The Princess and the Mercenary

Me: Yay! Another story everyone!Lyndsay: Yeah, : What's wrong, Lyndsay?Lyndsay: Roys 5

*** I can't believe Roy was here. He was wearing his usual red and dark blue tunic, with his blue chest armor. His hair a little redder from the blood. "Where did you guys find him?" I asked, as I turned to Soren. "Just outside of Daein. We were leaving when we spotted him on top of a pile of dead bodies." Soren told me, not taking his eyes off of Roy. I looked at Roy and put a hand to his forehead. He wasn't that warm. "We need to get him out of here." I told Soren. "Where are we going to take him?" Soren asked, as he glanced up at me. "We can take him to Crimea. They can treat him there." I argued. "He can stay here." Soren whispered. "He is going to die, Soren. He is our brother. We need to help him." I shot at him. "I don't want him to die, but I don't want to transport him. He is fine here. Mist can take care of him." Soren spat at me. "Meanie."Mist POV*

* I was kind of worried about Soren and Lyndsay. They have been in the medical tent for a while. I rocked back and forth on the log I was sitting on. "What's wrong, Mist?" Ike asked me. My head snapped up and smiled at him. "Nothing. I'm fine." I babbled. Rolf sat next to me and smiled at me. "Mist, what is really wrong?" He whispered, just enough for the both of us to hear. "Lyndsay and Soren have been in the tent for a while now. Do you think they have a connection with that one boy?" I whispered back. Rolf shrugged. "It could be their brother. You never know. We can ask later, if you want." I nodded. "Rolf, what do you think that Daein commander was talking about earlier? About Lyndsay having to marry King Ashnards son? Do you think she'll do it?" I whispered. "I don't think so. She is stronger than any other female fighter I have ever seen, even Tatania." Rolf snickered. "That's a surprise." I giggled. I guess we were giggling louder than I thought. "What are you two laughing at?" Oscar asked us. We both went red and looked down. "Nothing. It's an insider." Rolf told them. "It seems you guys know something we don't." Shinon pushed. "No, we don't know anything." I lied. That was a bad move, because Ike always knows when I'm lying. "Mist, I think if I effects the group, you must tell us." Tatiana told me. We didn't know what to say after that. Luckily, Ranulf came in and helped us. "Look, if they don't want to tell you, they don't want to tell. And it doesn't concern the group. At least, I don't think it does." Rolf and I shot him a nasty glare. "Ah, so you guys got Ranulf in it too, huh? You are going to tell us one way or another." Ike told me. I looked over at Rolf, who looked like he was ready to crack. Then, he did. "OK, I'LL TELL YOU! THE TRUTH IS EMILY IS-" He was cut off when Ranulf pinned him down and I placed a hand over his mouth. "Shut up, Rolf!" I hissed at him. Just then, Lyndsay and Soren walked out of the tent. Everyone turned and looked at them. "Why am I being stared at?" Lyndsay asked, with a nervous chuckle. She noticed Rolf on the ground and blushed a little bit. "I don't know. You tell us." Shinon asked me. "I have no idea what your talking about." She told them. "That's not Rolf told us. Or at least he was trying." Gatrie added. I wished I could just slap all of them."Do you really wanna know?" She asked everyone. Uh-oh."We need the truth, Emily." Ike said. "Alright. I will tell you. Actually, I will show you." She told everyone. How is she going- uh-oh!Lyndsay POVI decided to show them my real self. I am only showing them the wolf part. I smiled and in an instant I was in my wolf form. I sat down and smiled at everyone. The all looked a little shocked and confused."You mean, you're a laguz?" Ike asked me. I nodded."Dude, that's fucking cool!" Boyd exclaimed, as he started petting the top of my head. I started panting and letting my tongue stick out, mimicking a dog. I looked over at Soren, who was obviously pissed off. Ranulf and Mist let Rolf up and he ran over to me."Can you give me a ride now, Emily?" He asked, as he wrapped his arms around me. I shook my head slightly."So this is the big secret you guys were keeping from us." Oscar asked."Bigger than you think." I told them. My eyes went wide when I realized that I just talked."You can talk too?" Boyd cried. He was really taking an interest in me."Yeah. Most laguz have that ability. Since my Great-Great Grandfather could talk, I am able to talk." I told them."You mean, this is a trait?" Soren asked, a little annoyed."Yeah. I got it and you didn't." I put a paw over my mouth when I realized what I just said. "Nice going, idiot!" Soren cried in anger. I chuckled nervously. "Whoopsie." I said. "You guys are related?" They all asked in unison. "Yes we are. Unfortunately." Soren sighed. I just smiled. "Yup." "Let me take a wild guess: That red haired guy in there is also your brother?" Shinon asked. "His name is Roy. And yes he is." I confessed. "So, Soren. You have been keeping this a secret from us why?" Gatrie asked. By now, I was in my human form. "It's the way we are. The way we were raised. Nobody could even tell we look alike and we used it to our advantage. The only thing that tells were siblings is this symbol." Soren pointed to his forehead and I pulled down my top slightly to show off my symbol of an 'I' "That's a good trait." Titania told us. We both nodded. "Speaking of traits, Emily. I need to talk to you. ALONE." He put a lot of stress on the last word. I knew this was coming
