Chapter One
Prologue
A lone figure stood on a battle field. Around her lye bodies of all shapes and sizes, all demons. Finally the dust settles but the wind continues to blow viciously. First you see a large mass of silver hair swirling around an unknown body. Then the figure turns and you can see the piercing red eyes of a young woman, around twenty- five years old in appearance. Her eyes are cold and harsh, showing no mercy and her face, although covered in blood, is beautiful, but just as icy as her eyes.
She's tall, reaching six foot, two inches, a large bust, small waist, flat stomach, tan skin, the perfect body. She has on a white spaghetti strap dress that reaches just past her knees. Sadly, the fight caused it to develop tears in several areas and is now stained by the crimson substance that covers the ground. She glares at the bodies, especially the ones that attempted to do inappropraite things to her.
She shook her head in disgust at the weaklings and walked off, as she was walking she spotted something moving behind a nearby bush. She walked over to it, fully intent on killing it. She swiped the shrubbery away and was met by big, innocent, golden eyes. She moved back slightly and discovered it was a frightened hanyou child. Apparently, everyone started the fight, just to capture the pup. She glares and says "This is what the fight was about, a hanyou pup? The hell? Who the hell hell are you?"
He sniffled, moving his silver locks out of his face and whispers "Inuyasha..." She studies him, he's incredibly small, and injured, probably only five years of age in demon years. Long silver hair, big golden eyes, and puppy ears on his head. She flicks one and he winces in pain. She smirks and says "Parents?" He peers up at her in fear from under his messy bangs "My Okaa is Lady Izayoi, and my Papa is Inu No Taisho." She keeps her calm demeanor and says "Standing?" He looks down and says "Mama is the Princess of the northern human lands, now the Lady of the Western demon lands, Papa is the Lord of the Western demon lands. My big brother, Sesshoumaru, is next in line, Lord of the Western demon lands, and I'm second in line."
She nods in acceptance and says "Well twerp, looks like you'll be hangin with me for a while. You're pretty far from home, be glad your royalty or I would have killed you." His eyes widen and he says "Who are you?" She stands straight and looks down at him "Kagome Higurashi, vampire royalty." His eyes widen even more and he asks "Ranking?" She looks at him from the corner of her eye "All you need to know is I'm vampire royalty. Ranking doesn't matter to a child. Now stay and be killed by a random demon or follow me and live. It's your choice."
She turns and starts walking away, he finally realizes she'll really leave him to die and jumps up running after her. Once he catches up he slows down to walk in step right behind her. She turns her head and looks at him over her shoulder before turning back around and he blushes lightly. He may be a child but he knows who's pretty and who isn't. This girl is definitely pretty. Maybe if he's good, she'll smile for him, or promise to visit, he could use a friend, and right now she's the closest thing he's got, even if she is alot older.
They walked for two days straight before he collapsed from exhaustion. She looked down at him considering leaving him behind, then changed her mind and lifted the small boy in her arms. He latched his hands onto the front of her dress and curled into a ball, using her chest as his pillow. She looked down at the small child cradled in her arms before walking once again. Over the past two days, all he had done was talk while she listened in silence. Apparently he really wants her to be his friend, no matter how cold she is, no matter how detatched, he just kept trying. When they stopped for food he even hugged her, something she wasn't used to. She hates to admit it but she may have developed a soft spot for this child. This stubborn, loud, pup.
He nuzzled her chest in his sleep and clutched her dress even tighter, as if to ensure, even in his sleep, that she's still there, watching over him. She ignores it and continues on. Turns out he was more tired than they thought since he spent the next three days asleep, being carried by Kagome. She arrived at Inu No Taisho's castle and shifted so Inuyasha was on her hip, and stared at all of the dog demons wandering inside of the gates. It probably wouldn't be smart to wakl in there carrying the Lord's msising child, but it wouldn't be smart to leave him to his own devices either. In the end it's smarter to take him straight to Inu No Taisho than it is to leave him to find his own way. She sighs thinking about the fight that's sure to ensue and Inuyasha blinks sleepily, letting out a tongue curling yawn. He looks around trying to remember what was going on then looked up at Kagome.
