Fire's Heart

Ahknee/Kitteen

(Disclaimer: If I actually did own the rights to Inuyasha or Sailor Moon or any of the characters from either, then the bishounen from each {minus Mamo- baka, I hate him and it'd burn my eyes to see such} would run around naked, thus creating wonderful fanservice for the female anime lovers.)

Baka FFN wouldn't work for the past few days. *pouts unhappily* And I was wanting to see if any good fics had come out, too.

¬_¬ --I have an obsession with that face. ^^;

£.£-- I like making this one, too. ^^;;

Anywho, hope all of you enjoy this chapter, I've worked my arse off trying to get it as perfect as possible. Writer's Block bites big time.

*le sigh* Y'know, I've been really bored the past few days, and school has been getting harder and harder by the day! @.@ I HATE SCHOOL! Grades were recieved a few nights ago, and I, lucky, got good grades, so no worries, really. @.@

Anywho, I am really starting to hate my life at the moment. Sure, life is all good and well when you get on the computer and get to talk with friends and get lost in the internet, but I have a facade I am putting up to hide my feelings from a bunch of people.

. . . .This is so getting off topic, isn't it? *sweatdrop*

Review responses:

Yume no Tenshi - Eh, glad you think 'dis be a great story'. ^^ Okay, okay, I see.

Skittles the Sugar Fairy - Oh, no, RUN! She's extra hyper everyone! *ducks behind a wall of sandbags* Okay, okay, kidding. ^^ Well, face the facts, it'll be fun to see Kagome's family squirm with Minako there to bother them all. And anyway, Ami's there to help keep her under control, sort of. Yes, Jaken should stay out of Rei's way, otherwise a few animals will be having roasted frog legs for dinner some night. XD

Sailor Christian - You don't know that many Inuyasha characters?? Then why the heck are you reading this fic? There will be LOTS of characters you may not know about in here that'll pop up. Might want to go off and read spoilers sometime, kid, it'd be helpful to understand some of this. How far are you even into the series? Unless you watch the dubs on Cartoon Network, but, ah, even I only had that to go by (I lost my cable during the summer ;_;) and I still looked up everything on the internet. (-I already knew I was never going to see the ending to the series, so I just use spoilers to any anime I start to watch since some force prevents me from seeing the ending.)

Firenze - Yeah, I updated. . . . .*slowly inches away*

Shadowkitsune - Thanks. . . .And it WILL happen, I can guarantee it. *laughs evilly*

Angel-eyes56 - Yeah, me too. But hey, what can I say? She'll probably get a better sleeping spot soon. *giggles insanely*The groups are going to meet up, no worries about that.

Shadowkitsune - Woot, you added my fic to your favories list. *does a small dance* . . .You were gonna send Kurama on me? Spiffy! . . .Er, I mean, aw man. . . . . . *mumbles something about not minding that at all*

Talum - Er, thanks.

Okay, I've begun working on that Rei/Kouga fic for all of you people who wanted it. I'll try to get it up soon. . .And. . .I have absolutely no clue just how I'm going to work things into that fic. *sweatdrops*

Couple votes so far:

Rei/Sesshoumaru: 19

Rei/Inuyasha: 3

Rei/Sango: 1

Kagome/Inuyasha: 3

Rin/Sesshoumaru: 1

Rei/Kouga: 2

Um, um, so. . .The polls close this chapter. That means you can vote on this chapter but none after this point. No, that doesn't mean you can go back and vote over and over again, it means that once the next chapter is posted, pairings are decided. XP

Rei made a face as she sheilded her eyes from the ever-bright sun, wincing from the intensity of the light. Back in her Japan, there was so much pollution and so many buildings weakening the sun's rays that there was no real problem with there being too much light. But back here. . .There were barely any buildings, much less that much pollution to block out any sun.

On the upside, she could get a small tan from this, and the ozone layer was probably in perfect shape, so she probably wouldn't get too much damage to her skin while doing her 'tanning while walking' plan.

Crap, this was pathetic.

Rei knew that, she was just making liable excuses as to reason with her brain why exactly she had decided to follow an annoyingly cool man that just frustrated her, a hyper active little girl, and a toad, but there was no way she would ever get herself to believe anything.

Crap, when did she have to get back home anyway?

*******

Ami and Minako stood in front of the Higurashi residence, cooking up a plan.

It was no easy task for these two girls to get Rei's Grandpa to fess up the location of this place. They ended up having to threaten him to get the address. . .

. . .the threat being that they would stop visiting the shrine. The poor, old, hentai man, of course, couldn't let that happen.

"So. . . .What do we do now?"Minako asked for the millionth time.

"I'm thinking of it!"Ami sighed back.

"Aww. . . .Why can't we just march up and ask for Rei?"

"That would seem suspicious."

"Ooooh."

Ami sweatdropped. "Anyway, I think I have a plan, just follow my lead."

