Just ONE chapter today ):
Robin's POV
"Are you sure this is the place?" I asked as we entered the sacred ground.
"The town's folk spoke of ruins of Naga." Chrom gritted his teeth "Although I wish they had mentioned the Risen. We'll have to earn the treasure the hard way."
"That just makes it more fun!" Vaike laughed.
When we started moving into the temple, taking out the small clusters of Risen as we went.
"KYAAA!"
I looked over and saw a small girl with short blonde hair trying to beat back a Risen with a simple cleric staff. I used my magic to zap the attacking zombie and run over to her.
"You don't look like a treasure hunter why are you here?"
There was a sudden sparkle in the girl's eyes "There you are Father, I was worried we had gotten separated!"
The girl ran over to me
"I'm sorry what?"
"No harm no foul I suppose, come on let's go home." She said trying to take my hand "The air must be good here you look ten years younger."
"Freeze let's back up to the whole Father thing!" I yelled
I kneeled down and put my hand on her shoulder "Are you from the future with Lucina and Owain?"
"Who are they, and did you just ask me if I was from the future?"
I looked at her confused.
"What, do I have something in my teeth? Hello, it's me Morgan! Your darling daughter, daddy's little girl and all that jazz." The girl smiled and then frowned "Are you sick, maybe you should go back to bed, or I have a staff so I can heal you…but…how do I do that? HNGH my head hurts…"
"Hey now." I rubbed her shoulder "You can't force it."
I believe her story, she has eyes that sparkle like Lissa's, and hair just the same. Owain never mentioned he had a sister…but, seems like me…she can't remember…
"Listen." I looked at Morgan "I know I sound crazy but you came here from the future, you must believe me."
"That's not possible!" she yelled "I don't…I can't-!"
"It's you have to trust me, remember you said I looked younger." I made her look at my face "Someone my age can't possibly have child as old as you. You have yet to be born in this time."
"You do look younger…and your facial hair is missing…but."
"I know it's hard to believe-." I observed some Risen stalking closer "Look this isn't a good place to talk, come with me it's dangerous here we can talk more later."
"I was like you once, alone in a field confused and with no one to turn to, but Chrom and Lissa saved me…if they hadn't…who knows." I faintly smiled at the memory, one of my own "Now I'm going to repay the favor and look out for you."
"Wait you woke up in a field too?" Morgan giggled "Guess I really do take after you!"
"Well at least you kept a pleasant outlook, stay close I'll get you out of here."
"Yes Sir!"
Morgan stayed close as I pushed deeper into the temple.
"Robin that's the one!" Chrom yelled pointing out a Risen "That's the leader!"
"Then let's take him out!"
The Prince and I ran forward and shoved our swords into the monster.
"GARAAAA!" it hissed disappearing to smoke.
Chrom walked up and open the chest "This must be Naga's Tear, I can feel the power within it."
"I bet this baby is sweet!" Lissa cheered.
"Hmm…"
"What is it Robin?" Lissa asked "You've been staring at that girl a lot, I'm not losing you am I?!"
"Nah…she has no memories."
"Just like you." Chrom said.
"But what's wilder is that she claims to be my daughter."
"What?!"
"You're saying we have two kids?!" Lissa smiled "I have to go introduce myself!"
"Wait Lissa." I said grabbing her arm "She has no memories, let me talk to her first okay."
I went over to Morgan and explained everything we knew about the future.
"So the time I come from is in ruins…this is a lot to take in…"
"Yes, and we're fighting to stop that future." I told her "If you stay with us it will mean more fighting."
"I see…I'm sorry after all this talking I still don't remember anything but you." She frowned.
"It'll come back soon." I smiled "No reason to apologize. My past is full of holes but I manage, and so will you."
"I know that if you're with me everything will work out." She smiled and hugged me "You know now that I think about it I do remember one thing."
"Hmm?"
"That I want to be a great tactician like you! Now I can learn first-hand, not that war is a good thing mind you."
"You're certainly optimistic." I smiled "I'm glad you're here Morgan."
"Me to!" she cheered.
"Morgan someone wants to meet you." I said waving someone over.
Lissa walked over and leaned over face to face "Hi there."
Morgan just blinked "Hello…"
Lissa looked downcast "What's with the look, it's me."
"I'm sorry." Morgan frowned "Who are you?"
Lissa's expression only lowered more "I…see…you don't remember me…"
"I'm sorry, am I supposed to." Morgan frowned.
"No sweetie." Lissa smiled "don't be upset I'm not angry or anything."
