Chapter 1
Akami had just finished fighting a demon, and she wiped the blood onto her tan kimono. The demon had attacked a village, killing everyone in the vicinity. Akami started digging graves for the humans that had been slain, and stopped suddenly when she came to the bodies of two small children. She slowly cast her head down and said a small prayer for them. Akami was a half-demon, but she was still half human after all. She had long brown hair and brown dog ears on the top of her head. She was plain looking, not the most beautiful woman, but what she lacked in beauty, she made up for in strength. When she was a child everyone said she and Inuyasha could have been twins. Inuyasha. Her only friend. He was more like a brother to her. They had always been inseparable as children, and Inuyashas' mother took her in as her own. She didn't have any siblings, her mother and father had died when she was young. Akami continued burying the slain villagers but had a distant look on her face. When she was finally done she got up, brushed off her kimono, and continued on her way. She picked up the shard of the Shikon Jewel that was embedded in the monster's back, and added it to her small collection. Akami sadly walked away from the village and continued on her lonely journey.
~The next day~
Sango and Miroku sighed as Inuyasha stormed out of the hut they were staying in that night. Ever since Kagome had gone to stay in her time for good, the hanyou had been impossible to travel with. ~Flashback~ "Inuyasha...... come to hell with me. Forget about the silly girl. You know you only see me when you look at her. Come Inuyasha." stated Kikyou in her monotone voice. Inuyasha sighed, Kagome had been so different lately. She had started dating that Hojo guy and Inuyasha couldn't have been more enraged. Kagome had stated that she couldn't keep up with her studies, the Feudal Era wasn't her real home and that she had her original life in modern times. She apologized more then she ever had in her life to everyone, and after many sad goodbyes she went down the bone eaters well for the last time. Inuyasha cringed at the thought and turned towards Kikyou. "No" he said and turned and walked away. "If this is about that friend of yours... the girl named Akami..... I will make her pay Inuyasha! You mark my words!" Kikyou shouted ater the retreating hanyou. And for the first time since the moment Kikyou pinned him to the tree fifty years ago, Inuyasha felt a burning hatred for the dead miko. ~End Flashback~ Inuyasha stopped and looked at the surrondings. "What the hell happened here?" Inuyasha asked to no one in particular. No one seemed to notice and continued to look around the destroyed village. "Wait.........." Inuyasha trailed off and started sniff the air. "Is it a demon?" Miroku asked cautiously, loosening the beads on his right hand while Sango gripped her Hiraikotsu. "No...Akami was here." "Who's Akami? Are you not telling us something Inuyasha?" Miroku said with a wink earning him a slap from Sango and a glare from Inuyasha. "She's like a sister to me you perverted monk" Inuyasha said, looking like he was about to use Tetsusaiga to chop the monk in two.
Shippou decided to pipe in at that very moment, "You never told us about her Inuyasha!", and stared at Inuyasha until he finally turned around. Despite his efforts, Shippou only got a 'feh' out of the temperamental hanyou. And that's when they came along the body.
