Note: Hi everyone! ^_^ I finally finished chapter 9. I hope you enjoy it.
Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
please review. I worked hard on this chapter. I'd really like to know what
people think about it. Disclaimer: as always, I don't own Inu Yasha,
Kagome, Miroku, Shippo, Sango, Sesshoumaru, Rin, Kaede, Kikyo, Naraku,
Souta, etc. They all belong to Rumiko Takahashi. R&R!!! PLEASE!!!!
Kagome and Miroku had gone to bed early that night. Neither of them heard the phone ringing. The next morning Kagome saw the light on the answering machine flashing. She listened to it. It was Souta.
"Kagome? Where are you? Please hurry. Mama, Grandpa and I were separated. I don't know where they are. I heard screaming earlier and I'm scared that it was Mama. The guy that brought us here is sleeping right now. He doesn't know I'm using the phone." A door slammed.
"Hey you! What are you doing in here?" The man slapped Souta. Souta cried out in pain. Then yelled.
"PLEASE HURRY KAGOME!!!"
"SILENCE!!!" Another slap then a thud.
"You might want to hurry if you want you family left alive." It was over. Kagome had fallen to the floor and was shaking. The doorbell rang. Kagome didn't seem to notice so Miroku answered the door.
"Oh. Eri. Arimi. Hi. What are you doing here?" Miroku asked as he let the two girls in.
"Hi Miroku. Where's Kagome?" they asked together. Miroku just pointed to where she was.
"Kagome? Are you okay?" Eri asked as they entered the living room where Kagome was still on the floor shaking.
"You look like you just say a ghost" Arimi pointed out. Kagome explained how she had this jewel. Then someone stole it. And now this guy wants it and is using her family as ransom to get it. she didn't mention anything about her friends or time traveling down the well. The two girls were shocked. Kagome let them listen to the message.
'Hold on Souta. Please hold on. We have to wait for Inu Yasha to get it back. Even though Naraku must have it, I know Inu Yasha can win if he tries and controls his anger.' Kagome thought as her friends listened to the message and she heard Souta scream yet again. School was the same as the day before except no one bothered to keep their voices down when talking about Kagome. Eri, Arimi and Miroku were comforting Kagome. Then Miroku was dragged off by a bunch of girls. Then one of those girls said something that could not be ignored.
"Why don't you just ditch her Miroku? You could stay with me. She looks like she could just fall over and die right now. She's a mess." At that Miroku stood up. The chair he was in fell over. He began to yell.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'JUST DITCH HER'? YOU THINK THAT I WOULD GIVE UP MY FRIENDSHIP WITH HER JUST BECAUSE SHE'S HAVING A BAD DAY? YOU MUST BE INSANE!" The whole class was looking at him. Kagome was surprised how he stood up for her. He quieted down a little.
"Just because someone is having troubles in life or a bad day gives you no right to bring them even further down like you've done to Kagome." He walked over to Kagome and held out his hand.
"Come Kagome. We don't need to stand for this" Kagome took his hand, got u, and they left. As the door closed behind them, Kagome heard Eri and Arimi standing up for them.
"You shouldn't have been so harsh. They're both having family problems. Kagome's brother has been kidnapped, their grandfather is dyeing from heart problems, Kagome's mother is having a break down from all this. And Miroku's parents are having troubles getting all their bills paid. We were told this morning that they probably won't be able to take him back for another year and a half!" they scolded the class together. Kagome chuckled as they walked away from the classroom. Most of that wasn't true. At least, so she hoped.
"Its amazing what those two can come up with." Kagome muttered. A few minutes later the bell rang to dismiss for lunch. Kagome and Miroku headed for the cafeteria. Soon Eri and Arimi caught up with them.
"We told them off for you guys. Now, the whole class is ready and willing to welcome you guys back without making a big deal." Eri explained.
"We know." Miroku and Kagome said together. "We heard."
******************************************************
Back in class everyone was nicer to them. After that there were no more problems in school that day.
******************************************************
Kagome was in a good mood after school and on the walk home. Eri and Arimi had invited her and Miroku to go to the movies with them. They accepted. Everyone went to Kagome's to drop off their bags. As the others went inside, Kagome headed to the well. She hopped in. She could feel it. A shard of the Shikon no Tama was moving closer. It was a very faint feeling, but it was there.
