Kiyoraka's Past Revealed
I don't own Inuyasha.
XOXOXO
Four Days Later…
"Hey Sango wait up!" Inuyasha yelled trying to catch her attention which he did.
"Hey Inuyasha what is it that you want!" Sango greeted him as she slowed her pace so Inuyasha could catch up.
"I was wondering if we could you know…" Inuyasha looked down blushing as he rubbed his arm.
"No, Inuyasha I don't know." Sango said as she giggled at him.
"I was wondering if we could you know spend the day together so I could ask you some questions and stuff." Inuyasha said nervously.
"You mean like a date?" Sango asked blushing.
"NO! I mean unless you want it to be a date." Inuyasha said blushing.
"OH NO! It's just two really good friends spending the day together that is all it is to it." Sango said avoiding eye contact.
"Yeah." Inuyasha said also avoiding eye contact.
Awkward silence.
"Yeah well I'll go with you but right now I didn't eat dinner last night and I haven't had breakfast so I'm going to the dining hall to get some food before the others eat it all." Sango said as she made a right turn, kept straight, and made a left turn until she got to the door that said 'DINING HALL' and she went in Inuyasha following her.
Dining Hall…
"Hey people how's it going!" Inuyasha asked as he came into the dining hall got a plate and piled it up with breakfast foods of all kinds before sitting down and began to gobble it up.
"Inuyasha don't eat like that its bad manners." Sango said as she got her pancakes, bacon, and eggs with orange juice and began to eat.
Inuyasha looked at her plate and asked. "That's all you're going to eat! I thought you were hungry."
"This will fill me up unlike you I don't have to eat a wagon load of food to fill myself up." Sango said as she gave him a slight glare.
"Well sorry Sango but princy isn't a demon and look at all the food he's got on his plate." Inuyasha pointed out to prove his point and to also to annoy him.
"Hey vermin don't dare speak of me out of your mouth I'm far too great to be mentioned by the likes of you, and I don't eat too much I'm just so tall that I have to eat more than you because I have a high metabolism." Kiyoraka pointed out as he glared at Inuyasha; then he smirked and said. "Besides you're just angry because Sango said my gift was better than yours anyway."
"Excuse me you must have been mistaken; because the way I heard it Sango said my gift was the best!" Inuyasha said with a smirk.
"Oh please she just said that so she wouldn't hurt your feelings, but I know my gift was the best and you know it to vermin so just face facts okay." Kiyoraka said with a cocky smirk.
"Oh come on a fancy kimono that you had a poor girl make, and Sango can't even wear it until the day of this ceremony you're supposed to have and Sango isn't into that fancy stuff." Inuyasha replied angrily.
"Oh and a sword is way better than a kimono." Kiyoraka said sarcastically as he rolled his eyes.
"Yeah it is better because Sango can actually use this on a daily bases, and she said that my gift came from the heart so there." Inuyasha said the last part being said childishly.
"Oh no gentleman I think you're both wrong. My gift was the best of them all I mean it captured both sides of her personality." Miroku said as he moved over to the uncomfortable Sango pointing to her neck. "She's got it on right now anyway."
"That doesn't mean anything." Kiyoraka defended.
"Yeah it's just that yours is more convenient to wear than our gifts." Inuyasha said with a nod proud of the answer he had given.
"I have an easy way to solve this." Miroku said calmly standing up.
"What is it?" both Inuyasha and Kiyoraka asked in perfect unison.
"We'll let Sango say whose gift is best once and for all. Whatever she says this time goes no more second chances this time." Miroku said.
"Sango" they all said in unison awaiting her answer.
Sango who had been trying to sneak out of the room since the very beginning of the argument/conversation was stopped dead in her tracks by that question. She looked around nervously and when she thought of a way out of this mess she had gotten herself into.
"I think it's time for Kirara's breakfast I got to feed her bye!" Sango said quickly as she ran down the hall out of sight.
"But Kirara's right here!" Shippo called out after her but she was too far away to hear him.
The boys snapped out of their stupors and Miroku said in a sadden tone. "I guess we'll never know whose gift was best."
"Yeah." Kiyoraka and Inuyasha said with a sigh.
Then Inuyasha perked up and said. "Well I'm going to go spend the whole day with Sango don't expect me back until nightfall we're not leaving the kingdom for any reason. So if you need us send someone." Inuyasha said which surprised everyone.
