Ten'nen
Prologue
This is a story mostly about my original character for the series Inuyasha, Mesuken. Mesuken is Inuyasha's childhood friend who was sealed away by Kikyo in a crystal coffin. This story begins with her escape from the coffin. This story deals with Mesu's hardships since her escape. Rated R for language and lemons in later chapters. Note, I don't own Inuyasha or any of its characters. This is my first fanfic so read and review, but please be gentle. Enjoy .
The sound throbbed in her head, coaxing her awake. Her mind stirred, thoughts being awakened after their fifty-year sleep. 'What the hell is that goddamned noise?' she thought. The thump-thump-thump continued to echo in her ears. 'It's my heartbeat.' she thought. 'I'm ... alive?' it was a question more than a thought. Her eyes shot open only to see the haze of brown darkness around her. She lay in a simple coffin, only it was made of crystal. She tried to move her arms only to find she had not the strength to do so. 'Damn Kikyo' her mind hissed. The priestess Kikyo had confined her in that infernal coffin as an attempt to seal her away forever. She growled at the memory. Her mind filled with rage, hatred, and anger, numbing all thoughts but escape, than revenge. The rage filled her with strength, allowing her to freely move, even in the constricted space. Her hands moved to the lid of the coffin, her claws scraping at the crystal surface. A sigh escaped her lips as she lay, thinking. How long had she been there? Had the world changed much? Was her beloved sword still in the care of Totosai? These were only some of the thoughts that plagued her mind. Then her thoughts turned to Inuyasha, the only person in the world she loved, the only one who understood her pain. She clenched at the cloth under her as she thought of him and Kikyo, and of how Kikyo had tried to kill Inuyasha. The rage then surfaced yet again, but this time, it was worse. The raged turned to a fire and coursed through her veins, making her burn with the desire for vengeance. Then, she screamed. The intensity and pitch of her voice shattered her prismatic prison, allowing the earth to pour in. The pressure of the flow of dirt lodged the shards of crystal into her body. But even the intense pain didn't stop her from clawing her way to the surface. Her clothes had been torn, and her body ripped into, but she had escaped. Her eyes turned to the night sky as she breathed her first breath of fresh air in fifty-years. As she stared at the starry sky she screamed out at the top of her lungs, "Hear me Kikyo! I, Mesuken, have escaped my crystal confines! And know this! When I find you, YOU WILL DIE!!"
Well here it is, the first chapter of Ten'nen. Sorry it's so short, but I promise some of the next chapters will be longer. The next chapter will be up as soon as possible. Hope ya'll enjoy.
