When she woke up, Victoria changed clothes and started out the door. She saw that Konno was still asleep and decided it would be best to leave it that way. She made her way to her weapons master and bowed to the old man. "Good morning, sir." She waited for his acknowledgement, then stood straight. "Good morning, Victoria. Beautiful day, isn't it?" Victoria looked up at the sky. It was, in fact, a very pretty day. "Today, I would like you to meditate." He began. Victoria cut him off. "Sir... I know you probably have heard of the princess being captured." Her master stopped and listened. "Well, I was one of the chosen ones to be sent to retrieve her." She swallowed hard. "I would like to humbly ask of your permission to borrow weapons for my journey." She bowed again. His laughter surprised her. "Child..." She stood straight again. "Please help yourself." He stepped aside and motioned for her to enter his home. "And please be safe in your travels." Victoria smiled wide and ran up to the old man. She gave him a big hug, then scurried into the home. She picked up two swords, a few knives, and her favorite weapon of all, the long bow. After stocking up on some arrows and a few other things, Victoria- hands full- left the site. "Thank you so much, sir. I won't disappoint you." She bowed to him one last time, then fluttered away back to her own house. Hopefully Konno would be awake.
