_ Origins: Asako Birth of a Legend _
Hello all um please don't hate me this is my first story. I really just wanna attempt the Origins of my characters Asako and Akiko. So ya if you guys want more after this one just tell me I plan on doing a little each time and when i use () in the past when Asako is telling the children a story of her past its meant as a kid asking her a question. So ya thats my little intro so hope you guys enjoys. If you see a problem in my grammar or have a idea of how i can make it run smoother please tell me in the comments i know it will probably suck.
Present_ day: _A young child around the age of twelve runs into a room full of other children, panting and laughing as he tries to speak. "Everyone shes here! Miss Asako is back!" The child runs out the room behind him a group of at least seven other children following him as they exit the school house and enter the streets of the village they are instantly covered in a wave of freshly falling snow it was falling fast, but at random intervals. The village is the dead of winter, almost Impossible to access the remote village during it. "Only a fool would attempt to reach the village during winter" thats what they said every time but she did it every winter before winter started at the end of fall. She would take her wagon down the mountain then once winter started she would return, this time though she was a little late, but still it was fine.
A wagon stops in front of the village inn as people walk out into the streets to see the wagon with small smiles across their faces as the children cheer. A lone woman in an adventures outfit, and a large bear skin coat, but there on her side the small pieces of light slithering through the clouds, that light was catching it the handle of her legendary blade Akiko, this woman was the master swordsman Asako Pureblood. She can be seen getting off of the wagon as the children swarm around her laughing, and giggling tugging on her shirt and coat calling out her name as she begins to laugh with the children. "Miss Asako! Miss Asako!" The children call out as she begins to pull a large bag from the wagon and handing it to the oldest a small wolf child named Matthew. "Matthew make sure everyone gets one toy and if there are any left over try to get them to share and play together and tell your mother to come get the flowers whenever she can."
He smiles up at her nodding his face flushed with a red blush as the smaller children giggle. "Y-yes ma'am Miss Asako." The children run off as she laughs taking several bags out of the back of the wagon slowly carrying them inside as men walk out the tavern, and nod going to the back of the wagon as they begin to unload it. She walks into the Inn smiling as there's a small crowd gather inside obviously waiting for her as they cheer all at once the same exact words escaping all of their lips. "Happy birthday to the warrior of the mountain, and saviour of our village Asako the Warrior!!~" She blushes at the crowd as they say it, slowly a low rumbling purr can be heard from her. "Wow you remembered... Wow I can't believe it thank you all so much..." She sits down the bags and the other men bring in the chests of goods, and valuables from the wagon as they sit them down on a table opening them up and unloading the chests. The chests were full of goods such as food, candles, and other things for the winter months when its almost impossible to get to the village.
The villagers smile, and hug her groups at a time as she blushes the villagers smiling and talking to her. "Thank you so much Miss Asako you take care of us so much every winter you bring us the supplies we need, we honestly don't know how to repay you." She smiles, and laughs giggling. "No its fine you let me stay here in my old family home you helped me rebuild it, its the least I can do." She smiles and sits down in a comfy chair by the fire, and giggles watching them look at the things she brought them and smiled knowing this was her life saving these people helping them. The children burst into the Inn in a quiet, and odd fashion as they sat around the chair Asako was in as she looked down at them all Matthew sitting the closest to her as she smiled. "Thats right isn't it, I owe you a story don't I?" The children cheer as they smile and giggle nodding as Matthew leans in blushing more as he nod having a massive crush on Asako.
She giggles and pets his head a light blush on her face as they all giggled, and laughed the other adults sitting down nearby to listen as well as she looked around. "So lets start from the beginning of my training into the way of the Warrior I was ten I had spent my entire life so far learning about girly things such as parties, balls, and galas it was terrible, I hated it my father now that my mother however didn't care. One day I walked into my father's study I caught him slicing a man's throat the man was an assassin a terrible one at that from that moment on father never lied to me about the family business again...."
