Hey guys I thought I'd upload this since I wanted some feedback on the newest story I've been working on, I will continue with the other stories still, things are a little crazy right now so I'm working as quick as I can to get you guys the chapters up. Alright just a disclaimer I do not own any of the Inuyasha plots/story line or characters but I do own my own character - Hana, a lizard demon I haven't introduced her yet so I'll leave her name till later... I also have a few more new characters will be coming up too and I gave Kagome's father and mother a name, father - Masashi and mother - Ami.

Chapter 1: Shadows of Kagome's past

Kagome's pov:

We had been walking for ages without any sign of a jewel or Naraku for that matter, I was looking forward to going home, I missed my family but I couldn't, not just yet we were so close to getting Naraku a week ago. I liked not having to fight but I wanted Naraku gone, we had come passed a small hut at the start of a small village I saw a couple men taking away a man and a boy "Please don't take them, they're all I have" a woman pleaded. I frowned "Kagome the samurai are most likely from the lord of this part of the region we shouldn't interfere as much as it pains me to say" Miroku said I sighed, I knew the feeling of something being taken away "We should keep going there's nothing here for us" Inuyasha said and kept walking I hated not being able to do anything. We had walked far from the village and found a nice place to stay the night in the forest, we set up for the night "Ah Inuyasha that was mine!" Shippo yelled "Inuyasha sit! How many times have I told you to leave Shippo alone and stop eating his food" I said Inuyasha grumbled as he sat back up and grabbed some more food for himself.

I sighed softly "I'm going for a walk" I said I stood up and walked away from the group I looked up to see the stars through the gaps in the tree tops above, I had lost my father and older sister Hana she was only twelve, at the time I was seven and Sota was only a year old. Hana and father went out one day on a fishing trip and never came back mother said the search parties gave up that there were no traces of them anywhere and proclaimed them both dead, I hung my head as I sighed heavily, I wish they were still alive. I sat by the base of a tree and let my thoughts wonder for a while "Be strong my Kagome…" a voice called out I looked around in a huff, there was a layer of black mist, it had slowly started to creep back "You'll figure things out just don't lose hope…" the voice said again it sounded like my father's voice. I stood up "Dad…" I said softly "Trust in yourself Kagome…" the voice said again as the black mist started to disappear further into the forest "Dad!" I yelled as I ran after it "Dad don't leave me again! Dad!" I cried out.

My foot caught on a branch and I tripped over falling straight to the ground I sniffled as I sat up the mist was gone I sighed as hung my head "Kagome! Kagome!" voices called out for me "Kagome are you ok?" Sango said as she knelt by my side. I gave a nod "Yes…" I replied softly "Then what the hell was all that screaming about?" Inuyasha snapped "I thought…" I started to say then shook my head "It doesn't matter let's get back to camp" I said and stood up waking back the way I came. I didn't speak one word, once I got back I went straight to my sleeping bag and laid down and faced my back to the group, I could have been imaging that or even worse it could have been a trap while my thoughts wondering over the events I drifted to sleep. I felt the closing in of jewel shards, two of them and I knew who they belonged to, I got up to see Koga come by Inuyasha got up pretty quick "What do you want fleabag?" Inuyasha growled "Sit, can't you for once be nice" I said.

The others had got up at the sound of Inuyasha being plummeted into the ground "Kagome how are you? I hope you've been well" Koga said I turned back to Koga "Huh? Oh I'm fine" I said. "I don't think fine is right, you ran off last night and never told us why after we came after you" Sango said I sighed as I looked to the ground "I thought… No I heard my father, it was definitely him but there was all this black mist everywhere I went to follow but it disappeared" I replied. "Kagome isn't your father in your word?" Shippo asked "Tch he ain't there if he were I would've meet him by now" Inuyasha said as he got up "How could your father possibly be here though, would he have travelled through the well too?" Miroku said. "I was seven when I last saw him, the last I heard he was proclaimed dead" I said sadly I was suddenly engulfed in a hug, Koga had me in a tight but comforting embrace, that was all it took for me, I had never talked about my father since his passing.

I hugged Koga back and cried, Koga tightened his grip slightly "Hey Koga could you slow down for once" Hakkaku's voice rung out "What's wrong with sister Kagome?" Ginta's voice "It's a complex matter" Miroku's voice. "It ain't complex the guys dead so it was probably just her imagination" Inuyasha's voice I let go of Koga and turned to Inuyasha "SIT! I didn't imagine it, it was my father, Sit!" I snapped "Kagome do you think your father is in our era and alive?" Miroku asked. "It's hard to believe but I did hear him, I just couldn't see him through all that black mist" I replied "I'll help find your father Kagome" Koga said I looked to him "Thank you Koga" I said Koga gave a slight smile. "Stupid, what makes you think his alive…? It's probably Naraku's trick and even more so if your father is alive how could he possibly be in this era?" Inuyasha said as he raised a brow and crossed his arms across his chest.

