Disclaimer: My friend alikmionejean and I do not own either Percy Jackson or Inuyasha they both belong to their respective authors the only things I do own are some of the characters I made up in my own imagination but nothing else.
Inuyasha: (is walking next to Kagome as they continue their travels) Well today looks like it will be another long day of Chasing down Naraku's butt as always
Shippou: Yeah, and I'm hungry.
Miroku: yes I agree I would like something to eat how about we find a place to stay for the night as it is getting rather dark.
Inuyasha: And I'm sure your going to find a way to exorcise something in the biggest, richest place of the next village.
Miroku: well if it is neccessary to ensure the good of the village as well as keeping our group from starvation what do you care Inuyasha?
Sango: I don't mind, as long as you keep your hands to yourself!
Inuyasha: (stops in his tracks as he notices something odd in the gloom of the evening a strange man walking towards them (Zeus) and decides to be on his gaurd laying his hand on Tetsusaiga) everyone stay back I will handle this Kagome you stay with Miroku, Sango, and Shippo. I don't want you hurt
Kagome: (Noticing the thunder storm) No! I'm coming with you!
Inuyasha: I told you to stay I can handle this guy alone if he means harm to us but if not I don't want him to think we are dangerous ourselves
Kagome: NO! I need to go with you!
Inuyasha: Suit yourself Kagome but becareful. (approaches the stranger and tries to be as polite as he can be) excuse me sir but are you lost? may be we can be of assistance to you?
Kagome: *stays entirely silent, head bowed, but eyes on Zeus.*
Inuyasha: (is becoming impatient and uneasy) May we be of any assistance to you sir?
Zeus: No from you, hanyou. I require nothing.
Inuyasha: I see well then if there is nothing we can do to help you we will be on our way. Come along Kagome we can't keep the others waiting we will go back to them and turn aside to the nearby village and find a place to stay tonight.
Zeus: Kagome. It is my wish that you stay. The dog may go.
Inuyasha: (hears that then turns around for the first time feeling aggressive and unseaths the Tetsusaiga now convinced this man may mean harm to his Kagome) (but doesn't attack feeling it might only serve to hurt Kagome more if he attacks needlessly)
Kagome: I-uh-yes. Inuyasha, go back to the others. Now.
Inuyasha: Kagome this guy might work with Naraku in which case I will not leave you in such a danger. for though at the moment I smell no evil around this man it is possible for it to be masked.
Kagome: Trust me. He said you 'may' go. He was telling you to go away.
Inuyasha: and you think you can handle this guy alone if he turns out of be one of Naraku's followers?
Zeus: It is fine, I will proceed like he is not indeed here.
Kagome: I- okay.
Inuyasha: (sits down still trying to decipher the smell of this man who he suspects to be human or demon)
Kagome: *sinking into a bow* Father.
Zeus: my daughter it is wonderful to see you again. how have you been keeping? (assuming all fathers would wish to catch up alittle with their daughters.)
Kagome: *looking up* I've been keeping well. It's been awhile since I've trained... What brings you here?
Inuyasha: (is getting creeped out by they way they are talking and almost stiffens as if preparing to spring at this man but thinks better of it.)
Zeus: I have a job for you. *sighing* Will you please reassure your pet that I won't hurt you? His stiffness is annoying.
Inuyasha: I am not her pet. she and I journey together to defeat Naraku.
(has almost blown a serious gasket)
Kagome: *sighing, walks over to Inuyasha, and tries to pull him up to his feet* C'mon Inuyasha, stand up. He's not going to hurt you, and whatever fight you pick, he's going to win. *sighing again* What is your job?
Sango: (having gotten tired of waiting walks over and sees what could be deciphered as Kagome and inuyasha in danger so decides to attack first and ask questions later throws her Hiraikotsu) Hiraikotsu
Inuyasha: (turns around only just in time to duck under the giant boomerang as he mutters something about having told them to stay put)
Zeus: *raises his hand, and deflects the Hiraikotsu without even touching it* It seems your companions have no idea of the word obedience.