Past Asako age 10:
"Asako dear, tomorrow you start your training in swordsmanship I hope you're prepared dear." Her heart jumped beating from her normal rate to well over a hundred as she cried out in glee blushing lightly and smiling big up at her father. "What! Really! Thank you, thank you, thank you father!" she blushed madly jumping with joy as she heard those words echo over, and over again in her head after they had left her father's mouth. She ran out the room skipping happily down the hallway as she passed her mother, and oldest sister giggling lightly, but inside she was exploding with glee trying to hold it in as she was screaming on the inside thinking to herself "FINALLY! FINALLY! I can be just like father and do fun stuff instead of all this girl shite I can be like a knight or ranger OH! A ranger! Yes a ranger ooh~ so tall, and slender, but built just like Sir Bastion~.."
she stopped at the front doors of the estate as she looked out at the stables, and then she began to blush furiously in that moment. She cursed under her breath "Speak of the Devil and he shall appear." Standing there was a man in the finest leather armor with pieces, and strands of metal mixed in standing at a even six foot was a man with shoulder length hair that was the color of a recently bloomed rose. He also had the most beautiful sky blue eyes almost as if someone held a mirror to the heavens and captured the color that was created and put that color in a set of eyes as I gift to the world. The only remotely off thing about him was a small scar over his brow and probably more scars under his armor, but that she did not know. She was head over heels madly in love with him like any girl of her age would be on a older male or female, but he wasn't much older only nineteen. Sir Bastion was the kind of man that when looked upon a young woman like Asako he could make them quiver their knees buckle, and a grin oh a grin from him to her would send her over the edge.
She blushes more her face turning from a pale white to a bright pink, and then to a dark crimson shade of red due all to him as he approached her chuckling as he gently placed his hand on her head. "Awe look at the beautiful princess Asako looking so cute, and sweet as usual he grinned dropping then scooping her up in his arms as she began to explode even more inside screaming out over and over in her head. "SIR BASTION!~" She blushed more looking redder than an apple as he put her down as he looked at her and then bowed slightly kissing her forehead. "Um are you going to be okay Asako?" He stared at her as she stared back her mouth agape from the kiss to her forehead. "Of course Sir!" She then disappeared in a small cloud of dust as she ran, she ran as fast as she could back to her room finally reaching the door slamming it shut locking it behind her. She threw herself onto the bed burying her face into a pillow she screamed unleashing a window cracking soul piercing scream as she began to purr loudly, and eventually look up from the pillow. "Wow Sir Bastion~ wow~" She smiled rolling over as she stared at the ceiling purring extremely loud giggling slightly to herself as she hugged a pillow as tall as her.
She fell asleep like this waking up the next morning with a series or knocks as she got up yawning and then opened her door she was a mess she expected it to be someone of her family, but it wasn't. "Sir Bastion!" She blushed furiously as she gasped hiding in her hands. "You're not ready yet..." He sighed playfully as he gently stroked her cheek several times. "Cute though.." she blushed more watching him as she slowly leaned into the strokes he was giving her she began to purr loudly for him as he laughed "Okay so get ready and we will begin your training Asako dear..." She nodded as she slowly shut the door blushing and watching him and like that it clicked in his head he blushes madly as he walked backwards several steps and coughed lightly. "O shite that can't be she no! No what am i thinking Asako is just affectionate to everyone..." He sighs and walks to the training area at the estate as he prepared some simple sets of gear up a sword and shield a longsword a bow, and arrow, and a set of daggers.
Moments later Asako appeared wearing leather armor but she had cut her hair she had hair that flowed to her elbows but now it rested just at the top of her neck but she had cut it perfectly as she blushed and for some reason miniature explosions were going off in both their heads as Asako looked at all the sets and picked up the single longsword and held it with both hands it was made of wood a toy really but a perfect starting weapon. He watched her as he took up a guard and she did several practice swings with her small frame he knew she would be fast, but not that fast. She cried out and was gone, and then there right in front of him like nothing as she began to deliver blow after blow of raw power as he parried her strikes blocking, and countering, but she picked up on his technique fast. She was able to do this due to the fact she watched her father, and Bastion practice for hours at a time sometimes longer than that she learned how they fought and how to perform difficult moves like they could now she just had to do it.
He swung bring it down right on top of her but she was gone he stares and tries to think of wear she will strike but its too late he can feel the pain in his ribs were she hit him with the wooden longsword, and he goes down on his knee. "Shite you win, you win Asako I surrender to you." he pants and she stands there in awe at what she had just done. "Did I really do that!" He looks up at her nodding as he panted more. "Ya, ya you did Asako..." Asako's training went on for four years learning and mastering the longsword and slowly building her relationship with her sensei Sir Bastion.
