++Kyasha's story++
`Where am I?' Kagome asked herself as she slowly pulled herself out of her unconscious state. She looked around, finding herself tied up at her wrists.
“You're finally awake. The lord wants to see you.” A youkai said, grabbing her and pulling her along the ground, not even waiting for her to stand up.
“Where am I?” Kagome demanded.
“You are not to speak unless spoken to bitch.” The youkai growled. Kagome decided to stay quiet and wait to meet this so-called `lord' of theirs really was.
Kagome looked at her surroundings. It was an old, eighteenth century castle, having stone walls and torches along the wall giving off the only light in the dark corridors. She felt like rubbing her wrists, but knowing that this youkai wasn't going to let go of her hand she decided to keep quiet.
`Where is everyone?' Kagome thought to herself. Memories of that night when she was kidnapped played through her mind. `Kyasha…what ever happened to her? I hope she's safe…' She remembered seeing Kyasha's human self, but how could that be, it wasn't the first quarter moon was it? No, Kagome would've remembered.
“Hurry it up wench.” The youkai grumbled.
“Excuse me, but I'll go at my own pace.” The youkai growled and ripped her in front of him, almost tarring her arm off, Kagome had to stifle a scream of pain as the youkai pushed open two wooden doors as they both entered a rather large room.
“Good, you're awake…” A youkai said, he sat in a throne at the end of the room, it was too dark for Kagome to get any good details in. “You know what to do…the young girl and boy should arrive soon, be prepared get them to there room.” The youkai pulled Kagome into another hallway.
`Who else is coming?' Kagome kept thinking to herself, but the next thing she knew was she was being thrown into a room and the door clicked, meaning it had been locked, how was she ever get out of here.
`Help me…Inuyasha.' She whispered to herself as she slowly fell asleep again.

“When you and Lady Kagome took Kyasha home after she was born, you were planning on moving here and starting a new life, but when she couldn't get through the well…”
“We know already…but how did you?” Inuyasha grumbled.
“Yes, I have to side on Inuyasha, only Kagome, Inuyasha, and their children could go through.” Miroku stated.
“Yes, but that is the power of being a flea, when I drank Lord Inuyasha's blood, I end up receiving some of his qualities, like his ability of going through the well.” Everyone nodded in understanding. “When Kyasha couldn't get through, I saw as a young man just happened to be standing inside the shrine. I couldn't see any of his features seeing as it was too dark in the shade he had been standing in…I was able to get his attention and well…ended up getting him to take you in till the time was right.” Myouga gulped as he got a good look of the group's different level of disgust. “He grabbed Kyasha and ran. I followed and found out where he lived. I was about to inform you and Lady Kagome of her state, but your brother, Sesshoumaru, stopped me.”
“Sesshoumaru? Why the fuck did you listen to that bastard, and why would he do something like that?” Inuyasha growled.
“Yes, I wondered that for awhile, he never told me…but when Kyasha brought a friend over and her first transformation occurred…” He paused, everyone looked at Kyasha for a sign to continue, she nodded and everyone knew. “I believe I realized why Sesshoumaru didn't want me to bring Kyasha back to you…you see, her transformation was quite different from yours, Inuyasha.”
“How?” They all asked.
“Well, being a hanyou, she has your youkai blood, Lord Inuyasha, and you have your father's youkai blood, and we've learned in the past that if you are pushed, you will transform. Kyasha is a bit different. She also has her mother's blood, and since Lady Kagome is a miko, Kyasha is able to fight off her youkai blood.”
“But why did she transform at all then?” Inuyasha grumbled.
“It's because she doesn't have enough of it, she has more youkai blood from you. Daitan actually has more miko blood being that he has never transformed…and that I have tasted more of Lady Kagome's blood.” Myouga added.
“Keh.” He nodded to Myouga to continue.
“Yes, though she may not know it; she does fight with her youkai even though it is a losing battle. But when I saw her transformation, as she lost control of her conscious state, she…she called out to her…to you, Lord Inuyasha.” Everyone's eyes widened.
“You didn't tell me this!” Kyasha stood up.
“I couldn't…would you really understand if I told you that you called out to you parents?” Kyasha paused, and then sat down again with a pout on her face.
“So you're saying that she called to Inuyasha and Kagome right before she lost herself to her youkai?” Miroku asked.
“Yes, after that I went to Sesshoumaru for answers. He told me that Kyasha would have to learn to fight and begin to control her youkai, without her hanyou strength and physical ability she would be vulnerable against her youkai.”
“So that's why you allowed me to train with Taji…but, but why didn't you at least tell me that? I mean, it has nothing to do with my parents.”
“Wait, who the hell is Taji?” Inuyasha growled.
“He's a friend of mine back in my time, back when I was young, Myouga let me train with him, he's a youkai, wolf youkai to be exact.” Inuyasha growled.
“Yes, is their anything else you want to know?” Myouga asked.
“So, you don't know why I couldn't get through the well when I was a baby?” Kyasha asked.
“No, I believe that was done by another youkai, I'm just as confused as you are about the whole thing.” Kyasha nodded.
“I'm just going to take a walk, I'll be right back.” Kyasha stood up but was pushed back down.
“You aren't going out there alone; you're only a weak human now.” Inuyasha growled.
“Let me go Papa, I want to go and think is that all right with you?” Kyasha sarcastically stated.
“Inuyasha just let her go, she won't go very far.” Miroku commented. The men both looked up to find Kyasha had already left. Inuyasha growled and went after her, Miroku was about to stop him when Myouga stopped him.
“Miroku, maybe they both need to talk, this is quite a bit of information they both have now.” Miroku sighed in agreement.

