Chapter 6: What's going on?

I opened my eyes and smiled when I saw my father standing there. He had short silver hair with a bang that covered his right eye. He had bright blue eyes that were darker than the ocean. He wore a long sleeved white buttoned up shirt. It was neatly tucked into his blue jeans. He wore tight blue jeans that were tightened at his waist by a black belt. He wore blue sneakers that were too large for his feet.

"Yune, did you hurt your knee?" My father asked me as I nodded.

"Don't cry ok? Daddy will make everything better." My father said to me as I smiled.

"Thank you daddy." I replied to him

"Your welcome Yune."

I felt the warm summer breeze come and push my hair to the left. I looked at my father and gasped. I saw his right eye for the first time in my life. It had a small black scar that went from the top of his eyebrow down to the end of his eye. His eyeball was a dark blue color and his eye was a dark red color. I gasped again and he looked up.

He noticed that his hair was up. He grabbed it and pulled it down. He looked at my shocked face and sighed.

"Sorry about that Yune." He said to me

"W-What's wrong with your eye daddy?" I asked him

"…You see, daddy is special. Different from your mother and anyone else. Daddy has a dark secret. You have to promise you won't tell mommy okay?"

"Okay. I promise."

"Daddy, he's a scary monster. But I used to be scary. Than I learned how to love, how to feel. I had you, Yune. And your mother to help me with that."

"…Is Yune a monster too?"

"W-What?"

"If you're a monster am I one?"

"You are not a monster Yune. You are a beautiful young lady. Always remember that. No matter who tells you differently."

"…Okay!"

"Now, Daddy has a present for you Yune."

"W-What is it?"

"Close you eyes."

I quickly shut my eyes and waited. I felt something press down on my legs.
"Open your eyes." I heard my father said as I did.

I saw a sword with a beautiful sheath. It had a red ribbon surrounding the handle. At the end of the sword was a pendant. This pendant was being held by a red ribbon. The pendant was a silver heart.

"A s-sword?" I asked

"Yes, I know it might not make sense to you. But you will need it in the future. Please hang on to it." My father told me.

"Of course daddy! Thank you!"

"Your welcome sweetie. Can you do me a favor?"

"Yes?"

"Whenever you are feeling down or upset. I want you to look at that heart and remember that right here-" my father said as he pointed to where my heart was "You have a heart. And feelings. I want you to remember that even when everything looks bad, that your heart will get you past it. I want you to remember that I will always love you, no matter what." My father finished as I smiled

"I'll remember daddy."

"Good, now let's get you home."

"Aww do we have to go?"

"Come on, your mother will kill me if I don't have you home in time."

"Fine…"

I felt my eyes open. I shot up and looked around the area. I looked down at my sword that was laying down beside me. I starred at the silver heart that was still attached to the swords handle. I felt a tear stream down my left cheek. Is this what he meant? Did he know that I would end up here and need to remember that I'll get past it no matter how hard the situation is?

I looked around and felt a chill come down my spin. I saw a d-dragon? It had two heads. It had a light brown body and an even lighter brown underbody. It had a black main that ended at the beginning of its back. It had large yellow eyes with a thin line for the pupil. It wore a black mussel around its mouth. There was a brown rein that was attached at the mussels. On its back was a black saddle with a red rim around it. It had a very long brown tail that was up in the air.

The dragon turned to me and I gulped. I starred into it's eyes. Waiting for it to move and eat me. But it stayed there. Not moving an inch from where it is.

"Ah-Un!" A female voice said as I looked around to find the source.

I gasped when I saw a little human girl coming up to the dragon. I stood up, ignoring the pain that shot through my body when I did, and went in front of the demon. The little girl gave me a confused look.

"You shouldn't be near this demon." I said as she just gave me a reassuring smile.

"Ah-Un is my friend." The little girl said as I couldn't ignore the pain anymore.

I fell to my knees and gripped my right arm in pain. The little girl came up to me and I looked up to her. She had long black hair and bit of it tied into a ponytail on the left side of her head. She had light brown eyes. She had a orange and pale yellow kimono. It had little bubbles on them. The kimono was held tightly back by a green bow. She wore no shoes, none at all.

"It…It's your friend?" I panted as she nodded.

"Now go lay down, you still need rest." She ordered as I went back to where I was laying before.

"W-Why you helping me?" I asked her as I laid down and she knelt down beside me.

"Because, you were hurt."

"But…I'm a demon. I can be evil."

"You aren't evil."

"How do you know? I can be."

