Alright people, this is my first inuyasha fic. Soooo, -sweat drop- pul-eez don't kill me if it stinks, okay? I mean sure, I've watched like a million animes but I never wrote one. So, here's my first try, here goes nothing! Oh, by the way, you can vote 4 the pairing!^_^. Okay, so this is a little different, since one of the main characters is a special character that I made up. Don't worry, there will be plenty of info on her^^, the pairings are at the bottom. Review please!!!! Thnx 4 reading!
It was an unusually calm day in the fuedel era. There were no demons around for miles, no annoying travelers nope, just the inu gang sitting and relaxing. For you see, just two days ago, they went through the final battle with naraku. Yes, they won, but at a price. A special price, kagome's life. She gave her life to kill naraku and she succeded. Now, all her friends are left there, without her, to grieve. They were all banged up terribly. Even shippo had a deep gash along his forehead. They had acheived the jewel shard, and it was full and glistned in the sun. Inuyasha no longer wanted to become a full demon. All he wanted was kagome. He didn't love her, she was his best friend, she always stuck by him even when everyone else was against him. He missed her,....almost as much as he missed his mom.
Shippo had actually lost his adopted mother(A/N:Kagome) and he was extremly upset. Could he not have a mother, was it against the lord's wishes to have a mother? Well, it sure seemed like it. Shippo held kagome's red scarf in his hands, never wanting to let go.
Songo and miroku both felt the same. It was as they had lost a sister. She was so kind and loving. Always playful and loud. It was never a dull moment when she was around, especially when she got on inuyashas' last nerve. Tears formed in songo's eyes but she kept them from falling down her sheek. Miroku saw this and put his arm around her in a comforting matter. She smiled lightly, and closed her eyes. She opened them in surprise when she heard sniffling. She looked to her down left to see shippo crying.
"shippo,...please don't cry" asked songo softly.
He glared at her "HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ME NOT TO CRY WHEN KAGOME'S DEAD!!!"
Songo looked down.
"calm down fox" said inuyasha.
Shippo sat down"who's gonna be my mom..." he mumbled softly.
"who cares" said inuyasha, carefree.
"Inuyasha! That's terrible to say!!!....wait,...who will be the new keeper of the shikon no tama" said miroku.
"...i don't know" said inuyasha. He took out the jewel and stared at it "now,...who's gonna be your new master?" As soon as he said this it started glowing, and a womans voice came from nowhere.
"you are inuyasha, songo, miroku, and shippo...are you not?" said the voice.
Inuyasha gulped"yeah"
"I am here to help you find the new keeper of the shikon no tama, dear ones. I shall summon her here, and she will come as soon as she can. I have already chosen the perfect demon." said the voice.
"demon?"questioned miroku.
"shouldn't she be a priestess?" asked songo.
"This one demon is extremly powerful, she has learned the poweres and techniques of a wise miko, in her young life. I believe she is the age of you inuyasha. Mabye a bit older, not by far though....there is a problem"
"what's the problem?" asked shippo.
"I cannot contact her dear one, I must ask you to find her, please."
"of course" agreed miroku.
"Thank you, When you do find her, I ask you to traval with her. Last time I encountered her, she travled alone. I asked her if she wanted company, she said she wouldn't mind. The reason I ask you to traval with her, is because I believe that she can benifit some of you, if not all of you. She is in the direction of west, take your time to find her. Thank you young ones, and good-bye for now."
"well, that was something" murmered inuyasha, while he put the jewel away.
"we leave in the morning" said miroku. Everyone agreed and went to make dinner.
**********************hundreds of miles away********************************
In a dark forest was a little girl in an orange kimono trotting along side a large dragon and a little elf. In the lead was none other than The lord of the western lands, lord seshomaru.
"lord sheshomaru?" asked the little girl.
"...hn?"
"um, don't you think it's a wonderful day, I mean the sky is so blue and the air is so warm, don't you think so jaken?"
"rin! stop pestering the lord with your foolish questions about nonesense! Humans, must they all talk nonesense!?" yelled jaken.
Rin looked down in emmberesment, she hated when jaken put her down like that.
