AN: this is the first fanfic I've ever written or even thought of, so let meh know if it's good or bad, ok?

Chapter 1 - A New Ally

He looked out at the bloody scene. Youkai were spread across the forest floor. 'Did I actually do this?' He was covered in blood, cuts and dirt. Both daggers he held were drenched with the youkai blood. "NARAKU!!!! WHERE EVER YOU ARE, I'LL FIND YOU!!!" He was breathing heavily, still looking around. " I have to find you. And when I do, you'll die."

Kagome and Inuyasha were arguing yet again. "Hurry up, bitch!!" Inuyasha called to Kagome. "Hold on!!!!" she yelled back. "And stop calling me a bitch all the time!!!!"
"Feh." Inuyasha just turned his back and walked to Sango and Miroku.
"Why are you so mean to Kagome?" Miroku asked.
"Because I can be. And if you've gotta problem with it, take it up with me." Inuyasha was two inches away from Miroku's face. Miroku backed into Sango trying to escape Inuyasha's evil glare.
"OK, that's enough you two." She said in a lazy voice. Inuyasha was about to protest, but the scent of blood filled his nostrils. He began walking in the direction of the stentch.
"What's wrong, Inuyasha?" Kagome asked in a concerned voice.
"I smell blood...a lot of blood." He looked at everyone and motioned for them to follow him. They arrived at the most disturbing image they had seen in a while. It was a youkai bloodfest.
"What the hell happened here?" Miroku was staring at the sight. "Who could have done this?" As if to answer his question, a figure stepped out of the nearby bushes. He didn't appear to be older than maybe fifteen. He had blood, bruises and cuts all over his body. He looked as if he'd been through hell. The young hanyou looked somewhat like Inuyasha. He had the same kind of ears but he had short hair. He gripped two daggers with white knuckles. Kagome could sense a jewel shard coming from him.
"Inuyasha, he has a jewel shard." She pointed to his neck. He was wearing it as a necklace. Inuyasha ran up to the boy with his Tetsuiga raised. He was inches away from the boys face when the blade suddenly stopped.
"Wha.." Inuyasha was standing there, staring at the young hanyou. "How the fuck did you do that?!" The hanyou had his dagger raised in front of the sword. He had a crazy look in his eyes.
"If you value your life, back the fuck off." The boy never looked away from Inuyasha.
"Such big talk for such a little guy." Miroku said in a taunting voice.
"And what's with the language?" Sango asked, glaring at him. He was still staring at Inuyasha.
"I watched helplessly as my parents died. I was tortured for three years by Naraku. I escaped two days ago and stole a shard from him. I was pursued by his servants and I killed them." He pointed to the bodies. "If that isn't a good enough reason to be a little upset, I don't know what is."
Kagome had tears streaming down her face. She ran over to him and embraced him in a tight hug. "You poor thing. We had no idea that something that horrible happened to you." She was still hugging him. He gratefully returned the hug. The wild look in his eyes disappeared.
"It's been a long time since I've been hugged," He tightened his grip around her and began to cry. Inuyasha was staring at them. He gave a small "feh" noise and sheathed Tetsuiga.
"So, what's your name, kid?" Inuyasha asked.
He released Kagome and answered, "It's Jin Tsukamoto." He extended his hand to Inuyasha. Inuyasha shook it briefly and released it. Jin reached down and picked up his daggers. He sheathed them on his waist. He looked around at everyone and asked, "May I join you on your quest?"
Inuyasha was about to say "no", but Kagome elbowed him in the ribs. "Ow, bitch!! What was that for?!" He rubbed the sore spot and cursed under his breath.
"Of course," Sango replied, "but it will be dangerous. Are you willing to fight for your life?"
The cold look came back to his eyes. "I'll do whatever I have to as long as I can see Naraku die." After his statement, there was a brief silence. Miroku was the first to speak.
"Well, you heard the man. Looks like he'll be traveling with us." Miroku looked at Jin and introduced himself. "I'm Miroku. It's nice to meet you." Miroku smiled down at him.
"Likewise," Jin then looked over at Sango. "and who might you be?"
"I'm Sango the Demon Exterminator." She shook his hand.
"I'm Kagome. And this is Inuyasha." She pointed to the hanyou. It was about midnight. They were walking through the dark forest. A few minutes had past when they stopped at a clearing.
"I say we rest here for the night. It's pretty late, and we all look exhausted." Kagome put the pack she was carrying down and pulled her sleeping bag out and laid it across the floor. Everyone else (except Inuyasha and Jin) did the same. Inuyasha had jumped up into a tree and sat on a limb. Jin propped himself up against a tree and drifted into a restless sleep.
