Inuyasha Fan Fiction
An eight year-old boy looked up from the bark of a tree. Seeing nothing, he looked down, followed a set of tracks.
"I found you Sango! Hahaha," He exclaimed. "How did you ever find me Kaori? I thought I was well hidden," Sango said. "Well, your tracks gave you away. You should be stealthier than that," he laughed.
Sango and Kaori had known each other since they were born and they were getting to the age when they started to like one another. Their families were really tight and often had dinner together. Kaori's mom and Sango's mom had both had baby boys about a year and a half ago.
That night, Sango had dinner at Kaori's house. They had just stood up from dinner and gone outside when a sea of flames erupted from a house nearby and the ground started to tremble and sway.
"Fire! Demons!" cried one of the villagers. Soon, everything was on fire, the ground was ready to split, and people were running in every direction. As Sango and Kaori were split up, Kaori handed something to Sango.
"It is half of a demon bone. If we don't see each other again, think of me when you see it. It is powerful but I don't know what it does." Kaori ran back to his house where he saw the sight of his dead mother and his baby brother screeching in her cold arms. Kaori picked him up and hurried out of the house as the hand of a large demon destroyed it. With his brother in his arms, he rushed into the surrounding forest.
He couldn't see much because of the choking smoke from the fire. After running for a few minutes, the world spun and he passed out.
Kaori woke with a start the next day. He was in pain, suddenly aware of a bandaged gash on his mid-back. He was so worried about his brother that he forgot his pain, retrieved his clothes, and went outside. Kaori was in a small town that he did not recognize. He stared at the strange place for a second and was starting toward a house when a hand on his shoulder made him jump.
"You woke up. And do not worry, your brother is fine," said the voice. Kaori turned around to see a bulky man carrying his brother, Eric. "I am Branoic and this town is 'the Sacred Wood'. You are welcome here and you and your brother will be fine.
7 Years Later………The sticks in the fire were fizzling from being damp. It was hard to find dry wood because of last night's thunderstorm.
"Master Kaori, tell me more of Sango," Aros said. "I mean, you're kind of dark when it comes to that. Plus it's hard to help you find her if I don't know much about her. And-" Kaori cut him off with a hand raised for silence.
Kaori bit his lip and started. "Well, seven years ago, Sango and I were split up by a demon attack in our village. While we were being split up, I handed her half of a demon bone that I had found. Now, the bone wants to heal and I have the other half of the bone. My half pulls toward the other half. I have not seen her since that day and I fear that, um, I am sort of," he lowered his voice to a whisper, "in love with her."
"Now I see," Aros said. "He-he, now I can tease you about it Master Kaori!"
"If you even think about it, I'll leave you in the middle of a hoard of hungry demons…" Kaori replied showing a little bit of sarcasm.
At that, Aros cringed and replied, "sorry, sorry. I will erase those thoughts from my mind."
Kaori then told Aros that he would be right back, and went to fetch firewood.
Inuyasha sniffed the air. "Hmm. I smell demon. Let's go check it out."
When they got to Kaori's camp Aros stared at them wide-eyed.
"Where's the demon?" Inuyasha demanded.
