Chapter 4
Last Time
All the lights were turned out so none of them saw the half-demon that was right outside their window.
This Time
InuYasha's POV
There they are again. Those girls from before. I first saw them around the building that smelt of medicine, what's it called again? Oh ya. A hos-pitt-all. I remember feeling a pair of eyes watching me as I walked by and into the park. Only after safely entering the park did I look back. Imagine my surprise when I noticed that the person who had seen me had the same colour eyes as me. At least I think she does. I've been told my eyes are a brilliant amber colour. I have to go by what they say, considering I can't see my own eyes. Well, I could, if I just took the time to look into one of the glass things that show your reflection. Anyways. I was quite shocked to find that she had the same amber eyes. Those eyes aren't normal. I've never seen a human with those colour eyes. Could she be a demon? No. She has human ears. But she doesn't have a human's aura. Her aura is different. Could she be a half-demon like me? I couldn't be sure since her looks don't suggest a partial transformation, but she doesn't seem human either.
Oh ya. For your information I am a half-demon. I don't live here in this time. (Ya right. How could I stand to live here anyways) I live 500 years in the past also known as the Feudal Era. I can travel to this time through the bone-eaters well located at an abandoned shrine. I found I could travel to this time about 2 years ago. While fighting a demon I ended up falling in the well. To my surprise (and my noses horror) I found my self here, 500 years into the future. I nearly fell unconscious the first time I came here. The smells were overwhelming. (hence "and to my noses horror")It took me a while to get used to things. The first thing I did was find something to cover my ears. Oh ya. Did I mention I have dog ears? It's one of the unusual traits I was born with. Along with silver hair and amber eyes. These traits are what makes me a half-demon. It's also what makes me stand out in a crowd. Anyways. The first thing I did after finding something to cover my ears. Was look around of course. Imagine my distaste when everyone stared at me and was commenting on my unusual features. That's one thing I hat about being a half-demon. Everyone stares at you. Not to mention humans are afraid of you while demons try to kill you every chance they get. So you can imagine that I got the hell out of the main streets. After walking around a bit I smelt a lot of medicine as well as the smell of death. You have to know that I have to check it out. Considering every time I've smelt death it usually ends in me fighting a demon. Like I cared. I made it to the source of the smell not long after. All I saw was a building. Not like the ones back home, but one made out of a funny material. I still have no clue what it's called and anyways, why would I care? After walking around it a while I started to get bored. After listening to some humans talk I found out this place was a hos-pitt-all. A place where sick and injured people could go to get help. I, off course, lost interest after that. After walking away is when I felt those eyes staring into my back.
So anyways I'm back to where I started, those eyes. I didn't have much of a chance to get a look at her because she then walked away from the window and out of my sight. I decided to go back to where I first arrived here. I decided to stay here a while and see if there was anyone who could help me on my quest. Oh ya. I forgot to tell ya. I'm on a quest. You see, there is this jewel called the Shikon No Tama or Jewel of Four Souls that I'm looking for. I hat the fact that I'm a half-demon and I'm searching for the jewel so that I can wish to become a full demon. The Jewel of Four Souls can grant a person one wish. I want to become a full demon so that I can live my life without being hunted or hated. But I cant' do that right now. The stupid priestess who protects the jewel broke it and now I'm on a quest to retrieve the shards. The only thing is that I know that I can't do it on my own. I've been searching for people to help me but not just anyone. I want people who don't care what I am. Oh, and of course people who won't kill me. So far I haven't met anyone with those qualities. Maybe there is someone(s) that can help me here. Great, now all I can think about is the girl with the amber eyes. Hey, maybe she can help me. What am I thinking, of course she won't help me, for one, she doesn't even know who I am. Two, I'm a half-demon, who in there right minds would help me. Three, why would she leave a happy life here to go and try to be killed everyday. sigh there goes that idea. Well we'll see how tomorrow goes.
The Next Day
Another stare-filled day ahead of me. Might as well get it over with. I noticed more people staring at me today than yesterday. I found out later why. In my "hurry" to find someone to help me, I had forgotten to grab the thing that had covered my ears the day before. Well I'm smart. Not. Now I had to live with the comments and pointing until I could return to the shrine again. Damn.
Well that went well. No a single person. Well, I kind of figured that though. Damn. Well, I better return home. Hopefully that well will let me go home. If it doesn't I don't think I could learn to live here. I'd probably die before then. Damn. Another person is staring at me again. Wait. Why does it feel familiar. I decided I would find out why. That had to be one of my best ideas that day. I found out why the person staring at me felt familiar. After rounding the corner I looked back. Imagine my complete surprise when I recognized the person as amber eyes. Then again maybe this wasn't one of my best ideas considering she turned around as she entered the building and caught my eye. Great. Now she knows I'm looking at her. At least I got a better look at her this time though. Besides the amber eyes she has knee length brilliant red hair done up in a single ponytail. She had on a low-cut baby blue tank top that I found brought out the colour of her eyes. I also noticed a rose was etched onto her shirt right over her right…. Never mind. She also had on a pair of faded jeans that accented her curves perfectly. She was also with two other people but before I could get a good look at them they had already entered the store. I waited for them so that I could follow them.
Damn. Do these people ever stop? After leaving that store with food they went home. I found out where they lived. It was a nice little house just outside the little town. Almost like those used where I came from. Though it was a lot bigger. I decided to wait for them here as they left the house again. The finally returned back. They went to bed already too dammit. Now I have to wait until tomorrow to talk to them. Damn. WAIT! I'm not actually going to talk to them. Am I? Great. What am I getting myself into. Well tomorrows another day. I better wait here. Damn. Life sure is complicated.
WEEEEEELLLLLLLLLL. There it is. Chapter 4. Now we know who the "mystery half-demon" is. Pffft. Like we didn't know who it was already. It WAS kind of obvious. Lol. Now. I better go and try to work on another chapter of Race Against Time. If I can I hope to have it up within the next few days. Also I would like to try and get another chapter done of this story for this weekend. So I better go. Ja Ne!
