YOUKO: The girl thanks you for your reviews.
~SCQ~ Aww whatever Youko. But I do thank you. Hope you enjoyed! Oh.. before I forget: I do not own Inuyasha or YYH! (I own YOUKO!*winks*) YOUKO: She's lying.

~Chapter 2~

They another soft chuckle, that could only be described as masculine, then the presence they felt was gone. They turned around saw no one. "Well, it couldn't have been Miroku.. he would have been unconscious right about now." Stated Kagome. "Yeah, and it couldn't have been Inuyasha because Kagome would have sa- -.." but Sango didn't get a chance to finish.
"Are you alright?!" asked Inuyasha hastily. Miroke just gazed at the girls with a lecherous grin on his face.
"AHHH" they cried in unison. "SIT!" yelled Kagome. Then the girls started to bombard them with rocks and insults. Shippo just watched from the base of a nearby tree shaking his head at the unjust scene. "What the Hecks your problem!? We heard you scream so we came!!" Miroku was on the ground dazed from the ambush. Inuyasha picked him up and headed back to the camp along with a giggling Shippo. "Well I guess we should get out for we get all pruney, hmm?" Kaijuro and Sango nodded and they got out and put on there clothes. They got to camp and Kagome summoned an extra blanket with a summoning spell Kaede taught her, I came in handy many times but you can only use on stuff you've stored in a certain place, which in Kagome's case was in her room. Shippo curled up with Kagome and went to sleep. After a while, everyone went to sleep.

~*~*~With Lord of the East



"Where is she?! She's been gone a day! Her mothers going to kill me!" Lord of East cried. "Father, I believe earlier she went out. She said she would be out for a while." Stated a male at another side of the room.
"*Sighs* That girl is going to be the end of me one day."

~*~*~Back With The Group(the next morning



They had already eaten breakfast and were already traveling again. Kagome had changed into some black baggy pants that had dark blue pockets and was also outlined in dark blue. She has a short – sleeve navy blue shirt that fits her upper body well. They had been walking for some hours now and the group was starting to tire. It was about noon.
"Inuyasha, maybe we should rest. We're all getting tired." Giving a pointed look at the sleeping Shippo.
"NO!! We gotta find the jewl shards!!" "Kagome is right Inuyasha, we're no good if we have no energy." Miroku stated mater-o-factly. "Heh. Fine! weak humans." They decided to stop about a mile from a small river for some lunch. Inuyasha, of course, was up in a tree.(C/N: as much as he's up in trees, you would think he's a bird! On with the story!) Shippo was chasing Kilala, Sango and Miroku were.. well, being themselves. Kagome and Kaijuro decided to go on a walk.

~*~With Kagome & Kaijuro



They were a good mile away from camp. They had been talking about what they had been doing before they all met. It turns out that Kaijuro was Princess of the Eastern Lands! Well, they should have known by the marking on her forehead. It is a baby-blue snowflake with a darker blue diamond shape in the middle of it. "So you're Princess of the East? Wow. That must be fun!" "Well, actually it's not that great. I don't get to anything cuz my father says that young ladies should learn to sew, and be elegant, and should not be out rough housing and stuff of the sort! It's boring also cuz I have a brother and not a sister I could associate with."
"Yeah.. I know what you mean. I have a little brother and he's so annoying sometimes. I swear sometimes I think he's a monster out to get me!" They both laughed at this. Something Kaijuro hadn't been able to do with someone in a long time. But, unfortunately, they sensed a demon, and it was approaching fast. Kagome also sensed that it had two jewl shards, which wasn't really good seeing as how they were so far from camp. They also, somewhere in the middle of their conversation, they had gotten out of his sensing range.
It was a bear Youkai. It wasn't bigger than the tiger they fought though. "Woman, GIVE ME THE JEWL SHARDS, NOW!!" it bellowed.
It attacked with full force without wasting any time. We dodge many times, but it seemed impossible to fight since Kagome did not have her bow and arrows. Kaijuro had her sword though, so maybe there was some hope!
"There's a shard in its head and stomach!" "Alright!" She attacked but she could not get close enough. The bear clawed at her. He missed but the impact knocked her away and through two trees. It then lunged an Kagome. Kagome put her hands up to protect herself. A bright light flashed before their eyes and the bear stumbled backwards. Kaijuro shielded her eyes. When the light cleared, Kagome was holding two swords. One in each hand. When Kagome opened her eyes she, too, was surprised at what she saw. The youkai recovered and charged at her again. For some reason Kagome attacked it with the swords and knew how to use them. When Kaijuro saw Kagome attack she attacked as well. Within a few seconds the bear youkai was dead.
"Whoa. How did you do that Kagome?! I thought you only knew how to use bows? But you can use swords?! Not only that but you're a twin blade?! Wait! Where did those swords come from?!" asked a very confused Kaijuro. Too bad for Kaijuro because Kagome was just as confused as she was. "I don't know" mummered a shocked Kagome, who was now examining the two blades. "I think my Miko powers may have materialized them thinking that they were a better weapon for me." Kaijuro nodded knowing it could be very much so true. She had heard of people doing it before. But it took a lot of power and strength both mentally and physically. "I guess we should head back. It's getting dark."
"Oh! How long have we been gone! Oh boy we'll never live this down. All Inuyasha will do I nag on and on about how we wasted more time for looking for 'his' precious jewl shards." Somewher in between while she was talking she had picked up the noe purified shards and put the away. They both set off to camp all the while discussing the swords. They had noticed that on the swords were names. One said 'I am Shiki of the snow my sister you must know. The other said 'I am Kibino of the earth I hold lots of mirth'(C/N: hey it was all I could think of.. you'll get what it means later on. And KIBINO is pronounced: key-be-no).. They mused over they saying for a while. Finally deciding that they were frustrated they decided to think on it later. *shch* They turned their heads to where they heard the noise. It came form a bush. *shch* Thry looked at it. Then out came a---.
