InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Rebirth of a Priestess ❯ Golden Eyes ( Chapter 1 )

Hello to everyone out there. This is the fourth fic that I have created so I hope you enjoy it. For those of you that have read any of my previous stories hopefully this will meet your high expectations. Also as many of you can see I'm very diversified. Aren't you proud? You may also be asking yourself why in the hell is she starting a new story when she still has to finish her other three. The answer is this just popped up and I had to write it. It was begging to be written and how could I deny an idea the right to be written. Anyways blah blah blah I'm sure you don't want to hear more.

NOTE: I would like to state that I write only because I want to. I don't do this for publicity or anything else. Also reviews would be greatly appreciated but I won't beg for them. I don't like it when other people do because they need to feel important. I also don't like writing them but if you send me a review I will gladly return the favor by sending you one. This is also stated in my bio.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Inuyasha characters. (I hate this part of the process in writing a fanfic.)

Rebirth of a Priestess

Chapter One: Golden Eyes

A blood-curdling scream broke the peaceful silence in the heart of the forest. Pounding footsteps could be heard, racing down a narrow path that wound through the dense trees. The panting breath of the prey led the hunter straight towards her. Not like there was anything she could have done to escape anyways.

He could smell her. The clothes wrapped around her body stunk of the sweat that seeped from the pores in her skin. Her tangled black hair had the slight scent of lavender, telling him all the more of her wealth. But most of all he could smell her fear. It radiated from her body and wrapped around her like a smothering cloak. This woman was scared. And she had every right to be. When he tired of the little cat and mouse game that he was playing he would kill her without mercy or remorse. It was always the same.

The woman in question finally broke through the cover of the forest into a small clearing. Her dark brown eyes darted around the area looking for a place to hide like a wild animal. Her normally sleek and beautiful black hair was now a disheveled mess and the light pink kimono that she wore was torn almost to shreds. Blood slowly dripped from several cuts along her body and splashed onto the ground below, staining it so permanently that not even something as inferior as dirt would ever forget this night.

The woman could hear the quick movements of something in the trees and she realized that she had hesitated too long. She turned to her right and tried to escape but it was too late. As soon as she took one step forward the hunter dropped to the forest floor in front of her. He stood up from his crouched position and glared at her with an icy hatred through golden eyes. That glare froze her in her spot and she started to tremble with fear. The hunter moved slowly towards her never looking away for a second.

"Give it to me," he demanded in a soft but threatening whisper. "Give me the Shikon no Tama."

"T-The what?" she stammered breathlessly.

"You know what I want. Now give it to me." The woman just whimpered as she kept on staring at the golden eyes in front of her. A look of disgust crossed the demon's face and the endless pit of golden eyes was the last thing that the woman ever saw.

Yes it's so very short but what do you want me to do. I hope that you liked this small little tidbit of a story and if you didn't too bad for you because it gets better. I just want to warn you before I forget that updates may not come as often as I'd like. Normally I update about every week but lately my updates have been getting farther and farther apart. Plus you have to keep in mind that I have three other fics that I'm working on. So just please try and be patient. Well, thanks for reading. See ya next time!
