WELL I am so glad every one loves my story it really means something when people tell you that you're a great author…so SUCK ON THAT YOU BASTERED ENGLISH TEACHER MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Anyway I feel compelled to clear something up. Kagome is already the reincarnation of Kikyou and therefore cannot also be the reincarnation of Airah, Airah has sort of unintentionally possessed Kagome. BUT there is a connecting between the Inu group and Airah but you have to read and find out what binds them try and guess what it is I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

chapter 4 .That son of a bitch

The cat statue shared a vision of over 50 years, a boy around the age of 13 snuck his way into the temple and managed to crawl his way into the very room that they were in.

The boy was skinny and ordinary but one look in his eyes and all you could see was a black soul. The boy searched the room and picked up various gold items and stashed them away in his haori.

The boy laughed menacingly and acted like he was playing a game it was like the he had no effects of the woods or any curses that he may have been warned about. Pure greed and selfishness radiated of his being.

The crew watched the boy but could not do anything to stop him for one they could not be seen, heard or touched by him and to a force seemed to have them glued to the spot the held Kagome.

The nameless boy scrummaged around the back of the room but stopped finally laying his eyes on the book stand the Kagome and Inuyasha were at moments before.

But this time a book filled the blank space, a large book roughly the size of a regular school bag about half the size of Kagome's bag (which is still freaking huge)

The book was made of a rosy coloured dragon skin which made it really tough and on the cover was the silver iris flowers stitched over the top and snaking its way around the edges. The book was bound together by gold shackles and in curvaceous gold writing had 'book of shadows'

The boy dropped everything in his hand and picked up the heavy book, the first page was written in the same writing as the front 'property of Airah"

He flipped the first page over and the book instantly pulsated, the sense of magic both and good and evil flooded the room.

The boy's eyes widened fascinated by what he was spells, hexes, curses, potions everything and more was written in pages in front of his sinister mind. A red warning label signified spells that were dangerous or of the dark arts and there were a lot of them, but for nearly every enchantment in the book was a counter curse or solution.

The boy smirked and a plot filled his devious mind he grabbed the book and carried it to the village he belonged too.

Unknown to the boy the book he took was an item that was cursed and the statue that was guarding the door had sprung to life to follow the little thief.

More demon statues followed the boy once or twice he turned around to see what was following him but never saw anything.

The senary around the group fast forwarded to flash shots of the village being terrorise by the stone demons in search of what was stolen.

There were plagues of death and disease that had gone on for what looked like years people were being killed by the stone statues at random and unceremoniously. But the boy only stood unharmed protecting himself by one of the spells in the book so the demon statues could not touch him.

He smiled at the death that was happening in the village and laughed evilly at the peoples attempts to run away and protect there loved ones.

Finally years passed before everyone's eyes and that boy was now a man and by the looks of him wealthy no doubt he had the book to thank for that. And there it was the book of shadows in his possessive arms, he was standing on the perch of his dojo with an evil glare.

The next think they new the stone statues were back and the entire town was on fire.

The stone demons had found away after many years of terror to hunt down the thief of the book. They were chasing him to an oddly familiar place.

Inuyasha frowned the new location was so familiar but he couldn't quite put his finger on it, the man had the book tightly clutched within his arms a look of fright and terror on his face, the stone demons had him surrounded near a cave.

The stony jaws of the creatures opened and all at one a heart wrenching burst of flames cracked through the air that was uneasily calm until that point. The man screamed out in pain and dropped the book to the ground that would not by burnt because of the dragon skin protecting it.

From all angles the man could see was blue and red flames burning his eyes and skin and hair every inch of him was on fire and it would not stop. His blood curdling scream fell upon deaf ears.

His blood spilling and burning to the ground, the man fell to the ground and his screaming was heard no more. The statues closed there mouths and the fire finally stopped.

"awe Shippo look away" said Kagome to the little kit who was near tears at the sight he had just seen and he did as he was told. The others were struggling to keep the bile taste in there mouths at bay and Miroku was suddenly very glade he had not taken anything.

The stone demons backed away revealing a bloody burnt looking figure lying in a crumpled heap in the floor.

It was a miracle he had not been turned to ash by the force of the screaming fire.

