(Huh. i dunno if that was necessary im not writing for money or whatever or however this works. yeah still new to this. the end.)

A/n: just a story I came up with. It has a pretty stupid premise. Hope it can be a good first story. HERE WE GO!

Fire... that was all that she saw. 'No this cannot be... is there any hope left?' Lucina was looking over Mount Prism. It had been completely overrun with risen. The young Sheperds had learned that there was a way to cross the boundaries of time. A sacred ceremony only used in the most dire of times. That gave them renewed morale long thought to have been lost. That hope was crushed when they found the state Mount Prism was in.

"LUCINA!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! GET OUT OF THERE!!"

Lucina whipped her head around and saw she was completely surrounded by Risen and a very determined Cynthia trying to fight them off.

"Cynthia?! Gah!"

"No time for formalities sis!! Let's beat these guys up!!"

They went back to back out of pure instinct (Well, as back as you can get on a Pegasus anyway.) then Lucina quickly went to work and decapitated two Risen in one stroke. Cynthia covered the sides and made a kebab of a few risen with her Lance. They worked in perfect harmony together, taking into account their respective weaknesses and strengths.

"Is..*huff* that all of them sis?"

"Yes, I believe so. where are the others?" Lucina checked all sides to make sure they were clear and she climbed up on Cynthia's pegasus.

"Not too far from here, they met up with somebody. I don't know her name. But she had Red hair and is apparently a merchant."Cynthia was feeling quite spry but took a sip of water from her waterskin.

"What? A merchant? How could she sell or find anything to sell?" Lucina thought out loud "Also, you said 'she' as in singular, she traveled alone!?"

"Yup, she insisted we come check out this weird thing she had. I didn't have time to find out what because you went ahead like the stubborn person you are!"

Lucina was taken aback by the fierceness in her voice.

"Do you have any idea how worried I was!? You went there alone! Don't do that again you hear!?"

"Oh.. Cynthia... I apologize, I shouldn't have worried you like that. I hope you can forgive me."

"You better be more than sorry..." Cynthia's head was downcast.

Lucina thought for a moment. Hoping to cheer her up. Her head perked up as she thought of said thing. "Um.. Cynthia, how about I give you the rest of my dessert rations as thanks and an apology?"

Cynthia's head quickly brightened with a smile. "You mean it sis? Aww... you're the best! Fine then, I accept your apology."

Cynthia thought for a moment and said crestfallenly, "So Mount Prism is overrun huh?"

Lucina's features darkened as she thought back to the sight she had seen. She then came to the realization that there was no way they could save the world. She was silent the rest of the way. when they arrived, the Junior Sheperds were quick to give Lucina an earful.

However, Gerome was quiet until he interrupted Brady when he noticed a certain red headed woman and said, "Put the scolding on hold for a second will you? she needs to hear this."

Lucina was thankful but confused. What could there possibly be to listen to? she was also saddened by the fact that she would have to tell them about Mount Prism. She was also questioning how she managed to lose her comrades as she ran to Mount Prism.She must have been so blinded by her duty that she hadn't noticed she had left behind her friends... or something.

She was brought out of her thoughts as she came face to face with a red haired young woman no older than the age of around 30 with a cape, a red and yellow tunic, a sword to her belt, and a bright grin.

"Ah, so you must be this Lucina that I keep hearing about from your friends, correct? My name is Anna!"

"U-um yes that is correct, pardon me, but do you know of the situation we are in?"

"Of course I do silly. Also, don't worry, I already told your friends about Mount Prism. If I didn't, I wouldn't have my job as the gatekeeper."

"Gatekeeper?"

"Indeed, you must come with me."

Lucina looked stoic and unconvinced, "My apologies but how do I know that I can trust you?"

"Ha, I was prepared for that question, I know your father." Lucina still looked unconvinced "Who doesn't?"

"Hold on, let me finish!" Anna childishly pouted. "I have a memento from him that you would know, or more specifically, of his departed wife." Anna pulled out a flower fortune flower that, by the looks of it Lucina's Mother had already used. Lucina looked at it to confirm it. And it indeed was.

"There, now do you believe me?" Anna questioned.

"...I'm Listening"
