Kagome: The Rainbow Mermaid Princess

By: Goddess Kyoko

Last time:

As the two bickered, Sango just rolled her eyes thinking as she petted Kirara, 'Is the fighting between them ever going to end any time soon?

Chapter 7

Kagome woke up to find out that Inuyasha and the others were awake, catching fish for their breakfast. She got up from her sleeping bag to catch some fish for herself. When everybody saw that Kagome was awake they all greted her with smiles except for Inuyasha who was still sulking from the events of the day before.

She smiled when she saw that Inuyasha was sulking. Then she grinned when she saw that Inuyasha was so busy sulking, that he lost his balance, fell into the river face first, and got out with three fish moving in his mouth.

Then everybody but Inuyasha smirked when Kirara walked up to him, jumped up, stole one of his fishes and ran back to Sango was and mewed happily.

Everybody was trying not to laugh, but thanks to the thought of Inuyasha having another fit, they were able to barely succeed.

Kagome was able to catch three big fish, but gave Shippo one of her fishes. Just as Inuyasha was about steal Shippo's fish, Kagome concentrated on a barrier but instead of having it go all around him, she made it into some kind of invisible floating platform and smacked him in the head making him fall with his face in the ground.

Everybody but Kagome was surprised that Inuyasha fell to the ground like when Kagome said 'sit' but they hadn't even heard her say it.

"How did you do that?" Inuyasha demanded from her once he was able to have gotten himself up. Kagome gave him a mysterious grin and confused him by saying," Why do you think that I did it? I mean, think about it Inuyasha, do you really think that I did it? And if so, how?"

Leaving him to ponder at those words, she walked away to look for some firewood that they could use for their fish.

When she returned, she found out that Inuyasha was in a deep crater, and that Shippo had turned into Sagome, and was still getting payback.

She laughed, put the firewood down, walked over to Sagome and said knowingly," Hit you on the head and ate your fish?"

When Sagome nodded, she laughed and said,"Go ahead." Then she walked over to Sango to help her with the firewood, while Miroku was waiting as he watched Shippo get his revenge chuckling a bit.

By the time that Shippo was done, all the fish were cooked and ready to eat. They ate with a comfortable silence and then left to look for Naraku and the Sacred jewel shards.

Lucky for them, a huge demon with a shard ran over to tried to attack them to get the necklace that had the bottle of the shards she and her group had collected before.

When Inuyasha tried to use Tetsusaiga, the demon knocked it out of his hand before it could fully transform. Miroku tried to use his wind tunnel, but got knocked down. Sango tried to use her Hirakotsu but the demon just caught it and tossed it far away.

As everybody was trying to either gather their weapons or have the strength to get back up, the demon dashed toward Kagome and used it's demonic power, Inuyasha, not knowing of the newly awoken abilities that she had, quickly yanked the Tetsusaiga off from the ground, transformed it and then immediatly began to run back toward her shouting out, "Kagome!"

To his and everybody's disbelief, she seemed to smile in the face of danger and right when the demonic wave was about to touch her she suddenly threw out her barrier which dissipated the attack into nothing but air. Then while the demon was distracted from being in shock of one of his best attacks being deflected by none other than a weak defenseless appearing human, she made her shield dissapear for the sacred arrow to launch itself at it's target. The demon cried out into agony as it got purified and as soon as he was, his bellowing had stopped for good

Kagome took off her visible shield and ran over to the Sacred jewel shard, purified it and ran to where the others were staring at her in bewilderment, so to get rid of any suspicion, she said," Kaede taught me how to do that."

Once she saw that everybody nodded and then picked up their weapons, she suppressed a sigh of relief and put the shard into her pocket.

Then, when she sensed two familiar feeling sacred jewel shards, she sighed and said to the others," Guess who's coming at us in full speed. Here's a hint: he's madly in love with me and annoys Inuyasha all the time."

The second that Inuyasha realized who it was, he ran in front of Kagome to try to block Koga from getting to Kagome. Sadly, he had no such luck for Koga just launched himself onto the top of Inuyasha's head which knocked him down, and then stepping down from the close to unconscious half demon, he had reached for her two hands for him to keep close to him.

"Hey Kagome, has the mutt been taking good care of you? Or has he been ditching you for that dead girl of his?" Then Koga decided to annoy Inuyasha even more by saying," Now, what was the dead girl's name again? Is it the Clay Pot? Yes, I'm sure that's her name. After all, that's a perfect name for her, right Kagome?"

Everybody grinned and agreed with Koga, but that comment only made Inuyasha yell back at him, "Her name isn't Clay pot so stop calling her that would ya?"

Koga said with a grin," Clay pot. What you going to do now, mutt?" Inuyasha just tackled him and they started fighting. Everybody was used to it by now so they just waited patiently for it to be over. After they had exhanged some pretty hard punches Inuyasha got up and said to everybody else," Let's go, the stupid wolf is starting to bug me and if we don't go soon, I just might casterate him."

Then Koga said to Kagome," Alright, I have to go now. But don't worry Kagome I will be back another time soon.." Koga punched Inuyasha's face, apparently his new "friendly" way of saying goodbye, and then ran off. Well at least it was better than the last time which had Inuyasha storming after him who was carrying a shocked Kagome with him.

Inuyasha muttered under his breath for a while as they looked around for any more jewel shards. But they couldn't find any more and were exhausted so they gave up in the late afternoon setting up their camp site for the night.

Kagome dug into her bag, gave Shippo a lollipop and then asked," Inuyasha, want some ramen for dinner right now?" To her surprise he shook his head, but then it faded away when he said," I'm not going to eat right now, going for a walk."

Kagome just sighed and asked, having already seen the swarm of soul collectors that were soaring in the sky, controlled by their mistress, to get his attention,"You mean to go see Kikyo?" Inuyasha just hung his head, and without answering, started to walk away. Kagome just then simpily put a barrier that didn't allow him to move from his spot.

Inuyasha yelled," Kagome, why is your friend doing this?" Kagome just said back to him just as mad," Like I said before, I asked her to!" With her bow and arrows, she left Inuyasha to practice her shooting in the forest. She shot at the first target and the arrow was an inch from where she had meant to aim because of her tears that blurred her vision. 'Stupid Inuyasha! Can't you see that Kikyo isn't who she was all those years ago?'

The second that Kagome was about to shoot her arrow on the second target, something came from the air and landed on the ground, a couple of feet from Kagome.

Kagome watched as the person walked out of the shadows and gasped out as soon she saw who it was," Naraku?"
