. As soon as he reached a reasonable distance he spoke up.

'' Mr President, you should not be taking in the sights of another boy. We have to head into the Garrison besides many ladies would be disapointed to hear the knight with shining blazing blue hair plays for the other team.'' He said with a stoic expression before bursting out into laughter.

As the hilarity ensued between the boy and little girl. Chrom immediatly hit his friend in the chest with a closed fist. As the boy laughed through the pain Chrom's anger became more noticable as he contorted his face to match his mood.

''Damn it Frederick! How many times are you going to screw around with me today?''

''Mr President, you and I have never screwed and certainly not this day!''

'' HAHAHAHAHA'' The blond shouted.

Robin took in the sight before him. They certainly seemed like nice people. It must be nice to have friends in this school.

''Forget him Robin! Since you just transfered today I was thinking of offering you a tour. How do you feel about accomponying us through the school as we grab?'' Chrom said attempting to drown the laughter of his two friends.

''Wait...lunch? Did I sleep through all the morning classes? Well at this rate i'll be able to tell my dad the day went by pretty fast.''

''Glad you're having fun but things get better from here I promise. Shall we depart?''

Robin smiled and nodded.

''By the way Robin, I'm Lissa, Chrom's sister and the Cutest girl in school but I'm not looking for something rigth now so I'm sorry to break your heart.'' The girl mused.

''OH THE HORROR, WHY MUST YOU BE THIS WAY SWEETEST LISSA AND PLAY MY HEART LIKE A WOEFUL VIOLIN'' Frederick dramatically yelled.

''Sorry Fredy, but that won't change anytime soon!'' she said coyly.

The four left the classroom with laughter filling the air between them. As they strolled through the halls, Robin took in the sights around him. Students, stone and the sun permeated his view. As they approached their destination through the scenic route. Robin watched as everyone greeted Chrom with a smile and some swooned.

''So Chrom out of curiosity, how the hell do you know so many people?'' Robin asked with curiosity.

''Oh I neglected to mention. I am the student council president so it's not as much as I know everyone as everyone knows me.''

The group approached the cafeteria and ordered their food. Robin stood silently as he looked for a place to sit with the group but he was immediatly taken out of his state by a firm hand on the shoulder.

''Alright, Robin follow us, we are going to the usual spot.'' Said Chrom

''Oh? And where is that exactly?''

''The Garrison. I'ts where the student council hangs out and has their meetings. Since we are all a part of it that's where we all go to eat too.'' Said Lissa

''Indeed. It is an ensemble cast of the finest our student body has to offer. Try your best to not make a fool of yourself or else the embarassement may cause you to soil yourself like any man before devouring bear.'' Said Frederick with a matter of fact tone.

''I actually rather enjoy bear. '' Robin quiped

''Oh yes bear is delicious...It's so good...it just... goes well with...anything'' Frederick attempted to chew out.

''Please don't soil yourself Frederick. You'll make a fool out of yourself.'' said Robin with a raised eyebrow.

The group reached their destination after walking around trading stories of their lives up to this point and laughing all the way. Chrom opened the door to find a whole lot of...nothing.

''I guess the others aren't here yet. Or more appropriate to say, they've left.'' Chrom said.

The group sat around the large table as they began devouring their food. As they partook in their rations, Chrom's phone rang alerting him of a text message.

''Oh great. Sorry guys I have to go see Sumia, apparently she broke something...again. Frederick can you come with me I could use the back up. Apparently the other student involved is pretty upset.'' Chrom said.

''Of course we depart at once.''

The two left the room with haste leaving Robin and Lissa. Lissa rose from her seat to go to the bathroom and left Robin alone in the Garrison. As he looked around he noticed the strong structure of the room. it was most likely fortified with the intent of this being a room with VIP security in mind. Robin heard the door open and quickly said loudly.

''Welcome back! How was the bathroom? Did you take care of business?'' Robin said trying to egg on Lissa.

''Ummm...I'm sorry but thats...'' Said the unfamiliar voice.

Robin stood shocked. Before him was not the gutsy tomboyish girl, but another person he did not know. She had pink hair and a very reserved demeanor. It was easy to tell she was shy by her blush. Who woukdn't be especially after what he just said.

''Oh God I'm so sorry. I thought you were someone else. Forget what I just said and let's start over.'' Robin said attempting to calm the situation down.

The girl glanced at Robin and after a small breath lightly nodded in affirmation. Her eyes quickly darted back to the floor in an attempt to chase away her shyness as Robin attempted to breach the gap between them with small slow footsteps as to not alarm her.

''I'm Robin, class 2-A.''

