Your World and Mine

- A Prologue -


Japan was a large and rich kingdom that was led by a kind and fair king. Under his command, he succeeded in uniting the once warfare land and made it into a place where everyone could live in peace. The citizens were all happy and prosper, smiles were upon their faces…until one night that tragedy happens…The king, his families and the guards of his castles were found brutally murdered by an unknown suspect. Strangely, the murderer didn't leave behind one single clue and the search for the murderer reach a dead end. This tragedy caused uproar all over the land and raised one single question in their mind. Who in the world could murder an entire heavily guarded castle without leaving a clue behind? But the problems didn't stop there, it was known later on that among the dead bodies of the castle inhabitants, there is one missing, the king's nine year old daughter who is also the heiress of the throne. The princess' body was not found anywhere in the castle and her fate was unknown since. This tragedy made the 4 high governors that were left of the kingdom to decide the next holder of the throne. However, there is none that could replace the previous king. According to the royal lineage, the throne should go to the last one in line, which is also the missing princess. Blinded by self ego, the 4 governors sought war between each other to gain power and destroyed the peaceful country. They then divided Japan into 4 territories (North, South, East and West where each of them was ruled by each of the governor. A country built on ego and power-thirst will not turn out okay and slowly but surely, destruction came closer each day. There is no more justice in the land. All the riches look down on the poor. The differences between the classes create more trouble that brought more and more problems to the already troubled land. It is not safe anymore for anyone to live in. There is no more trust between one another. The land was once again engulfed in fear…

The story begins twelve years later in a town near the suburbs of the South Territory. It was one peaceful night, unlike any other night where the town was usually noisy. A mirthless loud laughter filled the air from one of the biggest and heavily guarded mansion in the town.

"That was fun, eh?" a drunken mid-aged man grinned to the vivacious blonde woman dangling in his arm as they walked through the mansion's corridor "where do you want to go next?"

The long-haired blonde gave a smile "well…anywhere that is…private would be alright" she said seductively, winking at the man. The man laughs again and was opening his mouth to reply when the blonde cut him short.

"Say…what is in your basement? I heard you have a secret room there…" the blonde's tone was seductive yet still sounds so sweet and innocent. It was as though all was just and act. But the heavily drunken man was highly unaware of that and proceeds to impress his guest.

"Yes I do…and this is a secret between you and me…" he winked again at the blonde who pouted playfully "not a soul knows what's in it except me"

The blonde gave a thoughtful face "really? But I'm curious…can you show me where it is? I promise I won't tell anyone" she added with a kiss in his cheek. It was all it needs to get the man brought her to the basement, which required a lot of unlocking before they reached a heavily bolted safe.

"What's inside?" curiosity was visible in the blonde's voice

The man grinned again and started unlocking the heavy locks one by one, and with a huge effort he pulled the heavy stone door open "my priceless treasures" he said in satisfaction. Inside the safe were heaps and heaps of gold coins, some glittering gemstones and another priceless kind of treasure. The man looked round at the blonde expectantly "what do you think?"

The blonde gave a thinking face "is this what you get from robbing the poor small people? Shameful of you…NOW!" she bellowed suddenly, shocking the man out of his wits.

"What?" the man looked around him, suddenly loud and hurried footsteps were heard towards the basement and in the next second, a group of people were seen outside the basement entrance.

"Who are you?" he snarled at his blonde companion "why you little-"a karate chop on his neck stopped him from continuing the sentence.

"Well, we certainly know what will come next with that statement" a handsome short haired blonde that came out of no where said as the man fell with a thud on the ground, unconscious "nice work, Minako" he took off his silver mask and winked at the other blonde.

The woman known as Minako gave a snort "that was a piece of cake. Just, get the hell outta here before I remember that I kissed him twice today"

"Lips?" the handsome blonde teasingly asks, mischievous shone on his teal eyes

"Cheek" Minako hissed as she stared dagger at the blonde, who gave a chuckle "I'm not that cheap, FYI"

"Haruka!" a dark-haired man appeared out-of-breath at the basement entrance "we gotta dash quickly, the guards are coming!" Haruka quickly look round at his other companions, telling them to clean out the safe and get the hell out of here. Less than a moment later, the priceless treasures were inside the sacks which they carried out of the mansion. Haruka stuck a piece of paper to the safe's door, grinned, and followed her group leaving the basement.

Another herd of hurried heavy footsteps were heard again before a group of guards appeared at the basement a moment later.

"My Lord!" one of them exclaimed when he saw his master lying on the ground and the safe vault empty. The drunken man was shaken awake and he roared in anger when he saw his treasures were stolen.

"Get them before their rotten asses left this place!!" the guards rushed out again leaving him growling in anger in the basement. Out of the corner of his eyes, the man noticed a piece of paper stuck on the door of his safe. He grabbed it mercilessly and read it, before tearing it in pieces and stormed out of the place.

This whole lot belongs to the people; don't get big-headed just because you stole it from them.

Thanks to you, these will soon return to their respectful owners.

Have a good day,

Silver Arrows

19 year old Lady Kaioh Michiru walked slowly as she stared of the dimly lit road ahead of her. A sigh escapes her lips, because of the war that had started 12 years ago; the usually peaceful country had been chaotic. The usually crowded road filled with warmth and laughter turned abruptly to silent and menacing. Everyone is afraid to get out of their house at night now, with all that troubles around. Robbery, theft, murders, you name it. The aqua-haired girl really regrets the actions of the government, who acted blindly upon their own greed. This country should deserve a better future…

Sudden hoof footsteps were heard from somewhere in front of her, snapping the girl out of the reverie and quickly flattened herself against the wall on her left to make way for the rushing carriages to go through. Frowning slightly, Michiru wondered what in the world the riders were thinking for speeding like that. Other hoof footsteps approached the girl and Michiru raised her head, and the time suddenly stops ticking, rose petals started falling and freeze-frame moment starts playing.

Meeting her blue eyes was a pair of dazzlingly beautiful teals staring back at her. They were beautiful and deep, Michiru almost wanted to drown its beauty…yet those eyes filled with sadness. The kind of sadness that will never be able to be washed away…Her eyes caught sight of it's owner, a handsome blonde in midnight-blue cloak that rippled behind him who was riding a white horse. It felt so surreal here with Michiru staring at the fairy-tale-type of Prince Charming galloping past her, his teal eyes still locked with hers. But the handsome knight broke the eye contact and continued galloping away; far away within her reach. It took at least several moments before the aqua-haired girl could stop herself from spacing out.

"Those eyes…" she clutched her heart; a sudden warm feeling had appeared there at the sight of those dazzling teals eyes of the mysterious blonde "they felt so lonely…"
