AN: Nothing much to say here, but the fic I referenced in this was The Realm of the New God by ThatOneSelfInsertGuy. I think. I suggest it because it's interesting, but it has some mature themes in later chapters. Anyway, See you later!
AN: Okay, let's go, nothing to say here. Just wondering when Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem is coming out…
Disclaimer: I don't own any video games referenced in this fic, which belong to their own respective franchises/companies. I only own my OC, whose name isn't even technically owned by me.
Third person POV
"Wait, so you mean to tell me that the person from the other day, when the Risen appeared, came out of a portal in the SKY? And she was followed by RISEN? How is that POSSIBLE?" Robin, with a flabbergasted face shouted, walking directly alongside Chrom.
"Yes, it's true. And you don't need to yell in my face…" Chrom, looking peeved, replied. "I've seen weirder things before. Especially this one time with Maribelle and Lissa trying to-"
"C-C-Chrom, I thoubt be agreeb not to talk about that!" Lissa, shivering in the cold winter air, warned her brother. "A-anyway, I'm f-f-freebing, F-F-Frebberick!"
"Don't worry, milady. My horse shall shield you from the winds." Frederick announced, not really caring about the fact that his horse looked rather… blue. As in, hypothermic blue. "Wait."
"What is it, Frederick?" the shoulder-baring prince asked. "Do you hear something?"
"Yes… my Frederick-senses are tingling… I can hear the pitter-patter of armored soldiers, the clang of weapons. The smell of steel… also pies, but that is unimportant. The Feroxi Guard is mobilizing."
"Urk! Well, why? It's not like there're many of us." Robin wondered. "Does our force of ten really look that formidable?"
"Maybe they just dink we're c-c-crazy?" Lissa tried, pointing at Chrom and Vaike, the two most well-guarded, fully-clothed Shepherds.
"Halt! Who goes there?" Raimi announced, possibly the character that gets the least screen time. Even Phila got more screen time and she, errr, umm, well, let us just say that the pegasus trio was NOT completed in this game.
"In the name of House Ylisse, I seek audience with the khans! I have the Mark of the Exalt right here!" " Chrom announced, pointing at his bare shoulder and looking only slightly disturbed at the lances looking ready to skewer him.
"Feh. You don't think we get "Ylissians" everyday, also brandishing their own tattoos? Why, just the other day, there were these strangers claiming to be in a guild of fairies! The most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. What was the pink-haired one going to do anyway, with his puffed up cheeks, blow cold air at us? Hah! The notion is ridiculous. But this has been enough of my rambling, guards attack!"
"Wait, Emmeryn wouldn't like this!" Chrom declared, staring in wide-eyed panic as he began to dash out of the range. Well, I can't seem to see the battlers clearly anymore. They look pixelated and miniature. Enough of me then, you guys want to look through Robin's eyes, don't you?
Robin's POV
"Chrom!" I yelled, rushing to his aid. I noticed that Reflet was running towards me, probably to help. "Don't worry, I'll sa-"
Just like that, Chrom was whisked away by Sumia. I felt a little twinge in my heart as I witnessed it. The rescue done by Sumia, with Chrom perched upon the pegasus, it was as if they were lovebirds. I wonder what would happen if they were married… "Wait! Those lances are still coming at me! Arrgh!"
"That's what I was trying to tell you!" Reflet cried as a lance plunged into his left arm. And right leg. And chest. and left foot. And right hand. An-wow these lancers are accurate. At least I'm dodging, but poor Reflet. "Damn you, Author!"
"Who's this "Arthur" guy? Is he one of those lancers?" I yelled, launching blasts of thunder at them. Suddenly, I felt a surge of power!
"Oh yeah! Critical hit!" I shouted, leaving the lancers dead. Or at least with some free shock therapeutic treatment. "Lissa! We need a healer over here!"
"D-don't worry, I don't think I'm hu-HOLY CRAP THAT HURT!" Reflet screamed, probably from the fact that I was pulling out the lances lodged in his body.
"A-a-alright. I-I-I'm here." Lissa said as she walked towards Reflet, shivering slightly less so than before. I noticed that she also smelled a bit like Frederick's horse? That's it, my inner shipper is… is… AWAKENING! But how to make them get closer, at least, closer than the cuddling that they probably do…
"Hey, Robin! We're back!" Chrom said, snapping me out of my wedding extreme tactician plans. He was pairing up with Sumia, happily perched upon that pegasus. Oh well, time to go back t-WAIT A MINUTE.
