P.S: Author's Notes will be at the end of every chapter. (This is the ONLY exception)
The Final Battle (Endgame: Grima)
"Robin! I'll deliver the final blow." Chrom said as he ran towards Grima's Avatar.
Robin however had finally made his decision. He was going to end Grima's life and end him for good. It was a decision he made in order to secure peace for the future generations of mankind. This was to bring peace to all his friends. To those who witnessed the hellish future. Robin however did this for one person In particular. He was doing this for Lucina, who he had realized that with Grima dead, she can be in peace and enjoy a better life compared to her future but this would bring his own life to an end.
With this, Robin began to use a Thunder tome and aim at Grima's Avatar.
"Robin! What are you doing! We can't have your life go to waste here! Not now! Let me land the hit!" Chrom said continuing to run towards the white-haired man.
"Are you insane! This would end your life too!" Grima's avatar yelled out.
Chrom was was now running as fast as he could've, trying to get to Robin as quickly as possible but by then, he was too late. "ROBIN!"
Grima's Avatar had begun to fade away out of existence and from the looks of it, Robin was too.
"Robin?" Lucina had said. She had seen her father run and had thought that he was going to end Grima but with one of her father's shouts, she'd realized something went wrong. All the risen had disappeared and Grima had stopped flying. She quickly started to run towards Robin's direction. She however had seen him, fading away. She was shocked to see him disappearing. They had promised each other to always be there for each other and now there he was, fading away. "Robin... Why?"
Robin had saw her and realized what he had done. He knew he wouldn't had been able to see the love of his life look at him. He had many things he had wanted to tell her but with the little time he had, he talked with her. "I'm sorry. I know this looks like a terrible idea but I intend to keep the promise I made to you. I promise I will find a way to cheat death. I promise you that when I come back, I will never leave your side. I intend to grow old with you and raise a family, but now there's a slight delay and I won't let this separate me from you."
Now beginning to sob, Lucina was devastated. All the pain she had endured in the future to now lose the man that she had loved. Fate had been cruel to her but this was worse than any physical pain she had to face. "Robin. I believe in you. Please try and come back. For the Shepherds. For me"
Robin saw her and with a gentle smile he said "Lucina, I won't try. I will." Now looking at Chrom to her right. "Chrom. May we meet again. In a better life." These were the last words before the tactician faded away into the wind and with this, he was gone.
"Gods damn you! Why did you have to do that!" Chrom was enraged at his friend's decision. "I could've ended it myself and he would still be with us."
He felt as useless as he felt during Emmeryn's death. However, he believed that Robin would come back from this. Robin had to come back and with the bonds he had made with the Shepards, him not coming back sounded absurd.
Lucina saw her father and was speechless. Robin was gone. He gave his life up so that those in the future could live peacefully. He did this to have her live a bright future but to her it looked dark. Robin had given his life and was gone. He would've been with her in her darkest moments but that wasn't possible now. However, she did believe in one thing. With tears in her eyes, she began to speak.
"Robin, I know you live and if you can hear me, I know that you'll come back to us, to me. But I want you to know that I will wait for you until the end of time itself."
