Hey everybody! This is my first fanfic EVER, so I don't know if I'll support you all with a good story yet, but I want any advice you could give me so I can improve my skills here. Yes, this is gonna be a story about a pairing that rarely ever comes up, but I simply wanted to think about something like this if it were to happen. Here are the classes each character is going to be in my story:
Elsword-Lord Knight
Rena-Grand Archer
Aisha-Elemental Master
Raven-Blade Master
Eve-Code Empress
Chung-Iron Paladin
Also, I apologize that not the entire cast is gonna show up for the first chapter, but I promise they should all come later. With that said, enjoy!
As Elsword was floating above the whole of Elrios, he remembered all the many great events that happened when he was traveling with his friends. Through his dream, he saw events of his epic quests along with his companions: from stopping Banthus at the Tree of El, all the way to their recent entry of Hamel, Elsword saw images and scenes of all the laughs and sorrows they shared along their journey. As Elsword watched all this happen from afar, he grinned to himself at how much they've all grown; he even began musing at what memories they'll create next. Suddenly, Elsword was transported back to original place he started his dream from.
"What's going on?" Elsword spoke as he turned around from left and right, trying to catch on to the moment.
"No matter how much you've grown Elsword, you're still my favorite quirky brother, as always." A voice from behind replied.
Elsword turned to face the mysterious person, gasping as the speaker's identity was revealed before him. "Elesis…!"
The same sister Elsword grew up with during his childhood slowly walked over to her younger brother, a content grin plastered upon her serene face. "It's been some time when we last met, hasn't it, Elsword? When I last saw you, you were still a little shrimp just training out in the field. Seems like you grew a few inches, and you're starting to really be a young man, huh?" She then playfully roughed up Elsword's spiky hair with her firm hand, all the while chuckling to herself about his growth.
Meanwhile, Elsword could only stare dumbstruck at the situation. "Sis, why have you suddenly appeared here out of nowhere? I've been looking for you everywhere for you, so why show up now?"
To answer her flabbergasted brother, Elesis replied while sheepishly scratching the back of her head. "Well, for one, this is just a dream, so we still haven't seen each other in the flesh yet. The reason I'm speaking to you now is because I wanted to comment on how much you've improved over your travels with your friends. It's remarkable that you were able to come as far as you did, so I'd just want to commend you on that. On that note, have you already found out who you hold most dear to you?"
"M-most…dear?" Elsword stuttered out.
"You know, someone who you care for and have devoted your life to protecting with your sword. Maybe your girlfriend, for example? Hey, has my little brother already gotten a girlfriend by now? Tell me everything!
"G-g-g-g-g-girlfriend?!" Elsword's face became an intense crimson, staring at his sister's inquisitive expression as he tried to mumble out an appropriate response.
After a while, Elesis was able to understand him without much difficulty. "So you haven't gotten one yet, huh? Well, maybe you'll find that 'special someone' sooner or later. Have you considered anyone yet?
"Um, not really. I haven't put much thought into something like that, since I was always focused on trying to get stronger with my own two hands."
"Hmmm…Elsword, understand that, no matter how strong you are, that power is pretty much useless if you don't have someone you care for. Without the proper resolve, you will remain weak, just as you are now'.
"If that's the case, how do I find out who I should devote myself to?"
With that, Elsword's big sister began rubbing her chin as she thought. "Well, hasn't there always been someone who's always been by your side, doing everything they can to support you with utmost sincerity? Isn't that a person who you think should be worth protecting?"
"I…I don't know…"
"Well, you should go for a nice girl like that. Since you're probably going to need someone to hold your reins, I'd prefer it if you aimed to be with someone who's probably more mature than you, for I'd be more relieved if I can trust such a person to care for you. Maybe you should date a respected female or 'big sister' type character, because we all pretty much can say you have a sister complex of sorts, right?"
Elsword immediately became flustered at his sister's words. "Wait! I don't have a sister complex! Elesis, you've got me wrong! I would never-"
Before he could continue, he heard a voice in the distance calling his name.
"Elsword…Elsword…Elsword…"
Rena had kept shaking Elsword for well over ten minutes by now. "Elsword! Elsword, please! It's time to wake up! It's already morning, and everyone is waiting for you for breakfast in the dining hall downstairs! Come on, Elsword, please wake up!"
Slowly, Elsword began to regain his senses, and found himself in his own assigned room in Hamel City's Central castle. Rena stood on the right side of his bed, her hands laid upon his shoulder, and as he looked up, he saw Rena give a relieved smile that gave of a cheerful radiance. Seeing her like that, Elsword slightly blushed at the calm air she emitted, something he had been doing ever since they had first met.
"Good morning, Elsword. Thank goodness you didn't sleep in this time. If you would have slept any longer, everyone would have simply begun breakfast without you."
"Oh, I see. Well, I don't want to trouble you anymore than I already have, so go join everyone else downstairs. I'll come down shortly, so don't worry."
"If that's the case, join us as soon as you're ready, okay?"
As soon as Elsword nodded his head in confirmation, Rena walked out the door. Elsword was now alone in his room once more.
"I wonder what that dream was all about…and what did my big sister mean that I should be with a 'big sister' character? Well, I can just put it at the back of my mind for now."
As Elsword thought about this, Elsword quickly garbed himself in his Lord Knight uniform, exited his room, and descended down the stairs to the castle's dining hall, ready to join his crew in their first morning within the city of water.
