My first Inuyasha ff. Hope you like it! Sorry it's kind of short - I'll try and make them longer, buts its kind of difficult - but I'll try! ( i dont think theres any cussing in this one...if so, and it has a * by it, that means to use ur imagination on a cuss word that would fit - im not really one for cussing, but occasionally, it'll slip - but not much...) Dont forget to review!
Disclaimer: I dont own Inuyasha - but I do own Takita( the demon girl - POV is hers)
I walked through the forest, my hair flowing freely behind me. Sniffing around me, I realized I was being followed, but I kept going anyway. I waited for the perfect moment to strike, walking delicately as to make sure I didn't step on any traps.
"3…2...1," I thought, and then lashed out, a purple whip appearing from my hand. I swung my body around and struck the demon that was following me, who at the moment had been hiding in the underbrush. It was quick work, and when I landed, I saw it was only a small pitiful fox-demon.
"Are you kidding me!?" I exclaimed," I wasted my energy on that?!" I screamed in frustration, and then stomped off angrily, leaving the carcass behind me for the next demon that comes along. I had no use for dead bodies, they only slow one down. As I continued on my journey, I came upon more and more demons, killing them without effort just as I did with the small fox-demon. Some I actually got to use more power with, which I was glad for – I was tired of only using a small amount of my powers.
"Whats the use of having power if you don't use it?" I thought to myself, as I washed my hands in a stream, trying to get the stench of blood off of them. I sighed inwardly, and then stood up. As I looked across the stream, I saw a wolf staring at me. I stared back, not blinking, not moving. Soon, it blinked, and backed off, running away.
"Pitiful," I said under my breath, thinking," Where's a fight when you need one?"
I walked back into the forest, not really following any trails, just going where I wanted to go. So what if I crossed into someone's territory – I didn't care – never did, never will. I came across a little pack of demons, struggling to survive, and one came up to me.
"Please- help us," he begged, getting on his knees.
"Your pathetic," I sneered, kicking him away from me, and the others quickly hid," You call yourselves demons!? Ha!" I walked away, not looking back – even though I didn't look back, I knew the others where running to the others side, making sure he was alright. I spat in disgust, and rolled my eyes.
"True demons don't care about others," I thought, remembering my past. I had been abandon when I was only ten years old, and now I was six hundred and ten. All this time, I've learned to live on my own, and that's what a true demon does. No trust for anyone, no feelings toward someone, no cares in the world – that's what I have lived believing all my life. No one was going to change my mind after all these years.
As I walked around, the sky began darkening, and I smiled to myself.
"Darkness is a demons playground," I smiled, licking my lips. The forest is a big place, and sometimes a stupid human gets lost in it, and that's its biggest mistake. I walked for a couple hours, becoming irritated with each step.
"Don't tell me the humans got smart all of a sudden," I scowled, but then I heard a little girls' voice.
"Master Jaken?!" she exclaimed, and I could tell she was lost from this…Jaken fellow. I jumped up into the nearest tree, and quietly jumped from tree to tree. Soon, I saw the little girl, wondering around on her own. My nails itched the tree branch, my heart racing in anticipation.
"Master Jaken?!" she called again into the darkness, and I saw her shiver. It was a breezy night, but who cared. The breeze just carried her scent to me, making me even more excited. I prepared myself, and counted down in my head.
"5…4…3…2…1…" Then I jumped, and landed just inches from her. She screamed, and fell backwards, but as she got a better look at me, she became calmer.
"You're just another demon," she said, getting back up," If you dare touch me – Lord Sesshomaru will come after you!" I hissed in fury at getting threatened by a mere mortal.
"How dare you!" I exclaimed, my nails glowing green with a poison," I don't usually kill mortals – but you just angered me, so you get to be one of the few I kill!" I launched myself at her, but before I got to her, a small green imp stepped in front of me, and I jumped back, startled.
"Master Jaken!" the girl exclaimed happily, hiding behind him.
"Are you alright Rin?" he asked, keeping a wary eye on me. As much as I hate being threatened by a mortal – I hated demons that saved the mortal who threatened me even more.
"I'm fine Master Jaken," the girl, Rin, told him.
"Who do you think you are?!" the imp, Jaken demanded, looking at me.
"Don't talk to me like that!" I hissed," I am skilled beyond your dreams imp! Make enemies with me – and you die!"
"I've been threatened many times like that before!" Jaken exclaimed," And by a demon of greater standing then you will ever be!" My eyes widened and my jaw dropped; then my eyebrow started twitching.
"I cant believe this," I thought, jumping into the darkness, turning my back on the imp and the girl," She has the urge to call me 'just another demon', and then threaten that if I touch her, some Lord whats-his-name will come after me, then the imp has the nerve to save her, and then tell me that he's been threatened many times by a demon of a higher standing then I'll ever be?!" I shook my head, clearing it of all the thoughts, and then turned back to them.
"So – you two think that by insulting me that I'll just let you walk away?" I asked, incredulously," Think again." I jumped at them again, but right before my poison-clawed hand could touch them, I felt a rush of wind, and I was soon being held against a tree by some long-white-haired demon.
