She walked gracfully through the trees to her nearing destination. A lake of flowing water that sparked with the knowledge of time yet to come and time of the past.

Her glistening brown hair was pulled back in a high ponytail with two strands framing her very angular face of high elegant cheek bones and big innocent crystal blue eyes. She approached the clear and beautiful water with a small breeze of wind pushing her hair from her back and into the air were it flew freely, as if it had a live of it's on.

A sigh excaped her pink plump lips as she sat beside the soothing waters for a sip to drink and thought of upcoming events that approached way too quickly in her opppinon. She took in the beauty of the scenary around her to then looked at her own plain reflection in the water. She thought herself way to plain but infact she was very beautiful with her shoulder length brown silky ponytail and knowledgeable innocent blue eyes. Her skin tanned slightly by the sun with a perfectly porportioned body to the height of 5'3.

She found herself lost in thought as she lingered on all her inperfections but not much longer she was jerked roughly from her thoughts as a slender feminine hand shook her, and a womenly voice sounded behind her slender form saying," Masami! Masami, come on Masami we have to meet your mother infront of the market in town! God, Masami she told us not to be late. We still need to pick dresses out for this evenings ball! What were you think come all the way out here?

Masami turned her head to look into the eyes of her bestfriend since childhood, Michiko, her name truly described her.( beautiful wise child) She was wise beyond her years because of the many hardships she had faced as a child, and she had a beauty that was so elegant and feminine, it was really all her own.

I had all way's looked up to her because she was so strong, wise, and beautiful, I really admire her for it. I smiled up at her and in greeting called out," Hi Michiko, Im sorry, I guess I just lost track of time. It's just so beautiful and peaceful here. You kow?"

A sigh excaped her lips again as she looked over the vast area before her to see the millions of trees that sorrounded the glistening lake before her feet. An exasperated sigh excaped Michiko as she looked at her day dreaming friend once more. she shook her head with a smirk on her face at her friends antics to then sit beside her and look upon the serene scene that sat before her. She knew her friend didn't usually daze off like this, so it ment that something was bothering her.

Michiko reached over to pick a flower that sat absently beside her to then turned and see her friend masami looking at her as well. She continued in a soothing motherly voice," Masami, what is troubling you?"She saw the sparkle that lit her eyes after asking that and then heard the angelic voice of her friend," Only you would know when I'm troubled, Michiko." she paused to take a breathe and continued on,"I'm worried that I will never find love. I am 18 summers old already and haven't found a man yet." Masami continued on in a more destressed voice,"What if, What if I never find one. What if i become old and die and never have children to continue on my family line, i will have disgraced my family.

My father has presented many men of our small village to me ,but,none have ever been what i've been looking for." She fretfully rung her hands with glising eyes as her worries showed greatly on her lovely face. Michiko laughed whole heartedly then and turned to see her friend looking at her with a glint of sorrow in her blue briliant eyes.

She pulled the flower she held in her hand up to her nose and continued their discussion," Masami, that is nothing to worry about. You will find love soon. you are now maturing into a lady and as such will see many more men looking your way. Be patient my freind and good things will come. This is the reasoning behind why balls are held every other week. All you have to do is be yourself.

Now hurry before we're late. we have to get a move on if we are to find the perfect gowns for tonight! Masami smiled a carefree smile as her worries were wiped away by her already engaged friend. She turned around and quickly stood with as much grace as a swan to run down the path her friend just took into the sorrounding forest. With her village in sight she laughed a joyful laugh that would make even the coldest of people crack a smile. BUt as she was running she did not notice the figure that stood just slightly in her path.

With a ummf she fell to the floor toppling on top of the unfortunate being that was in her way. She quickly jolted up and said how sorry she was to have run into them like that, but was stop by a hand on her shoulder. She turned her dazzeling eyes upon him to see he had bright green eyes with specks of gold scattered through out his eyes.

He was absoulutly gorgous with his ebony black locks pulled back into a very small low pony tail and rare eyes gazing at her with concern. His body was built to perfection,not to big and not to scrawny, he wore a pleasent enough outfit of a cotton sturdy shirt of green that did not even compare with his eyes and a pair of black pants that bunched at the knees with a lace of gold to trim the outside of them. ( think really old english like in the 1500 or 1600 ) He wore long stockings like all men but instead of white he wore gold with black shoes polished to a point with shiny gold buckles on the front.

Her face burned with a furry. She had never experienced this before this felling of utter dread at being caught in such a position with such a handsome man. She was about to turn and leave when she heard the sound of a deep baritoned voice laughing joyously.

Masami turned startled eyes upon the handsome person to see him laughing whole heartedly at something but being as courious as she was she turned and asked," Why are you laughing?" At her innocent question he calmed from his much needed laugh and said to her," Because this is the first time I have a meet a women who has run into me with out knowing who i was." He looked her over once more before continuing," And a very beautiful women if i must say so myself."

Her face once more burned furiously at the complement he had thrown her way but quickly changed as she noticed the sun getting lower in the sky. Under her breath she heved a sigh and said," I'm late again it seems".

Masami turned to the Very handsome stranger and said," I am very sorry for my accident but I must be on my way." she continued quickly," My apoligise." and hurriedly took off down the dirt road with swan like grace in every move she made. But, before she could even get a foot away from him he grabed her petite arm in his calused and strong hand to ask quite suddenly," What is your name beautiful women?"Startled by his questioned she paused for a moment to turn and tell him," Masami." And then went on her way without a second thought.
