Crystal Tears

Opening Statement

* I seem to have a slight obsession with Inuyasha and gang. I've seen where some of you say "I don't own Inuyasha, but maybe for a present". Well I don't own Inuyasha either. I don't want to. I would like to know him, be near him, and basically see him every day ^_^. So once again I don't Inuyasha. There I won't have to say it ever again.*

*This story includes just about the entire cast of Inuyasha and it does include some original characters. *

*I'm sure some one will say something about it so I thought I'd say it now to get it out of the way. There is a character Named Atria in this story. She is entirely my creation. I'm sure there are other people with characters of this name. This one is utterly mine. Don't try and tell me I stole her for I've been using her in about the same context since I can remember.*

*Now I know I may have sounded harsh but please forgive me I'm a little tired. So just a few warnings. *

*First I just wanted to let you know that the characters in this story are probably a little out of character. Sorry I had to do that in order to make it all fit.*

*Second just s few things that have been bugging me. As you know Atria is my character(being the only one I own) Well I thought you might want to know about her. (trying to keep it short) She's a Hanyou. I don't know if all Hanyous have ears like Inuyasha's but she dose. She has three items with her just about all the time. Her bow, her sword and a polished stone flute. She's special.(you'll find out how later)*

*Lastly. I don't know if anyone cares but I do. Sesshomaru's arm was never cut off(least not in my story) so there that's all sorry for taking your time up*

*Oh and please R&R Thanks^-^*

NOW ON TO THE STORY

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Part 1 Inuyasha

"Inuyasha," Kagome called.

He looked up from his Ramen. He growled. She was probably lost again.

"Stupid girl," he muttered.

He got up and walked towards her voice. He found her in a clearing kneeling next to something.

"Inuyasha look," Kagome said

He looked at what she was next to. A bow was lying on the ground. He started to yell at Kagome for leaving her bow lying around. He stopped before he began when he noticed it wasn't hers. The next thing he saw made his breath catch. There were feathers tied loosely to the top of the bow.

"Um.. Kagome, go back and check on Shippo," he said quietly

Kagome got up and looked carefully at him. She shrugged and did as he asked. Inuyasha crouched down and picked up the bow. He examined it. It was her's alright.

*Flashback*

A young Inuyasha and a small girl were running through a field. The grass in the field was almost as tall as them both. Inuaysha stopped and looked around. When he didn't see the girl he yells

"Hey you cheater"

When he saw her pop up a few feet away he lunged at her playfully. She disappears again. He looks around once more. She appears a few feet behind and tackles Inuyasha from behind. They roll around for a minute. All serious like they stand up and brush themselves off. The small girl looked at Inuyasha. She stepped towards him. He ignores her. She smiled and shoved him.

"Tag. Your it. Again," she said

She started running again with Inuyasha close behind her.

*Present*

When Inuyasha felt a hand on his shoulder he jumped up and whirled around to see who it was. He growled when he saw it was Miroku.

"Miroku," Inuyasha said dangerously.

Miroku backed up with his hands up in surrender.

"Sorry. Kagome was worried. She sent me to see if your okay," Miroku said

"Of course I'm okay," Inuyasha said indignantly

Miroku examined Inuyasha. He sighed and walked away. Inuyasha looked at the bow he still held in his hands. He tightened his hold on it and walked back to the fire.

"Something wrong," Kagome asked when he appeared

"No," Inuyasha snapped

Kagome handed him his bowl. He scowled at her when he saw her worried look. He walked over to the edge of the trees and sat down. He adjusted Tetsusaiga and laid the bow beside him.

*Flashback*

A somewhat older-but-still-young Inuyasha was sitting in a tree. He looked down and saw the girl, also somewhat older, running very fast. He jumped down and ran after her. He caught her when she went under a bridge. They stood in the icy water of a stream.

"Inuyasha," she said

"What is it? What's wrong," he asked

"I think he's mad at me," she said

They stood there for a moment. Her teeth started chattering. Inuyasha herded her towards the bank under the bridge.

"Who? Who's mad at you," he asked

Before she could answer they heard men's voices. They were discovered. She was grabbed roughly by the hair. She cried out as she was jerked backwards. She fell. They picked her up and drug her away.

*Present*

Kagome looked at Inuyasha. He hadn't touched his Ramen. Which was unusual for him. She noticed the bow by his side.

'That thing started his strange behavior,' she thought.

*All for now*

*What do you think. I have more if you guys want it.*

*Thanks for reading ^_^*
