Sensei is happily locked in a closet. *Banging and muffled yells echo from hallway.* I'll let him out . . one day.
So anyways, you can ignore any recent bad reviews because I told my friends, (against my better judgment) that I wrote a story and they like to make fun of me. *murderous look.*
You know who you are.
Anyways, thanks Jesscheaux for offering to e-mail me her story, (which I'm in, so go read it!) but my computer was broken, so I couldn't read it. But I now I can! And I did! And it was so funny!!
But thank you everyone who was understanding and didn't flame me, *cries*. I feel so loved!
Except for you people.
You know who you are.

Bastard.
Anyways, on to the next chapter!
Chapter . .Um . . I think it's ten or eleven ^-^;
"What the hell kind of Harvest God is that?!" Inuyasha demanded. Indeed, harvest would imply plants, grain, wheat, something remotely related to harvest, but the thing in front of them was nothing but a big rock.
"I was bored with rock monsters with Genbu." Kurama said as the thing roared. "But this, if possible, seems stupider." It was huge, sand colored boulders linked together by some unknown force. It roared again and slammed its huge fist into the ground, shockwaves shooting up a wave of rocks toward the demons.
Jumping aside, they easily dodged, Inuyasha drawing Tetsusiaga. "Let me take care of this one." He charged the monster with a cry, but suddenly it disappeared.
"What?!" It appeared behind him, slamming down his linked fists toward the dog demons back. Inuyasha swivelled in the air to try and face it, but instead the blow connected with his side, sending the demon plowing into the dirt. As soon as he slowed to a stop, Inuyasha jumped to his feet and sprinted, charging the beast once again.
"His strategy is horrendous." Inuyasha brought his sword around once again, slicing the thing in half. Blood sprayed everywhere, the rocks falling to the ground. A huge lizard looking man, or at least duel pieces of him, slid to the ground, dead. Inuyasha landed, looking at the bloody blade in surprise.
"Seems to work." Kurama smirked, the two demons coming closer, examining the body. "It covered itself in boulders for protection." Botan floated down from the safety of the sky with Shippo in her arms, jumping off the oar and placing the little fox on the ground.
"Inuyasha, are you injured?" She asked.
"I'll live." Hiei was busy surveying the area, his jagan glowing as it searched for other enemies.
"How are we going to get out of here?" Shippo asked, looking around at the huge rock walls that surrounded them.
"Oh, it won't be that hard." Botan smiled as she jumped on her oar once again. Kurama gently picked up the little fox and placed him on his shoulder. Kicking off, he quickly followed the others as they swiftly scaled the canyon wall by jumping from one jagged outcropping to the next until they were on level ground.
"Where are we now?" Botan wondered aloud, looking around expectantly, for either people or a town. But neither was in sight.
"We should be close to that town, since we killed their 'harvest god'."
"We had to travel for some time to get here, so maybe not." Kurama muttered as he eyed the alien surroundings warily.
"So it's safe to say we're in the middle of nowhere." Inuyasha grumbled, slinging his sword over his shoulder. "At least we don't have any humans to slow us down."
"We still have bubble head." Hiei said, glaring at Botan with all three eyes, fingering his katana. She swallowed hard and forced a smile, backing up a step.
"No need for violence," she giggled nervously. "Before I didn't want to leave the girls behind, but I'll be just fine on my oar, thanks." Hopping onto her oar, she hovered a few feet off the ground.
"Well now that's settled." Kurama said, "Might as well get going."
***
Yusuke looked around, it was getting dark, must be around seven or eight in normal time. Owls hooted and crickets chirped as they trampled not-so-gracefully in the dense forest. *That's all this place is made of.* Yusuke thought, annoyance running thick as he pushed a branch out of his face. *Trees, trees, trees!*
In response, a branch whipped around and smacked him in the face.
"Arg, stupid tree!"
"Yusuke, A tree is an inanimate object, it can't be stupid."
"Yeah, well, who asked you?" The monk smirked as he pushed aside a branch with his staff, revealing even denser forest. Thunder cracked overhead and it began to rain, heavily.
"Oh man, this sucks!" Yusuke yelled, Kuwabara nodding in glum agreement. "You said it."
Finally, after they had cleared some of the dense forest, they heard a scream echoing through the still blackness of the night. The group took off towards the shriek, bursting through the line of trees to see a village.
