A/N: THIS IS JUST SOMETHING NEW I'm TRYING OUT SO NICE COMMENTS PLEASE! THANK YOU!

Chapter 1:

With the Eastern Wolf Tribe…

It was nearly nightfall. As the sun furthered itself into the horizon, everyone was settling in their own personal quarters. That is except for the wolf prince. He was currently having a down-spiraling conversation with the new Queen of the White-coat Wolf Tribe.

The vibrant red-head was now pacing the room, while a frustrated Kouga sat on his exotic bed of furs.

"I don't care what you do, Ayame." he began, "I'm going to mate with Kagome and there's nothing you can do about it." He said, glaring daggers at her. Ayame was trying her best not to pout; something her grandfather scolded her about often.

"But I don't get it! What do you even see in her? She's just a weak human who needs to be protected all the time! Don't you care at all what I've done for you?!" Kouga rolled his eyes at her.

Here we go again… he thought.

"I listened to my elders… I sat through all of the war meetings… I trained hard and worked my ass off for three years straight! And do you want to know why?!" she yelled.

"No, but I bet you're gonna tell me anyway…" he muttered.

"I did all this for you! And you repay me by choosing someone else?! My reward is you picking that priestess?!" She was breathing incredibly hard now. Kouga was growling low in his throat.

"Look, I get what you're trying to tell me… But it doesn't change the fact that you're still just a pup… just a pup with a title." He said standing now. He tried walking out of his room, but Ayame wouldn't let him.

"Don't even try to walk away from this, Kouga! You knew this day was going to come, so you tried to plan ahead, didn't you?" Kouga was still growling and suddenly closed his eyes, trying to block out her talking. With each word, he was getting closer and closer to snapping.

"Why are you being like this, anyway? You just want her because she can sense the shards, don't you—"

*SLAP!*

"Don't. Say. Another. Word. You are to never come back to this cave! EVER!" He said with death reeking in his voice.

The young female stood her shocked at she raised her hand to the red mark on her left cheek. She also felt three perfectly aligned claw marks on it as well.

Seconds went by, and then minutes as they both stood in silence. Ayame shielded her eyes with her bangs as she spoke, just above a whisper.

"Very well then… Have a good time with Kagome… You two deserve each other…" she said her voice barely cracking. She felt tears form in her eyes but she refused to let them fall.

I will not give this wolf the satisfaction his doesn't deserve… I am Queen of the White-coat Wolf Tribe! I will leave this place with dignity… never to return again… she thought as she left the cave.

As much as she wanted to go home, sing the younger pups and future warriors to sleep, and then settle into her own master quarters for the night, she couldn't. At least, that's what her mind was telling her.

How could I go home, knowing that I failed everyone? I'm their queen, and here I am running home like a homesick dog… Her anger started rising the further she went deep in thought.

So what if he chose that weakling? Not like I care… But why? That's right… because I'm just a pup to him.

Ayame decided that she should blow off some steam with her newly found anger, so she wandered off into the forest to think (or kill something).

She walked for quite some time before she came across rocky path of some sort with huge boulders and a tiny stream.

Those rocks sure do look punchable… she thought while cracking her knuckles.

Three and a half hours nearly passed when the young wolf demon finally stopped. The peaceful and serene place used for relaxing was now looking like crumbled up war zone. Exhausted, scraped and bruised, Ayame went walking in the opposite direction of her home: away from the mountains.

What is so special about her? What does she have that I don't? Well I'm just going to find out for myself. She decided. Ayame walked south, in direction of where she last saw Inuyasha and his friends.

She had been walking for a good hour before she noticed something was very wrong. She noticed the silence.

Since when was the night dead silent? Hell it's almost as lively as it is during the day with all of the nocturnal animals roaming free… she thought as she stayed on her guard. After noticing the eerie silence, she felt two holes burning through her lower back. Something was watching her.

Getting annoyed of this… whatever it was that was following her, Ayame spun in the opposite direction, swiping her claws at the bushes and trees and the clearing. The demon must have seen this coming since Ayame heard a rustling noise, confirming that she wasn't imagining things.

"Whoever you are, come out now! If you bold enough the follow me, why not show yourself?" Though she sounded cocky, she was really just pissed from earlier. Suddenly, a demon with thin wave-like body leaped high into the sky before landing swiftly on the ground, causing a blast of dust and debris. When the dust died down, standing before her was a giant demon snake.

"Well, look what we have here! The princessss of the Northern Wolf Tribe… You look good enough to eat!" It said with a wicked smile. (A/N: that's only if snakes could smile…) Ayame was getting highly irritated as she thought so little of him.

"Great… I get rejected and SLAPPED by my ex- fiancé and now I have to fight an over-grown worm with teeth… Just great…"

I should have known this was going to happen. I punched those rocks so hard that I almost thought they were going to punch back… so much for blowing off steam… she thought as she looked at the dried blood on her fists.

"And by the way… It's Queen…" she said as she flexed her claws.

With the Inu-Gang…

As the last bit of fire went out, everyone settled in for the night. Miroku slept leaning against a tree. Sango was curled up with Kilala in her biggest form. Kagome slept in her sleeping bag with Shippo curled up next to her. Inuyasha slept on his high perch in a tree… except that he wasn't asleep. Inuyasha was peacefully staring at the moon, shining bright in the sky when he heard faint noises. Minute by minute the noises were becoming definite.

Are those… battle sounds?Inuyasha stood frantically in his tree as he peered through the trees as if he was searching for something. He took a deep breath in as the wind picked up. He started to growl low in his throat.

Wolf's blood… What's that mangy flea-bag doing here in the middle of the night? I bet the fool tried to come and steal Kagome but end up getting killed by a wimpy demon instead… Now that's a sight. He thought in amusement.

As much as Inuyasha wanted to ignore the arrogant wolf's death, the ongoing battle became much more noticeable when the noise was loud enough wake everyone.

"Don't all of you hear that?" said Kagome, sitting up from her bed. Sango nodded at her.

"Could it be a demon?" she asked, already mounting Kilala. Inuyasha finally made his appearance.

"Of course it's a demon! What else could be making all this racket!" he said, crossing his arms. "We might as well not even bother on this one…" Everyone looked at him in confusion.

"Why is that Inuyasha?" says the monk. Inuyasha did his usual 'Keh' and turned his nose up in arrogance.

"Because it's a waste of time, that's why! If that flea-bitten wolf wants to die, fine by me!" While everyone stood in puzzlement, while a certain miko was seething.

"Inuyasha?" she asked sweetly. He looked at her in response.

"SIT!"

"GAHH!"

#$%^&*&^%#$ $%^&*&^%#$ #%^&*^%$ #$%^&^%$! #%$^&^%$ ! #%$%^&^%#$

After their little… predicament… the gang set off in the direction of the engaging battle. When they arrived at the battle scene, they found craters and debris everywhere, the corpse of what looked like a demon snake and an unconscious and bloody form of a white wolf.

Everyone towered over the form with wide eyes.

"Well there's your wolf…" Sango said dryly.

"I don't get it! Where's the flea-bag?!" said the hanyou.

"Well I have to admit… if it really was Kouga I would have sensed his jewel shards, but I didn't." confessed Kagome.

"It would be quite obvious that this isn't Kouga… since he's the prince of the Eastern Brown-coat Wolf Tribe." Miroku concluded.

"Say… don't we know a particular White-coat wolf demon?" Sango thought aloud.

"Then this wolf is…" Inuyasha trailed off.

Ayame… What in the hell is she doing way down here?
