The full moon’s cold light washed over the meadow, leaching the demonic energy from Hoshiko’s veins and leaving her mortal flesh exposed and trembling. Nearby, the night shattered with the violent music of battle — the scrape of steel, guttural roars, shouted commands. She knew the voices: Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kagome, locked in combat against the lupine terror Rōyakan. Hidden behind a curtain of shadow and tall grass, Hoshiko let out a quiet, frustrated sigh, her back pressed against the solid trunk of an ancient tree. She watched, her golden eyes narrowed, as her own brothers fought on, utterly unaware that their sister was witnessing their struggle from just a few yards away.
