First Meeting ( Kikyo )

[Inu Yasha]

It was a quiet day within the forest as the wind breezed wildly within the leafs covering the green and vast nature. A boy running through the woods , jumping from branches to branches while moving at an inhuman speed would carry onto his task as he keeps on reciting his dream.

''Finally! Today I'll get the Shikon Jewel and become a Full fledged demon!''

Following by scent alone , the boy'd try to trace the trails of the village which held it though an unexpected predication was going to fall on the behalf of our young half demon... A undoubtedly and long adventure was going to await him from this moment on... Where the unknown can be crossed at any where and any time ... This would be the beginning of our wild adventurer. Inu Yasha!

''No one will stop me... Hahaha! ... This will finally be the day... No one will ever mock of me again! ''

[Kikyo / Jaken]

Kikyo was a human woman. She was a human woman who loved children. Kikyo had children with her now and these children brought her flowers or weeds without the knowledge to distinguish between them. The children asked her to tell them what these flowers or weeds were.

A young girl handed her a dandelion and asked her what it was. Kikyo smiled at the girl because Kikyo knew that the girl already knew what it was. A young boy handed her a balloon flower and asked her what it was. Kikyo took the flower from the boy and smelt it.

"This is a balloon flower, Aritomo. It is also known as a Chinese bell-flower. The balloon flower is the flower that I am named after."

The children were impressed that Aritomo gave Kikyo the flower Kikyo was named after. This seemed to inspire the children to find her more flowers that had sentimental value to her. "Children, wait!" She called after them, but the children were gone.

Kikyo sighed but was unable to suppress her smile. She knew they would return. However, she sensed the presence of a hanyou. She became alert.

It was not uncommon for Kikyo to sense the presence of a demon, however, the presence of a hanyou was uncommon. The hanyou aura approached her at high speed.

Kikyo stood up and drew her bow. She was prepared to shoot the hanyou should it attack her. "Hanyou!" she shouted at the trees. "Welcome to my village."

Kikyo would not draw an arrow unless the hanyou became hostile. "May I ask your name, and more importantly, your reason for coming here?" She put a strand of hair behind her ear, however, the hair fell from her ear into her face. Kikyo often had her hair pulled back, but the children had untied it to play with it.

[Inu Yasha]

As Inuyasha rushes through within the mid air his attention would suddenly be drawn by a sudden voice of a female as his head tilts to the left following the sound track.

''He..?''

Upon a first glance , in no way any living girl in the world would possess such beauty though this wasn't going to stop Inuyasha from his ways of getting the shikon no tama. The boy would sense a immense purifying aura projecting from the female though for sure she would be a priest with that kind of clothes.

''Welcome to my village?''

Surely the female'd possess a pair of archery sets though why she doesnt use them to fend him off? Naturaly , any human would chase off a demon if they could! Thought why not now?... What is it with her? In any case , it'd seems that a bunch of child is next to her. If situations were to get rather ugly or if the female's power was excedding far more then that of the youth , he'd most likely take one of them for hostages.

''That sure are some kind words coming from a human... I came here to get the Shikon no Tama! Tell me where it is priest!''

Inuyasha'd sharpen his claws as he watches over toward the delicate godly essence of beauty. Such a shame that he'd have to pull these claws on her... Indeed , there was no one in the past that could ever stop him from getting what he wanted so far.. And he'll not stop! Especially not now...

[Kikyo / Jaken]

Kikyo frowned. This hanyou was rude. He hadn't answered her questions but he had extended his talons. Kikyo looked to her right and to her left. The children were not with her now but the children would be back soon. If the children came back when this hanyou was here she did not know what he would do.

"You came here to get the Shikon no Tama?" Kikyo asked, and her frown became a smile. "I can tell you where it is. My name is priestess Kikyo. I am the guardian of the Shikon no Tama. It will be the last name you hear if you try to take the Shikon no Tama from me."

