Princess Knight
Chapter one: Runaway Maiden
Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon or any of its characters. I do on the other-hand own the idea of Miki and he/she is copyrighted to me, though the character she is derived from is not ^^;;
A/N: Well you know what? I cannot control my head for the life of me!! Don't get mad I don't make you read all my fics @__@ In fact you might want to limit what you read or I might rub off on you, creating another monster! --;;
I'm just thankful summer is almost here. Or I'd really be dead by the time I finished a story O_o; Summer~!!
It's a semi-midevil fic but fantasy in some aspects also. Like I'll have dragons and ninjas in it ^^; So expect the unexpected! I'll also have a wide variety of love triangles in it because they're so fun! ^^;

"I will not marry him!!" Stomping her foot in anger, Princess Mimi of Tachikawa fumed at her father. "How dare you set up this marriage without my approval?! I will never marry without love!"
Sighing, King Tachikawa rubbed his aching head. "Honey, I know how you must feel but I have given you months to find a suitable husband! And you have turned them all away! If anything happens to me or your mother, you must be ready to rule with a king by your side."
"It takes more then a few mere months to find your soulmate, father!! You may be King but I am your daughter and am just as stubborn as you are! I refuse to marry the Duke of Asbore and will never consent to a pre-arranged marriage!!"
Swiveling away from him, she stomped down the corridor to her room, in silent fury. What was her father thinking? She would never consent! He knew that! Yet he still...
Making her lose her train of thought, an old painting caught her attention. Walking up for a closer inspection she realized it was the portrait of the legendary maiden, that her grandma had sent at the time of her birth.
The painting was of a beautiful women, dressed in holy white garments, with a strange symbol on her forehead. She had an erie green light glowing around her and Mimi guessed she must've been and angel or goddess of some- sort from the olden days. Not much of an interest to her but still lovely. She didn't know why it caught her eye all of a sudden...
Walking the rest of the way to her room, she plopped onto her bed, scrunching up her nose. What was she to do? No matter how much she argued, Mimi knew her father was set on marrying her off to this duke person. What was a girl going to do?
Her hand automatically reaching for the necklace around her neck, Mimi sighed softly. She just couldn't marry a man she didn't love. She had to get away somehow. Away from this place and label, they called 'princess.'
She was sick of it. She was sick of since she was a child and was still sick of it!! Jumping off her bed in a rush, Mimi was struck with a brilliant idea. Sneaking into her cousin Chesta's chambers, she rummaged through his belongings, before returning to her room quickly.
'I will go out and find myself...The real me, not who everyone wants me to be...'

"Ah! This feels so good!" Whipping through the forest, on one of the palace horses, a young figure sighed into the night air. Strapped onto his back was a single long sword and he was dressed in traveling warrior's clothes.
Lifting off the hood, of the cloak he was wearing, the moonlight shined onto his face, giving the reader a good look at his features. But instead of the dashing young man we were expecting, there sat Princess Mimi!!
Her hair chopped off and getting rid of the frilly dresses, Mimi had decided to trade those things in for common clothes and a weapon. What was she thinking?
"I told my father I would never marry that man...and if running away is the only way to gain my freedom then so be it! From now on I am no longer Princess Mimi! I am now Miki Tachikawa, traveling warrior of the digital land!" (World)
She knew it would be safer for her to get rid of her lastname also but it was her last tie to her old life and family. She still loved them and hoped the best for her dear mother and father.
'Take care Otou-san and Kaa-san! You're daughter has died on the night of the full moon but a new life has awakened from her ashes!!'
Riding off into the night, with a cry of "Hyaa!!" she wondered if she would make in the vast world, no longer royalty but a commoner in disguise.
***
"Ohhh!! I'm sooo hungry!!" Holding her stomach, Mimi slumped over her horse's head, in hunger. "I can't believe I remembered everything but food!! What am I going to do?"
