I do not own Inuyasha only the OC's and their storylines


In a small village within the northern most section demon territories a village of vixens lived, their blood kept pure by sheer isolation. The inhabitants made of mostly females in the lower areas of the village; the male's taken to the headman's house from their first steps. Being that they alone could hold the bloodline pure the men, raised to select their mates from the village, their woman to bare and care for the children. And those un-chosen to work the fields hunt and guard the walls. The males royalty from birth and shall hold no such lowly position. This is where the heroine of this tale was born, a young fox of snow white hair and porcelain skin. The girl only twelve winters old held the position of gate watch, she was blessed with strong demonic powers over the arctic elements, and she was to be a warrior if not selected as a breeder.

"Yumaru you will be late for training if you do not waken soon" called the young fox demons mother. A light sigh passed the girls lips as she opened one of her red eyes the sun hitting them made her growl lightly as she sat up her fingers interlocking on her hand as she stretch with a light yawn her long white fox ears twitching lightly.

"I'm awake mother" she huffed out as got up her white sleeping robes hugging her slender form as she approached her dark pale blue kimono laid across the dresser topped with a mirror of ice a small smile crossed her face as she looked at her reflection her red eyes scanned the demonic markings that adorned her face the lines from under her chin to her cheek which curled into a small spiral under her eyes and the two swirls from her hairline interlocking on her forehead. She smiled lightly as she dipped her finger in flesh colored paste and covered her blue markings each in turn effectively hiding her markings. Happy with this she slipped her robes on and fastened them tightly. To her form the end of the kimono sleeves attaching to her index finger holding them to her arms.

"Yumaru are you finished!" The stern voice of her mother came, her patience with her running a little thin. "hai,hai" yumaru called back walking though the thatched door way to face her mother in the main room of the house.

"Don't get an attitude you must learn to be a proper lady or you will die at the gate" she said approaching her youngest daughter she nearing the age of selection, pretty and strong her mother had no doubts she would be selected as one to carry on the pure bloodline.

"Mother, I would prefer to die at the gates then to have to cater to those worthless men!" She muttered angrily to before she could react her mother had sent her to the floor with a slap her cheek reddened as she put her hand to hold her injured cheek as she looked up at her mother.

"You will show respect to the males of the village, they are rarely born you would be honored to be selected to even serve in the castle do you understand yumaru"

"yes, mother" the young girl said quietly as she got to her feet "I'll be leaving now" she said in a grumble walking out of the door she headed to the gate a smile retaking her face as she approached it was the best part of her day was standing at the gate being able to see the outside world if only just the edge of it, most of her village hated being so close to the outside but she loved it. She took her position standing at attention at the gate a sword of ice formed in her hands which she planted in the ground and held the handle lightly.

"Child, We will have guests coming through today, A powerful demon, you are to let him pass without any question" Came a masculine voice from behind her. Yumaru's eyes rolled.

"Yes sir" she said her eyes still locked in the distance

"Good" he said with a smile she stood still and remained that way for three hours like a good gate guard. When a demon appeared a handsome raven haired demon with piercing red eyes, and a dashing dark blue kimono, it was a rare sight in this village of pastel kimono's and light colored hair her stood out and though he wasn't in the village yet people were already staring. Snapping herself out of her gaze on the handsome demon she smiled lightly

"Welcome, We have been expecting your visit Sir, Please follow me" she said with a smile bowing to the demon lightly as her sword vanished into snow turning lightly to lead him out passing another demon by the gate she smile "Please see to the front guard I will return shortly" she said quietly to her as she passed the handsome raven haired demon behind her. Though he shortly joined her walking in step her feet making barely a sound, she could feel his dark aura him now walking very near her. It was unnerving but she was ordered not to ask any questions, she was going to stay silent. Though his scent seemed to be present elsewhere near as well. Was it possible for him to be in two places?

"Girl, your pace has slowed" the males voice came his voice smooth but almost menacing.

"I apologize, Sir We get guest rarely I am unaccustomed to escorting" She said with a light smile trying to push her questions to the back of her mind with that they finished their journey silently. Once they reached the door to the main house she smiled lightly

"I can take you no further" she said lightly as two female warriors approached armor of ice adorning their bodies' cloth only covering their intimates. Yumaru highly uncomfortable being here she quickly stepped back and bowed ready to leave, she was not supposed to be even this close without permission or direct invitation.

"I wish you to stay" the man said almost a smirk on his impassive face as she looked up at him, he seemed to be toying with her.

"As you wish" she said lightly trying to keep her composure questions and fears dancing through her mind, did her notice that she sensed the second presents or his dark aura. Did he not want her to be able to warn anyone near the wall? Or was she over thinking and he had no motives for making her stay.

The headmaster settled her internal debates as he saw her by the man and glared lightly

"Child, leave " The man said Yumaru bowed lightly happy to have been dismissed only to have a hand touch her shoulder soft but stern halting her movements.

"Very well, but I would like her to wait, as my guide after our business is concluded" He said his hand forcing her out of her bowed position and into a standing one. Facing her leader she instantly averted her gaze a slight wince as a claw sunk into her skin a bead of blood staining her light color kimono. She could feel a glare from the headmaster "very well she will wait here for your return" the headmaster said stiffly turning away

'he's going to get me killed' she thought though she felt his hand leave her shoulder as he followed the headman into the building unsure of what she should do now she stood there as she was. And waited after a few minutes one of the female guards instructed her to sit down and wait. She sat down on her legs her hands lightly folded together in her lap. Twin tails tucking around her legs lightly.

After a few minutes a loud sound came from the gate and screaming soon fallowed, the smell of blood Yumaru tried to rise but stumbled lightly as more yelling came from within the keep the smell of poison leaked from the main house. The sound of bodies dropping, blood, and death it was terrifying she knew she had to defend her home she tried to force her body to move but it refused to move again collapsed in the grass she was unable to help. A light chuckle came from above her it was the man she had led through her home. It suddenly made since he had noticed and had poisoned her to keep her from checking and now her home was being destroyed because of her. She looked at him as her body started to feel weightless she was floating looking down at her now destroyed village a woman was attacking people with a fan but with Naraku leaving the woman jumped up on a feather and followed suite as darkness overtook Yumaru's sight.
