I do not own Inuyasha. Sadly, I do not own Inuyasha himself either. :'( drat!
"Is this her, Naraku?" Several dark figures stood outside of an old shrine, shrouded by blackness.
"Yes, Kagura," a man's voice floated through the inky blackness; it was cold and harsh. "It is her. It is the witch, Kagome Higurashi. She is the one we have been after."
"Kagome Higurashi, age 16. Occupation: Witch." Another voice, a woman's, spoke.
"I knew that, Kanna," Kagura said, a little irritated. "Naraku," Kagura turned to the man standing beside her, "Why don't we just go in and take her now?"
"Kagura," Naraku almost laughed, "She is a witch. She knows how to protect her own house. It would be foolish to assume we could walk in without permission."
"I guess you're right," Kagura admitted, reluctantly. Kagura turned to her pale female companion. "Kanna, tell me more about this witch-girl."
"She is alone in her house," Kanna recited in her usual, flat tone. "She has never attended school as is customary for children of her age. She has…" Kanna paused, "companion who, as are all witches' companions, bound to her."
"Companion?" Kagura inquired, "Oooh, so she's got a black cat or a warty toad or somethin'?"
"A leopard." Kanna corrected.
"Leopard?" Kagura exclaimed.
"Come." Naraku's voice drifted through the darkness. "Let us go."
