do take credit for the creation of Tenshi.)

after.
It was a cold day in Japan's Warring period. Inuyasha and his companions were huddled around a small fire trying to keep warm. "Man is it cold!" yelled Kagome, the reincarnation of the ancient priestess Kikyo. She had fallen through the well at her grandfather's shrine, to find herself in Japan's Ancient Warring period. She had been the original owner of the Shinko No Tama that was now scattered around the country and she was searching for. "Human's are so weak!" Said Inuyasha, the dog demon and protector of Kagome. "Hey you're half human!" Kagome snapped back. "So? Your ALL human," He said, standing up. "Where are you going Inuyasha?" Asked the young fox demon Shippo. He was quite comfortable in his father's old fur. "I don't care! As long as it's away from her!" he screamed. "Inuyasha you can be such a baby," Kagome replied, sitting back casually. "Looks who's talking! Mrs. I-can't-walk-a-mile-without-sitting-down-or- putting-on-makeup!" Inuyasha yelled. Kagome got up and was just about to yell "SIT BOY!" when there was a large crash like thunder and a blinding flash of light.~~~~~~
The full-blooded dog demon, and half-brother of Inuyasha, was not having a good day. Sesshoumaru had not been able to find his half-demon brother. He wanted the Shinko No Tama, and Inuyasha and his female were getting in the way. Then to top it off he had to meet with his allay Naraku and discuss a new spell they were developing to gather the jewel shards. Sesshoumaru had to admit that Naraku was very strong, but he preferred working alone. "Lord Sesshoumaru, where do we go next?" Asked his toad like follower Jaken. "Just keep rowing," Sesshoumaru said. They rowed down the misty river when they heard a loud boom, and a flash of light. There was a strong wind and the small boat was turned over. Sesshoumaru stood up in the air and blocked his face from the things flying in the wind. The bright light forced him to shut his eyes, then suddenly it stopped. "Lord Sesshoumaru! Are you well?" asked Jaken. Sesshoumaru didn't answer, but started to go to were he saw the light come from. He walked through the brush until he came to an open clearing. There, lying in the center was a young girl. ~~~~~~
Inuyasha stood there stunned for a moment. "Uh.what was that?" He asked wide-eyed. "I have no idea," replied Kagome with the same blank face. Shippo stood up and sniffed the air. "It smells funny," Shippo said and looked at Inuyasha, "Why don't we take a look?" "You idiot! What if it's Sesshoumaru or another demon?" Inuyasha yelled, hitting Shippo on the head. "What, are you scared Inuyasha?" Kagome said slyly. "Scared!" Inuyasha yelled, "I just don't want you embarrassing me anymore!" Kagome walked over to Inuyasha and stared him in the eye. Then she took a step back and smirked. "SIT BOY!" She yelled through clinched teeth. Inuyasha went falling to the ground, causing dust to form a cloud around him. Once he got up he was covered in dirt. "I'll show you!" He said and grabbed Kagome. "Hey! Where are you taking me?" She said, hitting Inuyasha in the head hard enough to let her go. "We had better go check out where that light came from," Said the little flea that appeared on Inuyasha's shoulder. "Oh, fine." Kagome said while following Inuyasha to the place where they saw the light.~~~~~
Sesshoumaru looked at the girl for a moment. She was unlike any other creature he had seen, and smelled neither demon nor human. She had long golden hair that was strewn about her, and her skin was paler and smoother then the full moons. He slowly walked over to her. She had on torn and tattered, white clothes; a skirt and a ripped top. He bent down and reached out to touch her shoulder, hoping to awaken her, or it. She moved a little and made a soft groan. Slowly, she opened her eyes and looked up at Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru was stunned, for her eyes were ice blue and seemed almost to glow. She didn't seem frightened of the demon, but looked at him curiously. The girl reached out a hand and touched Sesshoumaru. He didn't flinch, but the girl's eyes widened a bit once she discovered he was actually real. Sesshoumaru started to stand up, and extended a hand toward the golden haired creature. She took it and made an attempt to stand, but then tripped. Sesshoumaru caught her before she fell, but it made him feel strange to be acting like he was. Why was he being so kind to this creature? True, she did fascinate him, for he had never seen anything like her in his life. They slowly made their way to Sesshoumaru's boat, which Jaken had just turned back over. "Lord Sesshoumaru shall we." He began, but stopped once he caught sight of the girl, "What.What is that!" Sesshoumaru paid no mind to his servant, but helped the girl into the boat and sat down. Jaken hurried into the boat and started to row again, but he constantly looked back at the girl. She looked around the misted river as they passed, and seemed enchanted by it. She was so innocent looking, yet was still very mysterious. They rowed for a while until Jaken went to a stop. "Here you are milord," He said and scuttled out of the boat. Sesshoumaru started to help the girl, but she was able to get out of the boat on her own. They walked to a large cave and entered it. It was dark, but a large roaring fire came from the center. Sesshoumaru sat down in front of the fire, followed by the girl. She sat beside him staring into the fire. "Sire, what would you like me to do?" Jaken asked, hoping to get a reason to get away from the girl's ice gaze. "Food," He said, it was an obvious command to the toad servant. Jaken hurried to collect food for his master. Once he was gone Sesshoumaru turned to the girl. "What is your name child?" He asked. The girl looked up to him confused. At first Sesshoumaru thought that she might not understand him, but then she answered. "I.I don't know." She said in a light voice. She looked up at Sesshoumaru; "I don't remember anything, besides meeting you." A moment passed in silence. "What is your name?" She asked curiously. "Sesshoumaru," He said. "That's a strange name. Why do you have such strange ears?" She asked again, even more child like, although she looked to be in womanhood. "I am a dog demon," He said. "Dog demon? That's strange, I don't think I've ever seen one of them," She said, lying down beside Sesshoumaru, "Am I a demon?" She asked once more. " I don't know, but whatever you are, you're not human," He said looking down at her. "Oh, what's a human?" She asked looking up to him comically. Sesshoumaru a huff that was most like a laugh he'd get. "You must have had a pretty bad fall to forget so much," He said. "Actually, I think I did fall," She said, wide-eyed. "Well at least you are starting to remember a little. Now do you remember your name?" He asked this time. "No." She said, hanging her head. "Well I'm not going to just call you girl, youkai, or hanyou so I suppose we'll have to make up a name for you," He said, and paused to think. "Tenshi?" She asked. Sesshoumaru gave a nod. "Lord Sesshoumaru, I have returned with food for the creature," Jaken said as he dragged in a dead deer and a bag of fruit. At the sight of the deer Tenshi gasped and ran to it. "You killed it!" She yelled. "Well of course I did," Said Jaken, very confused. Tenshi leaned over the deer and placed her hands on it. She started to mutter something as she rocked the deer's body back and forth. A tear ran down her cheek, and turned to a bright ray of light when it touched the dead animal. When the light faded, the deer was standing next to Tenshi. "Go on little one," She said, and the deer ran out of the cave.~~