"You're going on a date with Sango!" Miroku yelled outraged and jealous and you couldn't miss it, but if you're Inuyasha you can miss it.
"No, it is not a date I just have to ask Sango about some things that only she can answer." Inuyasha said as he smirked at the other two guys. "Well I got to go see you later much later."
With Sango…
"I'm glad to be out of that situation." Sango said as she walked down some random hall when she ran into Kagome but she wasn't alone Saseko was with her much to Sango's dismay.
"Hey, Sango where have you been!" Kagome asked yawning since it was practically eight in the morning let's just say Sango and the guys are early risers.
"Yeah and it's so early in the morning." Saseko added just to put her two cents in.
"Oh I was with the guys eating breakfast. They had their usual argument and put me in the middle of it about whose present I thought was best which is stupid question because I think they all were good presents maybe I shouldn't have said that to Inuyasha in front of the guys anyway. Look at me guys I'm rambling anyway as I was saying so to get out of it I lied and said I had to feed Kirara who has eaten already and besides she's in the dining hall with the guys anyway, and now I feel terrible for lying." Sango said all this in one breath as Saseko and Kagome stared at her with wide eyes.
"Hey Sango don't forget you said we could spend the day together!" Inuyasha called out running down the hall.
"Oh and I made plans to spend the day with Inuyasha." Sango added as Inuyasha stopped beside her.
"YOU'RE GOING OUT WITH EACH OTHER!" Kagome asked jealous.
"No I am not going out with him/her!" Sango and Inuyasha answered at the same time.
"Then why are you two going to spend the day together?" Kagome asked still quite pissed.
Sango couldn't answer because she had no idea what Inuyasha wanted to ask her.
"I have some things I want to ask Sango in private and one of these question is going to take awhile to answer that's why Kagome!" Inuyasha answered annoyed with Kagome's question.
"Well you two have fun on your little date." Saseko said with a smile happy that Sango would be gone so that all of Kiyoraka's attention will be focused on her.
"Will do see you later guys." Inuyasha said dragging Sango down the hall.
Saseko then turned to the seething Kagome and smirked.
It seems that Kagome likes Inuyasha more than just a friend and it seems he likes Sango, but I'm not so sure about that. Oh well I can still get more information on Kagome's feelings for Inuyasha while the two of them are gone.
"Hey Kagome what do you say we have a girls day out and we can even bring that Sukida girl with us as well you know just to talk about girl things and stuff." Saseko suggested as she smiled at Kagome.
Kagome putting Sango and Inuyasha in the back of her mind smiled at Saseko and said. "I would love to have one of those days I used to have those with my girlfriends back in my time but I'm never in the future so we never have them anymore, and Sango just isn't into those types of things although we did have our talks every once in awhile."
"Then it's settled we'll get Sukida who should be in her room which is beside Enjeru's room and then we'll tell the guys. Then our first thing to do will be to tour the town." Saseko said as they headed toward Sukida's room.
Great Hall…
This hall also consisted of Sukida's room, Enjeru's room, Kiyoraka's room, and Saseko's room. These rooms were themed in designs. Sukida's was hearts, Kiyoraka's was blue stars, Enjeru's is bunnies, and Saseko's is purple rainbows and unicorns. When Saseko and Kagome made it to this hall they went strait to Sukida's room and knocked she answered instantly with a bright smile on her face. "Good morning girls what brings you to my room this early in the morning!"
"I was wondering if you would like to accompany me and Kagome on a girl's day." Saseko asked hoping she would say yes.
"Sure I would love to go with you guys just let me put this outfit up I'm making for Sir-Prince-King-Kiyoraka." Sukida said as she struggled to call Kiyoraka by his first name instead of a royal title as she put the outfit in her closet. She then walked out into the hall where the two girls were standing as they started to leave but not before Enjeru came out of her room.
"Did I hear right or did I just hear that you girls are going on a girls day out and I'm not invited." Enjeru said as she tapped her foot impatiently.
The girls looked at each other and shrugged and said in unison. "You can come too."
"Yay!" said Enjeru as she slammed the door and headed to the dining hall where they figured the guys were.
Dining Hall…
When the girls arrived at the entrance of the dining hall they were greeted by Shippo and Kirara who were walking out of the door shaking their heads sadly. Shippo then turned around and when he saw the girls he said. "If you're going in there be warned they are fighting well it's more like arguing again."
