ATTENTION - This is NOT a Sesshomaru fic. He does appear in it but only as a minor character. This is a ocXShishinki fic! The site does not have Shishinki in the categories so I choose the closest thing.
Alrighty then! this is my first inuyasha fic! im very excited i had a lot of fun writing this! of course it is an OC story and is based on inuyasha the final act series! :) im soo glad they made a proper ending... i cried at how bad the firs tone was.. silly inuyasha! hehe, well anyways.. this was a big challenge since there is NOTHING about Shishinki except one measly episode.. such a shame he's so cute! :P soo, i'll admit, he's made up to as close as I could get to what i think he would be like! well anyways, this chapter is third person, the others will be character POV's .. just a heads up.

"Wh-Why are you doing this?"
The odd looking girl, clearly not of the same species as the bleeding man below her stood, her hands on her hips. She rolled her eyes in annoyance and disgust at the rambles of the dying human. Such a pathetic thing really.
"It's clear isn't it, I never loved you, humans and demons cannot love one another!" she let out a sigh, "'Why?... What a ridiculous question. Can't you pathetic scum just accept the fact that it's happening?"
She bent down to face him eye to eye as she questioned the man and he flinched away from her, the tears in his eyes from both internal and external wounds. This caused a sadistic smirk to spread across her face. The sight of a demon slayer wanna-be lay beneath her feet as his weapons and armour had been stripped away. His heart truly tested and failed. I sputter of incoherent words fell out of the man's mouth as he presumably begged for his life.
"Tsh."
The demon stood up in annoyance, her prey no longer gave her amusement, slowly and with a corrupt presence she pulled out a long thin katana like sword. I suppose this is farewell. Hyeah, hyeah. The disguise shimmered away and a different demon stood before the man, he opened his mouth to say something but, with a simple swing toward the ground, the man was cut in half. All that was left was a puddle of curdled red.
"Well, now that my game is over, I need some more entertainment, the night is still young." He was less of a challenge than I presumed. "I shall look for something new to play with."
A strange feeling in the wind could be felt through her bones, it was a delightful smell, one of dark feelings, doubts, regret, sorrow... Many things swirling around in a big puddle of fun. There has been a lot of that lately, for so long now. Due to the ever long battle of the Sacred Jewel. All the demon knew was along this battle there laid some sick twisted web of lies and feelings and it makes the bells on her skirt jingle in fascination. With a cackle and a cheer, the demon girl began to sink into the very ground, a twinkle of joy in her eyes.
"Let's see who our next contestant is. Hyeah, hyeah, hyeah!"
It's been hours and the sky had long been dark. A group of 5 travelers and a cat took shelter in a small field, their fire burned and cackled in the night's crisp air. The group was silent, doing their own thing as the night went on, all unable to fall asleep after the former situations that have taken place. They sat, completely oblivious to the pink and blue swirling cloud slowly invading around them.
"Huh? What's that?" A man with dog ears and a red hakama sniffed around.
"What is it Inuyasha?" A black haired human questioned.
"Smells like candy!" A small fox demon cheered.
They all stood up, bringing back their guard they have all selflessly let down. A dark snicker echoed in the cloud.
"What's going on guys?" A women in a demon slaying outfit questioned.
"Sango!" The monk called out.
His calls were futile, the sweet candy like mist had covered their hearing, smell and sight. Leaving them lost in the spot they stood. Invading their secrets. It seems the monk and demon slayer have created quite the bond, along with the half demon and human girl. hyeah, hyeah, hyeah, hyeah!
"Betrayal is such a powerful emotion, one even most demons cannot redeem themselves from."
Let's go after the strongest first shall we?
Inuyasha looked around, growling in annoyance.
"Kagome! Kagome!"
The fog began to clear and he noticed the fact no one was around, all that stood was a large box with strange red and yellow patterns. On the front was a skull and cross bone with a large smile coloured with purple. He drew his sword, letting the blade take full form and leaped, bringing the sword down only to be flung back. Not even the slightest scratch could be seen on the box.
"What the hell?"
He walked up, the sword resting on his shoulder. On the side of the box stuck out a handle. He bent down to examine it, underneath a talisman was stuck there, on it it read;
"Spin me around, hear my sound."
The half-breed was reluctant, but did as it was told, curiosity getting the best of him. He grabbed a hold of the colourful handle and began to spin it around and around. A bewitching sound chimed from inside of the box. It was upbeat tune, yet the sound was so calming, like some sort of child's song. The half demon's eyes began to flutter as they had trouble staying completely open, with half lids the arm continued to spin with the help of his arm.
"Th-This song.. It-It's so pretty..."
Oh, caught in it so fast doggy demon. A couple more twists of the handle and the top of the box sprung open and a girl with black hair sprung around just like the child's toy. Inuyasha jumped back out of his daze pointing the sword at the interruption. There standing inside the box was none other then Kagome. Why is she in the box? He let his sword drop only for the girl to jump at him and sending an arrow after him. He quickly jumped out of the way, distress covering his features.
"Kagome! It's me! What are you doing?"
"You bastard!"
What's happening? Something feels off. Was all he thought, it wasn't her looks, her face or even her voice. Even the scent was the same.
"What the hell?"
He growled as he jumped out of the way from another arrow. That's when he noticed it, the power she shot at him, it wasn't hers, it was something demonic.
