The Wayward Daughter

A/N: Okay this is a strange story to say the least. I thought it up while board out of my mind on the first day of school. Let it be known I have a fasination with the youkai in the InuYasha world. My character is a Silver Kitsune Youkai. And if any of you reading this happens to be one of my fans for 'To Be One of The Guys' I am really sorry but they deleted the entire story and the chances of me finding all of my chapters intact are not good ones. So I'm sorry for that really I am. Anyway so here's my second attempt at a Predator fic. Hope you enjoy.

Humans were animals and that's all that he knew. There wasn't anything wrong with hunting them. His name is Malakia, and he's a worthy hunter amongst the Predators. His clan was the strongest and most powerful of all the clans. When other clans would see them coming they would bow their heads in respect. Malakia was the brother to the leader of the Predators. His skin tone was a pale cream color with brown spots on his arms. His dread locks held the rings of his clan

and small bones of some of his kills. Moving swiftly down the hall he entered his room, to see the Queen's head on the wall glaring darkly at him. She was his most prized kill. All others paled in comparison to his Queen skull. The other lesser hunters looked up to him for guidance when it came to hunting. There wasn't a Predator on this ship that didn't know who he was and the honor that he carried.

That was until the faithful day he met her.

Four Years Before

He sat perched on a tree watching the humans go about their lives as if nothing was the matter. They didn't even realize the danger that was lurking very near to where they were. If they had been true animals they would have sensed the impending Predator and run. A particular human caught his eyes. From the scent it was a female human. There was something about her, but he couldn't put his finger on it. It felt like a warriors' spirit. Shaking that off he knew humans didn't have that strong of a warriors spirit. He wasn't sure what it was, but he was determined to find out. She walked away from the area and into the darkness of a nearby park. He noticed her looking around as if she was sensing the lurking danger. Curiosity got the best of him as he moved forward to get a better look.

Her look had changed from what he saw. The garb she wore became something else. He couldn't place where the garb belonged, but wherever it was it wasn't amongst these people. The gear looked like she was about to fight with someone. Watching in fascination she allowed someone to approach her. His knowledge of English made it easy to understand what was being said even though their accents were hard to place.

"Come on Kai it's time, I've waited two hundred years for this."

"Did you miss me that much, Alexius?"

"In your dreams Kai and you know it."

The male got into a fighting stance.

"Why do you protect them so much? They're just humans."

"Well those humans as you call them are my friends," she spat out in disgust.

"Not everyone one of them, Alexius."

"Well that isn't my problem but you've come to my town and insisted on killing a human I was a friend to."

"They'll die long before you do so I don't see why you stick around."

"Shut up already and fight me."

The Predator perked up at the word fight. The female got in a crouching position that seemed almost animalistic. Then something changed again. Her hair became a long deep silver color. Her eyes changed into amber and her ears became pointed. The short nails she had before became claws. The last thing to appear was the blue eight point star on her forehead. This confused him like nothing else. He watched as the female although smaller than the male leap forward first and crashed into the big male. They fought and fought and finally without warning the girl drew blood by raking her claws across his arm.

"You're going to pay for that Alexius."

"Why don't you go home Kai, and we'll both be better off that way."

"You drew blood Alexius and therefore you have to pay the same price back two fold."

A soft threatening growl escaped her throat. They circled each other like wolves vying for the last piece of deer. It didn't take long for the lighter weighted warrior to take down the bigger one. Of course the damage was suffered. Blood dripped from her shoulder. Her hand rose up to try and stop the bleeding. The shirt she wore slid down and revealed three blue streaks running around her wrist and down her forearm. She winced and limped away from the body that before Malakai's eyes began to melt until nothing was left but a blood smear. This female intrigued him like nothing else. With ease and grace he followed the wounded human or whatever it was to where it lived. He watched in fascination as the creatures wounds healed before his eyes. Shock registered on his face as he watched. That decided him right then and there that he had to examine her under the guidance of his people to see how long a creature that can heal in record time would fare as a hunter. Moving forward into the house once the creature, Alexius was asleep he moved over to her room. Looking around with his heat sensors on he made sure nothing was out of the ordinary. What he missed was the glittering amber eyes that watched him from the shadows. Malakai stopped hearing a growl that was so dark that he had to decipher if it was friend or foe. The latter was a better thought. Turning around he was slammed into the wall by the female he sought. Her eyes glittered maliciously.

"Get out," she growled. "What ever you are get out of this house now!"

Raising his hand he brought it crashing down in hopes of knocking her out but no such luck. She caught that wrist and began to squeeze. He could hear the groaning of the metal around his wrist. Malakai had to admit she was a strong one, and strong warriors were welcomed in the clan, or at least he hoped so. Using his weight he managed to move her and slam her into the wall nearest them.

"Come on lets fight little girl."

"For your information I'm over three hundred years old, and I am not little."

The Predator seeing and opening attacked and managed to hit a pressure point sending the girl into unconsciousness. Inwardly he smirked at his accomplishments. She had spirit and it made him wonder how she would fare.
