Chapter 1: X-Men or Hanyou?


February 15 1995, 3:15 AM

He was regaining consciousness slowly. He ached everywhere, his head was pounding as if an evil leprechaun was hammering it, his muscled body hurt all over as if he had run a hundred kilome, hi, his ears had a painful high tone echoing in them that made him wince and he was dizzy from the disgusting odor of the mixed substances that his nose so strongly could smell. He slowly opened his eyes, looking his surroundings. The lab was a mess; everything was tear apart and broken. ‘Shit, Totosai is going to have my head for this. What the fuck happened here?’ And then he remembered.

“...They have been murdered..... I am sorry..... We believe him to be Naraku...”

“No, this is a dream, just a dream, or better said a fucking nightmare...” He whispered, for his head hurt too much for him to talk loud. Something moving to his left snapped him back; he turned his eyes to the figure and saw Zoltan prodding his head from beneath the desk. “Zoltan... Come here boy.” The dog growled in return. That shocked Inuyasha, he had never growled at him, to anyone for that matter, in a threaten manner before, what was the dog’s problem? He stood on wobbly legs and walked carefully towards the white dog only to stop when Zoltan gave another warning growl and before he could stop himself Inuyasha growled in return, reacting instinctively. When he realized what he was doing he stopped the sound.

“Ok, what the fuck is going on here? Why are you growling at me, you stupid dog? Don’t you recognize your own master?” Just as he finisthe the last question he caught a glimpse of silver. Looking down to discover what it was a lock of his hair fell over his shoulder, but it wasn’t the color he was expecting. It was silver white and much longer than his normal black raven hair.

“Aaagh! What the fuck happened to my hair?” As he desperately looked for a piece of glass so he could see himself, he realized that there wasn’t any left. “Shit!” He cursed as he strolled towards the door at the far corner of the lab. It was a small toilette, but it still had a mirror in it. As he opened the door and lit on the light he closed his eyes, they hurt and besides he wasn’t sure if he wanted to see what the reflection would show. ‘Alright, calm down you ass, it’s just you... And apparently your new silver hair... Nothing else, so get a fucking grip.’ He took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

“Holly shit! What the hell happened to me? I’m a... a... a beast. What kind of thing... Creature am I?” He asked outloud as he examined his new self. And it wasn’t only his hair, his eyes had also changed, turning from a purple color to an unusual but beautiful shade of gold, his ears had turned into a pair of furry pointed doggie like ears and have moved to the top of his head and not to forget of his new fangs and claws.

“I am a freak... Not even my dog likes me...” But as he finished that, Zoltan was at his side looking at him, as if analyzing him, to suddenly give a whine and nuzzle his hand as if wanting forgiveness for not recognizing his master before. Inuyasha scratched him gently behind the ears with his newfound claws as he took a deep breath, inhaling Zoltan’s scent.

“You smell buddy, we should bathe you.” He said and chuckled when he heard Zoltan giving a doggie like snort. “I don’t know how Mom never said anyth-” His eyes turned sad as he remembered his parents weren’t amongst him anymore. “At least they are together, right, Zolt?” He sadly asked using the nickname he had given him in his childhood. He received another whine and nuzzle as reply. Inuyasha let out a sigh while thinking about his parents. “Well, I am not going to think about that now. I need to know what I am going to do about my new freaky looks but I can’t think straight now. I’m gonna call Miroku, he will know what to do and will help me out and even if he can’t I need to talk to him, to somebody...” With that he stepped out of the small toilette and head for the desk where he knew the phone was, only to see that the machine had also suffer his rage and was broken into pieces.

“This is just great, how the fuck I am suppose to call Miroku if I tore the fucking phone apart?” He said as another thought came to his mind. ‘What time is it?’ He looked down at his left wrist to see if his watch was still there and miraculously it was. It read 3:30. ‘I’ve been out that long? Well this means no one is coming anytime soon, so I can go to the next door lab and use that phone.’ He thought as he walked out of the destroyed lab to the one next door. It was locked but he soon found that with his strange appearance also came an inhuman strength as the door easily opened when he turned the knob and pushed against it, the only inconvenient being that the lock was broken now. ‘Oh well, compare to the lab this is nothing...’ He thought stepping in.

