InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Hunted Prey ❯ Finding You! ( Chapter 1 )

Chapter 1: Finding You!

 

Calm as ever she buttoned up her black cargo pants. Going through the routine like it was something she did everyday, she placed many kunai into her leather guarded back pocket.

 

The black belt had many slits in it ideal for placing small throwing daggers. She tied her katana's sheath to her belt loop and turned so that the silver marking on the hilt sent patches of moonlight bouncing off the walls.

 

Abandoning the rest of the weapons littered on her bed, she yanked a black tank top from her dresser draw and pulled it over her head. She reached out on her dresser and pulled on a pair of matching fingerless gloves.

 

Walking quickly over to the closet she pulled out a pair of running sneakers and slipped them on her feet. She also took out a quiver of arrows and a bow and adjusted them so they rested on her right shoulder.

 

She walked back over to her dresser and put some black and silver eye shadow on her eyes and did her hair up in a high ponytail. Last but not least was to put on her leather neck choker, which had a bright blue moon, centred on it.

 

Someone was going to die tonight.

 

Kagome was going out hunting.

 

*~*~*

Kagome was the last one of them to make it to the corner, where they always meet before a hunt.

 

Brushing a few lone ebony hairs back behind her ear, Kagome sped up a little to reach her friends. Only slightly out of breathe Kagome reached her friends within less than half a minute.

 

"You're late again Kagome" Kikyou said in a haughty voice while flipping her hair over shoulder. "Maybe you should just go back home."

 

"Go shove you head in a hole" Sango retorted rolling her eyes. "Bitch" she mumbled under her breath.

 

"Gomen ne, you guys I had no clue it would take me this long to get ready." Kagome smiled at the group. "I had to convince my mother to let me out. It's a school night you know."

 

The group that assembled there every night was small but effective. There was Kouga, the only male wolf youkai in the group. Like all the time his lengthy jet-black hair was secured in a ponytail. His black pants dragged on the floor and his white muscle shirt revealed a taut stomach and chest. His only weapon was a staff with a nasty looking blade.

 

Ayame his girlfriend stood to his left the only female wolf youkai there. Her light brown hair pulled into two pigtails with a purple flower weaved in one. Her trademark demon claw necklace strung around her lean neck and her eyes were outlined in aquamarine. With a katana secured on her leather clad hip and with her thin arms crossed over her small chest she looked like innocent little girl.

 

Next to her was Miroku a houshi with a wind tunnel in his right hand covered by a fingerless glove, with rosary beads wrapping around his forearm. His short spiky black hair tied into a small ponytail at the nape of his neck. One hand on his staff the other one slowly inching closer to Sango's behind.

 

Sango who was soon to be furious with the monk, had her hair done up like Kagome's and her eyelids covered by a magenta colour eye shadow. Over her black taiji-ya outfit was tight leather pants. She had a huge boomerang hanging off her shoulder with a mask tied around the bottom of her face and a short katana secured to her belt loop.

 

Kikyou who was on Kouga's right wore a traditional miko outfit with a quiver of arrows strapped to her back and a bow in her hand. Silver eye shadow bringing out her cold, brown eyes.

 

This was her group the group that killed rouge youkai. Demons too evil to be in the world.

 

Tonight they were out to go out hunting again. A new family of demons had moved in.

 

Miroku turned to face Kouga but not before purposely brushing his hand along Sango's lower back. "So Kouga, do tell us who these new people are. Or should I say demons?" Sango shot a withering glare in Miroku's direction but looked determined to ignore him.

 

Kouga looked frustrated as he ran a hand through his hair "Ayame and I couldn't get that close without the father noticing us. And not just the father the older bother noticed me more."

Ayame nodding confirming the information "Yup, yup. But now that you mention the older brother brings me to the subject of how good looking he is."

 

Kouga shot her a look that made him look like he was about to burst a vessel "If I could get on with my story," he glanced at Ayame again.

 

Kikyou raised an eyebrow "Good looking boys? How good looking are we talking?"

 

Kouga if more looked more annoyed but Ayame looked like a kid on Christmas morning "The younger was defiantly a hanyou he had doggy ears. They were adorable I swear. I had to touch them so badly."

 

Kouga cut in "She had to touch them so much the second she saw him wander off alone she ran off after him. All the while demanding he let her play with his ears." Ayame blushed childishly.

 

"Oh that's promising. The guy already knows Ayame knows what he is." Kagome teased her younger friend with a mock angry tone. Sango giggled behind her back, while even Kikyou had to smile. Ayame just blushed harder.

 

Somewhere in the town a loud crack could be heard echoing through streets. At once the group was silence, no was smiling anymore.

 

There was no mistake in that sound, it was smashing concrete.

Kag: Raven, I think I like this story better… *a finger tapping her chin*

 

Raven: What is the difference? You are still going to be paired up with fluffy-sama. *looks around* Where is he anyway?

 

Everybody: … *shrugs, mumble breaks out*

 

Raven: *panicking* someone check his room!

 

Inu: *skidded to a stop* he's not there; he is not even in this building.

 

Raven: *freaking out* what the hell? *everybody running around like they are going to die any moment, screaming*

 

Sess: …*strolls into the room utter chaos, drinking a `boost' fruit juice, everybody then calms down*

 

Raven: *walks over* Where ever in the three realms were you? *gesturing wildly*

 

Sess: Around…

 

Raven: *throws hand up in frustration* Where, fluffy-sama where? Everybody was worried sick an-

 

Sess: Why are you even worried? As you can see Ms. Scriptwriter, my name is not even written on this entire `Chapter 1' script.

 

Raven: * feeling like this: -.-`' Note to self: never leave fluffy-sama out of a fic.* oh, you see, um… Sesshoumaru, it was not a very long chapter you see, and um-

 

Sess: *waves hand like dismissing one of his subjects* save your pathetic excuse for somebody else human.

 

Inu: *whispers* that's low...

 

Kag + Sango: *both nodds*

 

Raven: say that again, and I will pair you up with Kikyou, and make Kagome pair up with Inuyasha.

 

Inu: *holds breath* come on, I don't want to be alone again…

 

Sess: *gasps, threatening voice* you wouldn't dare.

 

Raven: *smirks* I will, and I can. It says so in your contract that you would do what the script says.

 

Sess: *tail twitches* fine, but-

 

Raven: but what fluffy-sama? *raises pen over script*

 

Sess: *growls* nothing, just fine.

 

Raven: *smirk again* thought so… *walks away to start on chapter 2*

 

Sess: *growls louder* I need to kill something. *stalks off the stage*

 

Kag: um… Please review, it helps to simulate Raven's inspiration, and help in faster and more chapters… thanks
