Author's Note: Yep, it's short... oh well! Short, sweet, and to the point! Anyways, after this, I'm going to write a scene for when the dragons' gate is open and Nils is gonna go through (but, as you already guessed, he won't!), and I'm gonna have Ninian stay with Eliwood (come ON! If you've ever played FE6 and got the supports between Marcus and Lilina, the evidence is THERE! Roy's moms' favorite flower was from Ilia, which rules out Lyn - cause hers' should be from Sacae - and the mother is described as gentle, loving and kind... quite frankly, gentle is not a word I'd use to describe Fiora. Not that she isn't gentle, she's just not gentle enough for me to be able to even notice. EliwoodxNinian TRUTH! XDDD Sorry EliwoodxLyn and EliwoodxFiora fans. I still like those couples, but not as much as EliwoodxNinina.
Anyways! So off-topic- erm, where was I... oh yes! The scene with Nils gonna leave Ninian with Eliwood and go through the portal and the alternative ending piece. ^.^ So, it's all good!
Nils stared at the dragon, a pain in his heart and a tear in his eye. The dragon was his enemy now, but at one time, this dragon was a brother from the other world. Nils shook his head when he heard Mark call out to him. He had a job to do, he needed to focus! "You need to be near Lyn," Mark shouted to the teal-haired boy. "She fights better with you around - just be careful!" Nils blinked. She fought better with him beside her? A light blush came to his cheeks as he rushed across the tiled floor to Lyn's side.
Lyn looked at him, a smile coming to her face, but it quickly turned to a look of solemn determination. "I am to strike the final blow," she whispered to him, glancing at Eliwood and Hector, who were currently in battle with the dragon. She looked at him. "I... I am sorry I have to do this, Nils."
Nils shook his head, offering a sad smile. "Lady Lyndis, I know... he is the enemy now." He gently grabbed her arm to show physical affection. "Just as you were strong and destroyed that Uhai morph, I will also be strong and help you slay this dragon." He stared into her eyes as she searched his face, scanning it for any hidden thoughts. When she smiled, he nodded firmly.
"I shall be strong," she confirmed, turning towards the dragon, but she still spoke to her dear friend. "I would like you to stay back, Nils. I do not wish any harm to come to you." She felt a hand grab her forearm, and she looked at him. When he shook his head, she gave him a questioning expression.
He frowned at her. "I don't want you to face the danger alone; we shall do it together!" When she attempted to protest, he shook his head again. "Lady Lyndis... we have fought together, suffered together, traveled together, laughed together; since we started, we've done most everything together. So please... let us face this trial..." his voice trailed off as his hand found hers, and he gripped it gently. He looked into her eyes with a determined expression. "Together."
She stared at him for a moment, not sure what to say. Finally, she merely smiled and nodded. "Yes, so we shall." She turned to the dragon, scowling solemnly. As she charged forward, pulling along the teal-haired dragon boy, she let out a war cry, readying her sword to deliver the final blow at Mark's direction. As she gripped Nils' hand ever tighter, she felt invincible, powerful; like nothing could survive a single blow from her mighty hand.
