Chapter 1: Inuyasha mets InuMaru
Inuyasha was leaning against the Sacred tree in Kagome's era with his arms crossed. He looked up at the branches of the tree seeing how beautiful the sunlight looked on the trees green summer leaves. He sighed softly before his dog ears twitched. He closed his golden eyes and focused on the sound of the wind making it's way though the tree's limbs. Just then the voice of Kagome pulled him out of relaxing. "What is it, now, Kagome?" The hanyou asked annoyed. "Will you go shopping with my mom for me? I got to catch up on my studies." Inuyasha closed his eyes again and leaned his head back against the bark. "What's the magic word?" A smirk appeared on his lips. "Please Inuyasha." Kagome said her temper flaring. "Sure I'll do it for ya, but you own me." Inuyasha said his arms falling to his sides with and jumping over the small fence surrounded the tree and ran towards the house. He made his way to the front door and slid it open and saw Ms. Higurashi standing there holding a blue baseball cap with a red bill. "Here you go." She said placing it on his sliver haired head hiding his ears. "Ready, dear?" Inuyasha nodded and walked beside her as they left the shrine.
~In Town at the Haru Dance Club~
A young man with long sliver hair in a high ponytail and soft kind brown eyes sat on a barstool on the stage with his guitar made of polished oak. His skin was of pure ivory and blue jagged birthmarks covered a portion of his cheeks under his eyes. He had a pair of puppy ears on top of his head hidden from view by the blue bandana on his head. His fingers were tipped with sharp yet gentle claws. He looked up at crowd of dancing people on the multi-colored floor by the bar, where his foster uncle, Kai, was filling a glass bottle full of sake for a customer. The young sliverette sat there waiting for something or someone to come into the club. He didn't know who or what was giving him a feeling of fullness not of the normal emptiness that he usually felt. Like the missing part of his soul was near. He placed his right hand on his sliver cross, that his foster mother gave him for his 7th birthday, gently gripping it his hand. "InuMaru, are you going to play?" Uncle Kai called from behind the bar. "Yes Uncle I will in a minute." The young man, now known as InuMaru, replied placing his guitar into the right playing position. Just then the door opened and his mother's old friend Ms. Higurashi and a boy with hair like his own wearing a red kimono with a matching hamaka and a baseball cap came in. Brown meet molten Gold. Something struck InuMaru in his soul as if the other half was filling up. This boy was his lost twin, he could feel it.
Inuyasha looked up as he entered the dance club and saw a boy that looked like him expect of the demonic markings on his cheeks. His hair was the same shade of sliver and his brown eyes danced with emotion. Surprise, Hope and an unknown one danced in the boy's eyes. Something shook him to his core like as if a missing piece of his soul was being put back. "Hello InuMaru." Ms. Higurashi said waving to the boy interrupting the hanyou's thoughts. "Hi Ms. H." The boy replied. Inuyasha blinked. InuMaru? That boy was a Inu* hanyou too? Inuyasha felt something in his soul telling him that InuMaru was his lost twin brother.
InuMaru tuned his guitar and a song popped into his head. He strummed a cord and began to play. And soon he began to sing.
You came down from heavens throne
This earth you formed was not your home
A love like this the world had never known
Inuyasha looked at InuMaru with surprise in his golden hues. His lost twin could sing and good too. He look over at Kagome's Mother and saw her talking to the bartender. His eyes went back on the other Inu-Hanyou, whom was about to sing again.
A crown of thorns to mock your name
Forgiveness fell upon your face
A love like this the world had never known
On the altar of our praise
Let there be no higher name
Jesus Son of God
You laid down your perfect life
You are the Sacrifice
Jesus Son of God
You are Jesus Son of God
InuMaru closed his eyes as he sang his heart pouring into the words. It felt so good to get the stress off of his chest.
You took our sin
You bore our shame
You rose to life
You defeated the grave
Love like this the world has never known
Inuyasha stood and listened to his brother's beautiful rich voice. His eyes glued on his lost twin. "Inuyasha." Ms. Higurashi said getting the hanyou teen's attention. "Ya, what?" Inuyasha asked softly. "Want to sit and watch with me?"
"Sure." The hanyou answered giving her a fanged smile. He sat down beside Kagome's mom and began to listen once more.
You took our sin
You bore our shame
You rose to life
You defeated the grave
A Love like this the world has never known
On the altar of our praise
Let there be no higher name
Jesus Son of God
You laid down your perfect life
You are the sacrifice
Jesus Son of God
You are Jesus Son of God
InuMaru sang as tears came to his eyes. He keep his eyes tightly shut trying to force the tears down. A lump began to form in his throat.
Be lifted higher than all
You've overcome
Your name be louder than any other song
There is no power that can come against your love
The cross was enough
The cross was enough
The cross was enough
The cross was enough
Inuyasha smelled the scent of tears coming off of his twin. InuMaru felt the tears flood his eyes and the lump increase in size. He bowed and ran off the stage and into a hallway. Every body, expect for a certain hanyou, just shrugged it off and went back to what they were doing. Inuyasha got up from his seat telling Ms. Higurashi that he need some fresh air and he ran out the front door and found his lost twin brother gripping the brick wall crying. "Hey you okay?" Inuyasha asked taking a few steps forward. A soft sobbed filled voice spoke back. "No I'm scared." Inuyasha took another few steps forward. "Afraid of what?" Inuyasha asked. "I'm scared that my mom is going to die soon." InuMaru cried with tears flowing down his face. InuMaru ran into the open arms of his lost older twin. Inuyasha wrapped his arms about his twin and held him to his heart like their mother did to him as a child. "It's going to be okay, InuMaru." Inuyasha said softly into his brothers know exposed ears. "What's your name, brother?" InuMaru said softly his crying slowly stopping. "Inuyasha." "Thank you, Inuyasha, my brother."