"....the day seems,...adiquite, rin" answered lord sheshomaru.
Rins head bounced up"I agree lord sheshomaru!" she said happily.
Seshomaru suddenly stopped, as did his dragon(A/N:OMG I FORGOT THE DRAGONS NAME!!! can someone please tell me the name in a review? please? I think it's a-un? not sure-sweat drops- he he he) soon followed by jaken and rin. In front of them was a bush and it was rustling loudly, then softly, then a loud growl was heard, frightning rin.
"lord...sesshomaru?" asked rin, then she got lightly bonked on the head by jaken.
"shush human" he growled.
"-gulp- ow"
She then turned her attention to the bush. Then out came a wolf, rin was relieved until she saw it's blood red eyes and it seemed like poison was seeping through it's claws and teeth. Sesshomaru raised his sword when he noticed it approaching, mostly to rin. He was about to kill the worthless wolf when he heard a shout.
"WAIT!!!!"
sesshomaru looked to his right to see a demoness running towards the wolf. Apon seeing the woman, the wolf transformed into a lusciouse white wolf with blue piercing eyes, It looked like a pretty happy wolf to rin.
"what do you think your doing to my wolf you baka!!!!" she yelled right in sesshomaru's face. 'how dare she yell at this sesshomaru's face, who does she think she is! The lord of the east! I think not!!! even though I've never met the other lords...'
Sesshomaru growled loud and deep but she didn't back down, not even a flinch! "Who do you think you are wench!" he shouted. Rin shuddered, she hated when he yelled.
" I know who I am, I wanna know who YOU are stupid!" she countered.
He grabbed her throat" My name is sesshomaru taisho , lord of the western lands, NOONE yells at this sesshomaru!"
She removed his hand and dropped it. "My name is ookami-kijo kyouda, and NOONE, I MEAN, NOONE STANDS IN MY WAY AND CALLS ME WENCH!!! GOT THAT SESSHY NO BAKA!!!"
sesshomaru raised an eyebrow in amusement. "You amuse me greatly, ookami-kijo. What is your porpse with that wolf?" he asked.
Ookami-kijo went over to her wolf and started petting it "He's my pet along with his sister and other brother."
Sesshomaru nodded, and finaly got a better look at her. She had light blue fluffy hair. It looked like silk, yet so soft, it was held in a high pony-tail. She had on armor and pelts on her shoulder almost like that wolf demon that his half-brother hates. Exept hers was a darker blue.(A/N: Imagine exactly what kouga wears, but where it is brown, hers is dark it was made for a woman. Also under the armer was a dark blue pelt with really soft fur, kind of like a short sleeved under shirt. And yes, she does have a tail. A very, very, VERY soft and flufft tail.) She also had a long silky wolf´s tail. She had pointed wolfs´ears atop of her head, and 2 dark blue stripes along her cheeks. She also had stunning light velvet purple eyes.
Ookami-kijo stood up facing him. "You may call me ookami if you wish and I do apologize for my yelling earlier." She lightly bowed and she started To walk in a random direction.
She started walking, until sesshomaru stopped her and put a claw to her throught, poison lightly dripping from his claw. She scowled "WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!"
Sesshomaru smirked "you did not show me proper respect, address me in a respectful manner, or you die."
"no"
"very well then" he said as he lightly slit her throat, causing poison to seep into her blood, then she caughed up blood and fell to her knees caughing.
rin was horrified, the wolf growled immensly and it's eyes glowed red but stopped when ookami´s hand raised to silense it. She caughed ounce more, stood up and continued to walk, still caughing. Her wolf followed warily. Sesshomarus eyes were slightly wide, noone has been able to stand and walk after he poisoned them.
He shook it off and walked in a similar direction to ookami, and jaken, ah-un, and rin followed silently.
'how odd, she walked away from lord sesshomaru, after being poisoned, she must be stronger than appears' thought rin.
'how dare that WENCH! Bothering my lord like that!!!I should burn her to ashes!!!" thought jaken.
