I was re-watching InuYasha episodes yesterday and I had an interesting idea for a challenge based on the Shikon no Tama. The prompts are up to your interpretation and you can use them in any way you see fit. This is an open challenge, so take your time.

Rules:
1. You must create a new story for this challenge.
2. It can be a drabble series, a chapter story, a one-shot collection, or a fanart.
3. The number of chapters or fanarts must be 4 in total.
4. There is no word count, time limit, or prompt order.
5. It can be of any rating, but please mention if it’s rated M or MA.

Post your entries when you are done along with the story title and each chapter’s title, so I can add them on the banners. Below are examples of what the banners will look like.

Feel free to ask any questions on the rules. Have fun writing!

MISS STELLA!!!
You torture me, you know thay, don't you?

Oh goodness...
It's a good thing I've only got 4 more prompts for the Latin Challenge.

Okay. Question.

Do you have to have 4 for each prompt or one for each prompt, totaling to 4?

One prompt per chapter in whatever order you like, Asami-chan!

Okay, thanks!

Hold on. One more question:

Do they have to be interconnected?

It's totally your choice whether you wish to write an interconnected story or stand alone one-shots, but if they are one-shots then they have to belong to the same collection.

Awesome!
I'll start on this after I finish the Latin Challenge

You don't need to add the rating if it isn't rated M or MA. Also, you can post them one by one as you write them or post the complete batch when you finish. Again, it's up to you. Happy writings!

Looks fun! I think I'll have to attempt this at some point

Yup, totally doing this tonight instead of homework---I mean after homework...yeah...>.> <.<

Welcome to the Shikon Challenge, SesshysRose, Missy! There is no time limit, so take your time.

I do have a couple of questions, can this be combined with another challenge, and two are there going to be more prompts later on or is this it?

You must create a story spanning 4 chapters, each based on one of the given prompts: courage, friendship, wisdom, love. The order doesn't matter, but the story needs to be complete. I'm sorry, but for this challenge you're not allowed to combine prompts from other challenges. It has to be a story written specifically for the Shikon no Tama challenge. ):

Oh that's fine love, I was just curious more or less.

Prompt: Friendship
Rating: T

I'm glad it's not a problem. (:
However, the title is too long to fit in the banner. Hm, I'll try a different font and see how it goes for now.

For the banner you could just put My soul would be nothing...

Oh, that helps a lot, Missy!! Tanku!

Congrats on your first entry, Missy! Here are your banners! Now, excuse me as I go read it!

I'm almost done with my hiatus and I have a new story in the works. It won't be ready for a while but I plan to have it up by the end of the year and I think it'll be perfect for this challenge!

Thank you very much Stella! I had a lot of fun writing it and I hope you liked how it turned out

They can be drabbles, right?

Yup, anything goes as long as it's compiled in one story.
