I don't own fire emblem, or any of its characters, but I do own Robin, and he is badass. I had a bad feeling that you'd get confused after Robin went through so many changes, so, I'm gonna give you the characters of Robin, and my other characters again. This is just a precautionary measure.

Name: Robin

Skill's: Luna, Ignis, Astra, swordfaire, Aegis.

Class: Myrmidon

That's all for the bio, because you can probably guess Robins personality. Thanks for listening, now for the story.

The mission was simple, go to Plegia, take any challenge that comes our way, take a powerful sword to prevent Slade from getting it, preventing the apocalypse, and go back. See simple! But every step we took, we kept running into Risin. They were everywhere, destroying the fields, and causing chaos wherever they appear. It's been at least a week, and we should have arrived there by now, but these damn Risen keep cutting us off. Now were only half way there.

My team had been very patient with me, even though I tend to get frustrated with them, especially Ike. For some reason, in battle, Ike tends not to listen to other people. Though were lucky to have him, and not be on the other end of his blade.

Though we had to leave Mila Rose behind, because her healing abilities were needed in the town we passed, and she'd have to stay there until we returned, much to Kai's displease.

It was late at night, and we were camped out in the desert's of Plegia. We were only half way there, and I could tell by the hot, dry air, and the desert land popping up here and there. My feet were sour, and pulsing in a soft pain, my face stung with the sand constantly flying at me. The tent was uncomfortable, with sounds of blowing wind echoing through it.

I couldn't sleep, nor could I focus. There were so many distractions. I had to think of battle plans in case the Risen were to attack, I had to think of the challenges the sword may bring. For all I know, I'm chasing after a legend that doesn't exist. But either way, I have to try, because if I don't, then Yllies tastes it's final goodnight.

I also had to think about Slade, his constant rampages with his Risen, his sadistic personality, it's driving me to madness just thinking about what he could be doing right now.

"Slade..." I muttered his name, lying down, shirtless on my little blanket. It was so hot they'er was no need to have a blanket on me. His name burned my tongue. Why should I have this much hatred for my own brother, to the point where I can't speak his name without sending a bad taste in my mouth?

Eventually, drowsiness began to take me over, and I began to nod off.

Don't fight it, Robin... sleep...

My eye's closed, but reopened at a shadow over my body. Instinctively, my hand went for my sword, but after looking at the figure fully, my nerves calmed down. It was Lucina, her long, beautiful blue hair, and pretty face, yet she still gave off a fearsome glow. She probably inherited it from her father.

"Still thinking about him?" She asked. As what was expected, she guessed it right the first time.

"How'd you know?" I said sarcastically

"I tend to know things." She said, stepping closer to me. "Having trouble sleeping?"

I nodded.

"Well let me help you with that..." She purred.

She sat down in front of me, and gave a weird smile.

"Um, Lucina? What are you doing?" I asked, flustered. My cheeks were growing hotter by the second.

"Helping you." She said, laying her head on my chest, her two fingers walking up my chest.

"L-lucina..." I muttered, my breath catching my throat. "What are you-"

"Shh..." She said, silencing me with her finger. Her face began to move closer, and closer to mine, her hands on my shoulders, hoisting her up to me. By now, my heart was where my throat should be, and my mind raced, and trashed around inside my head.

This cannot be happening, this just cannot be happening...

But it was happening, her face is just millimeters away, finally... just a few more movements...

"BWAH!" I yelled, my entire body rising from my bed. My head scanned the entire tent, there was nobody there.

Oh thank the gods, it was only a dream

I gasped for whatever air was available, trying to find the way for a calm state of mind. Finally, I managed to catch my breath, and start to finally wake up. I clutched my hand to my bare chest, and breathed one last deep breath, before laying back onto my bed.

No, I can't go to sleep again, it's nearly dawn, I've got to wake everyone up.

I sighed, and stood up, to see Lucina stepping into my tent. For some reason, that put my head into a fit of embarrassment.

"Good morning Lucina..." I muttered, my voice, already cracking under the pressure. Just seeing her there right in front of me was a bad reminder of that dream I just had.

"Good morning, Robin." She replied, staring at my stomach. "Oh my god, I could grind meat on those." She muttered.

I didn't know what she was talking about, but somehow, I figure I don't want to know. Maybe it's best to ignore it, and move on.

"Really?" I muttered, sleepily. "I'll be right there, tell them I just woke up."

