Disclaimer: I do not own Inu Yasha, Takahashi Rumiko does - -;; (like you thought I did)

Tell me, won't you? I'll love you forever! lol Anyways, as we last left off, Inu Yasha's mother died and now he is off to live with his father, step mother, and half brother. I understand that I am changing the actual story line arounf a bit, so don't flame me for it! Thank you!
Haunting Me in Dreams
Chapter Two : Unwanted
Written by : Feng Shui Goddess
I approached a large, two-story home. The house looked rather modern for the time; two tall columns supported the upper floor of the house, and it had large windows. On both side of the front door grew exotic flowers, and cherry blossom trees were scattered around the lot. The house was surrounded by a tall fence structure, and there was a small pond with koi towards the back of the house. There was a fire pit in front of the home, and two polls with a string beteewn them for drying clothes. The house seemed rather nice, but I smelled trouble in the air. This wasn't the first time that I had been to this house, but the first time I had come by myself. Slowly I walked up a stone path that led to the large door of the house. I didn't know why I was so scared, but I was. Would Father be mad at me? And Sessho Maru never liked me that much, because I'm a hanyou. I decided I wasn't ready to go into the house quite yet, so I sat in front of the door on the cold stone. The sun was high in the sky, and it beat down on me with it's furious rays of light. I had never been so worried or scared in my life. If my father didn't want me, then who would? Would I always be alone in the world? It was hard for me to place my life into other people's hands, because I longed to be independant. Slowly I scraped my claws on the hard stone, sending shivers up my spine. The wind playfullky tossed leaves to and fro in the air. Tired of waiting for nothing, I stood up, grabbing my bag of things.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps walking slowly around behind me. I quickly turned around to find two amber eyes staring into mine. His white hair was down past his back, and he had two pinstripes on his cheeks, and a crescent shape on his forehead. He was taller then I, but not by much. He wore an elaborate white kimono with exotic designes on the sleeves. Over his kimono he wore a thich chest plate with horns on it. His long white tail hung over his shoulder, as for it not ot drag on the ground. He smirked, "long time no see, Inu Yasha." I met his gaze with an angry one, "I'm not in the mood, Sessho Maru." Sessho Maru laughed at me, mockingly. "Why? Because your pathedic human mother died? You're so emotional that you don't even deserve to be called HALF a demon." I didn't care about Sessho Maru insulting me, but my mother was a different story. I stared down angrily at the ground. I wasn't in the mood to fight, but if he pushed me hard enough, my string might just snap. My mother never liked for me to fight, because she told me that only cowards would ever fight to protect their honor. She said that men with real honor would never fight. Sessho Maru laughed, and walked past me, purpously shoving me as he passed. I clenched my fists so tight, I drew blood. As Sessho Maru walked away, I gave him an angry glance, and followed him inside the house. Noticing that I was walking behind him, Sessho Maru glared at me. "What are you doing, following me? You stupid hanyou..." Getting pretty fed up with Sessho Maru, I snapped back. "I'm here to see my father!" Sessho Maru just laughed. "He doesn't want you anymore, didn't you know that? Why do you think he left your mother all alone to die? Because he doesn't care. About you or your dead human mother."
With that I lost control, and I charged at Sessho Maru, my claws extended as far as they could go. Before he knew what had hit him, I strook him down with all my might, impaling him with my claws so hard I drew blood. With Sessho Maru pinned on the ground, I sunk my fangs into his arm and bit down as hard as I could. As Sessho Maru started to stand up, I attacked him again. "Claws of Blood!" I shouted as invisable blades of blood cut into Sessho Maru's skin. I finally allowed my half brother to stand, and he gave me a look of disbelief. "Fine. You can come in and see your father," he reasoned. Glad that I won the battle, I pushed past Sessho Maru and walked up to the door, and walked in. My father and his new wife sat at a table, and began to kiss. Not noticing I was there, the couple kept kissing even while I was in the room. I stared at my father in disbelief. I couldin't believe that he had moved on from my mother's death so quickly. It was as if he didn't even care that she was gone, and from the look of it, he was happy she had died. Sadly I looked down at the floor, wondering to myself why I had made the journey all the way to this house just to find my father practically cheating on Mother. My face started to get hot, as tears strated forming in my eyes. 'No, you musn't cry here, Inu Yasha. You must be strong and brave. You must show your father that you're a real man,' I thought to myself. I tightly shut my eyes, not allowing any tears to seep through. I felt a someone tap on my shoulder, and I looked up to find Sessho Maru with an evil expression on his face. "See," he said, "he doesn't care about you anymore. He has forgotten all about you, you stupid half breed." At that moment I knew that I would never be able to happily live with my father, espicially with his new wench and that damn Sessho Maru.
"Father," I said loudly, to get his attention. My father looked up at me and smiled. "Oh, Inu Yasha. How nice to see you here," he said. I wasn't buying his act. I walked up to my father and stared directly at him. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!" I screamed. "You've already forgotten about Mother?! Who is this wench! How could you leave me all alone like this?! You never even came to visit me after Mother died! You...!" My father stared at me in annoyance, "Inu Yasha! How could you say those things to your father?! Why did you even come here, you know I don't want you anymore! You're 12 years old now, can't you live for yourself?! I've had it with you, Inu Yasha, get out of my house!" I stared at my father in shock. 'He doesn't want me anymore?' I thought to myself, 'how can this be?' Before walking away, I slapped my father's face, leaving slashes in his skin. Before I walked out of the door, my father smirked. "I'm so glad I poisoned your mother, Inu Yasha."
(A.N:) That's it for chapter 2! I am sorry about the cliffhanger, but I would like you to continue to read this story with excitement. Please review this story and tell me how you like it, and what you think is good/bad about it. Thank you very much for giving the time to read this.
