This is the 2nd part continuing from where I left off in the last chapter.
I will also continue the song from the last verse of it I wrote in the
first chap.
Disclaimer: If I owned Inuyasha not only would I be rich and famous but I
would also have Kikiyo and Naraku get together and have Inuyasha choose
Kagome instead.
Ok here is the rest of the story.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kagome woke up around noon the next day; she wasn't that all much tired
anymore.
She then remembered what she told herself to do yesterday after she tried
the well.
Kagome got up; got dressed; ate breakfast; ran outside; ran into the well
house; jumped into the well; and didn't go anywhere.
'Why isn't the well working?' she asked herself.
~~~In Feudal Japan~~~
Inuyasha, Shippo, Miroku, and Sango were all at Kaede's hut.
They had told the old miko about what happened to the well.
Kaede was thinking while the others watched her, waiting for an
explanation.
Inuyasha started becoming impatient and said, "Well old hag, what happened
to the well?"
He said it in a harsh and impatient voice.
"Ye must learn to be patient Inuyasha, I do not know what happened to the
well or why it is doing this."
Inuyasha crossed his arms over his chest in one of his famous poses and
responded with a "feh".
All the occupants in the room sighed with annoyance.
"However Inuyasha.I have found a way to help ye unseal the well-" Kaede
didn't get to finish what she was saying before Inuyasha interrupted by
asking,
"How?"
"Let me finish speaking Inuyasha and I shall tell ye." Kaede calmly said.
Inuyasha sat back down in his spot on the floor, "Continue." He simply
said.
Kaede turned towards the others again and said,
"There is a way to unseal the well.but there is a downfall to this spell."
"What is it?" Sango asked curiously.
Kaede sighed and said sadly, "It will take exactly 5 years to do."
"WHAT!!!!!!!!!" Inuyasha screamed standing up very angry.
"YOU MEAN I HAVE TO WAIT THAT LONG FOR HER!!!!" Inuyasha yelled with steam
literally coming out of his ears.
Kaede just simply nodded and then asked,
"Why have ye become so interested if Kagome-san ever came back?"
Inuyasha turned another shade of red and then turned quickly so he was
facing the wall.
Miroku, Sango, and Shippo gave him knowing looks that seemed to say 'we-
know-what-your-trying-to-hide-from-us-and-it-isn't-working'.
"I never said I was interested if Kagome ever came back, I could care less
if she never did come back. I'm just saying that because Naraku might get
more jewel shards then us in that amount of time."
Inuyasha said, the blush disappearing.
Sango turned back to Kaede, "So how exactly dose this spell work?" she
asked.
Kaede took a scroll off one of the shelves near her and opened it up; she
began to read it.
"This spell is known as the "spell of unsealing" according to this scroll
it says that to make it work one must find a special flower that grows in a
special place.
Once ye has found this flower ye must take its petals and grind them up,
after that add some herbs of different kinds and grind those up as well.
Last sprinkle the mixture onto the area you wish to unseal and wait 6 years
for it to take effect." Kaede finished reading the scroll and put it back
on the shelf.
"What is this flower the spell speaks of?" asked Miroku who had been quite
the whole time.
Kaede looked at all of them to make sure they were listening, Inuyasha was
pretending to have no interest what so ever but he was listening with his
ears.
"The flower is called a 'Hiptana' (pronounced: "hip-ta-na")" Kaede said.
"Where do we find it?" Shippo asked now with his own curiosity.
Kaede looked down at his small form and said,
"It is in a place that is very hard to find; it is said to be guarded by a
mystical creature of some sort."
"Is it a demon?" Inuyasha interrupted again.
"No Inuyasha tis not a demon nor a human, it is unknown as to what it is."
Kaede said.
Inuyasha snorted and said, "Then we'll go see what it is then."
Sango and Miroku snapped to attention at what he just said,
"Inuyasha! It would take days to find the place it might even take years
and by the time we find the flower it would be to late!" Sango said.
Inuyasha did a smirk that would make Sonic mad for copying him,
"You forgot I'm part demon, I could smell the place probably miles away
from us." Inuyasha said in a mocking tone.
"Do not get ye over-confident, that special place like I said is guarded
that includes the smells of the flowers in it." Kaede said.
