A/N: I know that lots of you don't read author's notes, but what the heck! I'll put one anyways! ;)

Important! – You demons out there, if you have a request tell me. For example: You may want your demon to take a character (of your choice) and force her to do things like stealing and killing people or things like that.

Here's the chapter (finally!)

Search for the Shikon Jewel Shards

Chapter 1

Howler, Ayana, Rose, Raven and Amy had been friends since they were kids. Now they were older and their relatives were all dead.

Demons had just entered the world and already thousands of people were dead.

These five friends had survived a ton of attacks from demons, in fact, they had been saving people from demons.

Out in the forest, in search of demons, the friends leaned against trees and talked.

'When are we going to slay another demon?' complained Rose. She twirled a strand of red hair that had gotten free of her ponytail.

'When we find another demon,' replied Ayana.

'When will that be?' asked Rose annoyingly.

'When we find another demon,' repeated Raven through clenched teeth.

'When-' began Rose.

Howla silenced Rose with a glare that could freeze fire.

Amy was off in her own little world. She liked to imagine the new demons that they were going to meet.

'Don't you glare at me!' exclaimed Rose. 'I'm just bored!'

'Well go be bored somewhere else!' retorted Howla.

'Maybe I should be bored somewhere else! It beats listening to you!' growled Rose.

'Great! Who needs you?' muttered Howla who was irritable because they hadn't slayed a demon in a long time.

Amy laughed out loud.

'What?' demanded Rose.

All four girls looked at Amy.

Amy smiled innocently at the four girls. 'Aren't we all great friends? I mean, we only yell at each other and tell each other to get lost!'

Raven snorted. 'Amy has a point, you know. The way Howla and Rose were fighting, you could never tell that we were best friends!'

Ayana grinned. 'We are a special group of friends. We fight so that we don't loose our friendship!'

Rose grinned and put her arm around Amy's shoulders. 'Yup.'

Raven sighed. 'Wow. We are totally bored. It shows.'

Howler was staring off in space in one of her usual trances.

Ayana pulled out her large butcher knife and started to slash at the surrounding trees.

Amy took out her arrows, lit them on fire, ice and lightning and shot them at the trees. Rose would do her Rose dance and put out the fires that Amy would start.

Raven was controlling the minds of the birds around her. She was making them fly in circles and twitter loudly.

Howla sat on the ground, put her head between her knees and stared at the ground.

After a couple of minutes Amy walked slowly over to Howler and sat down beside her. 'What are you thinking?' she asked softly.

'I'm going to go tonight,' answered Howler simply.

Amy nodded. She knew that it was best not to speak when Howler was like this. Howler moods rampaged at times when she was off in trances.

Howler stood up and walked over to an extremely large tree. She pulled out her sword and stood poised to slice the tree. She just stood there.

Everyone stopped what they were doing to watch Howler. It was a rare occasion when Howla used her Tetsusaiga outside of a battle.

The wind blew through the five friend's hair.

In a split second the thick-trunked tree was sliced in half.

Howler walked off into the trees as the tree fell to the ground.

A/N: That was odd. :S I am going to work on the other characters next chapter.
