Inuyasha's Childhood

Chapter: 1 – The past

Inuyasha was about 8 or 9 when he was being chased by many demons wanting to kill him. Inuyasha quickly ran under a ledge and hid there for a while until they were gone.

Inuyasha was very scared; fear was shone easily through his eyes. When he no longer heard the sound of the groggily voices he ran further down the small cliff and into a dark cave next to a river.

Only a few minutes later he noticed someone by the river. They were as small as he was,about his age.

"Hey! What are you doing by my camp site?" He shouted as he left the safety of his cave.

The young child turned to him; Inuyasha was speechless.

It was a young girl in a long, white sleeved shirt, and really loose red pants. She was wearing some kind of crown on her head. Her hair was long and white. "Oh, sorry; I was just trying to get some food," she said, turning to him.

She walked closer to Inuyasha and held out her hand. "I'm Kida."

Inuyasha took her clawed hand and shook it. "Inuyasha."

"Are you a half demon?!" Kida blurted out.

Inuyasha quickly let go. "Why do you ask?"

"Because I'm a half demon too," Kida said as she removed her crown and showed him her little white dog ears.

Inuyasha was shocked.

Kida put her crown back on and smiled.

"Where'd you get that?" Inuyasha asked.

"What? My crown? Oh, my mom gave it to me. She um…died. She was taken from me a long time ago. I never saw her again," Kida said sadly as she looked down.

Inuyasha did the same. "My mom died too; about a coupe months ago."

"And your dad?"

"He died when I was born; he died trying to save my mom," Inuyasha explained.

"My dad was taken to war and I never saw him again either," Kida said. She sighed, trying to get over her sudden change of despair. She ran over to Inuyasha's cave and put her cold hands near the burning fire.

Inuyasha walked over to her and sat next to her silently.

"So, you're on you own; like me."

Inuyasha nodded.

"Well, how about we stick together; to survive," Kida suggested.

"I-I don't know. I've always worked on my own, not trusting anyone to survive," Inuyasha answered.

"Well you can trust me," Kida said with a sweet smile. "I'm just like you."

Inuyasha sighed. "I guess it can't hurt."

Kida smiled bigger. She stood and ran to the river to catch some fish. She began clawing the water and finally a fish came flying out; flopping on the ground.

Inuyasha walked over to her with a big smile on his face. "Wow! How'd you do that?!"

"I've been practicing for a while. My mom showed me how to do it."

"Your mom was a demon?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yup. She told me that when she first met my father, he couldn't stop following her. He loved her so much and she couldn't help but fall in love right back," Kida said. "Was your mom demon or human?"

"Human. She was very welcoming but was weak. Nice and caring; I'd do anything for her," Inuyasha said.

Kida smiled sweetly, knowing how much children care for their mothers; she thought it was very sweet. She then held up her big fish, still wobbling freely. "Want some?"

Inuyasha couldn't help but smile. He took the fish and sliced three claws into it, killing it completely. They then walked over to the fire and began cooking it.
