Yuki: The Demon Sorcerer
Disclaimer: Although I really wish I did, I do not own Inu Yasha. I only own this story and OC characters, which I don't make any money off of.
It was a peaceful night in the feudal era. A full moon shone down on the beautiful landscape, caressing it with its unholy blue light. A river below sparkled, reflecting the moon and landscape around it on its still water as a demon sped past at lighting speed with a tornado at is fast moving heels.
`Where the hell is it?' the demon known as Koga thought as he ran past the sparkling waters into a dense forest with a mysterious blue fog seeping out, `I should have known not to trust those idiots,' he thought as he remembered his pack members words.
“Yuki's a powerful sorcerer from the eastern lands,” Ginta had told him earlier that day.
“Yeah, Yuki's real powerful, he can definitely help with your problem.”
“He's right Koga. All you need to do is go to the eastern lands and look for The Blue Mist Forest. When you come out of the forest you'll see three mountains. Go to the biggest mountain and look for a cave near the middle of it. Yuki lives there.”
“Yeah, you can't miss it.”
`Can't miss it!? I can't fucking find it!' he thought as he ran through the mist, `How the hell do I get out of this forest! It feels like I've been running around for hours!'
Finally after running for a few minutes Koga spotted the mountaintops above the trees.
`There it is. This Yuki better have what I need for making me go through all this or I'll kill him!' he growled to himself as he ran through the mists toward the mountains.
***************************************************************** ******
The entrance of the cave was a big and, wide and looked like a mouth with big fangs at the top. The walls were damp and shelf like with strange potion bottles and items on them.
The cave was all but dark except for a lone campfire in the middle of it. Glancing past the crackling fire Koga noticed an old demon sitting cross-legged with his head bent down with a mass of various furs behind it that was probably his bed.
“Are you Yuki… the demon sorcerer?” Koga asked the older demon as he gave him a good look over.
The demon's face was covered with wrinkles with a scratch along his left eye, which were bloody red. His hair was snow white and went all the way down his back. His hands were also wrinkled with long claws.
The old demon wore a long black robe with long sleeves that were crossed over his chest that heaved up and down as the old demon gasped for air.
At Koga's question one of the demon's elf ears twitched as he gave a little smirk as his face began to change.
Looking down at the demon, Koga gasped as the demon's once wrinkled hands and face began to become smooth and soft and his once snow white hair and blood red eyes become jet black and sky blue, like his own.
“Yes, I am Yuki. What do you want young wolf?” the demon answered as he looked up at the shocked face of the wolf-demon tribe leader and gave a big grin, revealing a mouth full of fangs Koga could've swore were not there before.
“How-How did you do that?” Koga squeaked.
“I am a sorcerer. I can change my age, shape, appearance and even gender at will. I am surprised that you are so shocked,” the demon responded.
“How do I know if that is your true form?” Koga asked with a serious look on his face.
“Does it really matter? My `appearance' will have nothing to do with how I help you, if I can, or my magic.”
“I guess so,” Koga half-heartedly agreed, strolling over to sit down.
“Now, how can I help you?” Yuki asked.
“Well… you see I *ahem* have a problem with my woman,” Koga stated as he sat on the furs, staring unhappily down at his lap.
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. You know many young wolves have that problem, but I'm afraid I can't help you with that. Again, I'm sorry," Yuki responded sadly, shaking his head.
"Huh? What!? No...no, no. Not that kind of problem you old fool!" Koga shouted, "My problem is an interfering half-breed named Inu Yasha!"
'Sheesh, who does he think I am!? Like I would ever have that problem! Old fool!' he thought as he scowled at Yuki, strongly considering killing him for even thinking such a thing.
"Oh, I see," chuckled Yuki as he looked over the fire at the scowling wolf.
"Look, can you help me or not!? Because if you can't..." Koga threatened, getting up and taking a few steps towards Yuki and cracking his knuckles to prove his point.
"Oh calm down young friend," chuckled Yuki, waving a clawed hand at Koga, "Now, tell me about this...Inu Yasha and I'll see if I can help."
"Alright old man but if you can't I'll have your head!" Koga growled as he sat back down with a huff.
"I'll be sure to remember that," Yuki chuckled nervously, “Now, tell me about your woman and this *ahem* problem."
"*sigh*... her names Kagome…" Koga started, a dreamy look on his face “…she has the most amazing scent. She's strong ,brave ,loving, and she can sense, see and purify shikon shards."
"Shikon Shards!?" Yuki exclaimed alarmed, "Don't tell me she's human...and a priestess no less!?"
"And if she is!?" Koga growled.
"Oh...um...nothing, nothing at all," Yuki flustered, putting up his hands in defense, "But, she sounds nice. What's your problem with this Inu Yasha?"
"My problem is that he's trying to claim my mate!" Koga shouted as he slammed his fist into the ground."
"Oh, I see."
"So, I came to you to see if..."
"...to see if I had something to help you destroy him with?"
"Yes...yes!"
"Sorry, but my spells cannot destroy any demon," Yuki said calmly.
"But..."
"But?"
"…I could give you something better," Yuki exclaimed with a fangy grin.
"Really, what is it!?" Koga asked, his blues eyes big and wide in curiosity as his tail wagged in anticipation.
"This," Yuki responded, pulling a shining object out of his robe and holding it up for Koga to see.
"What is that thing?" Koga asked, using his arm to block the mysterious glow.
