Chapter one/Intro/Prologue:

Hello, my name is Inuyasha. I don't have a last name, even I don't know why that is. I am a Hanyou. My journey is to protect my fellow Youkai and Hanyous from human society.

It's a scary thing to be hated by the majority of the earth, but hey, I'm used to it. All my life they've been after me, I never did anything to them; it's just the way they live. They live to hate and to chase innocent youkai and destroy us. And don't think I'm over-reacting, that doesn't even exist anymore for me. Any day they could decide to go through with their plans of a world extermination of youkai. See, there's a special gas called Y-XT that instantly kills one with youkai blood in a matter of seconds if released into the air. This gas doesn't harm humans, thus being the perfect solution to only eliminate 'those who need to be eliminated' as they're so kindly calling us these days. The goverment, for resons still unknown, won't allow them to go through with the extermination. I know you probably thought that it was the government who wanted us killed, but this human organization is of lesser status than the government. But the government seems to believe their every lie, and lets them do whatever the hell they please. But for some reason unknown to society, they will not go through with the extermination.

Now, I'm sure you probably want to hear more about me, the only sane person on the earth, not that I'm really a person.

My goal is obvious, I want to protect the innocence of Youkai. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of evil Youkai in the world, but turn on the news, and there are a lot of evil humans too. This isn't a battle of good and evil, this is a battle of hate and truth. No species wants to be equal with another, humans don't even want to be equal to each other, everyone on this planet has the urge to hate and kill anything different from them. This world is nothing but a never-ending cycle of hate and pain. But I'll get into that more later, you need to know about what I do.

My 'job' isn't something you would say was normal, there are others like me, they're just very well hidden, people like me can't exactly talk about our work. Some say I'm like a criminal defense lawyer, some of my associates say I'm a 'hero of justice', yeah right. I just protect innocent Youkai from being killed. My work usually takes place in a court room, I disguise myself as a normal lawyer, but I'm different. I only protect Youkai, I couldn't bring myself to defend the humans. I know that makes me just like them in a way.

Now your probably wondering why I want to protect the Youkai who were accused of crimes. The answer is because they're innocent. Youkai are treated differently than humans when it comes to punishment for a crime. Everyone of them who are decided guilty are sent straight to execution, and it doesn't help that they are assumed guilty until proven innocent. Thus the bastards who want the extermination found a way to kill us off slowly. So, they go and find files of Youkai citizens and frame them for things such as murder, robbery, fraud and any other crime they can think of. Me and my team find the Youkai that are innocent and being accused of crimes and those are the ones I protect. I can't tell you how we find them, It's one of our secrets, we have to have a lot of secrets to protect us from the enemy finding out about how we operate.

It's almost impossible for a potential client to track me down, that's why I'm the one who tracks them down. They hardly ever refuse my services, I mean think about it: You're a Youkai hated by society and you've just been accused of murder, I come to you, knowing your innocent and offer to defend you against your accusers. What do you do? Exactly. You do what any sane Youkai would do. You let me help you.

A Youkai did refuse my services once, a wolf Youkai who was accused of killing a woman who was obsessed with him. She wasn't really obsessed with him, she simply loved him and he didn't return the feelings, so she was the perfect victim. My associate, Miroku Tanaka, met him at a bar and the subject of him being accused of murder came up, don't ask me how, it just did. So Miroku reported back to me and I offered my help, and because the wolf is such an egotistical asshole, he refused. Some how he managed to prove himself innocent without me, though later he ended up joining my team.

About my team, strangely, we're mostly made up of humans. We're not really a large organization, just a few of my trusted associates. Miroku Tanaka, Sango Hashinaka, Kouga Kobayashi, Shippo Watanabe, Malira Tanaka and my brother Sesshomaru. No last name.

Miroku was the first person to take me seriously about my plan to stop the humans. Well, kinda. Aside from making countless idiotic jokes about it (which he still does) he really supported my idea. Nowadays he's usually the one to get our potential clients to fess up and hire us when we track them down. Though, he is good at his job, he has let us down a few times, particularly with some of our female clients. Damn pervert.

Sango is one of my most reliable associates. She takes her job seriously, but her emotions tend to get in the way of her work. I met her when handling her case years ago. her parents were executed and her brother 'suddenly disappeared', and I'm sure she still blames herself for what happened.

At work, she handles the technical stuff, like finding potential clients addresses, phone numbers, etc. And when violence is nessacary, she's usually the one doing the fighting, along side me.

I explained how I met Kouga earlier, he proved to be an okay negotioater in tough situations, he helps me out in court sessions and when Miroku slacks off he covers the client-seeking stage. His life went down hill after being accused of killing his old friend. He lost his job and his apartment. Now he's living with his girlfriend Malira and her brother Miroku.

Malira is Miroku's sister and is dating Kouga. I don't like to get involved with my colleagues personal lives, but it's overly clear by the constant flirting while working that they have a relationship. About Malira's position, she's my secretary/Kung Fu expert. She does what a normal secretary does, but she also kicks ass in battle. Being Miroku's sister, he insisted on me hiring her. Though her resumé contained mostly short part-time jobs at fast-food joints and a children's Kung Fu instructor for a week (she was fired for breaking three punching dummies and being too aggressive for her age-group). Miroku said she needed this. So I hired her.

I also have an intern named Shippo. (yeah, a real intern, didn't expect that for an underground organization, did ya?) Shippo's a 15 year old kid, barely in high school. His parents want him to be a lawyer, so somehow, out of all the other lawyers in Tokyo, they chose me. It could have something to do with the fact that he's a Fox Youkai. I underestimated him at first, he turned out to be a real computer wiz. He even hacked into the enemy's database one time!

Well, I guess I couldn't leave out my dear brother, now could I? Well, not much to say, he's a lawyer like me. We work as colleagues. it's hard, considering we can't stand each other. Though, nowadays, he has finally accepted that I am not Satan's excrement and has joined forces with me. After all, we both want the same thing. Peace.

Now that you know enough about what I do and why I do it, I'll tell you how the real story begins.

It was February, 15. The day Kagome Higurashi walked into my office.

Author's Note: Well, it's a new fic, and I think the idea is original...But it's probably not I know this was a very short chapter, but it's a prologue-ish thing, so...Yeah. I'm hoping this will be better than ZGR (which is currently on hiatus), for you guys to read and for me to write.

P.s. If there were mistakes (with spelling, capitolization, puntuation etc.) please ignore them, I already spent awhile proof-reading, so I'll just leave it as it is >>;

PLEASE REVIEW!
