QUICK NOTE: BASED OFF THE MANGA AKABOSHI IBUN SUIKODEN BEFORE IT GOT CANCELED. THIS FAN FICTION TAKES PLACE WITH NO REAL ACTUALLITY TO THE SERIES JUST THE CHARACTERS AS THEY WERE IN THE GAME (if they are from more than one than I will say which one.) AND THE PLACES USED ALL COME FROM HARMONIA EVEN THOUGH THEY REALLY DON'T. NO OCs.
Ch. 1 Tiger Slayer, Hugo
Long ago in the country of Harmonia was ruled through a blood line of royals aided by their knowledge of magic and military might. The country of Harmonia flourished for several years.
Now the year is 446 and Harmonia has become nothing more than a dark death for all who enter from both the bandits and the army. The current ruler Prince Sasarai has no clue what is really going on in the outside world.
However, there is still one hope for this country in the power…

… of the 108 Stars of Destiny.
Outside the village of Chisa the once lush area was now an empty desert devoid of most life. One person walked through the empty dry land alone. The person in fact was male and only fourteen years old. He wore the clothes of a Karaya Clan member and his hair is white that became black at the ends a dagger worn on his back.
Just as he was walking not paying any attention to what was around him until something came out in front of him. It was that of a large blue boar that was looking at the boy as his next meal.
"So you want to play?" The boy asked as he took the dagger on his back out of its sheath.
Meanwhile within Chisa Village.
The village itself was not as lush as it used to be losing about fifty percent of its actual amount of fertile land. The population has seen better times. Originally the village was at its perfect moment of time with no overflow of people nice trading with other towns and villages, but now the town has become slightly overpopulated with the amount of survivors from places that were destroyed by what everyone believed to be bandit attacks.
Living inside the village was a young girl about twelve years old. Her black hair tied back just a little not ever past her neck. She wore a dress consisting of different shades of green that included a white fur like pelt for a collar with green sock and darker green boots that just get to her knees.
"Ah Yun! What you up to today?" A villager asked the young girl walking by.
"Just out for a walk." She informed them.
"Well you better head inside soon today's the day governor Kanaan is coming for the weekly tax." The villager said.
"Don't worry I will." Yun stated as she continued her walk for a little while looking at everything and everyone who she came to know as her family.
You see Yun is one if the only survivor of her village of Alma Kinan. The village itself was always hidden in the forest north of Chisa however with the fact that they kept to themselves most of the time they were easy pickings for what most people believed were bandits. Yun however, knew the truth of what was going on behind the scenes of Harmonia. She saw the real attackers. They were in fact Harmonian soldiers led by the leader of the Imperial Guards himself. Yun kept this from the others out of fear if they were to find the truth of what this country's own government is really doing.
Yun continued her stroll along the village until a person began screaming.
"They're coming governor Kanaan and his personal guards are almost here!" A villager yelled as he came running down the hill.
"Yun quickly get inside." The village leader Sana spoke to Yun.
"Alright." Yun said entering Sana's house but keeping the door slightly opened to see what was going on outside.
Once inside it were only a few minutes until Kanaan is his personal guard arrived into the village. Kanaan was a greedy man who had no real power. He used his own soldiers as simple pawns seeing them as something that could be replaced.
"Welcome Governor Kanaan. You and your soldiers are here for the weekly tax?" Sana asked even though she knew the answer was yes.
"But of course! However we need a tiny bit more this time around just about twice the usual amount this time." Kanaan said.
"But Governor Kanaan we already have given you double last week." Sana said trying to defend her village.
"Your point is?" Kanaan asked with a sneer in his voice.
"You see madam in this world those with power survive longer than those without any." He explained as if he was talking to an idiot.
"Governor Kanaan if this continues we'll hardly have any food for the animals let alone ourselves at this rate." Sana continued to protest.
"Foolish Woman." Kanaan said smacking her to the ground.
"Lady Sana!" Yun yelled rushing outside towards Sana.
"Yun, you weren't supposed to come out." Sana said as Yun helped her up.
"Who is this little piece of garbage?" Kanaan asked not really expecting an answer.
"Sir her outfit it's from the Alma Kinan village." A soldier yelled.
"Alma Kinan now we can't have that. If you hand over that girl I'll leave the whole village alone for the remainder of the month." Kanaan said trying to strike an easy deal.
"Why do you want her?" A villager asked.
"That is not something you really need to worry about." Kanaan said drawing closer towards her.
"Back off." A villager said as he and several others formed a wall between Yun and the governor.