Robin awaited a response as he streched out his hand before her in an attempt to make a handshake. He was so focus on attempting to discern her facial features that he failed to notice the hole in the floor between them. He placed his foot on the floor and his foot fell in the small crack causing him to tumble. The girl screamed as Robin now found himself on top of her.

''Are you ok? I'm sorry I didn't see the damn broken tile beneath me.''

Her faced was flushed. She tried speaking but no words would come out. But it wasn't long before the silence was filled.

''You sorry son of a bitch what the hell are you doing?'' Said a voice coming from in front of them.

Robin looked up before him and saw a scarlet haired figure arms crossed as she looked down at the scene. Robin wanted to answer simply but quickly realised his hand that he had previously extended had softly landed on her breast and had uncontrollably latched on to it like a rock climber firmly grasping at rock to prevent falling to his death.

''Wait I can explain it's not at all what it looks like.'' Robin said with a shaky voice.

Despite his protest, the scarlet knight before him took a spear that was on the wall and spun it around so it pointed towards his neck.

''You dare come into the Garrison and molest one of the members of the student council! For the crimes you've commited I sentence you do death. Unless you have a perfect defense and explanation as to why you lay on top of my friend fondling her chest.''

Chrom and the others burst into the room having heard shouting.

''What the hell is going on here?'' Chrom said.

As everyone stood still at the scene, Robin prepared for what could be his final breath. Lissa laughed, Frederick was frightened, Robin was terrified, Chrom was confused, The scarlet knight was ready to pounce and the pink haired floorweight blushed uncontrollably.

''I was going to shake her hand and then I fell!'' Robin yelled in desperation.

''That was the worse lie I've ever heard. And I've watched a lot of court shows.'' Said the scarlet menace.

Chrom helped Robin off the ground and the girls did the same for his victim. The gang sat down to hear both sides of the story and although quite unfortunate, it did seem to be truthful. Hearing the story, Chrom could not help but laugh at his new friend's was quickly joined by his sister and friend. The other girls grew quite a bit embarassed and looked away.

''It seems I was wrong, I'm sorry for what I said. Please forgive me.''

''More importantly why are their real weapons in this room? I thought this was a school not a damn weapon factory!'' Robin said.

''This is the Garrison Robin. Remember the old fort thing?'' Chrom said laughing.

The two new girls raised their heads at the mention of that name. Robin confused stared at them both.

''I get it now, that must have been why you were in here to begin with.''

''Oh...so you must be the new transfer...student?''

Robin was uncertain as to how they already knew that but was happy he didn't need to make a new attempt at shaking hands. He was afraid that if he tried, he would end up catching hands instead.

''Yes that would be me. Robin, transfer student and a part of class 2-A.''

''It's a pleasure. My name is Cordelia I am vice-president of the security council and in class 2-B.'' The scarlet haired beauty said.

''I'm Olivia. I'm not really anything special but I am a member of the council. I am also in class 2-B. Umm... and I would appreciate it if you wouldn't stare at me...I get embarassed.'' The pinkette added.

''Nice to meet you both. So howdid you know who I was based on my name and how I would be here?'' Robin questioned.

Chrom took a breath in before getting ready for what Robin was expecting to be a long speech.

''I told them'' Chrom said.

''Huh'' Robin added quite pleased at the shortness of his answer.

''I won't lie to you Robin. I was told of your abilities. Not only were you top of your class in your previous school, but you managed to get a scholarship to this school. They said you were naturally gifted at studying and best of all you are a humble one. Which brings me to this present point in time. With you're brain and hardworking nature I was wondering if you would be willing to join us in our little union and lead our students to what should be the most exciting moments of their life. We are their shepherds and they our flock! Join us Robin on this sacred quest to safe the students of what could be a dreary and sad high school life. Together we can rule...I mean make the school a better place.'' Chrom finally mustered.

''Wait...you planned this didn't you Chrom? You brought me here with the intent of recruiting me from the start. And how exactly did you know about my previous life?''

''That would be a secret Robin my friend. Think about it it has quite a fair bit of boons. Such as instant popularity. Join us and everyone will respect you. Your life will be the best it's ever been. On a side note I'd actually love to be your friend.'' Chrom said pitching him his sale.

''And if I refused?'' Robin asked.

''Well...I don't know how everyone would react to a molester at our school...''

''That's low Chrom.''

''Is that a yes I hear? Oh Robin we'd love to have you!'' Chrom said laughing.

Robin thought about it. True the perks would be a great boon. The added credit on his college application would also be a plus and also the girls here were pretty cute.

''Sure why not. But no more molester jokes I'm sure Olivia would rather not revisit the scenario.''

Olivia blushed and looked away.

''Everyone, welcome Robin to our club! Robin has the distinct pleasure of being my right hand man. You are now officially my consultant. Let's use our brains and make this place the best damn school this world will ever see!'' Chrom declared

The room filled with a positive energy as everyone welcomed their new friend into their confidant ranks. But something was on Robin's mind.

