I
don't own Inuyasha
Sorry guys that I updated so long ago but I had more trouble with school lately, I only had ten tests last week. And the end of the school year is close so I also have other stuff to do. Yeah! Only two more weeks to go... then there are only couple of exams left. Not so Yeah. I think this was also an answer for White Wolf's question. Also sorry about the spelling, next time I won't listen to music while spellchecking.
Sarah: I don't really know maybe I'll let Hojo alive... for now.
Inufreak831: Well Naruse has a hole army of young demons in the modern era, what do you think he'll do with them when they grow up.
Anime-luvver:
Sorry but I prefer democracy most people said that Kiara is a girl
and I also remember so, and after my latest idea I don't really
want to change that.
Chapter:14
The new cat
It was around five o'clock in the morning, two human looking hanyou's where sleeping on a bed holding each other tight, the female started to move and tried to snuggle even closer to the male what was already impossible.
There was a knock on the door, but the hanyous didn't move, neither did the three other girls who where giving them company. There was a second knock but the answer was the same. The door opened and Hojo entered the room he found it strange that Inuyasha was always hiding a bag from him and since he couldn't find anything about him he thought it would be handy to dig through it.
As he was doing so Kagome started to stir, her human ears immediately picked up the noise, she turned around to see Hojo digging through Inuyasha's gripsack, this particular bag contained a large number of clothes, and the Tetsusaiga. Soon the boy found the sword, he was about to take it out of the bag when Kagome decided that it's enough.
"What are you doing with Inuyasha's sword?" she asked, Hojo jumped a little in surprise and turned around.
"H...hi Kagome..."
"Leave it alone and get out... be happy that I woke up, not Inuyasha!"
"I'm just worried about you and thought it would be good to find..."Kagome had enough; she wasn't even bothering to hide her anger.
Hojo started to pull the Tetsusaiga out of the bag, Kagome almost jumped out of bed, but Inuyasha's hand pulled her back, she decided that waking the hanyou would be Hojo's death certificate. "Hojo get out before I throw you!" she half yelled.
"Kagome calm down I'm just worried about you." ( How the hell can someone get so dense?)
/This is ridiculous he should be worried about himself/ "I had enough, put Inuyasha's sword back and get out!"
"But..."
"HOJO!" Kagome yelled, then she felt Inuyasha move behind her; luckily he only got his other arm around her waist, and continued sleeping. Kagome sighed, before continuing. "Can't you understand? I like it this way, and if Inuyasha finds you here when he wakes up he'll tear you apart, please leave me and Inuyasha alone, put the Tetsusaiga back and leave." Her voice was almost pleading.
"But..." Kagome had enough she grabbed her alarm clock and threw it at Hojo, several pieces of clothing, leftover food, and other (MUCH harder) stuff followed, the hanyou wasn't even looking at what she's throwing. The boy quickly retreated from the room, seconds after he shut the door behind him Kagome's dagger impacted into the wood of the door in the height of Hojo's head.
In the same second the sun rose above the horizon Inuyasha's senses returned to normal, he immediately woke up, and grabbed Kagome. "Where's Hobo I can smell him!" he yelled.
Later that day
After breakfast, Kagome walked to the back of the hostel where some people were lined up, she heard, that there'll be a chance to learn archery, and thought that some practice could get useful.
Kagome looked at the bows that we're laid out on a table, and her smile immediately disappeared. /They mock these things as bows?/ she took one of the things into his hands and inspected it more carefully. /Great this is more like litter, the wood, isn't flexible enough, and the line.../ she twanged the string and that gave out a low buzzing tone /...is definitely not tight enough./
Kagome looked around and saw that nobody was paying attention to her. So she pulled out her dagger and turned it into its bow form. She picked up some arrows, and moved in front of the targets that where already set up.
As she was preparing for her first shot when Hojo came around the corner, he saw Kagome winding up her bow, she was focusing on the arrow, so none of her powers flow into it which was quite hard since placing tem into her shots became one of her reflexes.
Hojo touched Kagome's shoulder. "Wait for the instructor you could get hurt!" the voice of the boy surprised Kagome so much that she raised the bow, which now aimed for the sky, in the same moment she also let it go, and the arrow went bye-bye, this wouldn't been that bad if it didn't contain much of her powers.
"I learned to use the bow three years ago!" she answered while trying to hide her annoyance, and hoping he didn't see the glowing miko arrow.
"But you should wait for the teacher, and you definitely shouldn't use a broken bow!" with that the boy pointed to the blade on the top of the weapon.
Kagome was now really annoyed. "Calm down Hojo. That blade has been put there on purpose. Now could you move aside and let me practice." Kagome loaded her bow again while trying to prevent the weapon from materializing an arrow, in the distance she heard a faint explosion and guessed that her projectile has landed. /Hope there was nobody in the arrow's path./ she looked at Hojo who was still trying to "talk some sense into her".
Kagome sighed and turned back to her target. /Poor boy maybe I should tell him, he might understand and back off, if he continues like this Inuyasha will surely kill him./ she sighed again and let go of he string sending the arrow on it's way to the bulls-eye.
