How to start this… I am drunk, pissed and very angry. Nah that's not true. Yesterday was quite a stressful day because I was doing this quest on LLRO. There's this dungeon called the Secret Laboratory or something like that anyway. Well, since 4.0 was released you had to do this really long and lousy quest just to enter and whoop ass. I was reading this walkthrough and technically it didn't really make sense so that was one reason that I was pissed off. Inhales deep breath
Life is starting to be good again sigh no it's not…anyway I'm planning to go WoE soon once my guild will expand slightly (No chance)
14th March
We, me and Blaze, met up with Eliwood. It was nice seeing him again since being with Blaze for a year was quite boring; however I am really angry to see such weaklings with him. An archer, no more than her teen years, is with us. A Cavalier who is even more pathetic then her and a retired Paladin are the body guards of Eliwood. What is he even thinking? He probably lost his mind like everyone else. Well, a few days later Eliwood met up with a friend of his. He is an Ostian lording and apparently he was looking for Eliwood. At least he has a decent guardian and his name is Oswin. His class is a knight but he looks nothing like the knights I knew. Instead of a trusty, gallant steed he has big, chunky armour and carries a lance. If that armour is supposed to win an award for "Losers'" then I congratulate him, he has won it. Well, I saw Matthew and Serra again. It's nice to see the loud and noisy cleric and the cunning, not to mention ridiculously charming, thief.
We're on our way to some castle that I do not know. I wasn't really paying attention to what everyone was saying. It's so boring here! I wish I could see Sain again. Sain…
"Victoria, I am SO going to whoop your ass if you do not shut that book and get your butt out here!"
Victoria quickly shut the book and ran outside. Yet again, Blaze had stopped her from putting in another diary entry.
"I know how much you must love writing in your diary but a battle is much more important. Now pay attention, here's the battle plan."
Blaze and Victoria huddled together as Blaze explained what Victoria must do. Everyone else was ahead, making their way to seize the castle. Victoria merely nodded here and there and once Blaze was done she ran to catch up with Eliwood.
"Aww thanks for ditching me here!" yelled Victoria.
Enemy Camp
"Hey. Hey you! Kid!"
A young Myrmidon turned round to find a brigand yelling at him.
"Listen kid, some enemies are comin this way. We're countin on ya to take'em out you understand?"
"Yeah whatever…" said the nomad.
The brigand snorted and strode off towards the rest of the brigands. A Wyvern rider, who had witnessed what had happened, walked towards the nomad.
"Hello."
The myrmidon merely looked him in the eye and said nothing.
"Hey uh…just to let you know, the people here aint that bad. Sure, that guy just there was an ass but some people are pretty nice. Like me!" He smiled in such a cheesy way it sickened the nomad.
"Yeah..ok…" mumbled the myrmidon.
"Oh! And my name is Shigure before I forget and you are…?"
"It's Guy."
"Hi Guy! Well you better put your back into it today. I hear that there's a shaman within the enemies group and she's a tough one."
Guy nodded but then snapped.
"Wait; did you just say 'she'?"
"Yeah, the shaman is a girl. Strange isn't it? A girl in big, over-sized clothes. This'll be a good laugh."
Shigure laughed his way over to his Wyvern leaving Guy standing in awe. "A shaman girl? We're gonna loose this battle…"
So far, things were going incredibly smoothly. Those with strong defence remained at the front while the rest lagged behind. Blaze sent Marcus to the village nearby. Marcus had no idea why he had to go. It was his duty to protect his lord but an order is an order and he must respect that. Plus, those who questioned Blaze's instructions were severely punished by her or Victoria.
The army was drawing closer and closer to the castle but then they suddenly stopped. Up ahead was a Myrmidon with a Killing Edge.
"This is not good…" mumbled Blaze. "Hector! Go and kill!"
Hector turned round and began to shout. "How the heck am I supposed to go up against a Myrmidon?! AXES LOSE TO SWORDS WOMAN!"
"I DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT!" yelled Blaze. "JUST KILL, KILL, KILL DAMNIT!"
"SHUT UP! I WILL NOT GO UP AGAINST A WARRIOR WHICH CAN CLEARLY KILL ME!"
The argument went on and on and they weren't making any progress. Eliwood tried to calm Hector down and Serra decided to join in the conversation due to the fact that she was bored. Victoria sat down to read her book but noticed that something was amiss. "…Where's Matthew?" She turned round and saw that he was talking to the Nomad. They seemed to be arguing too but she saw that Matthew was smiling. He began to laugh and strangely enough, he took hold of the Nomads hand and ran towards the group.
"Hey, everyone! I got us a new companion! His name is Guy! SAY HI GUY!"
Everyone stopped and starred at the young swordsman and he mumbled. "Hello…"
Blaze remained silent and slapped Hector for a brief moment.
