Hello, my fellow readers and reviewers! As you well know these up coming chapters are

memories so don't fret! You need to know this stuff so you know the characteristics of

all the characters. I planned to just do 5 chapters on memories and go on with the

story but I looked at my summary and found out that I said some M/S parts. So because

of this I have to make it 6 chapters if you people don't mind. ^_^ Now on with the

story. Oh, and BTW I do not own Inuyasha or any other characters.

Chapter 3:The First Encounter of Seshomaru

He smiled. "Hang on tight!" he said jumping onto the ship. He put me down and patted me

on the head then walked away. I couldn't believe he said that! I was so shocked I

didn't move for the remainder of trip.

The beach that I was sitting on enjoying was my second home, or rather my first home

without my mother, and with my father....

"We settle here!" my father yelled, and everyone exited the ship. "Inuyasha, come here.

I want to show you something. You too Seshomaru!"

Seshomaru? Who's that? I wondered.

"Look, you see that?"

I looked to see the mark of an eye, it was painted white and was embedded in the brown

colored ship. "What is it?" I asked.

"Foolish half-breed."

I looked up to see a boy, no a demon boy a little taller than me with silver hair. He

was wearing a warriors kimono of royalty with a piece of armor on his right shoulder.

He must be Seshomaru. I thought.

"It is but a mere piece of the ancient Noh Mask." he added.

"Very good Seshomaru. Inuyasha do you know the old legend of the Noh Mask?" asked my

father.

"Yes. He who posseses the ancient Noh Mask rules the entire human race." I answered.

"That's good. You will make me proud to call you son." he put his hand on my head. "I

just know it." he said.

"Father, but what means are you to call him son?" asked who I assumed was Seshomaru.

"Huh? Oh, that's right. I forgot to tell you guys. Seshomaru, Inuyasha? Seshomaru this

is your younger brother Inuyasha." he said putting me face to face with 'Seshomaru'.

I looked at Seshomaru, and he looked at me.

"He s but a mere half-breed. How can he be one of us father?" asked Seshomaru.

"I probably should have been more pacific, Inuyasha is your younger half-brother. He's

my son but his mother is human."

"I see. So he's been with her for most of his life." said Seshomaru.

"Yes and I expect you to show respect, as well as you Inuyasha." he said.

"Master! Master, Inu-Taisho!"

"What? What, is it?" he asked.

"There are new arrivals, sir."

"So. Let them on the island."

"Well, there not from our ALI-ance, sir."

"Oh. I see."

"Father, I don't appove of this half-breed. I want him gone." said Seshomaru in a

disgusted voice.

"I'm sorry Seshomaru, but Inuyasha does not require your approval." said Inu-Taisho.

"What?"

"You are my son and so is Inuyasha, and just because you don't like him doesn't mean he

goes away like everything else you despise."

"May I ask why not?"

"Seshomaru, if one of my men disliked you I would not just throw you out."

"Because I am your son, and future heir."

"Yes, and so is Inuyasha." said Inu-Taisho.

Seshomaru glares at me and says,"Which means eventually you will have to choose between

Inuyasha take over as head."

Inu-Taisho looked at his two sons. He hadn't made that decision yet. Seshomaru had

caught him of guard. Seshomaru had obviously gave a lot of thought to Inuyasha's

arrival. "Yes, I will." he stooped down to meet at both of his sons eye level. "But

that doesn't that you two can't get along." he said smiling. "I must be going. You two

behave yourselfs." he said and left with the servant.

"Inuyasha?"

"Seshomaru?"

"Don't think for one second that you are my equal. I will be ruler of this clan and

soon afterwards Supreme ruler of this world. I am Superior to you in every way, and

there is no way I will stand by and let your half-demon blood rule what is to be ruled

by me." said Seshomaru.

Inuyasha looked at Seshomaru and said,"You don't have to worry. I want to have nothing

to do with this clan what so ever."

Seshomaru was taken a back, he thought for sure anyone in their right mind would want

father's title as well as his riches. This confused him. And Confusion made him mad.

"Why do you wish to take exempt in father's legacy?"

"That's just it. Father. I despise him! And I want nthing to do with him or his stupid

legacy! As far as I'm concerned, you can have it all! I don't want it!"

"Inu-Taisho will not have you be useless." Seshomaru said. His fathers words still ech-

od in his head: 'Seshomaru I expect you to show respect to Inuyasha.' Or something

along those lines.

"I'm aware of that, and I'm not useless."

It was obvious and pretty clear that HIS father had immense feelings

for this half-breed child. It was as though he LOVED this 'Inuyasha'. "It seems that

Inu-Taisho is very fonde of you. Does THAT change you hatred of him?" he added.

"Yes, I am aware of his feelings toward me. He claims he loves me but I don't believe

him and I don't care. To me, it all ends the same, he killed my mother and will forever

despise him!"

"If what you say is true, then you know you have no where else to go. You will have to

reside with this clan wherever it goes."

"I'll make it somehow." I said. I turned to walk away when I felt a hand on my

shoulder.

"I do not carry such hatred for father, but, despite our differences I shall show you

around the area." said Seshomaru.

"You don't have to," Inuyasha siad showing half a smile. "I can find my way around-"

"Inuyasha? When I take the time to make a kind gesture in any way it would be wise to

accept it for the opportunity will not show itself again. For I am normally rutheless

and show no mercy."

Inuyasha a little freaked out by that evil tone voice Seshomaru just displayed

swallowed hard,"*Gulp* uh... s-s-sure."

"Good." said Seshomaru returning to his origional voice,"But, first, lets get you some

new clothes."

Inuyasha looked at his clothes to see he was covered in blood. 'Mother.' he solemnly

thought. He was going to give an explanation when he noticed Seshomaru was leaving.

"Hey! Hey, wait up!" I yelled catching up with Seshomaru.

Yeah, yeah. Thats the 3rd chapter. ^_^ No, I'm actually glad I've been updating at a

fast rate. Yes! I'm finally dedicated! Haha! Well thanks for all the praise and R&R!
