Yoru no Hime

Chapter Two

"Ye have caused quite a commotion already, young lady." An elder lady came from a different hut than Kagome, with her hands behind her back. She had to be about 70 years old, or so. She walked over to me and held out her hands. "I am Kaede, this is my village."

"Koyoko.." I whispered, and her wrinkled eyes crinkled even more as she took my hands in her own. She was warm, and loving, there was some sort of motherly vibe I got from her.

"So, the prophecy has begun I see." She whispered, and her kind brown eyes stared into my own.

"Prophecy?" The loud, white haired male said from behind me. It kind of sunk in that everyone's eyes were on me.

"What's with all the noise...?" A miniature little person with a bushy tail came out of the same hut that Sango had exited from, and my eyes widened. Were all of these people...demons? I started to feel myself be overcome with shock, and found it hard to breathe. "Woah, who's this?"

"Some weird girl who I found by the Bone Eater's Well. Apparently she knows Kagome." I felt a nerve snap, and turned to look at him.

"I have a name you know." I walked over to him and crossed my arms. "Koyoko."

"InuYasha." He crossed his arms as well, and I shook my head, sighing.

"So what are you talking about, me causing a commotion? A prophecy? I literally just got here." I looked over to Kaede, with curious eyes.

"Hmm..yes." She smiled. "I will explain more in the morning. It is late, and everyone needs to get some sleep."

"You can sleep with me, we haven't had a sleepover in forever!" Kagome exclaimed, happily. But honestly I was just confused. Why was I here? What was it that I saw coming from the well? Who pulled me in? Why was Kagome here? I sighed, as Kagome led me into her hut which was nicer than I expected. It fit a couple of beds inside, a small table and a pot over a fire which I assumed was their version of a stove.

"Kagome, where the hell am I supposed to sleep? Ya can't just invite her in here without asking me!" InuYasha walked inside and huffed, crossing his arms, once again. I had a feeling he did that a lot.

"InuYasha, stop being so rude! Remember my first day here? I was so scared! Go sleep on a tree branch or something. She doesn't need your loud snoring keeping her awake."

"Feh, fine." I could hear him mumble as he exited the hut, closing the door behind him as he left. I raised my eyebrow at Kagome as I sat next to her on the bed, crossing my legs.

"Explain." I demanded, and she sighed, nodding.

"Where do I even begin...?" She whispered, looking down.

"Well, let me guess. You were never even sick to begin with were you?" I saw a blush come to Kagome's cheeks as she shook her head. She tucked a strand of blue-black hair behind her ear and looked into my eyes.

"No.. I wasn't. But you have to understand, I've been doing something very important."

"I didn't realize that canoodling with demons was that important." Kagome giggled, and shook her head, and sighed.

"There's this very bad demon out there, trying to get the pieces to make the whole version of this.." She pulled out little pieces of what looked like a jewel in a little glass container that was on a necklace tucked into her shirt. "It's called the Shikon Jewel, and he wants to become a full demon with it. I don't even want to...imagine the things that would happen if he actually got it." She looked down to the shards in her hand.

"Okay, but where do you come in the picture? What do you have to do with it?" I leaned back against the wall behind me. 'What do I have to do with it?' I asked myself.

"You know.. I don't really know or understand why. I think maybe it was just fate, or something. I'm the reincarnation of this old priestess, Kikyo who was killed fifty years ago in this time, she's Kaede's sister. Her and..InuYasha used to be together, in love." The way her words fell off her tongue, I kind of got the hint that she may have feelings for this, InuYasha. For whatever reason that may be. I continued to listen to her speak, as my eyes fluttered shut. I was way more tired than I had known, and before I knew it.. I was asleep.

The next morning, I awoke and no one was in the hut with me, but I heard commotion coming from outside. It was going to be a hot day, I could tell, as I was already sweating. I got up and stood, stretching as I walked out the door. Looking around, I actually got a nice view of the village. It was quaint, plenty of people bustling around, staying busy. And oddly enough, there were chickens running around. That wasn't something you saw every day in Tokyo.

Honestly, I thought that maybe I would wake up in my own bed and the whole day yesterday would have been a dream. But, of course, it wasn't.

