Summary: The final battle has ended and Kagome has to go back to her own time. After a while she gets on her feet but trouble soon meets the Higurashi family. And now she's stuck as the vice-president of Seika High. Keep in mind that Misaki is not poor and lives an ordinary life, except for the problems she has with her father, which is the cause of her hatred to men.

Chapter 9 X Story time
"Once upon a time, there lived a grandmother and a grandfather." A monotone voiced spoke, suddenly Sakura popped up in feudal clothing. "The weather's great today." She said with a singing tone. "Sakura Baa-san went to the river to do the laundry." The voice continued.
"Yukimura Jii-san went to the mountain to get firewood… which was what he was supposed to do, but instead he was helping with the laundry. Then all of a sudden, a well popped up from the ground."
"What is this?" Sakura Baa-san questioned as she looked at the old well, before she could peek inside it got enveloped in blue light. When the light faded a yellow bag flew out of it, followed by a loud grunt. The grandparents watched in awe as a young girl climbed out of the well. Her beautiful long black hair flowed behind her. However what distracted the old couple the most were the clothes that the young lady was clad in, a green sailor uniform along with an extremely short skirt.
"Few… I thought that centipede would kill me." The young girl exclaimed with a sigh. A moment of silence passed. "Obaa-san! A person came out of the well!" Yukimura shouted in panic. He watched as his wife calmly ate a peach she received from a passing warrior named Momotarou. "It's no time to be eating the peach!" He shouted
"Oh, hi!" The young girl walked over to the pair who greeted her in return. "I heard that there is an Oni who is kidnapping young girls; terrifying the villagers with the help of a Shikon jewel shard." The woman said with a soft smile.
"My, what a fine child we have here." Sakura spoke satisfied with the beauty the girl held. The female smiled in respond. "Now what is your name?" Sakura proceeded to ask. "Kagome." The girl answered. "Kagome Higurashi."
"Are you sure you want to go on such a dangerous quest?" Yukimura asked worriedly. Kagome nodded before looking away. "It can't be helped, it's my fault after all…" She strayed off. The silence got broken as Kagome smiled kindly as she stood straight again. "Well then, I suppose it's time for me to leave."
Kagome walked back over to the well where her bag was lying. "Oh, let me help you dear." Yukimura quickly walked to the yellow bag and made attempts to lift it up. He heard light chuckles coming from the raven-haired. "Forgive me, I forgot to tell you it's quite heavy." She said teasingly as she lifted the bag with ease.
"Well, Obaa-san, Jii-san, I'll be off!" She said with a bright smile. "You're quite beautiful, so take these with you. It's on me." Sakura said as she handed a small bag over to Kagome. "Eat a lot of kibi-dango." Kagome looked inside to see the delicious snack. "Arigatou, Obaa-san!"
"Take care!" Kagome waved as she left the riverside to go on her adventure. "As such, Kagome went to find the missing Shikon shard and stumbled across Dog, Pheasant and Monkey trapped in the tree."
"Why are we putting up with this?" Monkey asked in distress. "It's your fault, Dog!" Pheasant yelled. "You got tricked by that guy!" "So did Monkey!" Dog defended himself. "It's your fault for not noticing, Pheasant!" Monkey shouted back. "I told you it was suspicious!" Pheasant exclaimed.
"Kuso, all because that stupid Momotarou choose to sell us to that idiot guy!" Dog cursed. "What are you guys doing?" Kagome questioned with a tilt of her head. "Good Ningen there! Please help us!" Monkey begged getting restrained by the net.
"We're about to get killed after being sold and tricked by a villain!" Pheasant shouted desperately. Kagome sighed as she watched the Youkais with pity. "Oi! Don't look at us like that!" Dog yelled angry at the girl. Another sigh.
"Kagome saved the three who said they would do anything if she saved them… But they tried to snag the kibi-dango from him, so she scolded them."
"See?" A sudden voice from behind her began. "That's why I had them tied up." Kagome looked up and turned and saw a handsome young male with blonde hair and enchanting green eyes. Kagome's eyes widen as she looked at the man, something seemed… off.
"That's the bad guy!" The Monkey, Dog and Pheasant shouted as they were still stuck sitting on their knees, Kagome glared at them and they immediately straightened their backs.
