Chapter 6:Kagome Seeks Help
Outside of the strip joint, Kagome explains to Moroku's Reincarnation about everything.
"O.k so you guys really do exist and those dreams are actually visions of my past life?" asked the very confused reincarnation.
"Yes, do you remember how to use your staff and incantations? What is your new name?" asked Inuyasha.
"Yes but what happened to my wind tunnel? My new name is Matt."
"After we defeated Naraku, your reincarnation decided to keep the wind tunnel in case we needed it later on in life. But, it is no longer considered a curse so your generation never received the wind tunnel. Instead, all you got was a circular scar where the wind tunnel would have been if you were still cursed." Answered Kagome.
"That explains a lot I guess. Why exactly did you come for me anyway?" asked Matt.
"Yah Kagome. Why did you and Inuyasha come looking for us?"
"Because there is a new demon and he has come to the Modern Era. He can transform into any person. That is how he got here. He transformed into me and went through the well. Is plan is to rule this Era and the Fudal Era. If he succeeds, the entire world would change forever."
"So we need to find everyone from the Fudal Era in this Era, give them their weapons and have them help us defeat Hisherabi so we can get back to our lives." Added Inuyasha.
"Which we should stop for now. It is getting really late and I am getting tired from all of the work we have done today." Said Kagome with a slight yawn.
"What are we going to do? Go to your house? What if Hisherabi is still there?" asked Sarah.
"There is only one way to find out." Answered Inuyasha.
So the gang started walking to Kagome's house. While they were walking, everyone was silent because Kagome was thinking. What do they do if Hisherabi is actually still there? If he were not, what would Kagome say to her mother? Would she tell her the truth or make some stupid story that she knew her mother would not believe? There was one person in her entire life that she could go to to tell them all of her problems and get , answers to questions. That one person was her mother. So, Kagome decided that, if Hisherabi were not at her house, she would go in and tell her mother everything. She was just hoping that nothing had happened to them. If Hisherabi was there, all they could really do is find some place else to rest for the night.
"Well, here we are. By the looks of it, Hisherabi has not closed up the well yet and my family is still alive and well. Now to go inside and have a very long, thoughtful talk with mom. She might be able to help us with our problem. She has helped me out many times before. What makes now any different?" asked Kagome.
"I have not seen Kagome or that stupid half demon Inuyasha all day. Maybe they just gave up and let me win. I wish it could be that easy. They are still probably trying to figure out where I am and what I am going to do when I become ruler. It is getting late. I should go back to the house and close up the well."
So Hisherabi started walking back to the Higurashi house. Once he got to the shrine, he had to duck from being noticed by Kagome and the others.
"What are they doing here? They are going to ruin everything. Damn them! Damn them all to the deepest pit of hell."
"Mom, can I talk to you?" asked Kagome.
"Of course you can darling. You always come to me for anything."
"Have I been acting a bit, strange ever since I came back from the Fudal Era earlier this morning?"
"Well, yes but I thought it was because of Inuyasha and the gang."
"Well this is the real reason why I was acting the way I was."
About three hours later Kagome stopped talking and her mother just looked at her.
"I knew something was up with you when you got back." Said Sota after revealing himself from behind the sliding door.
"Where did the other me go?" asked Kagome to her mother while ignoring the fact the Sota has, once again, eased dropped on another one of Kagome's conversations with her mother.
"He said he was going out to the movies with a bunch of friends." Answered Kagome's mother.
"I will go upstairs and call everyone. I will ask them if they have gone out with me sometime tonight. While I am doing that, you guys can make yourselves comfortable and mom should be glad to make the snacks you ate in the Fudal Era."
With that, Kagome ran upstairs to her bedroom while her mother made the gang their favorite Japanese snacks and meals.
"Great, now what I am going to do? Kagome and her mangy mutt are at the house. It looks to me like they are assisted with some of the mambers of the gang. But wait! Didn't Naraku kill Shippo in battle? Then those must be the reincarnations of Shippo and Moroku. Hoe clever. They thought up a plan to defeat me. Too bad I can stop this. I can get to the others before they do and either force them to join me or, kill them. Guess I should get started early in the morning. I do believe I deserve a break from trying to become the ruler of two different Eras at once. Where am I going to sleep tonight? I guess I could sleep at a hotel or something. All I have to do is transform into somebody who has a room but is not in it. That should not be that hard now should it?" With that, Hisherabi left Kagome's house and went searching for a room. Since he could not find someone that was not in their room that rented one, he decided to kill one of the housekeep who had a copy of the keys to all the rooms, found a vacant room, and went straight to sleep.
After about an hour and a half, Kagome came down from her room with the telephone in one hand and her phone book in the other.
"Well, none of them have seen Hisherabi so that is somewhat good news. But, I still do not know where he is and what he looks like and what he is doing. O, everyone is asleep already?"
"Yes dear and you should get some sleep also. I will wake you all up in the morning so you can get to work on finding the rest of the gang, find Hisherabi and save our Era and the Fudal Era." With that, sshe kissed her daughter good night.
So Kagome went back up to her room and went to sleep. But, with all of the stress and worry she is going through, she really did not sleep very well at all.
'I wonder how this is going to turn out. We have to find the rest of the reincarnations, find a shape shifter in Japan, destroy him and then go back to living life the way it was. We have a long day ahead of us and I cannot get a single wink of sleep. Inuyasha and the others are lucky that sleep came to them so quickly. They probably are just happy to be in my house and get to eat wonderfully home cooked meals. Guess I should try and get some sleep. We have reincarnations and a shape-shifting demon to find in the morning.'
