Kagome climbed out of the well. She pulled her bike out after her.
"Whew," She gasped wiping the sweat from her forehead, "I've been gone for days...I hope Inu-yasha isn't too mad at me."
"THERE YOU ARE!" A familiar voice yelled. Kagome looked up. Inu-yasha, followed by Shippo, Miroku, and Sango, stormed up to her.
"Where the hell were you?!" Inu-yasha demanded.
"I had my final exam." She sighed, "But don't worry. Now that summer's here I can spend more time in this era."
"You'd better. Well, let's go."
"Go where?"
"We have a lead on one of the jewel shards." Miroku explained, "There's a lord in a nearby village who's been acting strangely. His people think he's possessed by a demon."
"And where there's a demon there's usually a jewel fragment involved." Sango said smiling.
Kagome rode on her bike. Sango and Shippo rode on Kirara. Inu-yasha and Miroku ran up ahead.
"How far away is this village anyway?" Kagome called.
"Not too far!" Shippo called back, "We'll have to cut through a forest up ahead. And then we'll-,"
But he was cut off by a loud screech. A huge eagle-like creature flew from a nearby cluster of trees. It was covered in emerald green feathers. Its feet were more like paws than talons. Golden rings dangled from around its paws. It swooped down at Kagome and knocked her off her bike. She landed on the dirt path with a thud. The bird circled overhead ready to swoop down and strike again.
"IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER!" Inu-yasha yelled jumping into the air and swiping at the creature. It dodged the attack and vanished in a flash of green light.
"What in the seven hells was that?!" He yelled.
"Lady Kagome! Are you alright?" Miroku cried running over to them. Inu-yasha had landed near Kagome and Shippo and Sango had gotten off Kirara and were checking to see if she was all right.
"I think I'm okay," She gasped, "But what was that thing?'
"It looked like some sort of demon. But I've never seen one like that before." Sango said helping her up.
"And you'll never see one like it again!" A voice yelled, "Because you'll be dead soon!"
Somebody jumped down from a tree and landed in front of them.
It was a beautiful young girl about the age of 15. She had soft brown hair that hung down to her shoulders and emerald green eyes. She wore a long brown cloak that hung down to the ground. It had a hood but she wasn't wearing it. The sleeves were long and stopped just at the wrists. She had an odd silver ring on her left hand.
She smirked at them. "Now give me your jewel shards!" She commanded.
Inu-yasha glared at her. "I'd die before I hand them over!"
The girl cracked her knuckles and reached into her cloak. "Have it your way then."
She pulled out two daggers connected by a long chain. She held one dagger in each hand.
Inu-yasha lunged at her. Suddenly she flung one of her daggers at him. It missed him but it severed several strands of his silver hair. She yanked on the chain. The dagger flew back into her hand.
"Why you little..." Inu-yasha growled. He dove at her but she jumped and did a flip over his head and landed behind Kagome. In the blink of an eye the girl yanked the chain holding Kagome's jewel shard off her neck. The girl held up the shard and smiled.
"GIVE THAT BACK!' Inu-yasha roared. He slashed at her and struck her in the chest making a deep gash. She grabbed her chest in pain and glared at him.
"This is not something a demon should possess. I'll just take it with me!"
There was a flash of light and she vanished.
"Was that a demon?" Shippo asked in awe.
"No," Inu-yasha snarled, "She was a human."
"She got away with the shard! That little thief!" Kagome cried.
"She was a fine-looking girl though." Miroku remarked smiling.
"There was something familiar about her scent," Inu-yasha thought out loud, "Something weird...NEVER MIND! She's got our shard! Now let's go get her!"
Kagome climbed out of the well. She pulled her bike out after her.
"Whew," She gasped wiping the sweat from her forehead, "I've been gone for days...I hope Inu-yasha isn't too mad at me."