'odd, she seems strong, and she's a demon, and she is very beautiful... mabye this sesshomaru was not clear enough when I said 'the respect I deserve'. Why does this sesshomaru care anyway. ...It seems that I do care.... hmmm, I shall get to know this little vixen, and see if she is worthy of my company' thought sesshomaru.
********************with ookami************************
"Darn,...I can't feel my throut..." mumbled ookami as she ran through the forest. "Stupid sesshomaru, I don't care if he's the lord of the west. He's nothing to me."
She had to stop and catch her breath, which was shortened due to the poison." -pant pant- I -pant- can't -pant- breath-pant pant-" were her last words before she blacked out.
Ookami woke up on a soft bed of some sort with a wet cloth over her head.
"Hey koga, she's awake!" yelled a man's voice.
"shut up, she's gonna get scared with you yelling like a maniac" said another man's voice.
"hey guys I'm back, and I actually caught something when I went hunting!" yelled a third's man's voice.
"where am I?" mumbled ookami lightly. She sat up and looked around. She was in a cave and she was on a fluffy demon pelt. To her left was a man who was holding a deer, to her right was another man who was talking to a third man. When she squinted her eyes she was slightly surprised. They were all wolf demon youkai. They were all dressed simalar, so they must be in the same pack. One had a wight mowhawk, another had black and white hair, and the third had black hair just below his neck.
The wolf demon noticed she was awake and looked at her and smiled. " You're even prettier when your awake. Good morning" he greeted.
"Hi, I'm hakkaku, and this is ginta. Good morning" he said brightly.
" good morning,...but,...would you mind telling me where I am?" she asked politly.
"of course" said koga as he took a seat next to he on the pelt.
"koga, me and hakkaku are going to make dinner for the four of us, see ya"
Koga waved them off "alright miss, would you honor me by telling me your name for starters?"
"oh! Of course, forgive me! My name is ookami-kijo kyouga, but please, call me ookami." she said blushing at her rudeness.
Koga smiled "wow, you have a very beautiful name"
Ookami blushed slightly.
"'okay then, how we found you,...hrmm,. OH YEAH, Almost forgot. Well actually, I was off with Ginta and Hakkaku were off hunting, when we came across sesshomaru's were about to turn around, since sesshomaru is extremly powerful(ookami rolls her eyes) until I smelled something with him. It was your scent, so I followed it, no matter how stupid that decision was, When I came across you leaning across a tree and there was a huge white wolf on your lap keeping you warm, since you were knocked out. So I grabbed you and brought you here. You've been here for, umm,...about three days. I'm glad to see your awake, I was wondering what your eyes looked like, Their more beautuful than I could imagine"
ookami blushed yet again "thank you for your hospitality koga, but I think I should go" she said as she tried to get up. As she was getting up she felt a strong stab in her throught and she fell into koga's arms. "sorry" she said as she fell onto the pelt. Koga nodded "I guess you'll be spending a little bit more time with us ookami"
Ookami nodded "sorry, and thank you for letting me stay here" Koga nodded(AGAIN!)
"Umm koga? Where is my wolf?"
Koga shrugged "It left shortly after we brought you here"
"ok"
As if on signal, Ookami's wolf came padding into the cave wagging his tail. Ookami smiled. Her wolf was followed by two other wolves. One was bigger than her first one, and the other was smaller than the first one.
Koga raised an eyebrow "who are the other two?"
Ookami smiled "Well, these are all my wolves. The one you already know is called kappa. The largest wolf that is brown and white patches, with the yellow eyes is named urufu. The third wolf, the smallest one that is silver with yellow eyes is named tenma."
Koga nodded.
"You seem to do a lot of that"
Koga chuckled.
"Hey koga dinners ready, we knew the other wolves were coming so we made plenty" called hakkaku.
"Okay" answered koga.
"come on, let's eat" said koga as he helped Ookami to her feet and led her to a the cooked food.
Ookami stayed with koga, Hakkaku, and ginta for about a week until the poison was completly healed and out of her system. She had became close to ginta and hakkaku as brothers. Ookami sensed that koga had an attraction to her, so she tried not to lead him on. Yet he was VERY persistant. Now a week later, it was time for her to leave, she missed exploring the lands and meeting new villegers, she missed the fresh air and all the new demons. She even missed slaughtering all the demons that opposed her. She missed it all. Koga understood that and agreed to let her go,...for now.