Other thing that he discovered as soon as he stepped into the lab was that he could see pretty damn well in the dark, so with no need of switching on the lights he walked straight to the phone. He picked it up and dialed his best friend’s number not fearing to wake up any adult for his friend lived alone. He waited impatiently as it ringed and was rewarded after the fifth ring.

“Who ever you are, this better be good.” Responded a sleepy voice a little bit loud for Inuyasha’s newfound super hearing.

“Shit Miroku! Don’t yell like that!” He said as he put the earphone far away from him. As he neared it again he felt stupid, it had to be a funny sight to see him with the phone at his side when his ears where on top of his head and not to the sides of his face. But non-the less, he place it there, realizing he could hear perfectly fine.

“Yash? Is that you man? What are you doing calling this late? What time is it anyway?”

“Three-thirty.”

“Three-thirty? Are you insane? I have a test tomorrow Yash! This better not be some thing about one of your experiments ‘cause if it is-”

“My parents have been killed.” He interrupted his friend abruptly only to receive silence from the other side of the line. “Miro? Are you still there?”“Are“Are you fucking with me Yash? Because if you are it’s not funny.” He said in a serious voice, now completely awake.

“You think I would tease with something like that? Who the fuck do you take me for?” He yelled at his friend.

“I am sorry it’s just I... I... I don’t know what to say. I am sorry Inuyasha, they were good people, they deserved better. Is there anything you need me for; that I can help you with? Do you want me to come over?”

“Actually, I need your help. I... I had an accident in the lab and I really need your brain and maybe your knowledge for this. So could you please come as fast as you can to the lab?”

“Certainly. I’ll be there in no time. Wait for me.”

“Ok, I’ll see you in a couple of minutes.” Inuyasha said.

“Alright, bye.”

“Bye... Wait!”

“Yes?”

“... Thank you.” He said softly.

“You don’t even have to say it, my friend. I’ll be there in a bit. Bye.”

“I’ll be here, bye.” And with that he hung up the phone. He turned to Zoltan and said: “Well, all we have to do now is wait.”

Twenty minutes later Inuyasha heard the elevator doors open and footsteps nearing the lab. He had gone back to the destroyed lab to wait for Miroku and fix some of the mess, and was now sitting on the floor facing the closed door. The lights were off so he could warn Miroku before he looked at him; he then heard the doorknob turn and the door being pushed open. A tall figure appeared at the door’s frame with the hall light at his back.

“Yash? Are you here?”

“I am here.”

“Why are the lights off?”

“First I want to warn you.”

“Warn me? About what?” Miroku asked. This was really strange. ‘What’s going on in here?’

“I don’t look the same as I did. I’ve changed, I don’t know why, the only possible answer that occurred to me is that all the toxics in here entered my organism and alternated it, but I am not sure.” To that followed a minute of silence. As the minute pass and Miroku still didn’t say a word, Inuyasha, never a patient man, said: “Are you ready to see me?”

A loud gulp could be heard from the man still standing at the door’s frame.

“I think so...” Came the not so sure answer.

“I’m gonna turn the lights on now, ok?” And before he had time to answer Inuyasha switched on the lights. A laud gasp and a whispered “Jesus Christ.” were all the responses he got from his friend.

The tall, black haired, violet-eyed man could not believe his eyes. Inuyasha was... Well he was not sure what but it was certainly not a human. Being a fan of ancient history he had consumed a lot of books and heard stories about demons, half-demons, priests, priestesses and their fights. Demons and half-demons with strange animals features and powers, and priests and priestesses that had amazing purifying powers all mixed in a eternal battle since the beginning of times. Of course those were all bedtime stories for children but it fascinated him, you could still see Shinto priests and priestesses, though not very usually, in old shrines and such but they no longer held that mythical power history talked about.

Minutes passed without any of them saying a word, they were staring at each other, one in awe the other one with nervousness.

“Well?” Inuyasha nervously asked.

“I don’t know what to say...” Miroku said as he shook his head in amazement.

“I need your help Miroku, I can’t go around looking like this. I’m a freak!”

“Ok, ok, lets just calm down and think, alright?” Miroku said as he stared at Inuyasha again, trailing off.

That got to Inuyasha that already felt self-conscious. “Keh. Would you stop staring at me?”

