The Mutt.
Chapter 1
The ocean waters swayed near the Eastern village of Edo. Kneeling on the sandy surface along the sea were a Miko mother and her daughter. Both were dressed wonderfully for they were indeed a great pair of beauties alike. The mother wore a silken long sleeved blue kimono with pink and purple butterflies dancing on it. These colors mached her eyes for the mother's miko powers were so great that they disruppted her birth, giving her one pink pupil with blue lining around it and the other with purple and blue lining. The young girl, five years of age, sat combing her mother long, smooth, raven hair in a jet black colored kimono with golden leaves running along the hems and collar and on her , ran upwards, green stalks of bamboo with small panda bears grasping them. But as she allowed her fingers to handle her mother's raven hair a thought came upon her.
"Mother, may i see it again?" she asked soflty.
Her mother smiled at the young one and gently pull down just enough fabric to show her daughter her back but cover her chest from the nightly public. The child stared at the scar the dreaed demon carved on her mother-in the shape of a T. It was difficult for a child so young to know that on day that fate will also befall her. Her mother, she supposed being so strong, defeated the curse that their family enemy, Chintado,put upon her. Now the curse is past on to her, and she knew it.
"Do not ponder on it my dear. The time will come when you will know how to defat the curse"her mother stated to calm her child down.
" I am not worried oka-san, just upset."As she slipped back on her kimono the mother heard a question she knew was going to come one day, but not so soon.
"What am I?"
She did not panic, just thought deeply how it answer her curious daughter.
"You are ...,well, an inu, honey."
"I knew that, I mean, where doI fit in?" she said with a hint of sadness because she knew that hermother probablly didnt know herself-though she also knew that her mother would never lie to her, especially about this subject.
"I no not of your role dear."She knew it
." But i do know that you are a beautiful, young, and spirited, powerful, inu girl who can change the world if wanted to."
This made her fell a little better. She gave a small flicker of the mouth upwards, for she does not smile. Not even for her mother. She , even in that age, is a cold heartless girl.She wasn't empty though-she had her mother. Her Father had died 30 years after her Birth. She barely knew him. All she knew was that he was a hanyou whose life was taken by Chintado for refusal ofher marrige to him(and something else i cant tell you about in this chapter).
Her mother turned around to let pink and purple meet brown. "Listen to me honey" she bagan grasping her daughter's hands in hers."Remember always that no matter what takes place, you will never forget that you are my, daughter, my Kagome."
