8 Assassination

As I continue fighting my Father, even whilst I sleep through the night. I suddenly hear a massive shout.

[KID! Wake up immediately, there's a presence in your room.]

"Got it!" I Say with slight fear in my voice. I knew this might happen ever since I chose to become the Emperors daughter. One thought stayed apparent in my mind as I woke myself up. *Assassin*

I woke up to see a shadowy figure leap down from the ceiling, I block with my pillow. I hid a metal dinner plate just incase inside of it. My paranoia was to the max and now it paid off.

"Heh. You really tried to kill me huh? Well I guess you need to be taught a lesson." I get up from my bed as the assassin continues to slice at me as I dodged whilst talking. It was almost in slow motion compared to my Father… It was a novice.

"Heh. It's a beautiful night outside. Lights are twinkling. Stars are skipping. On nights like these morons like you, should be having an eternal rest." My eyes light up in the dark room the glow lit a menacing grin.

I Immediately turn their soul blue and suspended them mid air. They are extremely shocked but fade into the nearby shadows.

"Heh a shadow quirk huh? I guess I didn't see the light on that one." As I said that, I could hear an annoyed grunt coming from the other side of my room. I send all my attacks towards that location, unleashing a wave of bones rupturing from the ground. Tripping the Assassin as they tried to leave and as they fell, accidentally piecing the Assassin in the chest.

"Huh… I guess that joke killed them"

[Kid…]

*It was funnier in my head.*

"So before you die, let me extract some information."

<Quirk: Dragons Authority>

"Who sent you?" My voice boomed shaking the surroundings as if it was an earthquake. Well, it's the only downside to this part of my quirk. The voice of a Dragon make anyone feel immense fear, it helps with extracting any and all information.

"It… It was an anonymous request…" He said in a fearful tone.

"That's a shame. I guess you have no other purpose."

[Do what you have to.]

Sans and I both know the pain of taking a life over and over again. It was nothing new to us, especially to those who wish to end our happily ever after.

I send 5 different bones stabbing through each and every part of his body, giving him a quick death. As I finish him off. My doors slam open… It was Father, apparently he already knew what was happening due to the usage of my quirk. That being said, I USED my quirk, the combining process with my Magic may have halted somewhat.

"I see… We shall speak of this in the morning, we will have someone clean this up."

"Yes, Father."

"Please inform us what had happened." Father asked with a serious tone. I suppose he doesn't want to let something like this happen again.

"I woke up to find an intruder lunging down at me, I blocked with my pillow as I hid a metal plate inside of it."

"... Why did you hide a metal plate inside your pillow?"

"?! I didn't expect you to ask that. Perhaps it was because of my previous poisoning, I had grown a fear of Assassins." I say with a forced smile. It wasn't entirely a lie but nowhere near the true either.

"Honey..." My mother chimes in with an extremely guilty and worried look on her face.

"It wasn't your fault mother. Please do not blame your self." I said, trying to reassure her.

"After that, I managed to get a distance and stand up. I discovered their quirk was something to hide himself with shadows to make him almost invisible. Because of this I sent attacks all around my room, eventually landing a stray hit on the assassin, stabbing him through. At this point I used my Quirk to try and extract information, to discover it was an anonymous request. After discovering he had no more use, I finished him off."

"I see." My Father says. I look up to both of my parent's to see conflicting feelings on their faces. After some talking we finally change subject as I continue to eat my breakfast.

...

"Mother, Father. I have complied with all these ridiculous lessons. I do not mind if you wish to send me to school, hell I don't mnd if you send me to Elementary school. But I want to choose which Junior school I want to go to, and it has to be my choice" I said in a confident tone. I wanted to interact with those who will be going to U.A before they actually have to go. Maybe it won't be as boring then. Maybe I should even mess with the timeline of the story by telling All Might, All for one is still alive. I have no idea.

"Mind your manners young lady." Mother says in a half hearted tone.

