-Story start-

From the night came day and the entire village was repairing the damage that was done to their village and bury the dead, with words of pray and wish them a good after life.

Within an undamaged house, Kagome getting a patch job done from Kaede as she said, "How's that? Should I put more urgent on your belly?"

"No that fine, but how is Yuma, he was the one fighting the most," Kagome asked being concern of her cousin's health, as she look over to him lying in a make shift bed. As by his bedside was the Garoken within its sheath, and zaruba on his finger still.

To zaruba words of the sword was made of soul metal, only few people can lift it as to other is as heavy beyond anything they could carry, good thing within Yuma hands it was light as a feather.

Kaede wash a wet cloth and ring it out a bit as she said, "He resting child, as what Zaruba have said to me, he fine and need time to rest."

Kagome was glad to hear that and inuyasha didn't do any damage to him than knocking him out, which he needed some time to recover from. As she turn to outside to see the people working as she said, "I see they're repairing the damage that was done from the horror and miss centipede, what a pain."

"Pain indeed and more is to come now that the sacred shikon no tama is back among us, far worse than mistress centipede will come to claim it."

"Worse than yesterday?" Kagome asked as kaede nodded and said, "And not just demons. There are humans whose hearts are more evil, still, and only the jewel has the power to make real their petty, grasping ambitions."

"Sound like people with Inga in their hearts will come with horrors following behind, Yuma will have his work cut out for him," As Zaruba said putting in his two cents.

Kagome hear that and felt a bit sadden, as it seems it not just her fight of sacred jewel, but Yuma as well. As Kagome sighed a bit, at the corner of her eye she see and says, "Speaking of petty, what are you still doing here?"

As kagome pointed out to Inuyasha that was laying on the floor waiting for something, as he turn his head back a bit to answer as he says, "I'm waiting for the jewel." Turn back as he just wanted the jewel still but it seem something has stop him in his tracks as Kaede spoken, "With the beads around his neck, his threat is diminished. It is perhaps the only way we can allow him so close to the jewel."

Kagome was trying to figure out why inuyasha wanted the jewel as he kill a demon that was infuse with the jewel for just the moment as she pull it out from her pockets as she said, "Why do you want the jewel anyways?"

Putting the jewel away as she went on saying, "It's seems to me you're strong enough as it is. What power could the jewel give you don't already have?"

"Ah, but he's just half-demon," Kaede said with inuyasha got piss for some reason and punch out the floor in his area as he says, "You know what? I'm sick of hearing some dried up witch I just met talks like she knows me."

"So ye don't remember. As I thought as much. I'm younger sister to kikyo, she who bound ye to the sacred tree, Kaede."

"You're Kaede?" Inuyasha question, as he remembers a memory of a little girl that was by kikyo side who was small and so very young.

"So you're the brat, huh?"

"50 years have passed and I grow old," as kaede said as she put in a few log to the fire that within the room to keep it warm.

As Inuyasha took it, sited cross legged as he try to think the ages to 50 years ago and now as he said, "If you're this old, kikyo must be pushing 100."

As kagome look to inuyasha as she still trying to figure out who this kikyo person is and all she found out is she was the older sister of the old lady and inuyasha seem to hate her or something.

"I'm sure glad I don't gotta worry about being old, at least not for a while," Inuyasha smug at that as seem being part demon has a perk to it.

"Kikyo didn't worry ether. Kikiyo died," kaede saying to break the bad news as that catch inuyasha attention as he look to the old woman as she went on saying, "It was on the same day she shot Ye with the arrow." Kaded putting in another log as the fire crackle a bit to the weigh shift.

"Gee, Sorry to hear it, not that I really care or nothing," inuyahsa insulting to his words, to Yuma hand that no one seem to notice as it balled into a fist a bit.

Zaruba soon took notice to Yuma before letting people know. "Oi minna, he's waking up." Zaruba said as Yuma was getting up and rubbing his head.

