(Chapter 3)
(Third person point of view)
(Disclaimer-I do not own Fire Emblem or any of its characters, but I do own my ocs Night and the others.)
WARNING!-this is rated M for violence and sexual scenes! (this contains both, but the violence in not that bad)
Thank you so much for your reviews, Fallen Angel Dark and Elchikaah Haly. Elchikaah Haly, thank you so much, you've been very helpful in your advice, I will try to make the scenes with them more dramatic. I think you might have just solved my problem, I've been having trouble writing long original stories to satisfy me lately (the characters just seemed kind of flat to me), so now I believe I know what I have to do to make them seem more alive, so thank you so much for your advice! Also, thank you for telling me about that site, it is very helpful. Also I'm happy to hear that on one seems to mind Night. I know this was a quick update, but I have today and tomorrow off, so I have been bored.

Edward ran his fingers down Leonardo's naked body. Edward leaned his body against Leonardo's and kissed him on the lips. Leonardo felt his face become warm from blushing as Edward's tongue licked at his lips asking for entrance. Leonardo gave in quickly and opened his mouth allowing Edward's tongue in to explore. Edward traced the inside of Leonardo's mouth with his tongue. It was Leonardo who broke the kiss panting. A smirk formed across Edward's face as he looked at his tired partner. Edward leaned over Leonardo and pressed his lips against Leonardo's neck and began to suck on it. Leonardo let a moan escape his lips as he closed his eyes. Edward ran his hand down Leonardo's body to his manhood.
Leonardo's eyes flung open and he threw himself into a sitting position. He was sweating and breathing heavily. He was sitting up, shirtless, on an old, white, wooden bed. He quickly glanced around the wooden room, but a scream broke his glance. He looked beside him at Micaiah who, surprised by Leonardo's sudden spring to life, screamed. It did not take long for Night to fly into the room, believing that something had broken in and attacked Micaiah. He was disappointed to find out that nothing was attacking her. Leonardo sighed and smiled at her. She had been sitting in a wooden chair beside the bed about the entire night. It wasn't until now that Leonardo noticed he was in a single wooden room. He glanced out the window behind the bed to see that he was high up in a large tree. He almost screamed in surprise, but managed to stop himself by remembering that Night was a raven laguz. He was probably taking refuge in the trees to better protect those that followed him.
"Hey, Micaiah, are you okay?" Leonardo asked her.
"Oh yes. You just surprised me, that is all. How do you feel?" Micaiah said returning to her chair beside the bed.
"I feel find, why?"
"You were wounded! You almost bleed to death, don't you remember?!"
"A little bit, but anyway, where are we?"
"We're in Crimea near its border to Gallia. Night said once you felt better he would take us to the castle where the Greil mercenaries should be."
"Then we should leave right away." Leonardo said, springing up from the bed and running toward the opening, but he was stopped by Night grabbing the collar of his shirt.
"Um, can you please let go of me?" Leonardo said.
"I will if you want to kill yourself, now go lay back down before you reopen your wound." Night said. Leonardo felt a sharp pain enter his back and he let a small yelp of pain escape his pale lips. He slowly walked back to the bed and lied down. He knew the raven was right as much as he hated to wait. Leonardo would gladly walk to the castle on his death bed if it meant he could see Edward again, but he didn't want to give Micaiah another heart attack. He relaxed and closed his eyes. The thoughts of being with Edward once they, made it back to the castle flooded though his mind. He was begging to fall asleep when a large raven laguz was flung threw the door and into the wall. Micaiah screamed and Leonardo jumped up slightly in surprise. The raven laguz was a bloody mess and his right arm had almost been completely torn off. Blood was running down his face and arm. His eyes were begging to roll back into his head. Micaiah backed away from him, shaking. Leonardo felt as if he were going to throw up, but Night simply walked over to the large raven and slapped him across the face.
"What in the world?" Leonardo breathed out staring at the half dead man that lay before him.
"Bruce, what the hell are you doing?" Night snapped, anger showed in his voice. The large man stumped to his feet as his mussels strained to aid his body. He limped over to the corner of the room and leaned up against the wall. His breathing was heavy and he was ghost white.
"Are you alright?" Leonardo asked the stranger.
"Fine lad, but we have more important things to worry about. Night he's found us." Bruce said weakly looking out the broken door, which lay in pieces around them. Leonardo watched as Night's eyes grew large with fear.
"Who's here, what is going on Night?" Leonardo demanded trying to get an understanding of the situation at hand. He could not deny the fact that he was afraid and was hoping Night could handle it alone.
"Just stay here and shut up." Night snapped at the archer. Leonardo sank down in fear, although he was somewhat relived that he might not have to help. He wasn't a brave person like Edward and if looks could kill he would have dropped dead right then and there. Micaiah moved closer to Leonardo surprised by Night's barbaric outburst. Night glared at the two and then jumped form the tree to the ground below. Leonardo turned back to Bruce, the raven who had been flung through the door. He was one of the small band of raven laguz who was following Night.
