The leader of the Dog Demon Tribe was looked down upon for some time, due to mating with a human village girl. Though other demons in the tribe sneered at her, especially the leader's son Sesshomaru, she was still happy with her new life in the tribe. It was when the demons found out that she was pregnant with the leader's child that they became furious.
Sesshomaru was the one to confront his father about the atrocity. He had broken the laws of the Dog Demon Tribe by even being with a human, but now he was going to be the father of her child. He demanded she be banished from the tribe, but the leader wouldn't let that happen, not while he was alive.
When the baby was born, the other demons had looks of disgust when their leader had introduced the baby boy; a half-demon named Inuyasha.
Though most of the demons at least tolerated the obnoxious child, Sesshomaru wanted nothing to do with him. He refused to even believe that half-breed was his sibling. Even with his glares to the child, Inuyasha would always flash a toothless smile to him.
When Inuyasha was about five years old, the tribe leader was murdered on a trip to a Northern tribe. The news reached them about a week after the incident, when someone from the Northern tribe found his body on the pathway. Since Inuyasha was still a child, Sesshomaru took the place of his deceased father.
In the tribe meeting, Sesshomaru announced that his father was dead, and he had taken his place. He then said that Inuyasha and his mother were to be banished for breaking the laws of the Dog Demon Tribe.
The two of them were given their belongings and forced out. Even though they had nowhere to go, Inuyasha's mother walked on with her child.
Alas, not even a week later, she was murdered by some thieves. Inuyasha managed to grab their belongings and run away before he met the same fate, climbing up a tree to hide.
What will happen to this now parentless child, left alone in a world of demons and murderous thieves?
