Sorry for the run on sentences I will not be fixing them sorry but if I notice them while typing I will fix them note they never did say the capital for Plegia so I'll have to make up a name it seems list it if its said what the capitals name is.
"Okay then Donny I'll be teaching you the sword when we get to Ylisstol" Blake said
"But your Milordy-" Blake cut Donnel off
"Enough with the formality Donny I'm not king yet or the official prince of Plegia and besides I was watching your stance and fighting you fight like you were using a sword."
"You were watching me? I bet I was …... distracting over yonder wasn't ye?" Donnel said
"Donnel you weren't distracting and when I was fighting I was purposely doing bad strikes so you'd have the edge." Blake said which surprised him
"You mean you took those gits for me?" Donnel said
"Yes I did Donnel I'm one of your childhood friends while I practiced the sword you were busy growing up on a sickle so most of the sword strikes you did with that lance it was because of you being raised to use a sickle and sickles are slashed with a scythe and sword so I'm personally training you when we get Ylisstol ….. mmkay?" Blake said
"You sure this is wise Milord?" Phila said
"Phila it's okay besides I'd doubt Chrom would care if I took a apprentice to the sword and besides what better teacher then one who grow up as a friend." He said looking over to Donnel
"He's right Captain speaking of which we are almost at Ylisstol." Cordelia said flying next to Blake and Donnel.
"Okay then lets full speed ahead then ….. Hia ya!" Blake said whipping the reigns making Asta go faster causing Donnel grab hold of Blake
Flashback
"You touch my mind fumbling in Ignorance boy you are going to die …. now Die!" Blake said
Blake jumped disappeared and slashed at the boys back forcing him to drop his weapon.
"Oh no we're to late he's gained the scroll!" A voice said
"I am a dread fighter you can not kill me!" Blake Yelled
Flashback end
"Prince Blake?" Cordelia said snapping him out of his thoughts
"Yes?" He responded to see her at his door
"Prince Chrom is returning soon and you said I could come to if I needed help with anything" She said
"I did say that didn't I let me clear you a spot then" Blake then got up and moved his guitar of his bed and put it near his desk and he sat down on his desk chair but not before turning it around to face the bed,Cordelia confused at first then nodded and sat down on the bed.
"Now what ya need help with ranging from problems, gifts personal problems and trying to win the rival princes heart." Blake responded with him then putting his elbow on his desk and resting his chin on his fist.
"I...I never said I wanted tt-o win his heart." She stated trying to hide her redness but to no avail considering Blake to could spot it from a mile away.
"Right don't think I didn't hear from Sully,Sumia,Lissa and practically everyone that knows you heck even Phila mentioned it once or twice …... I think." He said
"I just wanted to ask how you ….. manage." She stated after regaining her composure from the comment
"How I managed? To what? Survive, make a living or the fact I'm trying to regain my country?" Blake replied
"I mean Chrom and the hero king are amazing people but I've never seen someone's entire demeanor change the moment they entered a battle." Cordelia responded and to this Blake picked his head up off his fist and placed his arm in his lap.
"In truth be told I never really told anyone why since I never grow up with friends." Blake said
"But what about Donnel?" Cordelia said back
"I was long gone before I gained this demeanor but don't let Prince Chrom not even the royal family know no one finds out only people with higher then royal clearance can learn this." Blake said getting with Cordelia nodding and she watched him get up and he moved his hand around his desk and she heard a click revealing a secret armor stand in the wall.
"What is this?" She asked getting up
"Its a Plegian Dreadfighter garb I intended to wear in battle when I became king." He replied after a moments hesitation and upon further inspection she saw his mark on a small circled crest shinning purple the suit had a hood of a assassin but had a mask of a dark bird with red outline it had two swords on the back it was dark enough to be unseen in pitch black there was a mire tome slightly peeking out of the attire it was made of a fabric that Cordelia thought to be linen or hardened liquor but after a moment of looking at it again Cordelia realized something.
