A/N; I would like to thank Sora Moto, magic-shield, HotaruMaxwell, Jodea Moondreamer, Rockerchikie, dragonfly, and a special thanks to robinsama for putting me on your favorites list! Thank you to everyone who has reviewed my story, I'm sooo happy right now!!! My story has 33 reviews! I did not expect so many reviews, and they're all good!!

To dragonfly; No, I don't write for a living, but I might. I'm 15, but I have written a horror story that is 50 pages on looseleaf.^-^

I stretched my body after my swim, I was headed towards another town to get more information about Kikyou and the Shikon no Tama. I entered the village and immediately began receiving stares. I ignored them as I walked through the village center. I saw Sesshoumaru.

"Se.Sesshoumaru!?" I exclaimed as I stood back, slightly surprised. "I...I thought you were dead!"

"Where did you get that idea, little brother?" he enunciated "little brother" in a cold, heartless tone. I looked into his eyes and saw nothing but hatred for me and an indifference to the rest of the world.

"A reptile demon told me! She said she killed you!" I said as I took a step towards him.

"You shall die, little brother. By my hands!" he said with no emotion at all. He held his first two fingers up and they began to glow gold.

"Wh..What are you DOING!?" I said as I dodged his whip.

"You caused our father's death. It was you and that human mother of yours that caused his untimely demise," he stated flatly as he swung his whip towards me again. I could see his other claws beginning to glow a sickly green.

I dodged again and stared at him in shock. *Why is he DOING this!? He's not going to use his poison claws on me is he!?* "What are you talking about!? I never knew Father! He died when I was still a baby!" I shouted as I barely dodged his next attack.

"He died protecting you," he said as he disappeared. He reappeared beside me and struck at me with his deadly claws. I dodged and ran from him looking over my shoulder. I watched as he disappeared, thinking that he had run. Until I ran into him without looking. He looked down at me in utter hatred and brought his claws down upon me.

His claws struck me in the face as he brought his other claws around. He struck me again in the stomach and kicked me aside. "You will die, little brother," he stated as he swept away. He was expecting the poison to take my life.

"I..refuse..to die," I said as I passed out.

A/N: Okay, in case anybody is confused, when he blacks out as he is walking or fighting, his demon instincts took over and he became all demon. Just so you know. Oh, he didn't do it while fighting Sesshoumaru because it's his brother and he cares about him and doesn't want to kill him. Please read and review!