"Oh my God." Kagome murmured. Fires dotted the entire compound, cries rising from the area.
"Let's go!" Sango yelled, pulling her boomerang off her back as they sprinted for the place. They ran through the front gates, as a wooden wall surrounded the town. They gasped in shock of what they saw.
The ground was littered with human bodies, most dismembered. Blood stained the ground a permanent scarlet, various buildings in shackles or aflame.
A huge bird stood in the center of the town, ripping out the stomach of a dying man. It pulled out his intestines and flung them up into the air, catching the pink mass and gobbling it up greedily. It's large red eyes turned to the new group and screeched at them angrily, opening its wings and flapping into the air.
Flames leapt from its feathers, setting even more debris ablaze. It hovered in the air and shrieked, blasting an explosion of fire in their direction. They ran aside as the flames engulfed their entrance, and exit.
"Holy shit, that things made of fire!" Yusuke gasped. The bird cried out and swooped down, huge talons plowing in the dirt where Miroku and Sango had been moments before. The fire was doubling quickly, fueled be plenty of oxygen and human corpses, the acrid smell of human flesh filling the air.
"Sorry, but we're in a hurry!" Sango yelled and the huge boomerang, sending it cutting through the air.
The two bloody chunks that had once been the demon fell to the ground with a disgusting splat.
"Ew." The exterminator caught the boomerang, then dropped it, stamping out the flaming weapon.
"Uh, problem." Yusuke yelled as he looked around. The entire area was engulfed in flames, no openings to be seen. Buildings collapsed as they were submerged in the inferno, the blaze eating up everything in its path. Flames were close, licking their feet and legs greedily, waiting for them to make a wrong move so it could claim them.
Kuwabara pulled a sleeve over his face, struggling for breath. It was getting much more difficult to breathe, black smoke thick in the air, making seeing next to impossible. Sango coughed and gasped as the group fumbled for an exit, feeling her knees beginning to give way under the intense heat.
"There's no way out." Miroku murmured weakly. His skin hurt, every inch of it was turning bright pink and beginning to peel lightly.
"I'm not dying in some fricken barbeque!" Yusuke yelled, slamming his shoulder into one of the walls to try and get it to give way. Even though it was weakened by the fire, it seemed to hold. He yelled in anger and kicked it.
"Screw this!" He pulled his finger forward. "Spirit Gun!" The bright blue energy tore through the wall, putting out many flames with its immense force.
*Why didn't I think of that before?!* They ran out of the fiery town, gasping in relief as it began to collapse.
"Where's Sango?!" Kagome yelled hysterically, searching for the girl.
"She's still in there!" Miroku cried and ran to get her, but Kuwabara beat him to it. He dove into the village, searching for the girl.
Kuwabara groped blindly for Sango, calling her name desperately. It was impossible to see, the smoke was so thick, almost no oxygen left in the entire area. The surroundings began to spin as Kuwabara became dizzy from oxygen loss, gasping as he fell to his knees.
A gentle moan rang out near him and he crawled to it, finally finding Sango's limp form. He picked her up just in time to see their exit collapse.
"Kuwabara!" Yusuke screamed as most of the wall collapsed, Miroku grabbing his staff.
"I'm going in after them!"
"No, we can't risk losing you too!" Kagome wailed but Miroku ignored her, running towards the blazing remains of a town. He stopped when he saw to figures emerge, one carrying the other.
Kuwabara nearly dropped Sango as Miroku took her and he fell to the ground, the face of his sister appearing in his mind.
*Your shirts on fire you idiot!"imaginary Shizuru screamed, *stop drop and roll! Roll you BAKA!*
*My shirts on fire?!* He rolled like a maniac until Yusuke nearly had to smack him to make his stop.
"You aren't on fire, Kuwabara, stop rolling around!" he stopped and sat up angrily. "Shut up Urameshi!"
"How's Sango?" Kagome demanded from Miroku, who was patting out a small fire on her shoulder.
"She's got some bad burns, but she'll be alright."
"Let's get out of here." Yusuke said, "This fire's gonna spread and I want to be far away when it does."
Later that night, when they were far away from the village, Sango sat away from the others, struggling to apply herbs and bandage her burns, as her hands were badly burnt and didn't function well.