I looked around and saw Kagome talking with the girl from last night, as she looked over to me, and her face was in shock. Oh God...what happened to me now? I asked myself, sighing, and walked over to them.

"Koyoko...you look completely normal." She smiled as she got closer. "Your eyes are normal, and you don't have that crescent anymore." I looked over into a window, and from what I could see in my reflection, I did indeed look normal.

"Well that's a relief. Maybe I just had an allergic reaction to something here. Maybe I'm allergic to demons or something." I smiled, sticking out my tongue.

"Well the only demon around here is InuYasha and he's a half demon." Kagome giggled, and a little ball of orange jumped up in front of me.

"Except me! I'm a full fledged demon!"

"Awww how cute! What's your name?" I asked, catching it before it fell.

"Shippo, nice to meetcha! I'm a fox demon." He giggled, giving me a hug. I set him down next to me and looked around. I really wanted to speak to that woman, I believe she said her name was Kaede.

"Hey Kagome, have you seen Kaede?" I asked, and Kagome nodded.

"Mmmhm! She went over by the Bone Eaters Well this morning. She should probably be over there still. Just head that way and follow the trail." She smiled, and pointed in the direction that I had remember coming from the night before. I nodded and started walking. I took a deep breath in, noticing how clear the air was compared to back home. It smelled fresh, and clean. Something that wasn't easy to find in 2017.

It took about five minutes to make it back to the well, where I saw Kaede sitting on the edge, looking at something in her hands. "Kaede?" I called out as I got closer. She looked up and placed her hand on her chest.

"Ah, child ye scared me." She let out a breath, and patted the spot next to her. I walked over to sit next to her and looked at her quizzically. "I see ye changed back. Just as the prophecy stated.." Kaede murmured quietly, as she held out her hand revealing a crystal necklace in the shape of a crescent moon. It was glowing a light lavender color in her hand, and I couldn't help but stare in awe. "Ye can take it, it is for ye."

"W...what?" I reached my hand to touch it and as soon as my finger made contact, I felt a shock of electricity rush through me. "Ah!" I yelled, holding onto my finger. "It doesn't seem like it wants me to touch it..." I murmured, and reached my hand back out to hold the necklace. "What do you mean this is mine?"

"I can only imagine the questions ye must have. Kagome had quite a few of her own when she first came here."

"Well yes, I would really like to know about this 'prophecy' you keep speaking of." My eyes stayed glued to the crystal which turned to a blueish glow as I held onto it.

"Yes," she patted her lap softly, looking into the distance, seeming to get lost in thought. "When I was a young girl, me father used to tell stories to me sister and myself of a celestial maiden named Kaguya. She was extremely powerful, said to have come from the moon, thrived in and would change form in the nighttime. Ye see, one day she became enraged and attacked many villages and a local monk locked her away inside a mirror. However, she did conceive a child while she was here on Earth. The prophecy states that one day her ancestor will come back and help defeat the darkness surrounding us all."

"The demon Kagome was speaking of..." I whispered, shaking my head in disbelief. "But what makes you think that that has anything to do with me?"

"Well, ye did look completely different last night and it is daytime now...as far as I can tell, ye resemble a human. From the scrolls I have seen, ye have an uncanny resemblance of Kaguya. As well as, I have never seen that stone react to anything before, and it started glowing as soon as ye came into me presence. " My eyes began to water as I stared back down at the stone in my hands in disbelief. "If I am correct, and ye are in fact her distant relative, that stone will help control ye powers."

"How did you come across this stone? Who gave it to you?" I asked, so many more questions arose from all this information.

"Ye guess is as good as mine, me dear. It's been in the possession of this village for as long as I can remember." She patted my leg and stood, smiling. "I think ye will do great things if ye let yeself believe. Just open ye eyes, ye are obviously here for a reason." She started to slowly walk back to the village and I sat in silence, before reaching behind my neck and clasped the necklace on securely, it fit just like a choker, sitting at the base of my throat. Even if I wasn't this 'Kaguya's' relative, I could at least stay and try to figure out my own purpose for being here.

I walked back to the village in silence, lost in my thoughts, before not too long I smelled food coming from my destination. My stomach gave me an untimely reminder that I was very very hungry and I placed my hands over it, groaning softly. I walked into the village, and saw a man dressed in blue robes, with a small ponytail tied at the nape of his neck, conversing with the people that Kagome knew. I cleared my throat as they looked over to me and the man's eyes widened. He had a hungry look in his eye and practically ran over to me.

