Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Inuyasha characters in this fanfiction.

AN: I know that this fanfiction has not been updated in quite some time. I did mention that I wasn't sure as to the updating-schedule of my fics thus far. I am also aware that the prologue bore a striking resemblance to the movie Anastasia. That was my intent. Please read, review and enjoy.

SangoStasia

Chapter One

Run

- Last Time –

The touching moment was suddenly interrupted with the glass chandeliers that hung so elegantly from the roof began to tremble, the light they gave off flickering into nothingness. And inside strode a very angry, very DEAD Naraku.

- Now –

His body gave off a frightening, ethereal, green glow. While the other girls in the room started to whimper Sango strode up and kicked the former-member-of-the-court in the shins.

"AAARGH! Wretched Child!"

Running away into the arms of her grandmother Sango watched as Naraku and her father shared a passionate conversation. The air was thick with animosity and even at her tender age she could sense it.

"You were banished from this court how dare you show your face Naraku?"

"How dare I show my face?! How dare you question me?!"

"I am the Czar of Russia and I will not stand for this."

"I MADE you what you are . . . and I can TAKE it away!!"

"I'd like to see you try Naraku!"

At that the glow that was coming from Naraku swirled and formed two large hands, they wrapped themselves around the Czar's neck and he gave a strangled cry as he felt the life be squeezed out of him.

"RUN."

Sango didn't have any time to register that her father had just died. She could tell that she was being pulled by her arm towards the back exit of the palace. But she soon realized that her mother had stayed behind. Pulling her arm free she began to ran towards her when she watched one of the grand chandeliers that had hung from the ceiling fall, manipulated by the green aura, and crush her mother.

"MAMA!"

Screaming she felt herself be picked up and carried away by her grandmother.

As the remnants of the royal family ran they were each separated by the guards whom Naraku had caused to be under his control. Sango watched desperately as they were each shot, or butted to death by the muskets they carried. Their route to the back exit now cut off Sango closed her eyes and prepared to die when she heard a voice.

"Hey. . . over here."

Turning she could see a young boy, not a year older than her, as he motioned from the Dowager Empress and herself to go into the kitchen.

"You can get out through here!"

There was a small, round opening that opened from behind a pantry shelf in the wall. As her grandmother pulled her into it she felt something fall from her hand.

"My box!"

Growling the boy pushed her in and shut the trap door, pushing the pantry back into it's place. Just as he bent down to grab the object from the floor he felt his neck be gripped by a guard.

"Where did they go boy?!"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

He felt something cold hit the back of his head, and he blacked out.

AN: As I said before it's SUPPOSED to be like the movie.