"What are they arguing about this time?" Saseko asked.
"It's more like a who and who else do they argue over all the time well Sango duh!" Shippo said with a shake of his head. "Well anyway me and Kirara are going to the garden see ya later."
"Let's not go in just yet let's just hear what they're saying." Kagome said as she put her ear on the door to listen the others following her example as they began to listen.
With the guys…
"Monk I'm telling you my gift was the best?" Kiyoraka said as he turned to Miroku and smirked.
"Oh please my necklace was simple yet beautiful just like the woman I gave it to." Miroku said with a smirk of his own.
"Please my Kimono gift was the best so far and she will look beautiful in it come this Saturday." Kiyoraka said in that royal voice he used when he needed to.
"Oh come on if Sango would've stayed in here longer she would have said my gift was the best and you know it; it's just that my woman is so kind that she didn't want to say which gift she thought was best once and for all." Miroku said as he turned to glare at spoiled prince who was beginning to anger the monk.
"What? Since when is Sango your woman; because you are clearly mistaken since she is obviously mine." Kiyoraka said as he glared at Miroku.
"Well she does get jealous when I ask other women to bare my child and jealousy is a sure fire sign that she loves me." Miroku said with a smirk on his face thinking he had won the fight.
"Humph I've known her longer and she did tell me that she thought I was handsome." Kiyoraka said as he smirked then he said. "She will be my woman."
"We'll see prince, we'll see." Miroku said as he glared at the prince.
"Well I guess we will then." Kiyoraka said as he smirked at Miroku.
Their conversation ended there as they stood up abruptly and headed for the door.
With the girls…
"Oh no here they come girls let's act like we were just coming down the hall." Kagome said as the girls ran down to where they had entered the hall and walked down the hall toward the dining hall entrance/exit just as the guys walked out the door.
"Well good morning girls." Kiyoraka greeted being the first to see them.
"Hey Kiyoraka, good morning Miroku." The girls greeted the guys as well.
"Morning ladies." Miroku said giving them his trademark flirtatious smile.
"What were you guys doing in there?" Saseko asked just to see what they were going to say.
"Oh you know chatting about guys stuff." they said which technically wasn't a complete lie.
"Yeah, why do you girls need us or something?" Kiyoraka asked them.
"No, we are just going to have breakfast and to tell you that we will be gone the whole day. We're having a girl's day and we're going into town I'm tired of being in this stuffy old castle anyway." Saseko said.
"Alright well see you girls tonight I guess." Miroku said as he went to his room.
"Have fun and don't let Enjeru get in too much trouble she seems to be in trouble a lot lately for some reason." Kiyoraka said as he went to his room as well.
"Well girls let's eat and then we're going into town." Kagome said as they went into the dining hall.
With Sango and Inuyasha…
Sango and Inuyasha are sitting on a bench that is in the middle of the town. This bench is by a beautiful golden fountain that is flowing with water. They are sitting in silence that is until Inuyasha broke it.
"I bet you're wondering why I asked you out here right?" Inuyasha asked Sango turning to look at her.
"Yeah I guess I am." Sango answered sarcastically.
"I want to ask you two questions and the first one is. What is your sword's history with your family; because when I went to ask Totosai to fix it he said that your sword is made out of the same material as tetsaiga, but it is thousands of years older than the Tetsaiga itself?" Inuyasha said awaiting Sango's answer.
"Well my mama told me that the sword is passed down from generation to generation to every female born into my family. The sword came from a dog demon's fang and it was given to one of my ancestors as a gift from him. Only females from my family can use it, and when and if I have a daughter I'll pass this sword down to her." Sango answered as she looked at him waiting for a response.
"You think this dog demon was my grandfather?" Inuyasha asked curious.
"Yeah I believe he is your grandfather because only some one from your family can make a sword like this, and I know that my ancestor and your grandfather were good friends to have him give her a sword of this magnitude and strength." Sango said as she looked at Inuyasha giving him a smile that would have made him fall to his knees if he hadn't been sitting down.
"Seems we were friends all those many millennia ago." Inuyasha said with a smile.
"Yeah I guess we were." Sango said in a dazed voice as she smiled. Then she thought about the other question Inuyasha wanted to ask her. "What is your other question Inuyasha?"