"Man my head is killing me." He said before taking notice to Zaruba and the Garoken. "I guess it wasn't a dream then." Yuma said as he picked up the Garoken.

"Afraid not." Kagome said before she had to ask. "Besides the headache how do you feel?" Kagome asked as Yuma looked and spotted the half demon guy and pull his weapon in close.

"Like I want to beat the living shit out of… Inuyasha was it?" Yuma said as Inuyasha got up and glared.

"Wanna go, I'll take you on anytime!" Inuyasha said as Yuma glared.

"My pleasure!" Yuma called out as he had the Garoken ready to draw.

'Bonk!'

"Sit boy!"

Kagome spoken out using the key word for the binding spell that made Inuyasha slam hard into the floor of the home. With Yuma holding his head as he was hit by a bamboo stick that was within kagome's hand.

"Calm down you two, getting worked up will get you, nowhere." Zaruba said as Yuma then sighed before standing up.

"He's right Yuma, I'm sorry I did that but Inuyasha wasn't going to do a thing. Got him under a spell to my word he's not going to do anything," Kagome explain best she could, with Yuma rubbing his head as he got up and walk out.

"I'm going for a walk." Yuma said as he left to explore a bit.

"What's the heck, what's your guy's problem, if you two are cousins, why isn't he with his parents?" Inuyasha asked as he recovered from the sit spell from Kagome, as she looked to him.

"His parents, my aunt and uncle passed away and it's been real hard on him but then this happens I'm worried about him." Kagome said as Inuyasha scoffed before lying down.

(With Yuma)

Yuma was in the forest training with the Garoken as he swung it in a Kendo stance. One of Yuma stress relief, as he usually do back home if he felt frustrated or even upset.

To the young makai knight seem to have experience under his belt, as Yuma took Kendo practice, as which the only type of sword training is he got as he swung. That was when a voice came in. "So you're the Ougon Kishi Garo, my not much to look at." A voice said as Yuma looked to see a man with a duster under Samurai Armor as he had a simple sword in his hand and what looked like a Madou ring on his finger. This man looks to be in his late 50's as he had grayish black hair pulled into a long tail, tan skin, and blue eyes. "And that style you're using isn't designed for that Garoken and seems like you're wielding a katana." The man said as Yuma was getting angry.

"Who are you anyway!?" Yuma demanded as the man drew his sword close to him.

In a moment, the man flash before Yuma and knock him off his feet. "Beat me to find out." The man said as his ring then spoke.

"Time to see the level of this Garo's power." The ring said as Yuma got up from his shove, he took a battle stance and stood ready.

Recovered from the knock down, Yuma charged at the stranger, but the man didn't draw his sword, or made any aggressive moves. He dodged the attack jumping back. Yuma then tried to side swing the blade at the man's upper body but the man ducked under and used the momentum to use the butt of his sword to hit into Yuma's chest knocking him on his back. The man then jabbed the tip of his sheathed sword on to Yuma's stomach knocking the air out of him. "This is the level of power you wield, it's pitiful really." The man said as Yuma glared.

Hitting away the sheathed sword off of him, and get back to his feet and steady his weapon again as the man said, "You think you can beat me with a style not meant for that sword?"

"It's the only style I know of, it's the only thing I can do," Yuma said to the stranger as just sighed and said, "You truly think just because you learn one style meaning it the only one you can use?"

Before Yuma could answer, the stranger came at him fast before he could blink, as the man drew his sword, for Yuma being surprise at this only had a moment to do anything, as without thinking his footing change and raise his sword upside down as the swords clash, Yuma took the advantage as he throw up the man's handling that left his middle area wide open.

Yuma strike at it but to his surprise the man jump over his attack, dodging it. Leaping over Yuma, as he only turn around to see a sword pointed at his neck.

"Not bad, it seems your learning now," as the stranger lower his sword from Yuma neck but then punch him in the gut as the air left Yuma again as he fell to the ground.

