Robin's POV

"What do you make of it?" I asked sitting on a log in the snow.

"I hope she knows what she's doing." Chrom said.

We had come across some old ruins, and someone, a girl, in heavy armor was being set upon by bandits.

"Please do something!" a woman yelled "I'm worried my friend is walking into a trap. My husband already fell to that man's tyranny and now I feel the same will happen to her."

"All right we'll see what we can do." Chrom said standing up "Let's move Shepherds."

We marched into the ruins and started to dispatch the man's aids so the girl could fight herself. the ruins had a second level and people were constantly streaming out of it. Luckily we were more than equipped to deal with them.

"Gaius get that door open." Chrom said.

"I'm working on it."

"Allow me." Anna smiled "Turn this way…and to the left and…"

*Click*

"We're in!"

The gate opened and Chrom moved in to back the girl up.

"Die fiend!"

Chrom leaned around the lance and slashed it away.

"You parried my strike." She gasped "Wait…do I know you? I feel like we've met before?"

"Can you lower the spear." Chrom asked since it was pointed at his chest.

She complied.

"We came to help you, you can't fight them all alone." I said "we'll take the rabble you have your duel."

"You'd do this for a stranger?"

"Is that a problem?"

"No…thank you."

She ran off to attack the wizard and the rest of us kept the others out.

"HYAAA!"

"AHHHAA!"

I looked over and the enemy wizard was impaled on a spear.

"Blast…it all…"

"And so the good guys win again." Sully laughed.

"Thank you for your help but other things lie ahead of me, by the way my name is Kjelle." The girl said "I need to find my parents."

"Well that's rough." Sully sighed "Got any ideas?"

"Just my mother's ring, that's all…" the girl said holding up a trinket.

"Mind if I have a look?" Sully asked.

"Go right ahead." The girl said handing it over.

"Hmm…this sure looks like mine." Sully said holding up the ring "It's is mine!"

"Huh?" Lucina perked up "Kjelle!"

"Sister!"

"Seems you have two." I laughed at Chrom.

"Two daughters...Shoot me now."

"Father come this is Kjelle your other daughter."

"Yeah I'm coming." Chrom sighed "I kinda wanted a son too…"


A few days later…

"This is a nice little town." I said looking around.

"It seems like some sort of harvest festival." Chrom explained as we walked.

"Everything smells delicious!" Lissa cheered.

We took a walk around and found a nice little place to get a bite to eat.

"Wel-COME!" the man yelled "It's…It's…"

"Huh?"

"Maybe he likes royalty?" Lissa pondered.

"Sorry we're closed." He said slamming the door in our face.

"How rude." Lucina pouted.

"Was it something we said?" Brady wondered.

We decided to try someplace else but each store slammed the door in our faces.

"People don't seem to like us." Chrom said.

"Yeah I figured it out." Gaius said walking up "This place is getting attacked by thugs every so often."

"Yes." Frederick spoke up "It seems you are their leader."

"Just great." Chrom sighed.

"Look at the bright side you're important enough to be impersonated." Kjelle said.

"Any ideas where they are?" Chrom asked.

"Out of town to the north." Gaius said.

"Let's take care of them, I won't have people sullying our name like this."

We trekked out to the nearby plains before the sun was blocked, up above was a girl with blazing orange hair riding a Pegasus.

"All who pretend to be Chrom will answer to me!" the girl yelled "Surrender or face my spear!"

"She sure is eager." Chrom sighed "Well Robin? She seems convinced we are the impostors."

"Does she think we're fakes because I don't act like a princess?" Lissa asked.

"I doubt it." I pointed at Owain who was fighting his hand again "Our family doesn't necessarily reflect high class…"

"Owain, honey stop that!" Lissa yelled running off "We don't look regal enough!"

"Maybe you should show her the truth." I told Chrom.

"I will strike you down!" the girl yelled circling above us.

The enemy force was assembling among some ruins.

"Yeah!" Stahl was riding through the enemy, slashing through people, Sully wasn't far behind stabbing with her lance or blocking with her shield.

"You in Gregor's way." The older man said breaking a lance with an axe.

"HYA!"

"GRRRAAA!"

In the sky Cordelia had engaged the girl and it wasn't long before the red head flew back.

"She's incredibly skilled." Cordelia said "It's like she trained under me."

"I've got her." Chrom said.

"HYAAA!"

The girl flew passed and Chrom jumped up and grabbed her off the steed.

"Listen to me, they are lying to you." Chrom said.

"Let me go you brigade!" she said flailing around "I have nothing to say to a impostor of my daddy's friend."

"Huh?"

She wriggled free and picked up a spear "I'll cut you down where you stand!"

She tried to attack Chrom but she was stopped "That's enough from you cupcake."

Gaius picked up her spear "You're starting to piss us off kid so go home, this ain't a place for a runt like you."

The thief walked off, but the girl was staring in awe.

"I see now." Chrom smiled "Welcome to the past."

