Red Riding Wolf
Kagome

"Werewolf!" A villager shrieked into the still air of the night. Soon, dozens more shouts erupted from the village of Edo. People, men, woman, and children, ran around in fear and confusion, screaming about something they know nothing of.
It sickened the silhouette standing on the hill outside the town.
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
A girl sat in the top of the highest tree on the outskirts of the village. She turned her face up to the falling snow, her red cloak a stark contrast to the pure white of the flakes. The bare limbs of the trees made her visible to anyone who cared to look for her. No one did. No one cared. They all lived in fear, and so no one had time to think of the odd girl that came in the shape of Kagome.
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
She walked in the center of the street, her cloak making it seem as if her feet didn't touch ground. All around her, people bustled and ran to gather their children and supplies. It was dusk, and the town was hurrying to hide away in their insufficient little houses. All but one raven-haired, green-eyed, crimson-clad woman. She drifted through town, getting uneasy stares and unnerved whispers thrown her way.
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
In the dead of night, while the village people were cowering in their houses in pitiful fear, a blood-red cloak could be seen drifting through the town center. It moved toward the sacrifice ring, where a young piglet sat shaking in fear.
The next morning, the only thing the villagers seen were torn ropes, and no pig.

Disclaimer-As much as I'd like to keep Sesshomaru, Miroku, Kouga, and Inuyasha (in that order) all to myself, I'm afraid I don't own Inuyasha or co.
