Yo, Minna-san!! It's the next chapter for those of you who like it and for those of you who don't!! Because I'm continuing it anyways!! I like it too much!!! Well, I hope this turns out good! Yo, Bat Lord!! Do the disclaimer!!

Bat Lord: Okie-dokie!! Master Ghaleon does not own Yu Yu Hakusho or it's characters and she does not own Inuyasha and it's characters!! She doesn't own me and I'm glad of it! Because I'm a person who actually knows her and being stuck with her would be...... scary.

Me: *shining a chainsaw* What......?

Crossing Paths chapter 2 "I haven't seen him in 15 years..."

"Hey, Shippo.... Shippo!", Kagome was trying to get Shippo out of his trance. He had been sitting next to the same tree all day, just looking into the sky. They had made camp in the forest where there was a clearing.

"Inuyasha, I don't think he's going to move.", Kagome looked over to him with an I'm-getting-worried look. Inuyasha was sitting on the ground a few feet away from Shippo. He sighed, then he stood up, walked over to Shippo, and yelled in his ear.

"SHIPPO!!! WAKE UP!!!"

Shippo literally jumped five feet into the air and landed in Kagome's arms. He saw that it was only Inuyasha.

"What was that for??", Shippo yelled at Inuyasha.

"You wouldn't get up!! We need to go after more fragments of the Sacred Jewel!"

"Well, you could've just told me instead of scaring me to death!!"

"Kagome did! AND IT DIDN'T WORK!!!!"

"STOP IT ALREADY!!!", Kagome yelled at the two. They immediately stopped fighting and turned away from each other.

"Good! We should get going. Where are Sango and Miroku?", Kagome asked looking around their camp.

"YOU SICK, PERVERTED MONK!!!", Sango's voice yelled from in the forest. They all heard a loud 'SLAP!' come from the same place.

All of them in the clearing sweat-dropped.

"There they are......", Kagome stated. Sango came walking into the clearing. Her face was red and she looked angry. Miroku came shortly after, his face was red. Well, that was because he had this large hand mark on his face.

"Alright, let's go.", Inuyasha said and walked into the forest.

"But everyone's not here, Inuyasha!!", Kagome yelled to him.

"That's the point!"

"Forget it, Inuyasha! I'm not leaving without Mika!!", Shippo stood up in Kagome's arms and yelled at Inuyasha.

Inuyasha just kept walking, ignoring Shippo completely. Shippo got mad and started yelling at him some more. Kagome got an idea that would stop Inuyasha.

"SIT, BOY!!", Kagome yelled and Inuyasha went straight to the ground face first.

"That'll teach you to leave people behind!", A female voice came from a tree above Inuyasha. A demon with white fox ears, golden eyes, and white hair jumped out of the tree and landed next to Inuyasha. She was wearing blue pants, a pink tank-top/ belly shirt, and she wore a pink sweater around her waist.

"I can't believe you actually would've left me behind! That's mean!", Mika yelled at Inuyasha.

Inuyasha sat up after the spell wore off and asked her where she had been.

"Oh, me? I was finding the way out of this forest, and I found it!!!", Mika got everyone together and they headed for the forest exit. Mika carried Shippo, Miroku walked beside Sango and Inuyasha by Kagome.

Kagome was curious why Shippo was in a trance-like state all day, and she asked him just that.

"Well, I was thinking about my cousin."

"Your cousin?", Inuyasha asked. He was curious now.

"Yeah, my cousin, Yoko Kurama! But I just call him Kurama.", Shippo seemed happy thinking about his cousin.

"Why haven't we met him? We've been a lot of places, why haven't we seen him?", Inuyasha asked.

Shippo's happy mood dissipated and he now looked sad.

"I haven't seen him in fifteen years. He just sorta........ disappeared! And I haven't been able to find him. That's one reason I joined you guys. I've got to find him. He promised me a while ago that if anything ever happened to my parents, that he would take care of me! And he would train me to be a powerful fox-demon!", Shippo's face lit up with happiness for a split-second, then went sad again.

Mika glared at Inuyasha for making Shippo sad. Everyone thought that Mika was just protective of Shippo, that she thought of him as her kit. But it was different. Mika was crazy about Shippo (Like Zuro to Kurama), but he was far too young to have a mate yet. So Mika was going to wait another fifty to a hundred years for Shippo to grow older.

"Geez. With how much you want to protect Shippo I think that you and this Kurama would be perfect for each other!", Inuyasha laughed out loud. This was enough for Shippo. He leaped out of Mika's arms and threw an attack on Inuyasha.

"Illusory Top!!"

Kurama, Hiei and Zuro made their way through the forest when they woke up the next morning. They were making pretty good time since they were all extremely fast. They hadn't heard anyone in the forest yet, but Kurama had told them that they were now in Shippo's homeland, Feudal Japan. (A/N: Sorry peoples. I'm screwing around with the Makai. But I need to to make this story work!) So now they were looking for any sign of life.

About an hour later Zuro heard something off in the forest.

"Kurama! There's something in the forest!"

"Where?!", Kurama asked urgently. They all stopped and looked towards where Zuro heard something. Kurama and Hiei heard it too, so they all ran in that direction. They came to a clearing and hid themselves.

"Illusory Top!!", out of instinct, Zuro jumped into the clearing, where a fight was obviously going on, whipped out her fire whip, and hit the large flying top out of the air. Everyone in the clearing looked at Zuro as if she were a threat and pulled out their weapons.

"Zuro!" Kurama yelled to her, but Hiei stopped him by putting his hand over Kurama's mouth.

"Shh!! Do you want to give away our position??", Hiei whispered urgently. Kurama calmed down and watched Zuro. He didn't see Shippo, Zuro was obstructing his view of him.

Inuyasha had the Tetsuaiga drawn and pointed towards Zuro. "Who are you?", He asked. Zuro had a fire sword pointed to him and her fire whip in the other hand.

"I could ask you the same thing.", she answered. Inuyasha laughed.

"It'd be smart to answer my question, fox! You're outnumbered, 5 to 1!", Actually, Mika couldn't see Zuro up in the tree she hid herself in before this all started.

'My sister, Zuro, always told me that surprise was the best tactic to use against the enemy. So if a battle starts, I'll ambush the intruder.'

"Bring it on, dog-boy. I can take you all on!", Zuro hissed and readied herself for battle.

"ZURO, DON'T!!!!", Kurama wouldn't let her do this. So he ran out into the clearing and stood behind her after yelling.

"Kurama?", Zuro turned around to look at Kurama.

"KURAMA?!", Shippo heard Kurama's name and looked at the newly-appeared person.

"SHIPPO?!", Kurama yelled back.

"Shippo?", Mika hopped down out of the tree to look at Shippo.

"Mika?", Shippo looked over at Mika.

"MIKA?!", Zuro looked at Mika.

"Zuro?", Mika looked confused.

"MIKA!!!", Zuro yelled happily.

"Zuro!!"

"Mika!!"

"Kurama!!"

"Shippo!!"

"Shippo? Who is this?", Mika asked.

"Mika!! This is my cousin, Kurama!!", Shippo yipped.

"Shippo? You're Shippo?!", Zuro yipped.

"Yeah!! And you're Zuro? Mika's sister?!"

"Yeah!!!"

The four all hugged each other and started to catch up with each other, while Kagome, Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, and Hiei all sweat-dropped.
