What's a sin? How do you know if something's a sin? Is a sin when you do something that you think will go against God? Or is a sin when you know it goes against God? Hmm...

You want to know what I think a sin is? Well I think a sin is an obstacle to which proves that if you would go through anything just to get it. You would go through the pain, the betray

Doubt is more of a sin then not doubting.

I should know all these things because I wanted to something I knew I couldn't have, such as Inuyasha's love. I wanted to be his one and only and I went through every pain god has thrown at me.

Betrayal...
Pain...
Sadness...
Rage...
Jealousy...
Loneliness...
Hatred...
Regret...

I went through all of that and still stood beside Inuyasha no matter what the price and then one day I gave up and turned all those obstacles I went through into something more powerful, Pay back.

...Hm? What did he do? Well I'll give the short version on what he did, e literally ripped my heart out from my own chest, spat in my face telling me how pathetic I was and how I would never become as powerful as Kikyo. Then left back to the village with my heart laying right in front of my face still beating. I watched it as it slowly beated until it finally stopped, now I'm not going to tell you how I'm still alive right now, that is for you to find out while reading my little story.

Ha-ha, well now I must go, I hope you'll enjoy my story, farewell.

Chapter 1

"Please forgive us, we didn't mean to go against God's will" a villager pleaded desperately. He was on his knees covered in dirt and grime and so forth while staring up a dark figure before him.

He tried to back away, but his back hit the rough bark of a tree "please, we didn't know she was an innocent, we were only follow orders" he said now panicking when he saw the silver light coming off the from the blade the dark figure was holding. He could see clearly the blood that was dripping off of the tip of the blade, the from the villagers that weren't so lucky to escape this person's wrath.

The mysterious person lifted up their sword letting the flames of the burning village reflect its light upon it. "Nothing is easier than self-deceit. For what each man wishes, that he also believes to be true."

Before the human eye could see the man was on the ground headless with his head rolling down a small hill. The person watched their head stop at the edge of the riverbank then turned around and walked within the burning village disappearing within the sea of flames.

The next morning the shard hunters found the village totally burned down to the ground. Some village people were found laying on the ground burned some they found nothing but a spot full of ash.

"Oh my god, what happened here?" asked a woman. The group looked around the burnt village, some huts were still smoking from the fire.

The woman looked to be twenty-one years old, long black hair that reached her mid back and was tired at the end, dark brown eyes, and she wore a white and green kimono, also she had a giant bone boomerang strapped to her back.

A man bent down and gently touched the ground trying to get any sense out of it "hmm, it wasn't a demon that's for sure, and it wasn't bandits either since I don't' see any horse tracks anywhere" the man looked around the area. "Then who could have done all of this, one person couldn't have done all of this" said the woman.

The man sighed "well I don't know what to say Sango, I don't sense any demonic aura that was left behind or see any horse tracks, plus if it was bandits wouldn't some of the village's most prized possession be gone instead of being burned down."

"Hm, that is true" Sango mumbled then looked around then noticed one grave stone just halfway out of the village "Miroku look" Sango pointed to the grave stone. The man, now known as Miroku, looked at where she was pointing to "huh, that's strange why is there one grave, instead of many more?"

They walked over to the grave and read what was engraved on it "The Grave of the Sacrifice that the this Village has Killed." Miroku frowned a bit when he saw the arrow embeddend on the side he reached out and touched it, he gasped and his eyes went wide.

The arrow glowed a soft pink color then to black color then to a dark bluish color. Images of what happened to the girl flashed in Miroku's head he could feel the little girl's pain, her fear, her sadness. It was heart wrenching, when it was all over Miroku fell to his knees gasping for air "Miroku are you okay?" asked a worried Sango, she kneeled down beside him and put her hand on his shoulders.

Miroku looked to be twenty-four years old, short black hair that was tied in a small rat tail ponytail, dark purple eyes, and wore a black and purple robe, and held around a gold staff with six rings on it.

Miroku stared at the ground where the grave was with wide eyes, he could feel it, the pure dark aura the emitted from this spot, it feels so incredible that it made his heart feel like it was being torn out of his chest.

"Whoever buried this person here had immense dark power, also it would seem this person was the purpose of the destruction of this village" said Miroku. Sango gave him a confused look "what would one person do to make another cause all of this" Miroku looked up at her "the person buried here was a young girl and very innocent, this village used her as a sacrifice for their own selfish gain."

"But I don't see why the whole village had to suffer, why not the people who did the damage?" Asked Kikyo. She and Inuyasha walked up from behind them Sango and Miroku looked at them "found any survivors?" "No, everyone here was either burned to ask or cut up" Inuyasha said.

Miroku looked at Kikyo "before I let go of the arrow I heard a voice saying 'if one suffers, all shall suffer as well'."

Up on a cliff a woman was watching the Shard Hunters gather up the dead villagers and started to dig graves for them. Her long silky sheen raven black flowed behind her making it look like a black waters she saw the monk stop working then look around as if sensing something "hn" the woman turned around then walked away from the cliff.