Riding for hours, Mimi had almost given up hope on not starving to death on her first day, when she suddenly saw the shape of houses up ahead. Straining her eyes, she realized she was heading straight for a town! She was saved!! (duh =p)
Charging, she made her steed go faster, as the auroma of food enticed her senses. "Ya! Ya! Go Palmon, charge!!"
Reaching the entrance to the small villiage, Mimi quickly jumped off, leading Palmon by her reins. Walking around, lead by her nose she ignored that stares from the people around her.
"Who's that?"
"I dunno, looks like a warrior."
"Another one? Where are they all coming from?"
"They come to try to win the Countess's daughter's hand and the magic power that come with her."
"All fail the test of destroying the demon terrorizing the family though and leave."
"Do you think he will try?"
"Nah, and even if he does no one ever beats the demon Hieze."
"He sure is handsome though!"
Her nose bringing her to a shabby looking resturant, Mimi's mouth watered. 'Food!'
Tying Palmon up outside, she rushed in taking a seat. While she fantasized about all the delicious meals she would order, a kind looking girl with red hair walked up to the table. "Hello there, my name is Sora and I'll be your server."
Snapping out of her daze, Mimi smiled a the girl with a goofy grin, still thinking about food. Her actions made Sora blush, and the girl lowered her eyes to escape the stare. 'H-He's really cute!'
"Hmm..." Thinking over her options as Sora read them out, Mimi tried to decide. "Well I really like curry...but the chicken rosemary sounds good...and those strawberry pancakes sound yummy but I really need a meal...and...well...AH! I can't decide!!"
Laughing at the warriors' antics, Sora giggled sweetly. "You're an odd guy for a fighter. Are you really one or just pretending?" she asked jokingly but part of her wanted to know if he was in town to defeat Hieze.
"Huh?" Blushing, Mimi sweatdropped. Did she look that obvious? "I'm a warrior...just not err...very experienced yet."
It was true, Mimi did know how to fight, very well in fact from sneaking away from her princess duties to go train with the knights in the evenings. But she had never actually been in a real battle. That worried her but she pushed it aside, more interested in what she was going to eat then her future.
"You know what? Bring me a bit of everything!" Mimi finally decided.
"A-As y-you wish." Sora blanched, a sweatdrop forming on her head. 'Can he eat that much?!'
"Mmm!! So yummy! This! This...and this! Sugoi!!" Trying everything on her plate, from the fried nuts to the chocolate covered riceballs, Mimi was in heaven!
Watching her from across the table with a smile, Sora giggled each time she said something. "Miki-kun you're so cute! You remind me of a little kid, more then any warrior!"
Grinning sheepishly, Mimi laughed. "I guess you're right. I'm not too ferocious am I?"
Suddenly the two heard shouts and cries from outside. Both jumping, they rushed to the door to find out what the commotion was. "Oh no!"
"What?" Puzzled, Mimi scatched her head, as she saw Sora's face distort into a look of horror.
"Mother!!" Girl ran off into the frenzied street of villiagers, leaving Mimi behind, more confused then ever.
Grabbing one of the scared townspeople, Mimi asked him, "What's going on? Why is everyone running around?"
"Hieze has decided to kill us all!! All the warriors must of angered him! He has taken the Countess prisoner and is setting the town to ablaze!!"
"What?!" Watching as the man ran the opposite direction of the flames, Mimi quickly grabbed her sword. She didn't know what was going on but she couldn't let all these people burn! Plus Sora had run into the fire and she had to pay the kind girl for the dinner!"
Running strait into the chaos, Mimi tightened her grip on the sword and touched her pendant with her free hand. 'Please...let me help these people! This villiage!'
-TBC...?
A/N: So how do you like? A little cliffy so it keeps you wanting more ^_- That is if you want more ^^;;
Will Mimi be able to save the day? And why did Sora run off in alarm? And who is the dashing man that will show up in the next chapter?! Do you wanna know? Do ya reeeeaaallllyyyy wanna know? Then REVIEW!!!!! Or ya don't get anymore --;;
