Chapter one

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You STUPID wench! Do I always have to save your ass? I mean cant you just stay safe for ONE frigen minute without getting into fucken trouble?!" 'Well there he goes again, ranting. You'd hope that after 2 and a half years with me that he'd learn that I attracted all forms of danger to myself but noooooo he just has to yell at me like theres no tomorrow. Doesn't he understand that I'm right infront of him?'

"You don't need to yell so loud!" the black hair girl growled out in obvious annoyance. "It's not like I'm trying to get myself killed Inuyasha. I was just trying to help!" The hanyo just glared at the girl "Even Shippou has more sence then you when it comes to fighting wench!" the girls narrowed her brown eyes. "Inuyasha" The inu-hanyo's dog like ears pushed down to his scull; he knew what was going to happen. "SIT BOY" 'BOOM' the hanyo went flying towards the ground.

"LOOK, SERIOUSLY INUYASHA I WAS JUST TRYING TO HELP! SO WHAT IF I ALMOST GOT KILLED BY THAT HUGE LION-TURTLE-MONKEY THING! I STILL KILLED IT! Didn't I!?" The hanyo growled from his hole in the ground but decided to remain silent.

"Sango-chan let's go take a bath." The other girl, Sango, smiled towards her friend "Alright Kagome let's go get this slime off. Kirara, make sure the monk doesn't peep" The small cat named Kirara mewed and turned towards the monk "Now ladies, why would I, a monk, want to peep on fine, beautiful women such as yourselves? It would go against all I hold to be truth" "Shut it Miroku, we know the truth" The monk only smiled bashfully as the two girls, Sango and Kagome, left.

"Think he'll get past Kirara?" Kagome asked her friend. "Pft, fat chance" the other girl snorted and sure enough soon they heard a cat like roar and a despreat "No no Kirara-chan! I wasn't trying to…. NO! I wasn't going to peep! I swear! I-" a loud smashing noise sent birds flying threw the forest in fright "Who do you think knocked him out this time? Kirara, Shippou or Inuyasha?" Kagome laughed as she looked at Sango. "Who knows, as long as he's unconscious I'm happy." The two giggle as they made there way towards the hot spring.

The spring wasn't to far from camp and was surrounded by thick, bulky trees. The steam of the water climbed up into the air like misty dragons and the moon's shine, which glissend the water, was bright. The large rock, which held the basin of water, where smooth and polished and this is where kagome decided to lay her bag on.

"It's not like I did anything bad" The miko told her friend as she took off her cloths. "I did what I always do: take out my bow and arrow and fire towards the demon with all the power I could release." She slowly got into the warm water and heaved a heavy sigh as the hot water washed over her. "It's not like I didn't know that it could've killed me if I didn't hit it properly." The exterminator seemed kind of nervous. "What's wrong Sango?" The older girl sighed "I was worried Kagome… I though you were going to get hurt and I got scared…" Kagome blinked as her friend put her hand on her forehead "If you died, I'd be stuck with Miroku and Inuyasha…. I need you in my life Kagome, I don't need another important person to dissapear in my life" Sango seemed shy of voicing her thoughts but Kagome knew why; Sango was a strong person, she was not known to voice her feelings, she was a demon exterminator, a Taijiya.

"I'm sorry Sango…" the two then went off into there own thoughts as they bathed and scrubbed off the green goo that had once been apart of the large demons innards. The slimy green goop was less then co-operative and stuck to them tightly but with Kagome's soap they soon got it off. "This stuff is soooooo gross" Whispered Kagome as she poked the goop with a stick.

"Hey, Kagome?" Kagome turned towards her friend that was still relaxing in the pool, not minding the nasty slime that trailed around her.... She was probably used to it after all the years she'd lived but Kagome wasn't and it made her grimaced.

"What is it Sango-Chan?" Kagome asked her while eyeing the nasty slop. The demon exterminator turned towards her with a smile on her face. "Well, since we're alone and we have time how about another lesson?" Kagome's curiosity peeked at the idea of being taught more on Youkai customs; A few months ago the taijiya had started teaching her about demons thinking it would be in her best interest to know about them.