Although a hanyou was uncommon, his cause was common. Kikyo had killed demons and humans for that cause and Kikyo thought that their cause was not worth their life. Kikyo wanted to know whether they had thought the same thing before their life was gone. It made her sad to think about, but she was not sad now. She was determined.

Kikyo decided that his extended talons meant that he was hostile. She had thought earlier that if he became hostile she would draw an arrow. Kikyo did draw an arrow. However, before she could shoot the arrow Aritomo returned to the glade with another flower. "Kikyo! Kikyo! What is this flower?"

It was a red spider-lily. However, Kikyo did not answer him. She gave him a command as he ran to her. "Aritomo! Do not come here! Go back to where you came!" Kikyo looked from Aritomo to the hanyou. Kikyo did not know why but she did not want to shoot the hanyou.

"Go back now, hanyou! This is a peaceful village. If you disturb the peace, I will kill you!" Kikyo hoped that her warning would be enough.

[Inu Yasha]

Inu Yasha'd show a smile of satisfaction as he sees the child running closer and closer. Surely he had noticed that Kikyo knew what he was going to do next so she better have to intentions to tell him where that jewel is.

''So... It seems that you can read my next step huh..? How about you tell me where that jewel is before I sharpen my claws on that little... And you?..''

In noway Inuyasha'd do the things that he had just said though those would only be bluffs to pull out some information that he needed to acquire. The priestess didn't seem to be like a bad women though good or not Inuyasha had to get the jewel.. It was today that his days of suffering and being rejected ends! Through his eyes would sadness and despair would fill in as a cold and delivering air would be sent upon the child spines while he raises his hands showing his sharp claws once again while looking at the young priestess.

''You hurt me?... What a joke hahaha! I got to admit that you are a priestess though... A human taking on a demon!? I do not wish to fight you also though.. IF you can just spit out the information about the jewel and give it to me , I'd be thankful and will promise to not hurt the villagers.''

[Kikyo / Jaken]

Kikyo became frustrated with Inu-Yasha and shouted to him, "I have told you where the Shikon Jewel is! I have it!" Kikyo frowned and continued "However, I am the guardian of the Shikon Jewel, and as the guardian, I will not give the Shikon Jewel to you."

The hanyou threatened to hurt Aritomo. Kikyo shook her head to shake her hair behind her shoulders. "If you want the Shikon Jewel, come to the ground and fight me! You do not need to hurt the children to fight me. Unless you are not brave enough to fight a human woman and have to hurt the children to win against me?"

Kikyo had used her gender to her advantage and continued to use her gender to her advantage. When Kikyo asked a male if he were afraid to fight a female, the male said no to prove to Kikyo that because he was a male he was stronger than her. Kikyo had drawn her bow and her arrow earlier.

Now Kikyo put her arrow to her bow and aimed. When Kikyo had aimed Kikyo released the arrow. Kikyo expected Inu-Yasha to dodge her arrow. If he did dodge her arrow Kikyo expected him to attack her. Kikyo had no doubt about that because she had fought demons and humans like this hanyou.

Kikyo was in constant battle. In constant battle her life was in constant danger. It was more than her life that was in constant danger. The life of the villagers in the village that Kikyo protected were in constant danger. Kikyo had too much to live for to die.

Kikyo had everything to live for but Kikyo although Kikyo did not let that upset her. The recoil from the arrow Kikyo shot at Inu-Yasha caused her shirt to fall down to her shoulders. Kikyo had done that on purpose because she was fighting a man. However, this is not what Kikyo wanted.

Kikyo wanted to show her shoulders to a man she loved, not a man she needed to distract. However, Kikyo did not have a man she loved. Kikyo had men like Inu-Yasha, who she needed to distract. Kikyo decided that it didn't matter that she didn't have a man she loved. She was the guardian of the Shikon Jewel.

The Shikon Jewel was her purpose in life. If she had a man she loved he might become her purpose in life.