"But not yet ready," as the strange said before sheathing his sword and then started to walk away. Yuma recover the best he can as he said, "W-wait…wh… who are you?"

The strange stop just for a moment before saying, "A makai knight, let us meet again in the near future Ougon Kishi." Soon enough the man vanish within a blind of an eye.

As Yuma recover from the low blow he gotten from another makai knight and what seem to be very bad is… they know who he is. "Who was that Zaruba?"

"Hmm, I'm not familiar with all makai knights and I've only meet so many In the past before I was put in the box, But be warn the makai order of this time may now know your Garo, but if they knew you're from the future might be dangers," Zaruba warn Yuma as he knew the danger if 'back to the future' hasn't taught a thing of how it could be.

Yuma just sat down on a stump from a tree that was cut down, trying to catch his breath from that fight, he knew he sucked with the weapon he had, as it wasn't a katana or any other form of it, it was a double edge straight sword that turn into a broad sword if he was garo.

"Is there way for me to use this?" as Yuma question himself of how to fight with the Garoken, but skill would little to none with any sword and he doesn't think he could get a teacher from his era, or maybe even back home.

Yuma then looked at Zaruba before speaking. "Zaruba how would you suggest learning how I could use the Garoken?" Yuma asked as Zaruba looked.

"If it were me I would try developing your own unique style that suits the Garoken and your own body." Zaruba said as Yuma looked.

"That sounds smart." Yuma said before Zaruba continued.

"But though my memory is a little foggy, I do know the basics of sword fighting with swords like the Garoken I can teach you a bit but after that you're on your own." Zaruba said as Yuma smiled.

"Got it." Yuma said as he was going to be a proper Knight.

(With Kagome)

"I wonder where Yuma is." Kagome said as she walked around the village. As she walked he Shikon no Tama was on a necklace with beads on it as she saw the villagers do a prayer to her like she was some sort of Priestess which wasn't really far from the truth sense she is the reincarnation of a priestess. As she walked she looked at the Jewel in wonder. "All this trouble for one little Jewel." Kagome said as she then though of Yuma. "Though Yuma has had a major responsibility forced on him yet he accepts it, I guess he's just that kind of person." Kagome said as she wondered into the woods.

Upon reaching into an open area of the forest she saw Yuma was there and was trying out a stand while holding his sword out, as he has the sword resting on his arms as he drew it back with the sound of it echoing then stops.

Yuma took a breathing then toss the blade off his arm than grasp it both his hand and slash the air, then step back with the sword raise his head level pointed outwards, then twirl his sword before resting the blade on his arm redoing the stands he did before.

"Good, and nice timing. Just breath and do an cross slash next, this would help do ether force any opponent back or cause minimal damage of cuts, as they might bleed out, they'll live through it," Zaruba said as to Yuma as he did just that, set the blade to his head level again and then reset

Kagome watch of how Yuma train, even when they are just stuck in this time period, he trying to learn how to fight, as kagome knew of how strong Yuma was during kendo classes, even a few of her friends saw out talented he was with a sword or a anything in his hands, like he was born to do it.

"Cross, slash, and stab," as Zaruba said with Yuma did just that, level the sword the, reset. Kagome left Yuma undisturbed as she walk out of the forest and decided to pay the half demon a visit and maybe try to make friends.

-Later that day-

At the time of night as Kagome was laying in her make shift bed, thinking about home, her family and saying she would try to get back home somehow.

As outside from the tree tops area, many birds had gathered as well a bird with 3 eyes with and dark aura around it, and not only them but creature from down below has come, to some lowly demons with animal followers as with a abnormal wolf with fang the size of daggers and glowing red eyes.

As all the demon around have their eyes set on the jewel that was glowing within Kagome possession as it seem they were about to make a move, out of nowhere, inuyasha was in the upper tree line cutting and killing a few bird to scare them away, as down below, Yuma slash at the lowly demon wolf killing it on the spot as the pack of wolf saw this and ran away.

