Predictable Chaos - Truth and Justice
Kalea scrambled through the forest trying to find the two people she wished had never set foot on the earth. She felt a little guilty leaving the monk with Kikyo AND Rin but desperate times called for desperate measures. A vibe that Kalea was accustomed to caught her attention and seemed to come from the top of a large tree. The immortal moaned and began to climb the giant piece of timber. She created many scrapes on her skin but managed to reach her goal and found Kei and Ky sitting on a bare branch.
The two siblings stared back at Kalea and smiled. Ky was the older of the two. He was taller of the couple also. His lengthy raven colored hair swayed in the wind behind him, showing off his pointed ears. His eyes were a perfect contrast to his hair, blending silver and orange to form the odd color in his orbs. His expression was always cold around mortals, for he was Justice and had to strike fear into those who went against his morality. But Kalea knew better. She knew his form of 'justice' was a joke to him and always had a smile painted on his face when he walked about the halls of the heavens. He even tried to court Kalea on several occasions. And she had to admit, he was on the the attractive side (picture Sesshomaru with black hair and orange/silver eyes, but with a more softened face). He was dressed in a kind of armor that resembled the demon exterminator's battle suit. A long silver coat finished off his look and a giant spear- like staff stood at his side. THAT was the origin of his power.
Kei looked no older than ten but acted with a maturity well beyond her years. Her peach colored hair ,with strands of black here and there, fell down to her ankles. But today, she had chosen to pin her hair up with a purple dahlia. Two strands of apricot and jet black hair fell to the sides of her face and mingled with her pure orange bangs. The strands were laced with a myterious type of vine and its flowers, probably a plant of the gods. Her eyes also held two colors like her brother - silver and gold. Her small body was adorned in a black dress no longer than that of her knees and was finished off with an orange sash wrapped around the bodice. The other gods would always make fun of her because her dress would blow up if the right gust of wind blew up underneath. Kagome would say it reminded her of the American actress Marylin Monroe. Unlike her brother Ky, Kei's power did not come from a weapon but her eyes. It was how she told herself the difference between liars and truth holders. Kei was the first one to speak.
"Why hello there healer. What brings you here this wonderful morning?"
"You know exactly why Kei! You're here to steal that jewel from me!"
"I would do no such thing, would I Ky?" Ky remained silent. Kei rolled her eyes.
"Believe it or not Kalea, we are not here for the jewel. You managed to screw things up - AGAIN and of course, we are here to clean it up." Kalea was bewildered.
"What are you talking about? What mess?" Ky stood up on the branch and looked down. An evil grin spread across his face and grabbed for his sister's hand.
"Why...just look down. The show is about to start.."
Inuyasha barely had time to think when he overheard the goddess he grew up with threaten his brother with that horrible secret he carried. His kiss with Kagome. Inuyasha had laid there, in pure anger, not knowing whether to confront Sesshomaru or Kagome about it. He could only walk at first, slowly gaining his energy back, and then running at his normal speed to catch up with the traitor and Kagome. He was lucky when he arrived - Sesshomaru was alone and waiting by the well.
"Draw your weapon bastard!" Sesshomaru was more than surprised when his half brother came to a halt in front of him. Inuyasha held out the Tetsusaiga, ready for action. Sesshomaru did not pull out his sword or any other weapon he held. Today he would not fight his brother. Today he just wanted things to get back to normal.
"I won't, Inuyasha."
"Coward!!" Inuyasha lunged at the youkai prince but Sesshomaru was quicker, as always. Inuyasha was a little dazed by the youkai's quickness but recovered after a few seconds. He charged at Sesshomaru once more, but was tripped by the demon lord's swift foot. Inuyasha fell to the ground face first, swallowing bits of grass. Tetsusaiga stumbled out of the hanyou's hand. Inuyasha went to grab for the mighty weapon until a large foot on his back made him sink back to the ground. Sesshomaru stood over, calm and cold at the same time.
"What are you so angry about now half breed?"
"You know exactly why i'm pissed off!!!" Sesshomaru quirked an inquiring eyebrow.
"Enlighten me."
