Chapter 1: Beginnings
"Get him!"
"He's over here! Do not let the whelp escape!" Men's voices were heard all over the forest in old Japan, Sengoku Jidai. From a distance of the men, a small red and white figure ran further and further.
The little boy fell to the ground, tripping on a rock. Already covered in bruises, scraps and scars, he didn't mind another. He simply got up and continued to run. He looked like a very young human boy...no...a demon boy...maybe a...hanyou? But whatever he was, he looked as if he was only a small child, maybe around 3 years old. Though small, he still had a lot of power in him and he didn't show any signs of slowing down on the pursue over him.
Arrows were shot, but none hit. Thankfully, the young boy made it to an abandoned hut and hid quietly. Too stupid to look, the men that were in his pursue just ran passed the hut and eventually gave up.
Once the coast was clear, the boy slowly came out from his hiding place. He sighed deeply with relief. "Why do they chase me?...Am I bad?..." Not knowing any of the answers to the questions that popped in his head, he looked to the ground. His long silver hair covering his face as he began to walk away from the hut. Not to get away from just those men...but from everything.
------ NEW POV------
It was an early morning in Tokyo. The sky was blue and the sun was shining its beautiful rays on the loving mother earth. A small shriek could be heard coming from a rather large shrine, Sunset Shrine to be exact. "Oh my god!!! I'm late! Inuyasha is going to kill me!" The girl ran around the house, stuffing clothes and other necessities of a young girl into a large yellow bag.
After about 20 straight minutes of yelling and running around the house, the young girl, we all know as Kagome Higurashi, ran out of her home and towards an old well house. Once there, she pushed open the doors quickly, revealing what seemed like an old well. Kagome ran down the squeaky stairs and jumped into the well without any hesitation.
Some sort of strange purple light surrounded the young miko, yet she showed no signs of fear, she was used to this. After she felt the ground beneath her feet once again, she smiled and looked up at the clear blue sky from the opening of the small well. With a few grunts and grumbles, Kagome made it out of the well within minutes, a new record for her. She smiled at her accomplishment, but it was soon interrupted by a familiar voice, "It's about time wench! What took you so long? You were suppose to be here 2 hours ago! I was about to come over there and-!" But two can play that game of interruption, so it was Kagome's turn, "I'm sorry Inuyasha, but I woke up late is all." That being her alibi, she smiled at the dog-eared boy and began to walk away towards the forest.
"Feh..." Was all the hanyou, Inuyasha, could say. He was happy now that Kagome was here, but he dare not show it. Inuyasha followed her into the forest a few feet beside her, then caught up with her and walked beside her. His arms crossed as usual, each sleeve touching the edge of the other sleeve, his eyes cast forward and ears perked, as if he had a radar on his head listening for anything that moved.
Kagome looked over to Inuyasha and giggled, she loved it when he was in "radar mode." Inuyasha just rolled his eyes at her reactions and continued to wait and search. Just then, Inuyasha's ears caught a very unfamiliar sound. "Kagome...I hear crying, children crying."
Kagome was shocked. She looked over at Inuyasha, "Are you sure? Which way?" Kagome was always ready to help, may it be adult or child, it was in her blood to help others.
Inuyasha pointed northeast, the precise direction of the noise. Kagome nodded and she began to run towards where he pointed. Inuyasha following beside the young girl. In all these 3 years of searching with Kagome, he'd rarely hear children crying. Maybe once in a while, but this was different. Crying is an emotion caused by grief and sadness, but this...this crying was as if, it was a last plead. Inuyasha really didn't understand what he was thinking, but whatever it was that was crying, he wanted to stop it. The one thing he couldn't stand was crying.
After jumping over fallen trees, over cliffs and ditches, and even fighting off a small demon, they finally reached the source of the crying. A tree? "What the hell Kagome...this is a tree. Trees don't cry!" Inuyasha protested, obviously confused beyond belief.
"It's not the tree." Kagome spoke softly as she moved around the tree and looked into a small hole. Her eyes widened and she nearly fell back at the sight she had just witnessed.
"Kagome? You okay?" Inuyasha began to walk towards her.
"Go get Miroku and the others now." Kagome's voice had change, instead of soft and gently, it was...full of fear and was demanding.
