"Uh, Naru-chan? Can we talk for a sec?" Kagome asked.

"Sure." As Naru slowly walked out of the shadows, Kagome gasped when she saw a sharp knife in her hand.

"What were you doing with a knife?" Kagome asked, trembling, scared half to death when she noticed blood covering the blade. 'What if she really is a witch?' Kagome thought.

"I was preparing the fish for tonight's dinner." Kagome saw her other hand was holding a dead, bloody catfish.

"Oh, good." Kagome let out a sigh of relief.

"You didn't think I was a serial killer, did you? Anyways, what did you want to talk about?"

"Oh, nothing much, just Inu-Yasha." She replied.

"Oh? Why? Is there something wrong?"

"Not.really. it's just that I. I wanted to know if there was anything.going on between the two of you."

"Us? Oh, I can't believe you have to ask! I know he's.off limits, and I would never think of taking him from you."

"Me? And Inu-Yasha? You have to be kidding!"

"Well, if there was nothing between you, why was it a problem if I liked him? I don't think you should be worried about Inu-Yasha and me, though. He's so nice, but he's too old for me anyways."

"Yeah. It was nice having a talk with you," Kagome said. She couldn't believe how Naru was. Perfect! Kagome had a notion to add 'Where's your halo?' but she had to hold her tongue. After all, without her, they wouldn't have found shelter.

"Naru-chan? I was hoping we could talk, if that's alright with you."

"Oh, that'd be fine. I just finished dinner, Sango-chan."

"Well, I hope you don't mind me talking about Inu-Yasha. You see, he's always been pretty rude to. all of us in fact, but lately, he's been acting just a tad nicer to Kagome-chan. We all knew there was something between them, but finally, they were doing something about it. Unfortunately, when you came along, he's been a little too perfect, so. Kagome's been worried about him. Inu-Yasha got angry that she couldn't believe he was being nice. They got in a fight and now.there's just no reasoning with them."

"That's definitely not how I thought things were working out. I thought Kagome and Inu-Yasha were already.together."

"That's how everybody wanted it, until we met you, not that we blame you. It's just that.we can't do anything for them anymore. Can you just talk to Inu-Yasha? Maybe that'll help the situation."

"Oh, sure. I totally understand." Naru replied, fiddling with her pendant. It was a tiny dragon made of jade with a diamond in the center.

A/N: Hey, if you didn't get it yet, Naru's the girl in the summary. I know she's kind of weird. Oh well, it's not a very good fic anywayz. I know it seems kind of rushed, but I don't really care. Plz review, but don't flame me that badly. Remember, I'm only in the 6th grade and my writing skills suck, if I have any.
