Disclamer:Sorry, forgot this before. Hanyou means half-demon, and yokai means demon. this part is really short, but I'm using a library computer, not my own. Part 2 will come next saturday, and hopefully chapter 3.

Chapter 2: Sister, Oh Sister

No more then ten feet from them, she swung, and then shouted out "Silver Fang!!!" Kill them, she thought. 'That was what Sesshomaru said about humans, their useless.' She watched as the humans tumbled out of the clearing from the force of the blast. 'He's right. Kikyo betrayed Inu-Yasha, didnt she?'

"Humans can't be trusted." sesshomaru had told her when she came to live with him after Inu-Yasha's death. "They will only betray you, and kill you if you don't kill them first, my little Rimi. They will laugh at you when you try to make friends. Don't you remember the nobles at your mother's house." she could still feel 'Maru's arms around her. "Leave humans to their own business."

A tear ran down her face as she turned to swing again. The only human that she could have ever trusted was her mother, and she didn't even get to say good-bye.

Kagome wobbled as she stepped up off the ground, supported by Miroku. The force of the attack had pulled out the necklace holding the Shikon Shard. she saw Mar-Arimi bend over and drop the blade, clutching her chest.

"The shard......... too strong........please," Kagome stuffed the shard under her blouse, but it was too late. Miroku ran forward and caught her as she fell.

Mar-Arimi felt the human's arms, and tried to escape. "No...." she forced out, before falling under the seduction of a friendly face and strong, protecting arms. She fainted.

Author's note: I know it's a cliff-hanger, but the next part goes with chapter 3 more. Sorry. Really!
