Chapter One – The Beginning

It was a cold winter's day in Japan and every rouge youkai was trying its best to find some decent shelter and food. A young teenage Inuyoukai looked out from her bedroom window from the Palace of the West and sighed as she watched the said youkai fight over a dead squirrel "Pathetic" She scowled under her breath "Why bicker over something so small when they could devour each other?" She continued to watch the youkai a little longer until there was a knock on her door "Come in" The door slid open slightly as a little imp cowered in and bowed to his mistress

"My Princess your father has requested you to meet him down in the throne room in 5 minutes"

"Understood" She said as she stood "Thank you Jaken you may leave" The imp bowed once again and retreated whilst closing the door behind him. The teenager stood from her windowsill, walked over to her wardrobe and opened it to reveal many fine Fighting tunics, Combat uniforms, kimonos and dresses. She pulled out one of her kimonos and slipped it on, it was dark blue with a golden obi that matched her boots. She then walked over to her mirror and studied her features for anything that should not be on her person. She had snowy pale skin, golden eyes that were protected with thick black eyelashes, crimson blood lips and long black straight hair that reached her waistline. When she was satisfied she looked presentable she left her bedroom and proceeded to the throne room.

When she entered the throne room all of the royal messengers, servants, guards and advisers bowed lowly to her as she walked gracefully past them. She continued her way down the red carpet until she met the throne where a tall silver haired Inuyoukai sat, she kneeled in front of him and lowered her head in respect "You wished to see me father?" The silver haired youkai stood and descended the small flight of steps where his daughter was

"Rise" She did so and met her father's gaze "I have a mission for you my daughter"

"I will do what you ask father"

"I want you to go to the South where a village in the middle of a place called Inuyasha's forest is and seek a miko called Kaede, tell her that I have sent you and that you are there to pick up the elixir I requested"

"Yes father but may I ask why you have not sent any of your messengers to do so?"

"The elixir is rare and is desired by many, if another youkai obtains it there will be no way to stop it without another elixir that hasn't been seen for over a century. My messengers may get killed whereas you are strong enough to defeat anyone or thing in your path"

"What is this elixir exactly? And if it is so dangerous why did the miko create it?"

"The elixir has been known to give a human, hanyou or youkai the strength of a God, the miko did not create it only found it. She contacted me not too long ago and said it would only be safe in my hands. It cannot be destroyed so therefore it shall be hidden in the Chamber of Mysteries"

"I see, I shall do as you request" He placed his hand on her shoulder and handed her a sword

"I do not expect you to fail me Jade, the West will be too dangerous for you to return by yourself. Go to Totosai's and I shall meet you there"

"Yes father" She then bowed and ran out of the throne room, from the palace and headed South

"Sesshoumaru" Another youkai in silver said as he stepped forward "Why did you send her when you could have gone yourself?"

"We both know why father"

"Still avoiding her then?" Inutaisho sighed "I shall be at Totosai's if you need me, I kind of broke Sounga..."

"Again?" Sesshoumaru mused as he raised an eyebrow

"Yeah" He guilty nodded...

Jade walked through the deep snow with the two headed dragon AhUn who she had taken with her and was grateful that she was wearing her winter boots and kimono, she had just left the Western Lands and was still making her way South "The snow is too thick" She said to AhUn "I cannot fly but you can, if you find that I am not too heavy could you carry me to the South?" Since she possessed animal instincts she could understand AhUn's grumbling 'Of course my Lady but must I remind you that you are not a heavy child' She smirked "Must I always remind you that I am not a child?" AhUn gave her a face with showed he was amused and let Jade climb on behind 'Hold on my Princess' And with that they flew South.

It took about two hours but they eventually arrived at Inuyasha's forest, they landed by an ancient well that held a strange aura "Do you sense that aura AhUn?" He nodded "Be careful, I do not trust this land" AhUn did not feel the need to put his guard up as he knew one person lived here and would not harm the Princess. They continued to walk through the forest until they came upon a large flight of steps "AhUn wait here, I shall be back shortly" AhUn bowed and the Prince climbed the long flight of steps.

When she finally reached the top she came face to face with a lot of human villages who seemed to back away from her 'Father did not say the village was full of only humans' She took a step forward and lifted her arms "I mean you no harm, I am seeking a miko called Kaede" An old looking villager stepped out an bowed

"I shall take you to our Lady young one" Jade nodded and followed the old villager to a hut, he knocked it and stepped back slightly "Lady Kaede, a young youkai is here to see you"

"Send her in" 'How does she know I'm female is she has not seen me?' Jade did not like this at all but still she thanked the villager and entered the hut. Inside she found an old miko who she assumed was Kaede and a group or humans and youkai. There was a human girl in a slayer's outfit, a monk, a teenage kitsune perhaps only a few years older than she, a neko youkai, an Inu hanyou and a woman wearing a weird looking outfit who looked strangely familiar "What can I do for ye?" Kaede asked as she approached Jade "Please sit child" Jade gave a short bow and kneeled "Ye must be chilled from the cold air, would ye like some soup"

"Thank you but I don't eat human food but it is appreciated" She bowed her head "I've come here on business of my father..."