He remembered what happened and looked where she was staring and saw she got him home while he slept. He smiled and wrapped his arms around her neck in a hug. She looks down at him and then removes him from her arms down onto the ground before kneeling to his level, allowing him to wrap his tiny arms around her neck again. She figures he won't let go so hugs him back and asks "Do you want me to take you to your Papa, or leave you here?" He hugs tighter and says "Stay."
She nods and stands, lifting him into her arms once again to sit on her hip so she can swing him to her front easily if they try and steal him from her. She walks onto the property and everyone turns to look. As soon as the see Inuyasha with her they assume the worst and attack. She quickly swings him from her side into her arms and runs as fast as possible which is pretty fast. She dodges several attacks but still recieves minor cuts and bites. Somehow, she manages to get inside the castle with out killing any of the demons and to the throne room. She busts the door down and jumps straight up to Inu No Taisho and Lady Izayoi, who both look like they've seen better days, probably from their worrying.
She lands between the two seats in a kneeling position with her eyes closed before standing and opening them. She gently sets Inuyasha down in front of herself and Izayoi gasps before jumping up and hugging her son like there's no tomorrow, crying in pure joy and relief. Inu No Taisho follows soon after, embracing his mate and child, but sheds no tears. After their litle reunion they turn to look at her with gratitude. She observes how freely Inu No Taisho expresses his emotions and wonders why he bothers with things so useless.
He stands and reaches out a hand that she takes and briefly shakes. He smiles and says "Thank you for returning my son, he's been missing for a month. How long has he been with you? Oh, how rude of me, Inu No Taisho, and you are?" She just nods and says "Almost a week, and Kagome Higurashi." His eyes widen and he says "You mean The Kagome Higurashi? Vampire royalty, Kagome Higurashi? The girl who has killed countless demons and ended several demon wars in less than a day by killing each of the demons?" She nods and says "Yep, that's how I found the pup. Right after ending a recent demon war. Apparently, they were fighting over him."
Inu No Taisho nods "Would you like to stay here? You're welcome for as long as you want." She shakes her head and says "No, I should be getting home. However, I promised the pup I would visit him after he begged for the hundreth time, literally. I'll visit him, however, it may not be for a long time. Are you sure you want a vampire in your home? We aren't kind or merciful, you of all people should know that, you as well Izayoi."
They both looked down. It was true after all. Kagome's mother had killed Inu No Taisho's parents and her elder brother killed Izayoi entire family, she was lucky to make it out alive, actually if it wasn't for Inu No Taisho she would have died that day. She was even more powerful than her entire family put together so there's no telling what she could or would do. They both still hurt from that but Kagome had saved their child so they both nodded "We're sure." Inuyasha looked up at Kagome with a huge grin and said "Gome visit me?" She nodded and he laughed and hugged her legs saying "Gome visit me!" Both his parents smiled and Kagome just put her hand on his head. After he let go she nodded at them and turned, leaving the castle back to her own home, unsure if she could really keep her promise to Inuyasha.
Inuyasha looked up at his parents with tears in his eyes "Gome go bye- bye?" They nodded and watched as the tears spilled and he sat on the floor crying. His mother crouched down beside him, trying to comfrot him "Gome with come back, it just won't be for a while." His sobs lessened but he still cried. She had been his first friend and now she's gone. What's a child to do?
AN:yeah, yeah, i started a story yesterday but i thought of this one this morning, lately i've been big on vampires so don't worry, i'll get my three vampire stories finished before you know it. I still don't have inspiration for the other ones though. Also, no, Inuyasha isn't in love with Kagome, he's a little boy, he loves her as a friend, and she doesn't love him either, she just has a tiny soft spot for him since he's a child. I'm not perverted or disgusting like some people are by making a child and a twenty- five year old be in love and doing things they shouldn't. So if your into that sort of thing, this isn't the story for it. I actually have morals and dignity.