"So this is the reason why because you were trained to become a dread fighter?"
"Yes dread fighters like me are trained to strike without hesitation and we spend years training our senses and reflexes and while you will question why I've only shown the demeanor part in battle I've never had a good enough reason to I'm only showing five percent of what I can do because once I bump it up to thirty or higher people are going to see who I am."
"So you being a prince was a-" she was cut off
"It wasn't a lie but I did spend years learning so when I resurface I can get my home back with hesitation even though I'm not so post to show you this I trust you understand my judgment behind this." Blake said before grabbing the garb folding it into a dreadscroll and putting in his attire's hidden chest pocket.
"I understand but I do want to put this conversation aside because I was curious to how you were nimble in battle but a carefree person off the field but now I'm curious about Plegian history." She said sitting back down on the bed and Blake sitting back down on the chair.
"What do you what to know?" He asked
"I'm curious about the Plegian culture can we start there?" Cordelia asked
"We'll for starters we take a liking to bear meat and long before we were Plegia we we're Dolhr which eventually mixed with some other nations and became Plegia." Blake started
"Who founded Plegia? I mean Dolhr?" Cordelia asked
"Gharnef the sorcerer but Medeus played a role their as one of the founders I think sorry that I can't give out much information on the topic since a lots of things prevented me from learning much of the local history... that or I'm having problems remembering,kinda ironic huh? The plegian prince can't remember details about his nations history." Blake said
"No it's fine Blake but um-" the two were interrupted by a guard coming in requesting them both which looked at each other,nodded and started towards the door.
"That would be M-Maribelle!" Lissa exclaimed with Blake and Cordelia walking in.
"Okay whats the ruckus about?" Blake asked
"Gangrel as taken Maribelle hostage and is demanding the fire emblem, he also says she trespassed and killed some Plegians in the process." Chrom said turning to face Blake
"I highly doubt Maribelle could kill someone if she's a healer" Blake said
"Blake this is no time for jokes!" Lissa said at him like a frustrated child
"My bad but how do you die to a healer?" Blake said before straining a laugh
"He's kinda right you know."Cordelia added
"Cordelia your not helping."Phila said
"Sorry captain." She said immediately
"Now lets get going to the rendezvous point shall we?" Blake said
"Lets" Chrom said
"Speaking of which Chrom while you were out I managed to gain a new shepherd." Blake said after remembering Donnel
"Can help here?" Chrom asked
"Donnel get in here!" Blake yelled behind him, and a few seconds later a boy in what looked like a mercenary garb.
"You hired a mercenary?" Chrom asked
"I didn't and he's my newly required Apprentice to the sword but what I didn't expect was him to get armor so quickly." Blake said looking at Donnel
"I thought to get some armor to give ma armor some relax as yall would say." Donnel responded
"Well that explains how you disappeared on me when we got back …...or was I so lost in thought to realize?" Blake asked
"Yall were a little both but I'm ready to fight and hone whatever it was." Donnel replied
"Goodie now lets actually get to the rendezvous." Blake said and everyone nodded.
"Let me go you incoherent brute!" Maribelle barked towards the barbarian holding her
"Someone shut her trap before I do it! Permantly!" Gangrel barked at her then turned to see Emmeryn but it wasn't her that caught his eye oh no it was …... Plegia's exiled prince himself showing his face.
"Aversa I thought you said the exiled himself was dead! Rotting! In some cave somewhere!" Gangrel barked at his assistant.
"He is why poor Gangie?" She responded
"I don't think you need a brain to know that …. that thing isn't rotten!" Gangrel said pointing towards the Princes direction and Aversa looked over with surprise written on her face.
"How is he alive? The scouts years ago said he was killed" She responded
"No matter here's the pathetic exalt herself in all her radiance."
"Don't trust her Emmeryn her names Aversa she's also grimleal so be carefull." Blake whispered into her ear.
