Chapter 2: Princess Veloria of Nohr

Veloria's P.O.V:

My names is Princess Veloria. I live in Nohr. Sister of the Nohrian siblings. My cousin, AmyCamila, visits me, due to her having half the blood of a Nohrian.

Here's my story of how I finally get to leave the Northern Fortress. I woke up from a strange dream, mostly thanks to two of my retainers, Felicia and Flora.

"Rise and shine, lady Veloria." Felicia cheerfully greeted me.

"What was that for?!" I angrily, not intentionally, asked.

"That's how we wake up slugabeds in the Ice tribe." Flora answered. Yes, both Flora and Felicia are members of the ice tribe.

"I know, I know." I grunted. Then I sighed. "I wish I would finish this dream I had."

"What dream, milady?" Jakob, my butler, asked me.

"I was in the battlefield, and I was fighting along with the Hoshidans royals, who say I'm their sister, but I have Xander, Camilla, Leo, Elise, Rin and Len as my siblings." I answered.

Then, Gunther, my other butler, entered the room.

"Lady Veloria. You have a visitor."

The visitor was none other than my cousin, AmyCamila... It's kinda odd that father hasn't even used his blade on her.

"Hi, Veloria." She said.

"Cousin. What brings you here?" I told her.

"I was here to give you this before your training starts."

She gave me a picture of her and me when we were little. With us were her twin brother, a boy with withe hair, and her older siblings, a boy with red hair and a girl with teal hair.

"I hope you remember me, Piko, Fukase and Miku as your cousins. And I have to go." she said.

Before she left, Leo entered the room.

"Hello, Princess AmyCamila." Leo greets her.

"Prince Leo. It is good to see you again." she greets Leo.

"So you're being honest about Veloria being your cousin, I see." he says.

"Yes."

"Also, Veloria, Xander is waiting." Leo warns me.

"Ok. I should go, um... cousin."

"Bye, Veloria. Leo. Felicia. Flora. Jakob. Gunther." She says her goodbye to ALL of us. She knows the latter 4 because during one of her visits, she got injured by Leo's horse accidentally attacking her and they healed her, mostly because Flora used her ice powers. And so, we left our ways.

A few minutes later, I was training with Xander, and it was HARD. I had to heal everytime he hit me with his sword, Siegfried.

"Come on, Veloria. Are you just going to keep being a coward?" Xander told me as a advice.

"I won't be a coward this time, Xander." I said. And so, I beat him with one slice.

"Well done, Veloria. You seem to have become stronger." Xander said.

"Well, I've never seen Xander admit defeat easily." Leo, who was looking the whole time, told us.

"Would you not say that to Rin or Len when it's time to start the trials of Fate?" Xander growled.

"Leo. Your collar is inside out." I reminded Leo.

"GAH! Why did no one tell me sooner?!" Leo commented embarrasedly.

"Hello, Sister." I heard Elise say. And guess what... she was here, with Camilla, Rin, Len and GUMI, Rin's only retainer.

"Did you get hurt, my little sister? If you did, I'll take extra-special care of you." Camilla asked worriedly.

"I'm fine. Thanks for being concerned about me, Camilla." I answered.

Rin and Elise hugged me, surprising me.

"You are going to be the best sister ever! I hope we have lots of fun during our adventures!" Elise cheered.

"I can't wait to bring GUMI along with us!" Rin added.

"Um... I'm mostly a Troubador than a fighter..." GUMI said.

"Oh come on, GUMI!" Rin pouted. "You can at least be a Strategist!"

"Anyway, we have good news, Veloria." Len said.

"Good news? What are the good news?" I asked confused.

"Father asked us to take you to the capital." Camilla said, which surprised me.

"Really?!" I commented.

"You can no longer go to the fortress you were raisen in anymore." Camilla... continued.

"That's great!" Elise cheered.

"You can have grat journeys with us!" Rin cheered too.

Many minutes later, I was with Lilith and my 4 retainers, in the entrance.

"Are you sure you'll be safe?" Lilith said.

"Of course, Lilith. We'll be fine." I added. And by we, I'm being acompannied by Gunther and Jakob.

"Good luck, lady Veloria." Felicia said.

"We hope you come back safely." Flora said.

And so, Jakob, Gunther and I left. Boy, I won't miss that fortress...
