Sorry for the mistakes and the headaches but I got a beta! And thanks to Bookwormjavajunkie I have chapters that aren't so bad in grammar. So thank you Nozomi (Bookwormjavajunkie) for making my chapters better!

Chapter one: The Girl
Inuyasha and the gang had been on their way searching for shards of the Shikon no Tama. Now, they were going down the familiar path to the well because Kagome had gotten mad at Inuyasha and stormed off somewhere. Somehow, she had gotten herself in trouble and received a two-inch gash ending at the small of her back. Shippo had offered to carry her, in his pink ball form, as she had to lie on her stomach.
Off in the distance they heard an awful scream and the horrifying sound of skin ripping. The group looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"I'll go with Inuyasha," Sango said. "Houshi-sama, you and Shippou stay with Kagome. Come on, Kirara."
The forest was thick and covered with twigs at the floor, and with his current mood Inuyasha had no tolerance for such trivial obstacles, so the hanyou and demon slayer took off on the two-tail. When they reached the victim Sango glanced back at Inuyasha and was startled at what she had seen. Inuyasha had… tears in his eyes?
Kirara landed and Sango and Inuyasha rushed towards the source of the scream. Sango looked the girl over, examining the long gashes all over her body. The girl's eyes were glazed over and she lay very still. Sango knew immediately that she was dead.
Inuyasha walked over to the girl, shivering. It being the middle of summer, Sango was confused. He was shivering as if he was cold, but that couldn't possibly be. But then she looked and saw the tears in his eyes again. Sango turned her attention back to the girl and noticed something about her. She was a … hanyou.
Something struck Sango and she turned to Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, is this girl related to you?"
Seemingly not hearing the question, Inuyasha muttered, "I-Imouto-san…"
"Imouto-san?" Sango questioned.
Before Sango could do anything Inuyasha was hugging the other hanyou tight. A pink aura surrounded the hanyou's and the wounds and gashes seemed to close themselves.
Sango noticed that the girl's clothes were very similar to Inuyasha's; they were made of ivory toned fabric with gold stitching. On her back was a katana with Sakura engraved on the black sheath. Her gentle skin was still red from the already healed gashed, and her eyes were a soft honey color. She had a silver cat's tail that matched the shade of her long hair that seemed to fan about her face.
Only one thought could cross through Sango's mind.
Who was this girl?
