Chapter 2

Me: Guess who's back? *poses and says like Yang in RWBY Season 2 episode 4*

Topaz: FINALLY! ON WITH THE CHAPTER!

Me: Wow. You've never been this excited for me to post a chapter. Well, someone needs to say the disclaime-

Topaz: *Super hurriedly* She doesn't own Fire Emblem, and songs and ocarinas from Legend of Zelda. She does own me and this plot, so no touchy. NOW ON WITH THE PROGRAM!

Me: *covers ears* Ouch. Okay, okay, roll film.

Chapter 2: OMG, my Big Sis! Yay! Yay! Oh wait, Bandits! Feel the power of my awesome attack music and a freaky voice in my head!

"L-Lynny…" I somehow choked out.

XxLYN'S POVxX

As we got there, the girl who was running, I'm assuming she cried for help, looked over at us, and looked relieved. Where have I seen her before? I frowned. She looked so familiar! The answer's on the tip of my tongue- Oh, Father Sky. As she looked at me, I finally realized why I recognized her. She was my missing little sister. Topaz, I now knew, and I both stopped moving. Robin, Eliwood and Hector all looked at me and frowned. "Lyn?" Eliwood asked. "What is it?"

"Hm? What's wrong?" Hector demanded. I felt a tear falling down my cheek, and when they saw it, they were alarmed. "Lyn?!" they exclaimed.

"Oh father sky…" I murmured. Finally, I had control of my limbs again. I bolted off as fast as I could as soon as I did, straight towards Topaz, screaming her name, and surprising the entire company.

I was close enough now to see the tears on her face. She turned directly towards me and started running as fast as she could in her exhausted state. "LYNNY!" she cried, jumping directly into my arms, both of us sobbing and falling too our knees.

XxTOPAZ'S POVxX

"Lynny," I sobbed, "Oh father sky, I thought I would never see you again!"

Lyn nodded, also sobbing. "I felt exactly the same way." I looked up at her happy face, and felt the happiest I've been in 5 long years. I buried my face into her shoulder, breathing in her scent.

Then, someone HAD to ruin the moment. "Oi, Lyn! Who the heck's this?!" It was the blue-haired ax boy that was bellowing for all to hear, with red-head behind him. Joy. When we stood up, I hid behind Lyn.

When she caught up, White hit him on the head, with with her fist. "Hector! Don't shout so loud! I think you scared her!" Hector, huh? Well, I already like White. Hector? Not so much. Then Reddy looked at Big Sis and asked a lot quieter, "Lyn? You know her?" Lyn nodded and kept on beaming, not even bothering to wipe away her tears. "Robin, Eliwood, Hector, this is Topaz. My best friend, and my little sister." So, Red's name is Eliwood, and White's name is Robin.

"SISTER!?" they all exclaimed, astonished. She nodded, still happy. Then she looked at me. "Topaz, you don't have to hide," she soothed, "They're my friends. You have nothing to worry about." Comforted by this, I came out, but still holding onto Lynny. We just got together, and there's no way I'm letting go now. I nodded my head, acknowledging them.

Robin crouched down, making us eye level. "So, you're Lyn's little sister?" I nodded again, but before I could speak, Lyn shouted "Topaz, Robin, look out!", pushing us out of the way, and holding her sword in a hurried defensive stance. Right when the big boss of the bandits took a swing, aiming towards Robin and I. But she was too slow. She got injured, badly. "LYNNY!" I screamed. Tetley, the big baddie, chuckled, and kicked Lyn hard, sending her 10 feet away. Then, bandits swarmed around Eliwood, Robin, Hector, and I. As they were fighting to protect me, I saw Tetley head towards Lyn.

'Alex!' I thought, 'Really need a song suggestion right now!'

'Serenade of Water… Play it to protect your friends...' He thought back.

So, I'm not sure how, but I got through the dunderheads. He tends to help me occasionally with things like this when I'm REALLY desperate. We still can't do it that much, as it's exhausting and we just started. My mind went blank then, no memory of what I did, aaaaaas usual... I just remember the voice and the song, suddenly gaining strength and knowledge previously unknown to me, almost in a trance. I ignored Hector and Eliwood's protests, hearing a harp give me the song needed. I jumped in front of Lyn, and started weaving my song after the harp finished. As I played, ignoring the shouts and gasps, water appeared, creating a shield around me and Lyn. When Tetley tried to smash through it with his ax, it was stopped cold. As I stepped outside the shield, still in a trance-like state, I heard his voice again. 'Bolero of Fire… A song to fight your enemies… a song ready to burn all in the way…' As everyone stopped fighting, looking at me, before I started playing, I mumbled (mostly) the same words.

"Bolero of Fire… a song to fight my enemy… a song ready to burn all in the way…" Funnily, just as the harp finished the song, I finished talking and started playing. Just a great coincidence, right? As I was playing, fire pulsed around me until I finished the first eight notes. When I moved off of the 8th note, the fire consumed him. Everyone, not counting Lyn, as she was in my shield and could already barely move, backed up, except for me. I somehow knew it wouldn't hurt me. Let me just say, I was right. Whenever the fire came close to me, it bent out of my way. Then, tendrils of fire came and started to find all the bandits. Whenever it came near my friends, a.k.a the army Lyn came with, it moved away without me saying (or playing) a word. None of my friends got hurt. All but one of the bandits perished. As soon as the fire left, I ran up to the last remaining bandit, Harry, coincidentally, and grabbed a lock of his hair, making him look at me in fear. Then, I opened my mouth, and hissed words I had no control over, but knew the reasoning and meaning behind them was totally true.

