InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Forbidden ❯ Chapter 1 ( Chapter 1 )

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha and Aladdin.

I don't really use Aladdin but I don't want people to think that I thought of all of this by myself. The story will have a very interesting twist that you are guaranteed to love.

 

Author's Note: The point of view (P.O.V.) will change in the story, most times without warning. However they will not change in the middle of a paragraph, so be on the look out of the pronouns in the paragraphs.

For years I have lived on the streets of Edo with nothing to my name except a few coins and the clothes on my back. I was orphaned at a young age without ever knowing my father while my mother died while I was seven. I wasn't able to give her a nice burial but she was buried under her favorite sakura tree. I wish that I could give her more but what was a seven year old girl to do? I had no where to go because the landlord took our house and put me on the street without a care for me. I cried for days before my food ran out and I began to starve. The hunger made me weak; sometimes I could barely move my little muscles but then I learned to steal to live. My new home is in an abandoned building that the city has neglected to tear down. I think that the people know that I live here and feel some pity for me. I have no need for there pity.

I am alone in this world with the exception of Shippo; a little fox with a black coat and green eyes (A/N: Shippo can't talk in this story) that I found injured in the forest at eight. I nursed back to health with the medicine that I “borrowed” from the neighbors and local doctors. The determination that I felt to keep him alive was only thing that kept me going. I knew that I would have to get better at stealing so that he may live. After a few months, Shippo was well enough to be moved and I put him in my home.

Edo is beautiful village that is isolated from the rest of the world. The palace, three floors high with six tall towers, is in the middle of Edo surrounded by a grand wall The closest village is a month's walk away and I'll never make that without food which I need more money to buy. I'm eighteen years old and I haven't done anything to improve my life.

“THIEF, COME BACK HERE!” yells a portly peddler in the marketplace.

“Now, why would I do that?” I keep running until I reach an alleyway which the walls are easy to scale. Then I disappear.

It's been like that for a while; steal some bread and fruit then disappear. I was caught often while growing up and paid the prices but that is in the past. Now I am an expert and I'll never get caught.

Back at our home, the abandoned building with a large view of the palace with worn curtains from the trash, I pet Shippo's coat while thinking a world that we won't have to steal to survive. I'll die before I let Shippo die; he has saved me a few times and vise versa. He is my best friend and I'll never leave him. He needs to eat every day unlike me so some days I do starve but I will never regret giving my food to him.

“One day Shippo, we'll live like royalty and we'll never starve again. This I promise you; no matter what we will make it.”

The cold wind continues to blow through the worn curtains as the young woman covers the body of the black fox. Her skin shivers and her lips turn blue until the wind finally dies down but the night gradually becomes colder. Every day there is a chance that she might not awake but she holds on for Shippo.

I grow tired of these servants and concubines that have become old. I really want out of these prison walls. Everything is mundane in this damn place; wake up, eat, argue with father, spar with my half brother, and do patrol. In fact father should be yelling at me in 3…2…1…

“Sesshoumaru, why haven't you found a bride?” yells the king with high, long white ponytail that comes to his waist. His bangs fall over his eyes; his golden eyes hold years of wisdom and finality. He is Lord Inutaisho and has been the ruler of Edo for the past 35 years and believes that it is time for his heir to reign when he has gotten himself a lady or princess.

“I am waiting for woman that doesn't bend to my every will, father,” replies the smooth, deep voice of the eldest son.

“You're mother, Kami bless her soul, would be turning over in her grave, if she heard you. You have been using the same excuse for the past decade and it is getting old. If you haven't chosen a bride within the next fortnight, I will either choose for you or will lose your title as heir to Edo. Have I made myself clear?”

“Crystal, sir,” he responds with a low bow and excuses himself from the dining hall. The young heir continues to walk through the immaculate palace with red tones and portraits as far as the eyes can see.

Everyday is the same and nothing will ever change until I take the throne and then a different routine will start. I suppose that I will patrol the lands for a while and then go back to the library.

The gardens are a wondrous beauty that always seems to be missing something. I wonder what it could be; every single flower is perfect and every bird sings a perfect tune, maybe too perfect. Some chaos would be nice but asking for that would be too much.

“Milord,” calls a high, squeaky voice that annoys me to death. Stupid toad man, “it is time to patrol.”

“I am aware of this, Jaken. Leave me be and do something that doesn't involve me.”

“Hai, milord,” and the short, bald, bow-legged man, runs out of sight and back into the palace. Some day I will kick him over the palace walls and let the subjects deal with him.

*Image of Jaken screaming, “What has your vessel down to deserve such treatment!” All the while he is soaring over the palace walls before a long THUMP is heard throughout the land. “Lord Sesshoumaru, why?!” Tears are pouring for his eyes that are anime like.*

The sun shines brightly on Sesshoumaru's silver hair as he leaves the castle grounds with a smirk.

I don't really expect a review the very first chapter though it would be nice.
