Chapter 3: What's with those ears?
Disclaimer: I don't own anything. If I did I would totally not be writing this.
Kagome awoke to find herself lying in the grass just outside the well. When she checked herself she didn't appear to be injured in any way. At least whatever it was that had grabbed her before hadn't made it through the well with her. Then she noticed it. Bright orange spiky hair that belonged the teen she had met earlier.
'How did he get through the well,' she thought to herself, 'and what's up with that sword?'
The Ichigo that now laid before her unconscious was now dressed in a black kimono with a very large sword, though not nearly as large as as the Tetsaiga that Inuyasah wielded, wrapped in what appeared to be bandages of some sort.
Then he started to come around. "What the hell happened last night," said Ichigo as he slowly got to his feet completely oblivious to Kagome's presence.
"Kagome!" came Inuyasha's harsh voice.
'Uh oh,' thought Kagome, 'this can't be good.'
Ichigo
He had just woken up with sun in his face wondering what the hell had happened when he remembered the events that had transpired the night before. He slowly brought himself to his feet when he heard a familiar voice shouting.
"Kagome!"
Ichigo turned to find himself facing both the girl Kagome and the white haired punk from the day before.
'Well I better get going,' Ichigo thought before turning to leave only to find his exit interrupted.
"Hey it's you. How the hell did you get here and what were you doing to Kagome? Did Naraku send you?" Came the loud and angry voice of The boy he recalled was named Inuyasha.
'Wait. They can see me?' Ichigo thought to himself before turning to face them once again.
"You can see me?" He asked
"You're standing right in front me how could I not. What do you think I am blind?" Came Inuyasha's harsh reply.
"What the… you shouldn't be able to see me."
"Sure. Now tell me. Where is Naraku?"
"Who the hell is Naraku?"
"Don't play dumb with me" growled Inuyash as he unsheathed his sword whish, to Ichigo's surprise, Grew to a size greater to that of Zangetsu. It had to be some sort of zanpakuto there was no way a normal sword just grew like that.
"Hey I don't want to fight. I don't even know how I got here let alone where here is" Ichigo tried to reason Ichigo but the other Guy was already in motion.
So Ichigo did the only logical thing he could think of. He drew out Zangetsu and prepared to defend himself.
Kagome
Kagome watched as both Inuyasha and Ichigo prepared to fight. She had to stop this somehow.
"Inuyasha stop, I don't think he wants to hurt me" she pleaded
"Kagome this guy… He reeks of death more than any corpse I have ever encountered" argued Inuyasha.
Kagome quickly used her Miko powers to try and seeif what Inuyasha was saying was true. And then she felt his aura. 'What! That shouldn't even be possible. It's like he's dead and alive at the same time'. It appeared as if she would have to let Inuyasha handle this.
Inuyasha then lunged at Ichigo and swung the Tetsaiga. The orange haired guy wasn't even moving. 'Feh, must be frozen in fright' thought Inuyasha to himself as brought his sword down to have it connect with… nothing. 'What the where did he go?'
He turned to find Ichigo running through the forest.
"Coward!" yelled Inuyasha before giving chase with kagome on his back
"Kagome?"
"Yes?"
"How did he do that? Does he have any shards?"
"No he doesn't have any shards".
'How did he do that,' She wondered to herself, 'it wa as if he just vanished then reappeared.'
They soon found themselves in an open clearing void of any trees or foliage.
"Hey are done running you coward?" Taunted Inuyasha.
"I wasn't running I just didn't want either of you to get hurt by accident" Came Ichigo's response.
"Enough talk. Let's see you dodge this. Wind Scar!" Inuyasha brought his sword down unleashing its power.
As The Wind Scar neared him Ichigo brought his sword down in a downward arc saying only two words. "Getsuga Tensho"
'The hell' Ichigo thought, 'guess it really is a zanpakuto. Oh well here goes nothing'
"Getsuga Tensho!" he yelled as he brought Zangetsu down and the spirit energy burst forth in a violent stream that could cleave a mountain in two.
The Getsuga Tensho met the enemy's attack. The two attacks struggled with each other before erupting into an explosion of energy that rocked the earth kicking up an enormous cloud of dust. Ichigo used this to his advantage flash stepping behind his opponent and bringing down the hilt of Zangentsu onto the white haired guy's head knocking him out for the time being
He then turned his attention to the girl only to find she now had an arrow notched in a bow aimed right at him.
"Hey wait! Don't point that thing at me!" he yelled.
"What did you do to Inuyasha?" asked Kagome in an angry tone.
"Him? What did you do to me? First I try to stop you from killing yourself now I'm stuck in some weird forest with some guy trying to kill me."
Kagome
Wait did this guy really not know anything about what was going on? And that attack. It completely nullified the Wind Scar and with minimal effort to. Just who was this guy?
"Would you believe me if I told you, you were in the Feudal era?"
"I'd say it was some elaborate hoax created by Aizen if I was certain if he was dead or not" Came his immediate reply.
"Kagome!" Came the voices or Miroku and Sango as came into view.
"What happened to Inuyasha?" Asked Miroku
"He knocked him out" replied Kagome pointing to Ichigo.
"Is he a threat?" Asked Sango.
"No no no, I don't think he even knows what's going on"
"Why you" Came the voice of Inuyasha as he slowly rose to his feet getting his sword back up ready to cleave his opponent in two for humiliating him like that.
Ichigo in turn proceeded to get back into his stance as well but paused and blinked owlishly at Inuyasha. "Hey. What's with those ears?"
'Is he serious' thought Kagome 'he just now noticed'
"That's it stop mocking me" yelled Inuyasha before leaping at Ichigo one more.
"Sit Boy!" yelled Kagome as Inuyasha face planted into the dirt.
"Um Ichigo right? If you follow me to the village I can try to explain what's going"
"okay?" came his confused response as he started following her.
"Come on Inuyasha time to go" called Kagome.
"Y-you w-wench" cam his weak reply.
Ichigo
Ichigo just followed behind silently. Things just kept getting weirder and weirder.
(A/N: Finally done I hope that turned out ok. I'm not sure how well I did the action scenes. I'll try to make the chapters longer and more detailed nest time)
