Chapter 4
It was getting easier for InuYasha now. He could fight, and keep himself fed. He had summed up the courage to do something he'd wanted to for a year now. Two years had past since his mothers death, and this was the first he had visited her grave since her death. Now standing in front of the very grave he dug with his bare hands. He spoke to his mother.
"Hey mom, I know I've been away for awhile. Sorry about that, I wasn't ready to face this spot. Even now it hurts like hell to be here. I'm doing great now mom, I have a lot more bad days then good days. But I'm getting stronger, and I have new powers too. This really nice village lady took me in shortly after you died. She taught me a lot, how to cook, and live off the land. I wish you could see how great I'm getting with fighting."
He looked down at his claws, flexing them. "I don't like killing mom, but I need to survive somehow. I found out that my attacks are very deadly. My first attack is iron reaver soul stealer. And my second is blades of blood, which is my last resort if things get really bad during a fight."
He looked at the flowers he picked to place on her grave. "I know we didn't have much time together mother. It seems unfair that you were taken so soon. But then I remember how hard things were for you. As much as I'd love to have you here by my side. At least I know you are safe from being hounded about being a mother to a dirty hanyou."
Placing the flowers down on the grave. He then stood back and looked at his work. "Don't worry mother I think I'm going to keep going in life, who knows what I'll end up doing. I might end up saving the world." He chuckled at such thoughts, him save the world.
"I'm going to head out mom. But I'll return again soon, after all I feel closer to you here." He stood and started walking away. Stopping a few feet away he looked back and smiled. 'Maybe live was worth living.' He thought, slightly smiling to himself.
He was now a day away from his mother's grave. When a smell came to him, it almost smelled like him. A figure came into view and InuYasha quick jumped high into a tree. He watched carefully as this demon came closer. His hair was silver like his, and his eyes golden.
He tried to get a better look, but the branch gave way. He fell right into the demons path. "So it is you little brother. I see you are fairing quite well on your own. Sadly this Sesshomaru is not like other demons, I am stronger then any other demon in this world."
InuYasha started to slowly back away. This demon meant business, and what did he mean by calling him little brother? Something about this demon had InuYasha scared. He wasn't scared up until now. But now all he wanted to do was run for his life. Not wasting anytime InuYasha jumped to his feet and ran as fast as he could from this so called Sesshomaru demon.
"Heh, so you don't know who I am little brother. Pathetic, to think you are still alive. Yet you run from me, we shall meet again. And next time I will make sure you know who I am, half breed."