Miroku snapped back of his thoughts and blinked. “Hmm? Oh, sorry. I was just thinking... You know... You really look like one of the demons of the ancient tales, or half demon telling by the looks, a hanyou.”

“What? What are you saying? That I’m a fucking demon? Could you be serious, this is not some sort of game.”

“A hanyou, a half-demon.” Miroku corrected him. “And I am being serious.”

“Whatever! Is the same fucking thing! Full, half, what difference does it make. I need to know what I am going to do about this, how am I supposed to hide this things?” He said as he tugged his ears with his hands.

“Ok. Lets think. How did this happen?”

“You think I know? If I did I wouldn’t have called you.”

“I meant, what were you doing before you-” Miroku stopped; he didn’t want to remember his friend what had happened with his parents.

“It’s okay.” He said in a sad tone. “I had some time to think while waiting for you, and... And I know they wouldn’t want me to mope around and want for me to be happy, and I know that they are together where ever they are.”

Miroku held back from hugging his friend knowing it would make him uncomfortable. Instead he approached him and put a hand on his shoulder giving him a light squeeze. The small gesture was both comforting and understanding. He knew what Inuyasha was feeling, he had been there; he had lost both his parents in a car accident two years before. Luckily for him the Kawamotos had been there for him, supporting him and making him part of their small family. ‘And now they have been murdered by a crazed man. I don’t understand how life can be so unfair.’ He grimly thought.

“I know they are together Yash, not even death could separate them.” With that said, they both became uncomfortable and Miroku cleared his throat as his grip on Inuyasha’s shoulder slipped. He stepped back and looked at Inuyasha. “Well then, what was it you were doing before the news?”

“I was trying to make a tonic to get rid of those annoying fleas Zoltan seems to enjoy so.” He said as he looked down at the dog, which only gave a doggie yawn and laid down at his master’s feet.

“That doesn’t explain much... Did any of the other substances have anything belonging to an animal? A cat or a dog telling by your ears.”

“Well... I did use some of Zoltan’s blood to see if I could find a mix that could make him expel the antidote through the skin and for it not to be repelled by the lymphocytes and rest of white cells in his system.”

“Did any of the substances in the lab enter your organism? I mean by inhaling or by your blood system, orally perhaps?”

“Yes, I cut my hand with the tube that held Zoltan’s blood mix and I am pretty sure that the gases of the other toxics made me faint. There were many radioactive liquids in here that mixed could produce a miasma... And after that, I fainted... Maybe that is what happened?”

“Maybe. Maybe both things combined, you know... The blood and the gases. We should see your blood, to figure out what happened.”

“Yes, but the microscope is broken.”

“I can see that.” He said as he looked at the broken gadget. “But what about the other lab?”

“Right. Sorry I am not thinking very clear, my head is still spinning around.”

“It’ okay. You know I am the smart one.” Miroku said teasing him as they walked towards the lab.

“Keh. Yeah right.” Inuyasha answered back, smirking. Just to try something he took a deep breath and smiled at his idea. “You know Miroku, you really smell.”

“Excuse me?” Miroku asked offended.

“Well, I found that with my freaky aspect also comes strength and an amazing sense of hearing and smelling. I can recognize Zoltan’s scent, yours and mine, and I have to say that you smell worst than Zolt.” He said as he walked by a dumbfounded Miroku and entered the lab.

“You are kidding right? Right? Please tell me you are kidding.” Miroku said in a desperate voice.

“Keh! You really are an idiot Miro.” Inuyasha said as he rolled his eyes.

“Come on Inuyasha, you know I am a ladies man, and I can’t go around smelling! Tell me, do I really smell? So that’s why they always escape from me when they see me approaching.”

“No, you don’t smell, but you should have seen your face when I told you, you did.” Inuyasha said as he smiled. “And they escape from you not because you smell but because you are a pervert that doesn’t respect them.”

“Well what can I say, it’s a gift I was born with.” Miroku answered making Inuyasha raised his eyes to the ceiling. “Good to know I don’t smell.” Miroku said with a relieved sigh. “So... What do I smell like?”

“What?” He asked looking at Miroku as if he had grown another head.