Inuyasha: Obviously not infact I am almost certain that the word aim is not in Sango's vocabulary either considering that if I had not ducked that would have given me the largest concussion ever.
Sango: is that the thanks I get for coming to the rescue of you and Kagome?
Kagome: Am I really so weak that everything must be about saving me, even if there is no real sign of danger? Is that all I can do?
Sango: Of Course not Kagome but Inuyasha is right this guy could be working with Naraku and therefore protecting you and inuyasha must be priority one. on all our lists.
Zeus: She does not need protecting from her father.
Sango: Her father?
Kagome: Yes. Do you see why I trust him now?
Inuyasha: I see then that was why you followed me you probably recognised him even from the distance we were at. (then looks alittle confused) but if this is your father then who is the man married to your mother?
Kagome: The man married to my mother is Sota's father. My real father was only with my mom one night. Not to mention that his wife hates me, since I'm not hers.*she has that look of innocence and thoughtfulness she gets sometimes*
Sango: O...K this is getting more confusing instead of less. mind clearing this up for us? (looks at Kagome's father)
Zeus: I am Zeus, King of the Gods. Kagome is my daughter, and she is also the child of Ms. Higurashi, whom I assume you've met, half-demon. I stayed with her for one night, before she was married, and thus, Kagome. I have been married for a long time, but my wife- er...
Kagome: She knows you're the biggest womanizer in the history of the world?
Zeus: Right. Well, Ms. Higurashi, got married and had a son with her new husband. And my wife doesn't necessarily... enjoy the children as a result of these - er - affairs.
Inuyasha: so to put it into laymans terms Kagome is alot like me a half-breed. accepted by neither side of their heritage.
Kagome: I am too accepted! My stepmom just hates my guts... But regular people like me! And I'm sure they still would, even if I did tell them! They would put me in a madhouse, but they'd still come to visit!
Sango: Kagome I am sure inuyasha didn't mean for that to be an insult but you must remember he has none of your luck your father is at least still alive to tell you that he cares even though he probably doesn't say it very often. and while you can be your self with other people you can understand where inuyasha is coming from considering how humans and demons view his kind. he would assume that all half-breeds are the same.
Kagome: True. Not to mention people of this time are outwardly more prejudiced... At home all I've got to deal with are hateful popular girls at school. Anyway, you said you had a job for me, dad?
Zeus: yes but perhaps we should wait for your other friends to join us so that we spare me the interruptions.
Kagome: You're right... Shippo-chan! Miroku-sama! Come here!
Miroku: (running as if all of Naraku's forces were after him) Kagome, Inuyasha, Sango... There is a Swarm of Naraku's poisonous insects heading this way which means we should probbably find a secluded place for now unless we want our deaths. I pulled as many of them into my windtunnel as I could with out killing myself. (slumps to the ground)
Kagome: Father, what now?
Inuyasha: (sees the insects already heading towards them) Kagome you, Sango, and shippo get your father to safety I will stay behind and deal with the insects then I will grab miroku and follow you. (expecting that Kagome will listen to him turns his back and then digs his nails into his flesh and attacks the insects) Blades of blood!
(however the insects dodge and keep heading towards inuyasha)
Zeus: *waves his hand, and electricity zaps them all* Die, vermin! (well, in my mind, he would've said it in Greek, but I haven't got the chance to translate)
Inuyasha: how did you do that?
Kagome: Inuyasha, he's a god. More specifically, the god of Lightning, the skies, and King of all of the other gods. He can do these things.
Inuyasha: well Kagome I thought I told you and sango and shippo to get your dad some where safe but since the trouble seems to have passed for now let's all of us get under cover before more of those buggers come. (lifts up Miroku determined to carry him alone)
Kagome: Do you expect an immortal to need somewhere safe? Father, what do you plan to do for the night?
Miroku: (weakly) I don't think we have time to chit chat where one swarm is another will arise. let's find a nice tree to sleep under for now Kagome at least for to night your father may shelter with us if it is his desire.
