It was morning. Kikyo woke up.
It wasn't any ordinary day, it was the day she travels to meet King Yamato, only for them to be married.
As she opened the door the servant politely greeted,"good morning princess Kikyo, you slept well.
Kikyo replied,"I can't believe today's actually the day I go on a journey to meet King Yamato in person".
The servant said,"I can believe it either. Sigh*, it's like only yesterday you were the king's little sunshine".
Kikyo replied,c'mon I think that was a bit farther than you think".
Servant replied,"It feels like you need more time to be happy before you get married".
Kikyo replied,"it feels like enough time to me".
They went downstairs to the center of the kingdom where everyone awaits for the princess to set sail on her journey.
She wondered if the boy would see her set off. She opened the doors.
Kikyo was shocked. The boy from last night was a bodyguard.
She knew he sure acted like one. Kikyo chose Itachi to be her bodyguard in her journey.
"You," she said,"you shall be my bodyguard".
The servant and Itachi were both shocked.
Itachi was afraid she wouldn't pick him, but his actions from last night proved to her he was worthy to be the one. Kikyo decided. Kikyo pointed her finger toward Itachi saying,"you," Itachi hears her and looks up to her,"I choose you to be my bodyguard". Kikyo gave him a hand.
Kikyo introduced herself, she smiled,"nice to meet you, my name is Kikyo".
Itachi introduced himself,"Itachi, Itachi Shinigami ".
They both faced the king.
The king was impressed,"That boy's a swordsman, the rarest class of the far lands. I'm very impressed from his training technique, he's a natural".
Kikyo was surprised he knew a lot about him while she doesn't know a thing.
The king questioned,"now Itachi, will you protect my only daughter from danger"?
He bowed down to the king and replied,"I'll protect Kikyo with all my strength and all my life, I'll die if it means Kikyo could live".
King replied,"I knew I liked you from the start Itachi. I trust you as if you were my son, you may leave with my blessings".
Itachi smiled,"thank you".
The guardsmen opened the gates for Itachi and Kikyo. Everyone said goodbye to them.
Kozan, Itachi 's best friend shouted,"have a safe trip Itachi"!
Itachi and Kikyo wave back.
They soon left the kingdom. They were walking.
Suddenly Itachi paused, he felt a presence surrounding them. Kikyo found out Itachi stopped walking.
Kikyo questioned,"what's the matter Itachi"?
Itachi replies,"they're here".
Kikyo questioned,"who's here"?
Itachi answered,"the assassins".
They appeared from hiding. To Be Continued.