Kyasha sat on a large rock just on the shore of the water of the rushing river. She thought of taking a bath, but decided against it, knowing she was in no mood to relax, her mother was still gone and she was still a weak human. What was she to do?
“Kyasha?” She turned to look at the voice that came to her.
“Papa, what are you doing here?” Kyasha asked as she stood up.
“I just came to see if you were alright, you looked pretty depressed back there…” Inuyasha mumbled.
“Oh I'm fine; it's just a bit overwhelming to listen to all that information, I'm just tired.” Inuyasha didn't believe her; she was as bad at lying as her mother was.
“Sure, now tell me the real reason…” Kyasha sighed; there was no use in lying to him.
“I'm…I'm just afraid, that's all…I know it seems like I'm a coward, but everything is happening at once, first I might become the Lady to the Western lands, Mama was kidnapped and still isn't back, and I still lost my hanyou and might never get it back, and then Myouga tells us all this information about my past…it's a little hard to take in and not go insane.” Kyasha sighed again; she had been doing that a lot lately.
Inuyasha didn't say anything as he watched Kyasha sigh and sit back down on the rock again; he couldn't help but feel sympathy for the young girl that had taken in so much responsibility just to stay with her family.
“I just need to be alone for awhile…okay?” Kyasha asked.
“Yeah.” Inuyasha mumbled as he started walking back to camp. “Kyasha?”
“Yeah?”
“Just…be careful.” Kyasha nodded.
“I will…” Then he was gone to leave her to her thoughts.

“Sango, when are Mama, Papa, and Kyasha gonna get back?” Daitan asked again.
“Not for awhile.” Sango sighed.
Daitan sat back down. He missed his family, a lot. They just left him without saying anything. No one was telling him a thing…
Loud crash and screams pulled him out of his thoughts. Sango ran out of the hut, signaling for him to stay back with the sleeping Hanna and Chansu while she took care of this.
Sango ran outside and saw a huge moth youkai. Grabbing her weapon, she darted back out into the field where the youkai were destroying huts and hurting the villagers.
Daitan was getting anxious for the battle to end. He peaked his head out and gasped at the size of the youkai, drawing its attention.
“Give me the hanyou boy!” The youkai demanded. Sango glanced back and saw Daitan standing just outside the hut.
“Daitan, get back in there!” Sango screamed. Daitan shook his head and ran back into the hut.
“Give me the hanyou now, or you will face the consequences.” The youkai stated as a loud shatter was heard behind the exterminator. Looking back she saw another moth youkai grabbed the hut and tare it into bits as he grabbed her children.
“No, let them go!” She screeched.
“Then give us the hanyou child.” Sango stood her ground; she would never endanger her children or her friend's.
“Never, you aren't hurting anyone. Daitan get to the well.” Sango called back. Daitan was sitting down holding his head as he saw Hanna and Chansu wake up and scream when they realized they were in the hands of a youkai,
“Daitan!” Sango screamed again, knowing he didn't hear her the first time. He looked up at her. “Get to the well, and don't look back!” Daitan nodded and ran for his life to the well, to his family in the future.
“He may be hanyou, but he still cannot outrun a youkai.” Sango gasped, as she looked back and saw another moth youkai after the boy.
“Run Daitan!” She knew she couldn't do anything if he got caught; all she could do was hope he would get to the well before that. (A/N: Sorry, but this just reminded me of that one scene from Forest Gump….RUN FOREST, RUN!!!!!)

