Strange voice (SV): So did you get enough reviews to post new stories?
Shelay: Not you again!
SV: yup... now, answer me
Shelay: Not quite.. Who are you anyways?
SV: To be honest I'm your muse... your inspiration... you know!
Shelay: DUH! Of course I know! Anyways, there's a major plot twist in this chappie...
SV: yeah Rin's not Inumaru's
Shelay: SHHH
SV: Sorry
Shelay: As I was saying... get ready for a major plot twist. Let's begin shall we?
SV: I guess... but only if you get two people to write reviews for you to post more stories!
Shelay: That'll be for the next chappie... that and two reviews for this story. Now let the poor
readers do what they came to do.
SV: What's that?
Shelay: READ!
SV: oh yeah! Sorry! So what are you still doing here? READ!
Chapter 3: Strange Musings (How appropriate!)
Inumaru looked at Kikana.
"Are you serious?" he asked.
"Totally. Why? You didn't know?" she asked.
"No... The baby, it smells funny, more like my parents than me." Inumaru thought out loud.
"You're right." Kikana agreed.
Jaken laughed.
"What is so funny?" Kikana snarled.
"That baby is really Lord Sesshoumaru and Lady Rin's child. Inumaru isn't." Jaken replied simply.
Inumaru froze.
"WHAT?!"
"You. Are. Not. Lord. Sesshoumaru. And. Lady. Rin's. Child. The. Coming. Baby. Is." Jaken
repeated very slowly, each word cutting into Inumaru.
Inumaru turned and ran from the garden. He ran and ran and ran. He ran until the white-out effect
kicked in.(A/N: have you ever noticed that when you're really pissed or sad or doing something you
really like everything around you seems to disappear like a bottle of white out got spilled over
everything but you? That's what I mean.) When the white-out effect lifted it was very dark. He
looked around at scenery he'd never seen before, he noticed he was shivering, but the cold didn't
register in his mind. Inumaru laid on the ground and began to sob, becoming a little boy, confused,
lost, alone, and unloved. He cried until he couldn't cry anymore, dry sobs racking through his thin
body. He shook with those, dry sobs, shivering from unregistered cold until the beams of light began
to rise over the horizon. He saw the light long before it came over the horizon. It was hard to see but
from his room he and his mother had always watched it and he had become quite adept at seeing it
when even full demons could not. He lay quietly shaking on the ground for hours. He heard a group
of people moving continuously closer to him. One was a hanyou, one a kitsune, one he couldn't
place (Is Kilala a demon? I can't remember!), and three humans. He could smell it. He continued to
listen and smell the group. He could hear two males, one child, and two females, no three, the one
whose scent he couldn't place was distinctly female. The hanyou was male, one human was male,
the child was the kitsune, and the other two humans were female. Inumaru made no attempt to move
as they came continually closer. He heard the hanyou stop and say quietly "I smell a demon."
Inumaru grinned. // I used to confuse the scents of hanyou's and demons, but father... I mean Lord
Sesshoumaru, taught me to be able to sense the very distinct differences.// he thought. He saw the
group enter his clearing and gasp in surprise. It suddenly registered to him how he must look. A little
boy, with trails of muddy dried tears running down is face, just laying there, smile on his face,
unmoving. He sat up suddenly, causing a huge reaction including the other hanyou to whip a rusty
kitana sword from it's sheath. Inumaru looked at the sword until realization dawned.
"Teutssaiga." he breathed. "That means you're Inuyasha."
Inuyasha looked slightly taken aback at the lack of introduction but immediately launched into a
rant about his reputation preceding him. A beutiful black haired girl beside him silenced him with a
simple wave of her hand.
"I am Kagome. You know who Inuyasha is, that's Shippo, Sango, Miroku, and Kilala." the girl
declared, gesturing to the others as she said their names. "Who are you?"
"I am... I used to be... I thought I was... I don't know. Just call me Inumaru, everyone does." he
muttered softly. Kagome went closer.
"No! He's a demon." Inuyasha snarled, pulling her back.
"No I'm not... I'm a hanyou, like you Inuyasha." Inumaru declared loudly. "But I'm not going to
fight any of you. I was just resting here. I will leave you in peace if you would like." Inumaru
countered.
"Yeah. I'd like!" Inuyasha snarled, baring his teeth.
Inumaru stood to leave.
"Wait." Kagome said. Softly, simply, kindly. The sound of that one word, rushed to Inumaru's
heart. He wanted her. Just her. He had fallen head over heels in love just from her asking him to
wait. He didn't know why, but this was going to be difficult. He turned and looked at her.
"Stay with us." she said. Not an order, just a simple request. But for some reason Inumaru could feel
that her heart was put into those words. So he did.
~Okies peeps. Tell me watcha think. The plot is gonna get weirder soon. Wait, did I just let that
slip? *Grabs MIB mind eraser, puts on sunglasses. Hits button. You will forget what you just read.
You will become a hentai freak and an avid yaoi/yuri supporter. You will review this story. You
will ask Shelay_Hill to post more stories. NOW!* I'll update when I get two reviews that you like
this story AND two review for me to post my other stuff. Laters!~
