Well back with some more didn't take too long I hope ^.~
As someone did tell me the beginning of this fic sound a lot like the beginning of Inuyasha.
What can I say eh (shrugs shoulder)
Koyasha got a lot of his personality from his father let's just put it that way..
Anyway new Chapter
Inuyasha Beyond the Skin Chapter II (I promise..).
Marina dropped the two enchanted items she had been holding and grabbed hold of his wrist to take some of the pressure off her neck. His yellow eyes stared at his new captive with such hatred. "What year is it Girl?" Her ears boomed with the sound of her heart beat she felt her body loosing strength. Her eyes wavered and she began to fall unconscious. He let go of her neck and she dropped like a rag doll. Marina held her neck and began violently coughing. She pulled out her handkerchief and stained it lightly with blood. The young demon man grabbed her arm and lifted her to her feet. "Now you stupid girl answer me!" "It's 2022 during the Sakura blossom festival." She choked out. "2022" his eyes seemed to wander around looking at his surroundings.
He looked back at the strange girl. "You don't smell like a demon, but you don't look human either." He stared at her blue eyes, which stared back with a gentle gaze. Her calmness seemed to agitate him. "Well girl I suppose I should thank you for letting me loose." He sneered and his fangs glistened. "Now I have to find the well." "You mean the well that will send you to the past?" He jerked her closer. "What do you know about the well!?" Her eyes squinted in pain as his claws sunk into her arm. "Don't you think you should worry about something else first?" He gripped her even tighter. "Like what, I don't fear you!" She took her other hand and lifted the end of his tattered sleeve. He stared at the fayed and sun bleached garment, and let go of his grip on her arm. She quickly covered the wounds with her already blood handkerchief.
"I know a place where you can purchase another garment. He stepped sideways and slanted his eyes. "Well what are you waiting for!?" She knelt down beside the tree to pick up the things from her purse, but was jerked up by the young demon man and only managed to grab her wallet. He shoved her in the direction that the gate had been but was now shrouded in mist. ("Can he see the gate? I'm so turned around in here I can barely make out the tree that he once was at.") She blinked a moment then the gate was in front of her barely and an inch from her nose. "Open it girl! I'm not going to stand here all day because of your incompetence. She opened the gate and ventured out into the side street where no mist of any kind lingered. She looked back and saw only a screen of mist nothing of where she was could be seen. ("Why did it come back it's not supposed to be there today. Is it because I freed him and the other spirits are jealous?" I hope I'll have enough money to pay for what he picks out.")
He looked down at her impatiently. "Would you hurry up already!?" "I'm sorry." She continued walking over to the alley way and out into the festival. She forced back her cough which was threatening to show its ugly face again. She gritted her teeth together. ("I'm sure he can sense there's there is something wrong with me, but I can't let him know I'm as weak as he thinks.")
He looked out into the festival and stood in awe of the busy street. ("Is this the market place for her village?") People smiled and carried on oblivious to what walked among them. The two weaved through the crowd to a kimono shop. She entered ahead of him and stopped in the door holding her breath as a tickle began in her throat. The demon boy bumped past her knocking her to one side into a stack of kimono's on sale. He stood a moment and eyed the things in the shop, till his gaze met with an interesting artifact. "Why hello there dear, you're one of Riico's friends aren't you, the exchange student right? I must say that's quite a costume there young man. Now how may I help you two today?" "I'll be taking that." The shop owner turned his head and followed the young man's finger which pointed directly at a garment held in a glass case. "Oh, good choice but I'm afraid it's not for sale. Do you know that was said to have been made for the son of a half demon and priestess." The demon boys' eyes slanted.
