A/n: Hey, I'm back! And having fun! Hope you enjoy!
--FROM THE LAST CHAPTER--
Just as I released the arrow, there was a loud crack and someone landed right in front of the target. It took me a split second to realize who it was. The arrow was careening towards Inuyasha, strait for his heart.
Before I could think, I dropped the bow, my hand outstretched towards the arrow, chanting unknown words. I had no idea what I was doing, nor did I care. I had to stop that arrow from hitting Inuyasha.
To everyone's surprise, especially mine, the arrow slowed, stopped, and dropped right at Inuyasha's feet. I saw Inuyasha's shocked and grateful face just before I passed out.
I was still trying to get over the shock of what happened. I could still see her, her hand outstretched towards the arrow, chanting some ancient unknown language. I could still feel the chill of the air as her aura swirled around her. I could see the look of shock cross her face as the arrow slowed down and the look of relief when it stopped.
Now that was the furthest thing from my mind. I was pacing next to her side, waiting for her to wake up. The freakish thing was, as soon as she had been placed safely on a mat in Kadae's hut, she had created a protective barrier around herself... and me. I couldn't get out if I wanted to, and no one could get in. Kadae was sitting right at the barrier, chanting. The only luck she had had so far was to drive the barrier back two feet. After a half hour, Kadae sighed and asked,
"Inuyasha, child. Does Laquisha have any dragon blood in her?"
"How should I know?"
"I don't know, but this shield is the strongest I've ever seen. One that can only be created by a species of dragon-demon called the spirit dragons. They are the most powerful demon known to exist. But, they are also few in number and they are without heir."
All of a sudden, Laquisha sat up strait in alarm. She then stiffened, her ears pricked up, she was fully alert of her surroundings. I saw her ears move in different directions, scanning the area for Kagome and Sango. I sat up and listened hard to see what had startled her. I heard the faint sounds of a battle at a distance. She stood and cautiously went to the door. I followed close behind her. When she heard a scream, she bolted out the door, with me at her heels. She was surprisingly fast, being that she had just passed out a few hours ago. We got to the battlefield just in time to see Kagome fire an arrow at some crow-demon. The arrow hit its target, but it made an odd cracking sound. The next thing I knew, there was a small explosion and hundreds of tiny, little, shiny objects flew everywhere in different directions. Turned to look at Laquisha, who looked surprisingly pale and her mouth hung open. After getting over some of her shock she said,
"We... Are.... so.... screwed!"
Dum, dum, dum! I'm pretty sure everyone knows what those shiny objects are. If you don't, well, stay tuned until the next chapter! Anyway. Sorry for the cliffie and the short chapter. I wanted this one to end with a cliffie, so... thus the short chapter. Sorry!
