A/N: How's it going everybody!


I've got your back.

Summary: A fierce battle commences. Corrin does all he can to protect his family.


Musical Accompaniment: Blinded by Light – Final Fantasy XIII

"Hyah!" Corrin slashed a Mercenary across the chest killing him instantly. Unbeknownst to the half-dragon, a Paladin's Silver Lance was inches away from impaling his chest, until a stray Javelin struck the Paladin in the chest, causing him to fall off.

Alerted by the sound, Corrin turned to see the Paladin dead, while his wife, Oboro rushed up to the corpse, and removed the Javelin.

"You really should start paying attention, you know that." Oboro reminded, as she took out a small cloth, and cleaned the weapon.

"Sorry about that…"

Suddenly, Silas rode up to the couple. "Milord, the rest of the army is unable to keep up with the ever growing numbers. I'm afraid that we must retreat."

Corrin simply nodded. "Very well, retreat now. Make sure no one is left behind."

Silas nodded in response, before riding away.

"Shall we?"

"Very well."

As the couple was about to leave, an all-too familiar call entered their hearing range.

"Mama! Papa! Where are you?!"

"Kana!" Corrin called out, before he and his wife rushed to their daughter's aid.

Kana was surrounded, surrounded by a Master of Arms and a pair of Wyvern Lords. Unfortunately for the dragoness, her Steel Katana cracked, and her Dragonstone was far from her reach as she dropped it when she rushed away.

"Mama… Papa… is this… the end?" Kana whimpered, as she closed her eyes, awaiting the final strike.

"Stay away from my daughter!" her mother called out before switching to her Killer Lance, and striking one of the Wyvern Lords.

"You're gonna regret doing this!" This time, it was her father who struck, whose Yato's glow was the last thing that the Master of Arms heard, before he too was slain by the half-dragon prince.

Knowing very well that he wouldn't last much longer, the lone Wyvern Lord tried to flee.

"You're not getting out of here alive!" Was the last thing he heard before he was caught by a Kodachi before he plummeted to the ground.

"Kana!" Oboro suddenly locked her daughter tightly. "Thank goodness you're okay."

"What happened to you? How'd you get separated?" Her father interrogated.

Kana looked thoughtful for a moment. "Well, I actually was the first one to leave the battlefield, but I accidentally slid down a slope, and I found myself facing them." She pointed to the three corpses of her pursuers before continuing. "Because I wanted to get away, I accidentally dropped my Dragonstone, an my sword cracked. That was when I called for you."

She then dug herself deep in between her parents, crying. "Oh Mama! Papa!"

"There, there sweetie," Corrin rubbed his daughter's back affectionately.

"It's okay Kana. You're safe now." Oboro hugged her daughter tightly.

After a while, Corrin spoke up. "Now then, shall we get back? I'm pretty sure that the rest of the army's probably wondering where we are."

"Yes, we should." Oboro agreed, before planting a light kiss to her husband, as Kana held both her parents' hand as tight as she could.

A/N: And we're done!

Anyone who's read Awakening: Rogue knows that I have the tendency to add Musical Accompaniments to some chapters. Thought I should do it here as well, but not as often as I did in the story.

nhaer042: Glad you enjoyed. Yeah, Corrin SHOULD hurry up.

Anyways, brief hiatus for a while, before I continue. Until next time, BYE!
