I don't own Squat
Stirrings of truth, the beginning of denial…
Strange, although he never got to fight that man in the mirror, which the child demon was holding, Taro felt that something was wrong.
Very wrong…
Something about that being chilled him to the bone. The power he felt emanating from the child was weak, but it was the man in the mirror, that made him pause. Never in his experience has he ran into someone who could deflect his power like that.
Especially when he was not actually there…
It reminded him much of that sword, that the hanyou used in connection to her arrows. Reflexively touching the spot that twitches every so often with energy, Taro pauses in mid journey as he heads back to find his enemy.
They to had deflected his power, which was strange. Before, back in his own time, they couldn't or should he say wouldn't deflect it at all. They had just kept dodging his energy blasts with uncanny speed. All the while proclaiming their nonsense..
That he was their son…
*twitch*
What was that?
What just happened?
What did he just feel?
What did he just feel at the mere thought of him being their son?
*twitch*
Shaking his head firmly and with an almost desperate feel, he closes his amber eyes and opens them, his mind steady and clear. His thoughts focused on the fact that whatever it was, it felt strange and yet at the same time familiar to him.
It felt like hope…and that's when his heart hardened once more as he remembered his Master's words. That they killed his family….
His momma…papa…everyone that loved him gone…
Still at the thought that he was their son, that he was somebody`s son…
*twitch*
Then why does that feeling feel like hope? They weren't his parent's right? His master wouldn't have lied to him all these years, his master cares about him!
Just what is happening to him? Never before has he forsaken his master, but now he feels something akin to that awakening….
It is doubt…and for the first time in his life, he feels the questions in his head that have lain dormant through each kill.
Demanding an answer…

Back in the future…
Kanaye twitches with each day that passes, with Taro being gone. If the youth had followed his plan he should have already been back by now.
But already, he doesn't know how or he doesn't know why, but he feels things changing around him. To the north, he swears he remembers the land of the wolf demons, encompassing only the mountains and it surrounding grasslands, for one of his allies held the rest.
Then why, when he wished to send a message to this person, did his most trusted commander look at him with a strange expression.
…Who sir?….
…You know Takeuchi, the demon who shares ruling in the North with the Wolves?…
…My Lord…do you not remember? Takeuchi has been dead this many years. He was killed trying to ambush someone…
Killed trying to ambush someone? That was when the memories assailed him and that was when he began to realize that he made a very big and very large mistake. Even though he clearly remembers the demon helping him in many quests and many missions to gain his seat upon the western lands.
Now he also remembers the rumors and then the confirmation of his death alongside two of his most trusted lieutenants. They couldn't confirm via the bodies, they confirmed something else. There was the scent of power…pure power and rage all around…
And now that he thinks about it…he remembered that scent for he had thought Sesshomaru had done it at that time….
Even though in his mind he now knows Sesshomaru hadn't done it. He had blamed the great lord. The power scent was interlaced with that the scent of the moon…
He should have never sent Taro in the past, to take out his chief enemies that were to powerful right now. You see Takeuchi…the one he had sent for? Was one of the demons that helped him kill Sesshomaru…
And somehow his assassin…and not the great lord was the one who had done it.
History was changing…all ready in his mind, he can feel memories moving over to make room for the new ones…
And he does not like it one bit…
“If you want things done right, you have to do it yourself….” Kanaye replied to no one in particular. Summoning his men he goes forth as if in a mission…
“My Lord?”
“Commander, we go to see the demoness Naoko in the Southern lands…”
“The seer, my Lord?”
“Yes, she and I go way back….” He murmurs. His memory going back to not so long ago, when he had visited the prophetess, who was once his lover. Because of the fact that he was losing interest in her, he had gone to the woman one last time to say goodbye and then leave…but she had stopped him with a strong grip on his arm.
He knew the look…he knew she was seeing something…for her eyes glazed over and her grip grew infinitely stronger.
That's when she had begun to spout this nonsense that he had ignored for he believed that he had stopped it with the death of Sesshomaru and the kidnapping of Inuyasha`s son…
But now he could feel the memories stirring…and the fear returning
There will be a time when
Three of the moon will walk this land and it will know turmoil
One a powerful Lord
Cold and Calculating, but honest and fair
His power is equal to none but one…
Another his rival
Envious and destructive, conniving and deceitful
Desires what is not his, loathing of the weak and praising of the strong
The third but a child
Innocence and light he is the salvation to many…
And an abomination to a few
To love him is to die for him
To hate him is to care for him
To save him is to punish him
For he is the True Lord of not just one tribe
But all…