"I can tell. Besides, it doesn't matter. I had to help you. You needed help."

"…T-Thank you."

"Your welcome."

"…Aren't you scared of me?"

"No…why would I be scared?"

"Because I'm a demon."

"No. I find humans more scary."

"W-Why is that?"

"My father, mother, brothers, and sisters…were murdered by bandits."

"I…I'm sorry."

"Don't be. It's alright…Are you ok?"

"Huh? I'm alright why?"

"You were crying in your sleep…"

"I was?"

"Yes…And you even said that they are scared of me…"

"A…W-well…that was…"

"What's wrong? You can tell me…"

"…My friends thought I was scary…so I ran away."

"What? How could you be scary?"

I felt the sadness built up in me. My fists clenched and I turned away from the little girl. I felt my fangs grow to a point where they were out of my mouth. You mean even sadness triggers this demon inside of me?

"What's wrong?" The little girl asked as I turned back to her.

"This is why they are scared of me." I told her as she smiled.

"Why you smiling?" I asked her

"You aren't scary at all. So what if your eyes change and your claws and fangs grow. That's no big deal at all. You are still you."

"…T-thank…you."

I lightly grabbed her arm and pulled her into a hug without even thinking. I just had to thank her. She just helped me feel happy even when the others were terrified of me. I let her go and smiled at her.

"Sorry 'bout that." I said to her as she shook her head

"Don't be. By the way, I'm Rin." She replied to me

"I'm Yune."

Just than I saw someone coming to us from the right. I turned around and saw a women standing there. I gasped as she held her Chinese fan out as if though it was her weapon. She wore a magenta and white kimono. On the kimono were small butterflies. The kimono was tied back by a yellow bow. She wore brown sandals. She had her black hair tied into a bun. By her bun were two feathers. She had deep red eyes and green circled earrings.

I stood up ignoring the pain and put a hand on my swords handle. She gave me glare as my eyes winced at the pain that continuously shot through my body. I don't know who she is or why she is here…I just have a bad feeling about her. And I have to protect Rin.

"Who are you?" the women asked me

"I'm Yune. Who are you?" I asked her

"Name's Kagura."

"Kagura!"

"Heard of me?"

"Y-You are Naraku's incarnation!"

"Yes…sadly I am."

"What do you want?"

"You and Rin."

"Rin and me? Why would you want us? And why Rin!"

"As if you didn't know. To lure Inuyasha's group and Sesshomaru to our castle."

"S-Sesshomaru?"

"Yes…Did you not know? This girl works under Sesshomaru."

"W-Well that doesn't matter! You can't take her! Or me."
"Watch me."

She moved her fan and I saw blades just come out of her fan. I turned to Rin. I knelt down to her and put my arms around her. I felt the pain begin on my back. I could feel the blades slice my back. One blade cut open the muscle connecting my left shoulder to the left side of my neck. I screamed in pain but stood still. I'm not letting her hurt Rin.

Blades continued to hit me. Slicing my arms, legs, and my back. The pain was horrifying. But in the end if Rin was saved than my goal was complete. I don't know why but I began to become very protective of her. I didn't want anything to befall this girl.

"R-Rin…" I whispered as I heard her sob a bit

"Y-Y-Yune…" She whispered back.

"Do…exactly…as I-I say. G-Get…on Ah-un…and…leave…" I whispered to her

"W-What about you?"

"J-Just…go…"

"But Yune!"

I saw Ah-un go in front of us. I knew this was my chance. I grabbed Rin and without her consent put her on Ah-Un. I nodded to Ah-Un as it flew off taking the scared Rin with it. I took out my sword and turned back to Kagura.

"You! Well. It doesn't matter, we will get her eventually. You are just delaying it." Kagura said as I smirked

"If what you…said about Rin is true…She'll tell…Sesshomaru." I told her as she frowned

"…You can just slowly die from Naraku's miasma..."

"Heh…Mad that I screwed up your plans?"

"Not even a little bit."

I smiled at her but than felt this huge pain come into all of my scars. I screamed in pain. This is unbearable…I fell to my knees and my hands hit the ground supporting me. I felt my eyes get heavy. My vision began to become more blurry with every second.

I looked back at Kagura to see her come closer to me. What did she do to me? She didn't even move her fan…She knelt down to me.

"Miasma is a poisonous gas even you won't be able to survive. Now, whose plan got screwed up?" She said as I felt my arms buckle.

I fell to the ground and felt my eyes drop. Damn…Damn her.
