The Legend

Many years ago there was a couple who loved each other very much, but could not be together. Kazuo and Akina. Kazuo was a 17 year old demon who fell in love with Akina, a 16 year old human girl. They met one day and they fell deeply in love. When Kazuo's parents found out about him and Akina seeing each other, they became outraged.

They told Kazuo that it was forbidden to fall in Love with a human and if anyone else found out about this love he would be executed. They told him that he was forbidden to see Akina ever again and if he did they would turn him in themselves.

It was their Lord's command that if any demon who should fell in love with a human would be executed or worse they would execute your love. Kazuo did not care what his parents said and ignored them completely. He thought that life without Akina was unbearable and without her, life would not be worth living.

He disobeyed his parents' orders and went to see Akina and planned to elope. Kazuo's parents found out about his actions and turned him in to their Lord. The Lord was furious and told him that he would be executed the next morning.

Akina found out about his execution from her messenger. She was devastated and attempted to kill herself, but was stopped by one of her maids. Her maid asked her what she was doing and Akina told her everything. The maid understood what she was going through and comforted her. The maid told Akina to go see her friend who lives in the old forest that night. She told her that her friend could help her if she tells her the problem. Akina agreed and went to the old forest to find her maid's friend, Kaori.

Kaori lived in a little cabin that looked all worn. Akina knocked on the door and was greeted by an old lady. Akina asked if the old woman was Kaori and she said that she was. Akina then told Kaori her problem and Kaori gave Akina a dark blue bottle.

"Drink this bottle tonight and the next morning go to your loves execution and show yourself to everyone. Tell them that it was you he fell in love with," Kaori told her.

"How can this help me?" Akina asked.

"Don't worry, just follow my instructions."

Akina went back home, left a note for her parents and followed the instructions of the old woman. She drank the entire bottle that was filled with a liquid and she fell onto her bed.

Early the next morning Akina dressed in a long black cloak with beautiful long purple gown underneath and took one of her father's daggers. She went to where her beloved was going to be hung and waited. The guards came and took Kazuo to the rope that was going to kill him that morning.

Before they pulled the lever, Akina ran up the stairs to where Kazuo was standing with the rope around his neck. Akina cried and told them that she was the one he had fallen in love with. She through off her cloak and everyone was shocked at what they saw.

So begins our story in ancient Japan. Once a demon turns 17, he must find a mate before his 18th birthday. If the demon should fail to find a mate, then the parents or guardians must choose for him/her. If a demon should ever fall in love or be in contact with a human, he or his love is to be executed or severely punished and is to never see each other ever again.

Inutaisho, a dog demon, has 2 sons. The oldest is 17 year old Sesshoumaru and the youngest is 6 year old Inuyasha. Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha both have long silver hair like their father, but every night of the new moon, Inuyasha's hair turns black and he loses his puppy ears.

"Otou-san? Why do I lose my ears every time there is a new moon?" A chibi Inuyasha asked.

"Well, that's because…because…you're special," his father replied trying to think of what to say.

Behind them there was a pouting Sesshoumaru, listening to every word. He had always thought that ever since Inuyasha was born his father was giving Inuyasha more attention and he was Jealous. Even though his hatred was strong, he kept it hidden inside. Now that Sesshoumaru is 17, it is time for him to go search for a mate.

That night Inutaisho took his son to the top of the hill outside their home to bid his son farewell.

"There is a prophecy that history is going to repeat itself, the legend of our ancestors, Akina and Kazuo. You must be aware of this prophecy," Inutaisho said handing Sesshoumaru a tiny book containing the prophecy.

"Yes, father," Sesshoumaru said taking the book and placing it inside his bag.

"Take care son and I hope you find the one for you," Inutaisho said placing his right hand on Sesshoumaru's left shoulder.

"Bye-Bye Big Brother," Inuyasha said running to Sesshoumaru and giving him a hug. Sesshoumaru ignored his brother and walked away.

He hated Inuyasha for taking away his father, but in the same time he loved him. He didn't know what to think. It hurt him greatly when he turned away from his little brother and hearing his cries.

He didn't want to show his Father that he was vulnerable to such a thing. As he continued to walk, Inuyasha ran after him, crying out his name over and over again. Sesshoumaru began to walk faster and Inuyasha started to run faster, but tripped and fell on his face.

"Big Brother? Bye! BYE!" He cried. He sat on the cold ground, watching his brother leave him. Inuyasha placed his hands over his face and cried, trying to calm himself down.

He loved his brother; Sesshoumaru was his Idol. He wanted to be just like him when he was older. Suddenly he was picked up by warm hands. It was his father, Inutaisho.

"It's okay, Inuyasha. He'll be back," He said rubbing the dirt off of the chibi's wet face.
"He'll be back."