Yuma look down at the dead demon wolf, it might have been his first clean kill of anything to besides the horror he face the other day, and they were about to go after the jewel, but he could not help but to shake a bit. All he could do is taking a breath and let it out as Zaruba said, "First demon kill, and a wolf no less, a bit ironic if you ask me as makai knight were imaged after wolfs."

"I guess, I got to be getting use to these types of things," As Yuma held out the sheath and put away the Garoken and was about to walk away, but he look up to see inuyahsa was still trying to kill some birds.

"Lowly demon, only after the jewel, Stinkin' Vultures," Inuyasha said with Yuma had a deadpan look on his face and said, "Ain't you after it too?"

Inuyasha had a sour look on his face and said, "Shut up, I have a reason to go after it."

Inuyasha went off on his own as Yuma just sighed and just walk back to the huts he and kagome is staying at.

-the next morning-

Yuma was back in his area learning, reviewing, and put into action with his style that is in development, even trying a few techniques he thought about, but it seem they were of kendo still and try to move around that.

As he was about to go on, he heard a commotion going on, as Yuma stop what he was doing and step out of the forest back in the village, he saw people trying around saying, "Lady Kikyo!"

"How many times do we have to say it? Kagome is not Kikyo." Yuma said sweat dropping to the people stupidity as Zaruba said, "It's just how they, believe that their once great priestess that come back to life, they do not know of reincarnation to understand it."

Yuma sighed, as he saw a running villager coming by as he stop him and said, "What is going on around, did something happen?"

The man shook his head no as he said, "Nothing yet, but lady kikyo-" he stop as Yuma face palm himself as he said through his teeth, "It Kagome, get it right."

The man sweats a bit and said, "My apologies, I mean lady kagome has gone off somewhere and we do not know where she may be at."

Yuma got worried and it wasn't like Kagome to wander off and be gone for so long. "I'll investigate but can you tell me where Inuyasha is I'll need his help." Yuma said as the villagers nodded before speaking.

"Last I saw of Inuyasha he was at Kaede's hut." The Villager said as Yuma nodded.

"Arigato." Yuma said before heading over to Kaede's hut. It didn't take Yuma long to find it as he found Inuyasha laying down as he looked at him. "Inuyasha I need your help with something." Yuma said as Inuyasha looked.

"Whatever it is you can handle it yourself kid." Inuyasha said a Yuma looked.

"Kagome hasn't come back yet and sense you have a great nose I believe you can help me track her." Yuma said as Inuyasha looked.

"Fine." Inuyasha said as it was only to get the Sacred Jewel.

-later-

Yuma was running fast as he could through the forest right behind inuyasha as he jump from tree to tree, rock to rock, and run almost like speedy Gonzales. Barely keep up with him, as Inuyahsa taught, "Hurry up, kid. Do you want me to get her first?"

"Hey we're both trying to find her, so stop talk and get sniffing!" Yuma yelled at Inuyasha.

Inuyahsa didn't like being told what to do but if it the jewel he concern about he'll put up with it.

As they started to get closer and closer to somewhere they soon spotted a abandon temple. "She in there," Inuyasha commented as Yuma look and question, "And you're sure?"

"Do I look like a liar?" inuyahsa said piss off with Yuma questioning him and his tracking ability.

"No, but you look like an ass," Yuma said as Inuyasha ready his claws and said, "why you-" he stop as a crash sound was hear and lots of yelling came from the temple and soon enough, Yuma and Inuyahsa ran to it, as they came to a wall that was looked weaken as Yuma said, "You think you can bust it down?"

"Hu. Easy!" Inuyasha charge at it and one shift punch destroying the wall, and was greeted by some bandits, kagome is helping them, and an 8 foot looking troll guy with pale skin as to Yuma looks dead.

As the troll looking guy was about to strike kagome inuyasha and Yuma charge in as inuyasha took the hit of the blade that shatter upon contacted with his red robes, and Yuma jab the hilt of the Garoken into the troll guy gut to push him back.

