Chapter 4:

The blast had been directed exactly where Sango, Miroku, Rin, and Kagome were standing. Linde was in the blast area but did something to protect herself.

"What was that?" Linde asked them.

Her question was soon answered by a really annoying laugh.

"KU KU KU!!!!" laughed a baboon clad yokai. "Naraku." Inu Yasha and Sesshomaru said at the same time (they looked at each other).

Naraku looked at the elf priestess who was looking up at him. "Who is this?" Naraku asked. "I am Linde Aiwe an elf priestess," Linde answered. "Tell me why you did this." "I merely came for the jewel shards elf." Naraku admitted. "You're not getting any jewel shards." Koga yelled. "I don't think he will anyway." Linde muttered. "What do you mean?" Naraku asked. "You're dealing with more than an elf priestess." Inu Yasha answered. "What?" Naraku asked shocked. "I noticed it at lunch, she's got fangs." Inu Yasha answered. "As well as claws." Koga added.

Kagome was waking up.

"My head." Kagome moaned. "Kagome are you all right?" Koga asked. "F-fine." Kagome stuttered completely amazed.

Kagome looked down.

"Miroku! Rin! Sango!" Kagome cried.

Sango was stirring.

"Who did that?" Sango asked. "Naraku." Koga and Kagome answered at the same time (they look at each other both blushing like mad). "KU KU KU!!!" Naraku laughed. "Would you stop with that laugh cause it really is ticking me off." Inu Yasha ordered. "I merely thought I'd come for the jewel shards that girl has." Naraku said sounding slightly hurt at Inu Yasha had said earlier. "You're not getting any jewel shards." Linde said loudly. "Why not?" Naraku asked. "Cause I'm not going to let you." Inu Yasha answered. "You're not going to lay a finger on Kagome." Koga said angrily.

Sango leapt to her feat.

"C'mon Kirara." Sango said.

Kirara, Sango's cat demon, came forward. She turned into the larger form. Sango jumped onto her back.

"Die Naraku!" Sango cried swing her hiraikotsu and the baboon clad yokai. "Foolish thing to do." Sesshomaru muttered under his breath.

Miroku was moving. He woke up.

"Hmmmm?" Miroku moaned managing to sit up. "Miroku!" Kagome cried happily. "Kagome what was that?" Miroku asked. "It was a blast sent by Naraku." Kagome answered (Koga isn't even paying attention).

Koga was watching Naraku warily just to make sure he wouldn't try anything (such as hurt Kagome).

"Rin c'mon wake up." Kagome pleaded.

Shippou ran over.

"That's a nasty lump on the head." Shippou pointed out. "Miroku take Rin to my mom, she'll know what to do." Kagome order Miroku.

Miroku nodded. He picked up Rin and ran back to Kagome's house. Naraku put a shield around Kagome's house.

"Oh no!" Kagome cried as Miroku tried to get through. "Miroku get out of the way." Linde cried.

She raised a bow with an arrow poised and ready to be fired.

"Linde, you won't be able to break it." Inu Yasha cried. "Face it you won't be able to." Koga said looking shocked. "How can she have such superb archery skills?" Kagome thought to herself. "Naraku isn't a yokai," Linde informed them. "He's a hanyou becuase he had mortal parents as the fugitive Onigumo. He's sorcery should be easy to break with sacred arrows." "Sacred arrows." Kagome repeated in her thoughts.

Linde fired. Miroku had moved long before. The arrow hit the barrier staying stationary inside it. Then the barrier seemed to melt away. Miroku opened the door and ran inside. Sango who had thrown her hiraikotsu at Naraku had managed to hit him but it only got rid of his baboon pelt.

"Time to reveal you priestess." Naraku said.

He threw a sort of violet knife at Linde (not just one). She easily dodged them but the cut up her navy blue cloak. Linde threw it aside. Inu Yasha and Koga gasped. Linde's hair reaced at least to her knees. It was a silvery blonde and her ears weren't like Inu Yasha's at all. They were like Sesshomaru and Koga's ears.

"Well I see you have managed to unmask me." Linde smirked looking Naraku straight in the eyes. "Your eyes, what the ---- is up with your eyes?" Naraku asked. "My eyes," Linde repeated calmly. "My eyes, like my ancestors and parents, are bewitched. If I look someone straight in the eyes, they are rendered completely useless. Meaning you are not able to move you foolish half breed." "You're not full elf either," Naraku said with great difficulty. "You have the ears of a demon." "That's true," Linde smirked. "You see, I'm of an ancient race that is almos completely wiped out. There is only three left. My race of elves had demon blood. I am half demon. But unlike you my parents weren't mere mortals."

Kagome noticed that Linde's hair had begun to braid itself.

"So you're half demon." Naraku repeated. "Exactly," Linde smirked. "I have both shamanic powers and demonic powers. It should be easy to kill you if I put the both of them together. Then Inu Yasha will be happy with you gone. Kikyo should then be able to pass on but I seriously doubt it." "I want to kill him!" Inu Yasha yelled.

Linde looked at him. Naraku took this point to disappear.

"He's gone!" Koga said said. shocked. "You just now realized this?" Jaken asked Koga. "You ask to many ---- questions!" Linde scolded. "Really," Jaken said. "You ask-" "Jaken I really don't think you should start another arguement," Sesshomaru interrupted (still recovering from Kagome's futile attempt to kill him). "I don't want to listen to you die." "What?! Even when I've devoted myself to you?" Jaken asked. "I really think Linde was right," Sesshomaru said more to himself than to Jaken. "He does ask to many ---- questions."

Mrs. Higurashi came out of the house followed closely by Miroku.

"I have good news." Mrs. Higurashi said happily. "What?" Inu Yasha asked. "More to Sesshomaru," Mrs. Higurashi answered. "It's about Rin." "Okay." Sesshomaru said still not coming out of the tree (if Kagome tried to strangle him). "She'll be alright," Mrs. Higurashi said happily. "She just woke up. Rin will be fine in a couple of days." "That is good news." Kagome said. "---- now I have to pay a debt to Inu Yasha's wench's mother." Sesshomaru muttered to himself.

Linde looked at him with a surpressed smile.
