Chapter 1

Today is the day that everything is going to change forever. Yasha turned his head and looked out the window not truly knowing what lay ahead for him and his friends. Yasha is a young 16 year old boy who leads a small group known as the Tama's. This group consist of Yasha, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and young Kagome. Yasha has long midnight black hair, violet eyes, and a white shirt and blue pants.

Sango and Miroku also are both 16.

Kagome is either 12 or 14 and Shippo is 6 the youngest but he could be younger. Sango is a demon slayer also second in command of the group.

Miroku is a monk. Kagome is a Miko in training. While Shippo is a child fox demon.

Finally, Yasha is a warrior that specializes in archery he is also the step brother of Lord Sesshomaru, a great inu demon. Inu demons usually travel around protecting the humans by defeating the stronger demons who wish to destroy the humans' village or something along those lines. In this world but due to a secret war all of the inus have been called into duty. So the Tamas travel around the land helping people instead as best as they can with demon problems. Today is the last day they travel around neighboring villages, to seek out more people in need across the land. Yasha took a deep breath looking into the forest through the window. It had been a busy day and the sun was finally going down.

'It should be a new moon tonight' Yasha thought a little distracted.

"Yasha! Are you listening!" Sango called out to her leader.

"Oh! Umm," Yasha said.

"I was telling the group how we should go to sleep now," Sango said it plainly.

"Yes! Of course!" The boy stumbled on his words then quickly put on his serious mask.

"Alright Gang, time to call it quits for the day." Everyone yawned sleepily and headed to their rooms. They were at their village where they shared a pretty good sized hut together. Izzy, Yasha's sister, lived with the chieftess of the village. The chieftess's name was, Keade. She cared for the entire village and the occupants in it. As soon as everyone was out of sight Yasha yawned and headed to his own room.


Yasha woke up suddenly hearing something crash mixed in with a demonic aura as he got up and grabbed his bows and arrows.

"Who's there! Answer me!" Yasha said as he steadied his bow to shoot careful not to wake the others in the middle of the night.

"Haha, you're so pathetic!" A voice came from behind Yasha. Before Yasha had the chance to meet face to face with the voice, he was struck on his side.

"Gah!" Yasha gasped holding his side in pain.

"You're stronger than I originally thought, you'll be perfect," the voice chuckled. Yasha held onto his wound unable to see the voice in the blackness of night. Figuring that his attacker was only after him he quickly dashed out the back door in his room and into the forest leaving a small trail of blood behind to protect his friends.

"You can't escape that easy," the voice said with a evil malice chasing after Yasha.

Suddenly Yasha could hear more footsteps thinking, 'he's got a couple of allies with him,' as he picked up his pace. But the voice's buddies were too fast for him and they managed to claw his chest and cut his cheek while also snapping his weapon in half as Yasha tried his best to shoot at them. Soon the trees became thicker slowing them down so Yasha could escape leaving even more blood behind.

'Judging by the wounds they gave me, they are demons,' Yasha thought as he ran.

Feeling his wounds ache Yasha slowed down considerably and started to wheeze as he left blood behind. That's when it happened, Yasha arrived breathing heavily at a edge of a worn down cliff.

The boy thought, 'shoot, dead end!' The demons blocked off every possible exit as the boy glanced around for any possible escape path.

"Well it looks like it's the end of the road for you," the voice now revealed as some sort of demon Yasha had never seen before snickered.

"I don't know what you want from me, but I won't let you have it!" He said gasping in between breaths. Suddenly, the cliff started to crumble underneath him.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Yasha screamed falling off the cliff. A picture of him, his friends, and sister flashed through his head before he landed head first on stone.


"Yasha it's time to get up lazy" Sango hollered knocking on the door. It was morning and Sango was waking Yasha up as usual. There was no reply just silence.

"If that's how it's going to be, then so be it!" Sango slammed opened the door. She was surprised to see that Yasha wasn't in his room. Sango was about to leave when she stumbled upon something strange.
