Disclaimer: I do not in any shape or form own Inuyasha. Although I really wish I did, I don't. With that out of the way, I hope you really enjoy my story!

Ren's POV

I have to run! I have to run far, far away! The wolves! There in my village! If I don't run away they are going to get me. I can't let them get me! I have to live…. For mama and papa and onee-san and onii-san. They told me that I had to live for them. I HAVE to live.

Up ahead, I see the lush forest that is always so beautiful during the day, but now it looks deep and dark, like it's going to swallow me whole. I have to keep running, though. I have to keep going. I think this can count as the worst 16th birthday EVER! In all the histories of birthdays! I don't have time to think about that, now! I have to run!

Finally. I'm finally in the forest. I'm finally safe from those retched wolves. From those terrible wolves that killed my family and all my friends. From those beastly…..THINGS! Those disgusting wolves who want nothing but blood shed.

*rustle*rustle*rustle*

I stop dead in my tracks. What was that? Wolves? No…I-I ran before they could even see me. It can't be wolves. It can't be….can it? I hear it again…. That rustling sound. The sound of twigs and leaves being crushed.

"Who's there?" I whisper, knowing that they can hear me. Knowing that they're close. I hear the rustling sound stop before it just keeps going. I can hear me heart beating fast in my chest. I swear the other person would be able to hear it too if they tried. "Hello? I asked who is there." I say, a little bit more irritated. Why aren't they answering me?

I see a flash of white cross in front of my face before my eyes refocus and I see a handsome man, at least a foot and half taller than me. Probably around 6 something. He has a purple crescent moon on his beautiful forehead and purple streaks on his face. He has pure white hair that is longer than my own and small bangs the cover most of his forehead. His golden eyes are cold and reserved. I bet he's the type of person who rarely smiles. "Wh-who are you?" I ask for the third time, now. He stares at me. I feel uncomfortable under his heated gaze? No, glare. Why is he glaring at me? "What?" I ask getting more and more uncomfortable by the second. I hear him sigh. I quickly look away from him and the moon suddenly becomes very interesting.

"Who am I? Who am I?" I hear him give out a hard, humorless laugh and I flinch. He regains his composure and his face turns back to being emotionless. " You SHOULD be asking 'what' I am, not 'who' I am. I'll answer your first question ,though. My name is Sesshomaru."

" Fine then. 'What' are you, Sesshomaru?" I ask the rude man, my brow cocked. He smiles a sadist smile. The look gives me chills.

"I am a demon."

Sorry if this chapter was too short. I'm limited on time, today. I'm sure I will write more really soon. Please review and tell me what ya think. I would REALLY appreciate it if you would. Thanks a bunch, bye. (when I say soon, I mean later today,thanks.)