"Please tell me what's going on?" Leonardo asked him still trying to find out what was going on.
"Well, let's just say king Naesala and Night .., well, they are not the best of friends."
"What happened to make the hate each other?" Leonardo asked.
"You see they used to be like you and that boy you keep having fantasies about, but after the blood pact they started to fight about what to do. Night left with a band of thieves, us, a few days after a violent fight between the two. Night had lost and Naesala banished him. Unfortunately he caught wind on us fighting Begnion and is now very angry with us. You two must stay hidden, there's no telling what Naesala will do if he finds you two." Bruce explained. Leonardo's thought drifted to Edward. He had never even thought of fighting with him, but now after what Bruce had said, the reality of them being apart was starting to take hold on his heart. What of Edward had forgotten him or no longer wanted to be with him? He cringed at the thought of losing Edward and he could only think of what a wreck he would be if they were to get into a fight.
"Night's going to get murdered, we have to help him!" Micaiah yelled.
"What could we possibly do to help him and I do not fantasize about Edward!"
"Don't say that! Also I'm afraid you do." Micaiah said.
"I'm no help to anyone Micaiah." Leonardo sighed, thinking back to how quickly he had obeyed Sothe when he asked him to get Micaiah to safety. He had left Edward there to die, alone.
"Oh, just shut up and come with me!" Micaiah said as she grabbed Leonardo and pulled him to the edge and looked out of the broken door. Naesala stood proudly over Night, who was pinned down underneath him. Naesala leaned down over Night, who was smaller then him, and ran his hand down Night's pale face. He leaned his lips in close to Night's face, but Night did nothing to push him off.
"You shouldn't have gotten involved with my problems which you happen to making worse." Naesala said.
"Shut up! You don't even care what happens to them, so do not pretend like you do! You never cared!" Night snapped at the king. Naesala pulled away from him a bit and laughed.
"I care more for my people then you think, my friend. Perhaps you are the one who does not care? You are afraid without me; admit it, Night lord of the banished raven thieves." Naesala said, mockingly.
"Damn you…" Night growled as he kneed Naesala in the leg, causing him to lose balance. Night quickly got back onto his feet and punched Naesala across the face. Blood dripped from Naesala's mouth and Night punched him again and again.
"Just shut up! Shut up!" Night yelled as he continued to punch Naesala. The raven king's head was whipped back and fourth and blood flew from his mouth on to Night's hands. Naesala fell down onto his knees from Night's force, but caught his fist and flung Night into a nearby tree.
"I will be the one who kills you." Naesala snapped as he closed in on Night. Leonardo panicked and grabbed his bow from the table next to the bed and aimed an arrow at Naesala. He felt the sharp pain again, but tried to ignore it. He pulled the string back and let it go with all of his force. The arrow struck Naesala in the leg. Naesala cringed in pain as he ripped the arrow from his leg. He clenched his bleeding wound pushing on it to give it pressure. He fell onto his good leg and glared up into the little hideout that Leonardo and Micaiah were hiding. Leonardo climbed down from the tree and Micaiah followed him. Leonardo aimed another arrow at Naesala.
"Do not interfere, beorc this does not involve you." Naesala snapped at Leonardo.
"It does now. I owe it to Night." Leonardo said. Night looked up at him. Micaiah stared at Leonardo in surprise. She had never seen him like this before. He was always hiding behind Edward. Naesala smirked as he looked at Leonardo, but Leonardo did not flinch.
"Alright, boy, you win." Naesala said as he flew into the air and about half of the raven thieves were on his tail squawking and pecking at him. He easily avoided them, but he looked back at Night with shame sparkling in his eyes.
"Come back here, all of you." Night commanded the dozen that had chased Naesala. They obediently flew back down to him. Leonardo and Micaiah ran over to Night.
"Night, are you okay!?" Leonardo said as he fell onto his knees beside the raven laguz.
"Yeah, I'm just lucky we didn't end up fighting in our laguz forms. I remember the last time that happened they were still cleaning blood off of the streets a week later." Night said calmly. Leonardo shivered at the image Night had created in his mind. He wasn't found of blood or of fighting in general. He just wanted to make it all stop and leave forever. The bloody battle seen in his mind soon turned to a peaceful one with Edward. He couldn't help, but wonder how Edward was doing back with Sothe. The thought of Edward being with Sothe brought comfort to him and he soon lead himself to believe that he would see Edward again once they left for the castle. He could feel the relief of this thought wash through his body.
"Night, how long do we have to wait to leave for the castle?" Leonardo whined. Night laughed a bit at him.
"Once you learn that you need rest, so we might not leave in a very long time."
"Seriously please?"
"Two days if you rest all day tomorrow."
"Okay." Leonardo nodded. Two days until he would see Edward again. His heart filled with so much joy that he thought it might explode. Leonardo had become a better archer in one day and he wanted to show Edward how much better he was now. More then anything, though, he wanted to be held in his arms again, to fell his warmth and love again. Leonardo looked up at the clear blue sky and sighed with pleasure. He would see Edward in two days.
