CHAPTER ONE: The Girl

Sango sighed as the group continued to head south. "What is troubling you my dear Sango?" Miroku asked from behind her. Resisting the strong urge to say "you are" she simply replied, "Nothing, Im just a bit tired. That's all." "We should stop to rest soon Inuyasha." Kagome said. "Feh." That was the only answer she was going to get from him.

'I want to sit him so bad right now. Keep calm Kagome, you've already sat him twice today. I bet you're getting annoying.' she thought to herself. " Oi Wench! Hurry it up!" Kagome snapped back to her senses and blushed. She was really far behind her friends. " Coming!" she yelled to them.

Kagome ran toward them being careful not to trip. 'That's another thing that I've done twice today. Im such a clutz' Kagome was getting really tired of walking. " lets stop and rest now okay guys?" "That sounds like a good idea" Sango agreed. After a few sits and Sango yelling "hentai! (Slap)" About a thousand times, camp was set up.

"I'm gonna go take a bath, wanna come with me?" Kagome asked Sango. "Sure, I'd love to." Miroku replied. "What made it seem like that question was directed at you Miroku-sama?" Sango inquired.

The girls giggled a little bit at the disappointed Miroku before heading toward the river. " A bath sounds so good right now." Kagome said in an exaggeratedly tired voice. "I Know what you mean Ka-" Sango stopped, for there, sitting on the river bank, was a human girl.

Kagome and Sango ducked behind a bush and spied on the girl. She appeared to be their age. Her long black hair was tucked behind one ear. 'She must be able to sit on that hair' Sango thought jealously. She was wearing black pants (the same style as Kikyo's)and a white shirt that had been torn so it now showed off her belly.

Her facial features were delicate. She had a thin nose, chocolate eyes, high cheekbones, and perfect lips. Her complexion was perfect. The girls had no doubt that this girl was beautiful.

They were impressed at the weapons that lay around her. She had a Hiriakotsu ((send me the spelling of that somebody please)), a bow with arrows, a long katanna, Shuriken (Throwing stars) and daggers, and the two weapons that looked most used, a long whip and Tsai Blades (double swords).

Kagome sneezed. 'Crap' she thought. The Mysterious girl leapt to her feet and attached her weapons to her body in a matter of seconds, she looked ready for battle.

Just then Miroku and Inuyasha showed up, worried about the girls. "What took ya so long wen-" Inuyasha noticed the girl. "Who are you?" she asked in an icy tone. Sango and Kagome crawled out from behind the bush. "We are simply travelers passing through" Miroku said. " What does it matter to you onna?" Inuyasha asked rudely.

That was it. He had pissed her off. The girl drew her Tsai blades and shifted into her fighting stance. " You cannot fool me. You are Marikone's puppets. I am never going back there and you aren't going to make me. He has sent you to capture me. Do not lie." And with that being said, she charged at them. The Inu group was almost too confused with what she had just said to react. They snapped back to their senses quickly though. Inuyasha blocked her blades about an inch away from his face.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed. " be careful!" Inuyasha shoved the girl backwards but she wouldn't give up. She lunged at the group again this time aiming for Sango. Sango caught the blow with her hiriakotsu but Sango was knocked backwards and thrown into a tree. Sango fell unconscious. Miroku and Kagome ran to her side.

"Wanna see what happens when you mess with my friends?" Inuyasha said cooly. The girl just stared. Inuyasha was getting angry. He expected some sort of reaction. " I was talking to you wench." he spat. The girl sheathed her swords. " Too scared to fight?" Inuyasha mocked.

The girl now drew out her long wire whip. The half demon was a little intimidated. The only other human or woman ,for that matter, That he had met that was this strong and determined was Sango...and unfortunately she was out cold for the time being.

With a flick of her wrist, the whip lashed out at Inuyasha. How was he gonna block this one? He ducked one second too late so the wire whip ended up slashing his face. Blood trickled down his cheek. He still refused to hurt this human woman.

She put her whip back into the sheath on her thigh and turned around. She had won this battle. She didn't need to do anything more.

The Inu group (minus sango) watched her walk away into the distance with dozens of questions pouring through their minds. Who was she? What was she talking about? Where is she going? What just happened? The whole group was confused. This was a definite mystery.