"You strung me along and used me this whole time!"
The girl shouted, sending arrow after arrow, tears falling from her eyes. It pained Inuyasha to see this, but he didn't understand what she was shouting about.
"What are you blabbering about Kagome?"
Arrow after arrow the half-demon converted and dodged, scared to attack his beloved partner. Anger was so pure on her face, it was hard to even recognize her.
"You only wanted me around to save that women! You wanted to use me to save Kikyo!"
"What?"
Hyeah, hyeah, hyeah, oh the pain in his face. It warms the cockles of my heart. So, this is one of the famous doggy demons sons. How cute. Inuyasha jumped back again, Kagome finally ceased, panting.
"You played with my heart just to save your precious Kikyo, you bastard!"
It wasn't until he watched her shout at him, the flash of her brown irises turning crimson and going back again. What was that? I think I get it now... That's not even Kagome... He growled as he ran toward her. I will not forgive this crap!
"See! Now you're going to kill me! Just because I wasn't good enough!"
"You're right! You're not good enough!" He raised the Tetsuiga in the air, readying it. "You're not good enough to impersonate Kagome! DIE!"
He swung his sword down with a fierce battle cry, the body split in half, falling to the ground. As the cloud began to lift the disguise did as well. A snowman shaped doll laid in 2 pieces. It's body painted in the way of a clown. It reminded Inuyasha of something Shippo would play with. He turned to see everyone asleep in the ground, the fire put out and the smoke drifting in the air.
"Kagome! Everyone!"
They all began to blink awake, pushing themselves up from their sleep.
"What, What happened?" Sango questioned.
"I don't know, I remember smelling candy and then I was asleep." The monk replied as he helped the woman up.
"Are you all alright?" Inuyasha questioned, holding onto Kagome.
"Yeah."
"Inuyasha are you okay? You look startled."
Inuyasha looked down at the face of the black haired women. Is that how she really feels inside? Is that what she thinks?
"Inuyasha?"
He shook his head, relieving his mind of the impossible thoughts.
"I'm fine."
He helped the women up and began to make his way back to the large box that tricked him before, the lid still seemed to be open.
"Blasted no good half-breed! How dare he wreck my precious outfit!"
The demon mumbled to herself as she lay in the bottom of the box, her nice shirt now had a slice below the boobs, leaving her stomach bare.
"I look like a slutty jester now, hyeah, hyeah, that's not very nice."
She began to brush off her loss and joked about the events.
"Who the hell are you?"
She looked up to see the 5 travellers looking down in the box. She smiled and jumped up, hovering in the air above them before landing a few feet behind them.
"It's only the first date and you try to take my clothes off! Hyeah, hyeah, hyeah, hyeah!"
"What the hell is your problem?"
The demon let out a sigh, putting her hands behind her head. She looked down to notice the material open up showing off her stomach.
"I'm Jacklyn Box. The jester of the Underworld. Pleased ta meetcha!"
Her smile was so sweet and pleasant.
"You tried to kill me and now you act all nice? I'm gonna kill you!"
The white haired man brought his sword out once again, stepping forward in attack. He was stopped by the small girl with strange clothes.
"Inuyasha wait."
"What?"
"Kagome, she's a demon." The monk called out.
"Ahtatata, that I am, but I'm a fair demon, hyeah, hyeah."
The girl in the jester outfit began to walk away lifting her feet up high in a comical exit.
"You beat my game half-breed, so I'm leaving... Duuuh!"
"Why you..!"
"You're just going to leave? Just like that?"
The demon shrugged twirling on her feet to face the travellers once again.
"I'm not a sore loser. If I lose I leave, but, that doesn't mean I won't be back! Hyeah, hyeah, hyeah!"
"I'm killing you now you annoying clown! Wind Scar!"
Inuyasha charged regarding the girl in front of him, he swung his sword and a vast of yellow light went crawling toward the demon. When the dust settled nothing could be seen, he swung his sword on his shoulder and turned. A triumphant grin on his face. Before he took a step forward a springing person came up from the ground in front of his face. Their hands waving beside it's head and their tongue flying around spitting on him. He flinched back in a holler, bringing his sword back around. The girl just popped out of the ground and flew back.
"Hyeah, hyeah, hyeah! Silly half-breed. I try and be civil and you do such a thing. Tisk, tisk. Hyeah. Did you're father not teach you how to treat a lady? Hyeah, hyeah, hyeah."
The jester landed in front of Kagome, her clawed hands grasping her chin.
"You're cute." Growling implied the demon was after her again so she began to sink into the ground. "You should keep your dog on a leash! Hyeah, hyeah, hye-"
She was gone into the ground, and the group was left staring in amazement. Shippo sniffed the air and shrugged.
"I think she's gone, I can't smell the candy anymore."
"Next time I see that bitch I'm going to kill her!"
Kagome put her hand on the angered man's shoulders.
"We have bigger things to worry about, calm down Inuyasha."
"You didn't see what she tried to pull.. She tried to impersonate you... She's not safe to have around!"
"Well that was a failure, hyeah... I guess he had more faith in her than I had realised."
The jester pranced around in the forest as the moonlight trickled through the leaves.
"Ah well, let's find a new game shall we? Hyeah, hyeah, hyeaaahh."
I only have a couple hours before the wounds settle in once again... The demon bit her lip, slight worry took over her sliced outfit.