"Yes, we've heard the story Mr. Mushiro." Marina piped in before the boy could make a nasty comment. "Tell you what Mr. Mushiro, I'll make a deal with you. This outfit has been passed down in his family for generations with the tale that it was removed from the shrine where the demon boy was entrapped for all eternity. The shrines existence is even recognized by the National government, his father works there and printed off some copies as proof of." Marina pulled an extra copy of the papers she had handed to Hikari earlier and nudged them to the demon boy. He took them and began unfolding them as she turned around and plucked them from his hands. "Here you go this should verify my story. Honestly he carries them wherever he goes it's really quite silly." The shop owner studied the papers, then leaned over to study the mans' clothing. ("This is a rare weave that's for sure it is dated to the same time as mine is, the color is rare and even sun bleached in the position this papers specifies how he was sitting. Weather damage like this would have taken several hundreds of years. There is no way this could have been recreated to such a fine detail.") The demon boy grew annoyed at the shop owner. He reared his hand back to stab him, but the shop owner grabbed his hand and shook it. "You've got a deal!"
Marina smiled her salesmanship had worked. "Now young man if you'll just step this way." Mr. Mushiro unlocked the glass case and took out the mint condition garment. ("You're welcome Mr. Mushiro now you really do own a demon's clothing.") The young demon emerged dressed in the blue garment from the glass casing. Mr. Mushiro whistled pleasantly of his triumph. The two garments would have been identical except one actually looked its age. The two left the shop, although the demon boy seemed annoyed. "What's the matter you look crossed?" "The nerve of that guy, making me barter for my own clothes!" Marina looked up at him in surprise. "You mean those really are your clothes." "That's what I just said wasn't it!?" "Had to personally kill the dragon demons used to make these they were just finished before I was sealed to that damn tree. I was on my way to pick them up. This is made from the whiskers of several different dragon demons, that ignorant shop owner was treating this like it was a piece of flimsy parchment." He dug his nails deep and hard into the fabric. Marina watched in amazement for she had felt the bite of his nails.
The two acquaintances walked through the crowd. Many children stopped and stared at the young man before being urged on by parents and older siblings. Marina lightly touched his arm and he whirled around ready to fight. "Ly, it's you." Marina moved her hand only so as to not get it caught when he moved. "What do you want?!" "It's just I don't know your name." He looked at her with such disgust, "What good will it do you, stupid girl?" "If I'm to travel with you, it would be befitting to know it." His eyes narrowed "travel with me, what gave you the impression I wanted your company?!" Marina twiddled with her sleeves a moment. The young demon boy grabbed hold of her hand. "Answer me!" She gently placed her hand over his. "I made a promise to myself, when I saw you there that I would help you no matter what you asked of me. no matter what the cost." He jerked his hand away from her tender touch. ("What good will this weakling human be to me... If nothing else I can use her against my parents. They would never harm such a gentle human as her.") The demon boy walked on with Marina following close behind. "Koyasha" "I'm sorry..." she stared puzzled at him. "My name is Koyasha!!" she smiled even though he yelled at her. ("Koyasha is it.")
"My names." "Marina right!" he interrupted. "Yes, I don't remember telling it to you though." "The only time anyone has said my name around you was while you were sleeping. But you couldn't.." "Just so you know the one on my forehead paralyzed me it didn't put me to sleep!" "Sorry I only knew what I had read." "Well you read a lie then." His fists clenched remembering his entrapment. Marina laughed inside at his temper, anything set it off. But something about him made her feel strong it made her feel whole for the first time. "Koyasha would you like to get cleaned up?" He glanced at her a moment. "I suppose." "Then I'll take you to my home with the Yamaki's." she irritated his censes. She had a familiar smell but it was hidden under her human odder. He rubbed his nose and glanced around. They came to a clearing in the crowd; Marina spotted three familiar figures affixed with worried and terrified expressions.
"YO-HO!" she waved as she yelled for them. Hikari glanced over startled and ran to her squeezing the breath from Marina's lungs. "YOU'RE NOT DEAD THANK GOD!!" The other two joined in welcoming back their friend from the dead. Marina struggled to breath under the pressure. The girls backed off and then noticed the figure that stood by her. The girls started to flee. "This is Koyasha." The three girl's coward a moment. "We're wasting time let's go!" "Hey, that's the kimono from my dad's shop." Riico's eyes slanted "How did you get it!" "I took back what was rightfully mine, Stupid Girl!" "Why you.!" Riico's fists clenched and prepared to attack. "No you've got it all wrong Riico. Koyasha traded your father for it." Riico looked suspiciously. "Then why did he say they were his?" Marina sighed "The garment was made for him by a tailor in his time." Riico was about to persist, but Koyasha yanked marina on his back and jumped high up in the air onto the roof of a shop. The girls stared up in disbelief of the feat. "Koyasha that was not kind you didn't even give me a chance to introduce you to the others." "I've seen all of them I care to."
