What I Really Am
Chapter 3
Disclaimer: Ok I'm getting really tired of writing this: I don't own Inuyasha characters but I own Eve (she came from my imagination YAY)
Eve jogged ahead at a steady pace. She didn't quite know where she was going just that she had to go in that direction. Her mind began to wonder. Well, now I'm in feudal Japan. There are tons upon tons of monsters and demons who would not think twice about killing me for no apparent reason. And worse than that is that the humans would do the same thing. I wonder what I can do to defend myself besides turn into a dog? Eve thought. She stopped.
"Ahh, I'm going to need someone to train me!" She complained. Grumbling a little bit Eve began jogging again. Didn't Sesshoumaru say that his half brother is a half demon? And didn't he say that he traveled with a girl from my time? Ok now I know who I have to find; but how? She asked herself. She desperately tried to remember the description of his half brother.
"He has long silver hair, silver dog ears, amber eyes, and wore a red kimono." Eve said remembering the description. She smelled the air. All the scents jumbled in her nose.
"Ugh I can barely sort these scents out in half demon form, I'm going to need some serious practice. But I really need to find this guy fast, so I better just used me already trained dog nose." She complained to herself. In seconds she transformed into her German shepherd form and took another whiff of the air. The scent was about a day old. Using the scent she was able to create the image of Sesshoumaru's brother, a girl with black hair, a girl with brown hair, a young man with black hair, and the rest of the smells she didn't recognize. She barked in happiness that she was on the trail.
Using her police dog instincts she was able to run and track them fairly easily. After a few hours the smell got stronger and Eve picked up speed and ran on through the night.
Kagome, Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kirara were just beginning to wake up. Suddenly Inuyasha jumped from his tree and growled.
"What's wrong Inuyasha?" Kagome asked, yawning.
"Something's coming. It smells like a dog but I can't tell." He answered. At that moment Eve burst into the clearing. She slammed on the brakes (figure of speech peoples) and stopped, panting.
"It smells like a dog but it doesn't look like a dog." Inuyasha growled putting a hand on tetsusaiga.
"Oh calm down Inuyasha, it's only a German shepherd. It's a breed of dog. It's a tall German shepherd." Kagome explained to Inuyasha.
"Whatever, I still don't trust it." Inuyasha growled drawing tetsusaiga. Eve eyes widened and she turned into her half demon form.
"How does a sword that big fit in such a small sheath?" She asked a little afraid for her life.
"See I told you I couldn't trust her! She even smells of Sesshoumaru!" Inuyasha yelled. Everyone jumped up.
"Oi, don't hurt me!" Eve yelled and ducked as Inuyasha swung tetsusiaga at her head. When Inuyasha didn't stop she found she had no other choice but transform into her dog form and dodge the attacks. Finally Inuyasha realized that Eve wasn't going to hurt them he stopped.
"What is your name and what do you want?" Inuyasha demanded. She switched forms.
"Finally! Well my name is Eve and I came to ask for some help." She answered.
"Help with what?" Miroku asked.
"I would like, oh what did Sesshoumaru say his name was, oh yes, Inuyasha to teach me how to use my half demon abilities." Eve answered. Everyone gave her an odd look.
"Why don't you already know? Not to be rude but weren't you born that way?" Sango asked. Eve sweat dropped.
"Well not really." She answered and began to explain her story.
"How is it you died but came back alive even though it seems nobody brought you back?" Inuyasha asked thinking of Kikyo. (Oh just to let you know I an NOT a Kikyo fan so I shall try to fit in some Kikyo bashing hee hee) Eve shrugged.
"You were a police dog, that's amazing!" Kagome exclaimed. Eve blushed a little.
"Why is it your coat is so much different than the dogs here?" Miroku asked.
"I think it's because in the modern day there are over a hundred different breeds of dogs. Breeds are how you classify what type of dog it is because of its coat color, texture, length, and many other attributes. I'm a German shepherd. You can tell by the fact that I have ears that stand on my head, they don't droop, the way I stand, how I have a lock jaw type of thing, my coat, and the way I am protective and dangerous if provoked. I did some pretty serious damage to Sesshoumaru's arm because he scared me so I bit his arm and used the lock jaw thing and I hit the bone; I feel bad for that now but he really scared me. There are other breeds with the lock jaw but they look different and are used for different things." She answered. Inuyasha laughed when he heard his brother had been hurt.