His hand suddenly twitched and Sango jumped a little as did Kagome but focused her attention on the man.

The man was alive after such an attack, the stone creatures had used all there energy on killing the man but somehow he lived.

The man smirked ever so faintly and mumbled something under his breath, a pass age from the book he had learnt, instantly the demons surrounding him stopped moving it was an anti curse that he apparently only just know understood.

Some demons crumbled away into nothing and the others fled back on the curses orders.

But one remained the one that Kagome had her hands on this demon statue hid in the shadows to make sure that the man would die of his injuries and if not it would be the one to make the final blow.

Days passed and the man lay still until one day a priestess from the neighbouring village stumbled upon the dieing man and aided him out of pity.

The group gasped it was Kikyou "K…Kikyou" Inuyasha stuttered out shocked at the vision he was looking at.

Now he new why this place looked familiar it was near Keade's village a place she had once taken him to talk about the thief that Kikyou pitied and helped.

'that son of a bitch' he thought watching Onigumo take advantage of Kikyou's hospitality leading in an event that would change Inuyasha's life for ever.

The creature watched Kikyou aid the man on and off and a severe evil filled the cave that she harboured him in.

"NO WAY…that must mean that this man is Onigumo before he turned into Naraku" gasped Inuyasha, he could feel the hatred for him all over again.

The vision continued days later Kikyou did not return, inside the cave Onigumo was at his last strands of life but he used a spell from the book and called forth the demons that made him Naraku.

At that moment the stone Creature felt the spell stopping it from killing Onigumo lift as he died and a new different being full of the same evil emerged.

The book was not in site so the creature had no reason to stay and left for only the beings that stole from the temple would but haunted and hunted down if Naraku was to find the book in one piece the curse would not find him for this new being would counter the fact that he did not take it from the temple.

There vision went blank again and they found themselves back in the temple.

"Well know we know what Naraku did before he came across you and Kikyou" Miroku said to Inuyasha as much as the other jaw dropped companions breaking the shocked silence.

"That would explain how he managed to become Naraku in the first place he had some help from that book" Inuyasha grinned out bitterly.

Kagome removed her hand from the stone demons head and sighed angrily "that son of a bitch!" she spat out angrily voicing Inuyasha's thoughts as she sat down on the base of the statues feet with her head propped up on her hands.

"What's wrong Kagome?" Sango looked down at her friend a little puzzled at her actions, she had just discovered the ugly truth about Naraku's passed and presence and she was depressed about it.

"I want that book" she said simply, looking down at the ground "were in trouble if he still has it" she mumbled out to the ground.

Inuyasha had finally had enough Kagome's strange new knowledge and cryptic behaviour was getting to him.

"ok that's it. It time you started explaining Kagome!" Inuyasha growled out he wanted answers and he was going to get them.

Kagome looked up at him in confusion but also realised that Sango and Miroku her standing right next to him and nodding in agreement.

"you have been acting weird ever since you brought that orb back, you know things that nobody else in hell could possibly know, you all of a sudden want a spell book THEN you out of the blue know everything about an ancient temple that you have only just discovered and know you show us this image of Naraku from a statue, if you know all this new stuff then you HAVE to know what has happened to you and you are gonna tell us what it is right NOW!" Inuyasha yelled and demanded as firmly has he could with out trying to sound to harsh.

Kagome looked up at him with fear in her eyes and glanced at Sango and Miroku for a little support but they only looked down at her agreeing with Inuyasha they all felt like they were being kept in the dark and needed Kagome to tell them what was up with her.

But none of them wanted to hurt her feelings by yelling like Inuyasha did but sometimes you just have to be cruel to be kind.

Kagome looked like she was about to run away and cry at all of Inuyasha's yelling, but something inside her clicked and her mind just went blank.

Kagome's quivering lip paused and it seemed like she had frozen for a second, her eyes rolled into the back of her head and took in a steady deep breath as though it was the first breath she had taken in years.

She rolled her head back taking in all the oxygen her lungs would let her until she breathed out again letting her head roll forwards and down so her thick hair cover her eyes,

But not the smirk that grew wide on her face.

She looked back up and Inuyasha and the others in the eye, the utmost confidence danced in her newly transformed aura that everyone caught onto.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha you definitely ask to may questions" Kagome pointed her finger at Inuyasha grinning.

