It may not seem like it, but I was born a princess...
"But mom-" I whined to my mother. She left me home while my older four and younger two siblings made their way to school.
"Honey, I know. We don't want to do this either, but we don't have enough to pay the taxes and to pay off your father's debts," my mother cooed, placing an elegant hand on my cheek.
"But mom... I can work. Take me out of school and I can be an assassin for hire."
"Would you rather us all die? If you don't go with the taiyoukai then you sentence us all to death," she said and frowned.
"No. I will miss you guys though," I whispered and left my house to line up with the other two girls from our village that had to be taken by the lord for unpaid debts or the inability to pay taxes.
"You girl," the lord said, pushing his hair over his shoulder effortlessly.
"Which one?" I snarled, angry at the man for taking me from my family that needed me so much.
"You," he snarled right back at me, his eyes narrowed.
"I have a name mutt face," I spat and looked down on him... Guess it was just in my cat nature.
He held me by my neck and I growled lowly. I clawed at his hand as he raised me from the ground. I went to kick him but he caught my foot before it hit his face. I pulled my other foot up to his face and left a pretty small foot print on his left cheek. I smirked and twisted from his grip. Falling to the ground,I kicked his feet out from under him. He fell back on his butt, his golden amber eyes met my emerald green hues that held flecks of hazel amber.
"Got a problem mutt face?" I asked and dusted myself off, brushing my maroon hair from my face. He rose to his feet and walked back to me as I smirked smugly at him. His guards shackled me without me noticing until it was too late. My hands were behind my back and a chain connected my feet together so I had enough room to walk. I growled as I was forced into a bowing position, my knees falling on the ground.
"You shall obey me or your precious family will be killed right before your eyes," he smirked but my eyes wouldn't show him any fear as I looked to him, defeat written on my face, contradicting my eyes.
"You bastard,"I murmured under my breath and caught his foot as it almost made contact with my face. The shackles lay broken at my heels.
"Come," he smirked and the other girls looked to me. I spat on his shoe and maneuvered to my feet seeing as my hands were still shackled and the guards got another pair of shackles on my feet. A chain was connected to my feet and to the other girls' shackles and to my hands so they could pull us along if we weren't going as fast as they wanted us to go.
"I'm sorry mom," I whispered and looked back to the palace in which I grew up. My mom watched us worriedly holding my little brother's hand and little sister in her other arm.
"You there, cat demon. What is it that you are called?" one of the three guards asked and looked to me. I turned my nose up at him and uttered not a word. "Answer me!" he shouted and I rolled my eyes.
"I don't give my name to humans," I refused and walked ahead of the guards, bringing the two human girls with me.
"But you're half huma-" the guard went to say and I caught the man by his throat, bringing him up off the ground.
"You jackass! I'm full blooded cat demon. I smell like human simply because I school with humans and I live with humans. I'm forced to sleep in the same village with those of human decent. Don't ever mistake me for a filthy half-breed," I snarled and threw him into a nearby tree, regaining the air of nobility about me. "What do you want mutt face?" I asked when I felt his gaze upon me, walking up next to him.
He smirked, thinking to himself apparently and kept walking. His human guards came between the two of us. I would have so started tearing them apart if my family's lives' weren't on my hands. And if I wasn't chained to two human girls. I sighed in frustration and followed quietly after the demon lord.
"Hey lord mutt face. What's yer name?"
"Don't dare insult the lord like that!"
"Ohhhh! I'm so scared by a human. What're you gonna do, poke me in the side with your spear? I'm terrified," I laughed and challenged another one of this dog's men.
"Sesshomaru," he said quietly and I snarled at the man. "Now that you know my name, use it you filthy cat!" he growled at me.
"Why don't you make me?" I snarled back.
He picked me up by my neck and held me above him. My hands flew to his wrist. I growled lowly at him and stared down to his golden amber hues. He stared at me for a moment before I hacked a giant lugie and spat it at him. He growled at me again and gripped my neck harder, almost closing off my windpipe completely. He wiped the spit from his face, hand glowing an eerie green that stung at my flesh. But like before, I showed him no pain. He growled and threw me down.
By now the sun was just now setting and we kept traveling, despite the protests of the two girls behind me.
"Oh shut up! If you're to work for lord Mutt fac- err... Sesshomaru, you'd better learn to deal. You'd be workin' from sun up to sun down," I growled and glanced over my shoulder. "We've only been walkin' since about two or three," I grinned and closed my eyes, walking behind the demon lord.
By midnight, I was humming to myself, dragging the other two girls behind me. I growled mid-song every now and again to keep them going. These girls were really weak! Even the human guards who stood up to me earlier were tired. I rolled my eyes. Humans were really weak beings.
"Sesshomaru... Maybe we should stop. The humans aren't really faring too well," I said and stopped, making the others stop.
He headed off to the woods and found a clearing. He told us to stay there and I growled, flashing my teeth. I saw his eyes flash red and smiled. The girls and guards fell asleep. I looked up to the moon and wrapped my tail around my arms, my ears twitched as I looked to Sesshomaru who walked back into the clearing.
"Your name wench."
"I don't feel obligated to tell you," I said, focusing back on the moon. Full moon. I glanced to him, smiling slightly.
"Your name," he growled.
"Mmmmh... wouldn't you like to know," I said and closed my eyes curling my tail around myself, feigning sleep. He growled and jumped into a nearby tree, his eyes never leaving my black cat ears or maroon hair. I did go to sleep for a couple hours that night. I awoke before the humans did and stretched, yawning and sticking my rump up in the air just a little bit. I sat up with a smile on my face.

Today was going to be a good day. Sesshomaru jumped from the tree and landed in front of me.
"Your name," he demanded, glaring down at me. I looked back up at him with a smile spread across my features.

... and they don't have a clue
