Disclaimer: Same as chapter 1. I do not own Inu Yasha or any of the original characters but I would be in heaven if I did. So far I own Meiko Asano, and this story plot. I am planning on making up other characters and I will own them as well.
Chapter 4~
Sango opens her eyes to see Miroku staring back at her his face extremely close to hers. She slaps his face and he gets up. "What are you doing?" she asks.
Kagome looked wide eyed at what was before her, no, no it couldn't be she rubbed her eyes again and again, no, no it had to be a joke, it just had to be.
Inu Yasha was talking to Kaede.
"What do you mean you don't have it?" Inu Yasha barked at her.
"I'm sorry, we don't have your sword, but we will look out for it if someone comes by with it. I asked the villagers again and again and again, we done have it." Kaede answered calmly.
Shippo woke up on Kagome's sleeping bag all by himself, Where is everybody? Oh well then no one will know if I take some extra candy. Shippo gave an evil laugh.
Kagome blinked then rubbed her eyes. How? How? How? How am I still here? She looked around and sure enough instead of seeing her Shrine she saw the Feudal Era staring back at her. The well was known be selective sometimes but she always seemed to go to the other world, but? What if, no it couldn't be… Could the well have stopped working? Am I stuck in this world? INU YASHA! She decided that maybe she should try it again. So she stretched her back and jumped back in.
Wait, who was that, was that… Kagome? I knew my eyesight wasn't as good as it was last night, but if I didn't know any better I'd say that that person who just stepped back into the well was Kagome.
"What am I gonna do now?" Inu Yasha asked Kaede.
"I don't know," she said out loud. In her head, she was saying if he doesn't find his sword soon then let god have mercy on our souls.
Inu Yasha blinked then ran out, time was running out and he knew it.
"You fainted last night, you had a fever. You've been sleeping for awhile now, you didn't look so good when you left for the hot spring so I decided that I was gonna ask if you were ok once I got to the spring because I didn't wanna worry Shippo." Before you woke up you seemed to be enjoying a dream. May I ask you what you were dreaming about?"
Damn, then it was all a dream, Sango thought
"What happened?" Kagome asked to herself as she climbed out of the well and she was still in the Feudal Era. She climbed out and stomped back to the camp.
Inu Yasha decided to go back to the well… maybe it was there.
"Why so sad?" a voice asked. Kagome jumped as she heard the voice. She turned around to see a dog demon looking at her. But it wasn't her dog demon… close enough it was his brother Sesshoumaru. She gave a small laugh remembering his nickname.
"Hey fluffy" she said. A smile formed on his face.
"Did you and my little bro have a fight?" He said emphasizing on the word 'little'.
"What do you want Fluffy?" Kagome asked emphasizing on the word 'fluffy'.
"Maybe, look we gotta get back before Inu Yasha come to get us" Sango answered putting her hair back up as she avoided answering the monk's question.
"So, I take it you don't want me to know about your dream? Ok, well it's your choice, I was just curious." as he said this he could see Sango's blush growing the she turned around trying to hide it.
"I'm gonna go check up on Shippo", she said quickly getting up and going back to the camp.
"This" he said dipping his head down towards Kagome. Just then Inu Yasha…reached the well as he saw as girl about Kagome's height jump into the well.
She stayed over night here by herself? He asked himself. He thought for a moment then decided to go after her. Maybe he could explain himself.
Sango had reached their camp and saw Shippo sitting on her sleeping bag sucking on a lollipop with a girl about his age, chatting and laughing.
"Shippo, who's this?" Sango asked.
"She's my…she my…" Shippo started.
"…I'm his girlfriend" the girl finished for him.
"Girlfriend… our little Shippo?" she teased. The girl transformed into a kitsune and extended out her hand. "I'm Akiha, what's your name?"
"Well Akiha, I'm Sango" she said, watching as Miroku made his way back to the cam then gave a look of surprise at Akiha. He walked up to her and whispered in her ear, "Who is she?"
"Miroku, this is Akiha," she said pointing to Miroku and the then gesturing to the girl sitting by Shippo. "Akiha, this is Miroku". The girl stood up and offered her hand to Miroku, he shook it gladly then said that although he was pleased to meet her he still didn't know what she was doing here.
"Akiha, is Shippo's girlfriend" Sango answered.
"Our little Shippo?" Miroku teased as Shippo turned bright red and hung his head to hide his blush. The girl let out a light laugh and said that her sister and friends were a ways off. "Kiyomi is her name. She's a half- dog demon, she's not my real sister, but she takes care of me ever since my parents died, I'm an only child." Akiha finished sadly her head down.
"Where is Akiha?" Kiyomi asked frantically as she ran around she couldn't see or hear her 'sister'.