She nodded; her face was slightly red as she stepped out of the room. I put my Myrmidons garb on, grabbed my sword, and stepped out of my tent. I saw the beautiful night sky, with a small speck of sunlight, peeking it's was over the sandy dunes horizon. The tents were already half put back together, and my crew, already dressed, and ready to go.

"Good morning, guys." I muttered. "Sorry about the late night, I just had a rough night."

I swear, I just heard Lucina cough there...

"What are your orders captain!" Roy cried enthusiastically, his red hair, slightly more unkempt then mine. I swear he just got taller over night.

"Yeah, captain, what are your orders." Ike muttered, mimicking Roy's higher voice badly. "Come on, Roy, don't be a kiss-ass"

"Hey, lay off him" I snapped. "He's just enthusiastic, it'll help if you were the same way, Ike."

Marth, the silent wonder, chuckled slightly at his brothers anger.

"Hey!" Ike yelled."I can still kick your ass, good and proper, so watch yourself!"

I just stood there and shook my head. "Alright, it's time for us leave for Plegian territory. We have to leave now, if we want to beat the crowd." I said, confidently. Whoa, all this leader stuff is more taxing than I thought it would be. I miss Dante.

We packed our things, and trekked our way through the rough, sandy desert. My feet stung already, and we've only began walking. Sometimes, I wonder if I'm really meant to lead this team. I'm weaker than Ike, I'm not as smart as Marth, Roy's smile brings happiness, mine only brings another day at work. I don't even know why Dante chose me, and I bet neither did any of the people here.

No, you can't think that, you have to keep moving, Robin.

After two hours, I spotted something that I'd never thought I'd see in a while. A cave! Yes!

"Let's head here guys!" I cried, my voice growing hoarse, damn I need something to drink.

As we entered, we saw the cave was built, like it was made for royalty. Maybe this is the place where the sword is located. We explored the area around the cave, and some parts inside. Unfortunately we found nothing but dust, dust and more dust.

"Guys, this is another dead end, lets beat it." I muttered, but before we stepped out, a sudden flash blinded me. My entire body was enveloped in a bright light, and suddenly, I was stuck in a black space, filled with stars, as if I was floating around in the night sky itself.

"Welcome, warrior..." came a voice from behind me. I spun around and saw... Ike?!

It was Ike! Except his hair was a lot more unkempt then the one I now. His armor was more olden timed, and looked more like a rangers armor, then a soldier in a war. In his hands, the mighty blade, known as Ragnell.

"So, you and my future self, have decided to take my challenge? Ah... Priam has taught him well. I am impressed." He said happily, looking away.

"Are... are you really Ike?" I said, my voice reaching it's peak.

"The one and only." He smiled.

Instantly my knee bent down, and I found myself bowing. To think I was actually talking to a legend. This is insane!

"It is so a pleasure to meet you!" I said, my voice high pitched. God, I sound like a girl!

"Hey get up kid!" He warned. "Seriously, enough with the formalities."

I stepped up instantly, and stared at him. "Sorry sir..." I murmured, looking away.

"It's okay kid." He said. "You must be here to take my challenge, yes?" I nodded. "Okay then, you must take on three trials, and you must conquer all three. You can have only five fighters in all to help you. Though, at the end, there is another challenger making his way here, with the golden blade, known as Amatsu. I predict he will be here by nightfall. Be ready, young warrior."

As soon as he finished, Lucina, Kai, Marth, Roy, and Ike appeared in the spacial area in which I stayed.

"Whoa! Where am I?" Roy yelled, waving his limbs wildly in the area. Marth just stayed quiet, and poised himself in a standing position, eyes closed, probably thinking of whatever was happening. Lucina clung to my arm, trying to find her balance, much to my displeasure. Kai was trying to catch his Ax, which had been floating in the air.

"Your first trial, is the maze of madness. The name give the challenge away, but I digress. The first two teams to find there way to the blade, at the end of the maze, will be able to get the chance to partisipate in the second challenge. Now Begin!" Came the voice.

The space around us changed, and suddenly, we were in the at we were all at separate ends of the maze, leaving us the option of which entrance to choose.

"Lucina, your with me..." I said at once. "Marth, your with your brother, Kai, your with Roy. Alright, lets go." We all paired off, and went off into the maze. Alright, this is where our journey starts!

Well, which teams do you think will make it too Ragnell? Find out in the next chapter, Review me please!
