The Final Shard

Chapter One

Disclaimer: I DON'T own inuyasha! The only thing about this fic that I own is any original characters that I came up with. My friends own theirs. So don't sue me…cause it would just be a waste of my time, and yours.

A/N: This is the first Inuyasha fic that I'm posting on ff.net. And there may be more to come. But it all depends on your reviews. So please R&R!!!

Alone in a dark cave sat a demon. And in her hand she held a shard of the Shikon no Tame, the jewel of four souls. The very jewel that Inuyasha and company had searched long and hard to collect.

On a necklace that she wore around her neck she bore a jewel. A jewel that was a brilliant red color, and in the middle was a bright paranormal flame. It was the flame gem, and she was it's bearer.

"Now all I have to do is defeat the half-breed that holds the rest of the jewel." She whispered. "Prepare yourself inuyasha…because soon we shall meet. And it shall be your last encounter among the living."

Slowly she stood up. "Those damned priestesses won't be able to injure me at all with their spiritual powers once I get the remainder of the jewel." She thought bitterly.

This demon's name was Kansei. She was a gem bearer…but she was a demon? The village that she grew up in didn't like that she was in fact, a demon. So they tried to get rid of her. By sealing her in a spell for fifty years. But now she was awake, and angrily searching for the Shikon no Tama. So that she could finally escape the memories of her village forever.

She walked to the mouth of the cave. The rainy day fit her mood well…but she didn't like rain. She didn't like anything wet. But she stepped out into it anyway. "Today is the day." She muttered. "The day that I start my search for Inuyasha."

A/N: I'm sorry it's such a short chapter! I have the beginnings of a second chapter started. And it's already way longer than the first! So please don't make any hasty final judgments about it. Please review though! I need your support.
