Shinzui's Tale
Authors Note: This story is about Inuyasha but they have not been introduced in the story yet. All of the Silver Wolves are my original characters and represent some of my friends and by no means should be used without my permission anywhere. The Inuyasha characters however are not mine and I take no claim to them. They belong to their respective owner(s).
I know what I have written so far is small but I will add on more. This is my first Fic and I posted what I have so far to hopefully get some helpful comments or ideas. I would like to thank the wonderful person the wolf Yume was based on for her support in everything related to this story. -Bows-
~A Little Information~
A silver wolf may grow as big as a normal sized house during its teenage years. Around 500 to 600 years old I should say. An adult may grow as big as two normal sized houses or bigger. You would be classified as an adult around 1000 to 1500 years old. There is no exact age because of how large silver wolves grow. But, they are only this big during the time when they choose to take their true form. They usually take the form of a normal wolf but silver.
Silver wolves were seen as magical, mysterious and wise. Some even referred to them as gods. But that was long ago. Now in present day the human and demon race alike think they are all extinct. But that is not so. The last pack remaining has hidden away in a sacred mountain valley. No one but themselves knows of their existence. For if the world knew, they would be hunted.
Silver wolves have the ability to fly but don't normally take flight in bad weather. The pack also consists of around 13 wolves. Kaze, Yume, and Shinzui are all in their teenage years with Kaze being the oldest (580 years old), Shinzui (547 years old), and Yume being (532 years old). Shinzui and Yume are half demons. Meaning if you don't already know half human, half demon. They can both take a human form but Shinzui prefers to stay as a wolf because she never really got the whole human thing and Yume enjoys teasing village men.
On a stormy night a pack of silver wolves were treading through the snow. All of different sizes and ages. As the wolves padded on through the deep drifts of snow, one could be seen lagging behind. It was Hade, the youngest in the pack. Her friends, Kaze, and the two half demons Shinzui, and Yume were trying to help her keep up. "How much further do we have to walk?" whined Hade as she tried to move through the snow. "Not much further little one" replied Kaze wearily. Sadness could be seen in her eyes for the poor little wolf. "If we get much more of this retched snow I think I'll start hibernating like the bears!" Shinzui barked sourly. "Well at least we know no other demons will be around and cause trouble in this weather" stated Kaze while scenting the breeze. "Well if there were any demons around I'd kick their scaly butts, especially if their Naraku's demons" Shinzui barked. "You can't have all the action to yourself" Yume said while stopping to stare at Shinzui. Stopping to meet her stare Shinzui replied "Well if your so eager then you can have the first kill next time if the adults let you".
After the pack had reached their den site which was in a large clearing, Yume, Kaze, Shinzui, and Hade padded over to the rock formation that made a small cave. Laying down in the soft earth, Hade fell asleep immediately. Soon after Hade, Kaze was fast asleep which left Yume and Shinzui still awake. Outside of the cave, the storm was getting worse with snow covering everything that lay outside of the cave. The wind could be heard whistling and moaning making vision in the storm hard.