Inuyasha: stay still miroku. I will head back a few miles and meet up with Jinenji and see if he has any spare herbs to rid you of the poison.
(lays miroku under a tree where they can camp for the night as he stands up and prepares to leave)
Kagome: I'll be staying, unless you tell me otherwise, Dad.
Inuyasha: you will be staying here no matter what it is far to dangerous for you to be roaming around at night. even if your father is the god of the skies and what not. you would no doubt be picked off by the first full fledged demon that came past you. (runs off to jinenji's farm)
Kagome: Alright, alright. Is that okay with you, Dad? I don't want to make you angry...
Zeus: why is it that the Hanyou feels so protective of you?
Kagome: Er... *blushing* I think he's in love with me... Well, at least I'd hope so by now... And, besides, last time he was with someone like me, she died. Not to mention he is a dog demon.
Sango: It also doesn't hurt that she is the only person who accepts him. with the exception of me, Miroku, and Shippo Kagome is the only one who accepts him.
Zeus: I see. I think I will need to monitor him.
Sango: my question is why do you seem to view inuyasha as a threat?
Kagome: He's a dad. Dad's are protective. Once, my stepdad offered to kill this other guy, Hojo, who had a crush on me, if he ever betrayed me, even though we weren't together.
Sango: (rolls her eyes) even my father was never that over protective.
Kagome: Well, in my time, since everything is a bit more dangerous, with dating in particular, dads often threaten to hurt a guy if he hurts us emotionally. The threats are always empty though. It's like I'm a princess, who can't be married off.
Miroku: (still rather weak manages to move himself towards Kagome and begins stroking her rear like he alway does) ah yes the love a father has for his daughter.
Kagome: Ah! Daddy, smite him!
Sango: Kagome how long is it going to be before you get use to Miroku. he could be almost six feet under and still be extremely lecherous
Kagome: Well, yeah towards you! But you do have a point.
Inuyasha: (returns using some of the speed he has and is carrying an armfull of the herb that Jinenji had given him. but himself looks much worse the wear) here we are now. this should be enough to last us a while.
Kagome: Inuyasha, rest. Sango and I will take care of his healing.
Inuyasha: Sango can take care of miroku but you need sleep as do you sir. (looks politely at Zeus) I will stand guard tonight.
Zeus: You almost look worse than that lecher over there *nods at Miroku*, and I think I'm perfectly capable of "guard duty".
Inuyasha: thank you sir for your concern but I have been worse than this. these are mere scratches. my only problem was on my way back I had the bad luck to cross my brother's path.
Sango: (looks up from treating miroku's injury knowing that Sesshomaru is dangerous and has no love for his little brother.) I hope he didn't follow you here.
Kagome: Inuyasha, my dad can handle things! Sesshomaru might not like you, but he hasn't come around to fight in a while, has he?
Inuyasha: I just ran into him. as I was coming back here so it is possible that he might come here to fight me again. who knows. and I would feel bad leaving your father to face him alone. After all his venom claws are no laughing matter.
Zeus: *scoffing very Inuyasha like* Please, I can handle a measly demon on my own.
Sango: you are starting to sound alot like Inuyasha. If I didn't know any better I would say that you fathered inuyasha rather than Kagome. (is looking at zeus trying not to laugh at how his scoff had sounded like something inuyasha had done often)
Kagome: *giggling* yeah. Have you been watching me like a stalker, on Hephaestus TV?
Shippo: Kagome how do we know that your father didn't lay with Inuyasha's mother before Inutaisho did and that Inuyasha came from that union?
Kagome: Would Inuyasha have his ears?
Shippo: he might be only one third demon. who is to know.
Inuyasha: (as injured as he is gets up and walks over to Shippo and hits him on the head.) That was the dumbest statement you ever made shippo.
Kagome: I hate to agree, but Inuyasha's right.
Sesshomaru: well hello little brother. (is walking towards Inuyasha) and here I had thought you had been intelligent enough to fly further I suppose I over estimated you again. but at least this gives me the chance to fight you again.
