Alright guys, here is the third chapter! Sorry for the late update, but someone left a review asking me to change my format. So I fiddled around with it trying to find out what worked best. Eventually I just slightly altered the format, because this format is what I'm most comfortable with and I've used is on all other stories I've written.
By the way, this is my first fanfiction, not first story however.
Anyways hope enjoy what happens in this chapter!
Chapter 3
The team had long quit their teasing. They had started preparing for the inevitable battle that was to come. "How didst the Reaper come about?" Fia asked. "We don't really talk about that." Asura replied. "May I ask why?" She asked. "Well…it's personal." Serov said to Fia. "How personal?" Asked Malenia. "Very personal, he took everything from me." He responded. "Same goes for me." Glenn said while raising his hand. "And does thou have a personal reason Titan?" Ranni asked Asura. "No, I'm just protecting my daughter." He replied. "I see…" Ranni said with a saddened expression. "I don't care how long it takes, I'll kill that bastard someday." Serov said with a hint of anger in his voice. "Right now let's just focus on getting Miquella back in one piece." Glenn said to the group.
"Sir, we have arrived at our destination." Creed said. "Alright, let's get down there!" Glenn shouted to the team. Glenn opened a portal and walked through it followed by Serov and Asura. Malenia, Ranni and Fia were still a little uneasy with this method of transportation. "We have arrived at Moghwyn Palace." Creed stated. They walked into what looked like a throne room. And upon what appeared to be an altar, laid Miquella, in a cocoon. His arm was stuck out, with blood pouring off of it. A pool of blood accumulated in front of the altar. Out of the pool of blood, came a grotesque being. It took Miquella's hand and said. "Dearest Miquella." "Wait wait wait, there are two red flags here." Glenn said to Serov and Asura. "He's Miquella's half brother, so it's incest, and it's pedophilia!" Glenn said with malice. Asura and Serov were equally enraged. "I am not going to stand by and watch a crazy, gay yandere steal a kid's life." Asura said while cracking his knuckles.
"Welcome honored guests, to the birthplace of our dynasty!" Mogh said. However, he quickly retreated. "Malenia!? W-what are you doing here?!" He asked with great surprise. "I have come to retrieve my brother." She replied. "No, Miquella is mine! And mine alone!" He shouted. As soon as he said this, a fist met his face. "Aaughh!" Mogh screamed as he flew across the room. Serov stood there with his fist still clenched. "Did you ask his sister if you could take him?" Serov asked Mogh. "Why would I need to do that?" He asked back. "Because they're very close!" Serov yelled. "I don't care, you'll never take Miquella from me!" Mogh shouted. "But I already have." Glenn said with Miquella's cocoon levitating beside him. "No! You can't!" Mogh yelled at Glenn.
"I'll let Malenia deal with you." Serov said while motioning towards Malenia. "N-no!" Mogh shrunk back in fear as Malenia approached him. "Malenia, please I only wanted to-" Mogh was cut short as Malenia kicked him back. "I'll give you a chance to fight back." She said, "Thou art foolish to do so!" Mogh said. Malenia and Mogh clashed with great power. However, the fight didn't last long. Malenia easily defeated the Lord of Blood. "Please Malenia, dost thou think of me so lowly?" Mogh pleaded. "You took my brother while I slept!" Malenia said. "Thou hast taken a lord, no?" Mogh asked. "Thou dares to speak of my lord?!" Malenia yelled. "I want to serve Miquella, why do thy deny me this?" Mogh asked Malenia. "You don't deserve to live." Malenia said while she beheaded the omen.
Malenia walked over to Serov and knelt in front of him. "My lord, we must returneth to the Haligtree to let Miquella finish his transformation." Malenia said to Serov. "And how long would that take?" Serov asked Malenia. "I don't believe I know, I apologize for my stupidity." She said, "There is no need to apologize, I was just making a point." Serov responded.
"Don't worry Malenia, we have a way to physically mature your brother quickly." Glenn said. "Really?" Malenia's expression lightened up. "Yes, but it hasn't been tested on an actual body yet." He replied. "What doth thou mean?" Malenia asked. "He means it's still a theory." Serov said. "Do what thou hast to my lord." Malenia said as she kneeled before Serov. "Alright guys, let's head back to the Brotherhood." Glenn said to everyone.

