The Kink In His Armour

Authors notes: Alright! This has been a story I've been itching to wright for a while but never got around to it. So, to set things striaght, there's one important thing you should know: This has NOTHING to do with the InuYasha series. Except for the fact that the Shichinintai ARE undead zombies. It still takes place in the fedual era though... So, like always, please read and review. I'll update as soon as I finish a chapter.

Disclaimer: I hate this part- I DON'T OWN INUYASHA! As much as I wish I did, I don't...

Story Summery: A missioned that seemed impossible. But it was an offerer that couldn't be refused. But not everything goes as planned when love is introduced as an enemy... Ban/San, San/Mir Rated for violence and language.

Chapter One- The First Sighting

"I didn't know what to think. It all seemed so...I dun'no, weird? Perfect? No, to-good-to-be-true... I mean, how can you re-do the past? It's just not doable. Although, I was brought back from the dead. I had my body, but it just didn't seems like I was fully there...I looked the same, except I felt things differently. I thought things over differently then ever before. Thinking more about the consequences then the reward. And now, if he lived up to his promise, I wouldn't have to worry about it anymore. All I can do is hope things go as planned- nothing more..."

Sango peered around the four walls of her castle bedroom. Something every little girl and teenager would love to do. Being rich, having all that you want, servents doing everything for you...It was the perfect life. But, if you asked Sango, princess of Ushitora, she would have said it was a horrible life. Her parents were nice, a loving mother, brave father and innocent little brother who would soon be King. Her clothes- only the best. And her servents obeyed her every command. But...This wasn't the way she had wanted to live... Everyday she would stare out of her castle window, wishing she could play with the other village teens. But her father didn't allow it.

He thaught that it was unprincess-like for a girl to play in dirt and with poor villagers. But that's all Sango had ever wanted to do. She would tell Kohaku, her little brother, about her wishes and dreams, and he would listin. But it seemed the only soul that truely understod her was her best friend, Kirara.

Kirara was Sango's pet cat demon her parents had givin her when she was a little girl. And ever since, the two have been best friends. And even though the little kitten didn't speak english, it seemed like the two understod eachother perfectly.

One night, her, Kirara and Kohaku all layed on Sango's bed, reading a fantasy story before bed.

"...Then, the beautiful princess was swept off her feet by the brave knight and carriered back to his stunning white stallion. The knight stode bravely infront of the princess, staring into her goregous eyes. Slowly, the princess pulled off his helmet to releave a handsome young man. Placing her hand on his cheek, she leaned in and kissed his lips. And together, the beautiful princess and handsome knight lived happily ever after. The-End."

Sango read sleepily, letting out a soft yawn as she streched. Placing the book down shut on her night table, she then walked over to her window. Shutters wide open, she gazed outside into the night and sighed.

"Poor Kohaku... He's probably going to grow up and belive that story... Why can't my life be like that? I haven't done anything wrong to deserve this...Then again, neither did the girl in the story. Great, now I'm comparing my life to a stupid story, plus I'm talking to myself again!" Sango complained to herself. Placing her cheeck into her palm, she stared out into the forest, until something caught her eye.

Somewhere off in a distance, a firey torch could be seen inbetween the trees of the forest. Sango perked her head up, eyes wide, she watched to see what it was.

Deep in that same forest, a young man rode through on his black stallion. His tanned body was covered with black and silver studded armour, the edges lined with blue chrom, And his face was protected by a matching helmet. The man was well prepared, carring two large swords placed in a dragon scaled sheath. His bloodshot eyes focused up a head at the approaching castle. Cracking the reins hooked to the demonic horse, the animal galloped faster through the woods.

Finaly, the man stopped his horse and jumped off, touching the ground with his hand before standing up straight. He grabbed hold of the reins and walked the horse slowly beside him. Looking about, he noted certian places of the castle.

" Damnit, why do these stupid castles have to be so difficult to break into?"

Sango watched the man from her window dart about around the side of the castle. "What the heck is he doing?" She asked, sticking her head further out the window. All that could be seen was the flame from the torch and the gleaming red eyes of the demon horse. "Who on earth is he? Why is he hear?"

Sango quickly shutted her bedroom shutters and ran down into the hallway. Running into the parents room, she grabbed hold of her fathers shoulders and awoke him.

"Father, I saw someone from my window trying to break into the castle!" She announced, voice trembling. "Nonesence. Our gaurds can take out anyone! Beside, you probaly were just having a nightmare. Go back to bed, dear." He father remarked, rolling over onto his opposite side, back facing Sango.

Sighing to herself, she walked back into her room. "I know I was awake, I saw him! It couldn't have been a dream... I know it."

Author's notes:Yeah, it was boring. But the first chapters of stoires usauly are. And it's always boring when the first chapter is filled with discriptive sentences to explain everything... Hopefully I can jazz it up abit by chapter two or three. Just le'me know what you think so far. So, please review and read on. I'll up-date whenever possible.
