InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Miko's Sorrow ❯ Hanyou ( Chapter 9 )

Disclaimer: WAAAAHH! I don't own Inuyasha! I really, really want to though.

Chapter 8: Hanyou

I don't get it.

Why was there a boy pinned to a tree, by a single arrow nonetheless?

It looked like he was floating in mid air. He was being held up by growth from the tree, otherwise he would have surely fallen off. Taking a closer look though, I noticed that this was no ordinary boy. Who else had silver hair, and dog ears. This boy looked like he had just come out from some fairy tale. His clothes weren't any better. I had never known anyone to wear such a unique style of clothing, other than my grandpa. I remember he told me once that it was called a "Miko's Garb."

How odd.

He looked so sweet hanging from there though. Such a peaceful face, reminded me of my little brother, when he wasn't being a jerk!

That boy looked like a cat, or maybe a dog.

I just couldn't resist, I had to see if his ears were real. Climbing up, I gently reached up and stroked the dainty ears.

They were real.

Okay, now I was officially freaked out! I had been pulled into a well by a giant centipede, lost sight of my home, and now, I've found dog boy! What a day, what a day! I heard rustling behind me, but didn't think anything of it, that is until an arrow whizzed by my face.

Men shouting at me, believing I was a spy.

They tied me up, and brought me to some sort of village. Villagers crowded around me. They actually believed I was a spy, or a kitsune. Now, why would I be a fox? Did I look like a fox, I think not!

The voices started growing dimmer, and villagers parted off to the side.

An ancient hag walked down the center of the path. What was so special about this old bat? She didn't look like a leader to me! Wait, it was the Miko's clothing again. Now why would this old woman wear the same thing as that boy I saw on the tree? Why was everything all of a sudden leading up to that boy?

The woman pulled out a brown bag of some sort, and starting flinging sand at me, while chanting "Demon be gone."

Now wait just a second!

I am not a demon!

Still yelling at the old witch, she grabbed my face, and started observing me. Who did she think she was?

I was looked at strangely by the old woman, before she sent for the villagers to untie me.

I followed her into her hut.

AN: Sorry it is taking me so long to update. It's just, I haven't exactly had time with school going on you know? I'm bringing this story up to a close. Thanks for all the reviews I have received. Really appreciate it. //^.)>
