My True Self
A Twilight and InuYasha crossover
Prologue
About 3 things I was absolutely positive.
First, Edward was a vampire.
Second, there was a part of him, and I didn't know how potent that part might be, that thirsted for my blood
And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
…
Uh, no. That may be the "Twilight" that you all saw and fell head over heels with, but it's not the right one. No, this is my story. This story is full of danger, adventure, death, and horror.
It's too late now, you have to read this story from start to finish, if you ever want to get out alive, and get back to your world.
Where are my manners? Now, let's just start by me telling you a little about myself, and who, and what I really am.
To tell it short, I'm a demon. Not an "anti Christ" or "I hate crucifixes" kind, but a simply, very powerful shape shifter. The exact term for my kind, is "Inu Yokai" or "Dog Demon".
Where I am originally from, Feudal Japan, I am known as "Arashi, The Great Dog Demoness of the Northern Lands.
I am the last in a long line of pure Dog Demons, the last because of my elder brother, Sesshomaru.
Our father was known as Inu No Taisho, The Great Dog Demon of the Western Lands.
In order to keep the long line of Dog Demons going, my father was betrothed to Sohi, my mother, the Great Dog Demoness of the Southern Lands.
Sesshomaru was the first born, therefore the heir to the Western Lands. He was born, in human years, approximately 100 years before me, Arashi.
Just before I was born, my older brother, Sesshomaru, had rebelled against my mother, and left her, leaving her to grieve for another child.
But then, just a few years later, on the night of a great wind storm, I was born, and my mother named me Arashi, after the storm.
In the 140 years that I lived with my mother, I was very close with my father, Inu No Taisho. He blessed me greatly, and whenever I was sad, he always had some way of cheering me up again.
I guess you could say I was "Daddy's Little Girl" or whatever humans call it.
But all of my happy childhood came to an end, about when I turned 200 years old, when he met a human named Izayoi.
My father had battled a fierce demon known as Ryukotsusei, and it took all of my father's strength to simply imprison him in a stone statue.
While my father was still greatly wounded, he heard that his new "human wife", Izayoi, was about to give birth, and she was in distress.
When Inu No Taisho arrived at her village, he saw that it was being attacked by thieves, and when he went to rescue Izayoi, and the new born baby, InuYasha, he was caught in a battle with a human, that loved Izayoi.
During the fight, Izayoi escaped with InuYasha, while the building set on fire, and the human, and my father died inside.
When Sesshomaru and I heard of this, we both were ashamed to call Inu No Taisho our father, and we shunned Izayoi and InuYasha.
Sesshomaru went on hating Izayoi and InuYasha, but, however, I could not.
After all, InuYasha WAS my half brother, and WAS the last born before my father died.
Since Sesshomaru and I never really got along, InuYasha was all that was left of my father, that I could hang onto.
So, about 10 years later, I gathered my pride, and paid a visit to Izayoi and InuYasha. There, I offered my assistance in taking care of InuYasha.
I would never tell anyone this, but, I will tell you, whoever is reading this. Since I was a child, I always wanted to be a mother. THERE! I SAID IT!
Now back to the story…
After 50 years of taking care of InuYasha, Izayoi fell ill, and died, leaving me alone, to care for InuYasha.
By now, he was 60 years old in human years, but about 10 or 11 in demon years. He aged much faster than a regular demon, but slower than a normal human.
Another 40 years went by quickly, and InuYasha was old enough to take care of himself.
I knew when one day, he came back, all happy, smiley, and love struck.
He told me that he was in love with Kikyo, a young priestess, who guarded the legendary Skikon No tama.
When I tried convincing him that falling in love with a priestess was not a good idea, we got in a fight, and I left, vowing never to return to InuYasha again.
In the next 100 years that I spent on my own, I went in search of my birthright.
Tenseiga had been given to Sesshomaru, and Tetsusaiga was nowhere to be found, I set off to find it, but instead, came across a different sword, known as Sounga.
Sounga, the sword of hell and world conquest, was Inu No Taisho's 3rd and most powerful sword, much better than Tetsusaiga, the sword of earth and death, or Tenseiga, the sword of heaven and life.
The moment my hand touched Sounga, the evil aura around the sword disappeared, and the sword pulsed in my hand.
Sounga was then therefore, my birthright, and I carried it with pride and respect.
Over the next 50 years or so, I was battling demons when I needed to, and once in a while, transforming into my true form to either fight a powerful demon that I came across, or to simply fly through the air, to clear my head.
Then, one day, after being greatly injured with a demon named Rykoku, I came across the Bone Eaters Well, and with much weakness and fatigue, I fell in.
When I awoke, I was in a different world, known as the 21st Century, over 600 years into the future.
In the time I spent there, I realized that there were no more demons, and that I stuck out in this world like a sore thumb.
So, I used a spell that I had learned from a Wicken, and turned myself into a human. And later on, I moved to a place called Forks, Washington, where I met a vampire named Edward Cullen.
Well, you've made it this far, so keep reading! Or I will personally come out of this story, and use my poison claws on you!