“I said-”

“I heard what you said, but I am not telling you how you smell. Jesus... Why would you ask another guy how do you smell like? What are you gay now?”

“No I am not homosexual, but it’s always interesting to find out how you smell. So... How do I smell?”

“You are a really weird man Miroku, have I ever told you that?”

“Mmm, yes a couple of times. But stop avoiding the question, just answer me.”

“You smell... Clean. Ok? Now drop it.” He said as he neared the microscope and pinched his forefinger to let a drop of blood fall into the glass.

“Ok, ok, you don’t have to be so touchy about it, you started it after all so I don’t’ kno-” He stopped when Inuyasha threw him a look that said ‘shut the fuck up or I’ll pound you till death’. He raised his hands in a peace sign and said: “Ok, I’ll shut up. So? What did you find?”

“I haven’t looked yet.” He said as he bent down and focused the lens to have a clear view. What he saw shocked him beyond words. He raised his eyes and looked at Miroku. “This is impossible... The red cells… They have nucleuses…”

“Ok, and that is important why?” Miroku asked with a confused look.

“Miroku, humans don’t have nucleus in their red cells, only animal ones do. From all the animals only pigs have the most similar type of red cells than we do.”

“So… You are saying that your blood isn’t human anymore? That you have animal blood?”

“Yeah… Maybe.” Inuyasha said as he looked to his hand. He gasped when he saw his finger was already healed from the cut. “They are reproducing in an incredible speed. Look at this,” he said showing Miroku his finger. “It’s already healed. The white cells have a much faster mitosis than the normal ones.”

“Mitosis…”

“Yes. You know… The normal division of a nucleus into two identical daughter nuclei by a process of duplication and separation of chromosomes, so maintaining the diploid condition…and that way reproducing it’s number.”

“Ok, you wanna tell me in Japanese now please? I am a history nerd not a science one.”

“Is the division of cleucleus with the chromosomes splitting lengthwise…” When he saw Miroku’s face he sighed. “Is when a cell splits itself in half, dividing it’s information in equal parts, thus creating two twin cells with the same amount of chromosomes each. That is how they reproduce. You know… We learned this in seventh grade…”

“Well I must have been absent that day. So... You heal faster than me. What does that mean?”

“I don’t know. But is obvious that my organism has changed... I think that Zoltan’s blood combined to the radioactive substances entered my body thus alternating my DNA. Even though it is very strange for that to happen, nearly impossible.”

“Wow! Wait a minute, your DNA? You are saying you are like a... like an x-men? Like wolverine?”

“Well you certainly have defined it better than I could ever have... But I think so... The radioactive toxics added to the dog blood mutate my DNA, there’s no other explanation for my looks and developed senses.”

“Ok, I think you just bumped your head when you fainted. You can’t be serious. Maybe it’s just a passing thing...” He said as they walked back to the destroyed lab.

“I don’t think so Miro... What am I going to do? I can’t live among people looking like this, how will I ever have a normal life?”

“Well, we’ll just have to find a way to hide your demonic features.”

“Will you stop it with the demon thing alre”
”

“Why? You certainly look like and have the powers that a hanyou is said to have in the stories... I may not know of science and biology but I know of history. Maybe if we go to a Shinto priest or priestess and asked them they might know something.”

“Keh. You're kidding right? They are normal people Miroku, they don’t have those spiritual powers your legends tell of. And besides, didn’t they purify demons? I for one wouldn’t like to be purified if it so happens to be that I am a hanyou or whatever you called it, thank you very much.”

“Well then, what do you propose? And if they have no power as you say then what’s the harm in it? I know a priestess that might be able to help us.”

“Miroku I-” But he couldn’t finish for Miroku interrupted him.

“Inuyasha. Do you have a better idea? No, you don’t, so lets just go and see Kaede and be done with it. We already have nothing to loose and much to gain if she can help.”

With a tired sigh Inuyasha gave in. He was tired both physically and mentally; he couldn’t fight Miroku’s logic or at least not that moment. “Fine. When can we go? It has to be as soon as possible, ‘cause I can’t nor want to spend more time looking like this.”

“We’ll go right know. I am sure she wont mind, she is a really nice person.”

“Ok, lets go. One more thing.” He said as he collected his things, that were discarded around the room.

