Silver Dawn

A Startling Start

"Yawn.....hey Kagome, how much longer until we reach the next village? We've been walking for hours!" The silver-haired half demon complained as he and his group trodded along a dirt road beside a field of grass. He was obviously annoyed, and walked with his arms crossed across his chest. "Just be patient, would you? Geez, you always complain."Kagome said, with a slightly irritated voice."It's not much farther. We should be there in about fifteen minutes." "Well that's good. I'm starting to get blisters on my blisters!"Inuyasha suddenly looked upwards and sniffed the air."What's wrong Inuyasha?" Sango, the demon hunter asked with a worried expression in her voice. "Demons. A whole lot of them. And they're coming from..."he said as he pointed at a hill with an old village rested on top of it"there." Miroku ran in that direction."Well let's go!" "Yeah."

As the group started running, an explosion was heard from the village. "We'd better get there, and fast!" Once they reached the village, they saw everything in flames, and many villagers running and screaming for their lives as a hoard of demons chased after them. "Well that's peachy. Time to kick some butt!" Inuyasha exclaimed while drawing the sword that was latched onto his belt. Then, he slashed at the demons, and they let out a horrid cry as they disappeared into dust blown away by the wind.

"What happened here?" Kagome asked as the last of the demons were......um.....'exterminated' from the village." "D-d-demons! Thousands of them!" "YEAH WE CAN SEE THAT OLD MAN!!!!!" Inuyasha popped a vein. "Hey! Don't be so mean! And what got you into that ugly mood?" Kagome said, angered. "....I'm catching a whiff of Naraku. Not much, but it's definitely there. Except...." "Except what?" "Well....I can't explain it, but it seems like.......he just vanished off the face of the earth...." Miroku and Sango walked over. "Well, doesn't he always disappear before we know how?" Miroku asked questionably. "Yeah, but it's....different somehow..." Inuyasha stared at the sky.

Then it hit him (ow..). "Like when Kagome returns home to her time!!!" Everyone stared at him, very surprised. "WHAT?! THEN HE CAN GO DOWN THE WELL?!" Shippo, the little fox demon(who was hiding behind Kagome all this time) said. "No, I don't think it's that. He must have done it some other way.......since his scent is very well NOT near the well, which is about 10 000 kilometers away." "Actually, Inuyasha, it's about 3000 kilometers away." Kagome said in a quizzacal tone. "OH YEAH? AND WHO ASKED YOU?!" Inuyasha practically yelled his head off. "WELL, I-NU-YA-SHA! YOU'VE GOT TO LEARN SOME MANNERS!" "Eek...." Inuyasha retreated. "Anyway, his scent is coming from northeast of this village, and about a half an hour walk too. Let's get our supplies and chase after him." "Agreed."

About half an hour later.....

Inuyasha quickly jumped up the hill, and Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippo quickly followed after him(walking, of course). What they saw at the top was mesmerizing. Demonic powers of blue and purple swirled around a very new sword, in an otherwise barren plateau. Except, this sword was an odd one. The blade was on the reverse side of the sword,, with the dull part on the edge. "What the heck is that?" Inuyasha said in a mocking tone, hinted with curiosity. "It's a sword, Inuyasha." "YOU DON'T THINK I KNOW THAT?" "Uh...."Miroku sweatdropped, and Inuyasha turned away. "Anyway, we gotta go after Naraku. He already has caused enough trouble in the feudal era, now I wanna stop him from messing up whatever time he's going to." "Oh how noble of you~." Miroku teased. Inuyasha had three red veins pop out of his head, and headed for the sword. "Yeah, whatever, you stupid monk. Anyway, let go." Inuyasha jumped at the sword, and disappeared. Kagome jumped next, and Miroku and Sango followed after. "Here......we.....go!" And Shippo jumped.

*She stared at the man holding the reverse-blade sword, who she had come to know as her best friend and secret crush. She got weak in the knees, as the usual, calm, deep violet eyes she knew so well melted into cold, hard, amber orbs tainted with anger. "It's......it's him......Kenshin.........noo....."* "......Karou-dono?" Karou Kamiya slowly opened her eyes, to find Kenshin kneeling over her. "Sorry Kenshin. It was just a dream." 'But, was it trying to tell me something? I'd better not tell Kenshin about it.' she thought. "Oh, ok Karou=dono. This one is glad you are alright, that he is." Kenshin smiled his gentle smile, and Karou felt at ease.

BANG!!! "Ow! You guys didn't have to land on me like that!!!" Inuyasha barked as he was being flattened by everyone but himself as they were sitting on him. "Oops, sorry Inuyasha." "Whatever! Just get off already!" After each one of them climbed off, and Inuyasha un-dusted himself, he asked quite skeptically"So.....where are we? Doesn't look like Kagome's town." They looked around. They could see a village-a very BIG village-laid out in front of them. "Um.....really, where are we?"