"Who are you?" Kagome asked the unknown man. "I'm Takumi." The man bowed and then pointed to the trio. "I'm the Ring Master of the Moron Trio Circus. That's our members." Kagome sweat-dropped.
"I went and started a circus group, but they're useless, so I was just planning to eat them." Takumi said as he sharpened a knife and was boiling the soup.
Kagome pondered. "I see…" she placed a hand on her cheek as her face took over an expression of understanding yet pity to the poor Youkais falling victim. "If you're going to kill them for food sake, then I can't stop you."
"Please stop!"
"We've only been practicing, so we ran out of food." Takumi said as he focused his attention on the knife. "All the "training" was you whipping us!" Pheasant cried.
"Now…" Takumi's eyes glistered as he looked at the sharp knife. "Who should I start with?" His eyes glanced over the animals.
"I don't taste good!"
"He's really tasty!"
"No, he is!"
"What are you saying?"
The captured animals fought among themselves. Kagome watched their bickering and sighed. "Hold on." She said, the trio looked at her like she was an angel and their savior. "I want to ask them something."
She looked at the animals. "Do you have any idea to where the Oni is who has rumored to be in the possession of a Shikon Jewel?" Kagome asked, Takumi glanced at him before looking at the animals.
"Shikon? What's that?" Monkey questioned. "Ever heard of it?" He asked Dog. Dog shook his head. "What about you, Pheasant?" He asked. "Nope." Kagome looked confused at them. "Don't you guys know what the Shikon Jewel is?!" She watched as their head shook no. "The Jewel of four souls? The Shikon no Tama? Really?!" She exclaimed in disbelieve.
The trio kept looking at her dumbfounded, not understanding whatever she told them. "Then I have no use of you." She stated bluntly as she fixed the bag on her back before turning to leave. "Matte, matte, matte!" The trio shouted desperately.
"We might not know where the Oni lives, but we do know a village where Oni appeared recently!" Dog shouted, halting Kagome in het steps. "It's a village with many young people, but the day after the Oni came, all the girls were missing." Monkey explained.
"Could you point me to the direction?" She asked sweetly. The net began to sway. "We'll take you there if you save us." They said in a sing-along voice. Her eyes glanced at Takumi, his face covered by his bangs. "Takumi…"
"Sure." Takumi answered, he turned around to face Kagome. "But instead…" He smirked. "Give me a kibi-dango." Kagome sighed but complied. She watched him enjoy the snack with still doubtful eyes. She did not know what it was but something just seemed… off.
"And so Kagome departed to search the Oni who held the Shikon Shard with Dog, Monkey, Pheasant and a sketchy Ring Master of a circus group."
"I've been meaning to ask something." Takumi began, making Kagome look at him. "Just how short do you want your skirt to be?" He asked as he lifted the side up, making the black-laced panties barely visible. "It's average length!" Kagome shouted at him as she slapped his hand away. "Geez, you think Miroku would be enough as a pervert." She complained.
"Who's Miroku?" Takumi asked, Kagome got quiet; she did not say anything before she looked away. "I suppose he was an old friend." She answered and continued walking. Takumi took that as a hint to drop the subject and move on.
"Where's our share of kibi-dango?" Monkey asked as he looked at Takumi. "I ate them all." He stated bluntly. "But, this is kinda nice." Dog began. "It feels like a party led by a heroine out to defeat evil." Kagome glanced down at the animal and gave him a smile. "It kinda does, doesn't it?"
"However, you never know the extent of the darkness until you meet the evil itself." She said softly as she continued walking. "But I suppose this is different. "I would call us the party that slays Oni!" She said brightly with a dazzling smile.
After walking for a while they arrived at Seika Village, and abandoned village only inhabited by men. "So this is it?" Kagome looked around at the sad and dark place. "The village where the Oni kidnapped all the girls." They walked further in. "It's completely tattered. I almost don't sense any souls here." Kagome noted as she walked around.
Suddenly two men, fighting over a daikon broke through a wall and fell in front of their feet.
"I said that's mine!"
"You plan on snatching it away from me?!"
"That was the last one that grew from my farm!"
"Iie! It's from my farm!"
