Summary: Princess Kagome has gotten many marriage proposals, but has turned all of them down. Her parents are very frustrated with her, and decide to pick for her...

==========================================================================

.:Marriage by Force:.

Kagome stared out her window thinking of the most recent proposal she had received. About the lecture she had gotten from her "loving and concerned" parents after she turned it down. She sighed. Being the Princess of Kai, she was supposed to marry a prince from a far off land, so she could then take up the post as queen.

'My parents just don't understand. I can't just say I'll marry some guy after spending one day with him.'

She heard a knock on the door. "Who is it?" she asked.

"It's me, Sango!"

Kagome's face lit up. She loved talking to her best friend, even if she was her maid. Importance of position didn't matter to Kagome. Many of the servants in the castle would whisper to each other whenever she talked or showed kindness to commoners. She knew what they said, but she couldn't care less. Kagome loved helping people, and nobody could change that.

"His majesty wishes to speak with you," she said with a gloomy look on her face.

Kagome's smile turned into a frown. "Very well. Father has probably found another snobbish suitor for me."

Sango tried to smile, although any eye could see it was fake. "Don't worry. You'll find 'that special someone' one day."

"But father always picks men who have no love in their ways of ruling. If I am to marry a tyrant, I will live a life of misery."

Kagome's father was the king over the country called Kai. He was not a very patient man, and wanted his daughter to marry, accept the crown as queen, and have a child. He didn't care what the man was like, as long as he was the son of a rich and powerful king from a far off land. Kagome wondered what this one would be like.

Sango led her down to the throne room where the king and queen sat.

Kagome looked around expecting to see a young and handsome prince, but saw no one.

"Kagome dear, come sit," said her mother gently.

Her father took her hand and said, "My lovely daughter, why do you turn down all of the proposals given to you? You do realize that this is at least the eighth proposal."

Kagome had lost count around five, but was not surprised at the high number. She remembered some of them very clearly. One was very rude and had slapped her when she had spoken to Sango. Another was very sloppy and had no manners what so ever at the meal table. When she saw him eat, she could have compared it to a pig eating slop. The princess shuddered just thinking about it and shook the thought away quickly.

The king spoke again. "My dear daughter, you have not chosen a husband and you are already 15! It is getting late, dear."

"I know father," Kagome said soothingly. "I will find the right one next time."

"My daughter, there will not be a next time." Her father got a sad expression on his face. Kagome became very confused and cocked her head to the side.

"Father, I'm not sure I follow-" but she was cut off by her mother.

"Kagome. You have become a fine young lady. If you cannot choose a husband for yourself, we have no choice but to...choose on for you." Kagome's mother began to cry.

Kagome was shocked. She couldn't speak. Then, she got up the courage and asked, "And may I ask who my husband is to be?"

Her father looked at her with sad eyes. "Prince Inuyasha."
