Dragon Princess

Little Town In The Woods

Kana P.O.V
Kana sat beside her older brother. Watching him paint. It was after lessons and both children were tired.
"I'm sleepy," Kana said as she continued to watch him work.
"Well, why don't you go to bed, Little Princess," he answered looking down at her.
"Okay," She said sitting up.
"I'm gonna keep on working," her brother said turning back to her, "You go on ahead,"
"Alright!" Kana replied happily as she skipped off. After walking for a bit she heard a noise. She looked around. "Hello!" She called out. "Is anyone there!" She looked around once more.
"I don't bite, well, at least right now,"
"She's a pretty little thing isn't she," a male voice whispered.
"She'd fetch mountain of coin even if she wasn't a dragon spawn or the princess,"
"Shhhh, or she'll hear you,"
Kana simply sighed. Those men had to be the dumbest bandits ever.
"You know I can hear you," She called out to them as she drew her sword and grabbed her dragon stone.
"I told you!" one of the men shouted.
The bandits crept out of the bushes. What they lacked in brains they more then made up for in number and strength. She decided to use her dragon stone for such large numbers but before she could reach it she was grabbed from behind. She struggled but was knocked over the head with a club. She was in nothing but blackness then one image flashed in her mind. A young girl in a red hood. She woke up with a gasp. She looked around. She was alone in the back of a carriage. She looked down, she was in chains. She smirked smugly. She pulled her hands apart and shattered the chain links. Even though the war was over she never stopped training. She was the crown princess, sure her brother was older and more experienced but he passed the responsibility down to her because he could never rule an entire kingdom. Well, at least that's what he told her. Kana thought it was just because he didn't want the work. But for whatever reason it was she needed to be prepared for anything, even being abducted. She got to her feet quietly and calmly. Then she giggled.
"How stupid could they truly be to leave me unguarded." She crossed the back of the carriage. They were going rather fast but no faster then she was used to. She slammed her foot against the window in the back. Luckily it came clean off. Due to her small size she was able to slide through the space with ease. As she stood out on the back she could hear bits of the conversation happening between the drivers.
"She'll go for a solid ¥15000000."
"Nah, forgot to remember she's a dragon, I think she'll go for ¥7500000000000."
They were debating the price she would go for on the market. She turned her attention back to the ground in front of her. In a few minutes it would be the perfect time to jump. She crouched down and got ready. Then she rolled down onto the road and leaped into the grass. She waited for a minute. Silence filled the night air. She had to be in the darker part of the kingdom. She straightened up and brushed her long blue hair out of her eyes. She could see the lights of a distant town and the lantern on the slavers carriage as it made it's way to the village. Her vision panned up as she stared into the night sky. From the constellations she could assume she was around three hundred miles northeast from the main city. She thought back to the maps she had studied earlier during lessons. At around her position a small town filled with thieves and slavers. It had given her father a lot of trouble through the years. And her mother was trying to help all the young girls that had been victimized by slavers and several of them had mentioned this town as where they were sold. Kana sighed lost in thought. It was gonna be a long ride home.
