Author's Note: Thanks Shi Sendo for help with the title. I am currently writing this in tandem with my Naruto fanfiction, Team Seven Reunited, so don't worry if it takes me a while to update. This is my second fanfiction and my first Inuyasha one, so I hope you like it.
Chapter One: Accidental Curse
Everything was quiet in the forest as Sesshomaru and his followers, the demon Jaken and the human girl Rin, traveled along a dirt path. They had been traveling for many days, searching for the evil demon, Naraku. Sesshomaru held a grudge against Naraku, he had once tried to absorb Sesshomaru to make himself stronger. As the three traveled through the forest, Sesshomaru happened to get a scent of something, something that was vile. It was Naraku.
"Found You" Sesshomaru said to himself as he darted away, leaving Rin and Jaken in the dust that he stirred when he ran.
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin yelled after him as she ran.
"Rin, wait! Don't leave me behind, my Lord!" Jaken yelled as he tried to run after the others, but ended up tripping over his staff.
Sesshomaru ran endlessly until he came into a clearing with nothing but trees surrounding them. Sesshomaru looked around, Naraku's scent was everywhere, he couldn't tell where he was. Until he heard a voice.
"So, you finally found me, Lord Sesshomaru" said a dark and vile sounding voice that came from the darkness between the trees.
"Naraku." Sesshomaru said with a slight growl in his voice. He stared dead ahead of him, his eyes searching around him so that he wouldn't get ambushed. Out of nowhere, a spider-like leg came out of the tree's to his right, but Sesshomaru was too quick as he used a energy whip from his fingers to slice it to pieces.
"Kukukuku…I would have guessed you would have been on your guard, but what I have in store for you is something you can easily guard against, kukukukuku" Naraku said as he emerged wearing his baboon cloak.
"What do you mean by that?" Sesshomaru as his hand moved slightly towards his Tokijin.
"Just wait and see" Naraku said, one of his demonic claws digging into the earth, mostly hidden from sight. Sesshomaru noticed that he claw was digging into the earth and jumped an instant before the earth below where he stood erupted in purple gas.
"Miasma…" Sesshomaru said as he covered his face and jumped to the side.
"Kukukukuku! You'd better not breath! This is a new miasma, you wont die, you'll suffer worst then that!" Naraku laughed as more miasma shot from the ground, as if chasing Sesshomaru.
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin and Jaken yelled in unison as they entered the clearing.
"Its Naraku!" Jaken shouted as he wielded his staff, "The Staff of two heads!" He yelled as fire eruped from the mouth of the staff and engulfed Naraku.
"Hahahahaha, You wont get away unscathed, Sesshomaru." Naraku said as he turned into a firey wooden doll. Rin ran over to meet Sesshomaru as he walked toward his companions, but he stopped suddenly as gas erupted from the ground, engulfing Rin as she unknowingly ran into it.
"RIN!" Jaken yelled as he ran towards the gas.
"STOP JAKEN!" Sesshomaru yelled as Jaken was about to run into the gas himself.
"But my lord…Rin…" Jaken said as he looked to Sesshomaru, but Sesshomaru did not reply. No sounds came from the gas, they didn't even know if Rin was there anymore. After several minutes, the gas stopped coming out of the ground, and the air cleared itself. In place of Rin, there was an adult human female that looked exactly like her, except she was unconscious and laying on the ground.
"What the…" Sesshomaru moved forward to examine the woman, she smelled just like Rin, yet Rin was only a child, this woman was a full adult, but she was wearing Rin's clothes, although they were extremely too small and tight now. The woman stirred softly as she began to awaken from unconsciousness.
"Lord…Sesshomaru?" the woman spoke, clasping her own mouth after she heard herself.
"Rin…?" Sesshomaru asked, unsure if it was indeed Rin and not someone else. The woman nodded as she tried to sit up. She looked at herself and gasped as she saw that she was different, and poorly dressed. She screamed in shock of herself, she did not understand at all, not a few minutes earlier she was a small child, and now she was an adult. With all the excitement, Rin passed out again, and Sesshomaru caught her before she fell.
