AN: I know I've not updated for a while, but here's a story for now until I can get the next chappie up for my HP story! If any of the info is wrong just tell me!
Disclaimer: I do not own any InuYasha characters. I just borrowed them without the intent to return them! HEHE!
An elderly woman stood next to several graves. Some were fresher than others, but all were still new. The war of Naraku and the Susaku's band of Seven had ended. The Feudal Era was in peace, but there would be no celebrations. The heroes of the war had perished as well.
The old woman stepped up to the first grave. It was the oldest of the new graves. She placed a handful of flowers by the stone as she brushed dirt and grime from the name on the stone.
Songo the Demon Slayer
Killed during battle saving a child.
May she live again in time of peace.
She stepped over to the next stone, and set down flowers as she cleaned the stone.
Miroku the Monk.
Killed by poison insects through
his Wind Tunnel defending his
comrades. May his burdens be lightened.
She stepped to the next grave. It was a dual stone as these had been lovers that had died together.
Ayame of the North Tribe.
Koga of the East Tribe
Both killed by mortal wounds
received during a battle against Naraku
May their love last eternal.
She stepped to the next stone with a heavy heart. It was true she cared for all of them, this grave was of the youngest member of their group. Just a child that protected his friends.
Shippo the Fox Demon
Died protecting his comrades
from Kagura the Wind Demon.
May his flame burn brightest.
The next grave brought a sad smile to her face. The brothers had just become friends again when this had happened.
Sesshomaru Lord of the West, Dog Demon
Killed seeking revenge for a soul lost before
her time. May his battered soul be at peace.
The next grave was of a child as well. Just a few years older that Shippo, but still small.
Rin, the Lost Child
Died protecting her Sesshomaru
when she was injured as well
May she find her path by his side again.
She slowly made her way to the next grave. A tear slid down her cheek. This child never got the chance to really live.
Kohako the Demon Slayer
Another victim of Naraku
Another soul to young
May he be at peace with the
demons of his heart
The last and final grave brought a stream of silent tears from her eyes as she knelt next to the stone of the newest grave. She placed a few extra flowers here as she brushed a hand across the names on the dual headstone.
InuYasha the Youkai
Kagome the Timewalker and Priestess
Fought `til the end
Gave their lives for others
May the wings of time
carry them together
The woman stood as a child stepped from the shadows. “ Lady Kiade, are you alright?”
The old woman turned and nodded to the young girl, “ Yes child. It does my heart sad to have these children buried before me. They shall be remembered for all time.” She said then stepped back facing the graves. She held her hands up towards the sky and she spoke loudly to the Heavens. “ I, Priestess Kiade, make this prophecy! These fallen souls, taken too soon, shall be reborn to live the lives meant for them. So Mote It BE!” Thunder clapped in the distance as if in agreement.