"She went off with her new boyfriend," a human girl answered. "They went off in that direction", she pointed in a direction that they had gone. "She told me to tell you and I guess I forgot, sorry.
"Mihoko, what were you thinking!" she yelled at the girl, stomping off in the direction.
I climbed up the well and saw the familiar surroundings of the Higurashi's Shrine. I started walking quickly into her house. I had left the back open so that I could get back in.
After talking with the girl for awhile Sango and Miroku figured out that Akiha knew a lot more about the dating world then Shippo. And from what she had said they hadn't even kissed.
Bored I went into her house and turned on the radio. "All the things she said" by T.A.T.U. was playing.
Inu Yasha jumped into the well and saw the familiar blue light. As soon as he hit the ground, he climbed out expecting to surprise Kagome and beg he to forgive him. Maybe she could help him find his sword. He could defiantly smell a human inside the house. He hoped it was her and not her mom, or grandpa. He could hear some type of noise coming from the house.
"All the things she said, all the things she said, running through head, running through me head, running through me head," I sang as the radio continued playing the song.
Mihoko was the first to spot the young kitsune with the 2 humans and her new boyfriend. They were laughing and were from what she had heard soon to be on their way to the hot spring.
Inu Yasha stopped. He smelt something else too; he smelt a faint sent of youkai, maybe a weak one. Or maybe it was a hanyou.
I lowed down the radio, Uh oh, did I just hear something, what if Kagome or one of her friends is back? I turned off the radio and the light and ran upstairs. Inu Yasha slowly opened the door just like Kagome had taught him. He could smell an unfamiliar scent, defiantly not someone in her family he decided.
"Akiha, hey" her sister greeted her running towards her.
"Hey, sis" Akiha cried as she ran into her sis's arms.
Inu Yasha sniffed around, and found the strangers scent leading upstairs.
He climbed silently as the smell got stronger. He was now right in front of Kagome's room. She had once told him not to come in her room without her permission but this had to be an exception. He started turning the handle of the door slowly.
"Hey, I'm Sango", the demon hunter extended out her hand to Kiyomi then pointing to the monk and her kitsune friend, "And this is Miroku and Shippo".
"Hey, well as you may or may not know I'm-"
"Oh man I forgot!" Sango interrupted her.
Well that's rude Mihoko and Kiyomi thought at the same time.
" I don't mean that I didn't want to meet you, it's just that.... Time is running out. Our friend lost something and if he doesn't get it back really soon we could all be in danger…. From him, but he doesn't want to hurt us, but he could if he doesn't get it back soon."
The two girls look at her with an apologetic look on their faces.
"Sorry" they answered in unison.
Inu Yasha opened the door and was surprised to see a girl hiding in the corner of her room. He didn't actually see her he had smelt her. He quietly walked towards her.
"Hey", Sango got an idea. "Have you guys seen anyone, particularly a demon, walking around with a sword have you?"
"Is that what he lost?" Akiha asked
"Yeah, his sword, it' called the Tetsusaiga, have you heard of it?"
"I've heard of it before. This guy close to my village, he's a youkai who had heard about the Tetsusaiga and it's powers, so he decided that he wanted it. But after hunting for it for awhile he decided it would be better if he had help, but no one wanted to help him with his selfish ways, so he decided if he got married he would tell his wife something to tell their kids. He then decided that he wanted the Jewel, so that he could be more powerful. But then a priestess named Kikyo was guarding it and she was supposed to be very powerful, many had fallen before her. So he went on a little quest to find out if others would help him. He tried to bribe them when people refused, so then he grew really desperate and make sure that his wife would make sure that her kids would defiantly go after it. So he decided that he was gonna tell his wife that a demon had stolen the Tetsusaiga form him while he was saving a little girl from falling and he had tried to chase after the demon but he was already gone. He would tell her that the sword had been in his bloodline for years, and very special to him, it had old memories and it was part of a tradition that his family had had. He had a different story for the shards, he had to exchange the shards for the people he loved lives, so reluctantly at gun point the handed it over then tried to get it back, but he could get it and they had killed his mother too. Leaving him for dead after shooting him with youkai weapons. He would tell her that the demons wanted to use it for evil things because they were power hungry." Akiha said taking a big breath after finishing the story without taking a single breath. "But that's all I heard".
"Give me my sword!" Inu Yasha barked as he lunged at the girl but she easily avoided the attack.
"What are you talking about? This is my dad's sword that was stolen from him and now I have taken it back!" the girl yelled trying to tackle Inu Yasha.
"A Hanyou came along and took it while my dad was saving a little girl from falling." Inu Yasha wondered why the sword wasn't hurting her because she wasn't a hanyou…. Or was she??? He smelled a familiar scent on her and realized what it was.
