HI! I finally became bored enough that my brain finally came up with a few
ideas! ::Crowd cheers :: I had to help fix a few windows at my
grandmother's, and it was annoying to say the least! And my muse came back
from vacation! So.YAY! But for those of you who were waiting, here is the
next chappie! I did promise after all that I would get around to it when I
was hit by inspiration! Thankfully it wasn't a train!
Thanks to you the reviewers! I don't have all the names right now, but you know who you are! Cheyo-Vera.Thanks.I sooooooooo love my job.::Wishes for death:: ^.^8
Disclaimer: You ask the same thing every day. I give you the same answer! I OWN NOTHING THAT IS THIS POPULAR! Good day to you! ::Slams door shut:: ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
'Alright, we have to be close to the bottom about now.' I thought as I gazed around. It was almost like home. Except everything was dead. Dead trees. Dead bushes, a dry river bed. Even a decrepit shrine straight ahead could be seen. It looked like my home and everything around it had died. There wasn't even any grass under my boots. I gazed around at the dead landscape while the others were getting orientated. The trip wasn't as smooth as the other ones were. It was like someone threw us into a blender and turned it one full blast. Needless to say, they were all dizzy. I just shut my eyes and I was fine. A few minutes later and Yusuke was still dizzy. So, I took the gem out of his hands and looked for the direction of the next portal. It was almost directly ahead of us, in the shrine. That wasn't too far. The gem was already dim. 'Way too easy' I thought again. 'Way, way too easy!' I sat down and waited for the guys to get over their dizzy spell.
It only took a few minutes for them to re-orient themselves. I told them that the portal wasn't too far away. But I kept the gemstone. I found it, so I should get to keep it. I gazed out at the ruined landscape and wished that I were back home. No one really bothered me there. I was a mess. My clothes had dried blood in them. My hair was all oily and nasty. The meaning of the word 'Bath' was only a dream to me now. And I was sure that I smelled really bad too. I know Yusuke did. Kurama and Hiei were demons so, I guess that helped them out a little. I tried to search out any danger from Demons. I couldn't sense anything. It was strange. I usually could feel even the slight presence of even a human. But, here I couldn't sense anything. Not even Yusuke, Hiei and Kurama. I shook my head. I just wasn't concentrating hard enough. I was worried about Dad, and this place reminded me of home. So that's why I couldn't concentrate. The thought seemed right. And I made myself believe it though deep down, I knew something was wrong. I bit back a yawn as the others stalked towards the portal. I tried to shake off the fuzziness in my head, but it refused to go away. I walked a short distance away from the others. And now that I think about it, I'm glad I did.
There was an electric wall surrounding the portal. We couldn't see it, but could touch. Or at least Yusuke, Hiei and Kurama could feel it. I saw them walk straight into it and fall back on their respective asses. And all I could manage to do is stare at them. 'Maybe the trip through the portal did disorientate me more than I thought' I mused. Yusuke was shouting several colorful words that Grandpa Inu-Yasha would have been proud of. I grinned slightly and sat down. "HEY! WHY ARE YOU SITTING DOWN?" Yusuke shouted at me. I glared at him. "There's no use just ramming the wall. So, it's better to think of a way around the problem." Simple yet true. Plus it gave me a little time to rebraid my hair. 'Now, what has helped us before to find the portals?' The answer hit me so suddenly that I just about fell over! At most of the levels, there was some carvings depicting how to get to the portals! We just didn't need to look for them a few times. I grinned at my own stupidity. There was always a way. What if the minor meanies couldn't remember how to get down to the lowest level to talk to the boss? They needed pictures to show them how to get there. I giggled. When I looked up, all three men were staring at me. I couldn't tell if they were amused or angry. So, I stood up and dusted myself off before telling them what I though of. Hiei definitely looked angry. I don't think he likes very much. Especially since I was right about several things that he tried to contradict. And he was giving me the shivers the way he was staring at me so intently. It was creepy to say the least. I was about to yell at him to stop staring when he looked away. I growled inwardly, but stopped when Kurama put a hand on my shoulder. I smiled at him. 'God! How could any man, demon, human or anything, be so damned cute!'
As we were looking for the carvings for this level, I caught wind of a familiar scent. The sent of someone strong, and smart, yet with an undertone of gentleness. I knew this scent though I had only smelled it a few times. But one does not forget the smell of Family. 'Uncle Sesshomaru!' I cried inwardly. 'He's here!' I whipped my head in the direction that his scent was coming from. I wanted to go after him, but the others wouldn't want to go after the one who instigated this descent to hell. I became nervous, almost to the point of biting my nails. So, I told a white lie. I said that we should split up. We could find the carvings faster that way. Hiei wouldn't agree with me, but then again, he wouldn't agree with me even if I said that the moon was silver! So we ignored him. Yusuke was all for it. His exact words were "More demon ass kicking for me then!" Kurama looked skeptical, but went along with the idea. Hiei, being outvoted, just sulked a short distance away. We all picked a different direction to search. I, of course, picked the direction that Uncle Sesshomaru was. He was family after all. And even though he got us into this mess, maybe he had an explanation. I hoped that he did. If he didn't, Yusuke and the others, not to mention Dad, when we found him, would kill him very slowly. And I mean slowly. As in years, slowly. I pushed the horrid thought away as I jogged towards Uncle Fluffy. I was supposed to meet them back at the pseudo shrine in an hour. I wasn't planning on being back in time. Not with out my Uncle. Evil or not. I kept on jogging.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Well. It was a little short. But for still having a slight writer's block, I think I did rather well! Remember Reviews=Updates. You know what to do! And I know there was something else that I wanted to say, but I'm sleepy, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, and I have to go get ready for work. The most boring work in the world. (At least to me!) And It may take a little time to get the next chapter out, so please be patient! Thanks! ::Falls asleep:: zzzzzzzzzz....
