   HEHE!! Fan Fic!!!!
Here is chapter 1 of my 1st inu fan fic! (reading order 1st not the 1st I write...)

A Friend in Shadow

Chapter I
Shadows Speak


“Get out of here you foolish Hanyou child!” “We have no use for a half-breed!” I watched with horror as the villagers shunned this poor child. Barely 5 years old he had just witnessed his mother’s death and the villagers would not allow him to attend the burial. His silver hair was dirty and his golden eyes were swollen with tears. “But my mommy…” “Leave filthy half-blood! Leave and never return here!” I could stand it no more, from my place in the shadows I spoke: “Leave this boy be! I shall be his guardian and if you should harm him you shall face the wrath of the Angels!” The effect was immediate; the villagers bowed and cringed in fear. The leader, however, wasn’t intimidated. “What foolishness is this? The Angels passed out of this world long ago.” That did it, I leaped out of the shadows behind the fool and rammed my blade though him. I drew up to my full stature and spread my black leathery wings wide. I laughed upon seeing the stunned looked on the villager’s faces. “We have not passed on! The Angels live and this boy is the younger brother of one of our number!” A woman spoke, “You mean to say Izayoi first child?” “Exactly. Nazakura is the Angel of Water.” The boy raised his eyes at the mention of his sister’s name. “Is she okay? Where did sister go?” His voice was shaky and fearful. “Yes little one she is well.” The villagers left and the boy followed them to his old house. I glance over at the body of the leader, “You deserved far worse old man. And far worse you shall get, your soul will watch the falling of your family by your own mind and then shall linger here while they depart to the spirit world. A murderer like you deserves no life or peace after death. In your wake the house will burn but the boy will live and the first child he fathers will be an Angel and her vengeance will hit all of your blood until the murder of Izayoi is repaid. Betrayer of your lord.” Glancing at him again I found it hard to believe that such a terrible poison could have been devised. ‘Inutaishou, how could you not have seen this happen. You knew what a Hanyou would live… How could you have left her alone… You should have sent me sooner… Oh… Inutaishou you old fool… I’ll never be able to endure this… How can I…’ I laughed at the thought of my foolish promise.
-Flashback-
“You will look after them if anything happens to me right?” I glanced at him, his brow was furrowed and his eyes were stern. “I promised didn’t I? If anything happens to your mate I’ll take your son under my wings, quite literally in fact.” He smiled, took up his blade and left my hut with no further word or back wards glance. I notice the wetness of my paper as my tears flowed. My dear friend was going to his death…
-End-
I looked up to the moon, ‘I was right wasn’t I? You were a fool… Inutaishou…’ “Why didn’t you listen to me?!!!!” My tears began to fall again freely and unstopped. I hadn’t cried since that day… when my best friend died in my arms… when I became the guardian of Izayoi and InuYasha… when my Angel powers gained a whole new meaning… I was a guardian and the Angel of Darkness… I was snapped from my thoughts by the screams of a child and a distant but clear red glow over the roves of houses. “You see old man. The time has come to watch you family fall.”