After putting down my cutlery, I speak up in a confident tone. "You both know that I possess to intelligence far greater of that of a 5 year old. Soon I will be turning 6 and will be forced to lower myself to the standards of others of my age. I merely wish that I can at least choose which hell I stay in."

"…" There was an echo of silence in the room as both of my parents look at each other, almost deliberating what to do with their eyes.

"Fine. However, you have to attend Soumei private elementary. For any other school, I do not mind."

"Dear!" My mother shouts out loud with a shocked expression on her face.

"This is the first time our daughter has made a request of her own. We should respect her decision."

"I would also like for you to arrange me some martial artists so that I can defend myself. If another assassin tries to attack me within my sleep, I doubt that I will survive next time." I said trying to persuade them. A huge weakness in my abilities is my close combat... I may know how to dodge and attack but that's only from a distance, in close combat I'm utterly useless.

"Granted. We will look for the best martial artists for you."

After thinking for a moment, I say to both Father and Mother, "I would also like to go to town in order to purchase myself a phone."

"Fine, Fine. Sometimes I think I spoil you." Father says with a chipper tone. I feel like I could have asked a lot more...

"Great, I'll head to the shopping districts then, you can keep that noisy bird to watch over me if you want. I doubt I will attract too much attention. I am not bringing a guard, they are way too conspicuous." I say as I leave the room, not giving them a chance to answer.

After taking a shortcut, I finally head into the town. Going through the bridge draws too much attention to myself and was far too slow. Realizing I have a bank full of unspent money and from an old saying in my previous life, if you don't spend what's the point in having it? I look through all the stores one by one, searching for objects or items that draw my attention.

As I go down another street I seem to have entered the main shopping district in Tokyo, I put up my hood to avoid getting attention such as I said to my father and looked for stores that sold mobile phones. Then I had a realization… Who the hell is going to sell a phone to a 5 year old child?!

*Ugh this such a pain.*

[Heh you should live by my standard and learn to relax. You can also do that by filling the dozens of shopping bags hanging off of your arms and put them in your inventory]

*I guess I forgot about that and if needed I suppose I can just reveal my identity.*

As I say that I put on the 6 bags of shopping into my Inventory and head to one of the posher phone stores. Ugh apple or android, this is the real test… I mean on the one hand android doesn't just add one useless feature then rebrand the entire phone as a new innovative product entirely. But Android has far less features… I remember the game I used to play in my previous life, it was one of the best games I had played. 'Infinity Blade' I was so hyped for it when I used to play it on my IPod, but when I changed to android I couldn't find it on any stores and downloaded a pirated copy of it and ended destroying my phone through a virus…

*Sigh* I guess I'm more used to Android phones.

"Can I buy this?" I ask the shop clerc.

"Young lady where are your parents? I can't believe they would just let a beggar like you in here." As she made her comments I had gotten extremely annoyed. *Why does everyone think of me as a beggar*

I lower my hood and I point outside the window to one of the massive electronic billboards that has my face on it for some reason.

"…" It takes a second for it to click.

"Y-Your royal highness. I would be glad to serve you today." She says with an 180 flip of a personality. I guess my name really works, Heh.

I inside the glass case at all the phones, deciding on which one I want, to no avail "I want the latest android phone." I said clearly.

"Yes! Right away." She says as she rushed to the backroom.

"This is the Android **** this also has a gold plated case encrusted in diamonds." The clerc looks on with a smug expression as she sees mine of disbelief. In reality I was thinking, *Who the hell would sell that?!*

"… Are you really trying to make me buy that to get you a bigger bonus? Do you really think I am a naïve kid?! Do you want me to call your manager? Just sell me the damn phone and a Pikachu case." I say as I close my eyes in annoyance.

"Yes…" She says with a slight sigh of relief.

"Come on!!" An angry voice sounds out from the crowd.

