Nintai's Dream
"Mommy, where are you taking me?" asked the young brown haired hanyou who was holding her Mommy's hand as she was walking.
"Nintai, Mommy can't be with you much longer. Mommy has to go fight with the bad monsters so she can protect the village." Said the mother.
"But Mommy, where am I going? After Daddy left us and went up there…" the young girl pointed at the sky. A single tear ran down the mother's face. The young Nintai continued…
"I am too little to be by myself Mommy! I am only this many years old!" The young Nintai held up five fingers. The Mother picked up her child up and hugged her for a long time.
"I am so sorry Nintai…but…I am going to do what's best for you. I do not want you to get hurt. Someday, you will return to your home and I promise I will see you again. But for now, you must forget your past."
"No Mommy I want to remember you and Daddy! Mommy please no!" Nintai wept into her mothers arms.
Nintai's mother then set her child down, pressed the palm of her hand on young Nintai's forehead.
"Nintai…I am so sorry. I love you with all my heart. Your memorys will one day return to you."
Nintai began to change into a human The young Nintai then closed her eyes and dozed off into a peaceful sleep, forgetting her past, and then disappeared into a purple light.
end of dream
Nintai (now adult and back into reality) slowly opened her tear filled eyes, and wiped them on the sleeve of her shirt.
"Now I remember…"
Nintai slowly stood up and walked out of her cabin and into the night.
"Mommy…" Nintai jumped up onto the roof of the cabin and sobbed.
Inside the cabin
Inu's dream
"Choose Inuyasha, Kikyou, or Kagome." A dark voice emerged from the sky.
Inuyasha started to panick.
"I can't chose, I just can't!"
"Choose now Inuyasha or I will kill them both!" The dark voice rumbled.
" I CHOSE…
end of dream
Inuyasha slowly awoke because of his sensitive nose. 'Wow, what a weird dream…' Then Inuyasha noticed why he was awoken. He smelt tears. He opened his eyes and looked around. He saw Kagome sleeping on her futon with Shippo. He looked at Kagome, and could tell she was troubled. She had gone to sleep before everyone else, saying she had a headache. She kept silent the rest of the night. Just laying in her sleeping bag. Even in her sleep, she looked so…sad.
'Kagome, what are you thinking about…is it true what Kikyou said? Do I love you?'
He was then snapped out of his thoughts, wanting to figure out who had been crying. He looked around the rest of the cabin. He saw Miroku sitting up and sleeping cautiously, and Sango snuggled up to Kirara.
Then he noticed the empty futon. He went up to it and sniffed it. Yep, that was defiantly the salty smell of tears. Inuyasha's keen ears then sensed someone crying. He followed the sound outside and onto the roof. There he saw it. Nintai was crying.
Inuyasha…not knowing what to do in this situation, just plainly said…
"Hey, uh, shouldn't you be back in the cabin resting? You did lose a lot of blood you know…" Nintai looked up with him with her empty green eyes.
"You're Inuyasha, right? Well um…I'm fine, just, leave me alone!" She yelled at the puppy hanyou (A/N: puppy ).
"FINE I WAS JUST TRYING TO HELP!" Just as he was about to leave, he heard Nintai talking in a shaky voice.
"I…I remember now." Inuyasha turned around in curiosity.
"Remember what?"
Nintai sighed.
"Well, very long story, would you like to hear?"
Inuyasha slowly nodded and sat down across from Nintai.
"I was born from a great priestess and a demon. My Father, who was half dog demon half wolf demon, which explains my wolf tail and dog ears, mated to the Priestess. I had a good life, until I turned 4. That's when my Father was killed. My Father was killed by his Father, who is my grandfather, because he fell in love with a mortal. But my grandfather would not dare mess with my Mommy, she was far too powerful for him to handle. But my Mommy found out about my Daddy's death, so she killed my Grandfather." Nintai hugged her knees and rested her chin on them. "We both missed Daddy very much."
Nintai's talking voice was still very shaky, and Inuyasha had a sad look in his eyes, because this story reminded him of his own past life.
"Anyway, one day, when I was five, my Mommy took me out deep into the forest, and told me that I had to leave her. She said she had to go fight with many demons, and that it would not be safe for me to stay with her. I cried and cried, but she finally decided that what was best for me would be to forget my past. She erased my memory and sent me 500 years into the future, where I was found on the street and was adopted."
Inuyasha had both of his ears perked up in interest (A/N: ears…so…soft touches).
"Well, what happened after that?"
"Nothing really. Except…well…I am not ready to talk about it yet. It is to painful to think about…" Then Nintai started sobbing. Of course, she was thinking of Kakaru. Of course, Inuyasha did not know what to do in this situation, so he did the only thing he could do, try to give comforting words.
"Nintai, my past is like yours. Both my Mother and Father were killed in battle, and I was driven out of my village for being a half-demon…"Inuyasha continued on to the whole story from Sesshomaru to Kikyou to being pinned to a tree for 50 years to Kagome coming out of the well to Naraku (A/N: you all know the story…).
Nintai let out a little sniffle.
"Wow Inuyasha, you had it as hard as I did. You know, it's nice talking to you about this stuff, you know, hanyou to hanyou." Inuyasha blushed and started to scratch the back of his head. "Well yea, I, Um…"
Nintai interrupted.
"You really do love Kagome, don't you?"
That's when Inuyasha's sensitive side disappeared.
"I love Kikyou, I owe my life to her. I will never stop loving her. Got that?" He said those words in a monotone voice, no emotion. Deep down inside, he knew he loved Kagome.
Nintai sweatdropped.
"Hehehe, got it."
Just then, something popped into Inuyasha's head.
"Nintai, what was your Mother's name?"
"Huh? Oh, her name was Midorkio."
Midoriko was Nintai's Mother.
