Azn: wow… no reviews since chapter 4…
Inu: I laugh.
Azn: Like I care. I know my stories suck.
Inu: Agreed.
Azn: You could at least be a bit considerate.
Aznyoshidragongrl3: Ehh… I'm not even going to ask about the reviews I'm just going to get this story over with. I haven't updated in a long time and also noticed how little my story is noticed. I'll finish this story for those who actually read it.
And I would like to know who reads it. So review please?
Disclaimer: Ryu, Yuuki, Tatsuya, Miyuki, Izumi, Satsuki, Akito, and Masami are mine!

New scene
There was a gentle breeze in the air as it rustled the wind chimes outside of the room Inuyasha and Kagome slept in. A glimmer and white streak flew through the air passing the room and entering the forest nearby. A light laughter could be heard from the entrance of the forest.
Morning
The birds sang their song awaking Kagome in the process. Greeting her awakened slumber were two amber orbs that stared back into her brown orbs. She felt a light tingle in her cheeks as Kagome felt Inuyasha's breathe on her face.
"Morning, sleeping beauty." Inuyasha smiled as his arms tightened around her waist.
Kagome rubbed her eyes as they adjusted to the sunlight. She yawned and replied, "Morning."
"Ready to go?"
"No. I thought you said last night you wanted to talk to Ryu?"
"I do. That's where we're going."
Kagome raised an eyebrow, "In a castle you don't even know your way around?" Inuyasha just pointed to his noise and Kagome laughed and kissed him on the cheek, "Oh right dog boy, you'll just sniff him out."
Slumber
Inuyasha hoisted Kagome up onto his back ignoring her complaints and found Ryu's room. Kagome got off his back and slid open the door a crack to see Satsuki's face buried into Ryu's chest.
"Oh dear… kids these days." Kagome joked.
"Feh… technically they aren't kids in my time and they are demons…"
"I know it was a joke." Kagome looked away from the door to face Inuyasha
"Well it wasn't funny wench!"
"Jerk!"
"Stupid girl!"
"SIT!"
Inuyasha crashed into the floor startling the two demons in the room. The door of the room quickly slid open revealing two demons, a sleepy demon wielding his staff and a sleepy demon baring her poison claws.
All four of them bursted out laughing, Inuyasha and Kagome at their ruffled appearances and Satsuki and Ryu at Inuyasha impaled into the floor.
The talk
It was back in the village and Miroku and Sango were informed of the situation.
"So where have you last seen the priestess that looked like Kagome?" Miroku asked.
"In the forest nearby." Ryu responded.
"Tell us how you got it or I'll kill you." Inuyasha replied rudely.
Ryu glared at Inuyasha, "You can hold a grudge can't you? Well in any case, you see it wasn't too long ago when I met her…"
Flashback
Ryu raced impatiently towards the village to search for Satsuki. As he passed by the trees a glimmer caught his eyes making him stop and saw a priestess with soul collectors all around her.
'What a strange priestess…' Ryu thought
"Come out of the trees demon." Kikyo pointed her arrow at Ryu. Ryu obediently withdrew from the covers of the trees, staff in hand. "I have been watching you for some time and wanted to aid you in your quest to find the girl you are looking for."
"Why would a priestess want to help a demon?"
"Because I hold the Shikon Jewel."
"Impossible, it was shattered into thousands of pieces across the land."
Kikyo revealed the sphere in her palm and indeed it was the Shikon Jewel… or at least a replica. "Fake or real this will provide you with extra power. I have more if you need."
"Why should I trust you?"
"Use it and I won't kill you. Do what I ask for the time being and I won't kill you. I do not ask for your trust in any way."
Ryu rolled his eyes, "Convincing offers aren't they." He grabbed the fake jewel and went on his way.
End Flashback
The truth made Inuyasha uncomfortable. He squirmed where he sat as he wondered how Kikyo made a replica of the jewel. He wanted the whole truth… what was Kikyo up to? He loved Kikyo so there were still lingering feelings, but the key word rang trough his mind… loved. He loved Kikyo, but now loves Kagome. He still had a hint of doubt maybe he had been attracted to Kagome in the beginning because she looked like Kikyo. But he had gotten to know they were nothing alike. So why did he feel the need to go to Kikyo suddenly? Why did he want to suddenly just leave Kagome for a bit and find Kikyo? He needed to clear his mind… badly and fast.
"I'm going out for fresh air. Don't follow me I'll be back shortly." Inuyasha left before anyone could respond.
Azn: It's a short chapter with what I call a cliffhanger! Deal with it. No reviews equal to no motivation to write the fanfiction… I felt so sad that no one had reviewed…
And like I said before…
I would like to know who reads it. So review please?
I HAVE made changes to my writing style. I will no longer use Japanese words or any of the sort… just plain English. Except maybe the chapter titles…
Reviewing motivates me so the more reviews the faster I'll want to write the story and post it up.
