*Author Notes: Oh no, Erika, he is not gone, not yet. Ashi-chan has not escaped yet. Though you may find that if you read the chapter. I need you to contact me however, such as with an email, I would like you to help me with something…*
Seproth: Damn your knowledge of animes. Yea, he's in there, later.
Chapter 17:
The Good, the Bad, and the Perverted
"Who do you think he is?" Kagome asked, bewildered.
Cloud shrugged.
"No idea. But hey, Kagome, at least you know you're the 'purest of mortals'."
"Purest of mortals?"
"Yea. Like it said, 'only the purest of mortals can touch the curse in him'. You free'd him, what else matters?"
She didn't say anything. There was a groan from the man, and he seemed to wake up. He opened his eyes. He raised his hands to look at them.
"Am I…free?"
He spun around, grabbed his staff, and saw the small group all looking at him. His eyes focused in on Kagome. He swam slowly toward her and looked her in the eye. She backed off a bit.
He said a single word.
"Goddess."
That was, of course, right before his right hand found a way to her butt. Kagome did the first thing that came to mind.
"PERVERT!"
She slapped him, knocking him away from her. Kenshin's low voice came from behind her.
"Cursed with perversion I see."
Inuyasha appeared in front of her, protectively. The houshi floated back to them.
"Please calm down, I am a monk."
***
Kagome kept her distance from the monk as he told them his story.
"I lived in a time of darkness, where demons covered the land and killed the people. I was searching for the demon that killed my father, and when I found him, I fought with him. I was weak, just an arrogant teenager. He cursed me, and trapped me in time, letting the portals be fueled by my curse. In a way, I can control the rip in time, not that I could back then, anyway. As people stumbled upon the portals, they were sucked into time, and stayed there, as they flew toward the end of time. I could not go there, and was tormented as each person died. The pain was horrendous. I have been here too long to remember. The curse will eventually swallow me whole if I ever escape this place. I may have a few years if I ever get out, but that will be it."
He looked sad.
"What was your original time?"
He shrugged.
"Feudal Japan."
Inuyasha shrugged.
"Us too. Any way you can get us out of here?"
Miroku nodded.
"I can drop you guys off at whatever time we're currently passing or you can wait, and die at the end of time, like I plan to do."
"You're just going to die?"
Miroku shrugged.
"I'll die anyway. I could leave if I wanted too, now, but what's the point."
"You might get your chance to kill the demon who imprisoned you."
Miroku let out a small laugh.
"Naraku is too strong. I'm no chance, even if I would take the chance to fight him if I could."
Silence fell over the group, before Inuyasha broke it.
"Did you say Naraku?"
Miroku nodded.
"Naraku that bastard. When I find him, I'll tear him apart!"
Miroku was surprised.
"Huh?"
Cloud filled him in.
"We have some unfinished business with him ourselves. You wanted a shot at him? You got a team."
Miroku looked stunned.
"Are you guys crazy? I've had pictures come to me in my 'sleep'. He is more powerful than anyone can ever imagine."
The entire group shrugged.
"So?" They all said at once.
"You guys are crazy. You know that?"
Cloud grinned.
"Damn right."
"As long as you all know that now, I'm in, but one thing before we go."
Cloud shrugged. Kagome smiled. Kenshin smiled. Inuyasha kept his emotionless expression. Miroku smiled.
"What?"
Miroku turned to Kagome and grasped one of her hands.
"Will you bare my child?"
***
"Are you ready now?
Miroku tried to concentrate on his hand while ignoring the bumps on his head. His previous statement had earned him a few wacks, a slap, and a bunch of distrust from the only girl in the group. He sighed again. He felt an energy though, and he knew he was ready.
"All right. I think I got it."
"Whada ya mean, you think?" Inuyasha yelled.
Miroku ignored him. A ball of black appeared in his right hand. He raised it and threw it forward into time. The ball exploded. Making a wall of black. The group hit it and fell through. Miroku couldn't see anything, but then, he felt the cold thud of metal, and he opened his eyes to see himself on firm ground again. It was dark and cold. He here a grunt from behind him as Inuyasha appeared. He looked back. A large blue portal was spewing people out of it. Kenshin came through, landed and rolled to his feet, avoiding Inuyasha who was lying on the ground. Cloud came through, apparently sleeping, rolled to the wall and leaned against it, and never changed his posture. Kagome fell through, and landed on Inuyasha's stomach.
"Hey wench! Get off of me!"
She sat up, still sitting on his back.
"Hey, where are we?"
Miroku shook his head.
"I really don't know. I wasn't looking when I stopped the tunnel."
"You stopped it?"
"Basically, the exit of the tunnel is now this place in this time. No one else will fall through and die."
"But where are we?"
"Like I said, I don't know."
Cloud in the corner huffed.
"Hey, don't worry about it. By any chance, we should find a friend around him somewhere."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Kagome asked.
Cloud pointed to another corner. There was a piece of cloth on the ground. It was Ashitaka's mask.
"He's been here. That's why we couldn't find em."
Kagome nodded slowly. Miroku piped up.
"Who's Ashitaka?"
Cloud answered him.
"Some guy we just met. Mysterious really. Good fighter though."
"Creepy." Miroku said.
"Its really cold around here!" Kagome huffed. Then something hit her. Hit her hard.
"I left my bag back in the clearing!"
***
Back in the clearing, a lone book bag sits by a dying fire. Suddenly a cloud of smoke can be seen coming toward the camp. Out of it runs a hyper and sugar-high girl name Erika. Behind her, D.g. and Brat follow.
"Where'd he go? I was sure he escaped this way."
Brat sighed.
"Finally, good for him. Let him go Erika."
"NOOOOOOO! HES MINE! JACK SAID HE WAS MINE!"
D.g. sighed, then noticed something.
"Hey, whys that pool glowing?"
*Author notes: to clear thing up, Miroku did not destroy the portal, he just created an exit for it. Also, its one way, no going back through. Where is our group now? What time are they in? How can they get back to the time they know and love? Will they ever get back home? Remember D. g., I need you to email me. My adress is in my profile. I NEED your help.*