"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT FOR WOMAN?! COME BACK HERE DANGIT! WE'RE NOT FINISHED YET!"
Blaze just ignored the oaf and walked towards Guy and shook his hand rapidly. "Hi, Guy! It's good to see that you've come to join our side! Well, since you're a sword wielder and you possess a 'Killing Edge' why don't you run up and slaughter all for us? It'll make this battle much easier!"
Everyone but Victoria and Guy just fell into despair. "What is she thinking?!" they all thought. "Sending him up is just suicide for the poor guy!"
"Oh and take Victoria with you!" piped up Blaze.
Victoria shut her book and stood up. Guy looked at her and sneered. Victoria looked back and growled. It was clear that they both disliked each other but they both ran up to their doom.
Victoria was spamming her Flux tomes however she was running out. When that happened what would she do? She began to panic. Her concentration fell and soon she was surrounded by soldiers. When they rose up their lances she screamed. Nothing happened. She looked and there was Guy. He had killed them all.
"Are you alright?"
He offered her his hand but she rejected.
"I don't need your charity but thanks."
…Whatever."
There was a moment of silence between the two but then they were rudely interrupted by a loud roar. Guy recognised the roar and stood in front of Victoria, holding up his sword for defence.
"Show yourself, Shigure!"
When Guy shouted that name Victoria's eyes widened. "Sh-Shigure?! It couldn't be…"
Oh, but it was. A great, big Wyvern dropped right in front of the two and roared.
"Hey kid! I see you have switched sides… how unfortunate. That means I have to kill you." Having said that, Shigure smiled and Guy began to grow furious.
"Shut up! You're the one that's going to die!" Guy leapt at the Wyvern but Victoria grabbed hold of his shirt.
"Stop."
She pulled him back and walked towards Shigure. "It has been some time hasn't it?"
The Wyvern grew restless but Shigure made it settle. "Uh… I do believe we haven't met before. Who are you miss?"
"Shi-chan, you hurt me. How could you possibly forget me? Would the name of 'Vic' remind you of anything?"
Shigure pondered for a moment and so did the Wyvern. "Unbelievable" thought Guy.
"Oh!" exclaimed Shi. "I remember now! You're that little girl that hanged about with Tohru and Kyo all the time! Long time no see squirt!"
Vic scowled. "I am NOT a squirt! I have grown since we last saw each other you know!"
"Keep telling yourself that… anyway, I guess I can't kill either of you know so... what am I supposed to do now?"
"Isn't it obvious? Join us!!!"
Guy frowned when he heard this. "Oh, great. If he joins then I have to put up with him and Matthew!"
"Hmm… an excellent idea little Vic! It's settled then! I'll join your little army and keep you company while you sleep!"
"…Don't push your luck you damn dog…!
Hours later…
The air had a feeling of great depression. Eliwood was sad and Hector was with him, trying to comfort him. Guy, the new recruit, was being pestered by Matthew and Shigure. Serra was pestering Matthew as well and began to pester everyone else. Lowen was left to sulk in a corner, Dorcas remained silent while Bartre begged him for a strength test and Marcus stood guard of everything. Blaze just couldn't be bothered with everyone now and Victoria sat at a window, gazing out into the stars. She closed her eyes in thought and soon began to fall asleep. "Why?" she thought. Her ears began to hear nothing. Her mind clear of everything and her eyes not being able to see anything at all. So peaceful…
"You'll come back to me soon…"
Her eyes snapped wide open. "Who's there?!" She turned round only to see Shigure right behind her, starring at her face.
"Argh! Goddamnit Shigure! Don't do that!"
"Haha, sorry about that! I really couldn't resist!"
"I am SO going to kill that mutt…" cursed Victoria under he breath.
"Well anyway you seem really down. What's up?" Shigure then sat beside Vic.
"Nothing is up… really. Though, I will ask you this: When is everyone going to find out about your little 'secret?'"
"Well, I dunno really! I guess when they find out, they'll find out! Simple as that hahaha!"
"Grr, you make me sick" growled Vic as she turned away to look at the wall.
"Aww, don't be like that my darling Vic! You know you love me!"
"EEK! GET AWAY FROM ME YOU CRETTIN!"
Victoria slapped Shigure hard on the cheek but it seemed more like a punch as he tumbled to the ground.
"OUCH! That hurt! Wow, you're some kinda macho chick!"
"GET OUT DAMNIT! LEAVE ME ALONE!" yelled Vic as she threw countless books and objects at Shi. "I'm going, I'm going!" screamed Shigure.
Finally, Victoria had her moment of peace. She resumed from where she left off, not remembering the little voice in her head that would be whispering words constantly. Tears began to swell up and trickled down her cheek. "Why did you leave me all alone? … Sensei?"