"You're that demon that attacked us… but how could that be unless… You're a hanyou!" Inu Yasha shouted.
"Wow, so now you know my secret, but that still doesn't…maybe you're the hanyou he was talking about… the one that stole his sword!" she accused him.
"Bitch! Listen to me!" he said grabbing her arms with one of his and reaching for the sword with the other. "This sword is mine! My dad before he died had one of his fangs made into a sword called the Tetsusaiga or as my brother Sesshoumaru calls it 'the fang'. It only transforms when protecting a human. He put it in his tomb and put that tomb in my left eye when he died so that my older brother Sesshoumaru couldn't find it. Once my dad died and my mom he took over the castle and kicked me out. I met a miko named Kikyo and we fell in love. We were about to get married until Naraku tricked us into believing the other had betrayed them. So we attacked each other and she bounded me to a tree. She later died and asked that the Jewel be buried with her so that no demons may come after it. 50 years later a girl fell into a well into the past 500 years. She found me and ended up getting me unbounded and I ended up saving her from lady centipede. That girl's name was Kagome. At first I thought she was Kikyo but now I know she's not. Someone went to Kikyo's grave and had her resurrected or something like that and now she romes the earth trying to kill me because that is the only way her spirit can finally rest forever. So me and Kagome went on a search to find all the shards to the jewel since the jewel had been shattered in battle. The jewel used to be inside of Kagome. We met up with a Monk named Miroku who was looking for Naraku to kill him to end a curse he had been given that had passed down from generation to generation since his grandfather. Naraku had a large piece of the jewel so we knew we'd have to face him one day so he went with us. We met a kitsune named Shippo and I don't remember why he went with us but he's an orphan and he has no family. Later we met up with a taijiya named Sango who was tricked by Naraku into thinking that killing us would make her get her brother back. See, Naraku took her brother under his control and used him to help kill everyone in her village of demon slayers. But eventually she learned the truth, and that is our story, NOW GIVE ME BACK MY FUCKING SWORD, BITCH!" He said yelling at her, she better believe him after making him go through that long-ass explanation of why that sword was his. "Now you can ask any one of them and they'll tell you the exact same thing! Now, I need my fucking sword before my demon blood takes over!" he said staring off calm but almost ended up throwing her across the room. Damn, this bitch is getting on my nerves.
She thought about it for a minute. His story was way more detailed then her father's had been, and he had even told her what it was made from, and people she could ask about it. The only person she could ask abut it was from her mom. She began to wonder why her dad would lie. Hmm maybe I should give him the sword.
"What are you doing? What do you want?" Kagome repeated the question.
"I want you to come with me, live with me, in my castle. Come on what can the mutt give you that I cant? I can even give more" Kagome swore she heard a sort of winning tone in his voice as she said this but she said nothing. She was about to turn and walk away but then a short flash back of last night played into her mind. **********************************************************************************************************************************Flashback*****************************************
********************************************************************************************
"Inu Yasha? Are you ok?" a quiet voice asked. He turned at the sound of anther person, but he didn't need to he had smelled them coming a long time ago.
"Kagome?" he asked as she nodded and sat beside him.
"What's wrong"?
"Cant you see?…………. I…. I… I" Inu Yasha started. Sango took Shippo and Miroku away so that Inu Yasha could tell Kagome in private what had happened.
"I … I lost the Tetsusaiga" he finished glad for the privacy.
"Lost it…are you sure?" Kagome asked
"Of course I'm sure otherwise I would have it!" he barked at her.
"I was just suggesting that maybe someone took it."
"And who would take it? Well who do you think would take it? Are you ...no…are you saying that one of us took it?" Inu Yasha was getting really worried if he couldn't trust them who could he trust?
"I don't think so, I just don't think you lost it, I'm almost sure someone took it"
Inu Yasha then did something he thought he would never do. He turned on Kagome. "How do you know someone took it, did you take it? Is that why you think they didn't do it because you did!" he said raising his voice with every word.
"What? No! Inu Yasha I didn't do it!" Kagome screamed. "How? How could you think I could do such a thing!" she screamed tears running down her cheeks as she turned and ran towards the camp, her hair flying everywhere as she went.
**************************************************************************************************************End******************Flashback**********************************************************************************************************************************
Maybe I overreacted- she thought
No a voice argued back you Underrated! Kagome shook the voice out of her head and put on a smile. She sighed before saying, "Okay, but only for a little while."
"Should we wait here, or should we go get her?" Sango asked.
Mihoko voiced her opinion, "I may not know this Kagome girl but if your friend is in as much trouble as you told us and you think she can help you guys find the sword then I vote we go get her and tell her just how serious this situation really is."
