InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ For Love comes on the Wings Of Pain ❯ Chapter 1

Inudewaruika: I decided to give the wolves their own unique speech and so therefore when the wolves speak to the Wolf Demons, their voice will be in # hi!# like so. Further into the story I will add the canine tongue that is a common language in the Western Kingdom. And of course, Inu Yokai tongue.

Chapter 1:

Koga with one arm across his chest, raced along the raging river occasionally jumping the breaks in the ground and twisting around the trees that formed a natural barrier on the river’s granite walls. He turned to look behind him to make sure his pack was close by, he saw hide nor hair of the demons and their wolves, including his own. Rolling his eyes he plopped down on an outcropping of rock far above the raging rapids below. He pulled a white fur wrapped bundle from his shirt and removed a layer from the top. “Kagome,” he whispered as he ran a claw down the child’s sleeping face. “Our angel.” he watched her sleep for a few minutes until he could hear the teasing and cat calls from his pack.

“Hey Ginta!” a demon with a white mohawk growled.

“What Hakkaku?” a wolf demon with grayish color hair and a black stripe down the center of it asked as he rubbed his brown wolf.

“Your not going to fall asleep on Guard duty again, are you?” Hakkaku asked as he shoved a wolf that jumped up on him.

“I won’t if you won’t!” Ginta growled at him still angry about the trick they pulled on each other last time.

“Right.” Koga said as a abnormally large black and brown wolf trotted up to him and sat at his feet. He reached an arm down and rubbed the wolf’s black ear. Kyouto raised his black face and looked at his hunting partner and fellow pack leader. Kyouto was a handsome wolf, his face was black and ran down his back in a stripe. His ears and legs were black as well as the very tip of his tail. He looked like a fox wolf hybrid but his scent said otherwise. (Imagine a maned wolf. See bottom of page for link to see pictures. Just think of it‘s face as black and the tip of it‘s tail too. Kyouto’s also more buff like a wolf. And I know they are not native to Japan I just like the coloring. ^.~)

#Human?# Kyouto asked. His tail thumped on the ground.

“Yes. She was found laying near a dead man. I adopted her as my daughter and your new charge, Kyouto. I know how much you miss watching me when I was a pup. Although when she gets her own wolf then you will no longer need to watch her if you do not wish it so.” Koga told the wolf who gave a wolfish grin.

#Pup! Yes I shall.# Kyouto said as he lowered his head and stood to his paws. # I have truly missed the occasional romp through the forest. Plus I think the pup is waking.#

Koga chuckled as they continued to walk. The baby suddenly gurgled in happiness and Koga was glad to have found such a blessing.

~The Western Kingdom~

“Milord!” a short green toad said as he ran to keep up with the tall and noble 12 year old.

“What is it Jaken?” Sesshomaru asked, clearly annoyed by the way he looked at his retainer through the corner of his golden eyes.

“Your father wishes to see you in the main throne room. It seems that they may have found a lead on the child’s disappearance.” the ugly toad said as he bowed low to the ground nearly touching his beak like face to the stone.

Sesshomaru nodded and turned toward the Throne Room of The Silver Inu Lord. He walked past the various servants dressed in the blue and silver livery that was the House of Inu’s royal colors. They bowed deeply as he passed and he in turn gave them a solemn nod. Ahead of him Jaken scurried along until he reached the great oak doors that blocked the Throne room from other people, mainly intruders. Jaken grabbed a hold on one of the silver dogs that formed the handle and pushed it open, using all of his demonic strength to do so. Sesshomaru strode past without a single glance at the sweating toad.

“Father, you wish to see me?” Sesshomaru bowed slightly to his father. His glorious father sat in his throne of silver and sapphire stones. His long silver hair, pulled up in the customary war pony tail, reflected the sunlight behind him and formed a halo around his head, angelic seeming. His normal armor was gone and in it’s place a heavier more battle ready type sat. his father’s piercing gold gaze looked down on his son as he stood. Upon his shoulder was the royal pelt, a pelt formed from the fur of long dead Kings of the Western Kingdom. When his father died, part of his pelt would to be added as well as Sesshomaru’s. at his sash three swords were sheathed, the destroyer sword able to destroy a hundred demons in a single strike, the Tetsusaiga, it’s twin the heavenly sword capable of raising a hundred dead and bringing them back to life, Tensaiga and the relic sword passed down to the present King, the Ginkibaeiga or the Silver Fang of Glory, a sword whose power is a complete mystery to all but the rightful King.

“Sesshomaru, as you can see I am prepared for war. Yet it is not war I go to find but the missing daughter of our allies, the Northern Heiress. I am prepared to invade and slaughter those that withhold information. I am going to travel to the Southern Kingdoms and ask fellow King Onigumo, if he knows the scum that wears his brand.” The Inu-no-Tashio said as he pulled a sword from his sash, the Tensaiga.

“Father?” Sesshomaru asks as his father sets the blade in his son’s hand and closes his own fist over the boy’s hand.

“Sesshomaru I want you to act as regent until I return.” his father backed away and stood at the base of the great throne. “I shall only take a handful of my men, those that I do not trust to stay behind. I want you to watch over InuYasha. Make sure the pup grows up to be himself and not a royal brainwashed child. I want him to be wild. Let him do as he wishes as long as it doesn’t conflict with the Code.”

“Yes father.” Sesshomaru said as he held the sword to his chest and bowed. His father turned towards a door that had opened as a flea hopped in.

“Majesty it seems the child was hurt during the kidnapping. I have collected a vial of the blood. I am sure if we ever find a child of miko abilities I can test her blood to this and truly see if she’s the one.” Myoga said as he sat on the King’s shoulder.

“Good. Myoga I want you to take it to the archives and seal it there. Then I want you to watch over InuYasha. You are to be his retainer, much like Jaken is to Sesshomaru. I am leaving in a few hours to the south.” the king said. “Sesshomaru I trust you. If I die then the sword and the pelt will appear to you, for they are inchanted to do so. You will know if I die. You are excused.” his father waved a hand and Sesshomaru left, catching the last part of the conversation. “Myoga we have to find her. InuYasha and her birth was no accident. They were planned to be birthed within the same time period. They are promised.”
