Chapter 2: InuYasha.

When InuYasha turned five, that was when he was beginning to wonder about his ears.

He had seen all the people in the village with normal ears on the sides, and black or brown hair, even his mother had black hair.

InuYasha had pointed gray ears, that were tucked into his long gray hair.

Everytime he heard a sound, he would feel those ears twitch.

Also, everyone though his eye color was off, liquid topaz.

His mother had sapphire blue eyes, that shined like diamonds.

Though, he had never seen his father, maybe InuYasha got his looks from his father, maybe he wasn't the only one.

As he roamed through the busy village that day kicking and chasing his little bouncy ball around, the toy wandered off and landed in someone's hands.

InuYasha went up to the tall person and asked for his ball back.

The man just laughed, and tossed the ball the opposite way from InuYasha, and walked off into the crowd.

InuYasha chased after the ball, trying to catch it before it went into the woods.

He jumped and caught it.

" InuYasha." His mother's graceful voice called.

He turned to look at her, standing in the crowd, but InuYasha only imagined her alone, in an open land.

Forgetting his favorite ball, which bounced to the edge of the forest, InuYasha ran into his mothers arms.

Now, he asked the question that had been on his mind for a long time, " Mother, what's a half-breed?" InuYasha tried to pronounce the word.

She never answered, she just remained silent, and he could smell salt water, and when he looked at her, she was crying.

Oh no, was there something he had done, did he hurt her?

" InuYasha, a your father, was a great dog demon, he is the reason that you have such strange traits, they are not strange at all, you have half of his traits, and the rest are my traits, you will be stronger than any human, you will be faster than any human, and one day, you will learn your own powers and carry on in your fathers' place." His mother explained.

InuYasha thought over the news.

So he was half demon on his fathers side, and half human on his mothers side? And she wanted him to act like his father?

Years passed and InuYasha was aging more and more.

There came the day where InuYasha went into his mothers' room to wake her up for the morning, but she never woke up.

InuYasha told the villagers about this, and they prepared a funeral.

They buried her near a tree that always bloomed pretty flowers.

When InuYasha visited her grave one morning, it was then that he met a strange flee that spoke of his father.

" InuYasha, is that you?" The little bug squeaked out.

InuYasha didn't know that bugs could speak.

" I am..."

The bug was cut off by InuYasha's hand slapping down on him, crushing him flat.

" myoga." The flee squeaked out his last word.

When InuYasha moved his hand away, the bug returned his normal shape.

" Wait!" Myoga stopped InuYasha from doing another slap.

" I am a friend of your fathers'." Myoga announced.

" My father?" InuYasha asked.

" Yes, how have you been." He asked.

" Not so well." InuYasha said, sitting back down to look at his mothers' grave.

" Ooh, it was her time eh?" Myoga asked.

" Yes."

" Why don't you give her a farewell present?" Myoga suggested.

InuYasha thought about something that would be good for his mother.

He looked up at the tree.

He stood and climbed the tree and soon came back down with a handful of flowers.

He laid them down on the thickening soil.

" I'm sure she would have loved those." Myoga said.

InuYasha nodded.

He said his last farewell to his mother, and left.

From that moment on, InuYasha let Myoga teach him how to be like his father.

InuYasha started out by staying near human villages, and killing demons that tried to come.

Until one day, they no longer trusted him, and thought of him as a threat.

InuYasha then lived in the forest, Myoga always seemed to disappear right before a demon would arrive, and he would spend his precious time slaughtering the thing.

InuYasha began to grow annoyed by the little insect, though he did learn more and more about his father being the great dog demon.

He also had a brother named Sesshomaru, but Myoga suggested that it would be best if InuYasha stayed away from Sesshomaru.

Years passed and InuYasha's desire for killing demons became almost obsessive.

He hid in deep caves during new moon nights, but when morning came he was back to his desire of killing.

Everytime he started to wonder what it would be like to kill a human, but he immediately let go of the thought when he thought of his mother.

More and more demons came in search of InuYasha trying to take him on, but of course, InuYasha had learned a lot more techniques.

Nothing could ever touch him.

He didn't need anyone.

Until one new moon night when he finds a woman wandering through his woods in the pouring rain...

Kikyo.
