InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Back To The Past ❯ Finding Fluffy ( Chapter 1 )
[ P - Pre-Teen ]
Chapter One: Finding Fluffy
“Talking”
‘Thinking’
A little kitsune kit was playing with her friends, Koga and Sesshomaru. She was a special kind of fox, and was one of the last of her kind - a dark kitsune. Her tail was black tipped with red, her hair was short and black, and her eyes were a dark blue/grey. She was next in line to be the Lady of the Southern Lands, and she was about seven or eight in demon years. She was looking for Jaken so she could torture him for what he had done, when the ground suddenly split open underneath her. She screamed and held onto the edge for dear life. Sesshomaru and Koga ran out of the bushes when they heard her scream. Sesshomaru was a lot more worried about her than Koga was, because he had a small crush on the young kitsune; and after Jaken said what he did, he knew that she liked him, too.
Right as they reached the side of the chasm, her hands slipped and she screamed, but Sesshomaru grabbed her hands just in time. She looked up and yelled “Don’t let go!” Her hands then started slipping, and she and Sesshomaru yelled out each other’s names. Her hands slipped out of his, and all Sesshomaru could do was sit there and listen to her echoing scream.

My POV
It was my thirteenth birthday, and I was having a party based on Feudal Era Japan from my favorite anime TV show in the park. Me and my two best friends were laughing and walking back to the party since it was time for cake (YAY!! SUGAR!!! : : bounces up and down really fast like an out of control blender : : . . . . Stop looking at me like that, I like sugar ok. I’m not crazy . . . . Oh wait, yeah I am). We had wanted to get away from all the people, so we had gone into the forest. I was dressed up as a kitsune youkai; I had dyed my short brown hair black, I had put on contacts that had changed my eyes to a darker blue/grey color. I was also wearing a black tail tipped with red (it looks more like a wolf’s tail than Sesshy’s Fluffy), and I had pointed ears. One of my best friends, Claudia, who we call Maria, was dressed as an ookami youkai; she had a black wolf tail, she had pointed ears, and she had dyed her dark brown hair so that it was now pitch black tipped with red. My other best friend, Ashley, who we call Mizuki, was dressed up as an inu youkai; she had dyed her dirty blonde hair silver, and she also had pointed ears. I was wearing a white kimono with a purple crescent moon on the back^^, Maria was wearing a black and red kimono, and Ashley was just wearing a red kimono.
Suddenly, the ground started shaking. “What the hell-!” I was cut off when the ground suddenly split open under my feet. I started falling, and Maria and Mizuki who were on either side of the chasm grabbed my hands just in time. “Don’t let go!” I yelled frantically. They were about to say something, but the ground crumbled beneath them causing us all to fall into the rip in the Earth and scream.
When I opened my eyes I noticed that I was in a clearing, and that everything was anime! “Cool!” I said excitedly. It didn’t take long for me to notice that my fake ears, tail, fangs, claws, and my hair and eye color were now real. I began to wonder what had happened to Maria and Mizuki since they were nowhere to be found. I decided that staying in one place would not be a very good idea, so I stood up and started walking in a random direction.
After a few days I came to a stream. I knelt beside it and looked into the water. I had to steady myself when I suddenly had many flashbacks of my past. After a couple of minutes I got over the shock, and started singing a song I thought went with one of the things that had happened in my life really well.
Na na
Na na na na na
I miss you
Miss you so bad
I don’t forget you
Oh it’s so sad
I hope you can hear me
I remember it clearly
The day you slipped away
Was the day I found
It won’t be the same
Oh
Na na
Na na na na na
I didn’t get around to kiss you
Goodbye on the hand
I wish that I could see you again
I know that I can’t
Oh
I hope you can hear me
‘Cuz I remember it clearly
The day you slipped away
Was the day I found
It won’t be the same
Oh
I’ve had my wake up
Won’t you wake up
I keep asking why
I can’t take it
It wasn’t fake it happened
You passed by
Now you’re gone
Now you’re gone
There you go
There you go
Somewhere I can’t bring you back
Now you’re gone
Now you’re gone
There you go
There you go
Somewhere you’re not coming back
The day you slipped away
Was the day I found
It won’t be the same
The day you slipped away
Was the day that I found
It won’t be the same
Na na
Na na na na na
I miss you
I stood up, and I could sense that someone was watching me from the trees. He seemed familiar. I then heard someone come out into the open. “Helena?” (my name is Krystina but everyone calls me Helena) I whipped my head around and look at my childhood friend in surprise. “Seshou?” I whispered quietly. He nodded slightly still kind of in shock. He walked over to me and asked, “Where have you been?” “I was sent into the future.” I answered. “ I don’t know why though. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to get my lands back.” I turned around and was about to walk south, when he stopped me by saying, “Wait.” I turned around and asked, “What?” “Your father, he’s . . . .” his voice trailed off, and I figured out what he meant. Tears swiftly came to my eyes, and my legs couldn’t support my weight any longer. Sesshomaru caught me before I fell, and I started crying into his chest.
After a few minutes, I slowly stopped crying and brushed away the last remaining tears. I stood with a determined look on my face and thought, ‘I have to take my rightful place as Lady of the Southern Lands like Otou-san always wanted.’ I started south and Sesshomaru followed me for some reason. He said it was because I was weak in this state of distress, but I think he just wanted to make sure I was ok. It was actually kind of weird that he showed no emotion, since he used to act really hyper when he was a kid. (Just like I always am! Hyper, Hyper, Hyper, Hyper, Hyper . . .)
When I got to my castle, I immediately knew something was wrong. The scent of my brother’s blood was thick in the air. I quickly sped off to my brother going so fast, I was only a blur. When I stepped into the dojo, I was frozen in shock. There was blood everywhere, and the demon my brother had been fighting was dead, but my brother was dying too. I was quickly kneeling by his side. “Taimaru? Taimaru!” I said frantically. He slowly opened his eyes. “Sissy?” he asked weakly. I nodded saying, “Just hold on, Sesshomaru is coming. He can heal you with Tensaiga.” “Sissy, I-I can’t . . .” His voice trailed off, and he stopped moving.
I stood up slowly while crying, leaning against the wall for support. Sesshomaru soon came into the dojo, looked around with a tiny bit of shock in his eyes, and walked over to me. It was then that I fell forward. He caught me, and I started crying into his chest once again. “Why is everyone I love dying?” I said, still crying. “Will you be next?” I didn’t care that I had accidentally let that slip, and I didn’t care what Sesshomaru was thinking at that point. The only thing that mattered, was that I had no family left, that everyone was dead. Everyone except . . . . There was a small hope that I could find my step-sister who had disappeared before I had. She was all I had left. I had to find her.
I went to stand beside my brother’s body. Sesshomaru turned to leave but I said, “Wait.” He turned around. “Let me travel with you. There’s nothing left for me here except for bad memories.” I saw him nod slightly. A shadow of a smile crossed my lips, and as he turned around I said softly, “Arigato Seshou.”
When we got to where Rin and Jakken were waiting, the real action started. “You never told me he was still around.” I said, glaring at Jakken as he tried to hide. “I never did get you back for what you did.” ‘I still can’t believe he told Seshou that I had a crush on him; I still do, but I doubt he likes me that way anymore. Oh well, enough with past, time for payback.’ I then started advancing on Jakken as he tried to run away.
