Inuyasha's Childhood
Chapter seven; Hunted
A/N; I would like to thank Jodea Moondreamer and HotaruMaxwell for reviewing again. I would also like to thank The Unnamed Demon for reviewing. Please tell your friends about my story and put it on your favorites. I literally felt like crying when I saw how many reviews I had gotten! (I'm a girl, so this shouldn't seem too strange! ~o^) I'm sooo happy!! (starts sobbing)
The next few days were a never ending cycle of pain for me. I lied in the same place moaning with pain and wishing for death to come to me. My heart ached from all the loss I had suffered as I was finally able to will my body to stand. I slowly walked forward with a new purpose. I walked forward heading into the sinking sun.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Seven years later ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I watched as the humans waged war against one another. They were such fools, fighting their own kind. I smirked as I watched one after another fall to their knees and slump to the ground as they embraced death. I was now fourteen years old, but I could still remember my mother's death as the pain wrenched her face.
The pain of loneliness had been terrible for the first few years, but I had eventually blocked out my emotions. I watched as the battle ended and both sides retreated. Not one of the humans was uninjured. I let out a laugh as I jumped from my perch high in the tree. I knew what their reaction would be to my presence, I had made a name for myself.
"IT"S INUYASHA!!!!" a man screamed out as he clutched his injured arm.
The men started screaming and running in all directions. I smi8rked as I leapt high into the air and landed before one man.
"You. You smell like that woman who hurt me years ago," I said as I sniffed the air around his body.
The man backed away and began to flee in another direction. I jumped over his head and landed in front of him. I shot my arm out and grabbed his shirt. I sniffed the air around his face.
"It is her!" I snarled in his face as I held him in my grip. "Take me to your home!" I growled as I pushed him forwards. The man stumbled forwards and walked to his village. Once there, I immediately caught her scent.
The villagers screamed as I jumped from building to building, tracking her down. I finally came upon a small hut that was drenched in her scent. I tore through the entrance and headed towards the room I smelled her in. My instincts overrode my senses as I glared at the woman who stood before me.
"You! You're the one! You beat me until I couldn't move! Now you will pay!" I growled as I leapt at her with claws outstretched. I could feel my claws slip through her silky flesh as I looked into her startled eyes. She stepped backwards as my claws ripped through her chest. I swung my claws again and killed her in one final stroke. Her eyes grew dull and listless as her body fell to its knees.
I looked up awaking from my slight daze. I looked at my claws as shock overcame my body. *I killed a human! I can't believe I killed a human! * I screamed in my mind as tears welled in my eyes. What would my mother have thought of me if she was alive?
I ran from the hut clutching at my head in heartache. *She deserved it, * a cold voice tried to reason in my mind. The demon instincts began to overcome me, soothing me, reasoning with me. I relaxed as I slipped into a black calm.
A/N: Well? What do you think? Your thoughts really do matter to me!
