Ok, I know that the title sucks but I can't think of anything else. Also, I'm really mad at T-Virus
now because of her new chapter of "When a Shape Shifter Girl Moves in with Gorillaz," it's not
posted yet but I got to hear it because I just got off the phone with her. If you haven't read the story
yet do, I haven't read it all yet but it's really good, even though she is a psychopath. Anyway,
here's the disclaimer: I do not own Fushigi Yugi or anyone in it, however, I do own Mikun. I came
up with her in my own mind. I do not mind you using her, but just ask before doing so, also, make
sure you give me credit for her. Anyways enjoy the story, also just so you know, this is both the
prologue and chapter 1, ENJOY!

Prologue
A young woman stumbled down the back-streets of the Konan Empire. Her long flowing
maroon hair covering her face as she clutched her stomach. Finally she reached an ally where she
collapsed, however before she fell into the foreboding sleep she whispered something which no
one could hear.
Later on she awoke in what appeared to be a hospital wing. Right before returning to the
world of sleep she mumbled out, "I'm sorry Shun-kei, so sorry."

Ch. 1: A Change of Character
Thick black lashes flutter open to reveal the shimmering depths of mauve eyes. The young
woman known as Mikun sat up in the bed as she was taking in her surroundings. Realizing at once
that she was not in her own room but in a hospital wing of some sort. At last after much thinking
she decided to go and look for the person who brought her here, while constantly trying to figure
out where she was.
After what she swore was two hours of walking around aimlessly she finally found
someone. After she looked at the man's clothing she realized where she was, she was in the
palace! Knowing she was committing a felony by being there she thought it best to get out as soon
as possible. However before she could get away the man spotted her.
"Hey, what are you doing in here!?" the man shouted with his deep, rough voice. Before
she could think straight she ran away with the guard right behind. After a few minutes he caught up
with her and grabbed her wrist. "Now tell me how you got in here!" he yelled while squeezing her
wrist.
"I don't know, I just woke up here!" she screamed in pain while tears threatened to spill
down her pale cheeks. To hearing this he just squeezed more receiving a scream of pain from the
delicate young woman, "Ow! Stop it your hurting me!"
Then form down the hall you could see someone running to where they were. Mikun looked
to see who it was and when she turned back around the man was gone. She fell to her knees while
gripping her injured arm, amazingly through all that torment she never once shed tears (this line
holds some importance later, I promise). Once her savior got to her others were with him. He was
a young man, a bit older then Mikun, with long light brown hair and golden-brown eyes (think
about how Hotohori looks, just different).
Her breath caught, he was gorgeous. His hair up in the imperial crown, wait, crown? HE
WAS THE EMPEROR!!!! "Are you all right?" he asked as his velvet voice caressed the words.
"I'm all right Your Highness," came Mikun's small reply. Her took hold of her wrist in
order to help the patite girl up, but as soon as he gripped it she yelped in pain. That made the
handsome emperor draw back in surprise. Then he took her wrist, lighter this time, to examine it.
After that her turned to one of the people who was with him and commanded, "Take her to
the hospital wing, I think it's broken." With that order Mikun was lead back to where she started
from.
Hours later Mikun just sat on the bed she was given, resting her broken arm in her lap, she
appeared to be in deep thought. Then the door opening snapped her out of her trance. She looked
up and was shocked to find the Empress Houki standing there. "Hello," the empress's voice was
soft and sweet, in a way it reminded Mikun of her mother. She shook her head slightly as so the
empress wouldn't see. Suddenly the sweet voice of the empress broke through the silence, "So
you're the one Boushine was talking about, you're quite pretty. Oh, speaking of which Boushine
would like to speak with you." (Ok, I messed up here. It is now going to be in Mikun's POV for the
rest of the story, sorry if this messes you up.)
So after I got dressed in my kimono (she was in a robe to all you perverts out there, GET
YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER) Empress Houki took me to see his highness Emperor
Boushine (long title). Once we got there his back was turned to us. Her Highness left and closed
the door behind her. Timidly I walked forward and spoke, "You wished to see me highness?" With
a sweep and rustle of fabric he turned to face me.
"May I ask your name?" he inquired with a strong voice.
"My name is Mikun Hireshete, Your Highness," came my meek reply.
"How's your arm?"
"It's fine," I bow my head.
"That's good, say, how would you like to become part of my harem?" My head snaps up
and all I can do is stare, "Then it's settled. You will be part of my harem."
I start to protest but before I can he calls someone by the name of Kurin. A few minutes
later a woman just a bit older than me walks in. Her long black hair was in a braid and her deep
emerald eyes were hidden behind her bangs. "Mikun-san, this woman will be your hand-maid.
Kurin-chan, please treat her well," and with that I was lead to my new room.
Once we got to my room I took in my surroundings. I stood paralyzed with amazement. The
walls are pure tan and the floor is made of cheery wood. But that's not what amazed me, there
were golden figurines everywhere. Although the biggest is one of the Beast-God Suzaku. It was
made of pure gold and had rubies for eyes. Just looking at it made the right side of my chest burn.
However I was able to force that down before anyone noticed.
"Lady Mikun," that was the first time I had heard Kurin speak. "I do believe we should be
getting you presentable for His Highness." With that said she leads me to the vanity.
As she brushes my hair I decide to ask the question that had been gnawing away at me.
"Kurin-san, you and the emperor seem quite close, are you?"
"I guess so, we've known each other for quite some time," she replied. I just nod in turn.
After about an hour or so I was finally "presentable." My common clothes had been
replaced with that of a Nobel woman, and my hair had been done in some kind of loops on top of
my head (think Houki style). "There, now you look gorgeous, uh, not that you didn't before, but you
know," Kurin stood back and admired her job. After being presented to the emperor once more I
didn't see him in my four months of being here.
I don't really mind being here. The people, for the most part, are really nice. I've also
become very good friends with Kurin. I've come to learn that she has been very good friend's with
Emperor Boushine since they were little kids, however she doesn't get to spend much time with
him anymore. From all that I've heard I believe that His Highness is probably the best emperor
Konan has ever had. As I hear footsteps approach I look up only to find the emperor. He looks so
glum, oh yeah, I remember Kurin-chan said he had meeting to day. I bet he is kind of bored with all
of this. I know I couldn't live if........................ wait, that's it!

Oooooooooooohhhh, cliffhanger, don't you just love em, NOT! Anyway, that's it for chapter 1.
I've already started on chapter 2 so maybe I'll have it done soon. I hope you enjoyed what I have
so far, and please review. Also remember, no flames, I just can't take it, JA!
