Disclamer: i do not own the characters of inuyasha, i do however own a copy of The odyssey by Homer
The epic of Kagome and Inuyasha loosely based on the odyssey, one major difference Kagome is a girl disguised as a member of Odysseus(inuyasha's) crew , now lets see if you can spot the other characters, in this rip-roaring tale of adventure. XD
******Prologue*****
After the final battle with Naraku and Sesshomaru carried off Kagura as spoils of war.(don't kill me its just how the story has to go) we catch up with Inuyasha's crew on the ship 'Shikon wish.' sailing towards a steep cliff.
"Ho Kagamu!"
{ Kagome in disguise}
"Yes cap'n" said Kagamu saluting as she appeared on deck.
"whas that up ther on them rocks"
" I believe sir that's the famous man-eating Scylla, sir" said Kagamu.
"oh yeah, an what are we s'posed to do to get past that ugly bugger?"
"sir, I don't know let me go get the seer Miroku."
" wha you mean that Lech is actually good for something!"
" hai sir, he has his good points, just let Sango beat it into him first though." { Sango is also aboard ship, and she knows kagomes identity, but kagome is pretending to be a young boy, kind of like a page to Inuyasha, also kagome appears to be under the care of Sango, and none of the crew will mess with Sango.}
Miroku arrives on deck
" O great Cap'n to what do I owe the great favor of being called upon" Miroku said with a flourish of robes.
"Oi, knock off that crap Miroku I'm not one of the wenches you try to impress, Now come up here and do your job you lech."
" Cap'n I am greatly wounded you think so little of me"
"Feh," replied Inuyasha.
" you get yer sorry butt up here and tell me how to git rid of this 'thing' on the cliff?' Inuyasha says gesturing to the Scylla.
" oh what an interesting creature I must consult the Gods on a course of action. Sir is it possible to get a animal perhaps a small sheep, since I do not have the means or space to sacrifice a bull to Zeus, at this moment?" explained Miroku
"Sure just let me get one of the men to see if we have any sheep to spare." replied Inuyasha
" GET ME A SHEEP FOR THE SEER, AND I MEAN NOW!" Inuyasha Bellowed across the ship. the men scrambled to do his bidding. at last one of the men, coming up with a small lamb.
"Ahh! Perfect said Miroku." he then proceded to read the entrails {I know seems gross, but it is an actual fact the Greeks did do this}
"hmmm,…. not good….not good at all" Muttered Miroku.
"what.. What is it Miroku, " said Inuyasha
" well sir , the news is not good , we either cross under the Scylla, or we pass safely away from the Scylla but take chances on the whirlpool on the other side of this cliff wall" stated Miroku.
Sorry to leave it there, but this is just the prologue, any questions, comments or random ramblings feel free to review.

" and if we chose to pass under the scylla. what, exactly are our chances of survival?" inuyasha asked Miroku
"well......"