"Gangrel I've-"Gangrel interrupted her as she begun
"I don't think we deserve your meekie week words! No we deserve the exiled prince himself for a answer no don't we?" He said pointing and looking behind him at his soldiers, they all looked forward at the prince some of them anxious, but not anxious for blood or rage, the prince noticed this and started walking forward.
"Gangrel you know full well what your doing." Blake began
"How is your sorry excuse for a human being alive after all these years?!" He said pointing and screaming and Cordelia noticed his face was still calmly serious.
"I don't think you should be asking me that Gangrel ,no but I will say this and I say let the noble woman go." Blake stated
"No she trespassed and killed her escort! I demand war or justice for her crimes!" Gangrel barked and Blake only smiled and begun
"How does a healer kill a escort?"
"What?" Gangrel asked not cackling but in a confused way
"She obviously lacks the skill to take on warriors from Plegia... alone no less." Blake stated in a matter of fact tone.
"He's right Gangrel how? Explain it to us then? A soldier added,Chrom could only grin at what was happening
"Yeah explain it to us my so called "king" The barbarian said letting go of Maribelle which made her walk quickly back to saviors.
"She could have had help!" Gangrel yelled which stopped Maribelle in her tracks and Cordelia saw that Blake was now wearing a pained expression but then grinned again.
"How could she have had help for something she didn't plan for? And besides you can-" Gangrel cut Blake off
"Thats it! Kill them! Kill them all this is my war! Ahahahahahahah!." He said walking away and yet somehow they did have to prepare for a fight but sadly Maribelle wasn't in reach with the other shepherds but the second the fight erupted Blake was already by her side.
"Maribelle go I'll cover you." He said
"But you'll die if you-"Maribelle was then interrupted by Blake
"Better me then you my lady now go before I decide to leave you!" Blake yelled at her,causing Maribelle to reluctantly nod and run.
"Lets go! Shepherds move out! Blake is going to hold out so long so hurry! Cordelia! Phila!take Emmeryn to safety!" Chrom ordered Phila nodded and Cordelia agreed and they flew out of sight with Emmeryn.
"Plegians you must stop before it's to late!" Blake yelled as he parried a sword thrust
"I'm sorry prince but we must do this" Orton said flying behind him
"No you don't! You don't have to do anything Gangrel tells you! Especially you Orton!"Blake yelled
"But our families he will kill them all prince." Orton said somberly
"Orton the ones still alive order them to drop their weapons and march back to Plegia and evacuate your families!" Blake said
After a pause Orton spoke up
"Everyone we are marching back to Plegia to save our families! Now fall back! Well rendezvous to Ylisstol soon." He spoke to the prince
Chrom before slashing a fighter noticed the Plegians running back some tried to give chase but Blake yelled
"These plegians are now on our side in the war do not harm them!"
At this everyone stopped and Blake went to Chrom and said "These are now our people to help in our fight and Orton said he'll rendezvous to Ylisstol with the group soon after his family has been evacuated." Chrom nodded and Phila and Emmeryn landed and Blake noticed this and asked "Where's Cordy?"
"She's gone to Ylisstol to prepare the Pegasus knights for war." Phila said
"Blake the plegians …... were they running?" Emmeryn asked
"There not they are coming to our side ….. I managed to convince Orton and he's going to rendezvous to Ylisstol so we must get back there and prepare for his arrival." Blake said and they nodded Phila looking skeptical.
"Soon we will rendezvous to Ylisstol! To join our prince to bring him back to power to not only save our nation but bring our prince home! For our prince! For Plegia! Orton yelled and everyone cheered back.
"For the prince! For Plegia!" Everyone cheered
"I'm glad you were able to gain Orton in the war do you know his story?" Emmeryn asked as they waited for Orton and his men to show.
"Orton is a extremely loyal person as I learned he does what he can for Plegia just like Mustafa …... though I do wish we run into Vasto." Blake said
"May I ask who is Vasto?" Phila and Frederick said at the same time walking in.