Inuyasha did an anime fall then got back up,
"SO HOW ARE WE SUPPOSE TO FIND IT IF I CAN'T EVEN SMELL IT!!" Inuyasha
yelled followed by an angry growl.
Shippo was practically almost blown off of Sango's shoulder at the force of
Inuyasha's voice.
"Calm down Inuyasha, there is another way to find it." Kaede said to the
still angry half-demon.
"What is the other way Kaede-baba?" Miroku asked while his hand was
wondering toward Sango again.
"Come closer and I shall tell ye." Kaede said motioning the young travelers
to come closer to her.
~~~Kagome's time~~~
Kagome climbed out of the well for the 7th time that day, she still never
went through.
'I wonder if the well sealed itself? Oh well I don't really care, Inuyasha
is probably so happy I'm gone that he's doing a happy dance in a tree.'
She laughed at her own joke.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
'But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)'
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Kagome went back into her home and got some dinner.
She fed Buyo (is that how it's spelled?).
Then she went upstairs to her bedroom and flopped down on her bed.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
'There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more then any laws allow
Baby baby'
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Kagome took a 15-minute quick nap and then got ready for bed.
Around 8:45p.m she fell asleep still hoping that the well would soon work.
~~~Inuyasha's time~~~
"So what do we have to do?" Miroku asked Kaede as he, Inuyasha, Sango, and
Shippo scooted closer to her to hear what they had to do to find the
special place.
Kaede cleared her throat and began to speak,
"It said by legend that the place is called the "Fletia Nako" (A/N: The
language that that name comes from is known as the idiot language which I
speak very well of. Translation is at the end of the story.)."
Kaede began.
"From what I have heard, long ago Fletia Nako was a peaceful place. Animals
thrived and lived in the patches of brightly colored flowers.
Then one day a small rabbit demon appeared in the garden, it posed no
threat at all to the flowers but soon after its arrival more powerful
demons came and tried to take all the flowers.
The animals managed to fight the demons off but in the end all but one
animal was left standing."
Kaede looked at her audience and mentally smiled at their attention; she
continued,
"That one last animal, I hear, looks like a hybrid of a cat, fox, and a
wolf.
When the battle was over it didn't want something like the battle to happen
again, so the last animal took the duty of guarding that place with its
life.
The way it ensured the flowers would be safe was to cover the entire area
around the garden. It's kind of like a safeguard because it blocks the
smell of the flowers from any demon noses that would happen to be near.
The only way to find the garden would be to play a certain tune on a hand-
made wooden flute.
I just happen to have that flute with me, but we need someone here to play
it."
Kaede said as she looked again at her audience and then looked at Sango,
"Sango-san would you like to play it? The tune is quite easy to play and
it's not at all long."
Sango pointed to herself and then asked, "Me? Why me Kaede-baba?"
"Because this particular flute can only be played by a young girl." Kaede
said slowly getting up and rummaging through some old trunks.
"Ah here it is." Kaede said after a while, turning around to show the shard
hunters the flute.
The music instrument itself wasn't at all really bad; it just looked old
and needed a good polish.
Inuyasha got up from where he sat and walked toward the door; he turned to
his companions and said,
"I'm going to go think for a few minutes, I'll be back later." Inuyasha
then ran out the door and he went to the well.
He rushed out to the clearing with the well half expecting Kagome to be
standing right by the well.
But just as he thought she was not there, and wouldn't be for God knows how
long.
He plopped down next to the well looking down into it.
"Kagome." he said quietly to himself praying to the Gods that she would
magically appear at the bottom.
But again it didn't happen.
"Why did you have to leave?" Inuyasha asked quietly.
'Well that's obvious you idiot, you are the reason she high-tailed it back
to her time. And Lord knows why the well all of a sudden sealed.'
A voice in his head said.
(A/N: If anyone read my other story 'Not Belonging 2' this part will be
similar to the "war" Skim was having in his head.)
'Yeah, why did you have to be a jackass instead of a jerk?' another voice
asked.
'How the hell should I know? I didn't say it his mouth did!' the other
voice said.
'His mouth doesn't have a conscience, his brain does. The sad part is his
brain is the size of a peanut.' The second voice said.
Inuyasha shook his head furiously to get the voices out of his head.
The voices shut their traps after a while and Inuyasha still stared down
into the well.
He did a sad sigh then got up and went over to a nearby tree.
