Here's the one-shot I was talking about... Might end up being a ten chapter story or something.
Leo sighed and looked at his watch. Ten more minutes, and he can leave this blasted meeting. However, the two men fighting across the table were making things difficult.
"We have to move forward!" Iago insisted as he slammed his fist into the table. "That's the only way to go!"
"We don't have enough resources," Xander insisted. "We have to fall back."
Leo had no idea what they were talking about. It might have something with going after the Hoshidians, but he wasn't too sure about it. Oh well. Not that anyone cared if he left the meeting early.
When Iago attempted to punch Xander in the head, Leo slipped out. He had more important things to attend to.

After making sure that he wasn't being followed, Leo entered his room, where Niles was waiting. Niles looked at him and smirked. "Going out?" He asked.
"Yeah," Leo admitted as he took the tome from Niles. "Odin told me that the Hoshidians are nearby. If I can break into their camp, I can bring Corrin back safe and sound."
Niles nodded. "Of course, milord. It'd be good to have your sister back."
Leo rolled his eyes and glared at his retainer. "Say anything perverted to Corrin, and I will kill you without hesitation."
"Then who will serve you?" Niles asked.
"Shut it," Leo muttered as he walked away. "And don't tell Xander about this."
"Of course."

After escaping the Nohrian fortress, Leo was riding his horse to the Hoshidian camp. He had to save his sister from these peace loving hippies in kimonos. Even though she had chosen to side with them, her heart wasn't truly with them.
Once he reached the hill overlooking the camp, Leo tied his horse to the tree. He quietly entered the camp, making sure that the guards didn't see him. He had to hide behind a few tents to avoid their gaze, but he wasn't being followed, thankfully.
Leo's eyes scanned the camp. Where was Corrin? He asked himself.
As he took a step forward, a person walked out of a tent. Leo froze, and his eyes fell on a young man with long ashen hair . His amber eyes glowed with haughtiness.
"Nohrian scum," the man whispered.
"Evening, Hosh**ian."
"You're not welcome here."
"I'm here to save my sister."
"Sister...?"
"Corrin," Leo glowered.
"Oh. Her. She's my sister, baka."
"I grew up with her. She's my sister."
"Right. You keep telling yourself that as you tend to your wall of severed heads."
"... Why the hell do you think that I have severed heads in my room?" Leo asked as he raised an eyebrow.
"That's what Norhians do."
"No, we don't do that."
"Even if you don't do those types of things, you Nohrians execute prisoners willy-nilly. I'm glad that Corrin escaped when she did."
"You can't take her away," Leo hissed.
"She joined us of her own free will."
"She didn't. I have to bring her back home."
"You have to fight all of us," the man insisted.
"I'll kill you."
"I'd thought you would say that," the man replied cheerfully. "That's why I brought a gun with me."
Before Leo could blink, the man reached into his pocket and shot Leo. Leo managed to duck in time, but he dropped his guard. The man rushed forward and kicked Leo in the ribs. Leo gasped for breath, as he had left his armor behind. He then muttered a spell at the man, who fell to his knees.
"Ha!" Leo yelled triumphantly.
"Not yet, baka."
Leo screamed as the bullet entered his hand. He fell over in pain and looked at his opponent.
"If it wasn't for Corrin, I would kill you." The man stated triumphantly. "But that doesn't mean that I can't hurt you."
"Wh-Who are you?" Leo managed.
"I'm Takumi. Corrin's real brother," Takumi muttered as he raise his gun up and struck Leo, knocking him out.
After a few seconds, Corrin ran up to Takumi. "What happened?"
Takumi blew at his gun. "Me? Oh, I just captured a POW. I think he might be useful... Hinata! Oboro!"
Two soldiers ran up as Corrin gawked at her foster brother. "Yes, Lord Takumi?"
"Take him to the prisoner's tent and lock him up. He might be useful later."
As Leo was dragged away, Takumi laughed. "I win this round... Nohrian scum."
Prompt: I'd thought you say that. That's why I brought a gun.
Should I name this story Broken Insanity?