Marina gripped his shoulder as he held her legs. The two headed off for the Yamaki's home, under the direction of Marina. Mr. and Mrs. Yamaki were still at the festival and would not be home for some time. Koyasha entered the home after Marina who had to unlock the door. She took off her sandals and escorted him to the bathroom. He studied the carpets and furniture with curiosity. He stared into the bathroom with bewilderment. Marina smiled, and remembered when she first had to take a bath. She instructed him on the use of each thing and how to wash and rinse before entering the bath. After her confusing tutorial he handed her the shampoo bottles. "You do it." She blushed "But, Koyasha you'll be well..you won't have clothes on that is and.." He had already removed everything but his undergarment. Her eyes wandered back from the ceiling and just caught a glimpse of his naked back side. Her face turned blood red and her eyes shot back up to the ceiling. "Would you stop mumbling already!" He shifted his head around to see her drop the shampoo and conditioner and bolt out the door. She stood outside the door heart pounding and gasping for breath. "I know I promised to help, but couldn't you at least cover your. well certain parts of your body first?" His ear twitched "I don't see what the big deal is. Why's she get so upset about me taking my clothes off it's a necessary step in bathing." He mumbled to himself.
Koyasha rapped a towel around his waist. "Ok you can come back in skits." He saw one eye peek in the door then slowly the rest of her emerged. Marina had put on a large butchers apron and tied her sleeves out of the way. She picked up the spray nozzle and soaked Koyasha. He jumped up in shock then sat back down. ("Why is the water so warm does she live over a hot spring?") Dirt residue began dripping from his hair. Marina picked up the shampoo and began working it through. She rinsed and repeated this two more times before being fully satisfied his hair had come clean. She put in and rinsed out the conditioner handed him a bar of soap and a washcloth. "Here you can do the rest" She blushed to herself ("What if he asks me to wash him too.") her face turned beat red and she left before he could ask.
Koyasha came out of the bathroom naked searching for his clothing, which Marina had taken with her when she left. "Girl Where are you!" she stepped out of the kitchen where she had been cooking lunch. She gasped and ducked her head back into the kitchen. ("I wish he'd stop doing that.") Her face was red with embarrassment again. ("Isn't he ashamed of anything he does?") He noticed his clothing on her bed as he walked down the hallway. He entered her room and was all kinds of posters and stuffed animals. Marina had a weakness for toys. He picked up one of her stuffed teddy bears and squeezed it. "What kind of deranged person takes animals and stuffs them to look like child's toys?" He threw the toy aside and picked up he neatly folded cloths. He looked over at the pictures on her desk. He saw a reoccurring background of plain walls cords and machines hooked up to Marina while friends and flowers surrounded her while she sat in bed faintly smiling. There where a few that didn't look like this but not many.
"Are you dressed yet?" Marina called from the hallway. "Yeah wimp." The smell of food caught his attention and he was lured out of her room. "I would eat almost anything, it's been so long." He peered into the kitchen where marina had disappeared to. He viewed the kitchen table as she set the fresh steamed rice down. She had cooked sukiyaki, the only Japanese dish she had ever learned to make well. She poured tea at each place and sat down. "Sorry if you don't like it, I'm not very good at Japanese dishes. I made a lot I didn't know how much you would eat." She scooped the rice till his bowl was full and handed it to him. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and began hungrily eating. She on the other hand had only a half bowl of rice a few vegetables and a little meat. She sat patiently waiting for Koyasha to demand more rice. He finally sat back rubbing his belly in ecstasy. Only a few vegetables remained in the pan and the rice cooker was empty.