He jumped onto one of the high branches and started to think about a
different subject.
(A/N: I know Inuyasha doesn't think a lot and I know cause I love and watch
the show so I know how he acts but for the sake of this story just go along
with him thinking.)
'That story Kaede was telling us.it sounded familiar. I just can't put my
finger on it but I know I've heard that story somewhere before.'
Inuyasha thought for a minute about that.
'Hmm where have I heard it before?' Suddenly something snapped in his head.
'Oh my God that was a story my mom told me when I was little! Hmm I think I
remember her saying something about a scratch mark with a yellow glow on a
fallen log or something. Hmm.'
He thought a bit more.
'Holy mother of Hell I think I know where the place is!' Inuyasha screamed
in his head before thinking it over.
'Yes I definitely know where the Fletia Nako is. I better go tell the
others.' With that he jumped out of the tree and ran all the way back to
Kaede's hut.
Back at Kaede's hut Sango had learned how to play the mystical tune in a
matter of 5 minutes.
Miroku was just about to grope Sango when Inuyasha busted right through the
door, panting for breath.
"Guys I. know where. the Fletia. Nako. is!" Inuyasha said between pants for
breathes.
"You do!" All the current people in the hut said at once, even Kilala said,
"mew".
"Yeah if you guys want to unseal the well you better come on." Inuyasha
said as he began to breathe normally now.
"How dose ye know where it is?" Kaede asked raising an eyebrow.
"None of your business I just do." The half-demon said stubbornly.
"Okay we can go now." Sango said as she placed her large boomerang on her
back.
"Can I come too?" Shippo asked from on top of Inuyasha's head.
"No brat, you can't come cause it might-you just can't come alright. Stay
here with Kaede and do something useful." Inuyasha said walking out the
door with Miroku, Sango, and Kilala following.
~~~3 hours later~~~
"It's over here guys! I found the path!" Inuyasha yelled over to his two
friends as they ran over to where he was.
They were on a dirt path, which strangely had a lot of flowers on the sides
of it.
However on the right side of the path was a fallen tree that had claw marks
that glowed a light shade of yellow.
Inuyasha had told them earlier that the tree was a clue to the garden's
whereabouts.
"I think my mom said something about there being a trail of fallen trees
just like this." Inuyasha said examining the marks on the fallen tree.
"I found another one!" Miroku called out a few feet away from his other two
traveling partners.
Inuyasha jumped from where he was all the way to where Miroku was in one
leap while Sango and Kilala looked in another place near where Miroku found
the other fallen tree.
Inuyasha examined the tree Miroku had found; sure enough it had the same
three yellow scratch marks.
"Good job Miroku, you actually found something today." Inuyasha said.
(He meant the remark as a joke, sorry if that's a little OOC for him.)
"I found another one!" Sango yelled over to them.
They ran to where she was and looked at the tree she found, same marks as
the other two trees.
This went on for a few more hours till.
"Ouch!" Inuyasha yelped as he hit something really hard that was invisible.
Sango went up to where he was when he hit the thing and place he hands out
in front of her.
Sure enough there was something solid blocking their way.
"I think we found the barrier that keeps demons and people out.
"Well that thing must be pretty powerful to knock me on my head and cause a
splitting headache."
Inuyasha said while rubbing his head.
"Kaede told us that the way to get in is to play that short song on the
flute." Miroku said wisely.
"Yeah but she never told us when to play it or what it will do." Sango said
looking at the wooden flute in her hands.
"Well just give it a try." Inuyasha said becoming impatient.
"The more we wait to get the damn flower, the longer it will take for the
well to unseal."
Inuyasha said gruffly.
'Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the tree this morning.' Sango
thought.
"Ok I'll play it but I don't know what it will do."
With that Sango began to play the soothing melody that Kaede taught her.
(A/N: If anyone has 'Pokemon The Movie 2000' the melody Sango is playing is
the one from the movie known as "Lugia's Song".)
After Sango finished playing the melody Inuyasha took a step forward and
didn't hit anything.
"Hey we can go through now." Inuyasha said happily.
All three ran past the barrier before they were stopped by a shadowed
figure.
"Stop right where you are. I don't know how you got past my shield but you
can not go any farther."
The voice of the figure said.
