Chapter 6: What Do We Do Now?

Inuyasha slid his tongue over his teeth- now fangs. He looked down at his hand: claws met his eyes. His senses improved greatly too. Sango, Miroku, and Kouga's steady breathing was heard by the now youkai Inuyasha. Those cute dog-ears of his turned to hear Kagome's gasp of surprise.

"Kagome." He began, "What just happened?" His voice sounded urgent but his eyes showed an almost hidden sense of fear, which he quickly hid.

Kikyo sat on a chair, enjoying the sight of her sister and friend. She hadn't seemed shocked at all, just amused. It didn't make any sense at all! Then Kagome reached out her hands towards his twitching ears. She cooed at the softness of his ears.

"These ears are SOOO cute!" She kept at it for some time before noticing her sister was out of the room. Inuyasha looked embarrassed at someone that he had just met touching his recently revealed ears. However, he liked the contact. He began to purr, but NOT like a cat.

"Hey," Inuyasha said, just noticing that Kikyo was no where in sight. "where did Kikyo go? Wasn't she just here?"

"I don't know so don't look at me. I was too busy petting your cute little ears!" Inuyasha started to blush.

"Hey, are you OK?"

"Ummm."

That was a good enough answer for Kagome.

"OK then, goodnight." Kagome said with a yawn

"Night." Inuyasha replied before backing out the door himself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*The Next Morning*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At around 9:00 the next morning, Kagome walked out of her room all ready to go. Then she caught sight of everyone else still sleeping on her couch. 'They look like little angels' She thought then she smiled wickedly to herself.

"GET UP!" She yelled out loud.

All of the sleeping 'angels' jumped about five feet into the air.

"Where's the fire?" Kouga asked, falling to the floor with a THUMP. Sango and Miroku were clutching their chests to stop their rapidly beating hearts.

"Hey did you have to yell so damn loud?" Inuyasha asked while messaging his aching ears.

"Whoops.sorry about that. I forgot that you had those ears now." Kagome said ^_^'

When everyone's surprise died down they turned to look at Inuyasha. He, on the other hand, was becoming a bit self concious with everyone staring at him.

"Um, Inuyasha? When did you get those." Miroku trailed off. Then he softly added, "I thought your mom had a sealing spell put on you. To hide those."

"Wha..? Oh, I was so small when she did that. I um, guess. I forgot? He, he, he." Inuyasha looked embarassed. Meanwhile everyone fell over.

"You mean that you knew that you were a hanyou the whole time and you didn't tell us?!?" Kagome and Kikyo sounded pissed. If you saw them right now you would see fire dancing in their eyes. Any person would have thought that those two were full fledged demons. Those two also shouldn't be crossed right now but Miroku wouldn't pass up this perfect chance to grope two beautiful women.

"Miroku," Kikyo began. Then Kagome jumped in.

"How would you like to be killed by not one, but two very, very pissed off mikos?"

Miroku went pale.

"You wouldn't really do that to your buddy would you?" He began backing away from the twins. By now he didn't doubt that they would kill him on the spot so he smartly changed the subject while still backing away.

"Well what happened last night? We were worried." Then all of a sudden he felt like he walked into something, or rather someone. Sango to be exact. She looked just as dangerous as the two in front of him.

"Where do you think you're going?" Her voice was dripping with sweetness. And get this- a little too sweet for Miroku.

Kouga and Inuyasha just sat on the couch, watching their helpless friend cowering in front of three girls. With all of the distraction Kikyo and Kagome began to chant a little spell for Miroku unnoticed. They had somehow gotten Sango in on the plot.

"Hey, didn't you want to know about what happened last night?" Inuyasha asked. He seemed to know about the plot too.

"Why yes I do what to know. So what did you two do last night?"

"If you want to know then get your brain out of the gutter." Kagome said evilly.

About an hour later the events of last night were told to the group. Then they all just sat there, thinking.

~Kikyo and Kagome's thoughts~

It was a bit strange but Kagome and Kikyo were having a silent conversation in their mind.

'Hey Kikyo, do you think that we should go and find Amaterasu or do you really think that she'll come to us?' Kagome thought.

'Well I'm not sure of what to do. I know that Sango will help us but I'm still not sure about the guys being involved in this.'

~Miroku~

'I wonder what we have to do. I'm sure this is a journey that the miko's have to make but I can't help but feel a need for us all to be there.'

~Sango~

'I am going to help them out one way or another. They've done so many things to help me, I need to repay the favor.'

~Inuyasha~

'How could I forget that I was a hanyou? It was so important and I just forgot like it was nothing. Well I have a feeling that if I go with Kagome and Kikyo to this Lady Amaterasu miko, I'll find out who made me forget. I know that me forgetting wasn't just an accident.'

~Kouga~

'God what am I supposed to do? I know that I'm supposed to get the jewel to Naraku but I just can't do it anymore. There is no way in hell that I can betray Kikyo and Kagome like that.'

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

They stayed in silence for a while then Sango stood up.

"You said that we had to somehow find Amaterasu right?" Sango seemed to have a plan.

"Yes, but I don't know if finding her will be that easy. She isn't exactly the easiest person to find." Kikyo looked gloomy.

"Guys we have to at least try and look for her." Miroku said.

"OK then, lets get going." Kouga responded.

"Alright, so lets get out of here." Inuyasha said while jumping off the couch.

Kagome sat there with her eyes closed. Then she opened them to show eyes that were glowing blue. Everyone thought, 'Oh no, not again.'

Then they all said the exact same thing, "What do we do now?"

^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^ OH ya! I'm back with the brand new chapter. I am sooo happy that I finally got over my writer's block. Well tell me what you think by reviewing. Thanx! ^_^
