Nobody’s Hanyou
Elegantly kicking her hiraikotsu through the clear wall, she watched as it landed obediently where she had expected.

Leaping through the large hole of her former, -now collapsing- glass chamber, she gracefully landed right on top of her favored youkai bone, ultimately avoiding the jagged shards her bare feet risked touching.

Sango stepped down and picked up her oversized boomerang, clearing a path for her battle stance by sweeping the debris to the side with her feet.

Glancing up, with fierce determination set in her cherry red eyes, she began to rapidly spin her hiraikotsu, faster and faster, until the anxiety of her kill overwhelmed her patience.

Jumping high into the air she tilted her weapon, and in a downwards arc, let it fly. Hitting the ground in a large crash, the youkai bone rolled forward, leaving floor tile and slow-demon debris in its wake, rapidly spinning until it slowed to a halt directly in front of its target, grabbing the attention of the youkai in question, as she had planned.

Hiraikotsu wasn’t good enough for this demon… the swift death after one slice of the oversized boomerang was too good for the damnable creature. The blade of her sword deserved the exclusive privilege of insuring a slow excruciating death.

Everyday since that night (when she got cursed), she had to be kept secluded, with nobody to hold or comfort her. she was so… alone, and she was purely pissed.

She had been so deprived, prejudiced, and abandoned! and who was there to realize her misery?

Nobody.

They were all too busy distancing themselves and closing doors to notice the suffering she was forced to endure. She hated it! She hated him! That bastard youkai who placed this cruel curse upon her fragile heart.

As a slayer she was raised as a self-sacrificing protector, to be tough in will and power. It was second nature, always giving never taking. That’s why she even had this curse, because she sacrificed herself in place of her father!

All her life she had to think of others before herself, saving others prior to her own safety. Her world revolved around the comfort of others, because people depended on her ‘strength.’

She always walked by herself because people thought she preferred the seclusion. They all thought she didn’t need them because she was soo fierce and capable. They thought she was some sort of selfless deity, who had no equal in human society. Nobody approached her because they all thought she was ‘better’ than them.

They thought and thought and thought…. But still weren’t THINKING!

She could still bleed to death; she could still catch a cold in the rain! She was just a human! Was it a human characteristic to be weak? Was she labeled otherwise because she was ‘strong?’

She had feelings too! Was nobody capable of giving her the time of day to ask if she was ok?

They thought and assumed and walked away thinking they knew it all, while she stood watching them leave, dying a little more inside.

Now, for every waking moment she had been in that living hell EMPHASIZED by that fucking curse, she would repay it “1,000” times over to the youkai stupid enough to mess with her.

Once hiraikotsu had stopped its deadly tracks, the demon had already stood in full attention at the threat on his life.

Pushing the large boomerang aside, (which took some effort) the scorpion demon followed the line of debris straight to a young girl, who looked furious.

The youkai had seen it all, and knew exactly who she was by the telltale kanji at her throat and the overpowering scent of roses.

Acknowledging the demon’s attentiveness, the slayer finally found her voice.

“Why aren’t you dead?” she asked in a very strong yet eerily calm tone, shifting her stance to get a better glare.

The whole hall fell silent, all interested in this dramatic play, unraveling before their very eyes.

Laughing dauntingly at the stupid slayer, the scorpion demon crossed his arms and looked to the ceiling in thought.

“ahh the slayer returns… and here I thought you would never show your face in public, knowing fully well what could happen, and who you could hurt.” It replied, vines shifting ever moment or so.

Holding her katana in a death grip, she stepped forward, not caring about the shards piercing her delicate feet.

“Answer my question demon.” She spat, angry that the youkai dare mock her.

“Your father thought he killed me, but the vines that seeped into the ground absorbed my blood and regenerated my body.” He replied, sounding as if the explanation was troublesome.

Mild surprise flashed over the slayers angry features.

“What are you talking about...” she asked in pure confusion, how had a demon, had been able to do such a feat... it was truely rare.

"I thought you were a slayer, girl, a demon expert... hah! guess you wouldn't even know about my kind." he replied, now anxiously awaiting if the girl was really clueless as she now seemed.

"yes i know... ive never seen a demon as vile as you.. you sure are one of a kind" she retorted, gripping the katana even tighter, one more foul word would obliterate any mercy she had left.

The demon took on an impatient look, then decided to fill her in.

“My father was pure blood scorpion, and my mother… was a forest nymph.”

Gasps were heard in the audience, and Sango too, had to take a quick inhalation of the new information.

Forest nymphs were never known to have such relations, or being public for any matter. Although they were beautiful creatures with power over plant life and earth, they were rarely seen mingling among demons, especially the vicious scorpion type, but his story seemed true, evident by the snaking vines around his torso. But it didn't make sense... scorpion demons are known to be excessivly ruthless, and to be rutted with one of earths most beautifl creatures. Was it Love? well love makes fools of us all.

‘Since when was there a hybrid of his kind?’ she asked herself, getting back to the topic at hand, confused that his powers of toxins and plants were given by an odd matched couple. Catching the surprised look from the information he shared, the demon smiled, knowing of another way to catch the girl off guard.

“Yes, your father was surprised too…” the hybrid began, officially catching the attention of the now scared little girl before him.

Sango opened her eyes wide with the thousands of scenarios involving the demon and her father... what if something had happened to him! she gluped a little, strong facad now fading.

“When I popped right out of the ground… and showed him my powers… at least he died knowing that his daughter would join him shortly after.” the youkai finished, smiling devilishly at wide eyed slayer.

Murmurs were heard throughout the hall, each demon appalled at what the other had accomplished, the common comment being…

‘if that’s the case, surely, that demon would die’
