Our story starts with a young woman being knighted as first female knight in the kingdoms history. She had lived her life in the service of the king. She was an excellent warrior and always completed her tasks to the highest quality and earned a reputation through out the kingdom as the most revered knight to come in ages. But this was a special day or at least that's what she thought for she was going to ask for the money rightfully owed to her. At the ceremony the king gave her a new mission instead. This mission was to escort the princess somewhere safe and then come report back for any further instruction. After the ceremony the woman met with the princess outside the castle gates. As they started out on their journey nether saying much more than the occasional watch your step or when is the next time we are going to rest.
After a few hours of walking the princess said she was tired and refused to walk another step. So the woman with great ease picked and ran for a straight hour going thought several villages till she hit the edge of the kingdom. At this the princess demanded to be put down so they could stay the night there for no one should know them there. So for the first time since the start of the journey they talked. "hey knight since we'll be spending some time together what they call you back home."
"They call me Sango, princess Kagome"
"How are we going to stay unknown if you keep calling me princess?"
"I see what per say shall I call you then."
"Just call me Kagome."
"Sango how did you become such a good knight so young, you can't be more than 2years older than me making you roughly 17."
"well Kagome your right when I was about 8 I would do little missions and jobs with the best knights and assassins, since my parents died I had no one to care for me. So I learned to fight to survive earning me a name and some gold with it help me make it this far."
"I have another question Sango how come at the ceremony you seemed so sad and angry, weren't you happy to be knighted?"
"Kagome I respectfully withdraw my answer, hey why don't we replenish our supplies in that shop and get on our way."
By now it was getting dark out as Kagome agreed to getting back to walking for she even at the age of 15 was afraid of sleeping in the dark without a torch. As they enter the shop they realize it's not an ordinary shop but a tavern. Kagome insisted they get a few drinks before they leave even though Sango refused the offer Kagome drank a few then went off to the restroom. After 10 minutes kagome hadn't come back.