"You see how Emmeryn has Phila? And how Chrom has Frederick?" Blake said
"What about them?" Chrom said walking in with Lissa sitting down at the table.
"Vasto is my personal bodyguard just like Orton." Blake said and Chrom signed
"Don't worry Chrom when in battle Vasto takes off a cruel exterior, but a sad interior if he's forced into fighting his prince he will join us without question if I just ask it, and besides he's not so bad and not so safe crazy as Frederick." Blake finished
"That's hurts Milord." Frederick said and just then Orton came in and Blake motioned him to sit next to him.
"So Orton how does it feel to fight for your prince once again?" Blake asked him
"It feels great Plegia's ran Gangrels banners to long its time to run yours again so lets to Carrison and do the same."Orton responded
"Right" Blake replied
"Sire to much has changed at first Gangrel was fine in power till Ylissean poison killed his wife and baby." Orton continued
"He had a child?!" Lissa exclaimed
"Course he did he didn't have proof that a Ylissean put it there so I'm assuming that since it was a Ylissean that put it there but hey it ain't any of my business." Orton replied to the princess
"Orton any word from Vasto that you know of?" Blake asked
"Not much but hey it's Vasto if it was Mustafa I'd have a answer but the minute Vasto see's you and he see's the rumors that your alive he will join you but get this Gangrel is Planning a invasion on Ylisstol." Orton said surprising everyone
"Why are you telling us this?" Phila said giving a deathly stare at the man
"I'd rather get comfy with my princes allies then force the cold shoulder." He replied
"Orton did you send the plegian families to Ylisstol or Ferox?" Blake asked
"I had to send them to Ferox which they took them in with open arms but there does spin a problem because the invasion is going to happen in a few days." He said
"Not nearly enough time to evacuate the capital Phila added."
"Can we ever catch a break? Lissa said covering her face putting her arms on the table. not
"Apparently we can't" Cordelia said walking in
"We're you eavesdropping Cordy?" Blake said causing Cordelia to blush a tiny bit but it wasn't directed towards him but at prince Chrom but Blake shook it off.
"Yes I was I thought to make my self known now." She replied
"More people or per say soldiers know the better." Orton added
Meanwhile
"Ugh mother when are you going to see? Father is practically saying or knows he likes you yet you still blush towards Chrom... no what that's I'm going to ask to join them since well they need it obviously or my mother does" Severa thought to her self before moving
Back to Blake
"So how do we proceed from here?" Chrom asked
"How bout evacuate every person before you think "Gods I screwed up" Severa said walking in causing everyone to look over.
"Lyn didn't think we'd see you again." Chrom said
"Well apparently I'm needed so I'm joining your shepherds on one condition." Severa said
"And whats that?" Blake said getting up.
"The mask stays!" She yelled causing Blake to flinch.
"That's fine Lyn just don't reveal who you are till your ready to." Emmeryn said causing Severa to look over and smile.
"Also I'm gonna need a different sword because if anyone sees what it is it will raise questions I'd rather not answer and not get." Severa added
"That can be done." Blake said
"Now if that concludes your business we should get to evacuating everyone and I think you should get to seeing you daughter Blake." Chrom said
"You have a daughter?" Orton asked
"She's adopted" Blake stated bluntly
"Then go see her and um Blake may I come with you?" Severa asked causing him to look at her and smile so she took this as a sure.
"Whens daddy getting here!" Morgan screamed
"He's coming home just wait a bit longer." Rosie said in hopes to calm her done but she only pouted and crossed her arms while kicking the bed covers.
"Morgan?" Blake asked coming in and to this Morgan jumped down and tackled him causing Severa to laugh.
"Daddy!" She yelled
"Morgan dear could you get off of me I... I can't move." Blake tried to say
"No!" Morgan said hugging him tighter and Severa could only look at her older younger sister with a happy smile.
"Figures" Blake grunted
