1. Chapter 1

Prologue

In the far-off northeast, a young woman no older than 16 was making her through a particularly brutal snowstorm, but that did nothing to deter her from going towards her destination that was near the infamous Mt. Hakurei. It is believed that Mt. Hakurei is a place of absolute Purity and no demons or impure humans alike could enter this sacred place. Not that this matters much to the young woman, as the place she was going to, was just below Mt. Hakurei.

Eventually she came upon her designation, which was the newly erected tomb for the Band of Seven, who were executed nearly 7 months ago. The woman took off her hooded that she wore to protect her from the strong winds, which caused her long black hair to start flowing.

She sighed in exasperation and said "Always so impatient. If you had just headed my warning, this wouldn't have happened.

She bent down and laid a bouquet of fresh flowers on the grave for the fallen seven.

As she got back up she just smiled and said "No matter what's done is done. Though I already seen we shall meet again in the world of the living someday.

She then put one of her hands over her swollen belly and said, "Don't worry Bankotsu, I will ensure that our child becomes a warrior just like you."

Author's Note

There's the prologue to my new story and I hope everyone likes it. I was rewatching the band of seven arc and I forgot how much I loved Bankotsu. This story just kind of popped into my head and wouldn't leave. Next chapter will take place 15 years later, just a bit before Naraku resurrects The Band of Seven.