The two continued their bickering until Kagome interfered. "Uhm… excuse me…" She began softly not daring to come between the two. "HAH?!" They snapped their heads to her, but their breathing stopped when she landed in their sight. The battle for the daikon has halted, for now.
They watched Kagome like a hawk. "A girl?" One said, as he looked Kagome up and down, before halting at her chest area. "Excuse me…" Kagome turned away slightly from their eyes, putting her arms around her chest in order to hide them. Then, all of a sudden, the one that stared at her first was kicked away.
Kagome looked surprised at Takumi, who nonchalantly placed his feet back on the ground. "What was that for?" She asked him confused. "Nothing." He turned his head away. Kagome kept her eyes on him before sighing. She turned back to the remaining man who was now terrified to look at her.
"Were you two fighting because of the Oni?" Kagome asked as she kneeled in front of him. Then a foul odor entered her nostrils, she quickly placed her hand over her nose. "What's that smell?!" her face full of disgust. Dog quickly ran away and held his distance.
"He ran away because of the smell?" The boy questioned. "Well inus do have a sensitive nose, after all." Kagome said, her eyes also at the place where the dog disappeared.
"If you can't tolerate that level of smell, I suggest you leave this village now." A new person entered the scene, whom Kagome somehow recognized. "What do you mean?" Kagome asked.
"This is no longer a village any sane human can live in." The boy said as he fell down. Kagome wanted to walk over and help him, but the strong smell that came from him prevented her from doing so.
"Ah, so he's out of the race, too." The man who had fought for his daikon stood up. Kagome turned to look at him. "Would you care to explain?" The boy sighed. "You see, none of us bathe anymore." He said. "After the girls went missing, laundry and housekeeping all went downhill."
More and more men came to surround the odd group after hearing whispers of a girl being spotted in the village, a girl with a very short skirt. "All the guys are going through a survival-mode lifestyle." The boy continued. "But life in survival-mode is pretty fun."
Kagome looked at them, she was angry, annoyed, worried and confused at the same time. "What are you going to do with the village like this when the girls come back?" She asked them.
They looked at each other having no clue what she was talking about. "They won't." it came down on that, they decided. The girls will never come back. "I mean we're talking about Oni. There's no way we can win."
A dark aura began to surround Kagome, and the males could feel their survival instinct really kicking in. It was telling them, no matter what don't move, don't think and don't breathe, because death was now in front of them, in the form of a beautiful girl.
"Are you guys idiots?!" Kagome began shouting at them, instantly they were on the ground sitting on their knees. Not saying a word, they just took it. "We'll go save the girls, so tell me where Oni is! How dare you give up on those girls like they are nothing! It's you're stupid task to at least protect those who cannot be protected and now you guys are like animals without a true goal!"
She finally calmed down; she took a deep breath and calmed her anger. Her eyes went one more time over the men of the village. Then something happened that terrified them for live. "Well then we'll be off." Kagome said as she began to walk away. No, they would never forget that terrifying smile that told them they would die the next time she would be here and it had not changed.
They learned that Kagome is a very attractive, yet scary woman.
"So the Oni Island is beyond this ocean." Kagome looked over the cliff at the waters. "I can only see the horizon." Takumi stated with a blunt face. Kagome release a light snicker. "I got to say, it's quite beautiful." Kagome said with a soft smile as she looked on how the sun slowly set.
Takumi was watching Kagome with the corner of his eyes, her face focused on the sun set, giving her a peaceful expression. He also let his eyes feast on the mesmerizing view. "Hai, quite beautiful indeed." He spoke softly as soft smile came on his face.
Then the smile turned into a smirk. "Kinda romantic, don't you think?" He glanced over at her. A soft blush came on her cheeks as she nodded. "Kinda a perfect moment for a kiss, don't you think?" Kagome snapped her to him just in time to see a face closing in on her.
"Get away you hentai!" She shouted as she slapped his face. Hard. Takumi landed a few feet further and she stomped away angry. Takumi brought laughing lightly, his hand to his red cheek. When he placed his hand on it he noticed it stung. Not like it would normally should when someone got hit, but like it stung like it was burned.
"Jeez… Baka Takumi with his hentai and sadistic personality." After putting some distance between her and the group she ploffed down on the sand and sighed.