"Tell your master, the one that ordered my capture, that I will NEVER go to him, for whatever reason he wants me. I swear on my ancestor's grave, that if he sends you back to get me, I will not be this merciful." At that, I tossed him away, watching him run in fear to his master.

In the corner of my eye, I saw some knights prepare to go after him. I gave them a side look and said, "Hold. I'd prefer him to be alive when he reaches his master. It may not seem like it, but he still has his uses, and I'm not a person that wishes for bloodshed." I felt a tear falling down my cheek, but that, I guess, worked to my advantage, because they stopped. Just then, Robin came running over to me.

"Topaz," she hurriedly told me, "You have to get rid of that shield! If not, then Lyn may bleed out! She needs medical attention- FAST!" I looked at her, and calmly started walking to my Big Sis. "Do not worry," I reassured Robin, "That shield is made to protect someone's life. Not just their body, but their life itself. This shield will slow the bleeding immensely until she is taken out, supply her with all needed air, and stabilize her body, at least until the castor runs out of power." Okay, Alex, I have no idea where I got all of that, but I'm not complaining.

Robin just stared at me until we got there. Then, once again, my little friend spoke up.

'The Song of Healing… a song to heal the mind… a song to cure poisons… a song to slow the coming of death itself and give time to save a life… ' I found myself muttering this as I started to let the shield dispel. People within hearing distance looked at me oddly, but soon stopped when I began to play the song, the Song of Healing, eyes closing at the song's soothing melody. Lyn's breathing became less labored, and she gained a more peaceful look. I looked at the apparent healers in the eyes, and let my eyes clear of the fog that keeps my thoughts out of my eyes, and let my eyes become as readable as a book. Go and heal her already while she's stabilized!

They widened their eyes in surprise, then nodded. A few minutes of constant playing (repeating it over and over again) and their constant healing soon got her to the good-as-new condition. When the healers gave me the a-ok, I stopped playing with a sigh of relief. FINALLY, I was done! Lynny wasn't gonna die! Ya-ouch. Need air. Must breath. I heard a groan and looked up. As soon as I saw Lyn get up and open her eyes, I smiled and fainted, dully aware of everyone shouting, Lyn the loudest…

XxROBIN'S POVxX

I just stared in amazement as Topaz played her song. It seemed to be healing Lyn, not to mention this soothing effect. Her eyes had cleared for a minute, and you could almost hear what she was thinking! Our two healer's eyes widened, then got to healing Lyn. When Serra and Priscilla nodded, and she stopped playing with a sigh. It's amazing how she played that without a breath and still isn't taking o-

"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAASP!" Never mind. Then, as soon as Lyn got up, she smiled and fainted.

"W-what?! Serra, Priscilla, get over here!" I yelled as I caught her.

"Topi!" Lyn cried, completely ignoring the fact she was almost dead five minutes ago running up to us and grabbing Topaz. (A/N: Just so you know, Topi is pronounced Tope-ee, like Mokuba's nickname in Yu-Gi-Oh - Moki) "Topi?! Are you okay?!"

"5 more minutes…" Topaz mumbled. Lyn got a surprised look on her face, then started laughing.

"Oh yeah, she's alright. Just spent." Lyn giggled. I gave her a questioning look.

"You see," Lyn explained, "Whenever she is out of energy, usually magical, she tends to sleep it off. Though, from the looks of it, not that much anymore."

"How in blazes can you tell that just by looking at her?!" Hector exclaimed. Lyn giggled harder.

"Because," she laughed, "Back when we were kids, as soon as she was spent, she would just fall into a deep sleep right there, and she doesn't talk when she's in a deep sleep. If she's in a light sleep, or if she's half-asleep, then she'll occasionally talk. You shouldn't count on it happening much, though."

"Well, I'd imagine that she's been traveling for a while. Her shoes are incredibly worn out. Her cloak and weapons are the only things new. Even that odd pouch is old." Eliwood observed.

Lyn nodded. "I get the feeling that these people were behind her disappearance. She's not even fed properly. If it was that she was just on her own, it would be different. She's a hard worker, and would have either made her way to the nearest town to find work or directions, or she would have found us. Also, I know because of when she saw Hector, or more specifically, his axe."

"What the heck does my ax have to do with this?!" Hector yelled.

When Lyn opened her mouth to answer, we heard a different voice cut her of.

"It's because of my fear of axes."

Me: Welp, that's all!

Topaz: Really? Another cliffhanger? How many must you have?

Me: Well, there was originally more to this chapter, but I decided not to do it because I was stumped. So, all that's in the next chapter.

Hector: Well, can you get on with it! I need to know why the blazes she's afraid of axes, and why she's even afraid of my axe even though I was with her bloody sister!

Me: … So, is 'bloody' literal, or…

Hector: Of course it wasn't…..! You know what!? Fine! I give up! You're too annoying, and this is only the second annoying thing you've done! *storms off*

Me: Geez, why's he in a bad mood?

Robin: … It's nothing.

Me: You sure?

Robin: Yes. (Once you grow up mentally, you'll be good.)

Me: Hm?

Robin: N-nothing, heh-heh, just go on already…..

Me: ….. *stands there staring for a while, then smiles brightly* Right! Well, for the 3 of you who reviewed, thanks a lot! Well, review and read, BYE!
