AN- thanks for the reviews I got . I know sometimes my writing is a bit wordy but I just can't help it at times .Plus I'm doing all my fanfics from my iPods notepad so it's not easy to type up and I tends to miss the grammar errors sorry ill try my best. Ohh and just a small warning again there are gonna be quite a few OOC characters along with a few OC characters made for this storyline .

PS. koga is a bit OOC in this chapter . Hes more mean and rude plus greedy as hell ohh and some point killer sorry koga fangirls . The story will explain why later ... Ok enough of me on with the story !

I dreaded my walk back to the clan . Though the day was beatiful and I couldn't complain I knew when I got home I'd have to face my brother which is the last thing I wanted to do.

With the coming about of the shikon jewel my brothers greed increased and he became ruthless. Taking the shards no matter what the cost ... Even if it meant his own tribe mates . So many live have been lost and it made me sick to my stomach.

Not to mention my brother deep distrust of me . I knew at this very moment someone was bound to be watching me making sure I don't do anything st-

I stopped in my tracks ...

" Dammit ! " i yelled into the sky . If I am being watched - which no doubt I am - that means koga will know I gave up some jewel shards and then to a dog demon at that !

I kept walking home dreading it even more my steps weighed down with worry now. I could pick up the scent from the clan and and koga . He was drawing near probably to speak to me outside clan borders . The smell grew stronger the closer he got . He smelled like blood and something I could never place . The scent disgusted to the very deepest puts of my stomach.

Not a minute sooner did koga show up glaring at me. His cold blue eyes much like my own but filled with a lust for power that was never sated. I hate those eyes for I had know what they have seen and refused to believe.

" what do you want koga ?" I knew what he wanted or I was at least sure I knew. His comrades were sure to have told him everything by now . They trusted him all to much . They should have know better than to trust the fool who sends them into bloody battles for his own sake !

" where are they !? " his voice laced with annoyance and anger. Cringing slightly I wanted to push my luck . Might as well have a bit of fun if he is already this angry.

" what do you mean ? Ohh the jewel shards ? " I asked, " I gave them to some half demon named inuyasha !" I filled my voice with fake cheer to infuriate him futher. His eyes narrowed significantly as he clenched his jaw and spoke through his teeth.

"get to the tribe ...Now ! " I smiled and ran off past him hoping to reach the border quickly . The trees became a blur as I ran past them my speed almost that of my brother but not quite there yet. I smiled to myself knowing I could almost beat him.

When I finally reach the tribe I felt the uneasyness of the wolves there. Could they sense my anger about someone telling koga so easily ?

One of the wolves with bright orange fur pointed his nose towards where I saw ginta showing off to a younger wolf demon warrior. He had reached 12 years of age last year and at that time became old enough to fight in battles thanks to kogas newest law proclaiming that a boy of 12 was plenty old to fight. Still to me they were mere children ! He was no exception.

His name is Ventsu . Hes strong and a skilled fighter. Never one to give up easily and his emerald green eyes showed excitement in everything he did even slightly being covered by his messy short black hair .

" Yanei ! " he shouted seeing me walk towards them. He smiled up at me with child like happiness . I never understood what made him so happy to see me besides the fact I was his guardian and trainer.

I told him to run off I need to talk to ginta. He nodded happily and said he'd see me at practice later that day. I nodded smiling at him then I noticed ginta trying to move away carefully from me. "Ginta were do you think your going ?"

He stopped in his tracks face going white and then he tried to bolt for it. Unluckily for him he tried falling to the ground with a hard thud . He looked up to me standing over him eyes widen

"umm ... Hi Yanei how has your day been ?" a fake smile plasterd on his face which was still white like a ghost . He new I was angry and he was scared. And his fear was understandable, I was second in command and was well respected throughout the clan . It was a reasonable fear.

"Ginta you told koga didn't you ?" he went even paler if possible and nodded . I sighed partly in annoyance of his actions and Partially becuase of my own inability to contain my anger and directing it at him.

I pulled him up onto his feet. He still looks scared so I nodded and have him a sign to get moving along. He nodded and ran off quickly as he could. With that done I decided it was probably best to head to my chamber* for a bit to rest.