"Why does it feel so familiar…?" She wondered. The feeling of sulking, the feeling of wanting some time on her own, and above all the feeling of wanting him to chase her… but who was that him.
Distant voices brought her back, she scanned her surroundings and saw a group of children surrounding something and kicking it. She quickly made her way to them. "Oi! Quit it!" She said sternly and the kids listened and ran away while giggling.
"Geez…" She sighed; she crunched over and saw that the thing they had been bullying was a turtle that was flipped over. "You poor thing…" Kagome whispered softly as she picked it up to place it back on it feet. "There you go."
"Is that a turtle?"
"Yeah, it is. They are very wise, did you know that, Shippo-chan?" Kagome widened her eyes in realization as she quickly looked around, but there was no one there. Before she truly got to register what had happened the three animals made their way to her followed by Takumi.
"Is that a turtle?" Dog asked, Kagome looked back at the see creature who peacefully made its was over the sand. "Yeah… it is." She answered. She ignored the trio whispering among themselves before climbing on top of the shell of the turtle and entering the water.
"We'll go to Oni Island on this turtle's back." Dog said with a weird fake smile. "We'll lead the way and check things out." Pheasant said.
"Itekimasu!" The trio waved with satisfied smiles and the slowly went further in the ocean. "Isn't this about to turn into a separate story?" Kagome questioned out loud as she watched them disappear into the water. "I think it'll be fine." Takumi replied with an uncaring tone.
.
.
.
A few second later the idiotic trio came back up.
"I can't breath! Monkey complained.
"Was it trying to kill us?!" Dog yelled frustrated.
"I can't swim!" Pheasant said as he struggled to stay above water.
After fishing up the three animals, Kagome and Takumi continued to ride the boat, planning on using to get to the Oni Island. "Will we be fine with this puny boat?" Monkey questioned as he inspected the vessel.
"What are we going to do if we get stranded? We don't even have any food." Pheasant whined. "If that happens, we'll eat you guys." Takumi stated dryly, making the animals cling at each other. "We knew it…"
Pheasant spread his wings and began flying high in the sky. "Pheasant! You go find the Oni Island from the sky!" Monkey shouted. "Roger!" Pheasant replied and then vanished into the sky.
A few hours later the moon was shining brightly in the night. "We can't see any land…" Monkey began. "Pheasant isn't returning." Dog said with tears threatening to fall. "He probably ran away." Takumi concluded he quickly looked away when the animals began yelling at him. "Our bond is strong!"
"You guys were offering each other when you were about to get eaten." Takumi retorted with a smirk. "I'm hungry…" The dog changed the subject, Monkey nodded in understanding. "Me too." He said.
"Ah!" Takumi brought the attention to him. "Look what I have left." He said as he pulled out a kibi-dango from his pocket. Monkey and Dog began drooling. "Here." Takumi threw the remaining snack at them in order to begin the fight.
Kagome watched with slight amuse as they were desperately fighting for the food. Then it suddenly fell into the ocean, lost for all. "My kibi-dango…" Monkey whispered as a tear left his eye. "Don't you have some kind of food in that stupid big bag of yours?!" Dog yelled at Kagome as he pointed to the yellow back.
Kagome pondered for a second before rumbling through her bag. Once again the boys had hope. "Well, the only things in here are some types of… souvenirs." She said hesitating. "Souvenirs? What do you mean with that?!" Monkey asked. Kagome smiled mysteriously. "Well, reminiscence of battles, people I've met." She said as her eyes landed on some sort of charm that looked like a boomerang.
"Oh, also my bow and arrows." She said as she pulled them out, making the animals paled instantly and Takumi raise a brow. "I almost forgot I had these." She said with a smile, as she adjusted the arrow bag to her back.
"And w-why would y-you need a bow?" Dog asked nervously. "To fight the Oni of course." Kagome smiled. "It's very important that I get the shard back." She said simply.
Suddenly a bright light came from beneath the ocean floor, from it came young man clad in traditional robes. "Did you guys drop this normal kibi-dango? Or is it this stack of postcards that could win you a year's worth of kibi-dango? Or, is it this postcard that could win you the Hokkaido Sea Food Set that gives you king crab, sea urchin, salmon roe and scallops?" The male asked. Kagome narrowed her eyes at the young man.
