~*~Chapter Six: Kagura and Enter Areala~*~
Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha-tachi, EXCEPT for Areala! YAY! I think she's kinda cute with Shippou. I do not mind if you use her in your stories, but you MUST give ME CREDIT, PLEASE! Thank you. Enjoy. Oh, yeah. Miroku rocks! *stares at everyone* WHAT?! He DOES! Yes, yes he does. . .I wish you were MINE, Miroku-Koishi!!!!! But, sadly, the truth is that I DON'T. . .but I SHALL come back for you! If only I were an InuYasha Anime dudette or whatever, like a Miko, or a Hanyou, or a Kitsune, or a cool Tajiya girl! Ya! Ooh. . .nice boomerang. . .nicer ecchi/monk/hottie/all- mine-guy. . .ya. Life. . .would be good, then. But it's not. Reviews are good, too. But don't forget Orlando Bloom A.K.A. My Sexy Man. I OWN YOU! Not. . .*sniff* I'm gonna go in my corner now. Think happy thoughts. Happy thoughts. . .Happy thoughts. . .
In the shadows of the forest, someone was watching. . .As InuYasha-tachi walked away, Kagura stepped from the shadows. With a flick of her fan, winds blew in all directions, cutting trees in half. She plucked a white feather from her bun, and instantly, the feather expanded in size as she was lifted up into the air, on her way to see her Lord Naraku.
"My Lord, I spotted that girl, as they call, Kagome, and that vile half- breed InuYasha, and the others, the cursed monk and Tajiya girl. I think that they are in search for yet another Shikon Shard."
Kagura looked up at the man who sported the baboon pelt, who was crouching in the shadows.
"Go after them. I do not want you to lose them."
Kagura nodded and ran back from whence she came.
"Miroku? Miroku? Please wake up? Miroku? Oh, it's no use. You try, InuYasha." I walked away, and InuYasha sat down cross-legged next to the monk.
"MIROKU! Wake UP!! Eh, that did no good."
Images were flashing across Miroku's mind. It was of Kagura and Naraku. Naraku was scheming something. . .In the bushes hid Kagura, with her fan withdrawn. Miroku flashed his eyes opened and knocked the Hanyou to the dirt. Huge gusts of wind swept overtop InuYasha's head.
"Nice to see you again, InuYasha. But this will be the last!––"
"––No, THIS will be the last! KAZAANA!"
Miroku opened his Kazaana and trees were swallowed into it. Kagura clicked her fan shut and swarms of venom wasps appeared behind her. Instinctively, he covered the Kazaana back up with the rosary beads. "Fuujin No Mai!" Kagura shouted. (A/N: Fuujin No Mai means Dance of the Wind Blades.) InuYasha blocked her attack with the Wolf's Fang, along with me holding it back with Hiraikotsu. Shippou, seeing that Kagome hadn't brought her bow at the moment, was being useful for once, and transformed himself into a bow. Kagome sweat-dropped. ". . .You're a snail." "Err, YEAH! I am!! Kagome, we REALLY need to help InuYasha, RIGHT NOW!!" Shippou pointed constantly at the fallen Hanyou. His sword turned into the rusted Tessaiga and he sheathed it in its scabbard. ". . .R-Right! Please hit. . ." Kagome pulled back one of her arrows on the "bow" and closed her eyes as it flew, dust gathering in her eyes, which were watering.
Kagura's eyes widened fearfully and flicked her fan in Kagome's direction. "KAGOME!" I screamed. I dashed over to Kagome as quick as possible, pushing her to the side. I felt the wind from Kagura's fan flailing all around me, tearing my demon-exterminator suit. I pulled Hiraikotsu over my face, but it hit me with the wind's power. Looking 'round, I saw that all of my friends had been knocked unconscious, including the stubborn Hanyou, InuYasha. 'Damn.' I thought, my fists clenching to the handle of my giant boomerang and I sprang to my feet, charging at Kagura. She had no time to think and was knocked to the ground. Chuckling, she flew off. "I'm not letting you off that easily!" Kirara hopped to my aid and soared into the sky. I clung to her silky fur, still clenching the handle. Kirara made a soft growl and prodded me. "What is it, Kirara?" She soft-growled again, telling me that Kagura had FIVE Shikon Shards! 'Well, this is MY lucky day.' I could feel the tips of Kagura's giant feather on my ears and I grabbed the end of it. It stopped to a halt. Kagura glared at me. I glared back. Knocking her off the feather to the ground, I grabbed for the Shards in the pockets of her obi and jumped back to the ground. "Forgive me, Lord Naraku. I failed you this time." And with that, she disappeared.