My chamber was fairly large and spacious it was light by small white candles placed near the caverns stone walls. Near the entrance was an oval shaped reflective stone that I could see myself in.

I looked at myself carefully in the stone to see i looked quite the mess. My back lenght straight black hair was a disheveled mess with my bangs sticking up in the oddest ways. My black top though was clean but torn up on the edges both or my fur shoulder pads looked like fluff balls and my fur skirt also looked like it had been hit with lightning .

I sighed deciding I should go to the water fall to get myself cleaned at least . I got a spare kimono I had and threw it over my shoulder .

I walked out of my chamber quickly moving to the borders but not before Ventsu running up to me .

" where are you headed lady yanei ?" he question looking puzzled his cute little emerald eyes set under his eyebrows furrowed in concern. Smiling at him lightly I got down to his level

" sorry Ventsu but I'm heading to the river to clean up before training . Remeber be there on time I need you to help me with the new fighters " Ventsu nodded smiling brightly . I ruffled his soft black before giving him a hug and watching him run off with some small wolf pups.

Smiling a bit to myself I kept walking through the forest the sun was still high in the sky and the wind was blowing softly . The peace of the day was something I experienced very little of and I enjoyed it will it lasted.

I reached the waterfall quickly and laid down my clothing on a dry rock near the water. Then I dived into the cold water . It wasn't freezing but not exactly warm either it was crystal clemear so I could see the bottom of the river which wasn't very deep and only reached my shoulders. The cool water felt amazing to me as I went under the gentle waterfall cleaning my hair .

When I was done I got out a dried of to put on my black kimono with red flowers on edge of the sleeves. It was short enough as to not restrict my movement all to much .

I cleaned my clothing as well and carried them over my shoulder and walked through the forest once more to head home .

Getting there I made quick and put my clothing in my room before walking back to the forest it was getting time to Gi to the training grounds and I didn't want to be late .

I walked past the tribes borderline just enjoying the peace while I walked quickly . The afternoon sunshine streamed through the leaves filtering the light through the forest slightly . No sounds besides my soft footsteps .

I reached training ground which was an open circuiwr field and saw our 3 groups spread out around the area .

They were the older warriors many very experienced fighter and very use to helping teach the smaller ones. Most of these wolves had seen the pain of war and it killed us all knowing we were basically training children to fight .

Then they were the intermediate wolves . They weren't exactly elite fighter but they were much better than the young lung and much more experienced . Most of them were a few years younger than me, they were strong and quick. Ventsu although being the youngest of them was in this group thanks to his abilities and strength as a fighter .

And last there were the new reqruites , thanks to my brothers law 12 year olds were now becoming warriors ! I despised it but I had no choice in the matter and it was better for them to at least become as strong as possible if they were being forced into it.

I walks over the group of the innocent looking young wolves . Many of them scared knowing my brother as of late has been sending off many warriors . I couldn't blame them for their fear I knew it all to well .

I got over to them and looked over the group most of then looked about ventsu age . So I decided to call him over . He walked up to me and the group of kids looking over at them carefully probably remembering when he was in their shoes .

" Ventsu you seem to be of the same age group as these young ones here . If you don't mind can you to share you experience with them ? " I asked him smiling ever so slightly . He nodded and turned toward the group acting as calm as possible though I knew on the inside he wasn't as he appeared

" hmm where I can I begin ? Well I started training a year ago with yanei at 12 . She sparred with me constantly to help me but in less than 2 months of training I went into my first battle ..." Ventsu stopped seeing as how some of the wolves had either whine gasped or cringed . I nodded for him to continue .

" I wasn't sure I was ready yet when I fought I found I could predicted my opponents moves easily . This led me to win and barely get hurt besides a gash on my back from a sneak attack " Ventsu finished I nodded smiling then I decided I would let that sit on there heads for awhile while I paired them up to spar. They would do fine .

Many of the Younglings even went against Ventsu as a challenge and in the end of the day I saw quite the potential in them all .

The day has ended and night had come . I went home hoping to finally get some rest as the day seem so long . Yet my rest didn't last to long ...
