Chapter 11~Trying to Forget!
~~~It had been a whole week since Inuyasha had left the village and a hurting Kagome behind. As he raced through the forest, him mind could not erase the look that Kagome has worn the last time he had seen her. She had been hurt, and angry. It bothered him alot and try as he might he couldnt erase the image from his mind. He had sworn he would be back for her someday, he he would. But of course he couldnt exactly tell her that now could he? For all he knew he might be killed before he reached his brother or killed in the battle that still raged between Ekki and his brothers forces. He hadnt wanted to give Kagome false hope. When she had asked him if he loved her, he should of said yes, anything to sooth her, to keep that pain from her face, that hurt, the hatred. But Inu was not one to lie. And Kagome had deserved more than a lie. He cared for her, he truelly did. The time he had spent with her healing, having her take care of him, had been really great. But love? What exactly was love? Oh he knew his mother had loved his father and vice versa, but from a personal point of veiw? He hadnt really experienced the emotion himself. Yes he had loved his father, his mother and he loved his brother. But that was diffrent from what one felt for someone not blood related.
~~~Most of his life he had pretty much learned to live with the snide remarks and looks he got from the full demons that lived and served his family. No they didnt do it in front of his father, mother or brother for fear of thier wrath, and no they hadnt meant to do it in front of him either, but Inuyasha had seen it and felt it, heard the whispers when they hadnt thought he was around. He was a half breed. And no amount of royal blood could erase that prejiduce from the ways others saw him. So he didnt expect much from anyone, not even the demoness' he often took to bed. Oh he wasnt bad to look at he knew this, and they knew that regardless of his inpure blood, he was still royalty and that was a big turn on for alot of females. But did he care for them? No. Did they care for him? No. As for love, the emotion was so foreign to him, he wouldnt be able to decribe it if his life depended on it. Yet still he was plagued by Kagome's face, her tears, her hurt. Even after a whole week the images plagued him and he felt this knot in his chest he couldnt quit describe, but he knew it was annoying and it ached in an odd sort of way.
~~~He wondered what she was doing right now. If she was thinking of him as he was thinking of her, and as soon at that thought came to his mind he scowled and growled, shaking his head to rid himself of such ridiculous thoughts. He didnt have time for this damn it. Most of his demon powers had come back, his hearing, sight, smell, speed, claws, strength, the only thing that had yet to return was his silver hair and dog ears. The true mark of his demon heritage, his silver hair marking him that of his Inuyouki clan, of his father, his dog ears, his mark of being a half breed. He would of once said he could of lived without the ears, but after being without them for so long, he missed them. They were apart of who he was, for good or bad, it was him and he wanted to be his normal self again.
~~~He would reach the borders of his brothers lands soon, in a few days, but if his hair and ears didnt come back soon, then he might be in some trouble. Not only was he open to attacks from Ekkis forces but if he didnt revert to normal he was open to attacks from his brothers forces as well. None of his brothers men or anyone for that matter knew what Inuyasha looked like as a mortal. On the nights he turned human, he had hid away, in fact he hid away lots of times, even when he didnt change, and that was to not alert anyone to his true time of change. His father had said it was to keep him safe from enemies, and even in ones home, an enemy could strike. What his father really meant by that Inu came to realize, was that in human form he was weak, and son of the Great Dog Demon or not, there was those in thier own kingdom that might do him harm. Even after his parents had passed, Sesshoumaru was the only one who knew of Inu's true human form and when the time came. He protected that secret closely and vowed he would kill anyone that harmed his brother on his human night. So here he was, still looking mortal for the most part and vunerable to his brothers own forces because they didnt know who the hell he was and his brother hadnt told anyone about his secret mission. He had to get to his brother as soon as possible.