Inuyasha pulled out Tetseiga and said, "Unless you want to be diced you
better let us pass."
Sango stepped forward and said,
"Forgive him he's always like that. We are not here to harm any of the
flowers or you; we are just looking for a special flower that we hear can
unseal something that is sealed up."
"I can not allow you in, I'm truly sorry. But you can't come in here no
matter how bad you need that flower."
The voice said again.
Inuyasha did an angry growl from deep in his throat and raised Tetseiga,
"If you don't let us in now I swear I'll kill you if I have to." Inuyasha
said angrily.
"I'm sorry but you are a demon, and I can not allow demon's into this
garden." The voice said.
"Please, we desperately need that flower. Our friend is trapped on the
other side of the Bone-Eaters Well and we need that flower to unseal the
well."
Sango pleaded.
"He's only half-demon and won't hurt anybody unless he needs to. And he's
just as desperate as us to get the flower."
Miroku said in the same pleading tone as Sango.
The shadowed figure looked at each one of them closely then put its eyes on
the Tetseiga,
"Alright you may enter but then you must leave after you find the flower
you are looking for.
And he." the figure said pointing toward Inuyasha,
"He can only come in if he puts his sword back in its scabbard."
Inuyasha put the Tetseiga back and followed Miroku and Sango into the
garden.
"Thank you so much." Sango said to the shadowed figure.
The figure kept silent but kept a close eye on each of them.
The minute Inuyasha stepped into the garden his sensitive nose was
literally attacked by different enchanting smells.
"God that's a lot of smells and a lot of flowers." He said as he looked at
the thousands upon thousands of brightly colored flowers everywhere he
looked.
"How will we ever find the flower with all these other flowers?" Sango
asked staring in awe at all the flowers in the garden.
"Perhaps the guardian of this place will tell us." Miroku said.
"You go ask since it appears to not want to talk to me." Inuyasha said
already looking around for the flower.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
A/N: I don't want to stop it there but I must cause it's starting to get
to long.
It would probably take me more then 5 months to finish the story if I went
on with this chapter.
Ok like I said I would translate the name "Fletia Nako".
It is pronounced: "flee-tee-a nah-ko" it means "Garden of Peace" in the
idiot language.
Ok so there is the translation now I will go work on the third part of
this.
Please R&R.
~Kalana The Three-Tailed Fox~
I will also continue the song from the last verse of it I wrote in the
first chap.
Disclaimer: If I owned Inuyasha not only would I be rich and famous but I
would also have Kikiyo and Naraku get together and have Inuyasha choose
Kagome instead.
Ok here is the rest of the story.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kagome woke up around noon the next day; she wasn't that all much tired
anymore.
She then remembered what she told herself to do yesterday after she tried
the well.
Kagome got up; got dressed; ate breakfast; ran outside; ran into the well
house; jumped into the well; and didn't go anywhere.
'Why isn't the well working?' she asked herself.
~~~In Feudal Japan~~~
Inuyasha, Shippo, Miroku, and Sango were all at Kaede's hut.
They had told the old miko about what happened to the well.
Kaede was thinking while the others watched her, waiting for an
explanation.
Inuyasha started becoming impatient and said, "Well old hag, what happened
to the well?"
He said it in a harsh and impatient voice.
"Ye must learn to be patient Inuyasha, I do not know what happened to the
well or why it is doing this."
Inuyasha crossed his arms over his chest in one of his famous poses and
responded with a "feh".
All the occupants in the room sighed with annoyance.
"However Inuyasha.I have found a way to help ye unseal the well-" Kaede
didn't get to finish what she was saying before Inuyasha interrupted by
asking,
"How?"
"Let me finish speaking Inuyasha and I shall tell ye." Kaede calmly said.
Inuyasha sat back down in his spot on the floor, "Continue." He simply
said.
Kaede turned towards the others again and said,
"There is a way to unseal the well.but there is a downfall to this spell."
"What is it?" Sango asked curiously.
Kaede sighed and said sadly, "It will take exactly 5 years to do."
"WHAT!!!!!!!!!" Inuyasha screamed standing up very angry.
"YOU MEAN I HAVE TO WAIT THAT LONG FOR HER!!!!" Inuyasha yelled with steam
literally coming out of his ears.
Kaede just simply nodded and then asked,
"Why have ye become so interested if Kagome-san ever came back?"
