Kagome was a normal little girl...Well if you call a 5yr-old wolf demon normal! One day her whole village was slaughtered and the lord of the Northern lands took her in. Until that is things took a turn for the worse.
Normal POV
Kagome was outside playing with her friends, some humans and some demons, when she smelled smoke. She looked in the direction of the village and saw a tower of smoke rising high above the sky. Her friends looked in the direction she was staring and gasped. Almost all of them took of running to the village, except for Kagome. She was in a state of shock just staring at the smoke when a thought hit her.
'Mother? Father?'
She burst into a run towards the village. When she got there she saw humans, and a few demons, on horses. Some were lighting houses on fire while others were waving swords around. Kagome saw that all round them where the villagers. They looked like they were sleeping but Kagome saw puddles of blood and gasped. She immediately hid behind a tree and listened.
"Do you have them?" Said a man that looked like he was the one in charge.
"Yes sir, some were a bit difficult but we took care of it."The man who spoke smirked and made a motion with his hand. Then a few men push a group of girls toward him.
Kagome immediately recognized them from he village. She searched through them looking for for her mother but she could see her. She was about to run toward the familiar faces when one of the younger woman noticed her. Her eyes widened and she started to mouth the word run over and over. Kagome hesitated but took one last look at them and ran. She ran to her super secret hiding spot.
She had found it one day while chasing frogs in the tall grass. It was a small cave by the river hidden by the tall grass, the place where she kept all her "Treasures" safe. She crawled in to the cave and wept in worry over her parents. That night she cried her self to sleep.
Small sun rays made their way through the grass in to the cave, waking Kagome up. 'Huh? Why am I in the hiding place?' She slowly recalled yesterdays events. She scrambled out of the cave and ran, with amazing speed, towards her home. She saw it burnt, but went in anyway. The first thing she saw was the corpse of a giant wolf on the floor. She sank to the ground, hugged the wolfs neck, and began to cry.
"Father I'm sorry. Please answer me. I'll be a good girl, so please answer me." She sat there crying for a minutes until she remembered her mother. She sniffed the air trying to find her. She wasn't in the house at all. Could those bad men have taken her? Kagome was assuming the worse when her ears perked up. She sat there for a moment totally quiet. Then got up and quickly made her way behind the house. She stopped, behind her house was her mother lying face up in a pool of blood.
"Kagome...Kagome...Kagome..."
"Mother I'm here. Are you alright?" Kagome kneeled down and took her mothers hand.
"Oh Kagome your alright! Thank goodness, I was so worried about you" She smiled softly.
"I'm sorry. But I'm alright. And your are gonna be too!" She buried her face in her mothers chest. "Mommy, fathers not waking up. So please don't fall asleep too. Ok?"
Her mother inhaled sharply. "I'm sorry Kagome. But your father and I love you very much you, know right?"
"Yes mommy, but-"
"No buts, Kagome I love you!" She hugged her.
"I love you too mother." She hugged back. After a few minutes her mothers grip lossend. Kagome looked down at her. Her eyes were closed and she was smiling.
"Mother?" She asked almost afraid. When she did not get a response she started to shake her mother. "No! Mother wake up! Please wake up!" Kagome sat there and cried.
Meanwhile
"Lord Akito the village is just down that hill." A servant pointed towards a small hill a few hards in front of them.
"I'll go ahead then." Said the lord. He steered his horse towards the hill and to the village.
Everywhere he looked there were dead bodies. He rode around the village searching for any who may have survived, but found none.
"Ok men I don't think there ar-" He stopped mid sentence and stood there, listening.
"Lord?"
"SHHH!" He steered his horse and took of again. He slowed as he reached a small burnt house. He made his way towards the back and the source of the noise. There he saw girl, no older than five, Crying over the body of a woman.
"Mother please wake up, I don't want to be left alone!" The lord took a step forward.
"Little girl? Is something wrong?" Though he said this softly he started Kagome, causing her to leap a few meters away. She quickly stepped back in front of her mother.
"Who are you?" She snarled. "Are you one of them?"
'Them? Oh, she must referring to the people whom destroyed the village.' For the first time the lord looked over the girl and noticed she was a demon or at least half demon.
"What is your name child?" He asked softly.
"Why should I tell you." She said more on the verge of tears than angry.
"Don t worry you can trust me. I am lord Akito and your name is?"Kagome's eyes widened then she quickly bowed.
"Sorry lord Akito I didn't know it was you. I am Kagome."
"It's alright Kagome. If you are all alone now why don't you come to live with me and my wife? We don't have any children of our own and it would be wonderful to have you." Kagome's eyes widened once more.
"Is it ok? Will that really be ok? But what of my parents and the villagers?"
"Don't worry. My men shall give them all proper burials."
"Ok then if it is alright, but before I go can I gather some things?"
"Of course child." Kagome kneeled down by her mother took a locket from around her neck and put it on her own. She then kissed her mothers cheek and was off to gather her other things.
'Good bye mother, Father. I will now leave this village and live with the lord and lady. Please watch over me.'