The guy went back a bit but didn't stop him as he charge at the two, with inuyasha jumping up to the guys face and punching it like crazy, with Yuma using his sheath sword as a bat and took out one of the guys legs as he fell over and broke the floor upon impacted.

"You came," AS Kagome look to inuyasha and turn to her cousin and said, "Thank cousin."

"Are you hurt?" "Where's the jewel?!" as both made a comment as Yuma look to inuyasha and said, "How selfish can you be?"

"Hey I care about the jewel and I'm not letting any others get it, now where is it?" inuyahsa said as he look to kagome as he had a look and said, "Jewel… oops."

"What don't tell me," Inuyasha said as Yuma saw the giant out of the corner of his eye rising back up as he said, "Ah, guys

The giant man stood back up as the bandit around said, "We're out of here." "Bye boss." "Thanks again."

"Cowards, no surprise there," Yuma said as he ready himself with the Garoken, but didn't draw it as he did not want to kill a person, that until Zaruba said, "Carful Yuma, that thing not human anymore."

"What do you mean?" Yuma ask zaruba but inuyasha beat him to the punch and said, "Ahh, man that smell, it like rotting meat."

Soon enough the giant's man armor started to shift as a strap broke off and show off a hole in his chest with three red eyes showing as pop out a demon crows head.

"That disturbing," Yuma said as Inuyasha said, "Who want to bet to that think rip that human living heart out and made a bloody nest."

"I knew something was wrong, that bird made him into a puppet," kagome said as inuyahsa smile as he said, "Carrion crows don't fight on their own when their dead body's handy, they aren't so tough."

Yuma drew the Garoken and said, "Well at least we can put this man's body down to rest." Saying now that he'll have no trouble killing an already dead guy's as he… dead already.

"I hate crow, as they are just nasty!" as inuyasha aid as he lunch at the corpse nest with Yuma came in low and cut the giant man in half at the waste.

The demon crow escape as the body soon turns to dust as became bones and then nothing but dust in the wind.

As the crow went out the door, Kagome said, "Hey, it getting away, go after it."

"Well excuse, but the world is full of monsters, do you want me to go after them all?" Inuyahsa saying as wanted to be lazy as Zaruba said, "I would be a good spent of your time than going after a marble."

Calling the sacred jewel a marble, as kagome giggle a bit to that, with Yuma didn't know Zaruba had a joking side to him being a ring and all.

"Shut up, no one ask for your opinion, damn ring thing," Inuyasha said as everyone started to make their way outside as Yuma said, "So where did you drop it?"

"I throw it really and it out here somewhere," Kagome said as soon enough the three of them (4 counting Zaruba) saw the demon crow with the jewel in its mouth as inuyahsa cry out as the crow took it and starting to fly off.

"That crow is making off with the jewel, what wrong with you?!" Inuyasha question as he look at kagome as she had an upset look and said, "what do you mean what wrong with- Go after it!"

Inuyasha blow off the remaining debris out of the way and all of them were going after the crow, until inuyasha stop after 20 step and kagome said, "Hey!" after crashing into him and fell on her butt.

"What are you doing, that crow is getting away," Yuma pointed out as it was getting further and further away, as inuyasha said, "Don't worry, I got something that can help." As he pointed out to a bow and arrow set that the bandits left behind.

Soon enough kagome was on Inuyahsa back as he was running as fast as he could with Yuma, trying to keep up but to do so as Yuma said, "Why didn't I take a horse?!"

"Garo has a Horse but you can't exactly use it yet." Zaruba said as Yuma looked.

"Why not?!" Yuma called as they ran.

"Because first you must slay 100 Horrors and then undergo the Trial of Inner Shadows." Zaruba explained as Yuma was trying to keep up.

"Oi wench you need to shoot the Demon." Inuyasha explained as Kagome looked.