The others took a step back from Kagome, her sudden change of attitude and her smug reply had caught them by surprise.

Kagome tilted her head up and revealed the whites of her eyes to be emerald green and her once brown orbs to be golden and green.

"K…Kagome what happened to you?" Sango look really worried and went to place a comforting hand on her friends shoulder but was pushed away when Kagome stood up tall and proud.

"No not Kagome!" Kagome said while she stood, a broad devious smirk crossed her rosy lips.

"What!" Inuyasha screwed his face up utterly confused.

Miroku was the only one who remained calm and stoic then finally something clicked in his mind "Airah!" he said stoically, not once removing his gaze from Kagome's face.

She snapped her head his why immediately and smiled "I new you were a smart bunch, yes I am Airah but…" she was cut off by a certain silver haired someone.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN KAGOME'S BODY DEMON" Inuyasha growled out and was tempted to draw his tetsusaiga but looking at Kagome's body forced him to stop.

Airah looked at Inuyasha and rolled her eyes at him she could even hear Kagome's sigh from within her own mind.

"Stupid…IF. you. Would. Let. Me. Finish. please" she said slowly through gritted teeth at him. When Inuyasha's temper subdued she put on a cheery smile like nothing had ever happened.

"as I was saying I am Airah but only in my spirit form, Kagome is not in any danger by my possessing her as it is only temporary" Airah said calmly wanting to get the fact across to Kagome's friends fast that she was in no real danger, what with the way she had been watching how protective they are of her especially that hanyou.

She was about to continue when the monk stepped in "why only temporary why are you even possessing Kagome?" he said grasping his staff and sutras in case he would be forced to exorcise the demon queens spirit.

Airah new what his intensions were but smiled at him none the less.

"temporary because if I am in her body for too long she will be weakened greatly and may die as a result and as for possessing her in the first place…" Airah stopped she needed to think about this one.

She new what the reason was but did not fully understand seeing as if was by accident.

The others noticed her hesitation but said nothing only waited in anxiety, even Inuyasha had sweat forming on his brow.

He was in a position were could not protect Kagome and he didn't like it one bit.

Airah closed her eyes and sighed before opening them "it was an accident" she muttered softly but everyone heard.

"What how can you 'accidentally' possess a persons body there has to be some intention for it" Inuyasha yelled outraged and dumbstruck at how something as serious as this is just an accident.

"Well it was. My intensions were for one of my trusted miko's to find the orb I placed here and use the power within to guide them to my chambers so that I may be resurrected, but all of my kingdoms priestesses were killed after the war and I was forced to remain in a state of unrest" Airah looked down as though she was ashamed to bring the memory up.

Miroku furrowed his brows, as a monk he new a lot about miko's and resurrections, possessions and stuff like that but this was truly an unusual situation.

One phrase the demon mentioned was troubling him "you say that you were in a state of unrest meaning that you are not actually dead?" he said looking confused.

Sango's eyes widened 'surly this demon could not still be alive' she studded Kagome's figure that moved not like usual she looked proud and confident and powerful, not in the kind hearted way she usually did.

Airah smiled once more and nodded "no I am not dead…yet but know that my soul has been awakened I will need my body back sooner rather then later or there may be side effects for my being bonded like this"

"Huh?" everyone one side clearly they had missed something.

Airah sighed a sharp pain in the side of Kagome's head was telling her that Kagome was starting to struggle being apart from her body for so long.

"When I said it was an accident before I meant something more then possessing her. the reason I possessed Kagome in the first place was because the moment she touched my sacred orb her unusually strong miko powers somehow managed to fuse with my magic in the orb"

"Hang on a second you telling me you and Kagome have bonded now!" Inuyasha looked dumbstruck but though that it would explain the change in her scent.

Airah nodded "my magic is similar to her miko power, it is not necessarily demon magic, I have only ever told one person this so you must all keep this to yourselves until further notice go that!" everyone nodded in agreement.

"Well I am also a half demon but the other part of me is not human" Airah said almost dangerously giving them even more reason not to blab.

Shippo finally sensing that Airah was not a threat joined in on the conversation "but if your not part human what are you?" je said innocently gazing up with puppy dog eyes.

