~ Prologue ~

Motonari smiled as he placed the calligraphy brush to one side and admired his handiwork on the parchment in front of him, while a loyal officer looked over his shoulder.

"…Sir it is very well written" he said, his eyes still moving across the script absorbing more of the information.

Motonari frowned and sighed deeply, "And what do you think of it's contents?" he snapped, irritated with the poor man who jumped at the reply and quickly corrected himself.

"One of the best proposals I have seen with my own two eyes" he hurriedly spoke, while Motonari rolled up the parchment and handed it to him.

"If you wish to keep both your eyes I suggest to deliver this quickly and carefully to Lord Yoshistugu. It is of utmost importance and I would hate to have to punish you for it, peon"

Motonari spoke cruelly but kept his emotionless state complete on his face, even as he spoke, now walking over to the balcony and gazing out to the rising sun across the ocean.

The man's eyes were now wide and sweat was breaking out on his forehead,

"Right my Lord! I shall order an escort, to protect your message!" the man spoke bowing.

Motonari felt a vein popping in his forehead and he whirled round with his teeth clenched, "How many men does it take to send a message?" he growled, his piercing gaze locking with the terrified officers eyes.

"O-one Sir"

He stuttered as Motonari approached.

"That is correct. So why would you wish to draw more attention to yourself when you are carrying such an important item? It's almost as if you want yourself to get caught" he snapped,

"You will take this message. And will you go alone, to Yoshistugu and you will deliver it to him, from me. And if you're lucky and if you get back on time, I might just let you live. Am I clear?"

He breathed out, impossibly blank yet his face was full of rage…concealed within his eyes.

"Y-yes, my Lord!" the man said, bowing impossibly low that Motonari could've stepped on his head if he so wished.

"Then get out" he snapped, his eyes rolling away from the man who angered him as once again he turned and walked over to the balcony to admire the sunrise.

"I will not fail you Lord Motonari"

After the words were spoken, hurried footsteps could be heard along the floor, then the opening and closing of a sliding door followed. And then silence.

The brown haired man sighed then slowly drew in a deep breath in relaxation. His eyes were on a distant island in the water, which seemed to be like a dark blotch on the horizon.

Motonari could feel himself wanting to grin, yet only the smallest of smirks made it onto his face, almost unrecognisable unless you studied the mans emotions night and day. He put his hands behind his back and shut his eyes, allowing himself to soak up the early morning rays.

"I…have a plan…" he spoke,

"…it shall lead to eternal honour for the Mouri clan" he said softly…he didn't often speak with the sun. But he liked to, because it was only in these conversations he didn't become riled up and angry. The sun didn't like to argue with him or make pointless and downright illogical statements, it just liked to listen and reflect on what he had said, like a good officer should.

His brown eyes slowly peeled open and the pupils shrunk as they took in the light from the sun, shining in happiness at Motonari's new plan.

"…a storm is brewing in the shadows of the sun…" he said, once again talking to the giant star,

"…nothing shall stop me"

"Well if you think about it, that's completely illogical"

Motonari's eyes widened as he unsheathed a small dagger from his belt and whirled round at the sound of a girls voice, weapon poised defensively.

"Who's there?" he barked looking behind him, up at the roof and into the sparsely decorated room. He inched forward slowly, eyes darting this way and that, looking for the girl.

"Yoo hoo~~" the voice sang and Motonari flipped round again to see a young girl sat on the balcony banister. She waved, with a smile on her face.

"You see, the sun can't have a shadow since it's spherical in shape and is constantly producing it's own light in the form of heat energy. So to say that a star has a shadow is a very stupid comment" she explained much to Motonari's annoyance.

The girl on the banister had redd-ish brown hair in buns atop her head, with a metal hair ornament standing up behind her bangs. She wore a very revealing leotard type garment, the cloth wound round her neck and down in two strips over her chest, leaving a gap in the middle, revealing yet more flesh. She also wore a faded purple leather jacket, with the sleeves rolled up past her elbows, the pattern almost invisible but still there to remind people of what it used to be. She wore fingerless gloves, a faded green in colour with two studded spiked bracelets round each wrist. Worn thigh high socks in a faded creamy colour went down on her legs and into two loose knee high brown leather boots tied with black ribbons instead of laces.

Her red lipstick shone irritatingly in the sunlight, as did her little smirk as Motonari glared at her.

"State your business" he snapped, carefully eyeing the sheaths for two large wave swords at the girls sides and taking up a defensive stance, judging how far he was to reaching his room and his ring blade.

"How rude! I bet you don't even know my name!" she said, mock pouting and jumping down from the railing.

"Should I?" Motonari countered, backing up a little, to which the girl paused to think.

"I suppose not…at least…" an eerie grin spread across her face, "at least not yet" she purred excitedly at the thought of something.

Motonari frowned, puzzled over this girls reaction and now her identity.

"Tell me why you're here before I cut you to pieces" he spoke, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

The girl glared back a little and put a hand to her chin, thinking "Hmmm…it's difficult to recall with a blade pointed at my throat…" she said folding her arms defiantly.

Motonari glanced between her and the blade before carefully re-sheathing it onto his belt, deciding if she tried anything, he would be ready for it.

"You are a ninja" Motonari stated although it sounded more of a question.

The girl tilted her head, "Not exactly…although I could be yours for the right price!" she said winking and rubbing her fingers together as an indication for her obsession with money.

