"New Leader "

A little twelve years old girl with beautiful emerald orbs and short auburn hair was dressed in a black combat outfit practicing martial arts with her father in their big backyard filled with trees and flowers.

"Sakura darling, you're getting better and better," her father Kinomoto Fujitaka, who was also dressed in a black outfit, complimented her. He possesses short auburn hair and dark brown orbs.

They were having a fun and competitive time until a loud knock on their door was heard, which ruined the father and daughter moment. The owner of the knock happened to be a silver armed soldier who came to deliver a message.

"Kimonoto-sama, the King has summoned you to his palace." The soldier saluted to Fujitaka once he opened the door.

"I see. You don't mind if I take my daughter along, right?" Fujitaka asked.

"No, sir."

Since Fujitaka has experienced talking to so many different leveled soldiers, he automatically knew that the soldier standing in front of their house was a newbie. So he thought this was his chance to take advantage of this newbie.

"I change my mind. I won't be taking my daughter anymore. I'll take my son instead." Without thinking, the soldier immediately agreed with Fujitaka's words.

Fujitaka walked back inside and began dressing Sakura as a boy and tied her short hair into a small ponytail. He saw her confused emerald eyes and immediately told her that he'd explain everything when they return home. Without much thinking, she nodding her head in agreement. Fujitaka took her hand, and together they walked to the palace.

Sitting on the throne was a man with white shoulder-length hair and ruby orbs. The man was King Kuja, who has been ruling the Tachibana Kingdom for the past ten years. He was drinking a cup of tea while waiting for his long time friend to arrive. After hearing the huge double doors open, he placed his cup of tea on the tray that the maid was holding and stood up to greet his friend.

"Fujitaka, it's been awhile since we've seen each other." Kuja hugged Fujitaka and did not notice Sakura's presence at all.

After sitting down, Fujitaka went straight to the point and asked why he was summoned to the palace all of a sudden.

"My dear friend, a wise man from the far northeast sent me a message that the Li Kingdom will declare war in the near future."

"Wait, let me sum this up. You want me to lead the army, am I right?" Fujitaka asked.

"Yes. You're the on—" The king was interrupted by Fujitaka, who suddenly stood up.

"Kuja, as much as I like to lead your army... I've retired for the past six years. I've retired ever since my only son Touya got married to Queen Kaho. He became their king and general for their army." He paused before going on "That is why I've brought..." Fujitaka placed his hand on Sakura's head. "She'll lead your army."

Kuja stood up from his throne and just stared at his friend. He thought to himself, 'Is he joking?' But by the look of Fujitaka eyes, Kuja knew Fujitaka was serious.

"But women are not allowed to join." He pointed out his laws.

"That is why we'll fool everyone that she's a really a 'he'. My daughter is indeed different from all the other girls. She has been training with me ever since she was five tears old, and she's also a very skillful twelve years old girl. By the time she's eighteen, Sakura will be more than ready to lead the army."

"I don't know about this." Kuja shook his head not knowing if it was a good or bad idea. It was all too sudden.

"Kuja, trust me. Everything will turn out great in the near future. Remember we, the Kinomotos, are the strongest clan." Fujitaka placed his hands on Kuja's shoulder, who was wearing a smile on his face. Fujitaka immediately knew what Kuja's final answer was and pulled him into a hug while saying a small thank you.

From that day on, Sakura's path has been set. Her father supportive and helpful father helped her become stronger, physically and mentally. From day to night, they would train endlessly. Then she finally turned eighteen. And just like what her father have said years ago, she'll become the general and lead them to victory.

But what our dear Akito (the name Fujitaka gave to Sakura; she'll be using the name while she's under disguise) didn't know was that this was only the beginning of her long and rough journey. A journey that will involve major conflicts and problems, but will change her life forever.
