(Y/N) P.O.V

After explaining myself to Dimitri and Claude, I headed to my room to sleep. When I got to my room I felt something was off. "Whoever you are, show yourself!" I said while a random cloaked figure appeared out of nowhere.

"You were able to detect me, that's impressive. But that just means I'll have to be a little more forcefull." the figure said as they pulled out a dagger and attacked me. I ducked below them and got into a Royal Guard stance. "I thought you would go for that fancy sword of yours."

"I don't need it to fight you," I said as I got an idea and taunted the figure. "Come on,  let's dance!" I say while clapping and holding out my hand. The figure scoffed before trying to stab me but failed as I stood still and just blocked their attacks. after a few blocks, I grinned and said. "It's gonna take more than that to beat me, and also goodbye!" The hooded figure looked both confused and frustrated by that. I took advantage of their confusion and prepared a toned-down version of the Royal Guard's move, Release.

"What do you mean by tha-?" the figure tried to ask before I punched them out my door and through a window that was conveniently in the direction they were sent in.

"Well, I better call it a night," I said while heading to my bed and got into it. once I got comfortable I started to fall asleep.

Byleth and I were talking to Rhea about what happened to Flayn, Who was kidnapped a few days ago. "As I believe you are already aware, Seteth's younger sister, Flayn, has gone missing. At present, all we know for certain is that she has not left Garreg Mach." Rhea said.

"Flayn is just not the type of person to just wander off on her own without telling me where she is going!" seteth says sounding worried before continuing. "We have searched the monastery thoroughly, but have found nothing. I am now mobilizing the knights to begin searching the town. Troubling rumors have been running rampant lately. I do not want to consider the worst, but..."

"Troubling rumors?" Byleth asks.

"There are rumors of someone prowling the streets and attacking innocents, night after night. The Knights have investigated the matter. They have not discovered any remains, nor have they found any concrete evidence." Rhea said, giving Byleth the information about the rumors she asked about.

"The people are panicked!" They all insist someone called the Death Knight is coming to claim their souls with his blade. There is no way she could have escaped unscathed if she were captured by such a fiend! Where is she!?" Seteth says with distress in his voice.

Rhea looked at Seteth and says. "Seteth, recall that impatience begets error. Please do your best to calm yourself. I think of your...  sister as family as well. You know that. you have my support. We will devote ourselves fully-mind, body, and soul-to recovering her." Rhea then looks at me and Byleth. "Professor. Your mission this month is to help find Flayn. The knights have the town covered, so I ask that you focus your efforts on searching the monastery again. we do not have time to waste. you have your orders." with that Byleth left but I stayed behind to talk about what happened with me.

"I was attacked a few days ago I think whoever tried attacking me also kidnapped Flayn," I said causing Rhea and seteth to look at me.

"So... it is as I feared, they were after Flayn's blood." seteth said.

"Her... blood?" I asked confused.

"Yes, you see Flayn's blood is rare and extremely dangerous. Much like you actually." Seteth says.

"So that means they were after the power we possess from our heritage," I said realizing why I was targeted.

"I would assign guards to help protect you, but you probably won't need people to protect you," Rhea said.
