Child of Lust and Loss

by nattyzeenha

(Full Summary inside) A child who is not youkai, not human, and not hanyou. A being created by the strongest of two worlds, a whole new creature created out of pure youki and reiki, whose whole existence threatens the threads of life as they've known it. The fruit of a brief encounter fueled by unearthly lust bestowed upon a miko and a taiyoukai by the kami themselves. (SESSKAG)R&R

1. Prologue

Disclaimer: I do not owe Inuyasha and any related characters. I was also somewhat inspired by a Broadway musical called SPRING AWEKENING (and a few others, to be honest), and will, for that, quote significant lines as they have bred the chapters.

Summary: As a disease cast by Naraku plagues humanity after his death, Kagome finds herself allied to a very driven taiyoukai, whose ward lies moribund, victim to said illness. The quest to the cure, however, leads the two opposite beings to a brief encounter fueled by unearthly lust bestowed upon them by the very source of their answer. Afraid of the consequences of what they've done, Kagome flees and is not seen again – until six years after, when new circumstances bring her, and the child she gave birth to, to the Feudal Era once more.

Prologue

"There's a part I can't tell about the darkness I know well."

Naraku had long fallen for good. And in his end, like with all the things in our world, there was a beginning. The fabric of time had been disturbed, for the hanyou was to have had more time when mortals took the matter in their fragile hands, leaving his soul to then wander half way through this world and hell. His time had not come, and yet, he could no longer live. The ghost of what had once been a soul – Onigumo's soul, no matter how hard the creature Naraku became had tried to deny that, in life – was left to stray in what could, should and would happen. Some part of conscience remained with the spirit, guiding it from the line to hell to his own path of wicked revenge. One last breath of dread and sorrow. That's what he'd get for the time he'd been deprived of. He could no longer interact with the physical world – and lamentably was restricted by such bounds in his petty attempt of destruction. But he found he could, nonetheless, cast his soul in the world and fuse it with the weak ones. He could spread his wickedness, his darkness, and kill from inside out all he could reach. And so he did. And amongst the few people he could eventually merge into, there was a little human girl running wild in a meadow under the wise, stoic gaze of her silver-haired, golden eyed taiyoukai protector. A strange sight, indeed. Lovely, all the same.

AN: This is just the prologue and summary of this story that I came up with. It has a long more to it, but I can't tell right now without giving most of the fun away. If you like the idea, though, let me know! I intend to post a chapter each day, though length might variate.