Airah looked at Shippo and her face softened there was something about the young kit that made her heart melt and ache at the same time, she picked him up and hugged him

"I am part elf, my mother was a creature from other lands she was a witch among her elfish kind so she is where I got my magic from elf magic is very spiritual and therefore it is similar to a miko's magic and that's how I think we became bonded" said Airah playing with Shippo in her arms.

"Well is it permanent?" Inuyasha said as he watched Kagome's body paying with Shippo as if he were her pup or something.

Airah looked at him and shrugged.

"probably but our magic being bonded would only make her stronger but if anything more between us was to bond from now on she would risk being infected with my demon blood, the elf side of me is fine as there are so many similarities between humans an elves but my demon blood could be fatal"

She said it like she was reading of a warning label on a poisons bottle.

Inuyasha's face paled at the very though of Kagome dieing like that and decided at that point that the sprit might be trustworthy.

"So now we know what happened this morning but what now? And what the fuck was with that vision and the stone demon thing, and you still haven't told me how Kagome knows all these new things and stuff or was that you before?" Inuyasha said in his usual impatient tone.

"well not entirely I put some of my memories in the orb to help the miko that found my orb they would know were to look for the book and find the map inside the book that leads to my chamber, Kagome has my memories with her and that's how she new were to look she probably knows a hole bunch of my spells now too" Airah still had Shippo in her arms and had somehow managed to he him to sleep in her arms.

"Listen lets just cut to the chase whether you like it or not I am stuck with you lot. I need to get my body back so I don't dwell on Kagome and in return I can help you with Naraku" she said softly as to not awake the sleeping demon in her arms.

"keh how can you help what do you know about Naraku" Inuyasha crossed his arms arrogantly, anger was building once again at the thought of Naraku.

Airah only looked at him in disbelief and astonishment "you saw that vision he has my book of shadows that book has a map in it that I need therefore I am going after Naraku for it I know he has it I can tell just by looking at him"

she pointed a finger at Miroku, who had a look of sudden fear in him as his eyes grew wide at the finger pointing at him.

"and uhhh how is it y…you can tell that be m…me?" Miroku sweat dropped and looked nervous it was one thing to see Kagome get frustrated but another to have in so intensely looking at him.

Airah smirked and looked at his had wrapped in pray beads "that pleasant little black hole in your hand is made from a combination of spells that I made in MY book of shadows. It's one of the deadliest dark art curses written in there…in English anyway" she said sarcastically at first as if this news was simple.

Miroku's jaw dropped he felt a rush of hope at last there was person who new more about the dreaded curse in his hand then Naraku.

He looked at his hand and thought of something "if you made this spell then you must know of a way to stop it from my fate!" he said with a little to much hope in his voice.

Sango and Inuyasha shot a hopeful glance at the expressionless face of Kagome but began to think they were giving there hopes up to early as her face remained emotionless.

Airah looked Miroku in the eyes "that spell is a mix of the wound that will never heal the gift of wind and a the porthole of nothingness, on there own those spells are enough to kill a person but he has turned them all into one deadly genetic curse, which I have to give him credit for is really cleaver. Unless you kill Naraku you will be sucked in right?"

Miroku nodded slowly he was expecting the same news he already new 'there is no other way' he thought looking sad and almost angry at himself for believing.

"But" Airah went on.

"Out of the three spells he used one of them has a counter curse" she said with the faintest whisper of a smile on her face.

"The curse of the wound that never heals has a counter curse, a potion that dissolves the poison keeping the wound open, but in you case you will not bleed to death hmmmmm!"

Airah found a loop hole in her first attempt at countering the monks cursed hand, she placed her fingers in Kagome's chin and focused of the memories of her book. Her eyes shot wide open with a start after a moments thought.

"Got it, you will only be sucked in when the void grows too big and strong for your hand to handle…you need a cross between the potion that heel's the wound that never heels and a paralysing curse. That will stop you black hole from growing until you actually kill Naraku"

Airah smiled at the wide eyed expression over the monks face as he gazed at the air void in his hand.

"it's lucky for you the memory of those curses are in that orb so I don't need to book to make the counter curse, but I hope you all understand that Naraku has a serious advantage against you guys with it at hand, but he can only use the spells written in English a lot of them are written in my mothers old language" Airah said seriously.