"How very foolish." Kanaan replied as he snapped his fingers telling them to point their lances down at the people.
"You aren't actually planning to kill these people just for one girl are you?" A person asked behind Kanaan which caught everyone's attention due to the fact that he was just noticed now. It was the same boy from outside the village who when we left off with him was starring down a blue boar. Now the boar was being used as a horse and was teary eyed at all the bruises it had on it while the boy looked to be without any scratch or bruise.
"Where did you come from?" Kanaan asked just as surprised as everyone else was staring at the mysterious boy.
"Someone who really can't stand with what's happening to this world." The boy said not really paying attention to the soldiers with the spears pointed at him.
"So you don't care if everyone here die?!" Yun yelled at him.
"Not really it's not like I know any of you." He defended himself.
"That's stupid!" She declared as she ran up to him passing the people and Kanaan and back handing him.
"Ow! What was that for?!" The boy asked annoyed at Yun.
"Only idiots give stupid answers like that when they believe nothing worth fighting for. But, there are things in this world right here and now that need to change." Yun protested.
"Your referring to the Harmonian government and how they're slaughtering this world isn't you?" The boy asked sure of what he just heard.
"What are you talking about?" Yun asked trying to not give away what she really knew.
"Well it doesn't matter since your both being taken in." Kanaan said as they retook notice of what was happening around them. During their little argument they didn't notice all of Kanaan's soldiers now surrounded them.
"Do you guys mind we were having a conversation?" The boy said not really taking any notice at the troops surrounding him.
"Annoying brat, kill them both!" Kanaan said as the soldiers began charging towards them.
"You know you really shouldn't…" The boy began taking the dagger from the sheath and in only an instance wiped out half the soldiers around him.
"… underestimate someone by their appearance." He finished with the bodies of the defeated soldiers down on the ground.
"What was that?!" Kanaan exclaimed surprised at what just occurred.
"Governor Kanaan it's possible that boy may be one of the members of those bandits you know the ones that can take on thousands of soldiers on their own!" One of the remaining soldiers yelled as everyone realized what Kanaan and his forces were truly up against.
"Then I will be leaving. The rest of you keep him occupied." Kanaan said leaving his troops behind and making a run for it.
"Now that's no fun at all." The boys said as he vanished and in only a few seconds later all the troops were defeated with the boy's back to them.
"He defeated them so quickly." Yun said as she and the villagers looked at him in awe.
"Dang it seems the big guy got away." The boy said returning his dagger to its sheath.
"Thank you for everything young man." Sana said as Yun, several villagers, and herself went up towards him to thank him.
"Just don't rely on us or you may just die. In one's life the best to rely on yourself then on others." The boy stated and began walking away.
The boy continued to walk towards an unknown direction. Then suddenly he stopped right in the middle of the path.
"Hey are you coming out or what?" He stated as he looked over at a large boulder on the ground. Then slowly Yun poked her head out from it.
"How long did you notice I was following you?" Yun asked walking towards the boy.
"I've known you were there the moment I left the village. So why are you following me?" He asked.
"I want to come with you." The voice had little confidence in her voice.
"You do know that we are technically going against the whole government." He explained to see her next reaction.
"I know, and I know that if I don't follow you my world will just be the same. Day in day out just waiting to see someone else do something. I don't want to be like that; if at all possible I wish to join you in the battle field!" Her voice rose with confidence at her explanation.
"Hugo." He said.
"What's a hugo?" Yun asked confused.
"That's my name Hugo." Hugo said.
"So where are we going?" Yun asked.
"My village or what's left of it." Hugo said as a view of a town entered. They entered the village or what's left of it to find it completely destroyed.
"What happened?" Yun asked looking at all the destruction.
"To the populace it was bandits. For the government it was called getting rid of a possible threat." Hugo explained as they continued walking.
"Hugo, someone else is here." Yun said as they both hid behind a remnant of a wall to see a large man who was bald dressed as a monk with the shaved head and barefoot. He was holding a large iron rod.
"Dang he noticed us." Hugo said as the large man crashed the wall forcing Hugo to draw his dagger and push Yun out of the way.
At the end of each chapter I will place the name and star number and nickname (based on the water margin) down here just not this chapter.
What should the 108 stars group be called? You decide by reviewing.
I knew I wanted a suikoden story and I really liked how Akaboshi was going to do their 108 stars of destiny.
Review if you have a star of destiny from one of the games or a character from one of them that wasn't a star that you might want to see I can try.