"Morgan." I looked at the girl "This is Lissa, my wife, and your mother."
Lissa leaned over "I am her Mom right?"
"Well she looks a lot like you so I assume so."
"Mother?" Morgan titled her head "I'm sorry…nothing is coming."
Lissa just frowned before smiling bright "Then we'll have to wait till it does."
"Morgan!"
The girl was yanked from Lissa and engulfed in a hug by someone else "I was looking all over for you!"
"Mother, Father, why is this strange man attacking me?"
"Strange is a funny thing to call your own brother." Owain laughed.
"Brother?" Morgan tilted her head again.
"She has no memories son." I sighed before explaining.
Owain grumbled to himself "This is my fault…we never should have been separated in the first place…"
"It's no one's fault." Lissa said walking up to the children "All that matters is that we're back together, all four of us…there are only four of us right?"
"At last count there was." Owain nodded.
Lissa walked off with Morgan, the two girls talking about clerical things.
"Good, cause if you hiding any other siblings you better speak up now." I said "You're already in deep trouble for not mentioning Morgan."
"Sorry…I didn't want you all to tremble with worry."
"Uh huh…"
Morgan's POV
"Hmmm…" I was reading a book of the army's likes and dislikes even my own, I thought it might jog my memory.
"You idiot just grow up for once!" I heard Severa yell "You're a grown man so act like it!"
I looked over and saw Owain stumble into my tent.
"Oh hey Morgan."
"Hello Big Brother." I smiled "I was just reading. Do you need something, or are you only here to escape the wrath of Severa and Lucina?"
"Umm…it's bad habit for a hero to be idle so I came to see what you were doing." He said sitting down "Are you trying to learn about new magic for healing or something?"
"No these are just notes about myself from the people in camp, I was hoping they might spark a memory or two…is it true that I got five nosebleeds in a single day? I don't remember it at all but it sounds fun."
"Well you're as cheerful and bubbly as ever." My brother smiled.
"Am I, or…was I?" I bit my lip "It sounds kinda familiar? Still everything is weird cause you being my sibling still hasn't clicked."
"Well look how I feel." He smiled "My sister has no memories of me, asking all kinds of questions like a stranger. I'm not sure how to interact with you."
"Well I'm working hard for my memories so don't worry." I smiled "Someday things will stop being awkward, I have a noble goal right, I'm such a selfless girl."
"Humble as ever…"
"What was that?"
"Nothing!" Owain said shocked "Well anyway I'm here to help if you need it. Someday we'll be able to laugh about the old times."
"Right!" I cheered.
I went about my day, doing this and that until I stumbled across father.
"Ah Dad come over here a minute."
"Morgan don't pull." He said freeing himself from my grip "What is it?"
"Nothing~" I hummed "I just want to talk."
"Well I'm supposed to meet with Chrom right now, Let's talk here."
"I can wait…" I pouted.
"You get your pout from Lissa that's for sure." He mumbled "It's nothing urgent?"
"No…Um…I'll be back in a sec."
I scampered off to check somethings "Now I just have to get Father to walk here and he'll fall into my trap."
I ran back over to my parent "Let's go for a walk Dad."
"Morgan I told you I'm a little busy, are you feeling okay?"
We walked a few feet before Father jumped back, avoiding my pitfall.
"Nice try kid."
"How did you know?" I pouted again "It wasn't suspicious looking at all!"
"You're pit is fine, you were the giveaway." He smiled "You were acting strange so I had to be extra cautious, subterfuge is half of any good trap dear."
"I'll get you next time!" I cheered "Also can you help me fill the hole I wouldn't want anyone to fall in."
"How deep is it?!" he gasped.
"I don't know…a couple dozen feet."
"A couple dozen?!"
After a few hours father and I finally filled the hole. After that was dinner and then I went to study a little more.
"It's strange…I remember Dad so clearly but Mother…I have nothing. I don't remember any other Family, not Owain, or Mom, or Uncle Chrom and my cousins…I don't even remember being a princess…"
"What's up Morgan." Someone said hugging me.
"Mother!" I smiled "I was just thinking about you. This is a fun turn of fate…or what did Dad call it…invisible bonds or some mumbo jumbo like that."
"That's an interesting take." Mom smiled.
"So even though I can't remember you we'll always be linked." I smiled "Umm by the way…I don't know why I've forgotten you. Could you maybe help me try and get those memories back?"
"I happy to try."
"Yay!" I cheered "I'll start prepping right away!"
"Well you certainly get your energy from me." Lissa smiled.
