Chapter 2

The Boy Who Found His Name

8 years later after that fateful night…

"Where are you boy?" A voice yelled through the denseness of the forest. Meanwhile the boy running as if it were for his life was cursing the same voice calling out for him.

`Maybe if I keep running he'll give up or something, fucking bastard!' he thought to himself pretty much hoping against hope.

"You know the longer you run the madder I get, you little monster." Naraku said with a barely contained temper. "And you also know the more angry I am, the even more horrible the punishment!" he seethed at the still running boy. But just as he was about to catch him, Naraku merely smiled when he walked a few more yards and saw the boy standing completely still in front of him.

"At least you've finally decided to listen for once, although it still won't help you, you little mo..."

"Mister Naraku?" a small voice called from the clearing mere yards from where he and the boy had stopped in the forest. Naraku cursed himself for not realizing how close he had gotten to the palace and shrine.

"Yes, Princess?" he questioned through gritted teeth at the 6 year old now inching towards him.

"Oh, sorry thought I heard something!" she replied cheerfully. The boy had never looked happier as he stared at his savior. However, the look that Naraku gave him changed his outlook into one of even greater fear than had been before.

"Very well then, Princess Kagome, Maybe you should go back home now, maybe?" he said, hoping he wasn't glaring at the young girl. She merely smiled and proceeded to infuriate him.

"Well, daddy said I could come out and play until it got dark, and we just ate lunch, plus Miroku and Sango are gonna' come and play with me so don't worries bout me!" she said as she giggled as she looked past naraku to see a small boy looking terrified to death behind her father's advisor. Then she asked the most horrible question Naraku could have though of. "Can he come and play?" He barely contained the snarl that was forming even as she asked her question, but he soon found an answer that he hoped would deter her.

"No Princess, he is a dangerous demon and should not be taken lightly." He said smoothly.

"He doesn't look dangerous to me, plus daddy said I could play with whoever I want." She said matter of factly.

"FINE!" Naraku shouted at the impossible six-year-old, gaining him a smug smile from the victorious one. He then stormed off cursing her and her father and headed towards the castle but not before whispering to the boy,

"Enjoy this while it lasts, because it won't!" Naraku didn't even have to check to see if he had heard him, he could smell the fear from a mile away. The boy started to walk back into the forest when someone clearing their throat stopped him.

"AHEM!, so what's your name?" Kagome asked innocently. He gawked at her as if she had grown another head, wondering if she had lost her mind, "what?, I just wanted to know!" she said defensively as he continued to stare at her.

"Why should I tell you?" he asked with a sneer similar to Naraku's.

"Because my daddy says its polite to ask someone's name if you don't know it!" she said with a pout.

"Do you always do what your daddy tells you, little girl?" he said laughing out loud at her which made her angry.

"No… not always." She said stubbornly.

"Do to!"

"Do NOT!"

"Do to"

"NO I DON'T!" she said with a now red face.

"Keh! Whatever, like I care…" he then turned to walk away again before a arm shot out to yank him back by his hair. "OW, what the fuck did you do that for bitch!" he screamed holding his throbbing head.

"cause, you were bein' mean, now are you gonna tell me your name or not?!" she said crossing her arms over her chest in firm resolution.

"Hanyou…" he replied miserably. The girl just stood shocked at the boy's confession before voicing her opinion.

"Hanyou? But that's not a name, who gave you that as a name?" she said scrunching up her face in confusion.

"Lord Naraku did, he took me in when I was abandoned and gave it to me, he said cause I deserved if for being born…" he admitted with a frown and sulk.

"Well, it's not a fitting name for you, I don't think, maybe… something a little better… whatcha say?" she said gaining her cheerful demeanor back, trying to bring him out of his sulk

"Whatever, I don't care." He said with nonchalance, secretly hoping she really would as told by the growing sparkle in his eyes. As Kagome thought for a minute, something seemed to call out to her… a sort of dejavu. As she closed her eyes in concentration, a name was slowly forming in her mind, but not by herself, the something that called to her was telling her, telling her the name he should have had.

"Got it!" she said after several minutes of deliberation. Unfortunately, `Hanyou' had also been deep in thought and had gotten the shock of his life when something suddenly yelled in his ear. When he realized what was going on he listened intently to what she had thought of in that diabolical mind of hers. Somehow he knew what she was going to say even before she said it, like he had known it all his life.

"Inuyasha!... So, whatcha think?" She said with a huge smile, like she had accomplished the most important task in her life.

"Feh, works for me." His said with his first real smile.

So yall like? I do, I know it short, even shorter then the last one, but senior project is kicking my ass, so this is all I got done. I hope to have the next chapter done by next Monday, so heres hoping, It'll prolly have Miroku and Sango, so tune it next time! Kudos and peace!
