The Life of Yomi
A Life in the Dark

Preface

For those that have followed my work knows that is a story that I have been itching to write for some time now. This is the elaborated version of the life of Yomi as read in my crossovers with Inuyasha: Night and Moon, a Tale of Two Lives where this tale is abridged and in Saharah, where parts of Yomi’s past are mentioned and at times briefly explored. This here is the real story in depth and full the Life of Yomi. This story however is NOT a crossover; therefore any unavoidable mention of Sesshomaru or his father and their race will be issued as GCs (guest characters) and or avoided all together. Names and credit will not be mentioned.

Note: I’m sure upon reading this first chapter that it comes off as more an original fiction than as fan fiction. Well because so little is known about Yomi’s past and life that this story will have an all around AU feel. I just wanted to make a note to the reader that in this work Ishiiha, the character issued in this chapter is the mother of Yomi. She is OC but an important character to this work regardless. I decided to start the story...

Chapter 2

“Stranger explain yourself, why do you barge in unannounced into a person’s home?”

A icy chill rose up Kagome’s spine chilling her to the bone. This was Kikyo that was addressing her, she should be the one saying this to her, why are you here… leave, you no longer live here your dead go… her thought ended there.

“But Kikyo it’s me Kagome, remember Inuyasha…”

“So you know Inuyasha do you?” the priestess asserted, cutting her off in mid speech.

What? Kagome had the urge to speak out when from behind a second familiar voice entered the hut, one she knew perhaps even better then she knew her own. It was Inuyasha.

The Third Mirror

Chapter 1

“Ok bye!” Kagome jumps down the well, saying good bye to her mother, grandfather and little brother Sota, as she always did before crossing through time to the Feudal Age of Japan. It was a staggering jump, but with experience and the use of much personal discipline had accustomed her and remained unfazed as she softly drifted to the bottom of the well, safely landing 500 years in the past.

Looking up the top of the well now filled with sunlight and creeping ivy and vines was twenty feet above her. Again with her experience as her aid she climbed out with little trouble, Inuyasha will greet me, I bet he’ll complain why I took so long to return first thing, he always does that. She thought, as she took a firm hold of the vines and climbed her way to the surface.

It took more than half a day for her to convince him to let her return home for her exams. As usual he complained and resisted until giving in once she got mad. She was gone only four days, not a month or a year, but patience was not one of Inuyasha’s stronger virtues. He was a half-demon with a heart, this she knew despite the...
