InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Dark Wolf ❯ First Contact ( Prologue )

Dark Wolf:

Pairings: KougaXInu Yasha, SeshomaruXOC

Disclaimer: Not mine. Never mine; if they were I'd have Kouga and Inu Yasha making out in every episode. But since they aren't mine I guess I'll have to settle with this story. However Kurt and my female original character are mine, no taking them without asking first.

Prologue:

 

The night was cold and dark like the blackness of an abyss. Nothing stirred in this remote region, nothing except one lone wolf. The wolf kept its nose to the ground as if searching for something. Finally stilling, the wolf seemed to shimmer and contort then where the wolf once was there now stood a lone man who looked to be around the age of twenty. Long black hair cascaded down his back tied back by a string at the nape of his neck, teased by the wind that had picked up suddenly. His sea blue eyes coming to rest on the ground to his left; and without warning he slammed his fist into the ground, aiming for what lay buried beneath. Once again the wind picked up, his hair whipping his face as he tried to avoid the geyser of earth that shot up; as the creature, no abomination, leapt forward to attack slashing Kouga deeply on his upper right arm.

 

“So you finally show yourself Kurt. You've given me quite a lot of trouble. This time I will see that justice is served.” The young man spoke calmly to the other who looked as if he could have been his twin while completely ignoring the pain of his wound.

 

“So we've come to this have we little brother.” Kurt smirked as he sneered the words `little brother' like an insult. “I'm your older brother Kouga; you could never kill me.” Kurt sneered just before screamed in agony.

 

“My brother is dead!” Kouga stated without emotion “He died the moment he gave up his soul and turned vampire.” As he spoke these words he removed his hand from the vampire's chest still clutching the black withered heart. Tossing the heart aside Kouga gathered the energy particles in the atmosphere; generating a ball of fire before willing it at the black organ completely incinerating it; ensuing that the monster that was once his brother could never rise again before he turned the fire on the vampire's body as well until not a trace of the creature remained.

 

As Kouga cleansed his hands of the poisonous blood only one thought played through his mind: `It's over. I'm free to seek eternal rest.' As Kouga thought this he remembered the promise that he had made to his brother long ago when they were still both fledglings.

 

~Flashback~

 

In a small clearing, nestled deep in the Carpathian Mountains, two young men sat deep in discussion. “Kouga.” One of the young men addressed. Kouga turned to his identical twin brother and asked.

“What is it Kurt? Is something wrong?”

 

“No, nothing's wrong. I just wanted to ask you a favor is all.” Kurt replied though a bit hesitant.

 

“Name it. You know I'd do anything for you Kurt. You're my twin for goodness sake.” Kouga answered with a grin while placing his hand atop his brothers.

 

“Alright then; I want you to promise me something. Promise me that if I ever turn on, you and you alone will be the one to hunt me. That you'll allow no other to carry out the task, and I'll do for you the same honor.” Kurt spoke in a rush.

 

“What do you mean Kurt? That you want me to hunt you if you turn? You'll never turn; you're far too powerful for that.” Kouga stated with conviction. Kurt looked his twin in the eye as he repeated.

 

“Promise me Kouga.”

 

Kouga sighed and spoke “All right Kurt, I promise. I promise.”

~End Flashback~

 

“You knew then didn't you? You knew you would turn yet saved me the pain of knowing. It's done my brother. I did as you asked of me; and now I follow where you lead.” Kouga stated broken heartedly to the night sky.

 

`What do you mean?' A concerned voice asked in Kouga's mind. Kouga snapped to attention scanning the area for any other presence. He found none.

 

`Who are you?' Kouga asked the voice in his head. The voice laughed in amusement.

 

`No one of any importance. Just a friend who doesn't want you to do anything that you'll regret.' The voice replied with compassion.

 

`How do you know I'll do something I'll regret?' Kouga snorted back. `Keh. You idiot I can sense your resolve to hurt yourself; and on top of that I can feel your pain for god knows what reason.' The voice bit back with annoyance.

 

Pain? The voice was right he did hurt very deeply infact; and now that Kouga thought about it the world was ablaze with color. He hadn't seen in color or felt emotion for a thousand years; since he was a mere fledgling of two hundred years. Only one thought danced through Kouga's mind. <Lifemate.> Only his true lifemate could bring emotion and color back into his desolate gray scaled existence; and now that he had found her mentally, and he was not going to stop searching until he found her physically. `Where are you?' Kouga asked his newly discovered other half.

 

`Does it really matter? I mean it's not like we're ever going to meet.' The voice answered still annoyed.

 

`Yes it does matter. As I intend to make sure we do meet and very soon infact. Now answer your lifemate woman.' Kouga spoke mentally with the authority that was his by birth rite, adding a gentle push with his voice to force compliance.

 

`Vancouver.' The voice bit back with a hint of resentment. `Wait a gosh darn minute. Lifemate? Woman? What the hell!' The voice raged and with that the link was abruptly severed. Kouga smirked he had finally found his lifemate. He knew where she was and all that there was left to do was claim her and make her irrevocably his. Kouga then took the form of a snowy owl and took off to tell his family the good news before leaving to find his lifemate.

 

As he took off into the night one stubborn little thought entered his mind, that his lifemate had sounded surprisingly quite masculine. Kouga ruthlessly pushed that thought out of his head and chalked it up to his imagination before once again focusing on his flight home.

~In Vancouver~

 

In a small three room house a young man lay fuming in his room. “How dare that egotistical jackass call me a woman! He's never even seen me before in his life! Keh! See if I try to help him again!” The boy bit out between clenched teeth. “And what in the name of all the hells is a lifemate!?!” He yelled out just before his door was pounded upon. “What!” He barked out as his door was opened.

 

“No need to bite my head off little brother.” The older man at the door replied.

 

“Keh. What the hell is it Sesshoumaru? It had better be good.” The younger boy growled out

 

“Keep up that attitude Inu Yasha and I won't tell you what I saw in my vision.” Sesshoumaru answered icily while glaring at his younger sibling.

 

“Gomen Sess. I guess I'm just still upset is all. You see, I just finished talking to a real prick. He called me a woman for Christ's sake!” Inu Yasha amended.

 

“Well, what can I say Inu Yasha; with that waist length hair of yours you do kinda look like one.” Sesshoumaru snickered while Inu Yasha glared daggers at him before replying

 

“Yours is just as long as mine Sess if not longer, so stuff it.” With that said the two brothers just sat there in silence for a few minutes until Inu Yasha broke the ice. “So you came to tell about your vision. Who was it about this time?” The two brothers shared a rare psychic gift called Tempiapathy. While Inu Yasha could only see into a person's past his older brother Sesshoumaru could see not only what was happening to people in the present, but he could see into the future as well.

 

“You. This vision is about you little brother.”

 

~Vision~

In a large well lit room in front of a roaring fire a young pregnant woman sat mesmerized by the dancing flames. The woman groaned as her baby shifted. “They'll be home soon, my little one.” The young woman, who was not a woman at all but astonishingly enough a young man, crooned to his unborn infant. Just then three more figures joined the young man in the room. “So your finally home itooshi (beloved), I've missed you.” The young man said wistfully. One of the figures nodded, their eyes never leaving the others comely face.

~End Vision~

 

“Pregnant!?!“ Inu Yasha roared stupefied. “I'm a fucking guy! How can I get fucking pregnant!?! If this is your idea of a joke, Sesshoumaru, it's not funny!” Inu Yasha growled out as he glared at the older man.

 

“No joke. I just tell it as I see it.” Sesshoumaru replied calmly while returning his brothers glare.