"You kissed my Kagome! And now you'll die for it!!!" Inuyasha grabbed Sesshomaru's foot, taking him by surprise, and sent him flying through the air. In one quick leap, Inuyasha reclaimed Tetsusaiga and held it to Sesshomaru's throat. "Now you die, bastard."
"NO!" Two voices rang out through the forest, confusing the brothers for a moment. Inuyasha found the first voice as she climbed out of the Bone Eater's Well with her unusual medical supplies. Sesshomaru found the other one high up in a tree, her dark shadow outlined by the beaming sun.
Kagome dashed out of the well and over to Inuyasha, who was looming over the great youkai. His golden eyes were filled with tears of anger that stung at her heart. She didn't want him to find out about the miserable kiss like this. She wanted to be able to sit him down and talk to him like a mature person. 'Mature? Inuyasha? What was I thinking?', Kagome thought. Kagome slowly walked over to Inuyasha. She didn't make any eye contact with the youkai under Inuyasha's blade, not that it mattered for his eyes were glued on someone else.
"Stop this now Kei!" Kei's silver and amber eyes almost popped out at the remark.
"No way! This is too much fun to watch!" Kalea grabbed Kei's shoulder and shook as hard as she could.
"Dammit Kei! Please!" Kei shook her head. Kalea looked up at Ky with pleading eyes.
"I cannot stop my sister from doing what she pleases."
"They're going to kill each other!!" Kei crossed her pale arms in front of her.
"Well DUH! Come on Kalea!"
"You bitch!"
"Slut!"
"Skank!"
"Ugly!"
"Ok whoa! I am NOT ugly!" Ky sighed and descended down the tree. The two goddesses stopped the arguement for a moment, and then followed after him.
"He kissed you Kagome!" Inuyasha was still hovering over Sesshomaru with a look of death hanging in his eyes. Kagome did her best to keep back the tears.
"It didn't mean anything Inuyasha!"
"Yea, like I can believe you now!" Kagome's fists were clenched into tight balls.
"Alright, alright people. Make way for a god and goddess!" The group turned their heads to a young man and an even younger looking girl walking towards them, Kalea trailing from not far behind. The small girl spoke first.
"We can all solve this little predicament with a snap of my fingers. And yes, I can do that." Everybody gave her the same blank stare. "Oh for cryin' out loud!" Kei began to point at things and give orders. "Dog boy : heal! Chicken legs girl: sit! Kalea's obsession: go sit ov- eep!" A small object massaged Kei's rear end and took her by surprise. She slowly turned around to find a youthful monk staring up at her with a child on his shoulders and priestess not far behind him. Kei grew red with anger and embarrassment. Her large orbs turned into thin slits and she pointed at the priest; ready to give a command. "Monk : go jump off a cli-"
"Kei!" Kalea vaulted at Kei and shoved her index finger toward the ground. Kei rolled her eyes and watched as her commands took affect - Inuyasha sat down, as did Kagome. Kei flexed her petite fingers and sat crossed legged on the terrain, while her brother stood and kept a cold gaze over everybody.
"Alright kids. We're goin' to fix this okies? I'm obviously the goddess of truth...sooooooo...we're going to play a little game of truth or dare to fix all these problems. Hey, human play-doh and Buddah's pervert! You two are included!" Kikyo and Miroku obediently sat down with the rest of the group. Kalea remained standing while Sesshomaru perched himself on the rim of the well. Inuyasha's ears twitched.
"Truth or wha-huh?"
"Truth or dare. Ask Kagome. Her time plays this game constantly." Eyes were now focused on Kagome. Kei snapped at everyone.
"Hey!Hey!Hey! We're supposed to paying attention to moi! Ok. Let's get started." Kei gently picked one of the flowers from her hair and placed it in the middle of everybody. Kei began to chant and soon the teeny flower started to give off a snowy glow. Kei calmly closed her eyes and the posy rose above the ground. Kalea's eyes spiraled over as the temptation of leaving the scene became greater.
Inuyasha, Kagome, and the rest of the group looked on in amazement. Kei's orbs shot open and the flower floated over to Inuyasha. The pearly glow crawled over the earth and engulfed Kikyo, pulling her over to where Inuyasha sat. The world around them abruptly became dark and a small light circled Kei. A smirk covered her features.
"The truth comes out now..."
