"What is he yelling about now?" Shippo asked. Sango and Miroku were looking around. They too had heard a loud sound, but didn't know what it was.
"Shippo, you know what that was?" Sango asked. She was holding her cat demon Kirara. But Kirara jumped to the ground and smelled the air. Then, her ears perked up and she hissed before she transformed into her larger, fanged form; it was bigger than a bear.
"Kirara?" Miroku asked.
"That was Inuyasha screaming like a banshee," Shippo said. He climbed up Miroku until he was on his shoulder. He cocked his head, as if it would help him hear better.
"Something's wrong." Sango changed into her Demon Slayer uniform. How did she do that so fast? With razor focus, she pulled everyone onto Kirara's back. "Let's go!" And they were off.
Kirara's eyesight was better than most, and she saw a small red figure jumping throughout the trees. She made a noise indicating to Sango.
"Good job, girl. Follow him."
How could I let this happen?
Inuyasha was jumping higher, longer and faster than he ever had in his life. Kagura's stupid feather was fast, but not fast enough. He was keeping good time, enough to keep her in sight.
"Kagura!" he yelled trying to get her attention
"Ah, Inuyasha." She looked down at him. Somehow, she steered the thing and talked to him at the same time. "Good, you got Naraku's message. It would've been a waste if you missed it."
"Give her BACK!" Inuyasha ran faster now. If he gained enough speed, then maybe. . .
"You want her?" Kagura teased. She pulled out her stupid fan. "Then come a get your precious lover." Then she waved her fan and blades of wind shot out. Inuyasha pulled out his sword to defend himself easily. But, it had slowed him down; he was farther behind Kagura now.
"URG!" he growled like a frustrated German Shepard, then ran as fast as his legs would allow. I can't lose her. I can't lose her.
Desperate, and lacking of total rational thinking at the moment, Inuyasha did something, well, stupid. He lifted his Tetsusaiga.
"Wind Scar!" he shouted.
Good news and bad news. Good news: it did what it was supposed to do; hit Kagura's flying feather. The bad news? Kagome was ON that feather.
But it was only after when Inuyasha realized what he'd done. He destroyed the feather, but now Kagome was falling. Quickly, Inuyasha jumped into the air, arms in position to catch the falling girl who was unconscious. "Kagome! Wake Up!"
CRACK! Inuyasha was lying on his stomach. An attack from behind. He coughed and looked up trying to find who had done that so he'd know who chop in half with his sword.
"Nice to see you again Inuyasha."
Inuyasha growled again and was back on his bare feet, sword at the ready. He recognized that voice and hearing it made his blood boil.
"What do you want with Kagome, Hakudōshi?" Each word was spat out like vemon. Dogs are very territorial and do not like when unfriendly strangers intrude on their home.
He was floating in his red sphere barrier. Kagura was inside with him with Kagome was over her shoulders, still unconscious. Inuyasha growled.
"Don't want to spoil the surprise, Inuyasha." Hakudōshi sneered. "Considering how much trouble Naraku has to go through."
"Hiraikotsu!" Sango's weapon came spinning; it hit the barrier, but only enough to shake it a little.
"Inuyasha!" Miroku yelled. He jumped off Kirara and stood next to Inuyasha, hands on his rosary.
"No, you'll hurt Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted.
"Kagura has Kagome!" Shippo shouted from Kirara's back. Sango and Miroku's eyes widened when they realized that their small fox friend was right. They had Kagome trapped behind an impenatrable barrier.
"Wise choice, Inuyasha." The barrier started to fade. "Naraku is waiting in the East. If you want to see your beloved again, you'll have to find him first." And the red sphere was gone.
"IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER!" The large tree toppled over. The tenth one to do so.
"You can't go, Inuyasha," Shippo pleaded as clung to his friend's back as he sped through the forest at top speed. "Naraku's trap is so obvious!"
"I know that! IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER!" Another tree went down. They weren't in his way.
"I'm not leaving her alone with Him!"
Shippo started to cry. "I love Kagome too! But we have to find another way to save her, together. One that won't get her killed!"
Without losing any speed, he reached down and plucked the small fox demon from his leg where he clung. "Shut up Shippo." And he tossed the young one aside as he kept running and running. And he wasn't going to stop.
"JERK!" Shippo yelled. Then he yelled for a ride, Sango had been trying to keep up with the red blur up ahead.
"We've brought you the girl." Kagura took Kagome off her shoulders and laid her on the ground. She made a small grunt. She would wake up soon.
"What exactly do you plan on doing with her?"
Naraku, the most evil being, turned around and made sure these two had done their job, then laughed in his throaty, evil way. "Just a little surprise I've planned for Inuyasha and all his little friends." He laughed again as he held in his hands an almost finished Shikon Jewel.
