Author's Notes: Hello all! This is my first IY ficcie, but I have written
GW, SM, and RuroKen, but only my SM and RuroKen are posted seeing as my GW
is REALLY old and I need to revise them A LOT! Some of my SM are really old
too and need revising, so I think you should just read my new stuff and say
that's horrible and then all my problems with be solved! Yay! Anywho, on
with the writing!

Chapter One:
"Have you ever considered the possibilty that I do not want to marry this half-demon?" the woman questioned, kneeling before the man and woman. The girl glanced up, her brown eyes burning with anger and inquiry at her position.
"Technically, Kikyo, we only used you to lure the man here," the woman replied, shrugging it off as if it were nothing.
"We were never planning on letting him marry you, my dear," the man answered, glancing behind the kneeling woman to a cloaked being who had just entered the room. "Do you actually think that we would lay our kingdom into the hands of a half-demon?"
"Then, what were you planning on, father?" Kikyo inquired, standing up straight, pushing her long hair over her shoulder. Her short skirted dress heaved slightly to the side as she leaned on one leg.
"We were planning on having your younger sister take care of him had not Amure finished him off," the woman answered, smiling softly as she nodded her head toward the woman behind Kikyo.
Kagome removed her hood and stepped forward to stand next to her older twin sister. They were identical except for the hair and skin color. Kagome had wild untamed hair that wasn't cut neatly like Kikyo's, pulled back like her sister's, or as long as her sister's. Kikyo's skin was pale and elegant looking while Kagome's was a nice tan color from spending many days out in the sun practicing her archery.
"You mean Kagome is going on the journey with the half-demon to kill Amure?" the older sister questioned, arching a brow at the stoic girl beside her.
"Of course. Why would you care anyway?" the woman asked, leaning on the arm of her throne as if bored.
"Because she is also a princess of the Realm of Athena.....because she is a part of this family....because I care about her well- being....because she is my sister! There are many obvious reasons such as these. How can you not see them?" Kikyo said, shaking her head in confusion as she glanced at her sister out of the corner of her eye. Her sister had not moved nor had her facial expression changed. Kagome was still staring straight ahead as if she had expected this.
"Kikyo, you should know by now that it does not matter if your sister dies or not.....she was the second born and is therefore demoted of her heritage. That is the way of the Realm of Athena. We cannot change custom to your liking. It is the way of the gods and not the way of man that thrives here," the man answered, an anger seething into his tone as he glared at his eldest daughter.
Kikyo huffed in anger as she turned to her sister fully this time. Kagome had still not shown any sign that she had been listening to the conversation and this angered Kikyo further. "Why do you not say something in your defense?!" she yelled, her anger releasing upon the wrong person.
"Kagome," the woman bellowed out, standing up off her throne.
"Yes, your majesty," Kagome said, stepping forward and bowing as if Kikyo had not existed.
"I wish for you to go and receive the guest that has just arrived. Please bring him here," the woman replied before sitting back down on her throne.
"Of course, your majesty," Kagome answered, standing and pulling her hood back on as she wandered out of the throne room leaving her sister flabbergasted in her wake.

'His dark powers are immense. He may just have the power to destroy Amure, but does he have the skill?' Kagome pondered, waiting for the drawbridge to finish lowering. She made sure that she was well hidden as she did look just like her sister and it was not well known outside of the kingdom that there was even a Princess Kagome. It prevented strange questions of Kagome's abilities as she did look nothing like a fighter.
She stepped out across the drawbridge as a loud whumping noise told all that it had finished lowering. Her boots made a quiet clopping noise as she moved gracefully across the plank of wood toward the annoyed looking half-demon who stood at the end with his arms crossed.
"Welcome to the Realm of Athena, Goddess of Wisdom," Kagome said, sweeping her cloak around her and bowing before the half-demon.
"Some welcome, feh!" the man replied, glaring at the being he believed to be a man. "I got thrown out as soon as I leaped into the castle after I announced who I was! It was absurd and rude! I nearly left, but I didn't travel all this way to be sent home without payment."
"I am terribly sorry for my kingdom's lack of hospitality, but I assure you-" Kagome began, still in the bowing position.
"I don't care about your damn hospitality! Show me to the royal chamber!" InuYasha interrupted, growling quietly in anger. He muttered, "And hurry up....I can't stand your damn smell."
"My humble apologies," she grumbled, glaring at him from beneath her hood. 'Who the hell does he think he is?! I have to keep my cool.....I'll get a chance to kill him later,' she thought, standing back up straight and heading back across the drawbridge, InuYasha in tow.
Kagome made sure to lead him directly to the throne room as she could hear him muttering about the ugly smell of humans and how he wanted out of here as soon as possible. She stole a couple of curious glances at him, interested in the way he looked, but received glares from those yellow demon eyes of his. She hadn't liked that much after catching a glimpse of his claws and was quite sure of the damage he could do with them.
She stopped in front of the throne room and turned abruptly around to face the half-demon, whose ears twitched in annoyance as he had to take a step back to avoid walking directly into the small female whom he believed to be a rather puny male. "What the hell did you stop for?!" he growled, seeming to become angered once more.
'Damn you!' she seethed, mentally, but schooled her somewhat hidden face into calm lines. "The Higurashi royal family is through these doors and I want to make sure you will behave with the utmost respect," she answered, her voice flat.
"Feh! I'll show you respect!" he replied, pushing up the sleeves to his red battle G.I. as he took a few steps toward the door. Kagome jumped in between him and the door, her arms outstretched, but he easily flung her aside and kicked the door open with one of his bare feet. "You expect me to show you damn people some respect?! Let me give you a lesson in what that means!"
"Who is this young man?" Kikyo questioned, apparently not noting the silver hair, yellow eyes, and rather prominent dog ears strategically placed upon the half-demon's head. InuYasha had marched right up to the thrones and stood before them, his claws on his hips in annoyance as he glared at the two royals. Kagome had chased after him and bowed before her parents. "I am sorry your highnesses, but I tried to stop him and explain how to show the proper respect!"
"If they had the damn respect to not threaten my damn honor then maybe....just maybe I'd show them some respect! A simple request would have been nice, but threatening my very way of life and children no less! That's not respect, that's false power!" InuYasha bellowed, staring angrily at the whole royal family as he talked to Kagome. He schooled his face into slightly annoyed lines and sighed. "Now that I've walked all the damn way here, what the hell do you damn people want?!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That's my very short first chapter, but I figured you could all wait until next chapter before you found out exactly who Amure is and why he needs to be killed. Also, if my characters seem OOC it's because they are. This is my first attempt at an IY ficcie and I'm not very good at writing to begin with so... yeah! Well, it's also kinda short because I just wanna know what people think. If it's awful... I'll be done with it!
Stay Tuned for Chapter Two: The Journey Begins... The whole reason for InuYasha's appearance is explained. Kagome and InuYasha start on their long journey together, but the question is will the two make it out alive or will they end up killing one another before even reaching their goal? What will InuYasha think when he discovers who Kagome is?