"Uhm, that normal kibi-dango." Monkey answered. The man nodded. "I see. You're an honest man." The man looked at them. "As a prize, I'll give you this postcard that could win you the Hokkaido Sea Food Set." He handed the postcard over.
Monkey looked confused at what laid in his hands. "What about a postbox?" He asked the young man. "There' one in the village by the ocean 30KM from here due north-west-north." The young man answered. "When do we get the prize?" This time Dog asked. "The drawing is in a month. The winner will be notified through the actual mailing of the prize."
A moment of quiet, before the remaining animals could yell at the man he had disappeared in the water, causing the two to shout even harder. Kagome sighed, then a head that was sticking out on the other side of the boat. "Be safe Nee-san." Kagome smiled "Arigatou, Souta-kun."
"Whom are you talking to?" Dog asked annoyed that she was ignoring them. "Yeah! Was it that bastard again?!" Monkey made his way over to her side of the boat and began yelling at the water. "I want my kibi-dango back!" Dog glared at his comrade. "It was my kibi-dango!"
And so the began fighting again.
After using up all their energy yelling and fighting, the two idiots were sound asleep and so was Kagome. She was leaning against the railway, with her head resting on her hands as she slept. Takumi was the only one awake.
He watched Kagome breathe in and out, until he decided to walk over to her. "Kagome…" He started as he kneeled in front of her, his hand slowly inching towards her face. "Why won't you tell me how you feel?" He asked, his hands almost made contact with her skin when a pink electric like touch went through his body, preventing him from touching her.
"Because I don't know if I'm allowed to feel that way." She mumbled. "You're not him." She whispered. "But you're not entirely Ningen either… I can't read your aura, I don't know how you think, so I can't truly trust you." Her eyes opened slowly. "And I'm scared that if I do submit to the feelings I have for you, something will happen again taking you away from me."
Her eyes stared at Takumi's emerald orbs. "Gomen ne, Takumi. I need you to wait a little longer till I'm sure that I no longer need to be tied to that world."
Takumi wanted to respond to her, touch her. However a distant call cut their eye contact. "Oi!" they could hear someone shout. "Isn't that Pheasant?" Takumi was the first to stand up and turn away from the other. Kagome sighed and followed his sight. Dog and Monkey were immediately up after hearing the name of their missing friend. "He's back!" They chanted happily.
"Save me! Save me!" They heard again, in view did come Pheasant, however they did not expect to see him tied up to gigantic ship. "Save me!" he yelled once more, Kagome could see that the ship was haunted or something and on the mast was written Miyabigaoka. The auras she felt in the school made her sigh. 'Nande?' she begged in her head desperate for an answer why it almost did this to her.
"Save me! They're going to kill us!" Pheasant shouted again, tears dripping down his face in fear of facing death. "Huh? So your friends are the ones I see on that cheap boat? What a letdown." A voice spoke cocky. "I don't think I can get much out of them, so I hope you'll let me have some fun at least. To start things out, beg for your life."
Kagome ignored the tree idiots shouting at each other and looked at the unknown man. "Haven't your ancestors learned their lessons?" /she asked him the man raised a brow. "Oh, and what would you know about my ancestors, your nothing but a rotten Ningen." The man said with a smug smirk. A thick mark appeared on Kagome's face. "This "rotten Ningen" knows enough that if you won't leave us alone, you'll face the consequences." She said with her hands at her hips.
Then out of nowhere a girl climbed on the boat from the water, taking away everyone's attention. "Could it be, the turtle we saved?" Monkey's eyes shimmered. "Then, it came to say thank you?" Dog wondered as the watched as the young lady flipped her beautiful golden locks. The girl then pulled some sort of tent up from the boat, what covered her and then peeked at them. "Would you promise not to look inside?" She asked sweetly of them.
Dog and Monkey nodded their head quickly and saw he disappear behind the curtains again. A light went on within the tent, causing the lady's delicate silhouette to be visible. The two boys quickly looked away. "Mustn't peek! She must have brought an amazing weapon!" Monkey and Dog reminded themselves.
Kagome and Takumi just looked on with stoic faces. "Isn't this about to turn into another story again?" Kagome said again. "I think it'll be fine." Takumi responded not really caring of what would happen to them.
