"Some herbs need picking, Mari" yelled her sister Kaliya

"Yah, I'll go right now" she yelled back and ran to the fields.

She went to the fields and started picking some rosemary "Why do the fields have to be so far away from the village" she sighed and continued picking the herbs.

Everybody always said she was the raining beauty of the village, the jewel in haystack full of needles if you mind. She had long black hair and great green eyes filled with caring feelings for others, she had rather pale skin and she always wore a green and golden brown kimono. She lived in a village of sages and her half sister was the strongest sage in the village,but being the wolf demon that Mari was ,she preferred to use strength and agility to overcome her foes.

Suddenly as she was picking the tea tree plants she caught the scent of a demon, a very strong demon. She raised her head and looked into the evening sun, she saw the dark clouds and caught a scent the demon"Such a horrible scent" she thought as she rubbed her nose and then she heard a scream and she caught the scent of human blood.

"I hope Kaliya is okay" she thought as she sprinted back to the village.

What she saw was heart breaking and brought tears to her eyes, there was blood everywhere and the scent of that horrible demon smell was overpowering. She spun around to see the demon that had slane her village.

"Hello half breed" He said giving a sniff "Give over the jewel shard".

"Who are you" Mari said fighting back her anger "and what do you want".

"Well I am Naraku and I have come for the jewel shard" He said manically.

"I know not of any jewel shard" She yelled back.

"How could you not, or was your dear little sister keeping it under a barrier" He questioned.

"I don't know, and where is my sister" you yelled.

"Oh she is in that barrier over in that hut" he said striding over to it and thrusting a hand inside the hut

She heard a scream and saw him lifting out Kaliya by the neck and she watched in horror as he strangled her.

"NO! DON'T" She yelled, but it was too late, Kaliya was dead.

"Ah and there's that jewel shard" he said as he watched in sick satisfaction as the shard dropped from her cold dead hand

"YOU BASTARD, COME AND FIGHT ME LIKE A MAN"she screamed.

"Sorry kid I don't fight little children" he said as he flew into the air cackling.

"I'M NOT A KID, I'M 17" she yelled as he disappered into the sky.

Mari dropped to the ground and cried ontoher sisters body, Kaliya was dead, all the villagers were dead, and all she could do was cry. She started digging graves numbly, as if she were floating on clouds, stopping ever so often to wipe a tear from her eye. After she had buried the bodies, she stood up off the ground and started off into the pitch black night.
