AN: Well, if you've read this before then what I'm about to say should be obvious. I'm making some changes to this story. I went back a re-read what I'd written, and didn't like it (plus I couldn't remember where I was taking the story) so here is the (hopefully) improved version of Dark Wanderer.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha

Dark Wanderer


The figure slipped silently out of the hut and down the shadowy path.

Silent.

She must remain silent if her plan was going to work. A twig cracked somewhere in the darkness and she froze. Sending out her energy, she found that everyone was where she left them. No one was near.

Releasing the breath she had been holding she started down the path once more.

Inuyasha would kill her if he caught her. She stopped at the sudden thought, and turned back towards the hut.

"Inuyasha…" Her hand flew to her neck and the incomplete jewel, which hung around it.

No! I must do this! She corrected herself and without further thought continued down the path at a run, staying as silent as she could.
