Okibi looked up at the soft, fluffy clouds that gracefully drifted by in the atmosphere, with her grey messenger bag full of supplies, scrolls and Ramen. Her soft black and white curled tail sat calmly next to her as she lied in the short grass on a large hillside. Her fitted black t-shirt was warm from the suns rays and the cuffs of her long blue stoned washed fitted flared jeans slightly rustled in the breeze. Her ears twitched gently as her deep purple eyes watched in awe at how gracefully the clouds moved. She had just finished the trimester of teaching fire bending and was completely exhausted. She missed her friends which had gone away on a last mission with their classes. She was asked if she wanted to go but she refused. Okibi had never been so exhausted since she had first run into Mei. Okibi let out a big yawn escape her mouth that she had been trying to stifle for the last hour. She closed her eyes and drifted off in her thoughts.
InuYasha ran through the forest as he searched for Kagome. He didn't care if they had defeated Naraku almost two years ago; he wasn't going to let her out of his sight, especially if she wasn't feeling well. She would defiantly get attacked in her weakened state. "'I just want to go for a walk,' she says." InuYasha mumbled in a cocky voice. "I tell her to rest and she sits me. What the hell is her problem? I just want her to get better. We only need the two shards from Kouga and we can get rid of this blasted jewel. She's so stupid! She has almost the whole jewel and she decides to run off, 'for a walk'…baka…" InuYasha continued to follow Kagome's scent, but caught another baffling scent, the scent of another hanyou, a strong one at that. Kagome's scent was in the same direction of that one as well. The closer InuYasha got to finding Kagome the more powerful the aura got of the rival hanyou. Kagome you better be okay.
"Stupid InuYasha," Kagome said under her breath. "I am allowed to do what I want. It's not like I need to be babysat." Kagome had been recently getting a bad cough with headaches and stomachaches. InuYasha was worried about her but she kept on telling him not to worry, it was probably just a minor cold. That was before when she started throwing up everything she ate. She couldn't keep one single thing down for going on a week now. InuYasha had a right to worry about her. He even suggested that she go back to her own time to get checked out so they can find the last two shards. Kagome did but all the doctors could say was that they thought it was a cold or maybe the flu and gave her some prescription medications. The pills did no good whatsoever. Back at camp, before she left, Miroku was bothering Sango with his lecherous ways and Shippo was having fun torturing InuYasha with his Invisibility Technique. Kirara had walked off somewhere and Kagome was getting a massive migraine. She got up and was about to take a walk to clear her mind when InuYasha had the nerve to tell her she wasn't allowed to. Kagome warned him to leave her alone but he didn't listen and all of the smart remarks began to get on her nerves. So before anything else could be said between the two she sat him like there was no tomorrow so she could get a head start walking. She knew that he would catch up quickly with how fast he was. She walked through the woods listening to the quiet chirping of the song birds and chattering of the squirrels. Her headache was beginning to dissipate with the stillness of the woods. She wondered how far she was from a clearing so she could lie down in some soft grass. She kept walking further ahead and reached the edge of the woods. When she came out from behind a tree she instantly came upon the base of a large grassy hill. "Perfect, just what I was looking for." Kagome began to climb the side of the hill.
Okibi opened an eye. "Only a human, nothing to get worked up about, just be cautious." She closed her eye, knowing that she was way stronger than any human let alone any youkai. She opened her eyes again upon hearing a loud cough from the human and it gasp for air. She raised an eye brow. "Damn it. Now it's not going to be quiet anymore." She sighed and closed her eyes yet again, too tired to care about this human. She heard the footsteps get louder with the soft padding of grass being walked on. Her tail seemed to wake up and it swished side to side.
Kagome got to the top of the hill and saw what looked to be like a demon. A girl, looked of the age 16, with long shining white hair, and… a black t-shirt and blue jeans? Was that a messenger bag next to her? And is she wearing bright green Converse? She was instantly on alert for any sudden movements from the girl. Where did this girl come from? Who is she?
