Chapter 3- One Third of What?!
======
Kagome and the others, even Inu-Yasha and Seito,
moved slowly a few feet away from the dark-sword
weilding swordswoman. Seito began to sweat
nervously as she cowered back against the cherryblossom
tree. [N-nani? My friend is only 1/3 human?!]
Kuroi sighed and crossed her long, cream-colored arms.
"Daijobu? You all seem like you've seen a massacre.
Why are you all staring at me like that?" Kuroi closed
her eyes and thought about a logical reason of why they
seemed so afraid of her all of a sudden. Kaede, watching
the scene from a boulder adjacent to her hut, strolled
over.
Kaede looked at Kagome. "I welcome you back, Kagome. But
why are you staring at this girl? Besides the fact that
her name means 'dark and dangerous' and she has some
powers we have yet not really seen of?"
Kagome stuttered nervously,"Kuroi just s-said s-she was
o-only one-t-third human.." Kuroi stared.
"Oh! So THAT'S why you're staring at me." Kuroi didn't
laugh, just stared back, then to Kaede. "Lady Kaede,
do you know of where Sesshomaru is?" Seito snapped
out of her gaze and glomped Kuroi, who fell over on impact.
"OW OW OW OW OW..." Kuroi tried to squeeze out of Seito's
glomp, but to no avail.
"I WANT MY SESS-CHAN!" Seito yelled and begged.
Inu-Yasha tightened his grip once again on the steel-
cleaving fang's hilt. "Brother....ugh."
Kaede looked at the sky, which began to darken as the
golden orb began to set. Inu-Yasha grunted. [Kuso.
Why did it have to be now?]
"Let us go into my hut. It shall be dark soon." Kaede
led the group to her hut, which wasn't as far as Seito
thought it would be.
The eight sat around the fire in the middle of the hut.
Kuroi, absently, sat next to Inu-Yasha, who tried to
ignore her. Inu-Yasha's hair changed, unexpectedly,
from white, to gray, to jet black. His youkai claws
were replaced with human fingers, and his fangs
molded into regular, normal human teeth. "Great." Inu-
Yasha groaned.
Kuroi sipped the herbal tea that Kaede-baba had
given her, as if she didn't notice the halfling's change,
although she did. "As expected." Kuroi continued to
sip her tea as she said her comment, referring to Inu-Yasha.
"What? You...knew about...my secret?" Inu-Yasha stared at
the serious-minded girl sitting next to him.
Kuroi set her tea down. "Of course. I know a lot about you,
Inu-Yasha. Also the fact about Kikyo and that Kagome is
her reincarnation.
Kuroi continued, despite Kagome's glares. "As well as.."
the girl hesitated. She knew it was a very touchy subject.
"You feelings."
"Feh. What feelings?" Inu-Yasha pretended to not care,
although he wondered how she knew. Kuroi chuckled,
but dared not smile, nor say anything any further. [I
was right. Inu-chan. You don't want me here one bit,
and you never will.]
Kuroi stared into the feiry reflections of the flame
in front of her. Sango looked at Kuroi, with sad eyes,
as if she sensed that Kuroi felt alone. "Kuroi?"
Kuroi looked at the fire, but answered. "What is it,
huntress?"
"What did you mean by '1/3 human'?"
Kuroi was startled and closed her eyes as she began to
explain. "I am 1/3 human, 1/3 dragon, and...." Kuroi
stared at Inu-Yasha, who was suprisedly listening
intently. "1/3...youkai. Actually, don't let the one
third fool you. I am a full version of each, except human."
Seito looked at Kuroi and smiled. She had never known
anyone who was other than human. "So you mean that you
are full youkai and full dragon, but only a little human.
THAT'S COOL!"
"Nani?" Shippo stared at the caucasian brown-haired girl.
Kagome looked at Kuroi. "How can that be?"
Kuroi shook her head. "I knew you would ask too many
questions, Kagome.
"I am the reincarnation of an evil dragon named Dederi.
He was and is half dragon and half youkai. His first form was
a war demonic-energy made youkai. He was betrayed by
me and my companions' worst enemy, Emperor Youma. A magi..
healed part of him...so he was converted to half full
dragon...That's how....I.." Kuroi stared into the flames
more intensely.
Seito crawled over to Kuroi and patted her back gently.
"You're the coolest friend I've ever met, Kuroi."
Kuroi stared. "Demo..."
"Who cares? Besides you have one more similarity to
you-know-who."
Kuroi blushed. "N-nani..?! Seito please don't!"
Seito grinned. "Oh, you mean you wished to come here
because you l-"
Kuroi lost it. She drew out her long sword quickly and
swiped at Seito, who ducked. "OMAE NO KUROSU IF YOU
DON'T SHUT YOUR MOUTH, SEITO!" Kuroi put her sword next
to the scabbard of Inu-Yasha's tetsusiaga. "At least
I'm not head-over-heals for Sesshomaru." Kuroi sat back down
and drank her tea as everyone turned their attention to
Seito in disbelief. Kuroi continued her last comment.