"Okie dokie!"Minako grinned, bouncing slightly on her heels.

Ami sighed. She was going to end up with a headache by the time this was all over.

*******

Violet eyes, shielded by some styilsh sunglasses, looked up from her book and around the pool.

'Haruka-papa is trying to sneak up on Michiru-mama.'she thought, smiling slightly and waiting for the inevitable screech and splash that always accompanied such things.

Hotaru smiled and giggled slightly as the sounds she predicted would happen did happen. . .along with a few other events.

Suddenly the young girl's secondary mother, Setsuna, perked up from the spot she was sunbathing.

"Setsuna-mama?"Hotaru asked, looking at Setsuna strangely.

"The Time Stream has been used!"Setsuna whispered. "And I only now sensed it?!"

Haruka and Michiru looked up from their water fight to pay attention to the wise Time Guardian's words.

"I must go."Setsuna said, standing and hurrying up to her room. (I cannot imagine Setsuna running. . .It's so. . .un-Setsuna like. . .O.o)

Hotaru set her book down and hurried after her adoptive mother, wondering what the problem was.

"Setsuna-mama?!"Hotaru called into the house, looking around frantically before rushing up the stairs and towards Setsuna's room.

Haruka and Michiru were right behind her, dashing up the flights of stairs with speeds unmatched, wanting to know why Setsuna was so upset over what was usually just a simple problem.

Inside the room, Setsuna had just transformed into Sailor Pluto, and was readying herself to travel back to the Gates of Time.

"Setsuna-mama? What's wrong?"Hotaru asked, peeking her head in the room.

"Yeah, tell us too!"Haruka said, hers and Michiru's heads appearing in the doorway.

Sailor Pluto just looked at them.

"Something is very amiss. One of our very senshi has traveled through time. And without my consent."

"Who did it?"Haruka asked.

"Rei."Pluto answered, grabbing a bag anf fishing through her drawers.

"How'd she do that?"Michiru asked.

"She has a family member who has been traveling through time for the past few months."

"And you knew about that?!"Haruka burst out.

"It was meant to happen, unlike Rei's little dropping in from following her cousin."

"What are you going to do about it, then?"Hotaru asked.

"Go to that time and bring her back, of course. What else did you expect?"

"Can I come too?!"Hotaru asked, going wide-eyed.

"You may not!"Michiru said.

"Aww, but why???"Hotaru asked, turning her puppy-dog eyes onto Michiru.

"Because there are demons running around there day and night, with no doubt that they shall be tracking us by the huge power radiating off of us in more than one way."Pluto replied, stuffing a few pouches into the bag.

"But I can handle them!"Hotaru whined.

"Absolutely not."Pluto said fiercely as she summoned her Time Staff and clicked it on the floor a couple of times, causing a door to appear before her.

"Stay safe, Setsuna!"Michiru called.

"Why wouldn't I?"

"And don't bring home any guys!"Haruka yelled.

"Why would I?"

"And I'm coming with you!"Hotaru shouted, waiting for the last minute after Pluto had disappeared through the door to slam it open and jump through herself, leaving a stunned Haruka and Michiru behind.

"We are such bad parents."Haruka said, earning a whap on the head from Michiru.

Rei swept some of her long raven hair behind her ear, not at all annoyed by it, having become used to it constantly getting in the way.

Night was beginning to fall (and it yelled 'Ack!' as it did ^^; Couldn't resist that.) and the group was still hiking through this forest.

Rei, though tired and grumpy around now having hiked about ten miles in one day, had a new train of thought on how to get out of here.

'I can roast him and stuff, but then that Rin kid would see the violence and I don't want to promote it into her life. . . .'

(Not promoting it into Rin's life? *holds a straight face before bursting into fits of laughter* Crap, Rin was friggin' attacked by WOLVES! Oh, that's a good one. . . .)

'And I have absolutely no clue where I am. . . .'

(Somewhere in Japan! Duh. Silly Rei.)

'. . . . .I now know what it's like to be the somewhat damsel in distress. . .Without the high castle and the dragons, though.'

Rei grumbled something under her breath and continued walking.

Why did she have a feeling this wouldn't be over for a long while?

*******

Erm. . . .Yet another short chapter. Gomen. ^^;; I'm trying to persuade my parents to buy alphabet beads so I can make a necklace with the whole poem Jabberwocky on it. . . . .

What? Stop staring! I have to! It's for a lit grade! Seriously!

. . . . .Come to boot, I also have to memorize the danged thing.

*clears throat* 'Twas brilling, did gyre and gimble in the wabe. . . .uh. . .something something something, and the mome raths outgrabe. *sweatdrop*

Crap, I have a lot of work to do.

Anywho, I'll attempt to get the next chapter out soon. With school, life, and all that crap in the way, everything is so hectic. Ja ne!
