Sorry people, my father's been using the computer for a while, that's why I
haven't updated in so long, but hey, it was only for the weekend, no harm
done, right? On with the story!
Chapter 10: Naraku's Gambit (I was going to say something funny, and it involved a cookie, a puppy, and Godzilla, but I completely forgot what it was. Damn.)
After using biological weapons on the Surprisingly Powerful Horde, Kaiba and Shippo had chosen a completely random tunnel in the hope that they would find their "friends," as Kaiba would say. Luckily for them that narrative causality was, as always, on their side, and because of it, Yugi, Joey, Sango, Miroku, InuYasha, and Kagome had also chosen the same completely random tunnel that, in a completely random way connected with the tunnel that Kaiba and Shippo had randomly chosen. (A/N that is a lot of random happenings, so maybe now you know just how powerful a force narrative causality is). The problem of course, lay in the fact that they were all on opposite sides of the same cavern, and as caverns usually are, they had no idea how close they really were to each other.
"HELLO! IS ANYBODY IN HERE? IF THERE IS, COULD YOU TELL US WHERE YOU ARE?!" some people are just naturally stupid.
"Joey!"
"YEAH! WE ARE OVER HERE!"
"InuYasha!"
"WHERE IS "HERE?" I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING!"
"Shippo!"
Like Joey, InuYasha, and Shippo. As our heroes groped vainly in the dark-
SMACK!
"AHHHH! SANGO! I'M SORRY, I CAN'T SEE YOU!"
"THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN FEEL ME EITHER!"
POW!
"OKAY! I'LL STOP GROPING!"
"YOU'D BETTER!"
"WILL YOU ALL JUST SHUT UP?! I HAVE TO ANNOUNCE MY EVIL PLAN FOR DESTROYING YOU NOW! IT'S A REALLY GOOD PLAN, TOO!"
"WHAT WAS THAT?! WHO'S THERE?!"
"Urrrgh, NARAKU, LIGHTS ON, PLEASE!"
"NARAKU?! WHERE IS HE?! COME ON! SHOW YOURSELF! COWARD!"
Suddenly, imagine a split-screen showing the faces of InuYasha, Miroku, Joey, and Shippo as the light gets turned on. Now imagine the pupils getting very, very small. Now imagine the screams of pain and panic (A/N not the ones from that gods-awful "Hercules" Disney movie).
"AH-AH-AH! MY EYES! THEY ARE BLIND! AHHHHHH!!"
"MY EYES! MY EYES! THEY BURN IN THEIR SOCKETS! AHHHH!!"
"GOOD GOD! WHAT INSIDIOUS FIEND COULD DO SUCH A THING?!"
"I CAN SEE THE INSIDE OF MY SKULL! IT'S KINDA COOL, BUT IN A REALLY PAINFUL WAY!"
"Idiots. It's called "closing your eyes!" it's actually quite simple, really!" explained Kagome, who, along with Sango and Yugi, had managed to close their eyes just before the explosion of light, thus preventing such pain as her friends were now suffering. After several more minutes of listening to their friends whine, whimper and scream, everyone was finally able to look up at their enemies, one: the ever present Naraku, with a flowing robe made of the pelt of a white baboon, the other: a large brutish figure in a purple robe hemmed with white that left his face covered in shadow and that covered his arms and legs completely.
"The girl is correct. Not that it will save you, especially not against this!" screamed the robed mystery figure, as more light uncovered a previously hidden shape that was about five stories tall, that he and Naraku had been standing on.
"Oh, crap." Said Shippo.
"Now you're learning." Mentioned Kaiba.
***************************
"Well. This is slightly interesting. I certainly my brother doesn't get his ass kicked *too* hard this time. I do hope he'll see the error of his ways, not that a little tough love won't be fun to watch."
Whoa. Another new voice in the dark. Could this be the "bitch" that our original Voice in the Dark complained about way back in chapter 2? Well. . . probably. But you should still keep reading. I command it. AND YOU MUST OBEY! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Pretty please?
