Oddly enough, I'm writing a story on a character I don't like much, well actually, her sister to be correct. Enjoy it anyway, for I've got many tricks planned for my newest story…

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha the series or anything. That all belongs to Rumiko Takahashi...and she did not make Keame, I did. That means I own Keame and this plotline...

Arrow 1:
Powerful Miko, Eldest Sister

A young girl with raven hair ran down the hills of the seemingly endless emerald grass. Her stature could state that she was about the age of twelve. Dressed in a smaller version of the village's miko clothes, she beamed merrily as she slid down the hill she was standing on. This girl was Kikyo.

"Oh, hello, Kikyo!" greeted a woman who was about a foot and a couple of inches taller than her. She also dressed in the red-and-white miko clothes; she carried a basket full of herbs for remedies. This woman looked like an older, slightly similar version of Kikyo, and to top that off, she carried a bow and a quiver of arrows on her shoulder.

"Hello, sister!" Kikyo replied happily, beaming at her. "I found those other herbs near here for you!" She held up another basket full of the herbs, and Kikyo's older sister smiled on her gently.

"Thank you, Kikyo. Now, let's go back to the village and get some food, okay?" Kikyo nodded, and the two set off towards the village. Arriving near the edge of the busy home they lived in, the townspeople began to greet them. One in particular, an old, grizzled woman, approached them holding a basket of wet clothes.

"Welcome back, Keame." Keame smiled at the wise woman before her.

"Thank you, Suza. I hope work is not giving you those backaches."

"I believe it may not be the work, but rather the kids themselves!' laughed the old lady before she left the two. Keame and Kikyo entered the hut they called their home and was greeted by the sight of their familiar surroundings. Keame sat on the wooden area and began to take the herbs out, examining them by sunlight. Kikyo had fetched some water and placed it in a bucket next to her, the liquid glinting in the natural light.

"Thank you, Kikyo," Keame told her. Kikyo sat next to Keame, helping with the classification of the herbs. She pointed which was which so that Keame could place them into the ordered groups; Keame did this in order to test Kikyo's skills on the subject of the herbs. At last, the two were done, and Keame fetched an extra bow and quiver of arrows.

"Are we going to shoot arrows again?' Kikyo inquired, staring at the extra items.

"Yes we are, Kikyo. I spotted another tree that's better than the last one, and I think we can get some good practice in for you." Keame strolled out towards the area, watching as Kaede, her youngest sister, run by her in a frenzy. She giggled as she caught up with the other children, tagging them in an old style of "tag" and "hide-and-go-seek". Keame handed Kikyo her arrow and quiver and crossed into the forest at the edge of the village. The foliage above their heads blocked sunlight, causing the ground to be strewn with light splatters of light yellow. The dirt path shuffled, kicking up dust underneath them as the animals scurried out of their way. Birds called merrily in the treetop branches, singing their peaceful song of mirth, the stray chirps full of laughter.

"Sister, is this world really that corrupt? The birds seem so happy." Keame gazed down at her sister, hoping she didn't have to say the answer. She wished she could shield the young girl and her sister away from everything, all the lies, the pain…but she couldn't. Her chocolate eyes stared at Kikyo for a moment.

"Kikyo…," she started after a long moment of walking and silence, "Don't worry on matters like that. Just try to live your life as an ordinary woman when you grow up someday, okay?"

"Alright…"

"Now, let's go shoot some arrows! You remember how to notch it, right?"

"Yes," Kikyo replied, notching the arrow onto the bow. She raised it up and held it steady, aiming it. Letting go of the string, she fired the arrow and it imbedded itself onto the tree, right in the middle. Keame smiled at her younger sister, seeing how good she had gotten from the last year of training with arrows.

"Good job!" she commented, "You hit it right on the mark. You'll become a great archer someday, Kikyo." Kikyo smiled at her accomplishment. Keame's eyes widened and she hurried to push Kikyo down.

Slash!

Something sharp cut through the foliage and branches of the trees, sending a giant wush of air. Kikyo screamed in surprise at the ambush attack.

"Darn it…I lost my prey on the first strike…," a demon from high above told himself, staring at the two girls with fixated grey eyes. It was an eagle humanoid demon with impressive brown feather and wings. His hair was made of the many feather's that lined his own body. His hands held claws sharp and deadly, and his talons, that replaced his feet, shined with a lethal gleam. He let loose a shrill whistle and a flock of eagle demons appeared out of nowhere.

"S-Sister Keame?" Kikyo asked, noticing her sister's seemingly calmer demeanor.

"Do not stray far from me, Kikyo," she ordered, still looking at the demon. "This won't be long." Though she was terrified she also couldn't help but smile inside. She was going to see her sister fight, a true feat she marveled!

Well, end the first chapter. I hoped you enjoyed it, and please review! I know it's short, I'll try and expand the next chapter longer.
