Inuyasha's Childhood
Chapter six; No Home
A/N; I would like to thank Jodea Moondreamer once again. I would also like to thank Take2TLT who e-mailed me about this story. I appreciate all the reviews and when people tell me that they like my story. ^o^ (starts sobbing in happiness).
I looked from the tree where I sat. Humans were standing below me. A middle- aged man and a young boy stood talking. The boy was being scolded for something or other. I was bored, so I sat listening.
"Dad, who's that?" the boy said pointing his finger in my direction. I leaned against the tree and closed my eyes while laying my ears flat against my skull.
"Hello up there!" the man called up. "What are you doing out here alone? Shouldn't you be home?"
I looked down at him and said, "I have no home. I'm an orphan." I could smell his pity and see it in his eyes.
"Come with us!" the boy said cheerfully.
"I can't. No one wants me. I'm a half-demon," I said the last part painfully, knowing what would happen next.
"No you're not! Half-demons look funny and the only thing weird about you is your hair!" the boy said with his arms crossed.
"He's right. Why do you lie?" the father said. I could hear the curious edge in his voice.
I hopped from the tree with my ears sticking straight up. I looked him in the eyes and said, "How can you tell me that I am lying? I am the son of the Great Lord of the Western Lands." I turned and walked away, limping from the injuries that lashed across my body.
I felt something suddenly strike me in the head and I turned around. The man stood holding an arm full of rocks. He threw another, which struck me in the head. I stumbled back and fell to the ground. I watched as his son followed suit. They both began chucking rocks at me and hurling insults. I could feel blood dripping from a cut above my eye and my other injuries began screaming.
I tried to climb to my feet, but the pain wouldn't allow me to. I fell forwards onto my face and looked up at them. I felt tears welling in my eyes and the same thought ran through my head over and over again *No home. I'm hated by all. *
I gasped in pain as a large rock struck my hurt ear and I passed out.
I awoke in a heap of dead bodies from a recent battle. I could feel my claws digging into rotting flesh as I strived to sit up. One of my claws past through one body's chest and I could feel their innards squirming with maggots. I immediately extracted my claws from the body and wiped the disgusting entrails on another's armor. I slowly climbed up and stumbled forward. I fell from weakness and I began to roll down the rest of the hill. I landed at the bottom with a soft thud and rolled onto my back.
I looked up at the sky as I gasped for breath feeling the pain that no seven year old should endure. I dug my claws into the ground and began dragging my body along, leaving a thick trail of blood behind. Most of it, mine. I dragged my body, until I came upon a pair of feet.
I looked up into the eyes of a young woman. Her eyes were filled with pity and a small fear. She knelt down in front of me and touched my hurt ear. I sucked in breath at the painful sensation. I began to growl at her, warning her to stop trying to hurt me worse. She stepped back and I instantly saw a dim evilness play across her features.
She grabbed my ear and began pulling it roughly. I weakly tried to strike her with my claws, but she easily dodged it. She let out a harsh laugh and kicked me in the side. I could feel the broken ribs grinding together painfully. I looked up at her face and saw that she was enjoying my suffering. I tried again to swipe at her, but she only dodged and began grabbing my hurt ear and tugging on it. She danced around like a sprite as she kicked at me and tugged my poor ears. I finally passed out again as I gave into pain.
I woke up again, only now it was night. The devil girl was gone and I was alone to suffer in the pain that she had inflicted upon me. My ears throbbed horribly and my ribs continued grinding against one another. I rolled onto my back and relaxed my body as I wished on a star.
I wished for a home and happiness.
A/N: I would appreciate any comments what so ever. Please review and let me know what you think. If I don't post, it's because I'm working on my other fan fics.
