Runaway

[tempest]

[C H A R A C T E R. S T A T I S T I C S]

Monatoko is what I am called by.
My age is currently 18

[/s] and I'm very unhappy[/s] at the moment.
A female[/s] is what I am as well as a runaway princess[/s], you could say.
But I'm being forcefully married[/s] to someone who hurt[/s] me in the past. He'll ruin[/s] my home...
Currently, I have one daughter named Aiko[/s].[/center]

Hazel eyes watched everything and her sweet face was lit up with awe. Never had she seen such a wonderful looking place! Of course, Monatoka had been very beautiful. But, this was a whole new village. She would be allowed to explore freely and without worry. Ever since she ran away, Monatoko had felt a sense of freedom. Not that she didn't have freedom in Monatoka, but Raji had always insisted on following her. A soft smile spread across her face as she thought of the werewolf Raji. He was her main protector, but sometimes he got annoying. So, Monatoko had usually left Aiko to play with him while she explored. Aiko...Monatoko gave a worried look. Was her lovely daughter ok? Raji and Mr. Thomas would take very good care of her, she knew. But...Grithse...

Don't think about it... Monatoko quietly said to herself within her mind. Just don't think about it...
Looking back at the village, she began to walk through it. It seemed so relaxing and calm...Monatoko wore a blue kimono right now. The shoes were the sandals that people wore with kimonos, most of the time. Under where it was tied, her stomach area, flowers were sprinkled on it. The patter went from her hips down to the end of the kimono, it ended at her ankles. Her hands remained in front of her, holding each other softly. Her hair hung only an inch from touching the ground, and the sun shinned on it. Her features were enhanced by how the shadowing on her was placed. It made her look lovely, not that she cared much. She wanted to look unnoticeable, really. The less noticed she was, the less of a chance of being taken back.

"Ms. Monotoka!" a voice called. "Where are you? You must come back! The wedding has been schedualed." His ears perked as he looked around. Felix had been going back to the ITS when this voice spoke up. He began to look around, then found the girl. He stood in her way. "Why do you run from your wedding?" he asked softly.

[tempest]

Monatoko froze as the voice hit her ears. What a curse to hear! A look of fear and worry spreading across her face, her mind began to panic. No, she had to look normal. If she looked normal, who was to know the voice called out to her? Monatoko calmed herself and continued walking quickly through the village. But it wasn't too long before she was stopped. A guy stepped in front of her, causing her to jump a bit. Monatoko stopped right in her tracks, keeping a calm face. He asked why she ran, and she wished she could tell. But, how did he know it was her? Did he know her...?
"I-I don't know what you're talking about, sir. I'm not running from a wedding."
She tilted her head, "I'm not getting married at all. Whoever was called for isn't me."
The alternative was telling him what was really going on. For now, she would deny it as best she could. How did he know? There was no possible way! Out of all females, why was she centered on? A frown spread across her face, maybe she could distract him from the question?
"What might your name be, sir? What brings you to this lovely village? Oh...I guess I should introduce myself first, though, shouldn't I?"
Monatoko gave a small bow of apology, "sorry..."

"Someone yelled about a wedding... I assumed you were the one they were yelling about," Felix said. He then frowned. "It's fine... But they're closing in. You should go on."

[tempest]

He had ignored her two questions, and it made her frown. That wedding...she'd never go back to it! Maybe she should tell him? Monatoko hated to lie, it was a horrible thing to do. Monatoko gave a sigh and nodded slowly. Yes, they were getting closer. They would certainly recognize her, and she knew it. Her hazel eyes gazed at Felix, and then she gently took his hand.
"Please...will you walk with me? I would enjoy some company, sir."
Monatoko gave a soft smile and hoped he would agree to walk with her. Monatoko had no one to talk to, really. It was truthful that she would very much enjoy his company, even if she didn't know him. She looked down at her hand and then let go, frowning at herself.
"Sorry...where I am from, I am used to taking someone's hand."
That was stupid of her; she hoped he didn't mind that. But it was true, Monatoko was used to taking one's hand and they not minding much. It was still idiotic of her to assume that it was ok elsewhere. She inwardly scolded herself and reminded herself not to do it again. Her eyes shifted around, looking for the people who were searching for her. She had to get out of here, fast.

"It's fine. Let's just go," Felix said.

[tempest]

With a nod the woman began to walk at a normal pace. She led him away from the people who were searching for her. Of course, she didn't let anyone know they were searching for her. Monatoko was joyful that she had someone to talk to now.
"So...what's your name, sir?" Monatoko asked quietly, hoping he would answer this time. "And what brings you around here?"
She looked over her shoulder and frowned, Monatoko knew she didn't want to lie. So, she finally decided to let it all go.
"My name...is..." she bit her lip, "Monatoko..."
She fell quiet for a moment, but then spoke up again. Her voice was quiet, so only the two could hear.
"The reason why I run...is because it's a forced marriage. It's forced to someone who really hurt me a year ago. If I marry him...everything will go to hell..."
She frowned and looked down at the ground, "I am sorry I lied earlier.I am afraid of being caught..."
Even though I miss everyone...I just can't go back...
Monatoko looked back up at Felix and watched him. What was he thinking, eh? How she wished she could read thoughts...

"I could not read your mind, but I could tell by your eyes... You were afraid. I am Felix Falora... I am trying to get back to the ITS... I'm trying to help a friend... She's hurt just like you are, only worse... She's being chased by the person who hurt her, not people who want her to return to the one who hurt her like you... She's being treated like a little whore... And she ran away, afraid of me... She doesn't even consider me a friend, just someone she helped because I fought to protect her from that person... Someone who..." Felix shook his head. "It does no good to dwell on the past."