Inuyasha turned another shade of red and then turned quickly so he was
facing the wall.
Miroku, Sango, and Shippo gave him knowing looks that seemed to say 'we-
know-what-your-trying-to-hide-from-us-and-it-isn't-working'.
"I never said I was interested if Kagome ever came back, I could care less
if she never did come back. I'm just saying that because Naraku might get
more jewel shards then us in that amount of time."
Inuyasha said, the blush disappearing.
Sango turned back to Kaede, "So how exactly dose this spell work?" she
asked.
Kaede took a scroll off one of the shelves near her and opened it up; she
began to read it.
"This spell is known as the "spell of unsealing" according to this scroll
it says that to make it work one must find a special flower that grows in a
special place.
Once ye has found this flower ye must take its petals and grind them up,
after that add some herbs of different kinds and grind those up as well.
Last sprinkle the mixture onto the area you wish to unseal and wait 6 years
for it to take effect." Kaede finished reading the scroll and put it back
on the shelf.
"What is this flower the spell speaks of?" asked Miroku who had been quite
the whole time.
Kaede looked at all of them to make sure they were listening, Inuyasha was
pretending to have no interest what so ever but he was listening with his
ears.
"The flower is called a 'Hiptana' (pronounced: "hip-ta-na")" Kaede said.
"Where do we find it?" Shippo asked now with his own curiosity.
Kaede looked down at his small form and said,
"It is in a place that is very hard to find; it is said to be guarded by a
mystical creature of some sort."
"Is it a demon?" Inuyasha interrupted again.
"No Inuyasha tis not a demon nor a human, it is unknown as to what it is."
Kaede said.
Inuyasha snorted and said, "Then we'll go see what it is then."
Sango and Miroku snapped to attention at what he just said,
"Inuyasha! It would take days to find the place it might even take years
and by the time we find the flower it would be to late!" Sango said.
Inuyasha did a smirk that would make Sonic mad for copying him,
"You forgot I'm part demon, I could smell the place probably miles away
from us." Inuyasha said in a mocking tone.
"Do not get ye over-confident, that special place like I said is guarded
that includes the smells of the flowers in it." Kaede said.
Inuyasha did an anime fall then got back up,
"SO HOW ARE WE SUPPOSE TO FIND IT IF I CAN'T EVEN SMELL IT!!" Inuyasha
yelled followed by an angry growl.
Shippo was practically almost blown off of Sango's shoulder at the force of
Inuyasha's voice.
"Calm down Inuyasha, there is another way to find it." Kaede said to the
still angry half-demon.
"What is the other way Kaede-baba?" Miroku asked while his hand was
wondering toward Sango again.
"Come closer and I shall tell ye." Kaede said motioning the young travelers
to come closer to her.
~~~Kagome's time~~~
Kagome climbed out of the well for the 7th time that day, she still never
went through.
'I wonder if the well sealed itself? Oh well I don't really care, Inuyasha
is probably so happy I'm gone that he's doing a happy dance in a tree.'
She laughed at her own joke.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
'But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)'
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Kagome went back into her home and got some dinner.
She fed Buyo (is that how it's spelled?).
Then she went upstairs to her bedroom and flopped down on her bed.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
'There were moments of gold

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Kagome took a 15-minute quick nap and then got ready for bed.
Around 8:45p.m she fell asleep still hoping that the well would soon work.
~~~Inuyasha's time~~~
"So what do we have to do?" Miroku asked Kaede as he, Inuyasha, Sango, and
Shippo scooted closer to her to hear what they had to do to find the
special place.
Kaede cleared her throat and began to speak,
"It said by legend that the place is called the "Fletia Nako" (A/N: The
language that that name comes from is known as the idiot language which I
speak very well of. Translation is at the end of the story.)."
Kaede began.
"From what I have heard, long ago Fletia Nako was a peaceful place. Animals
thrived and lived in the patches of brightly colored flowers.
Then one day a small rabbit demon appeared in the garden, it posed no
threat at all to the flowers but soon after its arrival more powerful
demons came and tried to take all the flowers.
The animals managed to fight the demons off but in the end all but one
animal was left standing."
Kaede looked at her audience and mentally smiled at their attention; she
continued,
"That one last animal, I hear, looks like a hybrid of a cat, fox, and a
wolf.