"Well, bye you guys" she said as she hugged both Ginta and Hakkaku. "you guys were really funny, and I know that we will cross paths in the near future."
They both nodded, trying to hold back tears, they were really going to miss her.
She turned to koga and gave him a hug as well, which he really didn't want to let go of her. When she let go, he didn't. "Umm,... koga?"
"sorry" he apologized as he let her go. She laughed lightly. She made her way to the exit followed by her wolves, but turned around "I'm really going to miss all of you, and thank you so much for taking me in when I needed help. I know we will meet again soon. If we don't I'll come visit you three. Please stay safe, goodbye" she said with a bright smile and she and her wolved trotted off, but she came back quickly.
"koga? There are two humans, a kitsune, and a hanyou coming up the mountain(she looks back and trotts into the cave) and they're outside the entrance.
Koga looked confused, but then he looked irritated. "It must be the mut-face and his friends. Hakkaku and ginta shrugged and left, leaving ookami and koga waiting for the inu gang to come into the cave. "where are they?" he asked.
Ookami took a step forward but stopped when she saw a hanyou with silver hair, yellow amber eyes, and a red kamono came in. He was followed by a small kitsune, then a monk, and a woman with a black catsuit and pink armor. "what do you want?" asked koga.
"-sigh- koga, I need your help....who's that girl your with...she smells nice." said inuyasha staring at ookami. Koga walked in front of ookami "none of your concern mut-face!!!! Why do you need my help?"
Inuyasha growled "You have to help me find this demon to protect the jewel shard. Come on I'll explain."
About half an hour later, inuyasha explained everything to Koga and ookami. He explained what the jewel shard said to them and how they need to find this new priestess demon to care for the shikon no tama.
"That's stupid, demons can't use miko power's mutt"
"That's not true! i've trained to become a miko, I have the power's of an average miko,...if not stronger" said ookami.
"You never told me that!" said koga.
"You never asked" mumbled ookami. She then felt somrthing tugging at her pelt skirt. She looked down to see shippo. "hello" "hi, your really pretty my names shippo, what's yours?" he asked eagerly. Inuyasha twitched his ears, he too wanted to know her name. "-giggle- your so cute! My name is Ookami-kijo kyouga. But you can call me ookami. ok?"
"OKAY!" he said cutely.
"Are you part of koga's clan or something? Are you his mate or something?" asked inuyasha.
"Um,...no actually a demon named sesshomaru poisoned me and koga and his friends found me and cared for me." explained Ookami.
"Oh, cool"
"You smell like my mommy" said shippo.
"You don't have a female scent on you, hun...oh,....is..she..-"
"Dead? yes, but we've all decided to leave the past behind us and start anew. We leave her spirit behind, so she can pass into the next world" said miroku.
Everyone nodded.
"well, that's good...wait, you said that your looking for someone to take in the jewel right? Well, I think that's me. I mean, I don't know any other miko powered demons." said Ookami.
"yes, I soppose so,..just to be sure, mabye we can summon the soul of the shard to ask her the name."
"okay" said everyone.
Miroku took out the shard and called apon it.
"Yes child, what do you need?"
"I'd like to know the name of the demon that is sopposed to take the shikon no tama." answered miroku.
"Oh silly me, I should have told you that. Her name is Ookami-kijo kyouga. Is that all?"
"Yes, thank you" answered songo.
The jewel stopped glowing.
"There you go ookami" said miroku handing over the jewel.
"Thank you, I'll do my very best to protect it, what will happen to you, now that naraku is dead."
"Well, the jewel said that we would traval with you, but we've decided to split up. Songo and I are going to live in a villages back. I believe Inuyasha has decided to traval alone."
"Oh, well...what about shippo?" asked ookami.
"Well, were debating who should take him, us or inuyasha"
"...I'll take him" offered Ookami.