"KAGOME!!" Arimi screamed. Kagome climbed out of the well and ran to the house. When she got there Eri and Arimi were looking at her with compassion and Miroku lead her inside.
"There's a message for you. Its your brother again." Miroku said solemnly. Kagome looked at the answering machine, scared, for a few minutes until she listened. Miroku was right. It was Souta.
"Kagome. I know you're at school right now but this is the only chance I have to call you. After I called last night, this big guy hurt me. Worse than the bullies at school. Please hurry Kagome. I heard mama crying last night and the guy said to his boss that Grandpa is dyeing. I have to go now. Before I get caught. By Kagome." He sounded like he was crying throughout the whole message. Kagome walked outside without saying a word. Souta's last words kept replaying in her head 'Bye Kagome'. She checked the mail. There was one thing there. A letter addressed to her with no return address. She opened it.
Your grandfather is sick and dyeing. Your mother is having
a break
down and won't stop crying. If she doesn't stop she will
most likely
wear herself out and die. Your brother is a nosy little
brat that will
get severely hurt if he doesn't stop. You may want to hurry
and get
the Shikon no Tama to me soon. Kagome re-read it. She fell to her knees sobbing. She screamed with all the pain in her hear. Hearing her scream everyone rushed out to where she was. She handed the letter to Miroku and he read it aloud to Eri and Arimi.
"Oh my." Eri trailed off.
"I can't believe we were right when we were yelling at the class." Arimi said, shocked. They all headed back into the house. Miroku helped Kagome up. They were behind the other two. Kagome whispered to him.
"I felt is. I felt a shard of the jewel when I was in the well."
***************************************************
"Naraku." Inu Yasha scowled. Not only could he feel his presence, he could smell both Naraku and his miagma. Suddenly he felt something. His friend were in danger. Instinctively he thought Sango could handle it. Then he remembered that Sango was wounded and unconscious. Inu Yasha wanted to stay and fight Naraku but his friend needed him. So he stated back.
***************************************************
Shippo had remembered the time Kagome had gotten through the well even though the Shikon no Tama was on this side. So he decided to try that again. with the shard in Sango. Kirara carried them to the well and leaned over so that they could slide in. Shippo laid Sango out so that she was on her back.
"I hope this works." Shippo muttered. Just then the wind picked up. Kagura appeared at the top of the well.
"Give me that girl." she said. Kagura prepared to go down the well but something stopped her. Flashes of red and silver streaked past, above them as Kagura flew away from the well. On the way to the village Inu Yasha had run into Sesshoumaru. After a few minutes of arguing, they had decided to put their differences behind them, for the moment, and work together to defeat Naraku and his minions. As Kagura, Inu Yasha, and Sesshoumaru started their battle clouds tolled in and it grew dark. rain began to fall.
'Kagura's gotten stronger since out last battle.' Inu Yasha thought as he struggled to keep ins footing. Sesshoumaru was watching from the side. Learning the enemy's strategies before he dove in.
A/N: Wow. That was long. Well? What do you think?
Kagome: SOUTA!!!!!! *hugs him*
Souta: Its okay Kagome. Its just a story. I'm right here.
Kagome: heh. ^_^; Inu Yasha and Sesshoumaru? Never thought I'd see it happen.
Sango: Where am I?
Hei: You are unconscious in the well. Don't worry though. You'll get your turn soon. ^_^
Sango: Good. I'm kinda getting tired of being unconscious.
Hei: Miroku lost his temper. heh. Please review people. Chapter 10 is going to be put up just seconds after this one so you can keep reading. I really hoped you liked this chapter. I enjoyed writing it. But it took longer to come up with and write it than it did to type it up.
Kagome: I have one question. What happens to Mama, Grandpa and Souta? And will Inu Yasha ever get the Shikon no Tama so that Miroku and I can go back? Okay so that was two questions. Minor detail.
Hei: Slow down Kagome. You'll see. C'mon people. If the characters of the story have this much to say then you must have something. PLEASE REVIEW!!!! Also if any of you know of any male Japanese names, I would greatly appreciate it. I'd even give you credit for it. I need it for an upcoming chapter.
