Prologue
"Beginning with a Twist"
It's a simple story when two people fall in love. Boy meets girl, girl meets girl, boy meets boy, they meet each other, the first step is always the same even with different ingredients. That's always the beginning, and the middle is the part where they fall in love. The ending is where they are in love. The story is not always happy, but it's a story with a beginning, a middle, and an end.
But this story is somehow not quite as simple. This story is starting with quite the twist.
They stared at each other from across the bridge. The frail thing barely holding on as the logs rattled in the wind. The steep drop below the swinging bridge seemed almost bottomless. The setting sun casts shadows on the side of the cliff. The girl on one side stared into the light, her eyes never moving from her target.
The bridge swayed heavier in the wind, something snapped.
He never looked away from her, his sensitive ears twitched on his head, following the sound of the snapping ropes, but his amber eyes stared clean across the crumbling bridge. He couldn't look away from her eyes even if he tried. He was trapped, unable to think clearly. Tunnel vision taking affect as his eyes were distracted by the glow of her skin in the setting sun.
'Don't do this.'
The wind picked up, blowing against the girl's kimono, almost as though the wind itself was ushering her to cross the bridge. She didn't move her feet, though her hips swayed from the push, her pale hair whipping up into her face as she struggled to keep her eyes open. Her scent was carried across, and he felt himself automatically inhaling deeper.
The logs on the bridge came loose as the chords snapped. Pieces began to fall freely as the ropes on the bridge slowly broke further from the swaying effect of the wind. They cracked on rock formations as they fell deeper into the chasm. The sound echoing in both their ears.
She turned away first, facing into the shadows as she took her steps forward. He panicked, realizing that this, this was it. If she left-
"This is forever then!" She stopped at his words, and so he continued. "You know what this means. You walk away right now and this is the end. Do you understand me?!"
He thought that it would make her reconsider. He thought that it would make her hesitate, that somehow she would see how she was wrong, how she couldn't leave him.
She couldn't leave him.
His eyes caught the minuscule movement of her head as she looked over her shoulder. Her body turned slightly as well, and he was once again he was struck at the glow in her eyes. Her face had always remained flawless, clear and smooth, but her eyes had always shown the truth. And the truth he saw in those eyes was that there was nothing, nothing he could say to bring her back. The once vibrant eyes were dismissive, cold, matching the rest of her face.
The the tiniest of threads was holding on the bridge, but the weight of the logs was breaking it. There was just too much for it to bear.
She turned her body away, and he watched as she slipped from his fingers.
The wire snapped, and the bridge fell loose as a cold wind blew once more.
All that was left was an empty chasm, one that neither could fill.
It's a not so simple twist. It is a twist of allies becoming enemies. Where the ones you love are the ones that hurt you the most.
Hi Y'all.
This idea popped into my head the other day when I was revisiting Inuyasha after a long long hiatus. I felt in the groove so, here ya go.
This story is a slow burn Inuyasha x OC, but it may pick up in speed sooner than you think. Do I have plans? Eh, sort of, I just really wanted to give it a try. It's the first anime I ever watched so I wanted to write something fun for it. Please let me know whatcha think! I'm playing around with a few ideas but we shall see what stems from it.
This story will contain R rated material. There will be a lot of gore, swearing, sexual content and sensitive topics. I love nitty gritty demonic lust filled romance stories for inuyasha, and I low key love the whole 'sweet human and possessive demon' play. Though I will be taking a different angle to it.
I do not give warnings for triggers unless it is heavily requested as I feel it diminishes the tempo of the chapter. if you have an extreme sensitivity to certain topics I can arrange for some minor trigger warning, however otherwise I don't necessarily recommend this story for you.
Having said that, I hope you enjoy the story.
Toodles,
Iland Girl
