Colin burst into X's tent. "What. Did. You. Do." He said, Walking
up to X.
~Meanwhile~ (It's night out BTW)
"So Lissa?" Cordelia, Lissa, and several other female shepards were
in a tent together talking. "How was your day?" Cordelia asked.
"Normal, except for the new guy hitting on me." She explained. "Oh,
X?" Cordelia said. "Yeah, He's cute but... I sorta hit him in the
head with my staff." She explained. "H*ll yeah! That's my girl!"
Sully yelled from across the room, then someone nudged her. "Well,
you should probably go apologize." Cordelia told Lissa. "Yeah... I
guess your right." She left, and then headed for X's tent
"x-x-X?" Lissa walked into the tent. "I'm sorry." "I guess... I'll
be going." Colin said, then slipped out of his tent. Ok... That
was awkward. He thought as he walked towards his tent, then
flopped down and went to sleep.
"Okay! I hear there are some new recruits! I want them on the
training grounds in five! Let's see what they're made of." shouted
Forge. It was his job to train people. That included any new
Shepards. "Where the hell is Colin?" he asked a nearby soldier once
he was on the training grounds. No one else was there yet. The
soldier shrugged. "Probably shouting at Fredrick." he said. Forge
shot him a rare smile. Then he picked up his sword and started
practicing while waiting for the new recruits.

How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
Colin woke up and stretched. "Good morning Co-" He looked around.
"Darn it!" Colin walked out of the tent. The morning air was crisp
and cool, he looked around, It was rather quiet. Severa must not
be up yet. He thought. He looked in the main tents, and then in
one of the side tents, where he heard stirring. He opened the tent
flap and got a punch to the face, so hard he was knocked on his
butt. "What the heck!?!" He looked up and saw Sully. "What is wrong
with you!?" He yelled. "No one gets in." She said. "Why?" He asked
getting up. "'Female only tent.'" She pointed to a sign he didn't
see before. "I'm just looking for my wife.. geez." He tried to peek
inside. "She's inside." She blocked him off. "Now scram arse head."
Colin walked away muttering some things under her breath. Then he
saw Forge, and walked over.
"Salute!" said Forge, digging his sword into the ground. "Seems the
new recruits are still asleep. We'll have to change that, huh? But
in the meantime, get your sword. It's been a while since you last
had a practice match with me." he said, taking his sword out. "You
better have improved. Last time was good, but I got you there a few
times." he stated.

"My move? Dammit, you haven't learned anything, have you?" said
Forge. "If a Risen came at you, would you say 'No, you bite my arm
off first, I insist!'. It's not a turn based thing. Now attack me!"
Forge shouted.

Colin went to throw his ax, but then jumped up and slammed on
Forge's blade. He then slammed at his weapon with his shield,
knocking it to the floor. He put His ax to Forge's neak. "Whatcha
gonna do now?" He taunted.
"Good question." smiled Forge. Colin didn't know it, but Forge's
legs were right between his. If it had been an enemy, Forge
would've slammed straight up. As it was, he gave a hard kick to the
knee. As Colin fell to one knee, Forge got to his feet and disarmed
him in one swift motion. He tossed away the ax. He calmly picked up
his own sword. "Wahtcha gonna do now?" he chuckled, but kept his
eyes on Colin. Colin had let his guard down, allowing Forge to do
that entire maneuver. He had to make sure he didn't make the same
mistake.

Colin saw Cordelia out of the corner of his eye. "I Yield." He got
up, limping a bit. He shook his Hand, then walked over to Cordelia.
"Good morning." He kissed her, and then grabbed her hand. "Where
were you last night?" He asked, worried. "Oh, I'm sorry." She
looked sad. "I feel asleep talking to the ladies in that tent.
Several others did as well..." She trailed off looking away. "I
know about that." He grabbed her chin. "Colin, I'm so s-" She
couldn't finish, Colin kissed her again. "You know, your cute when
your apologizing " He said, and Cordelia blushed. "Also, I met with
one of your friends." He looked at her with a smirk. "Who?" She
asked. "Sully's fist." He answered, and Cordelia giggled.
"Damn it. Why the hell does he always give up when Cordelia comes
along?" Forge asked himself. Hmm... Fredrick is coming. Should
we warn him? asked Hunter. Forge thought. "Nah, Fredrick never
gets old." he decided.

"There is someone else I want you to meet." She told Colin. "Yeah,
Who's that?" He asked. "My li-" "Sir!" Fredrick walked up. "DARN IT
FREDRICK!" Colin yelled then grabbed his ax and threw it at him
softly, It landed by his feet. "What is it?" He asked. "Nothing.
Lissa just sent me to check on you." Colin clenched his fist. "I'm
gonna have to have a word with her later." Fredrick then walked
away. "Da** him." He said. "Cordelia i'm so so-" She kissed him,
"You know, Your cute when your apologizing." She told him. "Oooh,
Is that a romance call back?" He said. "Maybe." She whispered. "How
about we go to the town nearby for dinner tonight.?" He stroked his
hand though her hair. "Just the two of us?" She kissed him again.
"Well, I'll see you later. I promised to talked to Severa today."
She then walked away. "It's kinda hard to think." He said once
Cordelia had gone. "We've been married two years."
Forge stayed on the training grounds, fiercely practicing until
late noon. Then he took a jog around the camp in full armor,
keeping a lookout for enemies at the same time. When he was done,
he walked into his tent. There he found a folded piece of
paper.
Dear John,
Meet me tonight, in the clearing you found yesterday. If you know
what's best for you, you better come alone.
-Mr J
Forge stared at it. Mr J. Forge had killed him himself. He had
checked the pulse. The Assassin. The Destroyer. The Shadow. The
Backstabber. How many names had this man earned himself? Forge
thought. Should he tell anyone? "Hunter, you're gonna have to stay
here tonight. I have some unfinished business." he said. He turned
around and walked out of the tent. Forge still held the paper. He
ripped it up. He started walking. "One last time, Johnson. One last
time."

"What a beautiful day" Yona said the next morning while stretching.
She saw Olivia heading towards her and smiled "Hello Olivia"
Olivia smiled shyly and replied "Hello. I was thinking that you
should introduce yourself to Colin and maybe Chrom. They're the
leaders and it would be kind of awkward if you didn't"
Yona blinked and smiled. "Sure. Show me the way"
So Olivia did, she showed her to were Colin was. He didn't seem to
notice their arrival so Yona smiled and said. "Hello~ I'm Yona, a
new Shepherd. You must be Colin right?"
"A tactician?" Yona wondered in thought as she took his hand and
shook it. "So that means you come up with the plans? That's so
cool!" she exclaimed with a bright smile. "I'm a sorcerer a pretty
good one at that. Hopefully my abilities will be useful for the
group"
"Hmm. How you'd like to go with us to the nearby town on a supply
run," He looked over at Cordelia who was walking over. "and other
things. Oh, and Yona. This is my pwitty waifu wife,
Cordelia." He turned to Cordelia. "This is Yona, she is a new
Shepard." He explained. "Nice to meet you." She said. "So you want
to come?" He asked.
"That'd be amazing! I'd love to go with you!" Yona exclaimed
excited to go with the Shepherds. Remembering her manners she
coughed and said "Nice to meet you Cordelia! It's so sweet how you
too are married" Which reminded her that she needed to find someone
for her self. "It must be awkward to deal with romance with all
these people" she said with a giggle.