"What will we be learning today Sensie!!" Kagome eagerly asked "Inu/Ookami-Youkai" Kagome gave her an odd look "But Sango-Sensei I thought you told me that you didn't know anything about Dog demons and Wolf demon" "We don't really know much about the canine demons but we do know some. So how about it?" Kagome squealed enthusiastically towards her friend "Yes! I told you I wanted to learn! Teach me!!" Sango giggled at her friends antics.

"Well, as you must know, dog demons are pretty much like dogs. And as you may know Dogs are a lot like wolves even if the inuyoukai refuse to admit it" Kagome giggled a bit "What are you laughing about?" Sango asked her in confusion "In my time they recently found out that the wolf and the dog are related and that the creation of dogs came because men bred and raised wolves as pets." Sango frowned a bit and continued "Well I guess that makes sense." Kagome nodded her head quickly and the Taijiya rolled her eyes

"Anyways a pack normally has around 8-15 member. In a pack of canines there is always 2 alphas, a male and a female, which are normally the only animals/demons allowed to breed in a pack, a second in command who looks over most of the other animals, a few betas who are technically at the same level as the second in command, the rest of the pack who normally listen to whatever the alpha's tell them and then the Omegas."

"The Omegas are at the bottom of the pack." She said in a wise voice "Take that toad that follows Seshomaru-sama around." She continued "He is the omega. He is the last to eat (probably) the one who is always being picked on and teased. Omega's don't normally really fit in a group and are normally considered the 'baby sitters' of the pack.

Contrary to what you may believe the Alpha's aren't actually the rulers of the pack, they only have more freedom then the rest of the pack."

"But then what about Seshomaru?"

"He is a demon lord and that is different." Sango told her wisely and in a voice that left no room to argue.

"C'mon, it's late and all signs point to a rainy day tomorrow." Sango got up from the water and grabbed a towel. "Rain.." Kagome looked towards the sky. It wasn't as colorful as it should be…. during the warm seasons that meant rain. "Hey! Wait for me!" Kagome quickly scrambled to follow her friend that was already leaving.

* * ****

"Keh, your back… took you long enough…" The moody half demon spoke from high up in his tree. "Sorry we took so long" Kagome replied cheerfully. "Now who wants ramen?" At the mention of his favorite treat the hanyo hastily jumped from his tree to watch the preparations of his favorite dish.

Kagome smiled and as she cooked the noodles she made a vow to be more careful in the future… maybe she had been a little to hasty.. It had seemed like a good idea back them, to scream at the demon. LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! The demon had come charging and she had released her arrow but as the thing blew up so to did she go flying but her friend had saved her… only to yell at her after… '

I guess that was my fault though, inuyasha had seemed so scared.. I should've told him what I was about to do …or something…' and it was true, the calm and brashness that the hanyou normally held had vanished to a desperate look as he'd tried to catch her before the impact that would surely kill her 'pathetically human' body.

He had caught her and landed in the same instant and his eyes had been covered by his bangs as he'd lightly settled her on the ground. "You ok?" He'd said, and when she'd told him she was fine he had started yelling.

"Don't you dare burn it wench" his voice pierced through her thoughts and she realized that the noodles where in fact finished cooking and soon they'd enlarge and become nasty. Kagome quickly took out a few bowls and started scooping up the noodles into them. She made sure she gave Inuyasha more to appease him for having scared her but of course the hanyou only took his bowl and went back to his tree to eat. "stupid dog" she muttered as she handed out the rest of the bowls to her ragtag team of friends.

"Don't eat to fast Shippo, and blow on it first… its reallllllly hot" She warned the fox cub "Don't worry Kagome! I won't!" He assured her as he took a huge spoonful only to yelp and squealed "ITS HOT ITS HOT ITS HOT" "Keh, the bitch told you it was" Kagome twitch at the insult to her person "Inuyasha…" The hanyou hurriedly tried to finish his bowl of ramen "SIT BOY!" Down came the dog and with him the rest of the soup. BANG! The hanyou kissed the earth and soon after the soup spilt onto his hair and the bowl fell onto his head giving him a comical look.

"WHAT YOU DO THAT FOR BITCH?!" Inuyasha growled as soon as he was free from the subduing spell. "SIT BOY" The spell once again pulled the hanyou off his feet and towards the ground. "YOU'RE SUCH A JERK! WHY DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO INSULT ME?!" as the hanyou came back up again he gave her an odd look and cocked his head to the side.

