InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Miko's Sorrow ❯ Prologue ( Chapter 1 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Disclaimer: I don't want to own Inuyasha. Nope. Way to much publicity involved!

(Even though I have Inuyasha tied up in my room)

Prologue:

I have been a Miko for quite some time now. I've been trained to be one ever since I was about ten, but I have forgotten about age altogether now.

We are trained, so we don't fear death. We cannot love. In fact, we must give up all feeling we might have. We must be stone cold. For a Miko cannot show any emotion, or risk losing her life.

A Miko cannot truly be considered as a true person anymore. They can't feel emotions, can't love, nor hate. All we do is wait, we wait to protect our village. That is all we can truly do. In my case however, I must protect the Shikon no Tama.

Many demons seek this jewel. Greed, is that not what they call this? I wouldn't know greed anymore. I have no feelings.

Why must we kill even the greediest of demons? After all, even if we despise them, being different, aren't they living beings too? No, I was told not to think about this.

In fact, I was told not to think, just to act. All I am allowed to do is destroy those who attack the village, and who search for the Jewel.

So, I wait here alone. It is a lonely life, being a Miko that is.

A Miko has only one true goal. She wishes to be a real person.

Yes. A Miko, such as me, wants to rid of the jewel.

She wants to be able to love, and be happy again.

I will wait for that day to come. For as the villagers all say, love will find a way. I believe that my true love will come for me one day. He will make me happy, have the jewel rid of for me, and love me unconditionally.

For now though, I will protect the jewel until that day comes.

AN:

A sad story for Kikyo isn't it? :(

Well, tell me what you think. If I get reviews, I'll keep writing. I have an idea for the first chapter, but if no one wants to read it, I won't make it. Please Review!