Motonari was becoming irritated again, he didn't like people who avoided his questions and refused to talk relevant information.

"Why did you come?" he asked, his rising anger present in his voice now.

"So I guess that's a no?" she said disappointed, "Ah well, in that case there is nothing left for me to do than give you this"

She reached into a pocket in the front of the jacket and pulled out a scroll of parchment, tied with a black ribbon, holding it out in the flat of her hand to Motonari. Who after hesitating for a split second carefully took it from her hand.

"I'm not sure who gave it to me exactly, but they told me it was urgent and I had to get this to Motonari Mouri right away!" she explained herself for once. Motonari frowned and looked into the girls eyes for any suspicions that she were not telling the truth, however her eyes were unmoving.

"Hmph!" Motonari said pulling the ribbon of with one swift movement and unrolling the parchment, his eyes carefully scanning over the completely blank page.

"Is this some kind of joke?" he said blankly letting the parchment drop and roll across the floor in the mild wind.

The girl looked puzzled, "Huh? The little guy looked like he was going to cry when he handed me this letter, didn't seem like the joking type…" she said slowly and as the paper rolled towards her she bent down to check for herself. Opening the parchment and tilting it every way as if words would magically appear if she held it upside down.

"…this is ridiculous" she said staring into nowhere before a frown graced her features and she clenched her teeth.

"I scaled two castle walls and the keep to deliver this!" she snapped, shaking the paper angrily, "And they think it's okay not to eve—"

Upon lowering the paper she noticed Motonari was walking away, she started to run after him. "Hey wai—"

"I have better things to do!" Motonari snapped whirling round, the girl stopping right before she crashed into him.

"Looks like…" she said sarcastically, Motonari resisted the urge to roll his eyes.

"Stop wasting my time and be gone" he said flicking his arm to one side as a gesture.

The girl pouted "That letter wasn't my fault he—"

"Then he has wasted both of our time!" Motonari stated bluntly turning and walking for the exit once more,

"Now get lost I have no need for you or your services, I suggest someone as useless as yourself should board ships with the pirates and never return" he mumbled making it out of the screen door leaving the girl stood there open mouthed and confused at Motonari's rudeness.

Frowning and clenching her fists she walked back over to the balcony Motonari had previously being stood next to and leaned against it, after a brief pause her eyes flicked up and caught sight of the sun. She sighed and looked out across the ocean,

"What a vile young man" she muttered putting her head in her heads and observing the horizon,

"I don't know how you can stand him" she said talking to the sun who still didn't reply, the girl grinned to herself and glanced at the silent sun, "You're both as bad as each other…so very rude not to reply you know!" she sighed contentedly and stretched her arms, her eyes spotting a blob on the horizon.

"Still…I wonder if what he said about the pirates were true…" a smile twitched on her face, "I've always wanted to meet a pirate…"

And as if finally reacting to the girls words the sun shot rays right through the clouds as they split, shining light onto the blob on the horizon. Squinting she leaned forward on the railing almost losing her balance, before her eyes went wide with recognition.

"PIRATES!" she shouted delighted jumping back of the rail and clapping her hands, with a new simple plan in mind she turned round to run out of the room. Only when she was reaching for the screen door did she stop in her tracks at the sound of voices on the other side. The sound of Motonari's officers.

Rye stomped her feet "Should've known that prissy sun-boy wouldn't have let me out easily", with that four foot soldiers burst into the room.

"STOP RIGHT THERE" the men yelled stopping once they were in the centre of the room and looking round confused.

"…she's not"

"Here" another man finished for his friend as they looked to one another before silently agreeing to search the room.

Meanwhile on the lower floors the girl was tearing down the staircase and jumped out through a relatively low window, causing guards to jump and with slight hesitation jump into a fighting stance.

"ENEMY SCOUT" they yelled as she passed, getting up from their posts and dashing after her.

The girl grinned and looked behind her at the guards, "Catch me if you ca~an!" she sang, giggling with laughter, before turning her head round and knotting her eyebrows together in determination heading to her new destination of the port.

Motonari observed the mass of green chasing after the single girl scout through the gardens with annoyance, "Useless…" he muttered, carefully observing the girl. Thinking about her whereabouts and her purpose.

After a few moments of careful thinking he decided he didn't care, she wasn't a threat to him as far as he was concerned right now. All she had done was bring him a pointless blank sheet of paper and a wave of confusion that he really hadn't needed. His brown hazel eyes flicked up to look at the port where she was heading, he convinced himself he didn't care that she was leaving and that a spy as annoying as herself would have aggravated him more than prove her use to him…yet a small part of him was screaming; "You idiot, you had chance to recruit the only scout capable of gaining entrance to your own keep and private quarters and you turned it down!". Motonari pushed these thoughts to the back of his mind along with his memories of the girl, deciding it was too late to worry about things now and just go on pretending it never happened.

Before he turned away to prepare for battle his eyes caught on something on the horizon, he ground his teeth in anger.

"Useless" he snapped turning and marching off, "The whole lot of them!"

The screen door slammed shut and Motonari lost sight and track of the girl as he did not wish to watch that painfully familiar ship slowly dragging itself across the horizon.

The sun watched on overhead, smiling with glee…sensing a new story about to unfold.

That's how it goes! Hope you like my OC and where this is heading ;D
For those who I promised MotoMoto, don't worry there's plenty of time for all that jazz :3