When the battle was over it didn't want something like the battle to happen
again, so the last animal took the duty of guarding that place with its
life.
The way it ensured the flowers would be safe was to cover the entire area
around the garden. It's kind of like a safeguard because it blocks the
smell of the flowers from any demon noses that would happen to be near.
The only way to find the garden would be to play a certain tune on a hand-
made wooden flute.
I just happen to have that flute with me, but we need someone here to play
it."
Kaede said as she looked again at her audience and then looked at Sango,
"Sango-san would you like to play it? The tune is quite easy to play and
it's not at all long."
Sango pointed to herself and then asked, "Me? Why me Kaede-baba?"
"Because this particular flute can only be played by a young girl." Kaede
said slowly getting up and rummaging through some old trunks.
"Ah here it is." Kaede said after a while, turning around to show the shard
hunters the flute.
The music instrument itself wasn't at all really bad; it just looked old
and needed a good polish.
Inuyasha got up from where he sat and walked toward the door; he turned to
his companions and said,
"I'm going to go think for a few minutes, I'll be back later." Inuyasha
then ran out the door and he went to the well.
He rushed out to the clearing with the well half expecting Kagome to be
standing right by the well.
But just as he thought she was not there, and wouldn't be for God knows how
long.
He plopped down next to the well looking down into it.
"Kagome." he said quietly to himself praying to the Gods that she would
magically appear at the bottom.
But again it didn't happen.
"Why did you have to leave?" Inuyasha asked quietly.
'Well that's obvious you idiot, you are the reason she high-tailed it back
to her time. And Lord knows why the well all of a sudden sealed.'
A voice in his head said.
(A/N: If anyone read my other story 'Not Belonging 2' this part will be
similar to the "war" Skim was having in his head.)
'Yeah, why did you have to be a jackass instead of a jerk?' another voice
asked.
'How the hell should I know? I didn't say it his mouth did!' the other
voice said.
'His mouth doesn't have a conscience, his brain does. The sad part is his
brain is the size of a peanut.' The second voice said.
Inuyasha shook his head furiously to get the voices out of his head.
The voices shut their traps after a while and Inuyasha still stared down
into the well.
He did a sad sigh then got up and went over to a nearby tree.
He jumped onto one of the high branches and started to think about a
different subject.
(A/N: I know Inuyasha doesn't think a lot and I know cause I love and watch
the show so I know how he acts but for the sake of this story just go along

'That story Kaede was telling us.it sounded familiar. I just can't put my

Inuyasha thought for a minute about that.
'Hmm where have I heard it before?' Suddenly something snapped in his head.
'Oh my God that was a story my mom told me when I was little! Hmm I think I

He thought a bit more.
'Holy mother of Hell I think I know where the place is!' Inuyasha screamed
in his head before thinking it over.
'Yes I definitely know where the Fletia Nako is. I better go tell the
others.' With that he jumped out of the tree and ran all the way back to
Kaede's hut.
Back at Kaede's hut Sango had learned how to play the mystical tune in a
matter of 5 minutes.
Miroku was just about to grope Sango when Inuyasha busted right through the
door, panting for breath.
"Guys I. know where. the Fletia. Nako. is!" Inuyasha said between pants for
breathes.
"You do!" All the current people in the hut said at once, even Kilala said,
"mew".
"Yeah if you guys want to unseal the well you better come on." Inuyasha
said as he began to breathe normally now.
"How dose ye know where it is?" Kaede asked raising an eyebrow.
"None of your business I just do." The half-demon said stubbornly.
"Okay we can go now." Sango said as she placed her large boomerang on her
back.
"Can I come too?" Shippo asked from on top of Inuyasha's head.
"No brat, you can't come cause it might-you just can't come alright. Stay
here with Kaede and do something useful." Inuyasha said walking out the
door with Miroku, Sango, and Kilala following.
~~~3 hours later~~~
"It's over here guys! I found the path!" Inuyasha yelled over to his two
friends as they ran over to where he was.
They were on a dirt path, which strangely had a lot of flowers on the sides
of it.
However on the right side of the path was a fallen tree that had claw marks
that glowed a light shade of yellow.
Inuyasha had told them earlier that the tree was a clue to the garden's
whereabouts.
