So I've been working on this fiction while on my hiatus, and its a test story, to see how it goes over, let me know how it is!
Disclaimer: As per usual, I do not own Inuyasha or Yu Yu Hakusho, I just like to write about them
Kagome took a deep breath as her fingers flew across the keys of her keyboard, typing up her term paper. Brown hues scanned the bright screen and she wiped the sweat off of her brow, chewing on her bottom lip. She had finally talked Inuyasha into letting her go home for a few days.
Of course, he bitched and whined until she sat him and informed him that she could go home when she wanted and he could do nothing to stop her from going.
Hunting for the shards was becoming more difficult. It took approximately two weeks to find a shard now; which brought them closer to the impending confrontation with Naraku.
Koga was hanging around a lot more with his pack to aide them in preparing for the final battle. He was also training her in speed. Inuyasha was NOT pleased when Kagome decided she was tired of being a liability and constantly needing to be saved.
She, of course, got her way. Miroku was helping her hone her spiritual abilities; Kaede was helping her with archery, as well as her miko training. Sango was training her with hand-to-hand combat, endurance and strength. Inuyasha refused to train her with swords, so she hoped she would be able to get Sesshomaru to help with that aspect.
Feeling frustrated, she saved the document and stood from her chair to crawl into her bed. Her grandfather had a dojo built for her to practice in and her mother surprised her with a gym membership when she came home yesterday. A yawn escaped her lips and her eyes slipped shut slowly.
"Toddler, why are we here? I hope you didn't wake me up just so we can watch you suck on that dumb pacifier of yours," Yusuke growled out. Hiei smirked and agreed silently, he had been in the middle of relaxing as well.
"There has been a convergence of holy power," Koenma paused to bring up a map that had a red circle around a shrine. "In this area, it had been very dull until yesterday where it spiked tremendously and hasn't gone down yet," he continued.
Kurama raised an eyebrow, "meaning that this can potentially be dangerous, I was under the impression that holy energy encompasses shrines," he spoke smoothly, not conveying the curiosity coursing through him. "Well, yes, and it's normally not dangerous at all, but for the sake of the census and accuracy of the files here in Reikai, I need this to be checked out thoroughly and reported back to me," Koenma said.
"Therefore, tomorrow morning, take a tour of the shrine, there should be no danger for Hiei or Kurama because mikos with actual power come few and far between and their power is dormant as well as untapped, you are dismissed," Koenma waved them off without leaving room for further questioning.
"Kagome! We're going to need you to take care of the shrine and do the scheduled tours while we're away at Souta's soccer tournament in Beijing!" Her mother, Suni, called out to her.
"You got it mom! Drive Safely!" she waved goodbye to them as they boarded the bus. "Great, I have to wear miko garb," the 18 year-old huffed. "Let's see what's on the schedule today," brown hues scanned the clipboard, "tour at 10 and then an archery demonstration, then the same at 2," she mumbled and glanced at the clock.
Her eyes widened, "Yikes! It's already 9:30!" She exclaimed and rushed around to get ready for the first tour.
"You just had to schedule the 10 o'clock tour with the elementary school, didn't you?" Yusuke huffed out, annoyed as they climbed the steps. "Yes, Yusuke, the 2 o'clock was already full," Kurama answered. Yusuke growled again, "why do shrines have to have so many steps," he complained. "Urameshi's right, there are more steps here than Genkai's," Kuwabara chimed in.
"Both of you stop your incessant complaining, we're at the top now," Hiei sighed, everything going quiet when a young girl walked out to greet them. Yusuke whistled quietly, "damn, she's hot," he stated. Kurama's back stiffened as he took in her aura.
"Hiei…her miko power is definitely not dormant, be on your guard," Kurama warned Hiei in his mind. Hiei nodded to let him know that he got the message.
Kagome took a deep breath as she walked outside, her back stiffened as she sensed the auras of demons. Her eyes quickly scanned the group, seeing a group of four boys in the back. She would keep her eye on those four.
"Welcome to Higurashi Shrine! I am Kagome, a resident shrine maiden and my grandfather is the priest, unfortunately he will not be here today so you'll just have to deal with me," she laughed. "The main points of the tour will include the well house, the Goshinboku tree, the dojo, the main building and lastly I will be doing an archery demonstration for the kids and whoever else may want to see," she said.
Kagome stiffened again when she felt an aura brushing against hers, her eyes darted to the red-eyed male in the back, and he was trying to read her mind. She put a wall over her mind and then pasted a bright, cheery smile on her face.
Back with the boys, Hiei growled when Kagome blocked him out. "Is there something wrong, Hiei?" Kurama asked as he listened to the female give her tour. "She blocked out my probe, she is definitely aware of demons," he whispered, his red eyes staring at her back as she answered questions and showed people around the shrine.
"Very peculiar, Koenma would like to know this, I am assuming she is the source of the convergence that Koenma spotted," he said to the other boys who were too busy staring at Kagome's ass to give a damn.
Yusuke was the first to snap out of it, followed by Kuwabara. "Her aura is strong guys, really strong, I can see it swirling around her," Kuwabara said as quietly as he could. Kurama's interest strengthened, as well as Yoko's. "I assume we will be questioning her later then," he said, his eyes flashing gold.
The tour finally got to the dojo where the targets were for the archery demonstration. "Defining moment, guys," Yusuke muttered under his breath. "Hiei doubts she is a trained miko, those died out centuries ago," Kurama whispered. "I don't know guys, the energy swirling around the tip of that arrow is intense," Kuwabara said as quietly as possible, gulping visibly.
The four stood tersely, watching her release the arrow and watching it imbed directly in the center. Kagome looked at the target and inwardly congratulated herself for hitting the middle of the target. "Could you re-demonstrate, I'm afraid we missed it," the redhead in the back said. Kagome sighed inaudibly and nodded.
She strung up another arrow and let it loose. Gasps were collective around the crowd. "That concludes our tour, make your way through to the exit, there are gift bags waiting for everyone," she gave a bow and walked to the target where her second arrow split the first down the middle.
Soon, the shrine was empty except for 4 people, but she'd expected it. "I figured you 4 would have questions, I do not want to fight," she told them without turning.
"You're pretty foolish to have your back to us, girl," Hiei growled, his hand on the hilt of his sword. "No, I'm just not nervous because, if I wanted to, I could purify your ass to Timbuktu before you could draw your sword, hybrid," she stated.
The other three went rigid, all watching Hiei. The apparition snarled, drawing his sword and rushing at her. In just a few moments, Hiei was pinned to a tree behind them with an arrow in his shoulder. Their eyes snapped to Kagome who was lowering her bow.
"Now, if the rest of you want to be civil, I'd rather not desecrate my shrine," she said. "You can let him down, there is purification in the arrow," she nodded her head towards him and Kuwabara walked up to Hiei, pulling the arrow out of him.
"How about some tea and I'll heal that shoulder," Kagome sighed. Kurama was the first to speak, "that would be lovely, Kagome." Hiei growled, but obliged as he and the others followed Kagome in the house.