“Yes?” Miroku asked as he was readying himself to go. He hadn’t bring much just his winter jacket that was hanging at the wall.

“Can I stay at your place for some time? I don’t really want to-”

“You are welcome for as long as you’d like, my friend.” He said interrupting him.

“I’ll even share the rent with you.” Inuyasha said smirking as he looked down to his hands that were grabbing his jacket. ‘Well, this thing is completely ruined. Where is my backpack?’ He thought as he dropped the jacket and began searching for the backpack, which he found underneath the table, miraculously, untouched.

“Of course you will, what did you think? It was going to be for free?” Miroku said with a smile.

“Keh.” He put his backpack and they walked towards the elevator followed closely by Zoltan. They were going to find a cure... Or at least a way to hide his ‘demonic features’ as Miroku so bluntly put it, no matter what. They had to, if not... How would he ever have a normal life?

“Thank you...” He said in a low voice.

“You are welcome. We’ll find a cure Yash, don’t worry. We’ll find a way, I know we will.” With that they moved to Miroku’s parked car and started off towards the south.

‘I sure hope so, Miroku, I really hope you are right.’


February 15, 2004

The sun began to appear at the horizon on the snowy Sunday morning, flooding a dark room through the balcony’s French windows with it’s light. The silence in the room was complete only disrupted by the sound of someone’s calm breathing; A dark haired man sleeping on a king size bed with tangled black silk sheets, that were only covering from his hips downwards, leaving a well toned bare chest with nothing else but some strange dark purple collar beads to the view. Suddenly there was a noise on the opposite side of the room, a figure was nearing the bed, it’s shadow drawing an enormous shape on the white wall showing as the creature, all in fours, prepared to pounce on the unprotected man sleeping on bed.
But what the creature didn’t realize was that the man was no ordinary one and his senses were far better than any normal human being, for that, when it jumped trying to surprise it’s victim the black haired man was already wide awake and out of the bed grabbing the creature and pinning it to the bed.

The strange man growled, purple eyes narrowing as he neared his face towards the creature’s one only to receive a friendly lick on his right cheek. The man let out a chuckle as he stared down at the creature.

“Zoltan... When will you give up? You cannot surprise me as you did before the accident. Just give it a rest will you?” He said as he let go of the dog and began stretching his sleep numb muscles. With twenty-six years old, his 6’2 and only wearing a pair of gray Calvin Klein boxers, Inuyasha Kawamoto could have been one of the models of a boxer campaign, his long black hair falling down almost reaching his broad shoulders, his well toned abs, that begged for a woman to slide her hands up and down, his long muscled legs that could trap a woman in between and a face that Adonis himself would envy, he made all his female students go crazy, that couldn’t understand or believe why that this man was single. What they didn’t know was his his profile of a calm Tokyo University professor was a façade and his real life was too dangerous to have a relationship with someone and he wouldn’t take the chance of risking anybody’s life or the fact that he had already suffered from a heartbreak and didn’t have the intention of repeating that mistake again.

The only reply he got from the canine was a bark and a stare, this was an old game they had been playing for years now but since it’s master had that accident nine years ago, Zoltan wasn’t able to catch his owner off guard, but non the less, it was funny to wake the man this early in the morning, for he was not a morning person. The man chuckled again while shaking his head.

“I am going to take a shower and then I’ll make breakfast, ok?” He said as he took a glance at the clock on his night table. “God damn! It’s only six in the fucking morning! And on a Sunday! I oughta starve you. You better have a good fucking reason to have woken me on a Sunday morning.” He growled as he walked outside the bedroom towards the bathroom door.

The apartment was not very big but it was more than enough for a single man a his dog, consisting in a living/dining room that was the first thing you saw entering the apartment, it had two halls, the one on the left was short and it led to the kitchen and the one on the right, the longest, led to the bathroom and far ahead turning left of it, a wall with two doors in it coul see seen. The two bedrooms. The main one that was his was the left door and the guest room was the right one. As he entered the bathroom he closed the door and turned on the hot water. After a forty-five minute shower he stepped out with a towel wrapped around his hips, he went to his room to get dress. He chose a pair of jeans and a red T-shirt, and after brushing his hair and tied it in a low ponytail he left for the kitchen, with Zoltan on his heels.

