Return to Ylisse

Laslow's POV

   We began to set camp at the end of the day of fighting invaders. I smiled "Well we lived and none of the Non Invaders found us. So luck's on our side!" I said. Everyone twitched and I sweat dropped.

    Odin landed face first into the ground "The chosen hero is...tired...." He says in the ground. I facepalmed.

   I then groaned "why are you all looking at me!? I didn't do crap!" I said to them. Everyone gave me a look of really?. I laughed nervously " Ok the quick sand I didn't even know was there." I said scratching the back of my head. They all growled.

    I shrunk "N-Not my fault!!! That were thieves that attempted to steal Seigfried and Yato! And your steel shurikens! And your swords and tomes and bow..." I said sweatdropping.

    Lady Corrin took a deep breath and sighed "Sorry Laslow...it's just it's strange over at Hoshido or Nohr...we have outlaws and ninja. Here its thevies..." She says. She then looked to me " and they seemed to notice you, Odin, and Selena. Then they ran off." she said.

   All three of us began to look nervous. Selena scratched her cheek with a finger "W-Well what does it matter! We must be scary. Haha! Cowards. " she said trying to keep the tough girl on.

   I smiled "I'll agree with the lovely sweet ice queen. We must look tough." I say winking at her. Selena twitched and knocks me down "STUPID, IDIOT, GAY, FLIRT OF A PR-" Odin covered her mouth in a panic.

     Odin laughed "HAHAHAHA!! Selena my friend, you need to calm down! The hero refuses to hear you insult my fated cousin. He shall save this relam and we'll- OWWWW!!!" he says gripping his hand.

   "THE FEIND BIT ODIN DARK HERO OF THE DARKNESS! IT BURNS! IT BURNS!! THE DARK SHALL NOT CLAIM MY SWO- I MEAN TOME HAND!!!!"

   "Oh my gosh!! Odin are you alright!? Niles! Kaze! Xander! Leo! Anyone!!"

   "Milady!!! can't you heal him!? Where's your staff?"

   "Oops...I knew I forgot something..."

   " YOU FORGOT YOUR STAFF!? CORRIN! I AM YOUR BROTHER-IN-LAW I TOLD YOU TO BRING EVERYTHING!!!!"

    "I'm sorry!!!!"

   "This is choaic. I need to sleep."

   "Lord Leo please let me watch you sleep to protect you!"

  "No. Heal Odin Niles."

  "Ugh fine"

  "HELP. SHE'S KILLING ME!!!"

  "SELENA STOP ATTEMPTING TO KILL MY RETAINER!!!!!"

~Later~

  I sat by the fire looking at the dancing flames. I sighed then looked to the moon "Gerome...." I said. "who?" Says a voice, I turn to the owner.

   "Oh! Lord Xander and Kaze, and Lady Corrin...hello." I say smiling. The three sat down next to me.

   Kaze looked to me "Laslow, you do not need to call me Lord Kaze. Kaze is fine." he says. I remember my father "heh..you sound like my father..." I mumbled.

    Lady Corrin rolled her eyes in a joking matter "Kaze, you are technically apart of the Royal family. Your brother married me and you married Azura, who is my cousin." she says.

  Kaze cuckled "Yes, I know Lady Corrin, I feel I am not ready for a royal title." he said.

  I laughed "You really sound like my father" I said. Lord Xander looked curiously at me " who exactly is your father?" He asked. I looked at him "My father?" I asked surprised.

    Lord Xander nodded "You talk of him and even compare yourself to him. I would like to know more about him." He said. I blinked "You would like to know about my father?" I asked pleasantly shocked.

    I smiled "Well for starters he was a general. He led an army by the name of the Shepherds. He met my mother on a battlefield." I explained. Lady Corrin looked to me with interest " Wow a general? Maybe he could teach me some battle tatics!" She says.
 
   "Ha! Uncle? Nah, our battles with the Sheperds would not be victorious without the help of the tacticions!" says Odin who sits next to Me. Kaze raised an eyebrow "Tacticions?" He asks.

   Selena then joins in "They basically give a strategy and have killer sword skills and tome skills." She says. Lord Leo comes out "Tomes? I'm in." He says sitting next to Lord Xander. I nodded they continued to ask many questions.

     After a half of hour of questions. Lady Corrin looked to me "Laslow...The mark in your eye...its showing..." She says. I gasped "i-it is!? Th-That's pretty funny milady! I have no mark." I said nervously. Selena and Odin shake their heads I looked down.

    Niles looked at us "Odin has one too. Who are you three really?" He asked. I looked away, Lord Leo spoke up "That mark is a big deal here. What does it stand for." he spoke rather sternly.

    I took a deep breath and looked up to them "My real name is Inigo. Crown Prince of Ylisse...me, my retainer Severa, and my cousin Owain were chosen by a dragon by the name of Anankos to aid and help his daughter, Corrin..." I told them. They all looked at us shocked "The mark you see in my eye and on Owain's arm is the Brand of the exalt, aka Naga's mark." I explained.

   Lady Corrin was probably the most shocked "I faught my...father..?" She says. I nodded "You supposedly destroyed your father's dragon half. Not his human half." I said.

   Odin stood up "I guess I'll reintroduce myself. I am Owain Dark, son of The sprightly cleric Lissa and the twisted Mind Henry! I am the 2nd Prince of Ylisse." He says "Caw! Caw!" He shouted a Crow landed on his shoulder. 

   Selena facepalmed "UGH. My name is Severa. My parents are Cordelia and Lon'qu. I'm Inigo's retainer" she says crossing her arms.

   Lady Corrin looks at Severa's hair color "Red..?" She asks. Severa nodded "Yeah! Stupid Anankos changed my perfectly healthy black hair to my mother's red...hair...? Lady Corrin...?" She asks.

   "Cealdori....." She says looking at her "I know th-AH!" Lightning hit her and she fell to the ground. We all turned and my brand disappeared once again. Brady was getting more thunder with Cynthia.

I was about yell but thunder hit me black spots filled my vision as the others fell.

Later I woke to see the throne room tied up with everyone else. "what..?" I asked.

   "I see your awake." Said a deep voice my heart beat began to quicken. As I look up and a blush rose up on my cheeks. The man known as Gerome looked at me and said...
 

"Have you returned
To me....
Inigo...?"
