"Ok, so, as far back as I can remember, is when I just turned four. I was playing with Koga. We were running around, and climbing trees. Then I heard something in the bushes. I looked over from my perch on the branch and saw a boy with silver hair and dog ears. "Hey Koga. Do you see him over there?" I asked Koga. I also pointed in that direction. The boy then ducked into the bushes. I jumped off of my branch and went over to him. "Halyn, what are you doing?" Koga asked from his branch in the tree. "I'm going to see the boy" I said. Then I kept walking. The boy then stood up from the bush. "Who are you?" I asked him. "I'm InuYasha" he said. "That's a nice name. I'm Halyn. Wanna be friends?" I said. "Are you sure you want to be friends with me?" he asked. I gave him a wierd look. "Why wouldn't I want to?" I asked him. "Because, I'm not a full demon like you and him" he said pointing to Koga and me. Then Koga came up behind me. "Hey! Your a half demon aren't you? Your a hanyou! Haha!" Koga teased InuYasha. I was a softy then but I also stood up for people too. "Koga! You can't call him that, even though it's true. It's really mean!" I shouted at him. Koga just turned away, crossed his arms and ran to the tree again. "Don't mind him. He's got a big head sometimes. So, who are your parents?" I asked him. "My parent's are Izayoi and InuTaisho, the great dog demon" he relpied to me. "Wow! You got a powerful daddy!" I said very amused. I was about to ask him about his father when he interupted me. "I never knew him though. He died protecting me and my mom" InuYasha said, letting his dog ears droop. I tried to change the subject. "Do you have any brothers or sisters?" I asked him. "I have a half brother named Sesshomaru. But he's mean to me because he's a full demon like you and Koga. We have the same dad, but he still hates me just because I'm a half breed" he said. "I hate it when people talk about themselves very badly. Think good. Not bad. So what if your not a full demon. It doesn't matter. You're nice" I said, trying to comfert (sp?) him. Then I convinced him to play with me and Koga. And I told Koga not to be mean to him. My parents watched us while taking care of the new born Shippo. I always loved to just play with his tail as he did mine. But a few months later while I was playing with Koga, InuYasha, and Koga's new friend Ayame, we all heard screaming. Then I recognized the screaming. It was my mom and dad. I screamed for them and ran. Ayame, InuYasha, and Koga followed. When I got there, I saw my parent's lying on the ground, not moving. Then I saw my mom move a bit, but my dad didn't. I ran to her. "Mommy! What happened? Where is Shippo? Why are you hurt?" I cried. Tears were streaming down my face. My mom told me that she was with one of her friends in the village and left Shippo there for her to babysit. But this time, she wasn't going to go get him. She told me that I was a big girl and had to live with Koga's pack until I got older. Then" Halyn stopped talking and felt ters whelling up in her eye ducts. She blinked them back. Randilyn got out of the tub, seeing it was morning, got a towel, dried off her tail, then trasnformed her tail into legs. Then she put on a bath robe and hugged Halyn. Halyn hugged back. Then she continued.

"Then she died, right infront of me and my friends. When Koga heard my mom tell me that I had to live with his pack, he didn't think they would agree. I understood. Then we all heard a rustle in the forest. InuYasha got up and ran towards it. Then he brought out a woman with long, long straight black hair, and a colorful Kimono dress with small flowers designed on it. She the scene infront of her and figured out that the fox demons were my parent's. InuYasha introduced her to us, saying that she was his mom. She clarified it and offered me to stay with InuYasha and her. I didn't hesitate to accept the offer. I would still see Koga and Ayame, but I would be going against what my mom wanted me to do. But I went with them. I wanted to stop by the village where my mom's friend was and say goodbye to Shippo. I knew if I saw him more and more, then I would remember my parents and my mom dying infront of me. I found my mom's friend and told her that she and my father died. She understood that my mom wanted her to take care of Shippo. I said goodbye to Shippo. But before I left, I heard him say my name. Well, not my real name. He said, Hay Hay. I thought it was really cute. Those were the first word I ever heard him say.

10 years later, I was still friends with Koga and Ayame. I was still living with InuYasha, but Izayoi died so InuYasha was really sour. We were both 14 now. That was when things changed my life. That day, me and InuYasha were walking in the forest when I heard a voice in my head. I tried to block it out and walk on. But then it grew louder, and louder, and louder. Then it got so loud, I had to cover my ears. I knelt in pain. "Halyn! What the hells wrong with you? Whoah!" InuYasha asked me then he backed away when blue fire engulfed me. It didn't hurt though. It felt normal, like I felt it everyday. Then I heard my father's voice in my head. He said, "Halyn, I left you my sword. The sword of time. It can take you across different times and dimensions. You will need it some day. You will also not find it until you hear my voice again. You will find your brother first. Then you will find your friends. Then, I will speak to you again and I will lead you to the sword of time." Then I opened my eyes and saw that the fire was gone and so was the pain. InuYasha knelt beside me. "What the hell was that all about Hay?" InuYasha asked. I looked at him. "What is up with the mouth Inu? Can you go one day without saying things like that?" I asked him playfully. He just got up and started to walk again. I got up too and followed. We were acting like brother and sister, getting on each other's nerves. It was fun though. Later that day, while I was in a spring taking a bath, I heard something in the trees. I got out, shook the water off of me and put my clothes back on. I walked around but saw nothing. Then I saw the blue fire again appear all around me again. But this time it was bigger and it scared me. I screamed. InuYasha heard me scream and came running to me. But before he could even touch me, my whole world disappeared, him included. Then I saw the flames die and saw trees around me again. "InuYasha?" I cried out his name, hopping he would answer, but none came. I got off the ground and started to walk. Then I came to the egde of the forest, hopping to see a village, an open plain, or a lake. But what I saw was buildings and cars and signs and lights. It was all wierd to me. I wasn't from this time nor dimension. Then I wished everyday to hear my father's voice again in my head. But, 6 years later, I still haven't heard it" Halyn concluded her story. Randilyn was just starring at Halyn. "You have been through alot. More then me or Candace or Orenda combined" Randilyn said.