Daitan was running for all he was worth, glancing back he saw a youkai catching up to him. He knew he wasn't going to make it so he jumped into a tree and tried to find a way to get the youkai away from the village.
“You cannot escape me hanyou…” The youkai called to him. Daitan cried, he was about to be captured by this moth youkai and he was never going to see his family ever again.
The youkai had his arms out ready to get the hanyou. But a bright light overcame the boy and the youkai was pushed away with an invisible force. Daitan looked back, expecting to see the youkai grab him, but was surprised to see him fly away. Looking down at his hands, he saw a blue light surrounding them.
`What the…?' Daitan thought, but was pulled out of his thoughts when he felt the ground leave his feet. He looked up and saw Sango riding Kirara with Hanna and Chansu on the back, unconscious of being scared to death.
“Hang on, we're going to see you father.” Daitan nodded, hanging onto Kirara for all he was worth. He wouldn't fit, so he had to sit on the edge, holding onto Sango's hand and Kirara's fur.
Daitan glanced back at the youkai, they were gone. Would they come back to get him?

Kyasha headed back to camp, she was exhausted. Feeling the need for a good meal, that even her human nose could smell was ready, and then bedtime.
“Kyasha, welcome back.” Miroku chided.
“Yup.” Kyasha sat down but was surprised when Inuyasha stood up and started sniffing. “What is it?” It reminded Kyasha of one of the many reasons why she wanted her youki back. Her senses were pretty much history by now.
“Daitan…Sango and the kids.” Inuyasha stated, Miroku and Kyasha stood up. “They're coming…and there's blood.” Kyasha gasped.
“Daitan?” Kyasha whispered. “What happened that would make them come to us?”
“I don't know, but it smells bad, I can smell Daitan's fear.” Kyasha winced. She never wanted her little brother to be sad or afraid. What could have happened that would make Sango come with the kids to them?
“Papa!” A cry was heard, looking up, they saw Daitan falling down into the camp. Inuyasha jumped up and caught his son in his hands. “Kyasha!” He immediately attacked Kyasha and they fell to the ground.
“Hi…Dai…what's up?” Kyasha mumbled under her brother.
“Oh I was attacked…Oh my god, Kyasha…you're human!” Daitan cried as he pulled on Kyasha's hair.
“Let go kid!” Kyasha screeched as her brother let go. “When did you get attacked?” Her question was cut short when Kirara and her friends landed on the ground by the camp.
“Sango, Hanna and Chansu! I'm so glad you're safe. We heard of your attack.” Miroku stated as he hugged his wife.
“What the hell attacked you?” Inuyasha grumbled, wanting answers.
“We were attacked by more moth youkai…it seemed like they were after Daitan, but I don't know why.” Sango whispered. “No one was hurt…I don't know how Daitan got away from the moth youkai that was on his tail, but when I found him, the youkai was dead.” Everyone looked at Daitan.
“Really Daitan? How'd you do it?” Kyasha asked.
“I don't know…I thought I was history….but when the youkai came for me, a blue light came and then the next thing I knew, Sango came for me and we headed for you guys.”
“It's his Miko. Remember Kagome's miko energy was only activated when she was in danger, or someone she loved was hurt or also in danger. It must have the same effect for Daitan.” Miroku stated. “He has more miko power in his blood then hanyou. Kyasha has more hanyou blood then miko.”
“Okay, but that doesn't explain why the moth youkai attacked, wanting Daitan.” Inuyasha grumbled. They were getting no where.
“I'll tell you…” Came a voice from the forest, everyone looked for the figure. It wasn't a youkai, seeing is how Inuyasha didn't pick up on its youki…but what was it? Or who was it?
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Inuyasha characters, anime of manga. Rumiko Takahashi does and I'm glad she had the imagination to create such amazing characters to play with.
