A Demon's Heart
Inu-Yasha stares into the morning sky. Still him and the rest of the team search for the rest of the Shikon no Tama. As he watched the clouds move he was interrupted by Kagome.
"Inu-Yasha you don't look so good," she says in a concern tone.
"Thanks you're always so polite" he says sarcastically.
Tears come to her eyes, "Do you hate me for caring so much!"
Inu-Yasha backs up. He never meant to make her cry. But it seems he always does. As he went to say he was sorry a sharp pain came from behind his eyes. Before it all went black he sees Kagome, Miroku, Sango, and Shippo with frightened looks on there faces as he falls to the ground.
---- Flash Back ----
Leaves Russell and twig creak beneath the girl's leg. A demon with half demon ears runs through the forest of Inu-Yasha. It was two dark for her to see even if she was a dog demon. She can hear the men hunting her getting closer.
"Spear the demon! Find that dog! What ever you do!" The men of the village scream.
She then sees a man sleeping next to a tree. Or at least it looked like he was sleeping. She decides to hide in his haori.
The men rush up to the site that she disappeared from.
"What does this girl look like again, Sir?" asks on of the men to the leader of the group.
"This dog demon has long black hair, with half demon ears, golden eyes, her skin is white. That is the last time I tell you!" the leader screams.
The poor demon sits in the cloak in fear of the men finding her or the man she is with. She starts to shake.
"She isn't here. She probably broke her leg and fell of the cliff over there. A 6 year old demon couldn't live from a fall like that over there. Let's go."
When the men leave she goes to get out. She brushes the tears from her eyes and goes to grab a branch near the man's shoulder.
'That's not a branch! It's an arrow!'
---- End Flashback----
Inu-Yasha eyes open from the frightening dream he had. He sees Shippo leaning over him.
"INU-YASHA! You're okay!" Shippo screams.
Kagome grabs Inu-Yasha and hugs him tight but quickly let's go blushing.
"You scared us to death! What happened?!" she asks him.
Inu-Yasha just sits there. 'That girl was in the forest I was pinned to stay in for 50 year. That was me next to that tree! I was the man. That girl hid with me. But why am I seeing it?'
"We got to see Kaede," Inu-Yasha announces.
At Kaede's Hut
"Yes Inu-Yasha, I know of the girl you speak of. Her name was Sinubi Herotaski. A young demon. The villagers treated her badly for her ears where half demon. I was one of them. Well, one day the demon was accused of killing all the cattle. So that night the village men went to kill her. They burned her hut down killing her parents, but she got away. They followed her into the forest and lost her. Days later it was found that a pack of wolf demons killed the cattle. I use to see her with you everyday. She would sit in front of the tree and talk to you about how her day went. Once, a village baby horse got loose and I went to the forest as I looked I saw her sleeping at your feet. She would continually tried to pull Kikyo's arrow out of you, but always failed. Well, it she was about 8 that she was found by a girl and took her to live with her. Every so often she came by. She is probably around 15 at least in her demon years," she explains.
----In a village not far from the Village of Kaede----
"Oh, Sinubi you finally where asked to be married!" says a girl.
"Yes Ritsuki. Ryo is a sweet man. Once you are 15 you will probably be asked to be married," she says smiling.
"I am 14!" she yells.
"Oh. Well, there is someone I must visit before I am to be wed."
"Oh, Inu-Yasha. Okay, be back soon though! Lunch is soon!"
As Sinubi rushes to the forest of Inu-Yasha she remembers Inu-Yasha's faces. How she missed it. She couldn't wait to tell him the news.
When she gets to the tree she stops. 'HE'S GONE! Has the spell broke free?! Where is he! I must meet him!'
Then she smells something in the air. 'INU-YASHA?!?!'