The light went out, Monkey and Dog slowly turned around again with blushing faces. The light was out, so that meant they could peek, right? Nothing happened, so they decided to peek. "What is she doing?" Monkey questioned with a dirty grin on his face. They both opened up the curtain, but there was no girl with golden locks, instead there was a boy with a blonde wig.
"A mysterious guy is sleeping there!" Monkey shouted shocked. "Who the hell is he?" Dog cried with him. "Get lost." Monkey kicked the tent along with the boy back in the water out of anger, and disappointment.
"What kind of stupid skit was that?" The pirate, who had been quiet until now spoke harshly. "That's enough!" The pointed the gun what had been loaded and cocked at them. "I can't play along with this." He pulled the trigger, however before it could reach them it stopped midair and fell in the ocean.
The man glared at Kagome. "Oh? So you stopped the bullet with your sword? As expected of a Miko." He smirked tiger like traits came forth. "And here I thought that Youkai had too much pride to rely on Ningen weapons." Kagome spoke. "I guess I was wrong, Tora." She said with a smirk.
Takumi stared at her. "Miko?" The girl just spared him a glance before focusing back on the matter at hand. Tora smirk widened. "Interesting. You come here." Here pulled the trigger again, this time chains shot out. Not expecting the chains, Kagome was too late to put up her barrier so it captured her. "Come up." Tora repeated with a more twisted face.
Takumi glared at how the male pulled Kagome towards him. He sighed. "I believe I told you before." He began. "She's not someone you can touch so nonchalantly." Takumi's glare at him tightened as he pulled out a bazooka from his coat. Dog and Monkey hugged each other scared to be his victims. "I suggest you plug your ears." Takumi added before firing.
The bazooka created two holes in the ship, causing it to catch flame. Me shouted in panic as the fire spread. "I think you should get away." Takumi added to the stunned captain. Instead Tora just smirked and placed the gun over his shoulder, the blazing fire behind him. "Hmn." He huffed. "What an interesting bunch."
After morning came they finally arrived at the terrifying Oni Island. "Oi, can we really beat them?" Dog asked nervously. "We don't even have a weapon." Pheasant, who had joined them once again, commented. "I know! At a time like this, we'll use that little trick." Monkey began rumbling around his clothes and pulled out a straw.
"Tada!" He showed it to his friends. "We're going to trade this with one thing after another. It's just a straw now, but eventually, it'll turn into an amazing weapon!" He exclaimed.
"For real?" Dog asked astonished. Monkey nodded and looked over at Pheasant. "You got anything to trade this with to start it out?" He asked. Pheasant nodded and pulled out pocket tissue. "Tada!" They looked at Dog who followed. "Tada!" He said as he showed them his broken dog whistle.
Kagome ignored them as she took her bow from her shoulders. "This will do." She said, but lowered her hand. "But it makes me wonder…" She whispered to herself, Takumi had called her over before she finished the thought.
"Oi, Vice, check this out." He pointed to some board what read; "Oni Island Uniform. Wear this if you want to join us. Available in three different sizes." Kagome read out.
"So?" She looked at him as she grabbed a small. "Do we sneak in pretending we want to become a part of them?" She looked at him. "But the place feels very calm, I feel no youki suppressing the human aura." Kagome said softly more to herself than to Takumi, but he heard it nonetheless.
Kagome looked at the bag in her hands again and sighed. "I suppose it would prevent them from causing a scene." She went and walked over to a rock to change behind it.
*Poof*
Before she left, the idiotic trio had changed into a more animalistic side of them. "We'll go first with our realistic version, pretending to be wild animals." Monkey said as he led them inside.
Pheasant glanced at his friends. "If it doesn't look like we've got any chance, let's get out of here." He said and they nodded in agreement. "What does it look like?" Dog peeked inside and his heart throbbed. The room was filled with young ladies, dressed in maid kimonos.
"This is paradise!" Dog exclaimed. "It's a maid harem!" They all shouted as they threw themselves in the crowd of girls. However a sudden pull got them back to the ground. "Don't forget our mission, San Baka!" they looked up and saw Kagome dressed in the same uniform as the other girls.
"I feel the Shikon Shard here somewhere…" She said as she looked around. "What is this about?" A maid questioned as she watched worriedly at them. "Come to think of it, where's Takumi?" Kagome asked herself, as she didn't see the man anywhere from the moment she was done changing. She figured he had already went inside but he was nowhere to be found.
