Man, I tell you, it feels good to be back at your warm, comfy home. Who would of thought that it gets so cold in Georgia? It's just a perfect opportunity to update my fictions. I'm plenty surprised that I wasn't caught up at a night club, or spending hours playing Final Fantasy X 2 and Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. Oh well. Let the madness continue.

Disclaimer: You know a fanfiction is a form of flattery. Besides that's the beauty of creating an anime series and manga. Takahashi sama should know that better than anyone. So there's really no need in doing so. Or is it?

Inuyasha

A Mile in Their Shoes

Chapter 2: Maledictation

" Did I slept rough last night or what?" Kagome groggily awaken from slumber. The sound of chirping birds and playful children can be heard. The bright sunlight radiated easily through the hut's entrance, obscuring her vision slightly. She could of sworn that her vision is slightly weaker.

"Oh well. Good morning to me."

She suddenly had a tingling itch at the back of her head and she begins scratching it. She winced as she mistakenly scratched her head a little bit too hard. "Ow. How long has it been? I really need to clip my nails the moment I return home." She lowered her hands and observed them.

"That's funny. I don't remember wearing any press ons."

Hold on a second. They were claws.

"What the!?"

Frantically, she began fiddling her locks of hair. She felt a bang of hair brushed against her shoulders. Silver hair, that is! Then it finally dawned on her when she felt her ears.

Yep. Something's different about them too.

"GYHAAAAA!"

The horrified shriek can almost be heard throughout the vicinity of the entire village. "Wha-what is the meaning of this?"

"What's what Kagome?" Asked an alarmed Sangou. Usually, Sangou is not a squeamish person but she fainted when she noticed Kagome accompanied with a loud thud. Kagome also noticed something about Sangou.

She smells awfully good. Like an exotic fruit or something.

Shortly, Miroku rushed in the hut only to see Kagome who was still asleep, Inuyasha looking lost and horrified and Sangou laid out on the floor.

"Inuyasha, what's going on? I thought I heard a scream from Kagome. And why is Sangou laying unconscious on the floor?"

"I haven't the foggiest idea." Replied Kagome.

Miroku's mouth now hung wide open and stood stiff in shock.

"Oi." Inuyasha groaned as he woked up. " I must be coming down with a cold." He stood up and stretched his back, pressing his waist to pop stiffened bones. He grimaced when he felt something awfully soft and ample behind him.

"Something's new been added." He said nonchalantly.

It was a nice- um, derriere cloth in a green skirt.

" What the hell's going on!?" He turned and gawked at his etheric double and nearly screamed his lungs out. Along with Kagome.

"The fuck!?"

"Aaaaaaahhhhh!!"

"You're me!" They shouted in unison. Now gawking at their own appearance.

" It can't be!" Kagome paniced. "Inuyasha how did this happened?"

"Hey I didn't asked for long skinny legs and a duck butt, ya know." Retorted Inuyasha.

Kagome blushed at his last comment before making an angry, burlesque expression. " I do not have a duck's bottom. You're so insensitive."

"Well it certainly feels like one!" He retorted again frisking his (well, Kagome's) rear. "Get your hands off my booty!" Chided Kagome. Then she noticed her own scent. "Wow! You smell good!"

A malicious grin formed on Inuyasha's face then he snickered. " You just wait until PMS."

"Inuyasha, that was uncalled for!" Her face flushed even brighter. She took a good look at her appearance and wondered. Hard. "Oh my god! I do have a pincushion for an ass.!" She screamed.

"I told you so, wench. I just don't see how the fuck you be comfortable when you're riding that contraption." He pointed to her bicycle.

" Yeah, but that doesn't give you the right to touch my butt." She fumed.

Inuyasha frisked her rear once again.

"Stop that! Cut it out!"

He ignored her and continued.

"OSUWARI!"

*WHAP*

"Bitch! You can still do that!? That's fucked up!" Snapped Inuyasha indignantly.

"Hmph. Serves you right for abusing my body like that." Her spell stopped him from doing so, but still she felt bad for resorting to 'sit' her own body. Inuyasha rose himself from the ground and finally noticed the rosary once again around his neck.. "Aw damn!" He dreaded.

"Gyah! My face! I bruise way too easily." Screamed Kagome noticing the contusions on her face.

"Well this is new."

Kagome and Inuyasha whipped their sights towards the doorway. Where Miroku stood.

"Please Miroku! You must help us! Somehow we've been swithched." Pleaded Kagome.

"I see. But I'd never encountered such sorcery." Miroku stated.

" This is really giving me the creeps." Said Sangou recovering from unconsciousness. Then in a puff of smoke she transformed backed into Shippou. " Shippou if it's you then where's Sangou?" Kagome demanded.