Glenn stood in a room that looked like an experimentation room. He took Miquella out of his cocoon and laid him out on the table in the middle of the room. Glenn made sure he was properly placed on the table. Glenn noticed that despite his size, Miquella looked like he was a bit younger than a teenager.
"His vitals are normal." Creed said. "Good, he has to be conscious in order for this to work though." Glenn said. "Would you like me to wake him up sir?" Creed asked. "Yes please." Glenn replied. "Understood sir, administering mental separation." Said Creed. With what appeared to be a small shock, Miquella's body jolted and he woke up with a shout. "Aaa!" "Hello Miquella, my name is Glenn." Glenn said to him. "What do you want?" Miquella said as he shrunk away from Glenn. "Nothing, I'm just helping you so you can help us." Glenn responded. "Us?" Miquella asked. Glenn motioned over to Serov and Malenia. "Malenia!?" Miquella asked in surprise. "Where are we!? What is happening-" Malenia stopped Miquella by holding a finger to her lips. "These people are going to help your body mature to adulthood." She said.
"How will you be able to help me?" Miquella asked. "They are the three legendary heroes." Malenia said. "Oh…I see." Miquella said. "Listen, this is going to hurt Miquella." Glenn said. "I expected that thou wouldst say that." Said Miquella. "Malenia, let's go to the observation room." Serov said. "As thy wishest, my lord." Malenia replied. "Wait…your lord?" Miquella asked. "Yes dear brother, I finally…met my match." She replied with a small smile. "I can't believe what I'm hearing." He said while he put his hands on his head. "Well? Shall we proceed?" Miquella asked Glenn. "Gladly." Glenn replied.

Miquella sat up in a bed, and it was a very neat one. "What happened…?" He trailed off. Miquella looked down at his body. "My body…it's…complete." (Note: Miquella's body is a bit taller than Malenia's, his hair is blond, and his body is muscular.) That was the only word he could think of at that moment. Miquella began to look around at the room he was in. He could tell that it was not a guest room, it belonged to someone. "To whom doth this room belong?" He asked himself. "It's mine, what do you think?" A voice said from beside him. Miquella looked over where the voice had come from. "It is rather nice thank you." Miquella replied to his question. "Oh excuse me, we haven't been properly introduced yet." The man began. "My name is Serov, it's nice to meet you." He said. "Likewise, but…if I may, art thee the man to whom my sister betrothed herself?" Miquella asked. "Whoa, hold up…betrothed?" Serov asked right back. "Yes, she hath made thee her lord and consort. No?" Miquella said.
"I never discussed that with her!" Serov yelled, too surprised to keep his composure. "Tis not a matter of discussion. She hath made you her lord and consort." He replied. "I think it would be!" Serov shouted. "Do I take it that thy despises my sister?" Miquella asked with a raised brow. "No! I don't despise her, I'm just very surprised to hear this." Serov responded with his face cradled in his palm. "She has never been defeated by anyone, I'm intrigued at thine's strength." Miquella said as he inspected his own body once more. "If I may ask, what doth thy think of Malenia?" Miquella asked Serov. "She's strong, tall, and beautiful." Serov said. "Beautiful? I'm glad that thy thinks so." Miquella replied.
"Uhh Miquella, why did she choose me of all people?" Serov asked. "She was defeated by thee." Miquella replied. "That is a very vague answer." Serov said while moving his hands through his hair. "Well, my sister is very fond of thee." Miquella said with a grin. "Really? I couldn't tell." Serov responded. "How?" Miquella asked. "Your sister can be very hard to read at times." Answered Serov. "Ah yes, that much is true. Malenia can sometimes be…blank." Said Miquella. After a short pause of silence Serov said. "Your sister probably wants to see you." Serov told Miquella. "Oh…yes, please show her in." Miquella replied.

Serov had left Malenia and Miquella alone. Malenia said she didn't mind him being there, but Serov knew more than anyone that sibling time was crucial. Well…when he had siblings. "Asura, are you showing Ranni a close up view of the stars?" Serov asked. "Yes, she was interested and I've got nothing better to do." Asura replied. Serov turned to say something to Glenn, but his jaw dropped at what he saw. Fia was holding Glenn gently in her bosom. "Glenn…what the hell are you doing with Fia?" He asked with much surprise. "I'm getting a hug." Glenn said in a muffled voice. "That ain't a normal hug." Serov said while he motioned for Asura.
"Like you'd know!" Glenn shouted. "Of course I'd know! I used to have a fiancé!" Serov yelled back. Glenn rose from Fia's embrace and marched towards Serov. "Shut up and let me have my moment." Glenn whispered. "Hey, you don't do that without asking us." Asura said jokingly. "Oh come on guys!" Glenn said in a hurt tone. "Don't look at me, you did it." Asura said "Anyways, Miquella is almost ready to tell us where Reaper's staging area is." Serov said to his buddies. "I haven't seen him walk out of your room yet." Glenn stated.
"I have now." Miquella said from behind Glenn's back. "Why?" Glenn asked the universe. "How does it feel to be an adult?" Asura asked Miquella. "Very…tall." Miquella replied. "Alright Miquella, we need to know where our enemy, the Reaper, might be hiding." Serov asked. "From what Malenia hath told me, he is probably in the most inhospitable place on the planet." Miquella told everyone. "A Place filled with death and rot." He said. "Miquella, thou can't mean that place?" Ranni asked. "I do Ranni, we must go to Caleid." Miquella said in a cold voice.
Okay, so Serov is apparently married to Malenia without him realizing it. Hope you guys like that.
Oh, and I'm going to progress Ranni's and Asura's Relationship next.
See you next chapter!