Everyone looked at ookami. Especially shippo, he would like to go with her, she was nice and reminded him of kagome.
"Are you sure?" asked koga. "a kid is a lot of responsabilities."
"only if it's okay with shippo and his friends" answered ookami.
"It's okay with me" said songo.
"and me" said moroku.
" I could care less" said inuyasha.
"I'd love that!" said an exited shippo.
"then it's settled" declared ookami.
Around that time everyone departed in their own ways. Inuyasha to the east, miroku and songo in the south, and ookami and shippo to the west.(forgetting all about sesshomaru)
****************************************with shippo and ookami*********************************************************************
Shippo and ookami were walking through a forest area, shippo was trotting next to ookami, wondering why she offered to take him in.
"um,...Okkami Why did you offer to take me in? Not to be rude or anything, I'd just like to know."
Ookami looked at shippo with a warm smile. "well, you needed somewhere to stay, and someone to take care of you, so I offered. At first, I didn't know if I should offer, I mean you barly know me. Besides, I would love the company."
"Wow, thank you for offering, so where are we going, I'm getting sleepy."
"hmm, were not nearly there yet,....hold on would you like to rest?"
"yes, please"
"alrighty then(she picks up shippo and runs at demon speed to a clearing with a large field of flowers and a small lake) Okay shippo, you can sleep over here,...."
Ookami looked down at shippo o see that he already fell asleep in her arms. 'awww' thought ookami.
She walked to a rock that had vines surrounding it, almost enough to make a soft bed. She sat down and put her tail on her lap to make shippo a softer bed on her lap.
She layed back and fell asleep herself. Little did she know that a certain taiyoukai was coming in her exact direction, and he would be there any second.
*********************with lord sesshomaru***************************************
'I can sense her, she's close, I can feel it. I haven't seen or sensed her in such a long time. Why am I suddenly wanting to see her? Have I fallen for this wolf youkai?..... I soppose so. This sesshomaru just needs to find her and see how she's recovered from the poison'
"Please lord sesshomaru, can you slow down, ah-un is old you know, And I don't think he can keep up" called rin who was on a slightly panting two-headed dragon.
"hush human, don't bother the lord!" called jaken.
"sorry"
Sesshomaru stopped for a moment to sniff the air 'she's north' and then he started walking fast again.
Soon the group came across the exact large field that Ookami was in with shippo. 'she's here'
"lord sesshomar, why have we stopped, milord?" asked a confused jaken.
Sesshomaru looked forward and saw Ookami sleeping calmly on a vine covered rock. 'there'
Sesshomaru started walking forward, to Ookami, while ah-un decided to take a break and stayed there. Jaken stayed too, but rin followed.
Sesshomaru walked until he was just in front of her. "Woman, wake up" he commanded.
Ookami didn't move, but shippo flinched then woke up and stared in shock staring up at the large taiyoukai. "s-s-sess-s-sh--"
"say nothing, wake the demon you are curently resting on, fox" spitting out 'fox' as an insult. Shippo merely nodded and turned around and started to shake Ookami's shoulders.
"Ookami! Ookami wake up now!!! Wake up!!! OOKAMI!!!!!" yelled shippo.
Ookami woke with a shocked expression. "W-What happened shippo?!" But then she looked up to see sesshomaru looking down at her, frowning slightly(A/N: like always ^-^*)
"oh" said ookami dumbly. She stood up, keeping shippo protectivly(just as kagome did) "what do you want?"
"..."
"well?"
"..."
Ookami rolled her eyes and sighed "good morning lord sesshomaru, why do you bestow your company apon my humble self this morning" said Ookami irritated.
Sesshomaru smirked, "This sesshomaru wanted to see what effects my poison has givin you. And also why it hadn't killed you." 'not that I wanted it to'
" I am immune to many things my lord, poison is just one of them. Also, why would you care, You probably want me dead."
"...Who is that human behind you... she's adorable!!!" shrieked Ookami. She peered behind sesshomaru to see rin hiding behind him. She brought her head back up to sesshomaru. "I see your not SOOO bad milord, you must be taking care of her, am I correct?"
Sesshomary merely nodded.
