Disclaimers – Don't own any of the characters and suchlike from the game. Konami does. I can only wish I own them.

Thank you for choosing to read this, my attempt at Suikoden Fan Fiction with brand new characters created by fans of the Game. There are currently Thirteen Chapters that I want to upload to Fanfiction.net, and this is the first. I'll probably provide some background information on the new characters at some point. This story sticks pretty well to the Suikoden II storyline, although it will branch off on it's own eventually. Hope you enjoy what I've written so far!

Kahri's Story - Chapter One

Who Knew What Lay Ahead?

(Location – Near Ryube Village)

---

"ARRGH!!! Not more of these stupid Bonbons..."

The Bonbons in question had thought they found easy prey. Fluffy Monsters who could be quite dangerous if not handled carefully.

Luckily the person moaning about them did know how to handle them. He looked pretty ordinary really, Short Dark Blonde Hair, with similarly ordinary clothing. However one thing about him did stand out pretty well...

The Giant Spatula that hung from his back...

The Giant Spatula he was now attacking the Bonbons with...

He had attacked quickly, and he brought down his Spatula quickly and aimed straight for the nearest Bonbon.

*WHAP*

One less Bonbon to harass him.

*WHAP*

Make that Two...

*WHAP*

Make that no more Bonbons left to harass him...Bonbons usually left a few Potch behind, and he wasted no time in picking up the scattered coins. Not much, but better than nothing.

"Sheesh...where is that stupid Town anyway? All I want now is a good, long nap..."

Which was when he was suddenly mown down by something small, yellow and moving very quickly...

He hit the ground pretty hard, and the Potch he had just picked up scattered everywhere.

"Ouch..."

He managed to sit up, quickly looking around to see what had knocked him down...but there was nothing there. Very strange.

He got back up again, and was quickly knocked back down again as something ran right into him...

"Ow...sorry." It said.

Better make that something a someone. A girl to be exact. Quite a pretty girl actually. Although her dress sense left a lot to be desired.

"No problem..."

"Hey have you seen Bonaparte running past here?" The Girl said.

Bonaparte? Why does that sound so familiar...?

"Well...something did knock me down before you re-knocked me down."

"AHH!!!! That was Bonaparte! Which way did he go?!?!?"

"Um...towards that town over there, miss...?"

"Oh, sorry, how rude of me – I'm Millie."

Millie...so familiar...where have I heard that name before...?

"I'm Kahri."

Millie smiled

"Then I'm sorry for knocking you down then Kahri. Are you heading for that town too? We might as well go together!"

Kahri shrugged

"Okay by me. Um...what exactly is a Bonaparte anyway?"

Millie looked surprised, until reality dawned on her

"Oh! You don't know who my Bonaparte is, silly me. Bonaparte is my Pet Groundhog. But he was acting strangely for a while...and he just ran off this morning."

Kahri listened intently to Millie's tale

"Well, I guess I could help you find him...her...it?"

Millie smiled again

"You'll help me?!? Thank you very much! Come on then, let's go find Bonaparte!"

What am I thinking?...so much for my nap...but there's something strange about this Millie, and I wanna find out what it is...what am I letting myself in for?

Kahri sighed as he and Millie headed onwards towards Ryube Village.
