Chapter One: Tiger Hanyou Extrodinaire
"He's here I can smell it." A mysterious figure appeared in one of the forests in Feudal Japan. Hollow, her name, looked for this hanyou, Inuyasha. Hollow ran dodging tree stumps, branches, and tree roots. Her trusty moccasins allowed her to go faster within every step. She stopped suddenly stepping carefully into the illuminating light of a campfire. Hollow's eyes searched for the hanyou. Her piercing eyes led to a figure slumped on a tree.
"Should I really do this?" She asked herself. "Of course I should!"
Hollow crept along the bushes making sure to keep her head down low. The figure appeared to be sleeping...
The perfect opportunity. She thought. Quietly, she stepped out of the bushes. Hollow reached for her pocketknife. She grasped its handle and the blade shot out. Being deadly silent, Hollow climbed the tree becoming closer to the slumped figure.
Hollow reach the branch opposite of the legendary hanyou and grabbed his shoulders with one arm while with the other threatening to slit his throat.
"Who are you?" He managed to say while struggling for his freedom.
"Relax. My name is Hollow. I wish to join your quest to renew the Shikon no Tama."
"No way!" He said. Hollow tightened her grip on the hanyou's shoulders.
"My, my! You should watch that temper of yours. It could get you into some nasty," She raised the knife to his chin. ", Situations."
"Fine! You can join our quest!"
"Thank you," she said. "I guess my business here is done." Hollow jumped down the tree and started to walk by the campfire.
"Wait!" Inuyasha yelled. "At least let me see your face."
"Very well." Hollow turn her head. The fire illuminated her face. She was a tiger hanyou. She had two vertical stripes under both of her piercing green eyes. She had tiger ears and a tail to match. There were two horizontal stripes on her right cheek. She had fangs.
"I'll see you at day break." And with that, Hollow disappeared through the bushes.
Damn hanyou... Hollow thought. He'll probably ditch me the first chance he gets... Hollow sighed.
"You win a few you lose a lot..." Hollow said. "Especially in my case." Hollow let a tear slide down her cheek. She fell into a soft sleep.
I screamed in agony.
"That'll teach ya," the master said to me. "Damn women..." I got up and wiped the blood spilling out of my mouth. I couldn't believe he beat me! The nerve of him! My damn parents... leaving me here alone to live with this weirdo...
I wept softly into my hands. The whole night I just sat there... curled up in a ball... crying... crying myself to sleep...
Hollow awaked to the refreshing gaze of the golden sun rising off to the horizon. At least today I have something to look forward to... Hollow thought. She got up and started to walk to where Inuyasha was.
There were three purple lumpy sacks that lay where the burnt out fire was. Inuyasha sat in his tree... probably waiting for something to happen.
"Didn't expect you to be here." Inuyasha said surprisingly.
"Yeah, well we tiger demons always keep our promises..."
"But you aren't full demon..."
"Neither are you...glad you noticed though"
Something stirred in one of the lumpy sacks. A girl about Inuyasha's age popped out of one of the purple sacks. She screamed and grabbed a bow and an arrow.
"You'll be sorry you have ever intruded on this camp!" She pulled her arrow back further threatening to shoot me.
"Oh yeah? Let's see what you got." Hollow replied with attitude. The girl shot the arrow... only it did not look like a regular arrow... it was a purity arrow... Humph! When will this world give me a real challenge? Hollow thought. Hollow faced the arrow and put her left hand out. The arrow drew closer...and closer until-- She caught it! Hollow smirked. Ha! She seriously thought she could shoot me? Well she thought wrong!
"But—but—how?" The girl stammered. Hollow smirked again.
"Do you really think you could hit me with this?" She threw the arrow to the ground. "You obviously have not heard of me."
"I do not think I have met you."
"My name is Hollow," Hollow grinned. "Tiger hanyou extrodinaire."