"Well I know I asked you this before, but I wasn't serious about it at the time but now I am. What is it about me that makes Kiyoraka hate me?" Inuyasha asked Sango deadly serious. He had to know at least why the guy didn't like him.
"I…" Sango started to say but she stopped when she saw that Inuyasha really wanted to know. "Alright fine if you really must know then listen and listen good and no one but you and I will hear this conversation okay."
"Alright I gotcha Sango now tell me about princy." Inuyasha said as he gave his complete attention to Sango.
"Alright well it happened six years ago…
Flashback
Sango and her father were practicing their demon slaying skills. Well it's more like Sango was practicing her skills and her father was observing a proud look on his face as he watched his daughter throw her Hiraikotsu and cut all of the logs in half as the weapon came back to her and she caught it with ease.
"Very good Sango you remind me so much of your mother when she was you're age. You'll make a fine demon slayer and you will soon go on your first mission." Her father said as he went to gather up the logs. "You chopped a weeks worth of firewood in one swing."
"Thank you father for your appraisal, but now I must go and…" Sango was silenced by a scream for help.
Sango and her father ran to the village gates where a man that was bleeding and barely alive stopped at Sango's fathers feet and said. "Need…help…Tsuyoi Kingdom." He died right there on the spot.
Sango's father looked at this man then said. "Bury this man and give him a hero's burial for being strong enough to come to us for help in the state he was in. Men we have to leave now if we are to get to Tsuyoi in time it takes couple of hours to get there so it shouldn't take us long to arrive." Sango's father said as he counted his men. "We're one short where's Koji?"
"He's still recuperating from the last fight we were in." said one of the many men in the army.
"We'll be one man short but it'll have to do for…" Sango's father was silenced by his daughter.
"I want to go father." Sango said to her father.
"I don't think you're ready for this type of mission Sango." Sango's father said but he was silenced by his daughter.
"I've been training for three years father and you yourself said that I am ready for my first mission. You once told me that a warrior learns from experiences in battle not from the stories of man. I am ready father I know I am." Sango said with a determined frown on her face.
"Let her go Toushou she's just like Repuu when it comes to wanting to fight she want give up until she gets to go into battle." said the man from before.
"Alright you can go Sango but only because Uncle Tetsujin gave me some good reasons for to let you go." Toushou said in a tired voice. Then his voice returned to its commanding voice and he said. "Alright men (he looked at a frowning Sango) and woman we have to leave now to save this village from the demons that are plaguing it. Some of you may not comeback alive, some of you may be injured, some of you may be paralyzed and never be able to move again a day in your life, and some of you will come back alive and unharmed, but tired from the battle, but remember fight to the finish until all the despicable creatures are gone!"
There were many cheers as the men marched out the village toward Tsuyoi Kingdom; Sango lagging behind with her boomerang over her shoulder marching behind the men. Toushou and Tetsujin stayed behind and watched their daughter/niece march behind the men proudly.
"Why did I have two kids, and one of them being a headstrong little girl who wants to fight? Why couldn't she be like normal little girls and like to cook and do other girly things, and if she wanted to fight she could become a priestesses. Why do I feel like I'm making a mistake by sending my little girl out to battle?" Toushou questioned his brother-in-law.
"It's because Sango is like her mother she wants to fight for justice and to help fight against the evil demons that kill humans for their own sick amusement. In a way it's good she's not like other girls because the world needs more strong females to defend the people they love when the men are gone." Tetsujin said proud of his little niece. He then grinned and said. "You know the reason why you had two kids it's because of how you made them."
"Too true Tetsujin." said Toushou said with a grin.
They both laughed at the joke.
"Oh man we forgot about the mission and they're probably long gone by now. Let's go so we can catch up to them." Toushou said in a panic.
Both men took off a trail of dust behind them.
Few hours later…
Gasp could be heard all around at the sight they saw before them. Demons of all kinds ranging from low rank to high rank were milling about the terrified people. The smell and sight of blood made the men queasy. Fires were ablaze all around the kingdom. A demon was about to kill a human girl when a boomerang came hurling toward the demon cutting him in half. The men all turned to look at Sango like she had grown another head.
"What are you staring at! We have to save these people now!" Sango said angrily as she glared at them. The guys still stared at her like she had grown another head. "WOULD YOU GO ALREADY!"
The guys snapped out of it and ran into the battle weapons ready to slice some demons in half.
"Men are idiots." Sango murmured as she followed them as well.
