Summary: A story about Inuyasha's childhood and the events leading up to his so-called betrayal to Kikyou. Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or its story.

Inuyasha's POV:

When I was 10, about 60 years ago, I was a small witty little boy constantly looking for new adventures. Sometimes i would accompany my father on his little "expeditions", but mainly I stayed at home with my mother helping around the house, doing ordinary things that a 10 year old would do. I didn't have any friends because for as long as I could remember I have been a half-demon. Yes, that's right, half demon. My mother was a human and my father was a full demon. All the kids in my village tormented me because they didn't want to hang out with someone who's "only" a half. So there I was, everyday sitting by the village's largest cherry tree, staring enviously as everyone laughed and shouted at their games. Every now and then, one of them would glance up at me and give me an evil smile. That was considered normal. My older brother, Sesshomaru, didn't make it any easier for me because he, strangely, was a full demon. Even though Sesshomaru, was the quiet and serious type; he managed to bully me whenever I was in his sight. Almost everyday, a red mark would appear on my arm before I went to sleep at night. On a good day, my brother might purposely trip me, but that barely occurred. Yes, that was the normal life of me at the age of ten.

One warm day in the summer, my father came home late with a worried expression on his face.

"Fifteen villagers have suddenly gone ill today......we think there's a contagious disease going around. I need to go to the Kyodai village for a few days to obtain some medicine and herbs," he said gravely.

"Father, may i go with you?" that bratty Sesshomaru inquired ever so solemnly.

"Hmmmmmmm.....yes, sure whatever....but," my father paused and looked directly at me." I was hoping Inuyasha would join us this time as well."

YES! I could have sworn i felt my heart skip a beat as I lept with joy! Finally I could spend time with my father!! Lately, Sesshomaru has been such a major...(dare I say) SUCK UP to my father that i never got to spend time alone with him. Hahahaha.... I mischievously chuckled to myself as I watched my irascible brother jealously shoot daggers at me with his eyes. Excellent, his expression was absolutely livid, almost poisonous at that point. 'Oh look, what is he doing now,' I thought to myself. 'Oh look he's bashing up his dinner with his fist.' Never before have i seen my brother look so furious and disturbed.

" Dear, stop playing with your food......" my mother said in her mothering manner.

Sesshomaru jerked his head up to look at his mother and narrowed his eyes. My brother has always hated my mother with a passion, ever since he found out that she was human. He gave her a huge, noticeable sneer before storming off.

" Okay, it's settled then! Tomorrow we set off to the village of Kyodai!" said father. Well? What do you think of the first chapter? It's short, I know. But I'm working on it.