"That's much better." He smiled enjoying his full stomach. She smiled and picked up the dishes to be washed. Her legs gave out as she stood up; Koyasha uncontrollably jumped up and caught both her and the plates at risk. She pulled away from his grasp coughing uncontrollably once again. Her lungs burned and ached but she couldn't stop coughing. She gent on her hands and knees and blood dripped from her mouth. The fit subsided and she tried to get up staggering a few feet and was forced back down. Koyasha watched her with curiosity and a bit of dismay. ("What ails this girl to make her so frail?") She took out her handkerchief whipped the blood from her hands and mouth. Then she knelt down and whipped up the blood on the floor.
She staggered into the kitchen turned on the faucet and rinsed out her handkerchief. Koyasha picked up the dishes and brought them to her. "What's wrong with you?" She took a hand full of water and rinsed the blood from her mouth. "No one really knows. I've been sick like this all my life." She wheezed and stared down. "They just don't want to believe me." He listened with more fascination. "But what I thinks no matter, I'm just a stupid girl, right?" "Well that's obvious." He said, irritated he had found any interest in this girls life. Marina picked up the dishes and began washing them. Koyasha grabbed her arm and pulled her away.
"What are you doing? I can't leave this mess for my host parents." ("So that's it she's a parasitic demon and it's taken this body host for too long. That explains the unusual smell.") He dragged her outside and threw her to the ground, jumped high in the air "Here's a little trick I learned from my father demon!" He stabbed his left arm with his right hands nails. "BLADES OF BLOOD!" Marina looked up as the magically charged drops of blood came whirling at her in the form of glowing red blades. Her eyes softened and looked into Koyasha's eyes. The attack seemed to be deflected right off her body. "What the Hell!" He landed on the roof of her borrowed home. "What the Hell are you!" A magic aura seemed to emanate from her heart. He jumped off the roof and stared at her. The light faded away from around her heart and she looked normal again.
She sat still unwavering with the same gentle gaze. "Damn it! Why aren't you afraid of me, you Stupid Girl!! I just tried to kill you!!!" she picked herself up and walked past him back inside the house. He stood blinking dumfounded a moment, then regained his composure. He slammed the door open. "Come back her girl! I'm not through with you yet!!" She walked down the hallway and turned around just as Koyasha leaped on top of her slamming her to the ground. The force knocked the wind out of her. He gripped his hands round her neck then noticed something he had missed before. Her heart beat at the same rate.no not the same rate but the exact same time as his did. She was calm and he was excited, yet their hearts beat right with each other at the exact same time. Her eyes rolled back and tears streamed from them. Koyasha pulled his hands away from her neck. Marina just tried to breathe he had hit her so hard.too hard.
Koyasha lifted up her nearly lifeless frail body. "There is something that connects us, but I can't tell what. Is it your strong will like mine........? No harm shall come to you ever again, not until I know your secrets. I promise.."
Ahhhh That took a while but it's done now.
So is he good or evil not too sure myself about that yet..
Next chapter 'Meet my little doll'
As someone did tell me the beginning of this fic sound a lot like the beginning of Inuyasha.
What can I say eh (shrugs shoulder)
Koyasha got a lot of his personality from his father let's just put it that way..
Anyway new Chapter
Inuyasha Beyond the Skin Chapter II (I promise..).
Marina dropped the two enchanted items she had been holding and grabbed hold of his wrist to take some of the pressure off her neck. His yellow eyes stared at his new captive with such hatred. "What year is it Girl?" Her ears boomed with the sound of her heart beat she felt her body loosing strength. Her eyes wavered and she began to fall unconscious. He let go of her neck and she dropped like a rag doll. Marina held her neck and began violently coughing. She pulled out her handkerchief and stained it lightly with blood. The young demon man grabbed her arm and lifted her to her feet. "Now you stupid girl answer me!" "It's 2022 during the Sakura blossom festival." She choked out. "2022" his eyes seemed to wander around looking at his surroundings.
