The Welder of BlackFire:
Thorn's Past Life-The Alliance Maker
Chapter Four: Meeting BlackFire Blood scented the air. The blood of a doe. Interested, InuYasha jumped up and followed it. He entered a tiny clearing, where a deer hung from a tree, blood dripping to the ground from its slit throat. But other than the gouging wound in its throat, it hung untouched.
'Why would a deer be hanging from a tree, untouched? But if it was bait..', but Inuyasha was cut off by a growl sounding behind him and the jumping out Thorn, still in wolfish form. She growled and spat at him, then, realizing who it was, her eyes glowed from bluish green to silver. Another sound came from the other side of the clearing.
'Leave,' she told the hanyou before her coat grew a dark and shinning black. The muzzle of the black wolf was blood-stained, Inuyasha noticed, as it ran toward the sound. A small screech echoed in the clearing, the screech of a dying demon. InuYasha walked back to camp, very nearly disgusted.

An hour later, the black wolf stalked into camp, coat bloodied. InuYasha wrinkled his nose in disgust.
"You shouldn't be wearing demonic blood so proudly," he said, opening his eyes. Blue eyes glared up at him and a grin split the maw of the creature.
"You thing I'm her do you?" it said, voice brassy and old, wisdom echoing in its depths. The hanyou looked down at the wolf.
"What do you mean /her/?" he asked, giving the wolf a side-ways glare. The wolf chuckled and looked to the trees.
"I am BlackFire," came the voice again, "The Slave of the Sword," his voice hinting disgust. He looked back at the dog-demon, who is now truly puzzled. BlackFire sighed. "I am the sword that the girl wears on her back. The one that refused your demonic blood at the rotting tree."
Confusion left InuYasha, but was replaced by questions. "Wait a minute, I thought that the demon in the sword could not emurge ever because it was sealed by such powerful magic?"
"That is true, yet it is not," replied BlackFire. "I am bound to the sword, but with the permission of my welder I may emerge." A smile tugged at his muzzle. "My Mistress is quite freelance and gives me the freedom I seek at night, so that I may slay and feed as I did so long ago." His eyes bore into InuYasha's. "My Mistress is everything that I hoped for, and the best I could have hoped for in a human. But now she's not quite human anymore," he continued.
"What do you mean by 'not all human'?" asked InuYasha when he did not elaborate. A smile glazed the black muzzle of the creature. A gurgle that could be called a laugh bubbled from his throat. He lowered his head onto his forepaws and closed his eyes.
"Do not anger her if you want to live. She has plans," and with that his breathing became normal and deep, with the depth of sleep.
"Hey! Hey!" cried InuYasha when he was ignored and the black wolf did not continue; but the beast was no longer BlackFire, the fur began to change color from a black bodily coat to white, the white scar that slashed his forehead fading from white to black.
"Come back!" he called, and the eyes opened, green and annoyed. The muzzle opened and a yawn escaped, revealing sharp fangs that glinted in the fire's light, reflecting the flames. A glare was cast to him before she fell asleep.
"Good-den, InuYasha," she whispered. He snorted and turned to watch the fire, wondering about what had happened and what BlackFire was talking about.
A/N: okay okay, yeah, so I haven't updated in a while. A week actually. But its because we never did get a new comp, which kinda makes me happy, so I haveta get on this one when its not freaking out.
