Wow, my first Inuyasha fic. Don't make fun of me! It's my first time for Inu!

This is actually about a certain member of the Shichinin-tai. A certain leader… yes, you're right. Bankotsu. He is my favorite character besides Inuyasha and Miroku. Well whatever. Here is my story. Oh and also… I might put myself in here… WHAT! I LIKE BANKOTSU! Anywho here it is.

The Gift

A little boy was walking through his village when his dad yelled at him to come home. (In a nice way.) He ran to his home, with his dad standing in front of the hut. He had a big smile on his face.

"What is it dad?" the boy said.

"I have something for you." His father said with much glee.

The boy followed his dad into the hut, where he saw a huge object covered in paper. He had no idea what it was, but soon he would find out. He looked at his dad with a confused look.

"Well, open it." His father urged.

He walked up to the 'package', and slowly opened it. His mom and dad standing behind him smiling. Once he got it open, he went wide eyed. He couldn't believe the size. And neither could he believe what it was.

"A halberd? Wow, look at its size!" The boy said with major excitement. (I don't know how he got his sword, so I made something up.) "But aren't I to young for such a weapon?"

"Oh son, you will grow into it. Oh, and also, you can make a wish on it. Go ahead, make a wish." His father said. His mother agreed.

The boy walked up to the gigantic halberd and put his hand on it. He closed his eyes and made a wish. His parents didn't have a clue what he wished for, and they're better off not knowing.

Once he was done, he ran his hand over the blade. "It's so shiny, and um… big."

His mother laughed. "You're so funny, Bankotsu." She ruffled Bankotsu's hair and hugged him.

"Mooooooom. Stop it! You're messing up my hair." Bankotsu complained. He tried to pick up the halberd, but it was too heavy. "Oh come on! How am I supposed to get used to it?"

"No worries, you will strong enough. In the future my son." His father said.

Bankotsu went outside to tell his friends about his gift. He finally found Jakotsu in the fields. He yelled after him.

"Jakotsu! Guess what!" he yelled.

"Um, what?" he replied.

"I got a halberd!"

"No way! Really?"

"Yeah, come check it out!"

Bankotsu and Jakotsu ran to tell their other friends, and headed toward his hut. All the kids stared at the huge beauty. Their mouths drooling with jealousy. Bankotsu name the sword 'Banryu' once everyone told him to name it. He was happy. He was more than happy, he was proud. He doesn't know where his dad got the money to do this for him, but he was extremely grateful. How could he not be, it was pretty much an honor to have a gorgeous weapon. Especially since he is so young. 9 to be exact.

For the rest of the day he smiled happily, unknowing of what is going to happen next.

HAHA! I'm evil! So evil! Please let me know what you thought of it. I know it was really short, but most of my first chappies are short, but once I get going, they'll start to get longer. Please R&R! Thanx, Bye.