Miroku came up, bandages in his hand. He sat down across from her. "Do you need some help.
She eyed his suspiciously, judging the situation. "No ulterior motives?"
He raised a hand, smiling sincerely. "No ulterior motives." She sighed and nodded. He reached forward and took her hand in his, gently smoothing the herbs over her burned skin, and began to wrap them with the utmost care.
Sango watched him, surprised at how caring he was being, but was still uncertain. He moved over to her other hand, doing the same, being just as gentle.
"Now I noticed you had a few on your chest, so if you would take of your shirt . ."
*BAM!* She punched the monk in the head.
"Ow! What was that for?!"
"What kind of monk are you?! THAT is an ulterior motive you-"
"My intentions were purely innocent and for your benefit!"
"My benefit?! Get back here!"
***
Hiei, Inuyasha, and Kurama swiftly sprinted through field upon field, making incredible time. Shippo had to cling to Kurama's neck for dear life as the fox sprang about, the demons going at least four times faster than normal humans. Kilala ran in great bounds next to them, panting in joy at the feeling of the wind rushing through her fur. Botan flew above them all, letting out a cry of delight as she wove through the puffy clouds.
Like it was some sort of unannounced race, Inuyasha pulled ahead, smirking as he bounded from the top of the hill to the base, feet sinking into the soft dirt as he kicked off. Hiei rushed ahead of him, but Kurama jumped from one hilltop to the next, leaving them all in his dust.
The sheer animalistic fun of the race overtook them all, a ghost of a smile on all of their faces. Inuyasha raced to the front with a burst of speed, but Hiei appeared next to him, smirking.
"Don't trip." Faster than the dog demon could see, Hiei whipped out his katana and jabbed Inuyasha in the ankle with the hilt.
"Ah!" He stumbled and fell, eating dirt as the Jaganshi raced ahead to take the lead.
"YOU JERK!" Inuyasha yelled, then faltered, *Great, now I'm talking like Kagome.*
"You guys!" Botan called down, "Look!" She landed a few hills ahead of them, the rest quickly catching up.
She was pointing excitedly into the distance, clutching her oar happily. They all looked in the direction of her finger, their eyes widening. It was the mountain, maybe only a day away!
Hiei smirked as he studied the hazy mountains. *So those villagers actually assisted us.* He thought it strange they had not been able to see them before, but it had been foggy most of the day. Shrugging, he looked back at the fields, making sure nothing was trying to sneak up on them.
Shippo noticed that it was getting dark and yawned, Kurama pulling Shippo off his shoulder and holding him in his arms as the little kit began to fall asleep.
Inuyasha's stomach growled noisily and he looked around. "I'm hungry."
"Then why don't you get off your ass and got find something to eat." Hiei sneered, receiving a glare from the dog demon.
"But Kagome has all the food." Shippo whined, curling up into a ball in the elder fox's arms.
"Not true!" Botan chirped, pulling out a bag. "I've got instant ramen and nutrigrain bars . ."
"Botan, where did you get that bag?" Kurama interrupted, puzzled. She looked at it and frowned.
"I have no idea."
***
"I wonder if Inuyasha's okay." Kagome muttered, looking up at the black sky speckled with luminous stars. Stars were always brighter in this time, as there were no artificial lights to illuminate the sky. It made nights seem more peaceful, but also, more . . lonely . . .
*What am I thinking?!* Kagome yelled to herself, It's not like he's my boyfriend or anything. EW! Why would I want him to be my boyfriend?!*
"You talk about him like he's fragile or something." Yusuke said, coming over and sitting next to her in her secluded area away from the fire. "I'm sure he's fine. Why do you worry so much?"
When she didn't answer, he continued. "Like Keiko. I'm not worried about her." He lied, "See, if that Ketsueki guy tried to hurt her, she'd pop him a good one. I should know." Kagome laughed as Yusuke rubbed his cheek in recollection of the many painful memories.
"I don't know, it's just . ."
"Chill out." He smiled, getting to his feet. "Come on, the others are probably wondering where we are."
Kagome got to her feet, casting one last glance at the starry sky before heading back to the warmth of the fire.
Woo! Kinda big chapter, eight whole pages! Yay! The next should be out soon.