The kitchen was fairly big, to the right you had a bar that could be use as table or to prepare the food, it was open so you could see the living room, and to the left you had the fridge, oven, washbasin and dishwasher. Pushing the swing door open Inuyasha entered the kitchen and after feeding Zoltan he began cooking some scrambled eggs and bacon for himself. He moved to sit on the bar and switched on the small kitchen TV to watch the news, he was in the middle of swallowing his food when he heard the newsman speak.

“... Nine years since the murder of one of Tokyo’s most famous detective couple, killed in cold blood by the infamous Naraku, and like every year for this date Tokyo criminals seem to have banished in the mist not showing their faces as if this villain wanted to commemorate their death making it some kind of holiday. Well, it occurs to me that we should thank the Kawamoto couple for-” The TV went off.

“Stupid news reporter! What the fuck does he know!” He said furious. Then he remembered the news and calmed down. “Today is fifteen, how could I’ve forgotten?” He whispered to himself, as he turned to the dog. “You knew didn’t you, my friend? That’s why you woke me up this early.” He asked Zoltan as the dog approached him and nuzzled his hand. He sighed as he began to scratch Zoltan behind his ears. “Well then, you know what we’ll do. We’ll go visit them as we do every year, wont we buddy?” Zoltan let out a bark. “Ok then, come on, lets get ready.” He stood up and walked out towards his room where he put a pair of socks, tennis shoes and a black sweater. He walked to the front door and opened the closet’s door, to his left, and took his black scarf, gloves and leather jacket. All dress now, he was ready to go, with Zoltan next to him he left his apartment.

As he drove to the graveyard his mind was flooded with flashbacks of that fatal night nine years ago.

***Flashback***

“This is Captain Myoga. There has been a…” The man stopped as if he couldn’t bring himself to say what he had call for. By that time Inuyasha didn’t give a fuck about politeness, he would make sure to apologize later.

“A what? What the fuck is going on? Something happened to my parents?”

“They have been murdered.” The man blurted out brusquely.

“No...” Came the whisper. He couldn’t believe it, they were okay, his father was strong he always protected his mother, nothing happened to them, nothing. “You are lying.” He said to the man on the other side of the line with conviction. “They retired they can’t be dead, they don’t work anymore! You are lying! You stupid bastard, you don’t know shit! My father would never let anything like that happen to my mother.” He yelled at the captain as he broke down in sobs, tears falling down his cheeks, his whole body trembling as he spoke, this time coming as a whispered plead. “Please…Please, tell me you are lying… Please…”

“I am sorry…”

He didn’t hear the rest of the captain’s words as his world crumbled, crashing down in a second. His loving parents… Dead. ‘No! Why? Why? They never did anything to anyone. They were good people! It’s not fair; it’s so not fucking fair! Who would do such thing!?’ As that question popped his head he heard the captains last words: “…but we believe him to be Naraku. The murderer left a white orchid on the crime scene, which is Naraku’s most common gift to his victims.”

“Naraku…” He said in a low voice, hate seeping out every pore of his body. Without another word to the captain, he smashed the phone against the table breaking it. He needed to let out his grieve. With a loud cry he threw his chair through the window, broke with his hands every and each one of the tubes that contained chemicals without caring that the mix of them could create lethal gases or liquids. He didn’t care; his parent’s were dead. Dead Dead Dead. His heart pounded in sync with his thoughts. He approached the table he had been working on and began to destroy everything in it. He noticed too late that his hand was cut and the tube that held Zoltan’s blood with the radioactive chemical merged with his own blood, entering his circulation system. By that time the chemical substances in the room, spilled from their containers, and the room’s heater created a heavy fog that made Inuyasha, already dizzy from the blood loss and the mix of substances that had entered his organism, fall in the middle of that noxious miasma.

“ Mom, Dad… I’m coming.” With that whispered promise he lost consciousness.


***End Flashback***


Inuyasha tightened his grip on the car’s wheel. He was going to nail that bastard no matter what, even if it cost him his own life. He was going to get his revenge.


A/N: I know this was pretty boring, but I had to tell it because if not I don’t have a plot. Anyway next chapter Inu gets to know his new neighbor, and have a good sniff of her enticing scent… What will happen when they meet?