He looked back at the strange girl. "You don't smell like a demon, but you don't look human either." He stared at her blue eyes, which stared back with a gentle gaze. Her calmness seemed to agitate him. "Well girl I suppose I should thank you for letting me loose." He sneered and his fangs glistened. "Now I have to find the well." "You mean the well that will send you to the past?" He jerked her closer. "What do you know about the well!?" Her eyes squinted in pain as his claws sunk into her arm. "Don't you think you should worry about something else first?" He gripped her even tighter. "Like what, I don't fear you!" She took her other hand and lifted the end of his tattered sleeve. He stared at the fayed and sun bleached garment, and let go of his grip on her arm. She quickly covered the wounds with her already blood handkerchief.
"I know a place where you can purchase another garment. He stepped sideways and slanted his eyes. "Well what are you waiting for!?"

She opened the gate and ventured out into the side street where no mist of any kind lingered. She looked back and saw only a screen of mist nothing of where she was could be seen. ("Why did it come back it's not supposed to be there today. Is it because I freed him and the other spirits are jealous?" I hope I'll have enough money to pay for what he picks out.")
He looked down at her impatiently. "Would you hurry up already!?" "I'm sorry." She continued walking over to the alley way and out into the festival. She forced back her cough which was threatening to show its ugly face again. She gritted her teeth together. ("I'm sure he can sense there's there is something wrong with me, but I can't let him know I'm as weak as he thinks.")
He looked out into the festival and stood in awe of the busy street. ("Is this the market place for her village?") People smiled and carried on oblivious to what walked among them. The two weaved through the crowd to a kimono shop. She entered ahead of him and stopped in the door holding her breath as a tickle began in her throat. The demon boy bumped past her knocking her to one side into a stack of kimono's on sale. He stood a moment and eyed the things in the shop, till his gaze met with an interesting artifact.

("This is a rare weave that's for sure it is dated to the same time as mine is, the color is rare and even sun bleached in the position this papers specifies how he was sitting. Weather damage like this would have taken several hundreds of years. There is no way this could have been recreated to such a fine detail.") The demon boy grew annoyed at the shop owner. He reared his hand back to stab him, but the shop owner grabbed his hand and shook it. "You've got a deal!"

"Had to personally kill the dragon demons used to make these they were just finished before I was sealed to that damn tree. I was on my way to pick them up. This is made from the whiskers of several different dragon demons, that ignorant shop owner was treating this like it was a piece of flimsy parchment." He dug his nails deep and hard into the fabric.

He dragged her outside and threw her to the ground, jumped high in the air "Here's a little trick I learned from my father demon!" He stabbed his left arm with his right hands nails. "BLADES OF BLOOD!" Marina looked up as the magically charged drops of blood came whirling at her in the form of glowing red blades. Her eyes softened and looked into Koyasha's eyes. The attack seemed to be deflected right off her body. "What the Hell!" He landed on the roof of her borrowed home. "What the Hell are you!" A magic aura seemed to emanate from her heart. He jumped off the roof and stared at her. The light faded away from around her heart and she looked normal again.
She sat still unwavering with the same gentle gaze. "Damn it! Why aren't you afraid of me, you Stupid Girl!! I just tried to kill you!!!" she picked herself up and walked past him back inside the house. He stood blinking dumfounded a moment, then regained his composure. He slammed the door open. "Come back her girl! I'm not through with you yet!!" She walked down the hallway and turned around just as Koyasha leaped on top of her slamming her to the ground. The force knocked the wind out of her. He gripped his hands round her neck then noticed something he had missed before. Her heart beat at the same rate.no not the same rate but the exact same time as his did. She was calm and he was excited, yet their hearts beat right with each other at the exact same time. Her eyes rolled back and tears streamed from them. Koyasha pulled his hands away from her neck. Marina just tried to breathe he had hit her so hard.too hard.
Koyasha lifted up her nearly lifeless frail body. "There is something that connects us, but I can't tell what. Is it your strong will like mine........? No harm shall come to you ever again, not until I know your secrets. I promise.."
Ahhhh That took a while but it's done now.
So is he good or evil not too sure myself about that yet..
