Team Urameshi could spot the shrine. As it's tip poked out above the trees. Though the shrines energy was lacking.

"It seems there is still some energy here" Kurama spoke feeling the light spirit aura

Everyone could feel something else as well. A dark energy that resonated with demonic power. Everyone went tense ready for any attack.

Higurashi Shrine

"Kagome! Could it be possible that a demon could've gotten hold of the shards!?" Inuyasha asked holding her tightly by the shoulders

"What? That can't be! There aren't any-"

Stopping her words as a demonic and human auras were felt. Both then faced the entrance to the shrine.

At the stairs the four acted cautiously edging towards the top. Yusuke held his arm out as the team stopped.

"I'll go first encase there's more than one" Yusuke ordered

No attempt to argue was made, but then again the influence of the Jewel warranted caution. Yusuke slowly continued as he peaked into the shrine.

Kagome and Inuyasha stared at the mouth of the entrance. Inuyasha gripped the hilt of his sword. Getting ready for any attack. As a head peaked out the two stiffened, it was then the intruder was revealed. A young man with dark hair and brown eyes entered.

"It's just a human?" Inuyasha asked which doesn't explain the powerful energy he was feeling

As Yusuke entered the shrine he wasted no time spotting the Hanyou. The expression showed aggression as the young woman behind showed worry. Seeing the demonic features of the dog demon, before he could attack. Inuyasha charged releasing his blade Tessaiga.

"Wind Scar"

A wave of energy was fired as Yusuke side dashed. Inuyasha quickly losing him in the dust cloud. Blade ready, awaiting for the intruder. Focused on any movement. Yusuke made his move, appearing by the Hanyou. A sharp uppercut landing to his chin. Getting launched mid air.

'That wasn't a strike from a regular human'

Falling on his feet, before Inuyasha could react. Another strike hit his stomach, then another. Kagome was shocked, never has she seen anyone handle Inuyasha the way this man did. Sliding back due to the force, the half breed growled. Frustration growing evermore.

Rushing, a leap sword raised high. Yusuke, jumped as well spiritual energy collecting in his fist. Landing harshly into his gut once more. Spit and vomit spewed from Inuyasha. Falling to the ground limp, as Yusuke landed safely. Staring at the downed demon, who staggered up.

"You-"

A thorn whip wrapped around his free hand, his bladed hand trapped, as a spear aimed behind his skull. Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara had constrained him. Inuyasha found out by their scent that two were demons and the other was human.

"You're demons!"

Past

While in the past within a dark cave. A demon of great influence sat. Naraku a demon who desires the Sacred Jewel shards. A singular part of his plan.

"I need those shards" speaking quietly as a female stood to the side. Her name Kagura, one of Naraku's detachment. Staring at her master who summoned demonic wasps. "I need to find a way through that well"

"How? Only the miko and hanyou are capable of such" Kagura added. Naraku grew ever so furious, a low growl heard. A thought unexpectedly found itself. Summoning a deomic wasp, as the insect hovered above it's master.

"I have a order"

Present: Shrine

The three held Inuyasha still, gritting his teeth in defiance. As he would rebel, they would hold tighter. Yusuke approached analysing the demon.

"A Hanyou" Kurama spoke in surprise. The thorn whip wrapped around Inuyasha's wrist, leaving red marks. Hiei held his sword arm, as well as a blade tip to his throat.

"What's with those ears? Is he some sort of demonic kitten?" Kuwabara asked staring at the ears.

Inuyasha growled as a vein bulged out almost. "I'm no damn cat!!" He shouted in anger struggling to get out.

"Well whatever you are, why're you here?" Yusuke demanded. The Hanyou focused on the human, or so he thought was human. Before he could shout any more profanity.

"Who do you think you are?"

Turning all present saw Kagome, arrow drawn. Her aim on Kurama, if she could assist this was how. Holding her bow string waiting for one to act. "So? Tell me who you are and why you're here?"

Yusuke eyed her, she trained in her weapon. Though not a master, expert to hit most of the time. The detective approached causing a rise out of Inuyasha. "Run Kagome!!"

The two teens met, both staring into each other's eyes. Yusuke reach into his shirt. Kagome tightened her bow, Inuyasha attempted to escape. Kagome ready to release her arrow, but full stopped.

"Do you know what these are?" Dangling from his fingers was the jewel shards. Surprise and panic appeared on her face. Unmoving til she received the full story.

"Spirit detective Yusuke Urameshi, and this is my team" answering her question. She eyed the strange team of Demons and Humans. It was like an mirror of her own group. Yusuke looked back, and nodded signaling for them to release Inuyasha. The Hanyou raised his sword, as the other three stood on guard.

"Inuyasha" Kagome spoke sternly. Her gaze held firmly. Inuyasha persisted he didn't need help. "Inuyasha!!"

"Kagome! I got this!!" He shouted, anger boiling within. His grip tightened around the hilt. Glare intensified as he stood off against them.

"Inuyasha!! Sit!!!" That command forced the Hanyou into the ground. Face smashing, creating a small crater. Team Urameshi baffled by the sight. "Now let's go inside"

Upon entering the home of Kagome Higurashi. Kagome's family sound asleep upstairs. Turning the kitchen light on, everyone surrounded the island. Placing the shards at the center, the main topic of discussion. "To think a Hanyou still alive"

The statement escaping Kurama's lips, Inuyasha threw a glare. Everyone now at his attention. "What do you mean?" Yusuke asked

"Hanyou were to have died out centuries ago, the fact he is here makes an impossible feat" Hiei answered crossing his arms. Observing from a dark corner of the room.

"Why're they so rare?" A confused Kagome asked. Seeing Inuyasha, and a few others. The curiosity of the species furthered.

"Hanyou are usually made through a demon-human mating, and other unnatural means, but they were supposedly killed off years ago since they displayed unpredictable behavior" Kurama explained, he would have been a victim if not for his skills. Inuyasha uninterested in the facts, but Kagome was. She worried if this already happened then Inuyasha was in certain trouble.

"Normally half-breeds like him don't make it very far" Hiei spat getting a growl.

"This half-breed won't be afraid to cut you down" Inuyasha went to his blade as did the fire demon. Yusuke stared at his commrade, who relaxed. "Ha! Stared down by a human"

"And you were put down by two"

A growl escaped once more, as he went lunge at Hiei. Kagome glared daggers stopping him. "So where did you find these?"

"At the market" Yusuke answered twirling them on his finger.

"Well thank you, and if I could get those-" as she went snatch them away. They flew of, and caught by their current owner.

"Not so fast, we need to know how you came by these" Kagome froze at the question. How could you give time travel an explanation. The very thought was crazy. Inuyasha attempted to move, but stopped once Yusuke aimed his finger, the devestation was remarkable. "If you can't tell us then we'll have to keep these"

"Okay, fine I'll tell you"

"Good, we'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow" Yusuke spoke making his way to the door.

"What? You don't want to hear it now!?"

"No, I'm tired, that and I'm sure someone else would like to hear your"