Inuyasha thought through all the facts that he had been told he had made up his mind 'she could be trusted' he thought.

Airah felt her head spin and new that Kagome needed to return to her body fully. She clutched her aching head and in doing so sparked the concern for all her friends, Inuyasha steadied Kagome's body and brought her to rest on her knees.

Shippo had woken up and jumped from Kagome sensing distress "I have been to long you don't need to explain anything to Kagome I allowed her to hear everything, but please I need that book it's my last chance t…t…too…"

She never got a chance to finish what she was saying the process of Kagome's soul returning to it's rightful place had taken over.

Kagome's eyes fluttered open and shut again, she needed to support her weight with her hand on the ground, her body ached like she had been sprinting as fast as her muscles would take her for a thousand miles.

The dizziness in her head subdued but the tingle in her veins still ached but slowly calmed.

A pair of arms wrapped under her arms and knees and she was lifted into the air against a warm comforting body.

Inuyasha held a weak Kagome in his arms he motioned for Shippo to pick the orb up and he and the others left the temple to get some fresh air.

"Inuyasha will Kagome be alright?" Shippo tugged at the bottom of Inuyasha's pants and looked up at him tears brimming in his eyes for concern of Kagome.

"she'll be fine just give her a minute" he said in a husky voice, he sat with his back against a tree and Kagome wrapped in the sleaves of his Haori.

"Inuyasha why don't you let her rest on her sleeping bag" suggested Sango, she was also unknown to Inuyasha or Miroku for that matter testing a theory she had in her mind all night.

Inuyasha looked at her for a moment and growled from deep within his chest in disapproval.

He couldn't trust himself with many words or explain himself being so affectionate all of a sudden especially with Miroku around "no" he ground out.

His skin felt like it was alive all over his blood felt as though it was on fire and goose bumps plagued his skin just having Kagome in his arms which considering how he felt when she wasn't near him was pure heaven.

Kagome's dizzy eyes rolled around in there sockets as her consciousness began to return.

But a voice spoke to her in her mind before her vision returned she new this voice it was Airah.

"Kagome one last thing. I happened to notice the season the year is in and I thought you should know that for demons it is know mating season and you smell pretty good to them, so try not to be too surprised when you wake up…oh and uhh sorry for taking so long eheh!" Airah sounded a little guilty at the end.

Kagome laughed softly "it's ok better you then me explaining it…hey wait what do you mean don't be surprised when I wake up? Airah? AIRAH…HEEEEY COME BACK HERE!" she heard playful laughing echo through her mind.

"you'll see" Airah said as Kagome fluttered her eyes open and was greeted by a pair of curious looking golden eyes staring down at her.

Kagome's heart pounded faster then ever when she realised that she was in Inuyasha's lap and Sango and Miroku were watching.

"Inuyasha?" she gasped then Airah's words of demons and mating season rang through her mind.

"What" his ears perked up completely unbothered by the fact that he had her in his lap.

Kagome blushed and scrambled out of his lap, the instant she moved the goose bumps in Inuyasha's skin started to sting and burn, his heart ached at the loss of her warmth against him and his blood raced faster with the need to have her near.

But he restrained himself for his and Kagome's sake.

About half an hour later the group was ready to leave on pursuit of Naraku and the jewel shards.

And now for the book that he had in his grasp.

The group started to walk through the huge forest hinted by Airah through Kagome that there was a village that descended from her kingdom on the other side of the woods and that they may have the herbs that Airah needed for Miroku's wind tunnel.

They were nearing the border of the forest at last after hours of waking, when Inuyasha stood in his tracks, and because he was walking so close to Kagome she bumped into him.

"Inuyasha?" she questioned him but got no response, Inuyasha's ears perked up and he was sniffing the air.

He could smell the scent of a demon that had passed not to long ago but was still near bye. His instincts could only think of one reason a demon would dear venture into the haunted forest.

'Kagome!' his demon side whispered to him stirring the threatening growls from deep within.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome's voice said more sternly this time, he turned to face Kagome and the others and was met by questioning stares.

"What can you smell Inuyasha?" said the monk

"demon…"
