I am soooooo sorry this has taken so long crys

But I'm not going to was time in self hatred for tis time to get on with the chapter!

So, in this chapter we FINALLY get the real truth about Hikaru's Name, Past and Family

(It turns out Domeki was bending the truth a bit...)

GOD THIS IS GETTING CONFUSING!

And for all of you that have been crying out for a Sesshoumaru appearance (well okay, just Lady Hana but, Oh well!)

He's coming soon, not this chapter but soon. Kay?

I'm sick of saying that I'm fine with flames, so you guys should know by now

(Love you Guys thank you sooo much for your reviews!!)

Disclaimer; I don't own Inuyasha

I only a recently revived Hikaru and Domeki who is heading off in the complete wrong direction in his pursuit of Hikaru.

Last Time;

"Get off baka!" Inuyasha tried to swat at Hikaru

She leapt off Inuyasha to the relative safety of Sango's shoulder,

"Baka Janai! Anata no baka!" (translation; I'm not an idiot! You're the Idiot!)

Kagome lifted Hikaru off Sango's shoulder,

"Hikaru, we need to talk..."

Chapter 11:

The Truth,

well… part of it anyway

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

The Group had stopped for the night at a near by cave that, they soon learned was one of Hikaru's many hideouts.

As they sat by the fire they looked around,

The cave walls were lined with weapons,

Swords and pikes of every description, but mostly daggers, throwing knives, explosives

and other concealable weapons as well as a few 7foot glaives that were her favorites.

"Well she likes to keep well armed," said Miroku

"Your not kidding!" said Sango, the cave some-what reminded her of the armory in her village

Hikaru, looked somewhat guilty when Sango voiced the similarity, sat down,

"Sorry that we had to come out here. But in a few days when Domeki clues on to the fact that the Hikaru

he's chasing is a fake, that ruined castle is the first place is the first place he'll look, plus that place gives off bad waves."

"Now can we talk?" asked Kagome,

"Sure! What do you want to know?"

"Why you lied to us!" said Inuyasha

"What are you talking about?!" Hikaru raised her eyebrow at him and fiddled with the end of a red/black curl

"I think I'll leave it this colour, what do you think?"

"Hikaru, Domeki told us" said Miroku flatly

Hikaru put her head in her hands "Baka ne! Domeki-kun!" (That Idiot! Domeki!)

She sighed, "Ok, tell me what he told you and I'll tell you the truth, I swear!"

"Why should we take your word for it? You're just a lying, thieving Kitsune!"

Hikaru glared at him and stood up, despite her small size she seemed to tower over the Hanyou

"Weather you realize it or not, Inu-baka, my breed of 'lying thieving Kitsune's' has a strict honor code and I would never go back on my word!

Sure it may be hard to make us give our word on a matter but when we do we will not break it!"

As she spoke, her green & blue aura, laced with black, flared!

"Ok, we believe you Hikaru, calm down!" said Sango

Hikaru's infuriated aura receded and she sat back down

"So, what did Domeki say?"

"He told us your real name" said Sango

"Which would be...?"

"Hikaru Sakurazaki" said Shippo

To everyone's surprise Hikaru laughed

"Oh man, that's priceless! Oh remind me to KILL Domeki next time I see him the soppy bastard!"

"I don't get it?" said Shippo

"Neither do we" said Kagome, unamused and the others nodded

"Sakurazaki is my family's last name, not mine! Oh I'm going to murder the bastard!"

Miroku whispered into Sango's ear, "I think this explains more than it doesn't" she nodded

Hikaru turned to face them, "and what's that supposed to mean?!"

Miroku and Sango looked surprised

Hikaru tapped her Fox ears with a dagger she'd been playing with, "Kitsune hearing remember!"

"Uh, right" said Miroku

"So, what is your real name?" asked Kagome

Hikaru stood up and with mock ceremony that was obviously aimed at Domeki,

"Lady Hikaru Zetsubou Azamukimadowasu runaway and outcast of the Kitsune Aristocracy in the Western Lands

As well as the bearer of the 'Kuroraka no Tama' and professional kaitou!"

When Hikaru had finished her rant, Inuyasha spoke up

"Feh, nice name."

"Yeah, my Mother wanted another boy, hence the Hikaru bit, I was given my middle name after I inherited the 'Kuroraka no Tama'"

(A/N; Hikaru can be a boys or a girls name)

"It's a very unusual last name though" said Sango "I haven't come across any Kitsunes with it before"

"I would be surprised if you did, I have the Kuroraka and 12 dead Kitsune's to thank for that as well, but I think it suits me"

"Do you miss your home?" asked Kagome thinking of her own family; she should go back soon

"All the time, I miss my brothers more than anything really, but I won't go back"

"Why not? I'm sure your brothers would like to see you again." Said Shippo

Hikaru picked him up and cuddled him,

"I can't, my Mother sent Domeki out to track me, to bring me home so that I could be hidden away again..."

Hikaru's face hardened, sadness, anger and what looked like fear in her eyes,

"I don't want to be caged again..."

The others nodded and Hikaru hugged Shippo closer

"So why do you have such a bad relationship with your mother?" asked Miroku

Hikaru didn't answer

"Hikaru!" said Inuyasha "You said you would give us answers!!"

"NO!" said Hikaru, "I said I would tell you the truth, not once did I say I would answer ALL your questions!"

Inuyasha growled in frustration,

Hikaru laughed, "I'm a Kaitou and a Kitsune remember! I can talk my way out of most situations and slight-of-hand my way

Out of most unpleasantrys concerning inconvenient questions and possibly pitchforks wielded by angry peasants."