"I have the elixir here" She smiled as she passed Jade the bottle "Protect that with thy life"

"How do you know I'm the daughter of..." She was interrupted once again

"You resemble him child" She replied "I knew he would not come himself and I suspected he'd send ye"

"I see, how do you know my father?"

"Let's be honest who doesn't" Kaede smiled

"Hey Kaede who is this girl?" The hanyou in red asked "How do you know a Inuyoukai?"

"Never mind Inuyasha, it does not matter who she is or how I know her" Inuyasha then growled

"Tell me you old hag"

"Half breed" Jade growled as she stood "Do you not know how to speak to a woman? Respect others wiser than you"

"Be quiet you insolent brat" Inuyasha barked

"Or what?" She smirked. Inuyasha looked at her smug features and felt unnerved, why did she remind him of someone he'd rather forget

"I'll kill you if you do not shut up"

"Inuyasha" The woman in strange clothes snapped "Leave her alone"

"Shut up Kagome"

"Insulting yet another woman, can you not even insult a man or are you too much of a coward?"

"Right that's it, you're dead" Inuyasha then unsheathed Tetsusaiga and aimed it at her

"Inuyasha she is only a child" Miroku snapped as he stood

"Inuyasha Miroku is right" Sango said as she also stood "Youkai or not she is still a child"

"Feh I don't care, come on kid, me, you outside now!"

"I will not disturb the home of innocent villagers so that you can try to kill me"

"Child" Jade then looked down to Kaede as they both stood "Do not fight Inuyasha, I know you're very strong but he has a sword that can kill 100 youkai in a single swing"

"I will not run Lady Kaede, but I will remove myself from here so that none of your villagers will be harmed" She then turned to Inuyasha "I don't think it is fair to use such a sword" She then lifted her hand as a blue glow erupted from it and purified the sword, causing it to transform back to its original state

"How can you have the power of a miko?" Inuyasha gapped "You're a full youkai"

"Both of her parents are very strong Inuyasha, her mother was human but somehow Princess Jade was born a youkai and not a hanyou" Kaede explained

"She's a Princess?" Inuyasha gapped

"You knew my mother?" Jade gasped "She was human?"

"I know you mother" She corrected "Did your father not tell you about her?"

"He doesn't like to" She replied sadly "What was she like?"

"Hey kid we're supposed to be fighting, I don't care that you're a Princess. I'll still kill you" He then lashed out and slit her face before she could react, she fell over with blood streaming down her cheek

"SIT" Kagome snapped "You pig" Kagome kneeled beside her "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine" She then stood and was about to attack when there were shouts outside

"Hey isn't that Prince Sesshoumaru's dragon AhUn?"

"Yes it is, I wonder why he is here?"

"Until next time half breed" Jade said as she ran out of the hut with the elixir tucked safely away in her kimono, she ran up to AhUn and mounted him just as Inuyasha and the gang ran out of the hut

"Why is Sesshoumaru's pet with her?"

"Kaede" Kagome turned to the old woman "Is she Sesshoumaru's?"

"Yes child" Kaede sighed. Kagome turned back to where Jade was and found her gone

"Inuyasha did you hear that?"

"Yeah" He replied "You want answers Kagome? Then we'll go see Totosai, we all know how close he is to my family and that he can let things slip" And with that the gang made their way to Totosai's...

Jade was on AhUn flying to Totosai's and was receiving lectures from the old dragon 'My lady you should not challenge Inuyasha, when your father finds that wound on your face he will not be pleased'

"I understand that AhUn but the half breed had it coming" They landed outside Totosai's cave and Jade jumped off AhUn "Totosai are you here?" The old man came out of his cave with Inutaisho following closely behind "Grandfather? What are you doing here?"

"I may have accidentally broke Sounga...again" Jade smirked at her grandfather and walked over to them "Did you managed to obtain the elixir without any problems?"

"I got it but I ran into a half...I mean a hanyou called Inuyasha" She knew her grandfather detested the word half breed "He attacked me"

"I can see" He kneeled in front of his granddaughter and examined her face "It's a clean cut, your father shall be able to heal that when he gets here" Jade nodded and turned to Totosai

"Totosai is it alright if I stay here until my father arrives?"

"Of course Princess" Totosai smiled "You may go do whatever you wish, there are some swords in the cave that you can play with"

"Thanks" She then ran into the cave and began to look at Totosai's collection whilst Inutaisho approached AhUn

"Status report AhUn" AhUn told Inutaisho of how he felt Jade was taken a while and went to see her only to find that Kaede had revealed some information about her mother and how Inuyasha and the gang reacted to it 'Your highness what if she starts asking the Prince again?' "Then he will have to answer her, it is about time he spoke to her about her mother" Just as he said this there could be shouting heard

"YO TOTOSAI" Inutaisho, AhUn and Totosai looked to the hill that was to be climbed to reach the cave and saw Inuyasha and Co. walking up it

"Oh crap" Totosai croaked. Inuyasha and Co. neared them and gave a short bot to Inutaisho

"Hey dad" Inutaisho nodded to him son "So can you or Totosai tell me about Sesshoumaru, has he got a kid?"