"I've got it!" I shouted, probably scaring the crap out of Chrom. Note to self, don't yell in front of your employer. "Chrom, we can pair up in battle! It'll… err, boost our fighting power! And we can strengthen the bonds of teamwork!"
And love, but Chrom doesn't need to know that! Robin sneakily thought to himself. "Lesse, Chrom you can stay with Sumia, Lissa can pair up with Frederick once she's done healing Reflet…"
As it turned out, my plan was working marvelously! We were sweeping the field, and Chrom even found Kellam! I wonder how he missed Kellam, though… it's not as if his hulking suit of armor is covert or anything li-
"Robin, should we defeat their leader?"
"WHAT THE HECK! KELLAM, DON'T SNEAK UP ON ME LIKE THAT!"
"But I've been standing next to you the whole time while you were confidently grinning." he replied, sounding a bit glum. "And I guess that's to be expected…"
"Oh, sorry Kellam. I was too caught up in how fast we defeated all of those troops. I'll try to notice you m-where'd he go?"
"I'm still over here."
"… y'know, I think you should just deal the final blow on Raimi. Frederick, pair up with Kellam instead!"
"B-but Robin-" Frederick stuttered.
"I don't care if you're too busy making out with Lissa, just do it!" I announced, luckily out of Chrom's earshot. As Frederickson galloped over to Kellam, who was probably next to me somewhere, he looked at me with a critical glare that could kill. It's a good thing we're on the same side!
"Alright, who's next!" poor, poor Raimi had cried, surrounded by us, the Shepherds. "Ah! You, the knight in shining armor! You're next!" she had announced, foolishly targeting Frederick.
She dashed ahead from her gate, lunging towards Frederick… only to be stabbed by a rather unimpressed looking Kellam, who simply stood there. I wonder what would happen if he became a thief… it would be really dangerous, but a tactician's gotta do what he's gotta do!
"S-so your claims were true…" Raimi whispered as she fell over.
"Don't worry. I don't blame you for missing Kellam." Chrom said, walking over to Raimi, looking relieved that the battle was over. "Can we meet the Khans now?"
"A thousand apologies, Prince Chrom. I truly took you for brigand impostors. But no frauds could ever wage a battle as you just have! I will send word of your arrival to the capital and escort you there personally." Raimi declared.
"Let me help you up." Chrom replied, not noticing the hateful glare that Sumia threw his way for leaving her. The murderous vibes were chilling, to say the least.
"Well, her mood certainly changed." Reflet mumbled.
"You mean Sumia's?" I questioned, also whispering
"In this kingdom of warriors, strength speaks louder than words. I should have known better than to overestimate the value of diplomacy here…" Frederick had stated, probably only hearing Reflet. Then I noticed that Sumia was glaring at him too, so I figured that Frederick had trained in detecting murderous auras.
"Can we go now Chrom?" Lissa stated, looking annoyed at my decision to separate her and Frederick, her beloved.
"Certainly, Lissa. It's not getting-wait! My Chrom-senses are twitching!" Chrom declared. Wait, his… "Chrom-senses"? What are those? And why do I suddenly feel worried?
"I sense something in the distance!" Chrom shouted. "A potential Shephard! Frederick, we must go immediately!"
"Certainly, milord!" Frederick replied, letting Chrom on and jumping… off of the… fort…
"We'll be back in 3 days! Keep the khans entertained! You'll do fine!"
Those were Chrom's final words as he and Frederick rode off into the distance, probably tiring that poor horse to death with Chrom's… actually, it's just Frederick with the armor. Chrom's just a lightly clothed prince.
"Siggggghhhhhhhh. And this is how we found you Robin." Lissa explained. "It wasn't as crazy as that, but that's why he started the patrol. Said he had a premonition."
"Wait a second… what do we do now?" I sighed. "Also, did you just say the word 'sigh'?"
AN: And I've already broken from canon. Well, since the first paralogue was unlocked after Chapter 3, this is how I imagined the situation would've been like. I hated writing for frozen Lissa. And now Donnel's next. Darn. Oh yeah, and all the other features are unlocked, so I guess here's where the story starts getting interesting. See you later!