"I suggest you not ask Seito of anything." Kuroi sipped
her tea. Seito smiled.
"Phew."
Miroku grinned slyly. "Oh-ho. Is that the reason you
wanted to come here, Seito?"
Seito spazzed. "HAI HAI HAI!"
Inu-Yasha stared at Kuroi, who seemed to be suddenly
unconfortable about something. "What's your reason?"
Inu-Yasha asked, miraculously gentle.
Kuroi stared at Inu-Yasha. His black hair accented his
dazzling blue eyes (Is it blue? ^^;). Kuroi stood up
and walked outside. "None of your concern."
Kuroi looked up at a tree right next to Kaede's hut (NOT
the cherryblossom tree). She jumped up and lied down in
the branches as she looked at the white moon that floated
above her.
Seito walked out as Kuroi heard a yelp of pain, most
likely Miroku's. Kuroi grinned. [The hentai's at it again.]
Seito looked up at her good friend. "Why don't you just
come out and say it?"
Kuroi closed her eyes and relaxed. "It'll show a weakness.
I NEVER show a weakness." Kuroi opened her eyes once more
to gaze at the moon. She yawned as she found herself
nearly out of energy.
Seito grinned. "If you haven't noticed, you're sleeping
in Inu-Yasha's spot." Seito laughed her head off.
Kuroi smiled slightly at the brown-haired teenager.
"Why else do you think I'm sleeping here?"
Seito stared. "Whoa. You plan these things dontcha?"
"I don't plan. I just play along with this time. I don't
want anyone to think of me as a weakling or a strange
girl, not that no one does."
Seito sighed. "Well, I'm going back inside. Something funny
might happen." Seito giggled as she ran back inside.
Inu-Yasha leaned on the straw wall of Kaede's hut as he
watched Kagome, Seito, Miroku, and Sango talk. His mind
was on someone else though. [What the heck is Kuroi so
unconfortable with? She should be proud to be a FULL
youkai..] Inu-Yasha involuntarily walked outside.
[I hate being in my human-form.]
Inu-Yasha wanted to sleep, but found his usual spot on
the tree next to Kaede's hut taken. Kuroi looked
up at the sky. Her hair shined a dark, mysterious blood
red (her highlights) as her face showed loneliness.
Inu-Yasha jumped up and sat on a branch next to Kuroi.
"What the heck are you so mopey about?" Inu-Yasha asked,
almost harshly.
Kuroi stared. [N-nani?] "None of your concern."
"Feh." Inu-Yasha lied down on the branch he was sitting
on. "That's my spot you're in, thirdling."
"Thirdling?" Kuroi wondered. "Why do you call me that,
HALFLING?"
"Because I'm a halfling because I'm youkai-human, even
though I hate to admit it, and you're human-youkai-
dragon. You should be proud of it."
"Hn." Kuroi grunted. "I can't..."
Inu-Yasha sensed some angst. "Nani? Why? You're a
full youkai!" Inu-Yasha yelled.
"I can't control my demon form....I.." Kuroi's eyes
shed tears as she remembered almost killing her
comrades with her demonic power the first time she
used them. "I become a completely different entity.."
Inu-Yasha's eyes softened. "You can overcome it."
"You don't know the burden of my youkai form."
"Feh. What burden?"
"I hold the Gauntlet of Chiosu, you damned halfling."
Kuroi's left hand curled into a fist.
"What the hell is that?" Inu-Yasha stared.
"It controls the power to call forth the evil of others
and strengthen evil spirits. In and out of any form,
I also have the power to turn into a shadow. But..
If broken, the Gauntlet of Chiosu will unleash Chaos
upon all that live...And I die.."
Inu-Yasha watched her talk, sadness and strength glittering
in her black-brown eyes. Kuroi yawned. "You better get
some sleep." Inu-Yasha said. Kuroi nodded reluctantly.
Kuroi fell asleep on the large branch. A few moments
later, Inu-Yasha began to snore.
The orangey orb (hehe. that sounds cool) began to
creep over the mountains overlooking the village.
Kagome opened her eyes slowly as the others in the hut
began to stir. "Morning already?"
Inu-Yasha felt his demon-form return as he stretched.
"Finally." Inu-Yasha looked for Kuroi, who he thought
was still sleeping, but found her training with her
sword. Her black sword slashed wildly and ferociously,
but not blindly. Inu-Yasha stared at her movements
for a moment, Kuroi's hair shimmered her dark red
highlights once more, her sweat glittering off her
looking like little sprinkles of rain spraying
down onto the damp earth.
Inu-Yasha looked on as Seito and Kuroi laughed and
talked. Inu-Yasha actually smiled. Miroku walked
out.
Miroku yelled up to Inu-Yasha. "Ready to go?"
=========
AN: That's it.
Inu-Yasha: You mention Kuroi's highlights too much.
Kuroi: whatever.
Me: Kuroi who do you want to be paired up with?
Kuroi: n-nani?!?
Me: ::grins::
Seito: Not Sesshomaru! He mine! ^_^
Kuroi: feh.