"She's out doing her morning training." The vulpine child answered.

"Damn it! I bet Naraku's behind all of this." Cursed Inuyasha.

Miroku was dubious at his last notion. " That is doubtful, Inuyasha. From this spell I sense no trace of bale. The one who casted this spell is indeed not evil. Maybe we should wait for the caster of the spell to resurface."

"Damn Kagome. Your body is so weak and flimsy! Do you ever eat anything? If you do the weight comes down to your rear."

Kagome was deeply offended by that bastard in her body. "Osuwari!"

*WHAM*

"Oww."

Kagome glanced at her fallen form. Her skirt parted all the way to her waist, exposing her ample upper thighs and under garment. She began to wail hysterically. "My goodness! I am so fat!"

"Are you kidding Kagome? It look pretty fine to me." Miroku commented.

"No it's not!" It's all sticking out and- hey! Stop swooning at my ass, lech. It's my body."

"Whatever you say, Kagoyasha." Miroku replied, exiting the hut. Shippou laughed as he followed Miroku. "Kagoyasha and Inugome."

"This is all too embarassing." Sighed Kagome. " The sooner we find the one who casted the spell the better. She look down to Inuyasha. " You! You better take good care of my body. You hear me?!"

* * *

Not far away from the village where the gang's residing the demon who actually casted that spell was comfortly sitting in a tree. She was now peering at her crystal orb. " And so the fun begins."

She nearly dropped the damn orb when it suddenly begins to vibrate violently. "Eh? What is this?" She noticed a visage of a young stern, beautiful woman who looks an awfully like her current subject. " New developments, eh? She looks exactly like the girl in the hut." The orb revealed who the person was: the tragic miko, Kikyou.

Ryokou gasped at the new information. " Oh so she's the one called Kikyou? Goodness this is getting better by the minute." From the vision inside the orb, Kikyou was not far from her. " Ah, Kikyou. You're life here will become even more interesting."

She dematerialized and dissapeared in a cloud of blue mist once again. An eerie laughter gracing the air.

* * *

Kikyou was making her way through a open field path after healing soilder in the village behind her. She yelp and flinched when she heard a feminine voice from nowhere. "Naraku?"

"Naraku? Nope it doesn't ring any bells."

Kikyou was surprised when she saw a giant, Junoesque woman suddenly appearing out of thin air. Kikyou prepared an arrow and aimed and released it. The arrow transparently went through the strange woman.

"Whoa! Easy there lass." Ryokou reassured. "Listen, I'm not her to inflict harm on you."

"You're a demon and yet you are not in the least bit harm by my sacred arrow. And what's with the odd clothing?"

Ryokou took a look at her Greek robrs and smiled " Oh! Girl, I got this in Athens! This shit is hot right?"

Rarely, Kikyou made such an expression, but she was making a rather funny one right now. Which looks pretty much like a pouting child. "Athens? I am unfamiliar with such a city."

"Nevermind. Anyway, are you the great miko named Kikyou. Scurge of evil demons and the descendant of the legendary preistess, Midorikou?"

" Why yes I am." Kikyou replied. Suddenly the blue haired demon tossed a crystal orb at her. Instinctively, Kikyou caught it. She peeked at it and tears started to well in her eyes as she noticed a young woman and a hanyou conversating on a hill. "Why?"

"It is you." Ryokou confirmed. She raised her hand, summoning the orb in Kikyou's hand. The ord levitated back towards her. " Listen Kikyou san, I left those two with a enigma to decipher."

Kikyou was lost. "Exscuse me?"

"Listen, I do not know who is this person called Naraku, so don't worry."

Kikyou was relieved to hear that. "What is that you seek of me, mysterious one?"

" Those guys you saw in that orb, let's just say I'm testing them."

"Huh?"

Ryokou's wide lovely eyes suddenly became serious slits of evil. " Kikyou prepare yourself. For you are the next step in my little test later on."

"I do not understand." Kikyou replied.

"You'll see. Allow me to revive your former beauty. For I am helping you as well." With a snap of her finger Kikyou's soul snatchers disappeared and she felt an incredible life force welling inside her. Her skin was no longer a deathly pale she was know for. Now her skin was slightly tanned similar to her reincarnation.

Kikyou was astounded she never felt so alive in over fifty years. " This is incredible. What manner of sorcery is this?"

"Kikyou do as you will. But it is fated that you will meet the hanyou and that woman again in a few days. You no longer require those soul collecters to keep you alive. Farewell." She turned around and disappeared in the haunting blue mist again.

"Wait, I must know who you are!" Kikyou shouted.

"My name is Ryokou." The skies replied.

Kikyou gawked at herself again. Feeling like a million bucks! "Sugoi! Is this a dream?"