"Dogs are used for stuff?" Shippo asked.
"Yes. In my time dogs are used for herding, pulling sleds sometimes, tracking criminals, that would be my job, hunting, and all sorts of stuff like that." She answered.
"Well I suppose I could train you but only for a few days." Inuyasha said.
"Thank you so much. I promise I won't bother you too long. I have something I have to do any ways. Oh and, what are your names?" Eve said. One week passed. In that time Eve learned Iron Reaver Soul Stealer, Blades of Blood, and other way to attack and defend using her claws. Also with a combined effort of the entire group she learned about all sorts of demons and things to expect on her way. So one week later she left.
"Goodbye perhaps we'll meet again!" Eve called as she walked away. Everyone waved goodbye as she slowly became just a speck in the distance. Eve took a whiff of air. Nothing but the smells of trees, dirt, and such entered her nose. She continued to walk down the path until she reached a fork in the path.
Go down the right fork.
Who are you?
I'm your instinct, better known as your conscious.
Oh, but why should I go right?
Are you stupid or something? I'm your INSTINCTS! You know that little feeling in the pit of your stomach that tells you what to do and is almost always right!
Yeah so, I still want a reason!
You left Sesshoumaru without a concrete reason, just a feeling.
So. . .
Well this is the same thing, dope!
Ok. Ok I get it I'm going right! Now can you go away!
Fine but you have not heard the last of me!
Eve took the path on the right.
For two days she traveled on that path when suddenly she began to smell water. She felt a very strong pull to go to the water.
"Well I am thirsty so I might as well stop and have a drink." She said turning off the path. After a minute she reached the stream and kneeled down to take a drink. She looked into the water and noticed there was a scene unfolding before her. There was a dog leading an officer right behind another dog leading another officer. They were in an alleyway chasing a man. Eve gasped, that was her in the front. Her master let go of the leash and she ran forward. She then jumped and the man pulled out a gun and shot her. As Eve fell her master ran up to her and kneeled down. He too was shot, and so was the other dog, Kane, and his master, Frank. Eve gasped and began to cry. The man that they had been chasing, ran off. Eve began to get very angry. She looked at the water and saw the man's face clearly and suddenly she knew his name.
"Naraku!" She yelled and bent over covering her head, hot angry tears flowing down her cheeks. Slowly she felt herself begin to lose control. Anger flooded through her veins. Purple stripes appeared on her cheeks and her eyes went from red to white.
"What about Naraku?" Asked a man's voice from behind her. She stood up and slowly turned around getting ready to kill whoever was behind her. For some reason her control began coming back. Her knees buckled and she grabbed her head. In a minute Eve looked up. Her eyes were back to normal and she had control back. She looked up at the man who had spoken to her. He was tall with black hair pulled back into a braid, amber eyes, black dog ears, a white kimono with some blue design on it, and had a something on his forehead that looked like a cross between a cross and a plus sign that was blue. He propped up a huge sword on his shoulder. He was very handsome and obviously very strong.
"That is one fatty old sword!" She explained, her eye widening at the sight of the sword.
"What?" The man or rather half demon asked a little perplexed that someone had just called his sword fat and old.
"Opps, I mean, that is a huge sword!" Eve corrected herself. She picked herself up then brushed the dirt off her jeans.
"Who are you?" The man asked rather rudely. Her clothes, the earring in her ear, and the way she spoke with an accent made him a bit confused.
"My name is Eve," She answered waving off the rudeness. "And yours would be?"
"Bankotsu." He answered.
Ok peoples another chapter done and this one is longer! YAY I finally figured out how to add in Bankotsu! I like just recently became a Bankotsu fan so hee hee! R&R akikusaalcemy (o I really need to change that so it has something to do with Bankotsu YAY)
