Inuyasha: The Life I Once Lived

By: Lisa Knott

A long long time ago, back in the fuedal era. There lived two demon children. Sheshomaru the oldest of the demon children, was the oldest and was only able to compete with his younger brother Inuyasha. Inuyasha was a half demon, who later on in life fell in love with a woman named Kikyo. Growing up as a child Inuyasha thought that love was just a whole bunch of nonsence. Until one day he ran into Kikyo dealing with a demon trying to get the sacred jewel from her village. Kikyo was the one who was able to purify this jewel of great power. Inuyasha was very afraid of her at first but when she fell to the ground, he ran up to her to make sure that she was ok. When a group of people from Kikyo's village came looking for her Inuyasha just got up and ran away without finishing her off. As a few days had passed Kikyo and Inuyasha fell deeply in love with one another. Kikyo had asked Inuyasha to become a full human so her life would not be in any more danger than what it was. Inuyasha had agreed to become a full human for Kikyo so they could be together for ever. The very next day had come and Kikyo was injured by Inuyasha who was really Naroku, the evil demon. Kikyo thought it was really Inuyasha and said that she hated him for the rest of her life. By the tree of ages was Inuyasha waiting for Kikyo who came and called him a half demon after she promised not to call him that anymore. Inuyasha did not realize that the impersonation of Kikyo was none other than Naroku. Inuyasha ran up to her village and stole the sacred jewel from a hut which it lays purified and awaiting to be used. Kikyo arrived just as Inuyasha was leaving and struck him with an arrow that sealed him to the tree of ages. She did not kill him but she put him into an eternal slumber.

Now a few eras later a young girl was born named Kagome. Kagome was a high school girl who fell into the well while trying to get her cat. When Kagome was born, she had the sacred jewel within her and that was the way she was able to travel back to the fuedal era to help Inuyasha find the sacred jewel after it is broken into pieces. As the time passes and Kagome and Inuyasha travel together and get into so much demon fights for the jewel, they make some friends along the way. Sango the demon slayer, Maroku the monk, and Shippo the fox demon. Once the year had passed, Inuyasha had fallen in love with Kagome and didn't say a word to her. Kagome however had also fallen in love with Inuyasha had would not say anything to him but show it to Inuyasha in a different way. She has already tried to tell him that she loved him but didn't know how to say it at all. Inuyasha has done the same thing but doesn't know what to do if he can't say a word to her. It was late into the night and it was time for Kagome to return to her time so she could catch up on her studies at school.Inuyasha usually can't waite for her to return to continue their quest for the jewel shards and try to tell each other that they are in love but how to do it. As the night got closer, Kagome got ready to go home until a week had passed and she was all caught up in her studies. Until then Inuyasha and the rest of the gang waite for her humble return.

The End