"But, Kagome.." but the girl from the future did not let him finish as she snapped "I'm going to bed, leave me alone." The hanyou sighed heavily, his ears drooped as he turned and went back to his tree.

"Inuyas-" "SHUT IT MONK! The rest of you should probably get sleep to, we leave at first ray!" And with a growl to show he wasn't kidding he turned and faced the opposite direction.

Shrugging towards Sango, Miroku settled himself against a tree and Sango took out Kagome's spare sleeping bed and soon everyone was asleep.

*****

The next morning, as Inuyasha had said, the inu-tachi found themselves up when the sun had started raising. Kagome, who had checked her wrist watch only to realize it was 5 in the morning had decided to stay in bed for a couple more hours.

"Wake up" A foot nudge her side. "I said, WAKE UP!" The nudging became more insistent and the girl whined and pulled the sleeping bag over her head. "I said WAKE UP DAMMIT!" he practically kicked her, which she did NOT find amusing in the least, and growled at her. "IT'S FIVE IN THE MORNING INUYASHA! IT'S WAY TO EARLY TO BE UP!" but of course, being that they where in feudal Japan, none of them really understood the meaning of her words and went back to clearing up camp.

"I don't CARE what time it is! The only time I know is that it's time to leave! Now GET UP!" The hanyou roared at her but was soon quieted by the pillow that was flung at his head.

"I'm trying to sleep!" Mumbled the girl as she once again pulled the sleeping bag over her head.

"Well I said its time to LEAVE!"

"I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY INUYASHA IM SLEEPY AND IM GONA SLEEP DAMMIT!" Kagome screamed back at him.

"Ahh, young love." Sighed the monk as he watch the 'couple' wistfully. "What did you say monk!?" if looks could kill the look on Kagome's face would've ended his life. " I was just saying how you two made me think of an old married cou-" "If you want to live monk, you will not finish that phrase" Suddenly Inuyasha stood in front of Miroku and the last decided that keeping his tongue in his mouth was probably in his best interest.

"Kagome-Chan, you have to get up. We are supposed to be going back to Kaede-basan (?) before the sun sets and if we don't start now Inuyasha will either make us keep going through the night or sleep through the storm that is supposed to hit." Growling in irritation Kagome finally got up. "Alright Sango, I'm up." The Taijiya smiled at her friend and left to start on breakfast.

Kagome yawned and stretched her arms towards the sky. She could already feel the humidity in the air that she had come to realize came with a storm. Living in the feudal era, where electronics did not exist, she had learn to gauge the weather with the air like the other had. She grumbled a bit as she got up but didn't really do anything but take her uniform out of her bag and get dressed for the day.

Looking down at her uniform Kagome inwardly sighed. 'No wonder the people of this time think I'm some sort of whore… I mean, sure this …thing… is ok in my time but here…well it's just ASKING for trouble… maybe I should ask mom to buy me some jeans or something'

"Kagome? Kaaaaaagoooome??" "huh!? Oh, Shippo, What is it?" The small fox cub grinned up at her "Time to eat" he said as he pulled her hand (and thus her body) towards Sango who was serving out portions.

No sooner had they finished eating that the hanyou turned towards them with a sneer on his face "Now that you humans have eaten we're leaving!" and the group once again set off after having covered the fire.

Kagome, while tiered, was excited to be going back to kaedes. Why you may ask? Because she could get to the bone eaters well and go home to see her family!!

"Innnnnnnnuyaasha!" the teen spoke giddily "What you want wench!" the gruff voice of the hanyou sounded as he flicked an ear in her direction "can I go home for a few days when we get to Kae-" "NO!" "But I didn't even finish what I was about to say!" "Well I already know what you want wench and the answer is NO! We have jewels to find!" The miko's face turned red as her anger built up "YOUR SUCH AN ASS INU-"

Before she could finish a Roar was heard as the first demon of the day was spotted. Growling in annoyance Inuyasha transformed his Tetsusaiga and turned towards the demon.

