Hey people! I finally got chapter 3. I couldn't type it on Word, so I let FreeMoment♪ put it on she gets much credit for that. Well, on with the story! Enjoy!
Chapter 3
A lone figure walked through the forest, her Shinidamachū gliding beside her. She suddenly stopped and turned; facing the path she just walked. Her Shinidamachū stopped as well and glided beside her.
I sense a familiar aura coming my way, she thought, should I stay and greet them? But then again, I have no reason to.
Turning back to the path she had yet to walk, she took a step and began her slow walk again.

Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were walking back to the campsite to wait for Inuyasha's return when Miroku caught glance of something gliding in the air.
"Sango, Shippo," he began.
His words only stopped Sango and Shippo in their tracks. They didn't get a chance to respond because she and her Shinidamachū had come into full view.
"It's Kikyo." Miroku stated.
Shippo went from in front of Miroku, to behind Sango.
Kikyo had glanced at everybody, then behind everyone to see the empty path behind them.
"Inuyasha's not here." Miroku said, when he saw where her gaze was.
Kikyo glanced back at Miroku with an emotionless expression.
"Yes, I have noticed that" she said, "I also noticed that the girl, Kagome, is not here as well. Tell me, do you have any knowledge to where they have gone?"
Sango, Miroku, and Shippo said nothing.
"I suppose not then." Kikyo said. "Farewell."
She started walking again. She had passed them and was about to disappear into the forest.
"Kikyo!"
Kikyo stopped, but did not turn. She waited for Miroku to continue.
"Why do you wish to know where Inuyasha is?" Miroku demanded.
Sango and Shippo remained silent. Where was Miroku going with this?
"That is none of your concern." Kikyo responded. "However, I will tell you this. I must find Inuyasha and tell him about what he should know. And, with you not knowing where Kagome or Inuyasha is tells me that I am too late."
She stood still for a moment, and then started walking again, her Shinidamachū gliding beside her.

Damn! What is this stuff? Inuyasha thought, I'm getting out of here!
Inuyasha was making his escape but something seemed to slow him down. What's wrong with me!? I can't run as fast anymore. Oh well, I guess I'm gonna have to slaughter these idiots!
Inuyasha unsheathed the tetsuiga. It began to pulse with its full power.
"Let's see if you want to mess with me now!" Inuyasha growled.
He ran through the fog, trying to find the demons. Something's going on, I lost their scent and I can't even hear if they're moving.
Then, all of the sudden, the tetsuiga returned to its rusty, old form.
"What the hell?!" Inuyasha yelled, confused.
Inuyasha then heard laughter.
---
It was a beautiful day, the sun was shining, the grass is green, the birds were chirping cheerfully…
BEEP... BEEP... BEEP...click.
Kagome woke up by the sound of her alarm clock. Kagome tossed and turned in her bed until she finally sat up.
"I really don't want to go to school today." Kagome said to herself.
"Kagome, hurry up or you'll be late for school!" Kagome heard her mom shout from downstairs.
"Coming!" Kagome said falling back on her pillow.
---
"Kagome, what happened to you? You're all cuts and bruises..." Eri began.
"Yeah, are you sure you're ok to come to school today?" Yuka asked.
"You guys, I'm fine. Not including my massive headache, sore body, and tangled hair, I'm your average, teenage friend." Kagome said, trying to reassure her friends.
"Yeah, but..." At that moment, the bell rang.
"Come on, we're late!" Kagome told them.
The others just ran after her.
---
"Wonder what all that was about," said Shippo.
"Indeed, we might as well look for Inuyasha and warn him about what Kikyo told us." Miroku stated.
"But Inuyasha wanted us to stay away." said Sango.
"But we can't risk it, even though I can't tell what Kikyo was feeling, I think it was quite important." Miroku stated.
"Yeah, but..."
"Sango, we must, for the sake of Inuyasha and Kagome's return."
"...Fine, but only for Kagome. Kirara!" Sango said, summoning the little neko demon.
It then transformed into the beautiful, ferocious, giant cat. "Let's go!" Shippo shouted.
---
"What the hell are you laughing about?!" Inuyasha screamed to the source of laughter.
"At the way you look! You almost look like a vulnerable human! It suits you well!" the demon replied.
Inuyasha was confused. Human? What in the world is he...? Inuyasha then felt his body become weak. What the...? Inuyasha's hair then turned black, and his fangs and claws vanished. What's happening? This only happens during the night of the new moon. I still have one week left! Inuyasha thought looking at his hands. He then reached up to feel for his ears. No wonder I couldn't hear them. Inuyasha then realized what the red mist did.
"Well, are we going to fight or not?" One demon asked, even though Inuyasha couldn't tell exactly who it was.
How do I get out of this? Inuyasha thought, I'm almost a human and I can't fight that good with human strength. Damnit!
"Well, if you won't answer, then we'll just kill you now!" one of the demon said.
Inuyasha saw one demon spring out from a tree and charge at him. Inuyasha closed his eyes, and waited for impact.