"Wait…you know."

"You're from the future correct, Lucina and the others have told us all about that."

"Lucy is here?!" the girl perked up.

She looked around and the blue haired girl slicing down a bandit.

"You're…the real Chrom." She gasped.

"Last time I checked I was." He smiled.

"This is so embarrassing!" the girl whined "I'm so stupid! Wait that means the other guy is a phony, I'm gonna get him for this!"

The girl ran back to her horse and flew off.

"Well that explains a lot." Chrom said "Let's move!"

We pushed through the first line, but when we passed the ruins a whole new army of mercenaries was there. They charged but with a little assistance from Owain and Inigo we had no trouble getting passed them.

"I'll kill you now." Tharja laughed firing off a spell "Haa…"

"Hey just leave me alone!"

I looked over and the girl was closing in on the man.

"How dare you impersonate my favorite uncle!" she yelled "RAHHH!"

He was running in a tizzy to avoid her stabs. But he managed to duck into the trees and even though we sent people after him we never found the guy.

"Oh poo, I really wanted to catch him." The girl pouted "Jerk face."

We went back into town and told them the bandits had been dealt with, they were very grateful.

"Umm Sumia, do you have a moment?" the girl form before asked walking up.

"Oh you're that girl from before, um…hello, what's your name?"

"Cynthia, my name is Cynthia!"

"That's an adorable name." Sumia smiled.

"I know, I love it." The girl smiled wide "My Mom gave me that name it was a gift…from you."

"Me but…I've never named a child."

"But you will." The girl nodded quickly "In the future, where I'm from, Mom. See you gave me a ring that matched yours…or you will give it to me, boy this is confusing."

"So you're my daughter?" Sumia asked.

"Sure are!" the girl said running forward "Hugs-WAH!"

She tripped and fell on her face "Ouchy…I'm okay."

"Yeah we're related." Sumia sighed "Let's see, you dropped this spear head."

"Oh please give that back!"

"Why are you lugging this around?"

"Because it's going to be the tip for my spear, I haven't made it yet, you said we'd make it together…but…you broke your promise and never…came home."

Cynthia looked like she was about to start sobbing.

"How could you do that?! You were…invincible."

"So I…died." Sumia sighed "I guess I'm not so great after all."

"You're great to me." Cynthia smiled.

"Well it seems like I have a wonderful child." Sumia smiled back "I'll help you make that spear."

"YAY!" the girl jumped forward and hugged her mom "I love you Mommy!"

"Umm by the way…who is your father?" Sumia asked.

"Papa should be around here somewhere…let's see…There he is!"

"Are…you sure?" Sumia gulped.

"See I have Daddy's hair.

"You know I'd be a pretty bad thief if I let people stare at me all day." Gaius said walking over "What's with the look?"

"PAPA!"


Later…

"You're not upset are you?" Owain asked.

"No I'm not upset." I sighed.

"Oh that's good."

"I'm furious!" I snapped "What the hell is wrong with you, you start babbling like you possessed your gonna give you mother night terrors!"

I stood back and took a deep breath "I'm happy you're okay. But what the heck were you doing? Reading a script for a play?"

"I don't not use a script!" Owain yelled "This is all improve…I mean authentic. I am a hero who traveled across time."

"Yeah I know scion of the exalt bloodline. I don't know how you spout this stuff and not feel any shame."

"Ashamed, far from it!" Owain said "Although I can't blame you for not understanding my aesthetic. After all you are from a simpler time…"

"I don't want to be form a future where everyone talks like you."

The air felt tense and I saw a bush move.

"DOWN!"

I tackled the boy.

"AHHH!" I hissed as I felt an arrow hit my shoulder

Damn that stings.

"Father! Your shoulder!" Owain yelled.

"Don't pull it out!" I screamed.

I pulled my son behind the nearby rocks "There are archers in the trees, I've got your back, and I won't let them hurt you."

I took a second to assess the situation "There's too many, and I'm wounded we have to fall back."

"Yes sir."

They likely targeted us because I'm Lissa's husband, it's easy to cripple a country if you kill a member of the royal family, not the first time I've been a target, but I rather it be me than Lissa or Chrom.

We ran through the forest, I was a few steps behind because there was an arrow in my shoulder, but after a bit we lost our pursuers.

"We should be fine here." I said as we stopped in a meadow.

Owain was off looking at a stream.

"Owain?"

"Why did you take that arrow, you could've been killed!" he yelled "This…is just how it happens…"

"How what happens?"

"Dad…"

I walked over and saw that he was crying. I placed my free arm on his shoulder.

"Why are you crying?"

"It's…nothing." He said wiping his face off "Just more of me being silly. Forget I said anything. I'll go get Mom to look at your shoulder."

"I'll be right here." I said.

Owain ran off.

What spooked him so much?

Lissa returned shortly after, she scolded me for being reckless and cleaned my wound. After that the three of us went back to camp and at dinner together, Owain was oddly quiet.
