Yoko's brother Shuichi

AN: Here's the next chapter.


Chapter 7

Recap: "Tell us more about these 'shards'," Youko seemed very much interested.


No One's Point of View

"Feh no way," Inuyasha scoffed. He crossed his arms and glared at a tree.

Kagome glared at Inuyasha's back and sighed before she turned back to the others. She twirled a stray hair around, "Sorry about Inuyasha's behavior but he doesn't trust many people so it has nothing against you really."

Shuichi nodded, "It's alright. Some of my friends are like that as well."

Kagome nodded back and smiled, "Anyway…You guys want to know about the jewel shards right?"

Yusuke nodded, "Yeah…My boss said something about you collecting something like that."

Kagome was about to reply when Inuyasha got bored of looking at the tree and turned sharply to face them. He stomped toward Yusuke and lifted him by his shirt collar, "How the hell did you get in the well anyway? Kagome and I are supposed to be the only ones who can get through! And how can we trust you if we don't even know why you're here? Who's your boss anyway?"

He dropped Yusuke and glanced at Kagome, "You think Naraku is in your world Kagome? That may be their boss and if he is then we can't trust them."

Yusuke got up and glared at Inuyasha, "What the hell are you talking about? Our boss ain't some guy named Naraku and anyway who is Naraku?"

Yoko sighed and exchanged glances with Hiei before saying, "We just jumped through the well and it landed us here. If it only worked for you two, then sorry but it works for others."

He grinned when Inuyasha glared at the ground and started kicking rocks. Kagome was sighing and trying not to use that word.

"We're here because of an order," Hiei scoffed and the others looked at him in surprise so he finished with an "hn."

"What order?" Inuyasha asked suspiciously, "Who's your boss?"

Just as they were about to reply, some shouts were heard.

"KAGOME! Where are you?" called a girl's voice.

Kagome smiled suddenly, "Sango, over here!"

"There you are," a man in a monk's robe came through the bushes; followed closely by a girl with a large boomerang. The monk had a small child on his shoulder with small pointy ears and a bushy tail. A two tailed cat was walking beside the girl the others assumed as Sango.

The monk smiled when he saw Kagome and then glanced at the others, "Why Kagome, who are those people? I didn't know we were expecting company."

"We weren't," she answered simply.

He frowned but shrugged after a moment. Sango, though, gave some suspicious glares at them before whispering in Kagome's ear, "Are they after the jewel shards then?"

Yusuke frowned, "Of course we aren't lady. Actually we're sent to help you gather the jewel shards and protect Kagome. My boss, Koenma, sent us to defeat some half-demon that wants to use jewel shards for evil."

"Who's Koenma?" Kagome asked.

There was a small cough and all eyes were trained on the monk. He smiled nervously and rubbed the back of his head, "Lady Kagome, I think a proper introduction is in order before we discuss anything else."

"Right," Kagome nodded, "The monk is Miroku, the slayer is Sango, the fox child is Shippo and the cat is Kirara."

Kuwabara grinned and looked around, "You guys have a kitty? Where is the cat?"

Sango laughed and pointed to Kirara. Kuwabara's eyes widened, "That's a big cat."

"Anyway…My name's Yusuke," Yusuke said, pointing to himself, "The red head is Shuichi, the fox eared dude is Yoko, the orange haired idiot is Kuwabara and the last member and the shortest member is Hiei."

"Oh so I'm the idiot Urameshi?" Kuwabara glared.

"You always have been so yeah. Why, you want to fight about it?" Yusuke challenged and curled his hand into a fist.

Kagome stepped in between them, "Wait guys! We still have to clear things up, okay?"

Yusuke glared at him before crossing his arms, "Whatever."

"So who is Koenma?" Inuyasha asked gruffly.

"He's the Spirit World's ruler. You see, in our world; that also includes yours Kagome; in our world, there are four worlds. They are the Human World, Demon World, Nether World and Spirit World. The Nether World disappeared though, after a war with Spirit World. The Human World is where the humans are, the Demon World is where the demons roam and the Spirit World is where the spirits of the dead go," explained Shuichi.

"Uh-huh," Kagome said after a minute of silence, "So you work for the ruler of the dead? He assigned you this mission?"

Yusuke nodded, "Yeah."

Kagome blinked before turning sharply to face north. Inuyasha got up quickly and so did Yusuke, Shuichi, Hiei and Yoko.

"Demon," they said in unison.

Kagome nodded, "With a jewel shard."
