"Why am I a full demon? Shouldn't I be a human like my mother?" The child asked the old woman.<br />
"Your mother was a priestess and indeed, she would have purified you. You could have been a human." The old woman whispered, closing her tired old brown eyes in thought.<br />
"But...why am I demon then?" The little boy questioned, odly colored eyes beaming at the old demon hunter.<br />
"Your mother must have worn the Shikon No Tama while birthing, and by doing this, granted your fathers wish of being a full demon, to you." Still with her still honey brown eyes closed, she could image the expression on the boys face.<br />
"Wh-where is my father?" The boy blurted out. The old demon hunter shook her head, disturbing her greying course hair. She did not want to be the one to tell the child, but who was left to tell? After a long tense silence, Sango told the bi-colored haired boy's wish to him.<br />
"Inuyasha is dead." |