"What?" She asked as Inuyasha growled.

"Kikyo was a great archer she can hit any target from almost any distance the Crow Demon at this distance should be child's play especially sense Kikyo's main source of combat was archery." Inuyasha said as Yuma looked.

"I don't think that will work!" Yuma called as Inuyasha glared.

"What do you know anyway!" Inuyasha called clearly not caring .

"Ok here goes nothing." Kagome said as she prepared to shoot the arrow but to many it would look like she wasn't a novice. 'Kikyo give me your strength.' Kagome thought as she prepared to fire the arrow.

AS the crow came in site, Kagome took the shot, as the arrow flow.

'Wha wha wha whaaaaaa'

The arrow fell down like a sad looking shot, Inuyasha fell with kagome on his back to the shock that kagome sucked at using a bow.

Yuma catch up as kagome look down at Inuyasha and said, "I thought you said she was a master Archer?" Inuyasha got up and look at her and said, "She was, it's you that the klutz."

Yume sighed and said to himself, "Rock, me, morons." As he held up his hand with his head in between as saying he like between a rock and a hard place, or two morons that should have known that two different people from different time line are not the same person, despite being reincarnated.

After a moment as the crow was getting away again but was getting bigger as well, Kagome was on inuyahsa back once again as he ran with Yuma trying to catch up.

"It's bigger this time, so it should be easy!" Inuyasha said as kagome took aim again as she took aim with the bow and then fire once more.

'Wha wha wha whaaaaaa'

Yuma swear it was a sad looking arrow as it came down again, and inuyasha was getting tired already with Kagome missing and took her off his back as she said, "Hey!"

Inuyasha turn to kagome and says, "I don't care what that old lady says. You are not kikyo, you got that. I'm am so out of here"

'Hey progress... In a bad way' Yuma thought as people get kikyo and kagome mix up, inuyasha saw it but at bad time, as Yuma catch up as inuyasha went off on his own again. Helping up kagome as Yuma said, "I don't blame ya, it inuyasha is the baka right now."

Kagome look to her cousin and says, "How do you know, you're good with that sword when you first use it."

"That because I was in kendo, or did you forgets, I sign up for the class?" Yuma made a good argument as Kagome was about to say something but didn't have anything as Yuma said, "I thought so, you never use a bow before, that don't mean you can't be good with it, now let catch up before inuyasha does something dumb again."

Soon enough they catch up as the crow was carrying off a boy to be its meal, as inuyasha took out the bird with his, 'Iron reaper soul stealer' move but the boy fell into the strong river.

"The jewel, where is it?" AS inuyasha said as he was looking for the sacred jewel, Yuma just got piss as Kagome saw the boy about to drown as she took off her socks and shoes and then jump in after the small boy.

AS people saw that, they thought she was a water imp, as Yuma sweat drop to that as he said, "Do these people know what fast swimming is, or even a doggy paddle?"

"What's a doggy paddle?" Zaruba asked as Yuma sweat drop more and said, "Should have known."

As Kagome came in with the boy on her back, people were cheering for her as she made it back to land, and inuyasha said, "Save the jewel, the jewel!"

AS kagome look over where inuyasha was at, someone tap on his shoulder behind him as he said, "Hu?" he turns around to see Yuma and a fist to his face."

Inuyasha fell, as his face fell into the waters as Yuma said, "Do you have any idea what you just did, you Teme!"

Inuyasha got up as he glared at Yuma. "Why you!" He yelled but before a fist fight could start Kagome noticed something on the boys back. "Not to be the bearer of bad news but the Crow still has the Jewel and its regenerating." Zaruba said as the two looked and saw that the bird was in fact regenerating its body.

"Hey if you two can stop arguing for a minute I have an idea." Kagome said as she took the Crows foot that was stuck on the boy's shirt and tied it to an arrow.

