InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Silver Souled One ❯ Broken Promise ( Chapter 1 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or any other anime. If I did, they would be on every day of the
week, for 2 hour periods, and they would have portals where us anime lovers could cross over
into any anime we want. Rumiko Takahashi is doing a good job right now, so I'll leave it up to
her.




Kagome sighed, as she trailed her fingers through the crystalline waters, staring at her
reflection peering up sadly from the water. Her image was soon disrupted by the tears falling
from her face.

‘Why,'she thought brokenly.'Why did you leave me.'

The forest grew still, as her heartbroken scream cut through the silence."You promised,"
Kagome screamed. "Damn you Inuyasha, you promised."Her voice trailing to a whisper. "You
promised not to leave me, why did you leave me?"

FLASHBACK


The sky swirled with the thunderous clouds, which cried blood as the weary
group below battled fiercely against their enemy. Demons screeched in pain as they
were killed, taken down by the giant boomerang, whirling it's deadly path through the
demons, returning to the taijiya known as Sango, who hurled into the thousands of
demons as soon as her Hiraikotsu touched her hand.

A monk by the name Miroku twirled and struck down any demons close to him
with his staff, throwing ofudas when he had the chance. Blood dripped down the
numerous cuts and gashes adorning his body, though his deep blue eyes shown with
determination, even as his body was starting to show the effect of his many wounds
pouring out his life blood.

The huge fire nekomata Kirara tackled demons, tearing out their throats,
protecting a young kitsune.

Shippo was doing his share of helping, burning down the demons with his
kitsune-bi, which had grown increasingly more powerful over the two years since he
joined the Inu-gumi.

A streak of red blurred through the army of demons, who were rapidly
disappearing in explosions of yellow light, as the cries of "Wind Scar" erupted from the
hanyou Inuyasha's mouth. He twisted around, slicing the demon that was behind him in
half, a snarl escaping his lips. His silver hair swirled in front of his face, as the golden
eyes scanned the battlefield, stopping on a figure dressed in white, who was
slaughtering any demons foolish enough to be near him. Inuyasha smirked, as he
watched his ‘dear' older brother Sesshomaru battle his way through the army, heading
toward the center where their enemy stood arrogantly, surveying the gruesome war in
front of him.

Blood red eyes shone with sick amusement as he watched his war rage on.

Inuyasha snarled, chopping off a few heads with his sword Tetsuaiga. ‘ Damn,
how the hell am I supposed to get to Naraku with all these demons around,' he thought,
momentarily getting distracted from the battle around him.

"Inuyasha, watch out!" A young teen called out, as she sent a purifying arrow
toward her ‘brother', obliterating the huge ogre who was just about to sink his axe into
Inuyasha's back.

Inuyasha whipped around, blinking at the ogre parts that were still in the process
of falling. He looked over at Kagome, who flashed a smile at him, before getting back to
purifying demons.

Kagome's eyes roamed the battlefield searching for her friends. She sighed in
relief when she saw they were still holding out. Her usually cheery cocoa brown eyes
saddened as they surveyed the battle in front of her. ‘So much death.' Her eyes
hardened as they settled on the demon who was the cause for the fight and her friends
pain. A flame of fury swelled inside her as she watched him laugh at the death
surrounding him. ‘You won't be laughing after this,' she thought vehemently, as she
picked up an arrow off the ground and nocked it in her trusty bow. ‘You die now,' she
thought as she pulled back and released the arrow, which shone brightpink with her
miko powers, purifying a path through the demons, hitting Naraku straight in the
stomach. ‘That's got to hurt,' she smirked. The smirk slid off her face, though, when
furious red eyes landed on her. Kagome could practically feel the anger radiating off the
glare. ‘Maybe that wasn't such a good idea,' she thought as Naraku strode through the
carnage toward her, a sinister glint in his eyes, as he reached down and pulled out the
arrow, flinging it away as though it was a twig. ‘Uh oh,' she thought, as she started
backing away from the murderous dark hanyou striding his purposely towards her. He
strode faster, already one third of the way there. Kagome tried to quell her fear. ‘This is
no time to be afraid,' she thought furiously. Keeping her eyes on him, she reached over
her back to her quiver...only to find that she had run out of arrows. ‘GOD DAMMIT!' she
screamed in her head, ‘notgoodnotgoodnotgoodnotgoodnotgoodNOTGOOD!'

Naraku seemed to sense the spike of fear that rose from Kagome, because a
feral grin slid onto his face, and red started to seep into his eyes, which shone more
animalistic by the second.

‘Oh man, is he going into blood lust mode?' Kagome saw his claws getting
sharper, and his youki started swirling violently. ‘Oh my God, he is! Okay, screw that
earlier thought, now is a very good time to be afraid!' Kagome scrambled backwards,
trying to get as far away from Naraku as possible, without taking her eyes off him. ‘Oh
shit. And to think I used my last arrow on a demon worm that's only attack was to spit
goop at you!' She yelped when her foot got stuck in a couple of bones, cracking her
head on a skull bone. Stars burst in front of her eyes, sending a searing pain jolting
through her head. She gasped, clutching her head, waiting for the flashing lights and
racking pain to subside. She groaned, trying to push back the pain, slowly opening her
eyes, only to slam them shut as the blinding light sent a stab of pain through her head .
She heard a pain filled scream, and snapped her eyes open, just in time to see three
miasma coated tentacles pierce through her brother Inuyasha, coming straight out of
the back of the back of the body.

Kagome froze, feeling herself go cold. Everything seemed to stop, and the
sounds of the battle faded away. She was aware of someone screaming, vaguely
realizing it was her.

The battle seemed to halt, all the participants staring in shock at the dead body
hanging from Naraku's tentacles.

Kagome couldn't move, her eyes glued to her brothers limp body. Her face turned
deadly white, her eyes wide, never blinking.

Naraku looked over to the frozen miko sitting on the ground, shock written all
over her pretty face. His dark laugh, was carried to the frozen warriors. None of them
moved, not yet comprehending the scene before them. Naraku's voice rang through the
silent battlefield. "Well, now that I got what I came for, I'll be taking my leave." His eyes
glinted mockingly. "By no means am I through with you all yet, but I think this is enough
for today." With that said, he started to turn away.

A strangled croak came from Kagome's gaping mouth.

Naraku stopped, peering back at her, before following her gaze to the dead
hanyou still impaled on his tentacles. He chuckled quietly. "Oops, how careless of me.
I'll just return this, and then I'll be on my way."

And with that, he flung the body towards Kagome before disappearing in a cloud
of miasma, taking Kagura, Kanna, and Hakudoushi with him.

Inuyasha flew through the air, before landing straight on Kagome's lap. Kagome
stared blankly at Inuyasha's dull eyes gazing at her. Her eyes then drifted to the holes
the size of a fist going through his head, chest, and stomach. Blood and gore was
leaking from the holes. Kagome's skin turned a ghastly shade of grey, before fainting
dead away on top of Inuyasha.




How did you like it? I hope it's okay, it's my second fanfic. The other one was a oneshot
called Our Baby. It was pretty short. This story will definitely be longer. I already have
the second chapter written out, I just need to type it up. If you could pretty please
review, so I can see if I need to change anything. Flames, while not welcomed, will be
accepted, so I can see if I need to improve anything. I should get the second chapter up
later today or tomorrow. Thanks.