InuYasha awakened, opening his eyes slowly, when something caught his eye... Writing was in the dirt in front of InuYasha. It looked as if somebody dug in it with a stick or something. Anyways, it read:
___________________________________
INUYASHA, CHECK YOUR KIMONO POCKETS
___________________________________
InuYasha cocked his ears, but checked his kimono. His hand felt something thin. Pulling his hand over it, he pulled it out. It was another note. On it scribbled: Inu, I defeated Kagura and received FOUR SHIKON SHARDS. If you need me, you can guess where I am... ~Sango~ InuYasha smiled gleefully and punched his fist high in the air.
Rubbing my arms, which were covered with bruises by the way, I lay next to the hot spring, the steam pouring up into the sky, filling my nostrils. It was early dawn; the sky still violet with tints of pink and orange; creatures tending to their young and hunting for food, before scurrying back to their dens. Yes, dawn was my favorite time in the day. "Sango-Chan?" "Hi, Kagome-Chan." "It's kinda early, dontcha think?" "Eh, I guess. . .Why don't you go back to sleep? You look bushed." "Nah, nah, that's okay." "Nani?" I heard Shippou rustling around in the bushes, looking for mushrooms. A high-pitched kitsune-like voice suddenly sounded. "Shippou, come back over here." Out from the bushes came a young female kitsune. She wore a lavender blouse with a matching violet skirt. She had brownish-orange hair, that was tied with ribbons, darker brown than Shippou's, and had cute chibi eyes; she looked about the same age as Shippou. "Yes, Areala. Bye, Kagome. Bye, Sango. " Shippou scampered to the female kit, who took his arm, and they skipped back into the bushes. "That was. . .odd." I scratched my head. "YAY, YAY, YAY! Shippou's got a girl kitsune friend!" Kagome giggled, lifting her arms into the air. There was a sudden pop, and a recognizable pink balloon with huge eyes appeared below the trees, before turning back into the regular form as Shippou, and Areala's giggle could be heard.
"TELL ME THAT THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING! PLEASE, KAGOME-KOISHI!" InuYasha blurted. Kagome looked at him wide-eyed, and me as well, and she said, "W- What did you. . .just call me, InuYasha-Sama?" "Er, nothing." Kagome looked at him and then me, smiling widely.
"HE called YOU Koishi!" I laughed. "He DOES love you! Just as I thought!" Kagome gave me a stern look, which turned into a grin. "YES!" She slumped down and took a forget-me-not and started picking the petals. (A/N: Okay. Don't sue me. I don't know if forget-me-nots are what you use to pick the petals to see if someone loves you.) "He loves me; He loves me not; He loves me. . ." This went on for about 5 minutes. "HE LOVES ME! Loves ME!" "I love wha—--Kagome?!" InuYasha gasped.
Someone stepped out from the bushes behind Inuyasha. It was Miroku! "MIROKU!" I ran over to him, giving him a big bear hug. *CHIBI MOMENT* *KAWAII!* "S-Sango. . ." He just snuggled with me more, until a wondering hand feeling looking around. . . "HENTAI!" I smacked his hand away and conked him on the head with Hiraikotsu. "It was worth the pain. . ." Miroku sighed with a Hentai grin.
~Okay, I hope you like this chapter. I'm not too sure about myself, because I had a hard time thinking of something to write about. Stupid writer's block! ^^' Please review! Oh, I need some ideas for the next chapter, so could you people give me some? Please? *+InuYashaBishi334+ makes a puppy face with the big adorable chibi eyes*~
