Comments: So this came to me while I was sleeping last night and its just a story in the making I am actually going to try and finish this one since I have never finished any of my chapter fics that I have EVER started. I was excited about this one though so I hope you guys like it as much as I do~ I DO NOT OWN THESE PEOPLE THEY ALL BELONG TO THEMSELVES FYI sorry this is so short the next chapters will be longer.
Being born into a family like mine was tough. I already had two older sister's and my mother absoluletly idolized me, maybe it was because I was born so beautiful and could almost pass for another daughter? I was never sure of the reason for her affection but its not like I really minded. My father never cared enough to even say hi to me because now that I was getting to the point where I should be ready to fight for him in battle he was starting to come around more and everytime I told him no I would end up getting slapped. There were days where I hoped he wold never come home from battle I hated him that much, but I always took it back because that would mean I would have to start ruling and I was far from ready to do that.
Why didn't this seem like enough? I would always sit by my window looking down at all the little villages below our castle and smile they seemed so free and happy even if they barely had anything to eat they were still happy. I was a child born into royalty and yet I was so unhappy with my life I knew my sister's could tell because they really didn't bother me like they used to with the fancy kimonos and hair styles. The joy of being a beautiful boy I suppose, that thought made me laugh as I stood up and walked over to one of the doors pushing it open to meet my personal body guard Akira. "Morning Shiroyama-Sama...did you sleep well?" He asked with his head bowed not looking him in the eye. "Akira we talked about this you can call me Aoi I let the servants call me Aoi for godsake so why wouldn't you be able to too?" "Sorry! Its hard to get used to that." He looked down at me and smiled causing a smile to touch my own perfect lips. "I slept well though you know as well as any prince can sleep."
"Your father has been calling for you all morning Aoi why haven't you answered?" My mother's scolding voice met up with me and Reita making him stand up straight as if he had never moved in the first place. "I guess his voice just slipped my mind mother I am sorry where is he at?" I hated seeing him because I always knew the question he was going to ask and I already knew my answer which would result in me getting hit because of it. "Please Aoi just for once talk to him like the honorable son hes always wanted okay?" My mother pleaded to me and took my hand leading me to the conference room where I could see my father looking over the maps of the next land he was about to invade. I bowed my head and waited for him to signal me up. "Hello my son it feels like it has been ages since we have last spoken tell me have you changed your mind about my proposal to lead me army to invade the Takashima castle?" He smirked and rested his hands on the table watching me closely as I made my way over to where he was standing. "Father you should know by now that I don't want anything to do with this pathetic feud that has been going on between you and Takashima-sama for all these years."
"You ungrateful little brat!" He spat at me the first smack always startled me but the ones after that never seemed to phaze me. "I will just have to do it myself I swear sometimes I think you are like your sister's you have spent way too much time with them lately I am ordering you to spend more time with some of my guards do you understand me? Spend a few weeks with Takamasa and Yutaka then come back to me with a changed mind Aoi!" I sighed softly and walked out of the room rubbing my cheek as I did so. My sister's instantly coming to my aid holding one of the most beautiful and most amazing kimionos I had ever seen before in their arms. "We heard how bad that ended and you still won't give in little brother? You are so strong to stand your ground to him." They smiled at me. "Girls your brother is not a dress up doll for you to toy with your new kimionos and hair styles!" My mother yelled from her and my father's bedroom. "We know that mother! We actually bought this for him its made from the finest silk on this side of the land and its for a special reason little brother." They both smirked at me causing me to cringe inwardly.
"You look absoluletly stunning Aoi!" My sister smiled and clapped her hands together in an acomplished manner. I was wearing the kimono they had bought for me the softest silk black and red that fit his body perfectly of course his sleeves were long and his hair was up in a loose bun leaving some strands to fall around his shoulder's making him look so stunning and beautiful. I couldn't believe how I looked in the mirror that didn't even look like me. I almost looked like one of my sisters only more beautiful and enchanting. "So what did you do this to me for?" I asked and turned to look at them. "Well you know that the lord of the lands father wants to invade has a son named Kouyou Takashima--" "No okay just no! I am not going to get all dressed up like this so I can go trick someone into friendship and then let father do something like that so just cruel and unfair I refuse to have any part of it!" I hissed out and stormed past them best to my abilites because this stupid kimiono was blocking my path pretty much after I was away from them I crossed my arms over my chest and walked around the castle aimlessly until I made it outside watching the soldiers pratice for battle it made my heart throb I saw Akira there and he was fighting that Takamasa man I had never met before in my life and Yutaka my father's bodyguard must have been the one watching them because he looked so serious at their sparr.
"Prince Aoi...you look...nice." Came the muffled laughter of Takanori one of his best friends and the current leader of my father's army. "Shut up Taka you know how his sisters get when they are able to buy new kimionos and such Aoi is their doll to play with." Akira set down his sword and smiled as he made his way over to me. He was more like a brother to me because he had been protecting me every since I was little and I don't know what I would have to do without him that would probably cause me the worst heartbreak in the world. Takamasa made his way over to me and smiled as he let his eye meet mine. "Its nice to finally meet you I have been working for your father for about a year now and its strange that I have never met you...but I have heard such good things." He bowed and chuckled. "Well I hope you are ready to be in my father's army hes blood thirsty and hungry for nothing but land and would never care if any of his men were lost human life means nothing to him." I hissed out and turned away leaving them all standing there baffled.
"Okay thats enough lets get back to sparring Lord Shiroyama says we are leaving at dawn for battle and you two are not even close to being ready!' Yutaka scolded Akira and Takamasa I tried to hold back a sound of sadness that wanted to leave my throat when Akira told me that my father had said he was going to fight for him tomorrow.
Later that night I saw Akira sitting down outside my door, I had just finished my bath and was getting ready for bed thankfully I had gotten that awful kimono off and was dressed in something nice and cozy it was a little cold tonight. "Akira..come into my room please?" I silently begged him and when he nodded his head and followed me into my room I was crying by then. "Please don't go tomorrow..I am scared that you wont come back at all and if you didn't come back I think I would be forever damaged you have always been here for me and now you are thinking of leaving?! I can't let that happen!" I rushed forward wrapping my arms around his chest tightly burying my face into his kimiono. "Prince Aoi I can't ignore my orders from your father I will be killed if I don't go and I don't want to put you through that either." I sobbed quietly wrapping my fingers around his kimono unable to stop my crying. "I know I am weak and I don't want to fight but if you go I know he will use you as a sheild and you wont come back!"
He rested his hands on my shoulders and smiled softly looking down at me. "I promise I will come back Prince Aoi you don't have to worry now get some rest okay? I won't leave your side until the Lord says its time to leave for battle." He picked me up in his arms and took me over to my mat pulling the thick blankets back and laying me down. He took a seat next to me and stroked my hair lulling me into an instant peaceful sleep.
Of course the next time I woke up things would never be the same for me.