"I think my mom said something about there being a trail of fallen trees
just like this." Inuyasha said examining the marks on the fallen tree.
"I found another one!" Miroku called out a few feet away from his other two
traveling partners.
Inuyasha jumped from where he was all the way to where Miroku was in one
leap while Sango and Kilala looked in another place near where Miroku found
the other fallen tree.
Inuyasha examined the tree Miroku had found; sure enough it had the same
three yellow scratch marks.
"Good job Miroku, you actually found something today." Inuyasha said.
(He meant the remark as a joke, sorry if that's a little OOC for him.)
"I found another one!" Sango yelled over to them.
They ran to where she was and looked at the tree she found, same marks as
the other two trees.
This went on for a few more hours till.
"Ouch!" Inuyasha yelped as he hit something really hard that was invisible.
Sango went up to where he was when he hit the thing and place he hands out
in front of her.
Sure enough there was something solid blocking their way.
"I think we found the barrier that keeps demons and people out.
"Well that thing must be pretty powerful to knock me on my head and cause a
splitting headache."
Inuyasha said while rubbing his head.
"Kaede told us that the way to get in is to play that short song on the
flute." Miroku said wisely.
"Yeah but she never told us when to play it or what it will do." Sango said
looking at the wooden flute in her hands.
"Well just give it a try." Inuyasha said becoming impatient.
"The more we wait to get the damn flower, the longer it will take for the
well to unseal."
Inuyasha said gruffly.
'Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the tree this morning.' Sango
thought.
"Ok I'll play it but I don't know what it will do."
With that Sango began to play the soothing melody that Kaede taught her.
(A/N: If anyone has 'Pokemon The Movie 2000' the melody Sango is playing is
the one from the movie known as "Lugia's Song".)
After Sango finished playing the melody Inuyasha took a step forward and
didn't hit anything.
"Hey we can go through now." Inuyasha said happily.
All three ran past the barrier before they were stopped by a shadowed
figure.
"Stop right where you are. I don't know how you got past my shield but you
can not go any farther."
The voice of the figure said.
Inuyasha pulled out Tetseiga and said, "Unless you want to be diced you
better let us pass."
Sango stepped forward and said,
"Forgive him he's always like that. We are not here to harm any of the
flowers or you; we are just looking for a special flower that we hear can
unseal something that is sealed up."
"I can not allow you in, I'm truly sorry. But you can't come in here no
matter how bad you need that flower."
The voice said again.
Inuyasha did an angry growl from deep in his throat and raised Tetseiga,
"If you don't let us in now I swear I'll kill you if I have to." Inuyasha
said angrily.
"I'm sorry but you are a demon, and I can not allow demon's into this
garden." The voice said.
"Please, we desperately need that flower. Our friend is trapped on the
other side of the Bone-Eaters Well and we need that flower to unseal the
well."
Sango pleaded.
"He's only half-demon and won't hurt anybody unless he needs to. And he's
just as desperate as us to get the flower."
Miroku said in the same pleading tone as Sango.
The shadowed figure looked at each one of them closely then put its eyes on
the Tetseiga,
"Alright you may enter but then you must leave after you find the flower
you are looking for.
And he." the figure said pointing toward Inuyasha,
"He can only come in if he puts his sword back in its scabbard."
Inuyasha put the Tetseiga back and followed Miroku and Sango into the
garden.
"Thank you so much." Sango said to the shadowed figure.
The figure kept silent but kept a close eye on each of them.
The minute Inuyasha stepped into the garden his sensitive nose was
literally attacked by different enchanting smells.
"God that's a lot of smells and a lot of flowers." He said as he looked at
the thousands upon thousands of brightly colored flowers everywhere he
looked.
"How will we ever find the flower with all these other flowers?" Sango
asked staring in awe at all the flowers in the garden.
"Perhaps the guardian of this place will tell us." Miroku said.
"You go ask since it appears to not want to talk to me." Inuyasha said
already looking around for the flower.

A/N: I don't want to stop it there but I must cause it's starting to get
to long.
It would probably take me more then 5 months to finish the story if I went
on with this chapter.
Ok like I said I would translate the name "Fletia Nako".
It is pronounced: "flee-tee-a nah-ko" it means "Garden of Peace" in the
idiot language.
Ok so there is the translation now I will go work on the third part of
this.
Please R&R.