''I'm glad to be here everyone. But why did you all believe me when I explained myself?''

Before anyone could muster an answer, a brunette with wavy locks entered the room.

''President Chrom I have my apology written! I'd like to give it to you know please!''

Robin watched as the girl approached Chrom...and saw the very same hole in her path.

''Hey! Watch out!'' He yelled attempting to stop her.

''Huh? what's wrong?'' The girl said

Before Robin could explain, Her toes reached the abyss that brought anything straigth down to hell and fell over. Luckily however she was able to grab a hold of Chrom and fell on top of him. Chrom's hands firmly grasped her butt as it clenched at the feel of what could have been hard enough to be a spank.

''And that Robin is why we believed you. Sumia get off him.'' Cordelia said

Sumia quickly jumped off the poor man as he lay there embarassed and confused.

''Sumia, you need to get new boots.'' Chrom said.

''I swear it wasn't the boots it's that stupid hole again!'' Sumia said red faced.

The group errupted into laughter at the scene. It seemed Robin's story was a lot more believable than he expected.

''There you have it Robin. So what do you want to do now?'' LIssa asked smiling.

Robin thought for a moment. Then he quickly said '' My first suggestion as member of the student council is to fix all these damn holes in the floor before this place becomes the Ylissean Molesters League.''

The Shepherds once again rioted in laughter at Robin's joke. It may not have seemed like muchbut for Robin, this was the begining. On his first day of school, he slept through the first half of his classes, made friends with the biggest group of Idiots ever and somehow earned a title and position in the student council. It looks like he really did have something to tell his family about today after all. The rest of the day passed by quickly and the Shepherds quickly gathered their belongings and headed home slowly depleting their numbers one by one until Chrom, Lissa and Robin remained. The three continued talking about the days to come and what Robin should expect of his new life at his new school.

''Thank you Chrom and Lissa. Because of you guys I'm super optimistic about the days to come. I feel super charged and happy to be a part of the group.'' Robin said smiling

''Aww Robin! My brother and I are glad to have you alongside us. Life is going to be way more fun with you around.'' Lissa said beaming with glee.

''What she said! Thank you for joining. With you on the council I'm sure we can pull off the most amazing year this school has ever seen. Tomorow we start our work officially though. Ylisstol High has a few strange traditions and events but I'm sure you can get behind them. Here's to what will be a great year. Remember if we pull it off, we will be loved! We can for sure get girlfriends and rule over the school!'' Chrom said with stars in his eyes.

''Ignore that last part Robin, he may say stuff like that but he actually hasn't realised how popular he already is. I'm sorry to say that you're stuck with that stigma now too.'' Lissa said disgusted by her brother.

''Well it's definitly going to be a new experience. Back in Plegia, I was a ghost so the idea of having friends and romance is completly new to me.'' Robin said laughing sarcastically.

''Oh right I almost forgot! Robin tomorow I'd like you to bring your brain to our meeting. We need get a few things ready for what will be the biggest event of the new year. I'm expecting a lot of good ideas. We have one week to prepare for the start of the opening ceremony!'' Chrom said.

''Understood! Well this is my house so I'll see you guys tomorow!'' Robin said smiling.

The trio shared their farewells. Robin entered his house and his first thought was ''Bring my brain he said. I thought fixing the holes in the floor was a good idea. Let's also add getting rid of any weapon on school grounds too!''. Robin noticed his father was not back yet but noticed his sister's bag on the floor.

''Morgan! Please stop leaving your shit in the way!'' Robin yelled.

Morgan ran to the doorway disapointed.

''You mean, You saw? I thought for sure you wouldn't see it and trip over it. Oh! maybe you called me because you needed someone to fall on top of?''

''...What?''

''Yeah that's perfect that way the door opens and dad has a spear and he points it at your neck! Great plan.''

''How do you know that?'' Robin asked in fear.

''Oh my friends told me. Don't worry there aren't any weird rumours or anything just a funny misunderstanding it happens all the time.'' Morgan said with a laugh.

Robin was horrified but knew his sister wouldn't lie atleast. Now he was convinced he had the right ideas for school!

Well that's chapter 1. I would greatly appreciate any at all response to the story so far. My goal is to make a rewrite of the old story in a way that it has a new identity and a seperate contunuity and timeline. Like FFVII and FFVII remake. The poll will be up for who Robin should be paired up with. I'd like to make this one have a more clear route with one heroine in mind so get to voting. Thank you all for getting this far I really hope you enjoyed it because I'd like to do more of this if you enjoy it. I am Mattirving. Leave a review or a PM and please stay safe out there!