"Don't you just love that kid!" Tetsujin asked Toushou as he smirked at the way his niece had just ordered a whole army of men and she killed a demon. "And you said she wasn't ready for this."
"Well I was wrong this time, but only this time." Toushou said as he and Tetsujin went to join the men and Sango in battle.
Later…
"Now you demon be gone!" Yelled Tetsujin as he threw his sickle-like weapon at the demons throat killing it instantly, but he didn't see the demon behind himself.
"Look out Tetsujin behind you!" Toushou yelled running toward him.
Hearing the warning from Toushou he turned around, but it was too late to defend himself because he was slashed in the stomach. The blood came oozing from his wound and he fell to the ground face first applying more pressure and pain to his stomach.
"Oh no Tetsujin are you alright!" Toushou asked frantically turning him over gently so that he could look at him.
"I'm not going to make it Toushou, but I want you to know that you're the best brother-in-law a guy could ask for and I'm going miss you. Tell Sango and Kohaku that I love them so much, and to stay strong for me." Tetsujin reached over to his side to pick up his weapon. "Give this to Kohaku I want you to promise me you will."
"I promise I will Tetsujin, but you aren't going to die you just can't." Toushou said taking the weapon from him.
"Goodbye my friend." Tetsujin said as his eyes closed and his head rolled over to the side hitting the ground with a soft thud. He was no longer apart of this world.
"Goodbye my friend I'll see you again in time." Toushou said as a lone tear slid down his cheek and dissolving into the ground below. "I will avenge you."
He then spotted the demon that did this and with one swing of his sword he was gone. He looked around the battlefield and saw that the men that were with him had finished this side of the village. "Men we are done here let us go near the castle to assist the other soldiers where I suspect the demons are more active protecting their boss who should be in the castle, with I'm afraid the royal family."
"What happened to Tetsujin!" one of the soldiers who was really good friends with Tetsujin asked.
"He's gone now I'm afraid, but his death will not be in vain." Toushou said pure hatred and loathing in his voice. "We will kill every demon in this place and anyone that stands in our way."
"You need to relax Toushou think of your children think of Tetsujin. He wouldn't want you to act like this over his death." the soldier from earlier said as he placed a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"You're right I need to think of my children. Alright men head out toward the castle where my daughter should be with the other half of my soldiers." Toushou ordered as he and his men headed out toward the castle.
With Sango…
"Well men that's it that's all the demons." Sango said as she put her Hiraikotsu on her back; weary from her first battle.
"I'm afraid little girl that my brother is in his castle along with his family and the head demon. They are being held captive." Kachiki (Kiyoraka's uncle the one I mentioned in chapter 6) said in a very stuck up manner observing her and then he added in a superior tone. "Though I'm not so sure what a little erchant like you can do to save them?"
"Leave her alone honey she's just a little girl a freakish tomboy girl but a girl none the less." Saseko said as she let out a bone-chilling evil laugh and smirked at Sango her husband joining her.
Poor little Sango looked like she was about to cry but she held it in and stayed strong she looked at the two evil people that seemed to be royalty (how they escaped the castle is beyond me!) and smirked. "I'll show you what I am capable of you evil old woman and man!" She then ran inside the castle gates and into the endless flames that seemed to be taunting her with its dance.
"You heartless bastards talking to a child like that how dare you!" yelled a middle aged woman as she glared at the heartless couple.
"How dare you talk to us like that do you who know we are; we are royalty and you should show us respect? Let the little whelp die she deserves it for being a misfit. She also called my wife old and she is not old she is quite young." Kachiki said with a frown as he glared at the woman.
"That's a reason to let the poor child die you are despicable and for you to be in charge of our kingdom I don't think so. I'm going to go help that poor child it is you who should be consumed in flames both of you!" those were the woman's final words as she ran into the fiery abyss after Sango.
"Fine you can both die then you old hag!" Kachiki yelled as he yelled after the woman.
"Hey you have you seen a little girl around here with a boomerang on her back?" Toushou asked Kachiki as he and his men stopped in front of Kachiki and Saseko.
"Oh she went into the castle to save the royal family and to kill the ringleader of this attack." Saseko answered as if it was no big deal.
"Oh no my little girl is in that death trap." Toushou said as he was about to run in but he was stopped by a hand on his shoulder he looked at the hand on his shoulder and looked up at the person that dared to stop him from saving his daughter.
