Kotori opened her eyes and found herself at these people's campsite. She winced as the human woman used medicine to heal the wounds that she inflicted on herself.
" Ouch!" Kotori flinched.
" It's okay, the pain is just temporary." the human with cute armor said, as she began to wrap bandages on the naked half-breed.
" Here's a spear kimono." the human woman said with the funny-looking clothes.
This is an interesting group of people three humans a half-demon, and a kid demon.
Kotori put on the kimono and was amused with seeing humans that had such decency. She found comfort in these clothes they seem to be owned by a priestess. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath of remembrance of her mother who was also a priestess. The scent was similar but not the same.
" You need to start answering questions now!" the hot-tempered half-breed marched and interrogate her with questions, "What is your connection to the village and Naraku? Why do you have so many jewel shards? I don't trust her one bit Naraku scent is all over this." He snickered.
He's going to be a problem and I should fix this to shut him up for the time being... I need to gain their trust...I wonder what they think of me Kotori thought to herself.
" I'm very sorry. Where are my manners? I was told to fetch some buckets of water for the crops but when I came back the village was in flames and demons were devouring my people. I saw the demon red eyes and hid like a coward in the woods then got attacked... I was so scared...Ko is the name that was given to me by my parents and now they're dead. They told me to protect the shards and that was our last conversation, and it's all my fault.." She bury her face into her hands and made realistic sob noises.
" Look what you did InuYasha, you made her cry." the fox demon sighed.
"It's okay fox demon." She said and put the cloth on her face.
" Pay the half-demon no attention and focus on me milady." the human male tried to cheer her up with his charms. He has black hair with thick bags tied in a small ponytail on the back of his neck, navy eyes, and wears golden earrings. The robe is what most wondering monks are actually quite poor and ragged - often stitched together out of whatever pieces of cloth a person might give them on their travels. However, his robes are quite extravagant and expensive compared to those of most itinerant monks." Will you bear my child, Ko?" He cupped both of her hands.
"Yes, monk. It will be my honor and my parents would be proud," Kotori answered and found this human quite amusing. Everyone was shocked by her answer.
He blushed a bit was about to touch the half-breed butt but Kotori did not notice. He could not control himself with such beauty and attractive figure.
" Miroku!" the human woman's hand came across the monk's face.
A sweatdrop on the side of the monk's face with a red handprint by his companion's actions as he fell to the ground.
" That lecherous monk!" a human said angrily with her fist balled up." Please don't pay him any mind."
" Yeah, she's right. He's always like that" the other human woman agreed.
She's the one I need to get close to! She can be my eyes in collecting the jewel shards Kotori thought to herself and look at the human.
" Let's drop her off at the next village and hurry up, and find Naraku." the half-demon suggested.
No no no... he became a problem again
" Let's make sure that she's in good hands first." the monk added.
" I want to defeat Naraku, too. He caused me so much suffering in just one day I want to train hard and get revenge." Kotori declared." I remember his red eyes and black hair." She said in confusion as she made up by looking at the human that helped her guess.
" Maybe it won't be so bad InuYasha." the fox demon said.
" The three of us girls could be like sisters," the human with the armor said.
" That's a great idea." the other human agreed.
" It looks like we're outnumbered, InuYasha." the monk chucked.
Yes! I won them over
" I don't trust her one bit." the half-dog demon said. He watched the females sit down and talk. They gathered around the campfire and spoke of Naraku.
" InuYasha, are you still awake?" Kotori questioned and realized that everyone was fast asleep.
" What do you want?" he asks, leaning against a tree.
" Why don't you like me? It's pretty much obvious" She said
" I don't trust you and something about your story is fishy. You have shards but why would a half-demon like yourself have them. Just give them to us so I can become a full-fledged demon." InuYasha demanded.
" Ah! I see." Kotori understood the half-breed a little bit and why he's so hostile towards her. They are the complete opposite and must've had a terrible experience among humans that he resorts to his demon side, unpleasant hunger that cannot be controlled. It'll abandon every part of humans and rather become a blood-thirsty beast. She found him unworthy of the jewel shards and became more determined to grant her desire. She will collect and protect the jewel shards at all costs. Also, she did not want the others to know that she is a half-breed. She has to somewhat convince InuYasha to keep it a secret and decided to give a little piece of herself. She was out of lies and the truth seem good at the moment." I want to become human, InuYasha. They aren't perfect but their imperfections and flaws are what make them amazing. My mother has good sides as well as bad. She was able to be herself and was liked by the villagers. Humans share many emotions and feelings. I would like to start over and experience that. I despise my demon nature, it's violent. I will like you to keep this a secret from the others, it's like once they find out that I'm a half-breed, from that very moment you are looked upon differently. As you know, half-breeds aren't supposed to exist. " She said.
The fire crackled as the flames began to wind down and there was a moment of silence.
" Get some sleep," InuYasha said and close his eyes. He took a deep breath and remember the unpleasant memories of his childhood that he wanted to erase. Soon more memories flooded his thoughts that he did not want to remember. He declares to himself that no matter what, he will become a full-fledge demon. He could relate to the half-breed but did not want to.
" Okay. Goodnight InuYasha." Kotori lay back down and turn to the side.
