"AAAAAAAGGGHHHH! Help! Demon!"

Kagome had been walking on a dusty dirt road with the rest of her crew when they heard a mans voice calling for help. She turned around, her face full of worry for the man, images of large demons attacking un-armed men for no reason appeared in her mind.

" Inuyasha! did you hear that?"

she asked, forgetting Inuyasha's hanyou senses. " Of coarse i heard it! who do you take me for? Miroku?"

came his annoyed response. Miroku was too busy attempting to grope Songo's ass to reply with a good come-back. All he said was "VICTORY!"

as he clutched the prized possession in his hand.

'victory' was something that was to be only said in his head, but when he heard his name, his reply was the only thing on his a prompt 'donk' (which is the sound of haraikotsu hitting a head filled with unholy and lecherous thoughts) did Kagome speak again.

"Lets go!" she shouted and startled Inuyasha (who had been picking a splinter out of his hand) by jumping in his back.

The sudden movement of this slammed Inuyasha's claw into his hand, removing both the splinter and a chunk of his hand.

" You little.." he began but was cut off by a persistent Kagome's impatience."Keh." he muttered.

It took the duo less than a minute to arrive, and they found a large rock to hide behind.

A man was cowering in font of an airy looking demon with blood dripping from its sharp claws.

This man -whom Kagome had determined to be very ugly- was covered in scratches and cuts. None of these wounds were very deep or serious, but they looked very painful.

Just what had this man done to anger such a large demon? And why did the demon look almost transparent?

Kagome figured that she did not have enough time to ponder these questions.

Inuyasha sensed Kagome's unease. She seemed to be pondering something, but trying to figure that out made Inuyasha's brain hurt.

When she started to move from their hiding place Inuyasha pushed her face into the soft dirt. She glared at Inuyasha and brushed the dirt off of her face.

"Inuyasha! si..."

he furiously clamped a hand over her mouth before she could mutter the dreaded word 'sit'. he pointed at the demon, who was looking around.

It had obviously sensed movement and was looking for the source of the sound. Kagome noticed something strange about the demon - it was darker at the middle.

"Aha!" Kagome jumped up, clearly decided that this demon had tortured the ugly man long enough.

"The dark part must be the most vulnerable point!"

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. What was she basing that logic on? Before he could ask she shot a purifying arrow strait at the dark mass in the middle of the demon. The arrow seemed to shriek as it whizzed through the air. It hit the mark.

AAAAAARRRGGGHHHHH!
