Timeline
Soon I came upon a clear ahead of my. Though I had been there many times I knew it wasn't the place I had been so many times in e past. Perhaps it was because I could sense my death coming for it was. Or it could be the thick scent of human blood ahead. Had that scent been my brother InuYasha's doing?
My fatigue was beginning to set, for the light ahead of me began to swirl into the dark colors of the forest. Violently my insides thrashed about in my stomach trying to make their way up my throat. A strange scent fill my delicate nose, the smell was so nauseating that right there I vomited up my food.
Compelled by my senses to give myself a rest I leaned heavily against a small tree just long enough for my dazed vision to catch up with me. Just like that I began running after InuYasha with all my energy though it only produces half of my normal everyday speed. I was confused and hurt by why InuYasha had just attacked me. All my life I had been nothing but a sister to him.
Without a warning I realized I was falling towards the ground and I heard the bones in my left shoulder being crushed. I fell hard and my head hit a rock hard enough for me to bleed.
Not one to back down I almost instantly pushed myself back up and stood ready to defend myself if I were to be attacked again. But whatever it was that had hit me before hit me again between my shoulders in the back more quickly than the first time. The blow throwing me forward several feet before I slammed into a large tree.
This time I saw my attacker when I got up. Unfortunately whoever it was, they did not take their true form. For the one before me looked like InuYasha but he had a totally different scent about him. It was type of Youkai I had never before encountered.
"Who are you and why do you dare take the form of InuYasha?" I asked though sharp breathes of air. The Youkai smirked a smirk I knew could never be placed by the true InuYasha.
Yokio stood by her father trying to wake him, but unfortunately he would never wake again. Though the young Hanyou just couldn't seem to understand. She had tears in her silver eyes but they didn't fall. Yokio had been taught to never cry no matter what that could mean.
"Father wake, please wake!" she said in a weak voice. Her voice was sweet as honey and grief stricken at the same time.
Behind her a Youkai came out of his hiding behind the remains of a small house. The Hanyou turned around not sure what was going on. Her silver eyes were wet and big so the attacker was stopped for a moment, one single moment that allowed her to escape. But that did not stop his attack.
As the Youkai attacked Yokio screamed and a flare of blue flames devoured the Youkai attack. Then the girl ran up the dirt road as fast as her short legs could carry her. This was the way mother had run Maybe mother is ahead. Regrettably the Hanyou's Youkai mother was ahead, but she was on the edge of death when Yokio got to her mother.
"Mother!" Yokio screamed running to her mother's side. She didn't detect that there was a puddle of blood surrounding the woman; all Neko saw was her mother on the ground.
"Yokio run to the castle we just left. Get the lord and bring him back to help me," the Hanyou's mother said. Yokio nodded still not allowing the tears to fall. She got up and ran to the castle they had been leaving.
"I am Naraku," the Youkai said in a cold voice as he took a step near me that cause chills to run down my back.
"How is it that you dare attack a master? It could mean the destruction of you soul or and eternal torture that would never seize." I said through a pure glare of hate. Though I must say that at the time I felt no hate towards the Youkai. I was just confusion and curiosity toward him.
"For you are InuYasha's beloved sister. If you live you may ruin my plans to kill the stupid Hanyou." The cruel Youkai said obviously not aware that I myself was a Hanyou. How dare he attack me because of that pathetic jerk InuYasha who didn't even seem to care about me!
"I care not for that feeble minded InuYasha" I told this, Naraku, "Besides I can help you in more way alive than I could possible dead." I finished taking a step near Naraku. I dearly hoped he didn't notice that I was pretty weak.
The damned Youkai gave off a deadly smirk that if looks could kill would have indeed been the direct fault to my death.
"You, Koishi, shall be my mate then. I can tell by the way you are beginning to pale that you wouldn't last a minute in a battle against myself, Naraku. So you must agree." He said still smirking. Did he just call me Koishi? Oh how I had longed to be called that by someone for so long, but not by this particular Youkai.
Sesshomaru had always seemed remote form everyone. All her life with InuYasha Yokio had never once really paid and mind to the Youkai. But now she felt as though she had known him her whole life. What was this feeling that wouldn't leave. This feeling to put her head on his shoulder and never move. To be with Sesshomaru forever.
"Yokio I know I've always been distant but I knew I loved you the day you mother died" the young lord told Yokio. Yokio looked into his eyes and couldn't drop her gaze not matter how much it made her what to fall.
"I am not old enough to even be betrothed I am nothing but a child. So if you wish to be with me you must wait until the day I am old enough." Yokio told Sesshomaru.
"I shall wait then. Do not think I shall forget this Yokio for I will remember." Sesshomaru got up and left. Yokio smiled. 'No I will not forget this day either' she thought.
Some instinct that I had long ago locked away broke loose for in an instant I was standing there watching my dear InuYasha be hit by an arrow. As he was bound to the tree something fell from his hands. It was that foul jewel that had ruined my life. The Shikon no Toma. So now here it was destroying everything I had gained since my parents died.
No I could save InuYasha. That arrow would in time kill him unless I cast a spell that would preserve his life until the curse was broken. With my last breath I uttered the words.
Slowly my vision blackened. I couldn't breath. My body ached. But then it was all over. My life, it was over. Finally after so long of wanting to be free. Yet, why did it have to end like that?
Some people may have the notion that that is the end of this, but it is not! Stay tuned till next time. Read and Review! Please review. Sad eyes please.
