Ah! My first fanfic! Usan means "water" in a Mongolian language, not sure which one. If you haven't seen the first movie, (which I wouldn't blame you for missing) Hyoga is one of Inuyasha's father's enemies and Maia is my own character.

Readers welcome, reviewers adored!

Ryukotsusei looked at his mistress with concern. She had bean acting strangely since she had returned from the fortune tellers. "I wonder if I should have told anybody." She said quietly as she stared out the window into the village " Beware the wings of toxic fire that shall carry away our lady and destroy our sanctuary." She recited.

Outside a moth demon stood with his mate and a few other minions.

"I shall protect you from any harm Milady. " She smiled at her guardian demon "I know Ryuko" The dragon tensed and the girl swiveled to the window.

"Moths. A cloud of moths. Mother said those were poisonous." She gasped as they burst into flame and fell into the town setting it aflame. She leaped up and ran to the door, Ryukotsusei transforming and following her. She ran downstairs and thrust open the door of her parents' room to find them dead. She gasped, as a rafter fell, almost crushing her. Ryukotsusei grabbed it with his mouth and pulled it out of the way. She covered her mouth with her sleeve and ran outside and collapsed from the poison smoke.

"Such fun, Maia. This village was fun." he said to his love. The unamused woman glared at her lover. "I do not understand Hyoga, why when Seto-Maru and her empire are so much more of a threat, why are we wasting our time here burning measly villages?" she snapped, flapping her wings again to release another cloud of poisonous moths. Hyoga laughed cheerily.

Just then, a small girl and a dragon burst out of the castle and collapsed. The dragon transformed into its human form and disappeared into the girl's body, glowing.

"What is this?" Hyoga said, walking over to the girl. Lifting her head by her hair and looking at her very beautiful face he said "Such a beautiful thing in such a remote little village. I never imagined that we could find this treasure here."

The she-moth snarled.

"Put that thing down, Hyoga."

"Why-ever are you so hostile, my love? Such a beautiful thing should not be left to wilt here."

"It has a dragon attached to it. DO NOT MESS WITH A DRAGON, Hyoga!"

"You are so paranoid, my dearest Maia. You must learn to be flexible. That dragon was a guardian spirit and cannot do anything without her direct orders." The she-moth continued to sneer. Hyoga called over some of his minions with a rickshaw and tossed the girl in. They began to head home.

"AAAAAH!" The young woman sat bolt upright in unfamiliar surroundings. She didn't know where her guardian dragon had gone and remembered being in a burning building. Her parents were dead. There was an uncomfortable thing covering the crest on her forehead. She tried to pull it off. The circlet burnt her hand. She screamed again.

A very happy, yet evil looking demon walked into the room and laughed. "Silly girl. Do not try to remove the circlet of subjugation. I recognize that point on your forehead as the source of your power. So that you would not cause trouble for me, I had to bind it." She snarled at the cheery man.

"Usan!" Ryukotsusei appeared at the bedside. "Ryuko!" she exclaimed. Hyoga laughed. "Such a persistent little guardian spirit you are. It took so much to subdue you for so long. And yet when your master wakes, you appear again. Damn you're a hard demon to control. I can tell the two of you are going to be a handful."

Usan glared at him as a woman appeared at the door. "Hyoga, are you don't wasting our time with our...'guests'?" Hyoga laughed merrily. "This is my dearest beloved mate, Maia. If you are wise, you will listen to her, as not even I can control her." Maia snapped at him "Shut up you. You're goofing off too much. We need to prepare for our war now." Usan balked. "Ah. Alas, you are right my dear. We will go prepare for our battle now. You two should behave, otherwise my guards will probably behead you, but I don't really know, so just for the record-behave." Usan leered at the door as they left, then turned to Ryukotsusei and burst into tears.

I am not a very good writer, I have good ideas but my writing pretty much sucks, so if you have any tips they'd be appreciated! R&R please!