"Right here." A masculine voice said, bringing Kagome's attention to the stairs where a figure was slowly walking down.
"Okaeri, Master." The girls were all standing in two lanes and bowed as the "Master" came down. Kagome watched confused as a familiar man walked down the stairs. Her eyes narrowed as she saw light coming from the pocket, something only she could see.
"Takumi… you're the Oni?" She asked feeling betrayed and hurt by the reveal. Takumi smirked, his clad was off and all he was wearing were pants and a blouse. "Did I not say that I'm an Oni?" He played innocent as he twirled his hand around with his hand.
"But I am the Ring Master of the Moron Trio Circus." He said as a matter of fact. "I've heard that already!" Kagome shouted at him. "So you had the jewel, knowing full well that I was searching for it?" Kagome asked.
His hat disappeared and his hand went to his pocket as he pulled out a shiny pink shard. "You're talking about this?" He questioned almost mockingly. "I found it on the beach, I never knew it was that important."
Kagome sighed. "And the girls? They weren't kidnapped were they?" Kagome asked until a girl interrupted her. A name went through Kagome's head as she looked at the girl. Honoka.
"Oi! What do you mean kidnapped?" She questioned rudely. "We live here out of our own freewill." Another woman answered. Satsuki. Honoka nodded. "I was getting fed up with the lifestyle there. The guys were dirty and selfish."
Satsuki nodded along excitedly. "A good-looking guy showed up, so we followed him. Then we found this island pretty cozy. It's comfortable living and our eyes are constantly pleased."
The other girls began chatting too, talking about how the enjoy where they were living now. "So they took over my house." Takumi said. "How pitiful I am." He started walking towards Kagome.
"I knew it…" Kagome muttered under her breath. She opened her eyes and stared at Takumi. "Then all I will ask of you is to return the Shikon shard to me." She said as she stretched out her hand. "And what if I refuse?" Takumi provoked with a grin.
"Then I'm afraid I'll have to force you." Kagome said as she pulled an arrow and aimed at him. Takumi released a laugh, and looked at her. His face held an unknown expression to the girls as he closed in the distance between him and Kagome.
"There is no need for that." He said as he took her hand and placed the jewel there. "It's all yours, just like me." He kissed her hand. Kagome's face went red and she slapped his hand away. "W-What are you doing?"
"Showing my affection." He said, as he got closer to her. "Don't touch her!" A voice shouted. A young boy suddenly stood between them in traditional clothes with armor around his body, a long fluffy scarf went around his body, his golden eyes piercing Takumi's body.
"Don't touch my Okaa-san!" He yelled even louder. Takumi's eyes went to Kagome who stood confused. "We already have a son?" He questioned to where Kagome slapped his face. "Of course not, hentai!"
As Kagome continued to scold Takumi, they did not notice a tall man entering the building and picked the child up. Next to him was another child, a girl with an orange kimono and a bright smile, also an imp who was following the man like a lost puppy.
"Miko." A cool voice came; Kagome looked at him and saw that him and the boy were like copies. "H-Hai?" Kagome straightened her back. "Get yourself together, you are to expect more troubles in the future." He said coolly as he turned around. The girl and the imp following him. "This Sesshoumaru does approve of your relationship, he has potential."
"Sayonara, Kagome-nee-san!" The young girl waved at her, but it was what the man, Sesshoumaru said to her. She could feel Takumi smirk from behind her. "At least I have his approval, a Kitsune and an Ookami to go."
"Thus, the two started daring."
"Iie! We did not!"
"The two set off on a new trip together, but that's a whole different story. All is well that ends well."
Kagome shot up from her seat at her desk. A yawn preoccupying her movements.
"What kind of dream was that?"
KT: Here I am again! I hope you guys liked this chapter, cause I certainly did XD And Holy crap this was the first time I had to wait to weeks, kinda refreshing too. You see I always have a deadline, because of school, at a certain time the amount of reviews to post the next week needs to be reached. If not then it's going to be the week after that. So that is why the update was a week later. Then I also had a party and I fell asleep before I could post it… Yeah that was on me (-.-')
Review:
15 Next Week
