A/N Welcome to the awaited first chapter of Purity, sequel to Broken Heart
Broken Mind. It is necessary to read Broken Heart Broken Mind for future
reference, but not this chapter specifically. Chapters will increase in
length after this, it's the necessary set up chapter. This starts more
slowly than BHBM but it comes a peak as higher or higher than BHBM. Give it
a shot, hope you enjoy it!

Purity
Sequel to Broken Heart, Broken Mind
Time and space passed through the world. It altered lives and places. It left families torn asunder and lovers unfulfilled. It created chaos and destruction when the demons and spirits of the farther worlds haunted this land, infused with the spirits of evil from that continuum. For this purpose, the destiny of the miko's of Japan was formed. Mighty people, infused with the power to slay the demons and banish the spirits. However, when some of the demons began to move away from their past destinies, the miko's purpose became unclear. Through intermarriage arose half demons. Human-demon mixes that took the clear cut demon/human world and threw it into a pit of chaos. Unknowingly to the first miko's, their blood would one day come to the most worthy, but least expected person...
*******
Inuyasha stood on the hill overlooking the village of Kaede. The turbulent events of the last year still fresh in his mind, yet the love he found at the end was an even stronger memory. As he watched the village, his eyes centered down on the small hut of the outskirts of the village, the house the Shikon no Tama hunters now shared in this era of peace.
Over the past year, Miroku had finally gotten through to Sango, he got hit very few times now, and Shippou had grown up into a fine young fox demon. Shippou still lived in with them, though he was now an adolescent demon and came up to Inuyasha's shoulder and could fight better now. Although, he was still afraid by the larger foes that still roamed the earth and was still known to let Inuyasha handle the "really scary ones".
Kagome lived in with Kaede in her hut and Inuyasha had come to live there as well, yet he still claimed the forest as his own, and on some nights, Inuyasha would vanish into the forest of his imprisonment. Kagome didn't ask why, he seemed to need that time, she would find out later though. They lived with a newfound love, born of adversity and strengthened by trial. Of course, they still fought and Inuyasha, as always, was well acquainted with the ground. Most importantly, all of them were happy. The demons that attacked them or neighboring villages were never enough to cause fear for survival, but they were enough to sate Inuyasha's fighting spirit.
However, a new and sinister darkness was creeping over the horizon. Inuyasha had felt it for the past few days. Its darkness was familiar, like something he had encountered before, but had long forgotten. Within Inuyasha something awakened more and more as the darkness spread closer. Not even the miko's of the villages could sense it, it was an odd being, perhaps more dangerous than any they had ever faced. Inuyasha's intuition was never wrong, and something that could escape the notice of a miko could never be good.
"Inuyasha!" Came Shippou's strident yell "Kagome's looking for you! It's time for dinner!"
"Shut up brat!" Inuyasha growled back, "I'm coming."
Shaking off the feeling, he turned back to the new found love and warmth he had discovered within the village boundaries.