"You shouldn't go in there you will die if you do and a handsome man such as yourself shouldn't die at least by the means of flame." Saseko said in a flirtatious voice.
"She's right you need to stay out here if she's as good a demon exterminator as she says she is then she can make it out of this alive." Kachiki said although he really wished she wouldn't. "You couldn't go in their anyway the fire has spread blocked the exit.
There's no way she and that old woman can get through this alive!
Kachiki and Saseko both shared a victorious smirk both thinking the same thing.
A few hours later; With Sango…
"Man this place is being burned to the ground and if I don't hurry I'll burn right along with it along with the royal family and I'll never see papa, Kohaku, or Uncle Tetsujin again." Sango thought with worry in her voice.
Relax Sango old girl you can do this, you can do this!
A burning log fell from the ceiling almost hitting Sango.
I can't do this!
Sango finally reached throne room (she was unaware of what it was) and to her surprise it wasn't on fire, so wanting to escape the blaze she went in.
Throne room…
Sango looked around and saw that the room was dim and the only light available was candlelight.
This place is creepy!
"Dear child you must leave before it is too late!" said a voice it was powerful yet gentle.
Sango looked around until she found three people tied up a man, woman, and boy. The boy was unconscious but the man and woman were awake. In the corner she also noticed a wooden cradle with a baby in it or so she assumed.
"Dear child did you not hear me you must escape before it's too late!" the woman said she was very beautiful her red hair was down and it flowed down to the floor, and her eyes were a beautiful shade of green. She had on a beautiful black and gold kimono on with a golden sash tied around her waist to hold it up. She also had a golden tiara on her head.
"Yes young one leave at once. The man said in a commanding and intimidating voice although you could tell he was worried. He was a very strong man because he had muscles bulging from his arms. His face was hardened and he had a wise look in his black eyes. His hair was black and it was tied in a braid as well, and he had on a violet and gold kimono on. He had a golden crown on his head.
Oh my they must be the king, queen, and prince, and that little baby must be theirs.
"Too late what are you doing in here little girl don't you know it's dangerous you could be killed." said a huge bear demon although it was obvious he was not the boss because he was muscle, and bosses never fight.
Sango gulped when she looked at the huge bear demon towering over her with a smirk on his face. "I came to…to rescue the…the royal family."
"Aww did you really and I suppose you thought this was a piece of cake. Sorry sweety but you have to do better than that." the bear demon said with a smirk as he patted her head.
"Well at least me daddy and the other demon exterminators are out there killing your men as we speak!" Sango yelled angrily as she gave him the best glare she could which wasn't very intimidating at her age.
"I like you kid you got spunk what's your name I at least got to know that before I destroy you." the bear demon said as he smirked.
"My name is Sango and you will not destroy me." Sango said a confident look on her face.
"We'll see about that you…" the bear demon was cut off by their boss.
"Wait a minute did you say your name was Sango?" the boss asked from shadows.
"What's it to you?" Sango asked as she looked where she heard his voice coming.
"You'll see!" the boss said and you could tell he was smirking by the way he had said that. "Don't kill her or the boy, but you can kill the others. They are of no use to me."
"Will do boss! I'm going to enjoy this." the bear demon said as he looked to see who his first victim would be. "I guess I'll kill this baby first it's defenseless anyway."
"No, please don't kill our little girl!" the queen yelled as she freed herself from the ropes and she and her husband ran over in front of the crib to protect their little girl.
"I guess you two want to die first huh so be it." the bear demon said with a smirk. Then he frowned and said. "Then die!"
"Mama, papa no don't go!" the boy yelled as he ran across the long room toward his parents and sister.
While he was running to save his parents Sango had launched her boomerang toward the bear demon. The bear demon saw the boomerang and using his impressive strength he knocked the boomerang back with ease. Then he returned to the business at hand.
"Don't you dare hurt my mama and papa or I'll…I'll" the boy stuttered with nervousness.
"Or you'll what tattle on me! HAHAHA!" the bear demon laughed evilly at him.
"Get out of the way son you have to live for the kingdom to flourish." the king and his father said.
"Remember son we love you very much. Take your sister and get out of here now!" his mother said as she and his father were killed before the child's very eyes.
"NO! MAMA PAPA!" the boy cried as he fell to his knees and cried.
