• Chapter One: Princess?


    " I'm going to be late!"
    Miharu practically flew across the sidewalk. She tore across the pavement, huffing and stumbling. She flew over a crack in the sidewalk, and sprinted up hill. The roof of her middle school came into view, peeking over the top of the hill " There it is!" She beamed, and her green eyes shimmered with pleasure. " Maybe I won't be late after all!" With her long, black braids blowing behind her and her school bag in hand, she tripped rather clumsily over a small, white object lying on the sidewalk. "Kyaaaaaaaaaa ~" Miharu shrieked, and her shriek was joined by the cry of the little thing lying on the pavement. Poor little Miharu stumbled, and face-planted into a large mud puddle. Many seconds passed by. Slowly, Miharu lifted her head out of the muck, and rubbed her sore forehead. She lifted herself up, and got to her feet. Her school supplies were scattered about, and braids were soaked in mud. The perky ruffles of her new school uniform lay damp and drab against her body. Miharu sniffled, and tears sprung to her eyes. " So much for my perfect morning at school." Miharu turned to look why she had tripped, and gasped. Sitting on the pavement was a strange, but extremely cute young boy who Mihar guessed was about three years old. He wore a cloak of white silk, and around his neck hung a small, glowing plate engraved with a tiny cloud. Upon his head, he wore a shining silver tiara. He was wiping crystal-clear tears from his sky-blue eyes, and his blonde hair blew unruly and long in the wind. More strange than all of this, though, was the two white cat ears poking up through the blonde locks at the top of his head.

    "So kawaiiii ~"
    Miharu breathed deep, and forgot her troubles. She felt a strange sense of nostalgia. Just looking at the boy, she knew that they had some connection. At that moment, the young boy looked up in shock. He mutteredsomething under his breath, and proceded to stand up and dust himself off. He wiped away his tears and beamed up at Miharu. " Princess ." he whispered.