Okibi could sense the confusion from the human who had climbed the hillside from behind her. "Got a problem?" she questioned with no emotion and not moving a muscle. She was completely too tired to care. She was just uneasy with this human standing over her and more than likely staring at her.
Kagome slightly jumped at the sound of the girl's silky voice. "Umm, no. What's your name?"
"Man you humans are so bothersome." Okibi lazily sat up and looked at the human girl behind her. Her eyes turned serious as she scanned the girls clothing. A tall, skinny, girl with long raven hair and a school outfit was staring at her with the same confusion. Her complexion was very pale which led Okibi to understand that the human was sick in some way. "Don't tell me… you're not from this time period either." Okibi commented the girl in the short, leaf green skirt. "What's your name? Don't worry, I won't hurt a weakling like you," she grinned. Okibi could sense the girl's anger rising with her.
"My name is Kagome, and I am a priestess, so I'm no weakling. Don't underestimate me." Kagome coughed twice and covered up her mouth with her petite hands and coughed vigorously. She fell onto her knees and coughed even more. Okibi sighed and rolled her deep purple eyes. She went into her grey bag and pulled out a long red scroll while Kagome continued to cough and cough. She broke the seal on the cylinder and opened it. She got up and walked slowly over to the girl. She momentarily stopped coughing and started to shake uneasily. Wow this girl is really sick. This will defiantly help her. Okibi placed the scroll opened and face up on the ground. Kagome noticed strange handwriting and symbols on the slightly yellowing paper. "You are really very sick, let me help you." Okibi bit the tip of her thumb with her right, long, sharp, canine tooth, drawing a steady stream of blood. She took her thumb and made a long vertical trail of blood on the middle of all the writing, made the hand sign of inu and the scroll disappeared with a poof of smoke. A soft glowing orb concealed Kagome in a small, transparent, violet bubble. Okibi sat back down on her legs and watched as the color began to seep back into the girl's skin. Kagome seemed to be floating in mid air as she sat on her legs. Okibi began to sense another aura, aside from the priestess', coming at a fast pace toward them. Another hanyou, a powerful one, with a very unique scent. Okibi began to make hand signs to try and speed up the healing process. "This will hurt a bit but try not to make any noise." She was making hand seals as fast as she could. She looked at the process of the girl in the transparent bubble and she was beginning to feel the pain of the rushing process. "This has to be done. You will feel better soon, trust me," Okibi sensed the aura getting closer. She could feel that whatever hanyou the aura belonged to was franticly searching for something, or someone. Was that other hanyou on the trail of the girl? She couldn't let anything happen to her, it would defiantly mess up the time continuum.
InuYasha could sense that Kagome's and that other aura was somehow connected. What the hell is going on? Kagome where are you? InuYasha became more frantic in his search. His nose led him to a large hill. "AHHHHHHHH!!" There came Kagome's shriek of pain. "I'm coming Kagome!" InuYasha hollered to the top of the hill. He was going to rip apart whatever was hurting Kagome. "Kagome!" InuYasha jumped with one try to the top of the hill. He saw Kagome writhing in pain in a violet transparent bubble with another girl sitting on her knees doing something with her hands. The girl on the outside of the bubble was not human. She had long hair that began as black at the top and faded to pure snow white at the tips. At the top of the girls head sat two husky like puppy dog ears and InuYasha saw what looked to be a husky tail wagging wildly behind her, as if happy that there was someone suffering in front of it. The girl looked at InuYasha with an expressionless face as she continued to do random peculiar shapes with her hands. "What are you doing with Kagome?!" He yelled at the strange girl sitting in front of him once Kagome shrieked again in pain.
"I'm helping her now shut up and leave me alone while I do this." Okibi continued with her hand signs. "Almost finished," she said to no one in particular.
"You're not going to finish anything if you don't back away from Kagome." InuYasha pulled out his Tetsuiga with a swish and it transformed menacingly.
"Do what I say and you won't get hurt," replied Okibi trying to finish the healing jutsu.
"Feh, you're the one who will be getting hurt in a second." InuYasha ran towards the opposing hanyou, Tetsuiga in hand.
