Chapter 7: The Power of Sit

As Shippou runs frantically through the forest back to Kagome, he starts to scream, "Help, Kagome, Inuyasha is crazy, help Kagome!!!" Kagome, back in the hut, can hear every word of Shippou's. She gets up, another sharp pain comes but she manages to sustain her ability to stand. As she hears the voice come closer, she walks out of the hut. She can see Shippou running towards her, "Shippou, what's the matter?" she yells to him. But as she looks forward, she can see Inuyasha coming up behind Shippou fast. "Huh, oh no, Inuyasha is still a full youkai, I thought it would have wore off by now, I have to try to stop him!" she thinks as she starts to panic. "Inuyasha, I know you don't know who I am, but please, listen to me. You have to stop, come back to me, turn back to normal! Please!!"

As Shippou comes closer and closer to Kagome, Inuyasha comes twice as close. She looks around but cannot find a bow or even an arrow. "How am I gonna do this, ahh, I got it." "Osuwari," as she says this, Inuyasha was just about to attack Shippou. Inuyasha then falls face first to the ground. "Yes, I knew it would still work!" she thinks as Shippou comes running up to her and jumps on her shoulder. Inuyasha then gets up and comes running at them again. "Osuwari" Kagome said again, Inuyasha, again falls to the ground.

Shippou is happily on Kagome's shoulder, watching Inuyasha's beating. This beating goes on for quite a while, until Kagome's last sit, was the one that had knocked Inuyasha out, cold. "Kagome, we did it, we defeated....oh wait, he wasn't a foe to begin with, Kagome what happened" Shippou asks Kagome. Kagome thinks for a moment, to gather all of her thoughts, then tells Shippou of the adventure they have had. After her story, she remembers that she had the jewel in her pocket. She pulls it out, and thinks aloud, "Maybe, since the jewel is back, we can make the same wish, I can use the jewel to turn him back to human, yeah, it'll work!" Kagome then smiles big.

"I am sorry to disappoint you, Kagome, but it won't work like that." an old voice comes from behind her. It is Kaeda. "Huh, Kaeda, what do you mean and where did you come from?" Kagome asks. "I had a go tend to something, but I am now back, and I mean that thee cannot use the jewel for that wish." Kaeda answers. "But why?" "Look over there at thee Inuyasha." Kagome looks over to Inuyasha, he is face first in the ground, surrounded by the earth, for he is a foot within the ground from all of Kagome's sit commands. Kaeda continues, "When thee used the jewel before on Inuyasha, did he not want to become human? But now since he is a full youkai, me thinks that thee would not want to turn to mortal, for all he thinks about is killing now. So, sadly, thy cannot use the jewel on someone, without their consent." When Kagome heard this, she sheds her tears.

Meanwhile Sango and Miroku have made it to their hut, Yukato has regain consciousness and is up and about. Sango told Kirara to watch out for him while they are gone. "Are you ready to go, Sango?" Miroku asks. "Yes, lets go, something is wrong with Inuyasha, he has turned youkai again. So something must be wrong, and Kagome is probably here too." She looks over to Miroku, he is starting to undress and then sits on the floor, "Yes, we shall go and see for ourselves what is happening, but first...." he pats the ground beside him, "lets, well, ya know...." he says as he raises his eyebrow. Sango does an anime fall, she gets up and knocks Miroku good and hard in the noggin, "How can you even think of doing that, here, now, when something bad is happening, and Naraku....." as she says that name, Miroku pops up, putting his clothes back on, and gets his staff, "Naraku, that bastard, he is going to die again!" Him and Sango leave the hut, Yukato totally has no idea of what just happened but he just sits down by the fire and plays with Kirara.

Kagome is in tears, and, now, Shippou is beside her, comforting her, "It's okay Kagome, there must be a way that we can bring back the old Inuyasha." Inuyasha is still "in" the ground, a few feet infront of them, and Kaeda is standing beside Kagome and Shippou. Just then, Miroku and Sango appear from the forest, "Ah, Kagome, I knew you were here!" Sango says as she lays down Hiraikotsu and runs to hug Kagome. Kagome hears the voice, looks up and has a little smile on her face, for she is seeing an old friend, she gets up and Sango and her hug. "Sango, its good to see you again." Miroku bends down to pick up Hiraikotsu, almost falling over, and carries it and lays it on the side of the hut. "Kagome, I am glad to see you again." Miroku says as he walks towards her. Sango backs away from Kagome, now letting Miroku to have a chance to greet her. He hugs her, also moving his hand down to her butt and rubs it. "Ahh! Miroku, I see you haven't changed one bit!" Kagome says as she slaps Miroku across the face, from behind, Sango, knocks him over the head again. Miroku falls to the ground, dazed.

Kagome giggles, but when she looks over at Inuyasha, she starts to cry again. "What happened to Inuyasha, why is he like his?" Sango asks. Shippou saves Kagome from more tears as he starts to explain what happened, "So we don't know how to turn Inuyasha back to normal." Sango bends down to comfort Kagome, Miroku still lying on the ground, dazed, but just then, Inuyasha starts to move. Everyone looks over towards him, Miroku too, as he gets up, his eyes are even redder that before and his expression is even more deadly.
