The Silver Green Eyes of Heaven
An InuYasha Fanfic

Chapter 1: MY SHIKON SHARD!
Disclaimer: First off, I do not own InuYasha nor any of the characters in the series. The only thing I do own is my own original character. Thank you.
Author's Note: Well, I haven't written any stories for the longest time. SO…this is my first since my long (and I do mean long) vacation from writing. I hope it ends up well. I WILL stop writing if I don't get constant reviews…constructive criticism is GREATLY appreciated. And yes…this is slightly AU and maybe a bit OOC. Lemon? Not sure…we'll see.
How long have I been here…stuck in this Feudal Era…Deep emerald eyes gleamed in the dark as their owner contemplated her life and what it had become. She sighed heavily as she silently slipped from her branch to another, so she could get a better look at the floor of the forest below her. I thought so. Racoon demon with a shikon shard. The woman was just about to jump down on the demon when she heard a yell. "What the…"
"THERE IT IS!" yelled Kagome as she took careful aim with her bow. Inuyasha pulled out tetsusaiga and slashed the raccoon demon in half, exposing the shikon shard. He reached for it, but was pulled back by the barbs on the raccoon demon's tail. Kagome released her arrow, hitting the raccoon right in the throat, causing enough of a distraction so that Inuyasha could back up and blow the demon to pieces.
"Kaze no KIZU!" The raccoon demon let out a horrible shriek as it was torn to pieces. Kagome watched the shikon shard fly high in the air. She ran over and deftly caught it in her hand, instantly purifying it.
The pair of emerald eyes narrowed as they watched the scene below. My shikon shard…and she purified it so quickly…but MY SHIKON SHARD! Waves of anger threatened to spill forth from her lithe form and pummel the silver-haired demon. She completely ignored the young girl next to him. DUMB DEMON.
"YATTA! That's another one to add to our collection." Kagome danced happily as Sango and Miroku finally came out with Shippo who began jumping around as well. Inuyasha shook his head and sheathed tetsusaiga. Suddenly Kagome stiffened. "Shikon shard…a lot of them…right…"
"Behind you." A voice interrupted. The voice was smooth and melodious. It was soft yet threatening, and sent chills up everyone's spine. "I believe you have something of mine." Each not believing what they saw.
Inuyasha 'keh'ed at the sight of the lean woman. She had a small and delicate frame, which only conveyed weakness. However, something in the back of his mind told him to stand guard. Her scent was light and airy, like fresh rain with a hint of cherry blossoms and something he couldn't quite place. It was almost mesmerizing.
Sango stared at the woman's strange garb, but kept her guard up, her sharp eyes noticing the vast array of weapons the woman carried on her outfit. Double swords, a strange bow, arrows, and an array of knives and daggers (most hidden from view). What really piqued her interest were the woman's strange 'claws'. They were made of some kind of metal that went over her hand like an exoskeleton. There was nothing sharp on it, which confused her, but she wouldn't want to get hit by them. "Miroku…I don't like her…she's dangerous…" she whispered. Miroku however just nodded.
"But she's so…" he immediately stopped, feeling hiraikotsu about to hit his head. He could not help it though. The woman that stood before them had the most mesmerizing, deep, emerald eyes. Her skin was like smooth porcelain, contrasting with her ebony hair that was twisted up so it stuck out like a crown behind her head. She had long, lean legs that went well with her just-curvy-enough hips and small waist that led up to a perfect chest: not too big nor small. Miroku could feel his hand itching to touch her perfect curves, but instantly remembered Sango, the love of his life. It's lust…he convinced himself.
Shippo looked at the woman with curious eyes. "Wow…you're pretty." He said as Kagome mentally hit herself for how naive Shippo could be at times. The woman looked a little startled for a moment, then smiled at the kitsune: not one of her killing smiles, but a true smile. The kind she hadn't smiled for many years.
Kagome on the other hand could not stop staring at the woman's outfit. It was tight black leather. Everything. From her sleevless top (covers her neck) that slid into smooth painted-on pants that eventually melted into knee-high leather high-heeled boots. Her whole outfit was adorned with various belts and buckles to hold all her items and weapons in place. A strange gem adorned her throat, attached to a leather buckle. The same gems adorned the top of her strange 'claws'. Her wrists were wrapped in black leather as well. Kagome knew that this outfit was definitely not from this era. Her blue eyes widened. "You…you're from my time!" She looked at the woman even more carefully suddenly realizing why she looked so familiar. "You are that singer Ceres that disappeared years ago!"
The woman's eyes went from the kitsune to the girl holding him. For the first time she noticed the girl's outfit. It was exactly like what she used to wear in highschool…and the name. So many years had gone by without hearing someone call her name. Yes, when she was 16 her life had been perfect. She was a popular singer loved by everyone. Her parents had been good to her, until that one incident. Ceres shook her head, not wanting to think of it. Everything had shattered after that. It was all HIS fault. "You must be from the future as well then…" she said softly, letting down her guard. That's when Inuyasha attacked.
"She's got shards? Then let's kill her!" He lunged forward. Kagome ran after him. "Inuyasha no!" But it was too late. He was slashing his claws at her. What caught everyone by surprise was how easily she blocked his attacks, and the look of annoyance on her face. Finally, she grabbed his shoulders, flipped herself over him (therefore confusing him…can you imagine the confused look on puppy's face? Lol.) and jumped onto a branch of a nearby tree. She had an arrow glowing with pure energy aimed at him before he could turn fully.
"I will kill you…and I will not miss." She said softly, her deep eyes gleaming with cold fire.
"THEN TRY!" Inuyasha growled as he brought tetsusaiga down, readying Kaze no Kizu.
