Final Distance
By: DemonSaya
Author's Notes: This is the long awaited sequel to Demon Body,
Human Heart. It's going to take place mostly in the future, and will
probably be longer than it's predecessor. I have some rather sick twists
plotted into the story, and decided which characters would be returning
cooler than ever, and which would remain in the background this time.
This one I'm hoping will be a little more comedic, and alot less angsty,
mainly because I may throw in some random guest appearances. Who?
Do you think I'm that nuts? That would give it all away!
Flame Policy: Just don't do it. Trust me. I can get scarier than Otouto-
chan.

Prolouge-Rebirth
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The spirit had floated in limbo for five hundred years, looking for a
human who was evil enough for him to be reborn into. He scoured the
globe, dreaming of the day he would get his revenge upon Inuyasha
and his little witch. No little human should have been able to kill him,
and no hanyou should have been able to injure him so badly.
His hatred for the inuyoukai grew stronger and stronger, till finally, it
began to eat away at his spirit. When he finally found a human who
was corrupt enough for him to possess, he'd almost lost all of himself.
He'd never felt so weak in his life.
Was this what death felt like?
He'd thought death was when he'd been purified, but no, only his body
died that day. His soul remained floating in limbo, on the earth plane,
but unable to obtain the shikon no tama which he so desperately
desired. It still missed two pieces, but he knew it no longer existed in
his time. Well, if that was the case, he would just have to wait and bide
his time.
And wait he did. He waited for five hundred years, till a body corrupt
enough with hatred accepted him. It was the body of a teenage boy
who was dying of cancer. When Naraku found him, he felt a strange
feeling, as if he pitied the boy, or even felt a strange kinship to him.
"I can save you." Naraku said softly, his face completely emotionless
as he looked down at the child. "I can give you power you never
dreamed, and in doing so, you can extract your revenge on human
kind." He saw the boy's eyes narrow a bit and smiled.
"Hmph...what do I care..." He looked away. "Everyone just wants me to
die. Mom says she wants me to live, but I know the truth. She just
wants me to die!"
Naraku reached into the boy's heart and found a twinge of doubt. "If
they want you to die, wouldn't they hate it if you lived..." He saw the
boy's eyes widen and knew he had him. "Just imagine if you made a full
recovery, and were stronger than before...more powerful than before..."
He linked his soul with the boy's and cried out in pain as some of his
energy drained. "Join with me...and survive..."
The boy's body convulsed in pain and arched off the bed. The heart
monitors went crazy, and nurses flooded the room. "Maikeru!" A
middle-aged woman cried, running in behind the nurses.
Naraku looked through the eyes of the boy as the child's body stilled.
The boy's mind was still there, connected with his, but it made him
stronger, absorbing the boy's hatred into his own body. "Mother..."
Naraku said, and smiled weakly.
The woman burst into sobs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Naraku frowned as he walked towards the school which he now was
forced to go to. Perhaps he should have picked an older person. Not
that it mattered. He knew there was nothing these people could teach
him that he didn't already know.
He'd adapted to his new appearance relatively quickly, his now short
brown hair and deep green eyes feeling rather comforting to him. It was
nice to have a physical presence again. Unfortunately, he wasn't
enjoying being treated like a frail child. He was Naraku. If that bitch
hadn't interfered, he would have been able to complete the shikon no
tama and would have been the most powerful demon alive.
His problem with school wasn't so much that he was forced to go
practically every day. It was the stupid looking uniform they made him
wear. And all the girls that fawned after him. It didn't help that so far
he'd heard nothing of the Shikon no Tama, nor had he seen the hanyou
and his bitch.
'What are you thinking about, now, Naraku-sama?" The boy that
shared his mind asked.
"Hmph." Naraku said, walking past a bunch of giggling girls. "As if
you don't know, anyways." He knew that when he was stronger, he'd
just absorb the boy until there was nothing left. That wasn't possible,
because the boy's heart was far stronger than he'd suspected. In
addition, it wasn't as dark as he thought it would be.
'Who is Inuyasha?'
He ground his teeth together at the mention of the name. "A
bastard...who took from me something that would have made me the
most powerful being alive. Him and his whore." He growled. "The
Shikon no Tama..."
'I have heard of it. My mother claimed to want it so she could save me.
Hmph. She just wanted to wish my death with it.'
Naraku sneered, till he heard something catch his ear.
"Mou, Inuyasha! You can't stay at my house if you don't come to
school! You heard Mama!"
Naraku turned half-way, looking towards the girl who'd spoken. He
almost gasped in shock, but managed to quell it.
It was the girl.
Inuyasha was walking beside her, arguing, his collar unbuttoned, his
eyes flashing in anger.
Naraku smiled cruelly.
He'd found them.

Author's Notes: Well, what do you think? I hope things will get a bit
more interesting in the later chapters. I wasn't really sure how I was
going to bring him back, but I guess this works for now. Until next
Chapter! *DemonSaya*
