Chapter One
Gold and Silver
The red and white cloth rustled around the fifteen year old raven haired girl. She tied her hair in the style of a miko. She stepped out the room, picking up her bow and a quiver of arrows on the way out. Her younger brother, Souta ran by, chasing after their overweight cat, Buyo.
Her name was Kagome, and she slid open the door that would lead outside. Cool air rushed at her, billowing out her raven hair. She continued walking, humming to herself. Suddenly, she stopped.
There, a few mere feet away stood her elder sister, Kikyo, at the age of nineteen. She was distant, and hardly ever spoke. While Kikyo had been able to fulfill all her miko powers, Kagome still had many years to go.
Their family lived in an important place, where many came to visit. A shrine where people came to confess or pray. The Bone Eaters well gaped open nearby, with the Go Shinboku tree not too far off.
Both were so young when their parents had died. Kagome was five, Kikyo was nine. Souta had only been adopted a few months ago and was still a baby. Kikyo had been teaching Kagome how to improve in her archery that day, and had returned home, finding the decapitated bodies of their father and mother, the stench of blood stinging their nostrils. Only Souta was left unharmed. Kagome hardly understood any of it, but Kikyo was never the same.
A few years later, Souta had a strange dream in which he remembered his adoptive parents falling to the ground, their heads rolling. Kagome and Kikyo begged him to remember who was the murderer. Souta only shrugged, saying it was too dark to see anything.
"There was shimmer of silver hair," he said though, "And piercing golden eyes that glowed brightly in the shadows."
Kikyo stood before the God Tree, her back facing Kagome. Her hands ran over the massive trunk. The branches bore hardly any leaves. The end of autumn drew near. She had heard her younger sister draw near. Dropping her hand to her side, she turned slowly.
Kagome gasped and looked down. She felt Kikyo's gaze on her. Kikyo, the perfect older sister. Everyone in the village knew her, but Kagome was oftentimes referred to as 'Kikyo's sister' Kikyo was the perfect miko too. She could purify her arrows, was silent, and seemed almost not human. As for her.
Kagome wasn't as graceful as Kikyo, and her purifying arrows were still not as strong. Her accuracy sometimes wasn't well either. She was fifteen and still hadn't mastered her miko powers. Kikyo was barely fourteen when she did.
Kagome sighed. Perhaps she just wasn't cut out to be a miko. Nervously, she looked up. Kikyo had disappeared from sight.
Kikyo walked silently through the forest. It was time she left. Kagome had to master her skills on her own. The Shikon no Tama had been shattered on the day her father and mother had been slaughtered, and she was fed up waiting for shard bearing demons to assault her village. Enough was enough.
She had seen those wasps flitting hastily about. Naraku would be getting an unexpected visit from her. A cracking twig caught her attention. With one fluid movement, an arrow had been notched to her bow.
"Feh," he growled. The dog demon muttered curses to himself as he hobbled along, clutching at his slowly healing broken arm. Blood stained his red haori(?), and scratches and deep gashes tore into his pants. He growled again as a sharp twig dug into his left foot.
His snowy white dog ears pricked up in the long mass of silver hair as a whistling sound neared him. The hanyou turned his head, and immediately darted away. An arrow embedded itself in the spot he was standing seconds before, leaving a large hole with a blowing explosion of white light. "Damn." He muttered as he looked up at the one opposing him.
Kikyo's frown deepened as she took in the demon's features. He was a half- breed, a hanyou. Long silver hair lay loose on his back, some falling over his shoulders and surrounding his face. Golden amber eyes glared dangerously at her. Kikyo pulled her bow taut.
.shimmer of silver hair.and piercing golden eyes that glowed brightly in the shadows.
"Are you the one.The dog hanyou.Inuyasha?" she asked.
Inuyasha snarled, revealing his fangs. "Feh! What is it to you, wench?"
Kikyo pulled her bow's string to the fullest extent. "Die!" Was all she said as she released her powerful arrow.
Inuyasha charged forward, placing a clawed hand on the hilt of his Tetsusaiga. "We'll see who di-" His words were cut off as the arrow plunged into his chest. He was thrown back, slamming into a tree. The arrow pierced all the way through his demon body, pinning him to the tree.
His head smashed against the tree and his vision blurred. The force of the blow brought flickering lights to his eyes.
"D-damn." he murmured, before he fell into the black shadows of unconsciousness.