Inuyasha: (stands up again despite his injuries) come on then I thought fighting entailed weapons not words.
Zeus: Kagome, how do you fair with weapons?
Kagome: I am pretty good with Bows and Arrows. Sango has her boomerang and miroku has his windtunnel and his staff and shippo has his fox magic. and of course inuyasha has his sword
Zeus: I am interested in what you can do. Show me.
Inuyasha: Kagome Show your father your skill by shooting the tree but stay out of my fight. this is between me and Sessohmaru.
Kagome: I wasn't going to... I just wish you wouldn't, not when you're hurt. *pulls out bow and arrow, then marks the tree, then shoots*
Inuyasha: (draws the Tetsusaiga) come at me brother if you are brave enough to attack me.
Sesshomaru: Again, too slow *attacks with his sword*.
Inuyasha: (dodges the attack just barely and counters with the Tetsusaiga) Wind Scar!
Sesshomaru: *does his attack (Dragon Strike) after dodging as well*
Inuyasha: (can't move out of the way fast enough and gets hit and is thrown back a few feet but decides to try again)
Sesshomaru: *still dodges and then attacks again*
Inuyasha: (hits the ground but once more struggles to his feet looking almost more dead than alive. and puts his sword away now getting desperate claws at his own flesh covering his claws with his blood) Blades of Blood!
Sesshomaru: *Doesn't expect it and gets hit*
Sesshomaru: *attacks, less effective from shock*
Sango: ( seeing that inuyasha might not be able to make another attack in his condition takes it upon herself to come to his defense since it is Clear that Zeus is to engrossed watching Kagome's skill in the bow)
Sesshomaru: *gets badly injured from the Hiraikotsu*
Sango: I would suggest you run while you can Sesshomaru I went easy on you so back off when both of you are more strong then if you want you can try to kill eachother if Kagome will let you.
Inuyasha: *nodding, knowing he's about to die* Thanks, Sango.
Sango: your welcome Inuyasha. next time think before leaping into these problems. now lie still while I attend your wounds.
Kagome: *finally realizing what happened* Inuyasha! *runs to him*
Sesshomaru: I will run but not yet Demon Slayer it would make my victory over my brother more wonderful if as he lays dying he knows his girl falls with him. (smirks) Venom Claws. (sends the attack heading right for Kagome)
Zeus: *suddenly, he puts out his hand, and a barrier erupts over them, blocking Kagome from the attack*
Zeus: Don't harm my daughter.
Sesshomaru: Who are you to interfere? some pitiful little human man.
Then you can watch your child mourn the fall of the Half demon she cared so much about if that is the kind of cruel human you are. (leaves)
Zeus: Kagome, do you have any healing supplies from Half-Blood training?
Kagome: yes they are in my back pack.
Zeus: Get them, and tend to your hanyou. You won't like it if he dies, will you?
Miroku: and here I thought you hated Inuyasha almost as much as Sesshomaru does. (watches as Kagome obeys her father) (had then looked in Zeus's direction)
Zeus: I do not hate him, I was merely cautious. I am merely protective.
Kagome: (is tending to Inuyasha and soon calls over to Sango) Sango please come here we need bandage him up tight so as to prevent more bleeding.
Sango: Of course.
Shippo: are the medicines that would work on half breeds that are common of a union between god and humans safe for use on a half breed of demon and human?
(is looking from Zeus to Kagome wondering which one would answer)
Zeus: This is mild, it heals flesh, specifics do not apply, as with some. If she made him drink nectar, he would most definitely have turned into ash by now.
Miroku: in which case you might have wanted to be develop some warning labels for some of your medicines.
Zeus: We have. They're in Greek, so most people can't read them. However, my children and my brethren's children, can.
Sango: (stands up) Well Kagome and I have done all we can to help him only time will tell now but the next few hours are most critical if he survives the night it will be a safe bet that he will be alright . we will watch over him in shifts I will take the first shift, then Kagome, then Shippo, Zeus you have had a tiring day you there for your shift if you wish to take it will come very last closest to dawn.
