My Hero and a Flute
Chapter 1
Kagome woke to the sounds of birds chirping. Her sleeping bag was wet from the rain they had last night and her clothes were drenched. She sat up to see everyone else sleeping, but no Inu Yasha. Since the death of Kikyo he had been distant.
Shaking the thought of Kikyo from her head, she stood and folded her sleeping bag into her yellow backpack. She yawned and stretched.
'Where was Inuyasha ?' she thought. The sun had just risen so it was still grey out.
She began to walk through the woods. Suddenly a black flash went over her head.
« Inuyasha ? » She asked. No one answered. « Inuyasha ? » She yelled more this time. She quickly twirled around but found herself standing infront of a demon. A half demon. A female. She had gold eyes. The same as Inuyasha's. She had long black hair and black dog ears.
« Did you just say Inuyasha ? » The girl asked. Her voice sounded like Sesshomaru's.
« Ye-yes. Who are you ? » Kagome asked.
« I am InuMao. Inuyasha's twin sister. » Twin sister. Inuyasha had a twin sister ?
« KAGOME ! » Inuyasha's voice rung out through the forest.
« Inuyasha ? » InuMao whispered.
Inuyasha suddenly came through the trees.
« Are you okay ? I was looking for you….. Don't go off like that, you could get ….. » Inuyasha paused as he turned to InuMao beside him. He grabbed the tilt of the tetseiga. « You. »
« Inuyasha ! I have been looking for you everywhere ! » She smiled and ran to hug him. But Inuyasha stayed limp.
« You. »
« Aren't you happy to see me, Inuyasha ? »
« Why are you trying to find me ? You said you didn't want me as your brother, and you wanted to help Sesshomaru. » InuMao let go of Inuyasha.
« That. That was along time ago. »
« And you abonded mother and I. Left us. Do you know how much that hurt her ! »
« Inuyasha. Just let me travel with you, I've heard so much about you and how cool you've become ! I'm trying to kill Naraku too, he killed my bestfriend, Miyaka. And also…. »
« Fine. Shut up. Let's go. » He grabbed Kagome's hand. Kagome turned her head to look at InuMao. She was following them. When InuMao caught Kagome staring she gave a half smile. Kagome smiled back.
When they got back to camp. Everyone was up and around a fire pit cooking fish.
« Kagome ! » Sango smiled. She motioned for her to sit down next to her. « Where did you go ? »
« I just went for a little walk. To clear my head. » She smiled to Sango. Sango's features softened and turned to give a worried glance to Miroku. Everyone knew she didn't go to clear her head, but to find Inuyasha.
« Give me an introduction, » InuMao whispered to Inuyasha. She whispered so that people would hear her.
« No. » Inuyasha growled back.
« Um. Inuyasha ? » Sango asked. « Who is that ? » Inuyasha rolled his eyes and sat in his cross legged position.
« This is InuMao. My younger sister. » When he said younger InuMao, gave a dirty look. « Well twin. I'm older by two seconds. »
« Hello InuMao. We 've never heard of you before. » Sango smiled.
« Well I don't think you would have. Inuyasha practically hates me. »
« Oh. Well. Anyways, it's nice to know that he has other siblings besides Sesshomaru. » InuMao blinked at this remark. .
« Should we start going ? » she asked. She rummaged through her cloak.
« Yes I agree. » Kagome said. She stood her yellow bag on her back. She gave the rest of her friends a sharp glance, and they all stood and followed InuMao.
At dinner Inuyasha and Shippo went to get fish, Sango and Miroku went to get fire wood which left InuMao and Kagome to themselves. And Kagome wanted to know the real story.
« InuMao » Kagome asked.
« Yes ? » she replied. She turned to face Kagome and she saw from the look in her eyes what she was going to ask. « Do you really want to know ? » Kagome nodded.
« Have a seat. It's long. » And with that InuMao started her story.