"I could answer that for you" a voice trailed everyone was on guard, there was a female propped against the tree on a branch "Kagome it's a pleasure to finally meet you, oh how we've waited to see you but sadly not everyone wants you here one in particular, so you better watch your back" she said. She had an armoured like ninja clothing (black with red detail) and a robe like mask around her head only her eyes were visible the left eye hazel and the right grey "Is that a threat?" Koga growled "Threat no I wish to warn her, after all Kagome got herself into this mess so it's not very wise that she looks for her father but if she wants to let it be at her will" she said. "What do you know about my father?" I asked "Your father, everyone knows your father and if they don't they should fear him…" she replied "Give Kagome a straight answer you overgrown lizard" Inuyasha snapped. "Or you'll what? Give me rabies? Fleas perhaps? Look Kagome I have come on behalf of my master to warn you, our top assassin is not to be messed with if she sees you she will send you home and make sure that your family stays in the future where you belong" she said "Assassin? Wait what does she have to do with me? I haven't done anything bad to anyone ever" I said.

"Oh really? Are you sure? You have a black speckle in your heart Kagome, you did a dark deed more than even Naraku could ever have hoped to do himself…" she said "Kagome is nothing like Naraku! How dare you!" Koga yelled she laughed. "Oh but I'm sure she'll figure just what she did… Maybe you should remember your nightmare… Farewell" she said and sprung from the branch disappearing into the forest, I frowned as I looked down to the ground what could I have done? What nightmare does she refer to? "Kagome… Do you know of what she meant?" Miroku asked. I lost my frown and looked to him "No… I can't think of anything that she meant" I said "This doesn't make sense… Last night you heard but didn't see your father and this morning that assassin turns up and seems to know everything about you and your family" Sango says "That assassin is also a demon, a lizard demon" Koga said. "A demon assassin… I think I've heard stories of their colt, do you know of the brotherhood colt made up of demons, half demons and humans?" Sango asked "Oh are you referring to the Grim Reapers?" Hakkaku asked back "Yes that's them, her clothing is a part of the colts appearance code" Sango said.

"How would you know this?" Inuyasha snapped "Sit" I said and he plummeted to the ground "Would you stop doing that!" Inuyasha growled "Our demon slayer village admired their ways, looked up to them but we feared them, they had right to be feared, if the coin was good enough they would kill whoever they were told to no matter the cost" Sango said. "So if she knew my father… He was most likely apart of…" I started to say "You're father was a killer…" Inuyasha said "Mutt why don't you stay in that hole of yours and shut your trap, Kagome's been through enough without you barking" Koga said. "Hey Kagome I forgot to give you a gift… Something to help since you've forgotten" the female's voice appeared again I turned around to have a black substance blown into my face, I immediately felt sleepy and felt my body collapse "Kagome!" voices yelled out I was caught before I hit the ground just as my eyes had shut. I felt strange like I was in a black room and a light appeared I could see my home, my father, mother she was holding Sota he looked about one… This is my past but why this moment, as I walked closer I saw Hana she just turned twelve and myself we were playing.

I had no idea why I was meant to see this but it was obviously important, suddenly time went forward and night had come I had changed from being outside our home to being in my bedroom, my mother and father were tucking me in. Not long after my door swung open and a girl who looked around Hana's age came in, she looked like a half demon, she had wolf ears and a wolf tail "Kagome, hey wake up you got to see this" the girl said with a grin showing her fangs off the past me screamed and pushed her away. "Daddy! Mommy!" I screamed they had come in seconds later my father first "It's a monster daddy, it's gonna kill me, please kill it daddy, get it away from me" I cried as I ran to my mother, my father had grabbed the girl who looked like she was about to cry, the view changed again. I was now in my sisters room "Are you ok? What were you thinking? Kagome is not ready to know this yet" father said "I'm so sorry dad…" the girl said I gasped Hana was the one who scared me, she's a half demon but how? And How come I never saw her like that all the time? And what about me why am I not half demon? Just then my father had placed a necklace over Hana.

She turned into a human again Hana hugged my father as she cried "She wants me dead dad… She thinks I'm a monster…" Hana cried just at that point the view of them, my home had disappeared and I was left in darkness, I told my own father to kill Hana. The blackness disappeared as I heard the others talk, I fluttered my eyes open "Kagome… We were so worried" Shippo exclaimed "Are you ok?" Sango asked. "I know what she meant now... And I know there's a possibility of getting my father back" I replied "You don't believe her about your heart being tainted do you?" Miroku questioned "It was once, I was a child and acted out of fear" I said sadly "That's in the past, you're a better person now, so do you know this woman assassin that could hold such anger towards you and family?" Sango asked. "I have a thought but I'm not sure if it's accurate, if it is I'm sure she's just acting out of fear the way I did back then" I said "Who do you think it is?" Shippo asked "My older sister, Hana" I said "You have a sister" Miroku says Sango hits him over the head and gives him a glare.

Ok well that's the first chapter hopefully it's off to a good start, I'm looking forward to feedback good and bad, thanks for reading guys till next time :)