"I see the Crow can regenerate the part that hasn't reattached will guide the arrow and hit the crow very smart." Zaruba said as Kagome smiled at the praise before Yuma looked as Kagome aimed. When Kagome released the arrow it sailed fast and true as the claw was attached to it and it was heading straight for the Crow. Once the Arrow hit its mark the Crow began to glow in a purple light before it exploded into a brilliance of light as lights flew all over the sky in different directions as Zaruba looked.

"That can't be good." Zaruba said as Yuma looked. "Why do I get the feeling this Sacred Jewel stuff will become more Troublesome then originally." Zaruba said as he watched the lights eventually vanish.

"That was, shiny." Yuma said as Inuyasha didn't say anything this time.

(Later)

"Are you sure it landed around here?" Inuyasha asked as he Yuma, and Kagome looked for the Jewel.

"Yeah I'm positive." Kagome said as Zaruba then spoke.

"I can sense it we're close to it but something about it is off." Zaruba said as Inuyasha looked.

"What is it you stupid ring." Inuyasha said just as Yuma saw something.

"LOOK OUT!" Yuma called as he saw the Crows head attack as it still survived and Yuma cut it with the Garoken killing it as its remains sizzled as something shiny fell out of it. Kagome picked up the shiny thing revealing it to be a shard in the same color as the Sacred Jewel.

"Kagome, that's what I sensed it's the Jewel or what's left of it." Zaruba said as Inuyasha was shocked.

"What did you do?!" He demanded as he was shocked to see only a shard of the Shikon no Tama.

(Scene Break Kaede's hut)

"Are ye sure of this?" Kaede asked as she inspected the Jewel Shard.

"Yes this is all we found." Kagome said before Zaruba spoke.

"I think what happened was Kagome's arrow held a bit of sacred energy in it and didn't even realize it, when the arrow hit the Jewel it shattered it into fragments spreading them all across this world." Zaruba said as Inuyasha was sulking not to far away.

"I see there is no telling how many Jewel Shards there are there could be 100 even 1000 shards and with just one shard anyone with evil in there heart will gain a boost in power and become very dangerous." Kaede said before Zaruba spoke.

"This is becoming very troublesome, we will basically have to hunt these shards down." Zaruba said as Yuma looked.

"This is very bad then." Yuma said as he looked at Inuyasha. "We'll have to work together with Inuyasha to get the Jewel Shards." Yuma said before Inuyasha spoke.

"If you all haven't notice I so happen to be one of those with "evil in there heart." Inuyasha said as Zaruba looked.

"Then I'd be careful from now on we wouldn't want you to unknowingly create a Gate and summon forth a Horror." Zaruba said a Inuyasha glared.

"Like I let one of those things possess me." Inuyasha said before Zaruba spoke.

"Oh I wouldn't be too sure, a Horror doesn't just possess you, it eats your soul and uses your body to roam freely." Zaruba said as Inuyasha glared at the Madou Ring.

"Lets move on, now that the scared jewel is shattered, there shard around to be found as we got demon, evil human, and at best bet, horrors coming after them as well. We're on our own right now, and we just got one shard with more to go so we can ether suck it up and deal with it, and maybe we can kill each other later, "Yuma said as Kagome smack him upside the head and said, "That not helping."

AS old lady Kaede sighed to the group that lay before her still talking to each other, as a half demon, a reincarnated priestess, and a another as a makai knight, as fate brought them together show their destiny show great promise or great disaster.

"Let all head to bed, it late, we're tired, and I'm worn out from running after you guys," Yuma said as Zaruba nodded as he said, "Rest is always important, even after great battle or fights, rest is the key to a perfect mind, body, and soul."

AS kagome nodded to that Inuyahsa just turn his head and said, "Yea, whatever." As everyone agree to bed rest, they went there way and to their make shift bed as Kaede was the only one left, as she drank some tea and gave a small pray to the young warrior that were soon to be off to seek the jewel shards.

"As this day may end, a new one will begin, may Ye children find their way home," Kaede said as the scene dims out until it was black.