"Yes Inuyasha he has"

"Who is the mother?"

"His mate of course"

"And who is that?"

"Inuyasha I am not discussing Sesshoumaru's personal life with you, if you want to know I suggest you ask him" Jade then came out of the cave swinging one of Totosai's swords when she saw Inuyasha

"What are you doing here?" She growled as she approached them and stood beside Inutaisho

"Be calm my granddaughter"

"But grandfather this half breed attacked me" Inutaisho then turned to her and growled

"Do not speak those words in front of me again" Jade just huffed and folded her arms, she was so much alike her father

"Fine scold me instead of killing that thing for attacking me, I'm sure father will have something to say" Just as she said that Sesshoumaru landed beside Totosai and narrowed his eyes when he saw Inuyasha

"Jade come here" She obeyed and backed away from the gang and to her father "Why is there blood on your face?"

"That hanyou attacked me" She growled "Grandfather seems to not care either otherwise he would already be dead by now"

"Inuyasha explain, why did you harm my pup?" Inuyasha turned to him and frowned

"She challenged me, I only accepted in fighting her"

"Yes I may have challenged you but you caught me when I was talking to Lady Kaede, you caught me off guard"

"You should never turn your back when you're in battle"

"Who do you think you are to talk to me like that?" Sesshoumaru pulled his daughter behind him and unsheathed his sword

"Inuyasha I shall see to it that you understand that you will not harm my pup without consequence" He then approached Inuyasha as the hanyou unsheathed his own sword that was back to its original self

"Come on then Sesshoumaru" Inuyasha smirked "WINDSCAR"

"Inuyasha NO" Inutaisho snapped "Jade is standing behind him" The blast came closer to Sesshoumaru who merely sliced it in half

"Dragon Strike" Sesshoumaru sent his attack towards Inuyasha who succeeded in getting thrown back down the hill. Sesshoumaru sheathed his sword and turned to Jade "Come we're leaving" She nodded and walked over to him, he then lifted her into his arms and began to fly back to the Western Palace "If you ever see Inuyasha again I want you to keep your distance"

"I understand but who is he?"

"My half brother" Jade then gapped

"He's my uncle?"

"Half" He corrected "He is a disgrace to our family"

"Because he's a half demon?"

"I used to think that, but not now. He just has a disgusting attitude and treats people terribly, if your grandfather brings him back to the palace with him I'll kill him and Inuyasha"

"Is he really strong then?"

"He is for a hanyou but I think if you two had a fair fight you'd win"

"Obviously" She smiled "I am the daughter of the great Prince Sesshoumaru" She nuzzled his neck and cuddled close to him "The winter air is getting colder by the day"

"I agree, soon we will have to stop leaving the palace until spring comes" They landed outside the palace of the Western Lands and were greeted by head guard Monomaru

"Welcome back your highnesses, I trust you journey was pleasant" Sesshoumaru let Jade on her feet who went on into the palace "You look troubled my lord"

"Jade met her mother today but didn't even know it was her"

"Oh my" Monomaru gasped "I'm sure she didn't cause that wound on her face"

"No that was Inuyasha, let me know when my father has returned" And with that Sesshoumaru entered his palace to find a 24 year old Rin fussing his pup

"Oh Jade what happened to your face, were you attacked by a youkai?" Sesshoumaru smiled at Rin's affection, the two girls treated each other like sister but sometimes Rin would made a mother like figure for the girl. Sesshoumaru approached them and extended his hand

"Come here Jade, I shall heal your wound" Jade took his hand and moved to him, he then placed his hand upon her cheek and it began to glow gold. When he removed his hand the wound was gone and her cheek was blood free

"Thank you father" He then kissed her forehead and ruffled her hair

"You and Rin go play in the garden, I shall see you both at dinner"

"Yes father/Prince Sesshoumaru" The girls bowed. They then ran off to the garden just like they did when they were infants. Sesshoumaru on the other hand went to his study and went about signing some scrolls. Jade and Rin sat under a tree and began to made some daisy chains as there was nothing else to do

"Hey Rin" Jade began "What was my mother like?" Rin sighed and looked up at her little sister

"Jade I have told you many times that Prince Sesshoumaru has forbidden me from speaking of her"

"Fine" She sighed as she leaned back against the tree "Just answer me one thing, was she pretty?"

"Beautiful" Rin smiled "You look a lot like her" Jade smiled and hugged Rin. Suddenly Jaken ran into the garden huffing and puffing...