Sango who was horrified at the sight snapped out of it when she saw that the bear demon was going to kill the little girl. She couldn't get there in time, and if she threw the hiraikotsu he would simply knock it back. It looks like Sango wouldn't have to, because; the bear demon was killed by some sort of invisible stuff to the neck, and he fell limp to the ground dead.
"He deserved to die trying to kill a defenseless child and a baby no less." the boss said from the darkness he cloaked himself in. He turned to Sango and said. "I want you to leave girl and take the boy and the baby with you."
"Right, but why are you letting me, the boy, and the girl over." Sango asked suspiciously.
"Like I said I have my reasons. Now I hate to repeat myself but leave now!" the boss said loosing his temper.
"Alright I'm going jeeze Mr. grumpy." Sango said as she ran over and got the little girl out of the crib she had a lot of experience with babies since she practically took care of her brother when he was this size. She then walked over to the boy who was in a daze and said. "Hey come on we have to go now." It was no use though the boy had gone into shock.
"Oh for the love a…" the boss said as he came out of the darkness picked and up the boy. He then moved over with very swift movement and picked Sango who was still holding the child up, and they left out the thrown room and into the fiery abyss.
Entrance hall…
"Hey why are you helping us I was always told that demons hate humans, and would kill a human if they saw one." Sango said as she looked up to get a glimpse of the demon but the smoke was too thick to see through.
"I'll need you and the other two when the time comes that's all you need to know." the demon said calmly as he moved into the courtyard.
"There you are my child and the prince and princess as well." the woman that went to save them said as she was trapped because the fire had blocked the exit and she could not escape the blaze. She then noticed the demon and said and glared. "Let those children go this instant you beast!"
"This is the thanks I get for saving people. I know I'll never do this again." the demon said as he gently sat the children down. "I'll let you go you and the woman." He then made the fire turn blue.
"How'd you do that!" Sango asked amazed.
"My secret now go." the demon said as he flew away.
"Oh dear are you alright!" the woman asked frantically.
"I'm fine but thanks for asking." Sango said as she gave a tired smile to the woman.
"I can take the baby if you want." the woman offered.
"Here you can take her, and maybe you can snap that boy out of his shock." Sango said as she handed her the baby.
"My prince, are you alright?" the woman asked gently.
"How many times have I told you to call me by my name Komori." the boy said as he began to slowly snap out of his shocked state.
"My apologies my pri-Kiyoraka but where are your parents?" Komori asked already dreading the answer.
"They didn't make it Komori they're dead." Kiyoraka said quietly. "Come on we can talk about this later right now we need to get out of here."
"How do we know the demon wasn't lying?" Sango asked suspiciously.
"There's only one way to find out." Komori said as she and the children ran through the fire.
Outside…
Komori and the kids burst out of the flame and was met by silence and shocked stared from the villagers and soldiers.
"Uhm…we won." Sango said sheepishly.
There were cheers of victory then from both the soldiers and villagers.
End Flashback
"Wow so because a demon killed his parents and because I have demon blood in me he hates me too." Inuyasha said as he stared at Sango.
"Yep that's right." Sango said as she looked at him. "I used to feel the same way too about demons and half-demons that is until I met you, Shippo, Ayame, and Koga and all of the other good demons we met on our travels."
"Hey I'm evil too." Inuyasha protested as he glared at Sango.
"No, Inuyasha you're more of a grumpy, rude, and ill-mannered half-demon but you're not evil." Sango said with a grin as Inuyasha glared at her.
"Keh anyway did you get a good look at this demon?" Inuyasha asked curiously.
"No, the smoke was too thick for me to get a good look at any of him." Sango answered.
"Damn! Well we better get going Sango it's getting dark we'll talk about this tomorrow okay!" Inuyasha said as he stood up Sango following his lead as they headed toward the castle.
Guest Hall…
"Well goodnight Sango I'll see you tomorrow and we can finish our talk okay." Inuyasha said.
"Sure see you tomorrow Inuyasha and I had fun." Sango said with a yawn as she closed the door to her room.
"So did I Sango." Inuyasha said as he walked to his room and he was about to open the door to his room when he felt this cold chill. So he followed this feeling wanting to see what it was.
Hill outside of the Tsuyoi Kingdom…
Inuyasha looked around and he saw what caused him to feel that cold chill it was one of Kikyo's soul collectors, and whenever there's Kikyo's soul collectors there's…
"Hello Inuyasha."