Like most demons it was large and deformed with huge red eyes and large bloody teeth. Horns sprouted from it's cheeks and his snout like nose hooked up. The thing stood on stumpy legs and its arms seemed to be around the same length as its body. It's skin was made up of white scales and matted black fur which came out only on its back, some parts of its front legs and around its horns. It's front 'paws' resembled those of a human with 7 fingers instead of 5 (including thumb) which ended in talons instead of nails. The beast had no lips and so its retched fangs gleamed nonstop. But this creature was random in appearance; it had fist sized wings coming out of its chin, a stumpy tail that seemed deformed and paper thin and weirder yet it had no claws, nails, talons at the end of its feet, nothing only skin.

"Aren't you an ugly son of a bitch" Growled Inuyasha as he approached the demon. "Hiraikotsu!" Sango yelled as she flung her boomerang at the large beast but the demon would have none of that and with a flick of it's thin tail it sent the boomerang right back at the Taijiya.

"WIND SCAR!" The inu-hanyou yelled when he had the opportunity to hit the deformed creature. The creature was indeed hit and hissed out a low roar of anger as on of its horns feel to the ground with a heavy thud.

"Not feeling so tough now are we!" The hanyou mocked as the demon bristled making its scales stand on end. "Think your little pussy scales can defend you from me?! HA!" And with a yell only a fighter could create the hanyou flew towards the demon with his sword brandished in the air like a banshee. "WIND SCAR" He yelled again as the demon stumbled backwards as if to get away.

"You wont get away that easily!" The hanyou smirked as he hacked at the demons other horn. The demon roared in terror as its other horn feel and it spat out chemicals towards the demon.

"POISON!?" Inyuasha hissed as he covered his nose with his fire rat kimono. "MIROKU! You better be erecting a barrier or else you're all going to be dead in a matter of seconds!" "It's done Inuyasha!" Looking from the side of his eye he could make out the monk, the two girls and two demons surrounded by a small purple barrier which said monk held up.

"WRRRHIE!?" Inuyasha turned towards the demon who was howling. "WRRRRHIE!?" It growled again. Perplex the inu-hanyou looked at the demon and spat "Shut up and fight me you piece of shit!" The demon opened its jaws and released an infuriatingly angry roar then it spat out liquid form poison towards the red clad boy.

"DRRRRRRRIE!" The demon seemed to scream 'die' as the poison flew towards the hanyou at an alarmingly fast rate. "Oh fuck.." growled out the hanyou "BACKLASH WAVE" the hanyou yelled in an attempt to stop the poison from hitting him head on. The powerful twister worked and the poison was sent back towards it creator and the beast yowled in pain as the poison melted its eyes "IRRM BLIRRRND! IRRM BLIRRRRRRRND!" The demon screeched as it thumped its thin, yet powerful, tail on the ground creating a small earthquake.

"HA! You wont be able to do much now eh!? KAGOME!" The hanyou yelled towards the barrier "Where's the shikon?!" "Let me check" Replied the miko. "WILL YOU HURRY UP!?" he growled as he turned towards her. "INUYASHA!" Just as she yelled the inu-hanyou went flying and smashed into a tree, dazed.

The demon, having heard the smashing noise, seemed pleased with itself as it started roaring defiantly. "INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled as she watch the demon sniff out her friend.

"KAGOME-SAMA!" Miroku cried as he tried to stop the girl from running into the poison filled field. Sango was next to follow as she tried to catch up to the girl. "Hiraikotsu!" The large boomerang went flying and ripped the demons arm off. It yowled in pain and turned its terrific eyes towards the two girls.

"Get behind me Kagome!" The miko hastily ran behind her friend and leveled her bow towards the demon. "NOW!" yelled the taijiya and both let there respective weapons fly and combine together before hitting the confused demon. With a pitiful roar the demon fell, only its head remaining.

"Bitches…." Grumbled the Inu-hanyou as he got up and struck the growling demon threw the head.

The demon let one last pitiful growl out before dieing.

"Fucken bastard… now wench! Where's the shikon!?" the miko laughed awkwardly as she looked at Inuyasha "umm… you see… I don't think it had one on him…" Inuyasha face went blank and then went almost blue as he yelled at the girl "NO SHARD?! WHAT THE FUCK KAGOME!? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT SOONER!?" the girl twitched angrily "GRRR! SIT BOY!" She growled angrily. "SIT BOY SIT BOY SIT BOY!" She then turned towards the rest of the group and stalked off with the rest of them in tow.

"Fucken bitch" mumbled the inu-hanyou as he pulled himself out of his hole and proceeded to run to catch up with the rest of the group.