Sango sighed, "I KNEW there had to be a catch! You can never get a straight answer out of a Kitsune!"

"HEY!" cried Shippo from Hikaru's lap, "What about me! I've never lied to you!"

Inuyasha smirked, "Yeah but you don't really count since you're so small"

Hikaru bashed Inuyasha over the head with a convenient staff,

"Leave Shippo alone! Teasing a Kitsune about their height is bad for you health!"

"Feh! Yeah right!"

BISH

"OW!"

"See?!"

"Enough you two!" said Kagome

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

The next morning the group packed up and started to head towards Kaede's village,

Hikaru packed about a third of her armory but still only carried a small pack,

"Where the hell do you hide them all!!" asked/shouted Inuyasha,

Kagome figured he was more irritable than normal because the new moon was approaching and Hikaru was still hanging around.

Hikaru twisted her arm and a large dagger slid out of her sleeve, she threw in the air and caught it,

Twisted her arm back the other way and the blade was gone

She grinned, answering his question; "anywhere and everywhere!"

Inuyasha gave an unimpressed 'Feh!', besides Sango had wrist knifes too!

Hikaru scratched at her ear in a very canine fashion,

5 throwing daggers and 3 small thin bladed knives fell from the few curls that had been disturbed,

(A/N; told you there was heaps of cool stuff you can keep in there!)

Kagome laughed, "You looked so much like Inuyasha then Hikaru!"

Hikaru raised an eyebrow, not sure if she should be offended or not

"Well, I guess foxes are canines as well…" she said thoughtfully, replaced her weapons and turned back to Inuyasha

"You can hide a weapon anywhere if you know what you're doing,"

"Feh!"

Hikaru ignored him and pulled out an ornamental fan from the folds of her Black and White kimono,

And showed it to Inuyasha,

"Unless your Kagura, that things harmless!" he scoffed

"Uh, Inuyasha I wouldn't be so sure-" warned Sango

Hikaru snapped open the fan and struck out at a tree…

…nothing, the tree was still standing with no visible damage

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow, "Oh yeah! Real dangerous!"

Hikaru poked the tree trunk, and the tree fell with a crash, a neat cut ran straight through it

"Cool huh? There very popular, all the court ladies have them!" she teased

Inuyasha just 'Feh!'ed and kept walking

Sango turned to Miroku, "She's not kidding! They're very popular with female assassins in most courts"

"I can see why," said Miroku eyeing the fan with unease

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

They arrived at Kaede's village late that evening,

Despite her fatigue, Hikaru was bright eyed and uh… bushy tailed, (A/N; ok, bad joke! dodges flying objects)

She was eager to take in as much of this new surrounding as possible and ran off,

The others just ignored her and walked off to Kaede's hut to sit down for a bit,

Shippo had already gone to sleep while Kagome was holding him

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

Kaede was glad to see them and started to cook dinner while they told her about Naraku's latest movements

Three hours passed and Kagome was starting to think about going to look for Hikaru,

Two small girls, about 5 years old, came into the hut looking very proud of themselves

Kaede greeted them and they showed her their 'treasure'

It was a large round, black crystal that looked a hell of a lot like Hikaru's lifeforce (A/N; Ooh! Shiney!o)

"Oh shit!" said Inuyasha as they all rushed outside

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

It took them five minutes to find her,

She was in her fox form, sprawled at the feet of three small children, two of which were brandishing sticks

"Wow! It's dead!"

"Eww!"

"Cool!" (A/N; or the feudal version of 'cool' anyway…)

"Dare you to touch it!"

"GROSS! Don't do it!"

One of the kids picked Hikaru up by the tail (Shippo winced) and the other two started jabbing her with the sticks.

"Hey!" shouted Inuyasha, "you kids get away from there!"

The kids scattered,

Kagome picked up Hikaru and Shippo passed her the Kuroraka

There was the flash of black light and Hikaru was sitting on the grass with a dazed expression on her face

"Are you OK?" asked Sango

"Yeah, I feel like I've been poked with something though" she said eyeing the slight bruises she received from about half an hour of jabbing

Inuyasha and Miroku, who were holding the sticks, looked at each other then swiftly hid them behind their backs

Hikaru threw them a death glare and they tried, and failed, to look casual

THWACK!

Inuyasha and Miroku were left with matching black eyes

"HIKARU!!" cried Kagome! "They didn't do it!"

"Oh! Really! That's ok then!" she said cheerfully

THWACK THWACK!!

"OW! What did I do?!" swore Inuyasha

"Nothing! Its just fun!"

"HIKARU!" said Kagome and the Kitsune grinned and walked off towards the village

on her way she whispered to Sango

"feckin' hentai, baka necro…"

Sango tried desperately to hold back a laugh…

-To be continued-

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

Hikaru's got an teeny tiny problem with the jewel,Its kind of inconvenient that whenever she shifts forms, trips over something or stands up too fast She suddenly becomes a lifeless corpse, fun…

So we gotta fix it until her enemies (and she has quite a lot being who she is) take advantage of her vulnerability

One thing though…

How long is it going to take Domeki to figure out that the Hikaru he's chasing is a fake? He's such a dumbass!

R.E.V.I.E.W

RRRR EEEE V V II EEEE W W

R R EEEEE V V II EEEEE W W W

RRRR E V V II E WW WW

R R EEEE V II EEEE W W …OR DIE…

So I will post the next chapter (Brain Ninja's) as soon as possible but bear with me people!