I try to look towards it but I couldn't see anything. "But Mom..." A different voice sounded in response.

"NO but you need to learn not to do this!"

"…" A silence continued. Everyone stared at one location as I moved through the crowd.

"If you continue moping I will keep you locked downstairs again."

"I don't like the basement… It's cold. Why do I have to stay there Mommy?

"Don-" She said before her daughter spoke again.

"Mommy?"

"DONT CALL ME THAT YOU BRAT! I WOULD NEVER HAVE A DAUGHTER WITH SUCH A VILLANOUS QUIRK LIKE YOURS" She says as she slaps the child in public.

What the hell is happening? Why isn't anyone doing anything?! She clearly said she keeps her in a basement… What kind of mother does that? I push through the crowd to get closer to the kid. I finally see a glimpse of her. It was Himiko Toga.

Such filth doesn't deserve to have a daughter like her… Because of my knowledge from my previous life, I was curious in the different schools the characters had gone to, mostly out of boredom but from my investigations beforehand, it seems that their family has submitted an application to go to Soumei and in the end she is still treated like a villain because of her quirk. Hmmm. I need to think of a plan.

Days past, in my spare time, I completed my training, slowly ramping up the difficulty against my father. It becomes easier and easier every time as I am able to analyze and detect his patterns, his main weakness is that he is too conscious and aware of himself. It's as if all of his attacks are marked in his mind. Instead of attacking instinctively he follows a pattern. This makes it easy for him to be read. Other than this, I'm used to talking to my friend Momo who I told about Toga…

She was completely shocked and agreed to be of assistance if I needed it. I have a few ideas for the materials but R&D will take much longer, so I sent a request to many different support agencies under the name of the Royal family. Everything was confidential, so if they dare mention a single word to an outsider, I will destroy their company.

As for Toga I have been thinking of ways to introduce myself which doesn't come off as outlandish. But then again, why am I sticking to the rule book?

As the first day of school arrives, I look on my new phone to see livestreams of the schools entrance on Facebook. At first there were only one or two, I was curious about the need for a live stream. As I read the title it says "Waiting for the arrival of the Sapphire Princess* As I looked at the title I noticed the 2 or 3 live streams turned into 2 dozen.

How did they find out I'm going to Soumei? Ugh… Such a pain. I guess I'm going to just have to take a shortcut straight into the school.

"Your Royal Highness, I'm here to transport you to your school." The butler says in a respectful manner.

"No thanks, I can get there myself. Just call the teachers to verify my attention, driving will be too bothersome."

"Yes, your Royal highness."

After a Small shortcut, I appear inside the school itself. I step out of the Janitor closet and begin to look for my classroom, I keep my hood up high. Everyone else is glaring at me… Why?

"Excuse me? Where is your uniform, this is a prestigious academy. Are you some commoner who just waltzed in to have a look at the princess."

"Wha-"

"I know I know, it's tempting. It's said that the sickly princess has turned into the embodiment of a true queen. Everyone is looking forward to her graces visit."

"Bu-"

*Sigh* "I guess some commoner like you can't understand the elegance of the Sapphire princess. I heard she was named that after many had seen her shimmering crystal eyes, as if they stood out from the darkness. She's always encased in blue aura, hence leading to the name."

"Does this hoodie really make me look like a commoner?"

"Indeed, please leave this premi-"

"Well would a hoodie be able to do this." I say as i use my Bone creation to make a knife to cut my hoodie.

"What are yo-"

The hoodie slowly repairs and re-stitches itself

"My! That's remarkable I don't believe I have seen anything like that, you must give tha-" She suddenly halted in fear as I took off my hood.

"Please to meet your acquaintance, I am the Sapphire Princess, Sana Ryujin. Please treat me well." As I say that I notice that the girl, a few years older than me fainted on the floor and is foaming at the mouth.

"Wow I really didn't think my appearance would be a knock out." I say as I skipped right on to my classroom.