"Miss! Oh, you must be the one!" He gasped, falling to his knees, grabbing my hands.

"Umm.." I looked around awkwardly before settling my eyes back onto his. "That's what I've been hearing? So I guess so."

"Ah! Finally!" He happily rubbed his face on the back of my hands, smiling. "I have found the woman who will bear my children!" My eyes widened, and I felt his hand snake around to my butt as he grasped it. "Nice and firm, ah so hard to find." I looked up and the girl, Sango, her face began to redden as she stood, stomping over to us.

"MIROKU! STOP HARASSING KAGOME'S FRIEND!" She grabbed him by the collar of his robe and dragged him back over to the group. Good god, she had to be strong as hell to be able to do that... I smiled awkwardly, and walked over to them and noticed all the food around them.

"Hungry?" Kagome offered, and I nodded anxiously, sitting next to her. She handed me a bowl of rice covered in some sort of beef stew. I was never one to turn down food, especially food that smelled so homemade. I took in a deep whiff and sighed, happily. Kagome, giggled smiling at me as she ate her food.

"Sooo... Koyoko.. have you tried the magical ramen stuff that Kagome brings us?" InuYasha asked me, as he stuffed his face with food, and Kagome sighed, shaking her head.

"InuYasha, I told you, that stuff's everywhere where I'm from."

"Actually no, InuYasha. Why don't you tell me about it?" I looked at him wide eyed, and winked quickly at Kagome as he stared at me, mouth wide open. He definitely seemed flabbergasted.

"Are you serious?! It's the best thing I've ever had in my life! It's these perfectly cooked noodles and a tiny little package that has some sort of magical flavor in it- I just- agh. I can't even explain it to you! You'll have to try it one day." He shook his head and stuffed his mouth with more food, as I laughed to myself.

"So, what did Lady Kaede have to tell you?" Sango asked me, her hands clasped together. "Will you be joining us on our travels?" I looked down to my feet as I felt something furry rub up against my leg, and saw the little cat thing that Sango had with her the night before. At least...it sort of looked like a cat. I wasn't really sure what it was. "Oh sorry, that's just Kirara. She likes to inspect new people." I reached my hand down to pet it, as it sniffed my hand and licked my finger.

"I.. I mean.. if you all will have me, I would love to travel with you. I don't think I'll really understand my purpose in this time by just staying here." I took small bites as I ate.

"Well I don't see what the issue would be." Miroku spoke up, and I eyed him cautiously. "We have enough people here that if something happened we would be able to defend you easily."

"Feh, as if she'd need it." InuYasha murmured as he continued to stuff his face.

"What do you mean?" Kagome asked him. He sat up and looked back at her.

"Ya mean she didn't tell you? It was crazy. When I went to inspect what the new smell was, and it turned out to be her... these two guys came up on 'er and tried to attack 'er.. while I was takin' out one of them, she broke the other guys neck without even touching 'im!" All eyes went to me, and I threw my hands up.

"Don't ask me, I don't even know.. it just kinda happened."

"Well, hopefully we can help give you some answers." Sango smiled, as Kirara jumped into my lap and nuzzled down. Shippo nodded and cheered in agreeance.

"Thanks.. I really really hope so too."

(Third P.O.V)

Far above the village, Kagura floated on a feather looking down. "Hmm.. I don't like the presence this girl is giving off.." She narrowed her eyes and gasped. "She looks like... I.. I have to get back to Naraku immediately." She flew away in the blink of an eye.

"Huh..?" InuYasha looked up, his nose moving as he sniffed the air. His pupils shrank as he searched the sky.

"What's wrong, InuYasha?" Kagome asked, and he began to eat again.

"Nothin', just thought I smelled somethin' fishy."

"Hmm.. okay.. so, tomorrow we head back out on the road. Rest up while you can Koyoko, we've got a lot of walking to do." Kagome smiled, and Koyoko looked at her, nodding.

'What have I gotten myself into?' Koyoko thought as she bit her lip.

Alrighty friends, hopefully you enjoyed that! Sesshomaru will be making his appearance soon, and I cannot wait!