In Sengoku Jiadi
Horikawa woke up, or better to say he was thrown out of bed by Shippo; the kitsune woke up early in the morning and was bored. Now he carried a large number of bumps on his head, and was tied to one of the lower branches of a nearby tree by his tail. A few steps away a monk, a huntress, and an angry looking hunter with a large log-print on his face were having breakfast.
"Ahhh... come on I'm sorry, please let me down! I'm hungry!" the kitsune begged.
"I'm your dreams!" the hunter responded.
Shippo turned to the huntress and gave her those pleading eyes. "Sango?"
"He's right!" Sango responded. "This last joke was rude!" After this Shippo turned to Miroku.
"Try to be a little more mature you're almost seven years old!" SLAP
"And you better leave my breasts alone!" yelled Sango.
"Come on at least he stopped groping other women!" remarked Horikawa.
Just then Kiara arrived back from wherever she spent the night, the two-tailed cat walked passed the squealing Shippo and sat down in Sango's lap. "Where have you been all night?" asked the hunter, but the cat didn't respond.
"Let me down and I'll sniff at her maybe I can find out something." recommended Shippo.
"Tough luck fox-demon you'll stay right where you are!" answered Horikawa.
After a few minutes the group was on the road again, Shippo still hung on the branch, which was now broken from the tree, but was thrown over Horikawa's shoulder so the kitsune was still suspended in midair.
Most of the day went normal, Miroku received one or two slaps or bumps every hour or so, and Shippo was begging for mercy.
It was almost evening when they found something out of order. A battered Kouga was lying on the side of the road, with some of his men around him. "Are you ok boss?" one of them asked.
"There's no time for this, get out of here those youkais are still on our tail, if you stay you won't have a chance to survive!" the wolf price answered. He turned his head aside and saw the group, he gasped. "Where's that mutt and Kagome?" he asked from them his voice was almost like every other time.
Miroku's perverted mind immediately started to work with full power. "They're probably enjoying their first days as mates!" after giving out the usual "rewarding" bumps Sango turned to the protesting wolf to tend his wounds.
"Get out of here if that army finds you here you're good as dead!" the wolf yelled.
"What army?" asked Horikawa while letting Shippo down from the branch. The kitsune immediately checked his tail, he found that it became at least few inches longer.
"You didn't hear?" Kouga asked.
"We only heard about a single youkai." Answered Miroku.
Kouga chuckled "Only one? Your informer must be real bad! There's a hole army of sword spiders and giant eagles that is terrorizing the land!"
Sango's look became grim "Naruse's army!"
Miroku looked at Kouga and saw the cuts on his legs. "They were after your jewel shards."
"They already got them, but who is this Naruse?" asked the wolf price.
"Naraku has a son, he's also after the jewel!" answered Miroku.
The roar of a demon sounded from the sky, and brought an end to the conversation seconds after that a huge eagle attacked them from above, everyone ducked onto the ground to avoid the painful contact. After the creature took off back into the sky Sango turned into action, throwing her Hiraikotsu after it, but that easily moved out of the boomerang's way.
Soon a second one came, Miroku threw one of his wards at it, the demon suffered, but survived the attack. Then came the third followed by the fourth, soon there where about ten of these birds attacking them. It wasn't that bad until the spiders arrived. "Well it's been nice knowing you guys!" stated Horikawa.
"Maybe we're done for, but we'll take some of them with us!" answered Sango. The small group charged at the mass of demons, but before they reached them one of the eagles crashed into the earth right in front of them.
When the group looked at the monster more carefully they saw several swords pointing out of its side, the mass of youkai's turned it's attention towards something in the bushes. An eagle decided to destroy the shrub, but as it moved closer for the kill, a thin lightwave left the place, and the bird fell to the ground with a deep wound on one of it's wings. After this the complete army attacked the one hiding in there.
After the demons destroyed the bushes they continued to pursue something the group couldn't see. Sango felt something missing, she looked around and immediately realized what it was. "Where's Kiara?"
Miroku also looked around to come to the same conclusion. "She was right here a few moments ago."
Sango turned to the destroyed path created by the youkai army. "She followed the youkais... but why?"
Kouga made it to stand up, and walked next to them. "It has no sense to stay here! You better get moving before they return."
"You're right! We're going after them!" answered Sango, and started to walk after the army. While Kouga and his wolves headed for home.
It was probably close to midnight, but the exterminator kept going, she and her friends were still following the destroyed path and found nothing, they where about to give up when they saw two cats walking towards them. One of the two was Kiara, and the other looked like every other domestic cat you can find in Japan.
Miroku grinned, "So this is where she's been disappearing, or to put it better to who."
Shippo immediately ran to the tomcat, and started to pet him, after a few seconds the feline started to give out warning signals, the kitsune quickly laid off. The small cat transformed, to the groups surprise after the transformation he looked like a normal human except the cat eyes, he wore a completely white, haori, and he had a katana on his side.
Sango's jaw dropped to the ground. "Aren't you the lord of the southern lands?"
