Hidden Emotions
 
Sada laughed as her three children ran into the room, tackling her to the floor. She hugged them all and told them to wash up for dinner. They all obeyed like good little children and went to the stream behind their home.
 
Sada sighed happily as she set up things for dinner. Nine years today she had been married to Bankotsu and she couldn't be happier. She had three beautiful children, eight year old Shikamaru, and the five year old twins Haru and Hana. They all looked so much like their father.
 
Bankotsu and Sada had settled down and didn't shed as much blood now that they had children. Once Shikamaru was old enough though, they'd let him decide whether he wanted to follow in their footsteps. That would decide if they'd give up their killing sprees.
 
The rest of the Band of Seven hadn't changed so drastically. They all pretty much went their separate ways a year after Shikamaru was born. Jakotsu was still flirting with handsome men, and killing them when they rejected him. He took a few tips from Sada and `played' with them before he tossed them aside. Suikotsu had dealt with his weaker half and was now a mercenary, doing anything for the right price. Ginkotsu and Renkotsu were still together. Ginkotsu was a powerful weapon for hire and Renkotsu was a powerful weapon smith.
 
Suikotsu had just finished another job. He had to assassinate some lord or something. Easy money, and of course he over charged. He counted the money as he walked, a grin plastered on his lips. Man, this was the easy life. Pretty much how it was before they were killed. He shook his head. Thinking about the old days made him miss his comrades. Not something he could afford right now. Well, maybe he could.
 
As he walked, Suikotsu began to get a weird feeling in the back of his mind. He stopped claws ready. He looked around, trying to find anything hiding in the trees.
 
“Peh… probably just some lowly demon.”
 
He shook his head and continued on, but that feeling kept nagging at him. He stopped again, now beginning to get aggravated.
 
“Stop hiding and come out!”
 
Nothing…
 
“Come out you weakling!”
 
Nothing…
 
Suikotsu scoffed to himself and started up again, but just as he did, he got blasted back by a demonic attack. He looked up from the ground at his attacker. No… it was impossible… there was no way!
 
Standing there in front of him was the silver haired hanyou that caused him so much grief nine years ago… but there was no way… Sada slaughtered him! Oh well, no matter now. Just meant he'd get the pleasure. But there was something different. Just the air around him was filled with a dark, powerful force.
 
That didn't bother him. He simply ignored it and lunged at him. Inuyasha simply moved out of the way. He grabbed Suikotsu and threw him through a few trees. Suikotsu couldn't move for a moment. Since when did he get that fast? He managed to look up at the hanyou… he was so much more demonic now… His eyes were red with blue pupils and he had a purple stripe on each cheek, his fangs so much more grown out. It was enough to make Suikotsu shake in fear.
 
Inuyasha cracked his knuckles as he glared down at one of the people who made his life turn into a living hell. This was going to be a pleasurable kill… something he hadn't felt in a long time. He lost his humanity. He was pure demon now… and without the Shikon no Tama. He could remember everything as he stalked closer to his paralyzed prey…
 
It was the same night… Sada had left him for dead…but he managed to hold on. He pulled himself up, looking at his love's mutilated corpse. Rage filled him and gave him the strength to make it to Kaede's village. It was there he let his wounds heal, the rage in him only growing. He couldn't do anything but blame himself for what happened to Kagome and his friends… it was his fault… It was Kikyo all over again… but this time… he had a part in it… He could have stopped it this time… but he was too weak to do anything… it was his fault… all his fault…
 
No… It was Sada's fault as well… If Sada hadn't come along, he would have been able to kill the Band of Seven and Naraku… and Kagome would still be alive. It's all that bitch's fault. It was then he swore that he'd hunt her down.
 
Since then, he spent his time training, becoming stronger. He kept getting sick, due to the wound Sada left him, but he just saw that as another obstacle for him to over come on his path to becoming stronger.
 
Kaede died a few years into his training. He loved the old hag, and again, this just pushed him even further. Then, one day, he got into a battle he couldn't handle. He couldn't remember all that happened, but all the rage he felt from being weak for Kagome just pushed him over the edge. He transformed into his demon form, even while holding the Tetsusaiga.
 
This was it… the power he's wanted for so long… Now, he could find that bitch, Sada, and take his revenge. He would avenge Kagome and his friends… no matter what.
 
Here was his first stepping stone. Kill one member of the Band of Seven and the others will surely hear of it. He extends his claws, Suikotsu looking terrified… the same look he and Kagome held all those years ago. With one enraged swipe, he sliced Suikotsu to ribbons, his blood splashing everywhere.
 
He flicked the blood off his claws and his knuckles cracked as he clenched his hand into a fist at his side. One down… now, the next one… Renkotsu.
