I remember when I first met him, that silver-haired slave. I was captured by the Mongolian Army, so I could marry the Yuan Emperor so that he may legitimize his claim over all China since I am the Ming Princess, daughter of the Ming Emperor. Of course, I was not happy with it and I've starved myself, refusing to eat while my sister and our friend, disguised themselves as women warriors that are loyal to my father. My older sister, Hanakou, could pass for a female warrior for she had skill in weaponry and martial arts. She would stay by my carriage and protect any man who dared try to speak with me. Our friend, Sango, daughter of one of my father's nobles could pass for one as well since she too was taught weaponry but she was gifted fighting with a giant Boomerang while my sister mastered swords, sword-staffs, and archery. Along with us is a priestess who knows how comfort me and give me high hopes of soon going home but she could not persuade me into eating for I would suffer until I was home in the Palace. During our journey, we were attacked by Koreans.

A group of young men, soldiers with Chinese guards surrounded them as they entered the Ming Emperor's castle. A silver haired boy remained by a frail old man's side, his master. His name was InuYasha, he was a slave ever since he could remember and his father died in war with China and Korea and his mother, she had a fatal illness leading him to having no place to go and open for the slave market. His older brother ran way after their father died, he ran away to become stronger. The slave's amber eyes traveled toward the general, his named was General Bankotsu. He seemed to have an arrogant attitude and is completely inexperienced but the man that walks beside him use to be an army general, his name is Sesshomaru. He looked just like InuYasha but he knew that could not be his brother, it was just impossible.
There was an archer, his name was Miroku and he seemed to be nice to InuYasha and helped him whenever he needed help but InuYasha found himself disliking one of the soldiers, Koga since he had a nasty and cocky attitude which seemed to make InuYasha want to kick him in his throat but he always behaved for his master and he wouldn't just slip up in front o him.
"OPEN THE DOORS!" a Chinese guard said, letting the horses and soldiers through along with the other Chinese guards. When they went inside they were immediately surrounded by the Chinese Army, a sergeant had glared at them.
Bankotsu had a blank and impatient stare, he merely made his horse stop five paces from the Chinese army, "We're here for the peace settlement."
"Kill all the guards and send them off to prison." what exactly was happening?! Bankotsu had on a shock expression and was ready to attack him but an old Korean man shook his head. Bankotsu snarled, he was ready to go at it with him and he couldn't take this anymore because they were sent to exile. Their plan had gone all wrong, but why? They did nothing to anger the Chinese.

Sand. Nothing but sand and a hot Sun was around them, the sky was cloudless as they walked. InuYasha stood by his master's side, slowly every soldier and traveler were dying from dehydration. InuYasha looked at the General who still had his horse, all he could do was suck his teeth.
"Where are we going General?" Miroku asked, the General stopped his horse and looked down at him.
"We are going to Korea, we have to tell them we were not accepted by the Ming Emperor and that we were sentenced to exile." General Bankotsu looked ahead now, his horse walking on the sand before they walked into a battle site. Fresh blood and bodies scattered across the sand and weapons still available and able to be used. "Take some of the weapons, you'll need them."
Miroku had gotten more arrows while Sesshomaru decided he wasn't going to get anything. Bankotsu waited for others. Blood splattered on the sand from the coughing frail old man, InuYasha immediately went to his side and helped him up.
"I'll be fine." he said, his name was Myoga. He was kind to InuYasha, and never treated him less then a slave but more. InuYasha remained silently and saw someone give up their horse so the old man good rest atop of it but the General came walking over and this seemed to piss InuYasha off.
Bankotsu had a smug looked on his face, "He's going to die soon." those five words that InuYasha already knew but didn't want to hear, especially from the General. The marks always hurt of when he was hit on his back by the sheath of the General's sword. InuYasha didn't pay him any mind but take the reigns of the horse and held them as the brown animal walked beside him.

It was nighttime. InuYasha sat beside his master who laid down in what seemed to look like an olden day stretcher. Myoga coughed and heaved a bit before breathing slowly then back to normal. He slowly moved his head toward InuYasha, taking off a necklace that had the Korean symbol of Warrior. "I give you this and my sword," he then went over to his sash that was around his hips and slid out the sword from his red obi-like sash. On the top part of the sheath had caligraphic Korean words of honorable warrior. Amber eyes widened, had he not ever in his life received a gift and this made his eyes look glassy but he tried to be strong. These were parting gifts and InuYasha could not believe this nor accept this in his mind nor his heart. He looked at his master.
"Thank you." was said in a small whisper, Myoga merely smiled and coughed a bit before speaking.
"Do not think you owe me anything, I always wished I could be buried in my hometown but it seems far more impossible for that. I do not want to burden you with my dead body." said Myoga who slowly drifted off to sleep but InuYasha knew he was doing more then sleeping, he was slipping away, away from life and the world they resided in.
