SUPPORT B : Out of your mind

*metallic sounds* Villager : Arghhhhhh… *DUMP* Brandon : Hmm… It looks like I’ve killed the last rebel… Nohrian soldier :  Sir Brandon ! What do we do now ? There are children hiding on a house. Brandon : Huh ? Why are you asking me ? King Garon gave you an order didn’t he ? Nohrian soldier : Yes but… They’re really young. I-I doubt they are linked to rebels. Brandon : Then don’t annoy me with your questions. If you want to rebel against the king’s orders do it out of my sigh… or I’ll cut you in half too. *walks towards the house hiding the children* *The children are scared and hide in the back of the house* Brandon :  My my… That’s true that you’re all really young. Brandon : Since that is the way things are… *takes his axe and walks towards them* Lyn : Wait! Lyn : You can’t be serious. Are you really going to kill those children? Brandon :  Oh… It’s you Lyn. I’ll recognize your voice from thousand. Brandon :  I am serious. Iago is outside and he’ll be checking if the work is done right. Brandon : Morever I doubt a life would worth to be lived in their situation… Lyn : W-what do you mean by that…? Brandon : They saw their parents slaughtered by Nohrian soldiers and their houses burnt to the ground. They lost everything they hold dear. I won’t take the risk of having some new revengeful rebels killing my companions. *Kids are starting to cry* *turns towards them and keeps coming closer to them with a soft smile* Brandon :  …I promise it won’t hurt. *runs towards him and grabs his arm* Lyn : No, stop! Lyn : Please… don’t do this. Lyn : Dear gods, you’re really out of your mind to think that it’s going to be like that Brandon :  …! Brandon :  The one being out of your mind Lyn is you. Do you want to sacrifice yourself for these children ? Lyn : If it means you’re going to spare them, then yes. I don’t care what you think, they don’t deserve this. I’d sooner die than letting them being killed over some absurd way of thinking. Brandon :  … How nice from you. May should I remind you that soldiers must obey without thinking… Then… Good bye Lyn. “ *raises his axe above her head* Brandon :  …………………………… You’re not going to move aren’t you ? Lyn : No. *remains still* Brandon : …………………….. Brandon : ….. *stops smiling and deeply sighs* You’re really annoying you know that ? *suddenly breaks the window* Brandon : I’ll be putting fire at the house after leaving. Wait 3-5 minutes and go out from that window. Iago won’t see you. Understood ? *Kids are nodding but look confused* Brandon : Lyn bring the kids to the nearest village. I’ll create a diversion. *goes out* *Brandon puts the fire to the house and leaves. Lyn could hear some sentences like “I’ll killed them all” “that was the last house” “Nothing to do here now”… * Lyn : *approaches the children* Shh, it’s okay now. We need to get out of here fast. It’s going to be alright, I promise. *takes the children out of the house*

SUPPORT A : Light and shadow

*one week later after getting home they meet at the training room* Brandon :  …….. Hey Lyn. Glad to see you back. I was starting to think that someone saw you and you got executed. Lyn : ……… Lyn : … Why did you do it? Why did you suddenly change your mind…? Brandon :  … Heh. Straight to the point. Can we just forget this instead ?.. Thanks to you I got a new scar on my stomach and I can’t even properly sleep without thinking about these children telling the truth to someone someday… and both of us ending up executed. Lyn : No, tell me. I need to know why. Lyn : You have no whims on killing those children, so killing me shouldn’t be much different either. Lyn : … But then why did you change your mind? Brandon : … You won’t find any good answers. Brandon : Let’s just say… I liked how shiny your eyes were. I can’t say no to  a beautiful woman begging me to save children and putting her life on the the line. Brandon :  We got very lucky you know ? Honestly I didn’t think my plan would work out. Lyn : *deathly glare* Brandon :  Pfffff hahahaha ! Way to turn my on with these beautiful eyes of yours !! I’ll tell you when I’ll know it myself… Okay ? Brandon :  Maybe… And I say maybe… You looked like a mother who wanted to protect her children. Brandon : For some reasons I can’t bear that kind of scene it makes me lost any will but… I’m currently working on it. You better find something else than your pretty shiny eyes next time. *his face darkens* Lyn : … Wait, I don’t understand. You said I looked like a mother who wanted to protect her children… and you can’t stand it…? Lyn : … Why…? Brandon : *waits a little moment before speaking* … My mother abandoned me… So… When I saw you willingly standing for these children I… *realizes he’s talking too much* Tch ! W-What are you doing to me witch ?! *starts to leave* Lyn : W-wait! Don’t go, please! Brandon : ……….. Lyn : … I’m sorry… Brandon : Ah forget about that… Tell me Lyn, are your parents still alive ? Lyn : My parents? Yes, they are… Brandon :  Are you still in good terms with them ? Lyn : … N-no, not really… We… we don’t speak as much nowadays… Brandon :  You don’t ? Lyn : *sigh* It’s a really long and complicated story… They… they didn’t approve when I decided to join the mercenary…I tried to explain that I’m doing this for them, but they… they just don’t understand it, I suppose. We hardly spoke to one another ever since then…But I’m still trying my best to do what’s right, even if they don’t understand it… After all, they’re still my parents… Nothing would really change that. Brandon : … Nothing would change huh ? …I guess you’re right. Well I was glad to be able to talk with you today Lyn. It’s getting late though so I’ll be off now. Good bye, beautiful~. Lyn : So you’re not going to tell me why you suddenly got interested in my parents?… Alright then… Brandon : Hehehe damn I just wanted to change the subject and talk about you ~ why so suspicious my dear Lyn ~  Though I’ll be curious to meet them. I’ll tell them how lucky they have to have a daughter like you. Lyn : … Lucky huh…? *sighs and mumbling to self* “… I honestly doubt that… Brandon :  You still consider them as your parents despite it all, don’t you ? Brandon :  If it’s not the definition of ‘being a family’ I don’t know what it is. Lyn : Yes, I do. I still do… That’s why I’ll just have to work harder…Maybe one day I can finally make them proud of me… Brandon :  I’m crossing fingers for you. You’ll be fine Lyn.
