Title: A Child of Fate (Prologue/?)


Author: Kay


Disclaimers: Rumiko Takahashi owns Inu-Yasha but this is my plot based off of it.


Rating: Mercurial and Ever-changing


Summary: This takes place in Kagome's Time but demons still exist. I'm trying to fuse
Ancient Japan with Modern Day Japan even though I've never been in my life yet. Kikyo
and Naraku are basically dead though.


Author's Notes: I got this idea from I don't know how, I was just on a Sessho-Maru and Kagome kick and had an idea. But I figured I was open for other relationships too if it works (I could probably do any shipper if I wanted so feel free to make suggestions for shippers and I just might do it if it's feasible.) Oh and Sango and Miroku are married in the story later.


Author's Notes 2: This first bit is in Kaede's POV if you've read the mangas so far but I'm only taking about that much from the actual plot besides the brotherly hatred of Inu-chan and Lord Fluffy.Shiseiji- a rude word concerning illegitimacy by the way.

Come of the beings

Weakness is born

But Weakness brings strength

To the Lower Ones

Weakness shall come and all shall know

But have a care for they that possesses

For the Child of Fate shall Seal yours"

-from the Records of the Shinrai Prophets


Night had fallen blanketing the sky with diamonds and glitterbugs. The village was

burning its last black cinders and ashes comprised what was physically left of it now.

The village miko-a young thing, my sister Kikyo, lay nearly dead but still she gathered

to herself enough strength to do her last tasks and make amends for the destruction

brought down on her people. The first task she left to me, her imoto-chan, but the

second-her final task she would do alone.


The fight, the final battle, was difficult. One might see that even if they themselves

weren't there to bear witness as I was, but the end results lay for all to see. . .the

powerful miko lay dead but not before dragging the evil shiseiji with her. It's hard to

watch family die even if you know they must. . .and it's worse when you must destroy

all traces of their passage upon this Earth but I did as she asked-placing the Shikon No

Tama where her heart once was I destroyed her, burned her corpse to ash so she could

guard against evil even in death. She was in the grips of visions when she asked for that

piece of my soul and did what she must and I curse the hanyou who brought us to this

though he now lay dead Naraku!BAH. However this isn't about Naraku, my sister

Kikyo, or even me. This is the story of Kodomo No Shukumei, A Child of Fate.