***************************************************************** ******************************
~~~He hid in a hallow of a tree and surrounded himself with leaves and branches. He clutched his scythe tightly in his hand and tried to slow his breathing down. His right leg and left arm burned fiercly with pain, but the pain in his heart was greater. He bit his lip and tried to fight back the tears, to push back the images of his village and loved ones being murdered and slaughtered. It had happened eight months ago, yet the memories were still vivid and the pain never dulled. His only saving grace, was that his sister had been spared. When Ekki's men had come to thier village and demanded they fight in his war, his father, the lord of his village had refused. His father said he would not be drawn into Ekki's stupid war, it was not his peoples battle and they would not fight it for him. Ekki had not been happy, he had ordered his men, both human and demon to kill anyone who would not bow down to him and follow his orders. The village had fought, they had killed many, but there was just too many of them. Soon Ekki's forces had overpowered thier strongest warriors and the others, killing everyone, even women and children, old ones who could no longer fight. He had spared no one and he had been forced to watch as his father ordered his daughter to take him from the village and live, to be strong and for them both to live, even as he fell on his face with arrows and claw marks scoring his back. He had watched blood dribble from his fathers mouth, his eyes open wide, even as he took his last breath and died.
~~~Kohaku took a deep shuddering breath and fought back the tears as his chest ached, and the pain in his injured arm and leg throbbed painfully. His older sister Sango had taken him from the village that night, as it burned down, everyone dead and gone, he and Sango the only ones of his village still alive. The last of the Demon exterminators. Thier freedom hadnt lasted long. He and Sango were soon found and even though Sango had tried her best to fight them off, there was just to many and Kohaku had not been much help. Yes he was trained and he could fight, but he had been injured in the attack and his wrist had been broken, so they had been over powered. Kohaku was sure that he and his sister were going to die and join the others of the village soon. But Sango had surrendered. She had promised to do as Ekki asked and fight for him. Kohaku had been in shock. When he had asked her Why she had done that, she smiled sadly at him and said that she would do what ever it took to make sure that he was alive and well, that they were always together.
"Your my one and only little brother Kohaku...we are all we have left...we are the last of our kind...we need to survive..to live...if for nothing else...to get our vengence upon Ekki for what he did to our village and our family." Sango had told him and he had understood. She would fight for him, and he would to, but they would not submit, they would not go blindly into this. When the oppurtunity arose they would strike, they would kill Ekki and take vengence for thier village and commrades.
"How did it all go wrong Sango?? Where did we go wrong? It wasnt supposed to be like this..." Kohaku whispered to himself as he let a few tears fall down his dirty face. They had attacked. They had found an opening, Ekki truested Sango. Or so they had thought. But Ekki didnt trust anyone, and when they had tried to kill him his guards had surrounded them. It had taken all they had to fight thier way out of the castle. He had seen Sango get injured and he had been cut by someones katana in the leg and arm as well. Sango had told him to run. He hadnt wanted to leave her, but she had insisted and he had did what he was told. He had ran, and ran and ran and ran till he couldnt run anymore. Then he collapsed and cried till he had fallen asleep in a burrow of leaves.
~~~That had been two weeks ago, he had tended to his wounds the best he could, and they were still bad but not oozing blood anymore. Kohaku didnt know what to do. He was weak, hurt and hungry. He didnt even know if Sango was still alive or not. He had failed her, he had failed his father, his village. Why couldnt he have been more like his father or the others? A warrior? A top line demon exterminator? He knew he was ok, but even Sango was one of the best in thier village. How was he supposed to fight Ekki on his own if Sango hadnt been able to? What would he do now? He had to heal, he had to get better and soon, because wether he was a great warrior or not he vowed to keep his sisters dream alive, and his. He would kill Ekki. He would avenge his village and his family. One way or another, he would see that bastard die.
A/N~yes I know its shorrrrrrt....but I am trying, and yes its no doubt riddles with spelling and grammer mistakes as well as punctuation, but sadly Ive never been good with that at all. Ok so how did you like this chapter? yes I am bringing in Kohaku, no there is no Kilala or Shippo and no Rin, sorry guys, but I sort of liked the idea of Sango and Kohaku being in this, hope I pull off what my mind wants this story to go..lol..anyhow hopefully I will have another update up soon k??? thanks again for all your support and reviews, you guys are the best, much huggles and smiles Mija...:-)
