The Half-Blood Princess
Chapter 1
In which our heros and heroines are introduced
"Inuyasha!" The dog-demon lord's youngest son, Inuyasha, swivelled around. His questioning look was soon replaced by a look of grudge. His elder brother, Sesshoumaru, glided to a halt in front of his ten-year-old brother. An evil smile played on his lips. "Inuyasha. Father ordered me to saddle Ah Un. Do it." Inuyasha bravely stuck out his shaking lip, and demanded, "Why do I have to do it, huh, Sesshoumaru? Dad ordered you to-" A whip-like claw collided with the boy's cheek. Blood trickled down from the gash. Inuyasha glared at his brother, awe, and fear filling his eyes. Sesshoumaru cocked his head. "Because you are younger than me so you must show respect, and-", he paused, and his smile broadened. Inuyasha shrank back, not wanting to hear the next phrase. "-and because you are a half-demon, you worthless cur!"
Inuyasha stared at the patch of ground in front of him. His mother's grave. She hadn't even been permitted a headstone, and she had been buried far from all the other burial grounds. A sharp pain struck his eye. He bit his lip hard, and forced his tears back. "I won't cry mum. Even if I am only a low half-demon, and everyone hates me, and dad doesn't notice me, and your not here. Even if I don't have any friends. I'll grow strong. And someday, I'll rule out this stupid thought that half-demons are curs!"
Minato pricked her ears up. Slowly, she lifted her face. Her long, lilac hair had collected in a pile at the bottom of her feet. The wind blew her hair gently along the grass behind her. Her lilac eyes sparkled. "Someone is calling me…" She heard the frantic pattering of feet along the ground. "Hime-sama (Princess)! Please don't go out of the castle alone! If anything were to happen to you, how would we tell your father?" Minato swiftly turned heel and strode of with quick steps, her nails suddenly growing to the length of a tree, and sliced at the iron bars of the gate wall, showing her disapproval. The bars, sliced in five different places, slid down onto the ground.
