Celestial Shimmer: Ok. Only because my friends are driving me insane saying that I should put a Disclaimer on every chapter, I'm going to. I don't see why though, it's a fan fiction! Fan the word Fan means that I don't own the characters! I wish that I owned Sesshomaru, though. That would be nice. Note also that this is a more serious chapter, well kind of.
Celestial Shimmer/Disclaimer: *sighs* I don't own any of the characters except the ones I made up (Namida, Yoru, Shinsetsu, Akaineko, Sorayu, Suwaru, and Yasai) There I'm done. *Stomps off mumbling profanities*

Chapter Five
"The Potion's True Purpose"
Kouga woke up to having the world look oddly bigger, and his clothes were too big. To make matters worse, everyone was looking at him strangely. Strangely meaning their eyes wide and jaws dropped.
"What is everyone looking at? What the hell?! Why's my voice so damn high?!" Kouga said his voice was oddly high.
"Now, Kouga, you shouldn't be cussing like that at your age." Suwaru said as everyone around her giggled and snickered as quiet as they could.
"What the hell do you mean?! I'm... I'm... I forget my age, but I'm a hell of a lot older that you!!" Kouga snapped.
Akaineko, Shinsetsu, and Namida looked through their costumes that were on the floor. (Except Shinsetsu's) and pulled out a compact. (A.k.a little mirror that most girls have to preen themselves with. I have one!)
"Holy Shit!! Kouga shouted.
"Kouga!" Shinsetsu said sternly.
"So...Who is going to wash his mouth out with soap?!" Namida asked turning to the group.
Everyone looked at Akaineko.
"Alright," She walked over to her InuYasha costume in the corner of the hut and pulled out liquid soap. "This is the only stuff I have. Just don't swallow this." She walked towards Kouga.
Kouga looked at her and at the soap. He tried to scramble to his feet but Shinsetsu, Yoru, and Namida talked him.
"You are going to take your punishment like a man!" Shinsetsu said as she and the other two held him down.
"Stop cussing and we'll stop." Namida slapped Kouga across the face putting him in a small daze. "It's that simple!"
"Kouga were you like this as a ki- wait, I guess we are finding out the answer to that question first hand." Yoru remarked sarcastically.
They managed to get it done with a lot of cussing, hitting, and a very large amount of chasing around the hut. By the time they finished Kouga was spitting soap out of his mouth.
"Don't you ever do that again, bi..." Kouga stopped himself from cussing at the sight of Namida, Shinsetsu, and Yoru sanding and Akaineko reaching for the soap.
Kaede had watched the entire thing, and was now utterly disgusted. As was Sesshomaru, InuYasha, Yasai, Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and poor Sorayu was in tears.
"Why did that happen, Kouga becoming younger and all?" Sango wondered.
"Who knows?" Namida said.
"I do." Naraku said.
Everyone looked at him confused.
Naraku sighed, *Confession time* he thought. "I saw all the signs. Kouga had too much of the gases given off by the potion."
"I breathed in some... and I... never mind." Sesshomaru said.
"What?" Namida asked him.
"I was going to say that I was feeling fine, but now I feeling a little queasy myself." He said as he sat down.
"Naraku, you look shorter." Akaineko said.
"I also breathed in too much. Kouga is now about the age of seven." Naraku said.
"That's my age Sorayu said. (Sorry about this. Namida age 17. Yoru age 17, three months younger that Namida, Akaineko age 17, two months younger that Yoru, Suwaru age 16, Shinsetsu between 15 and 16, and Sorayu is 7)
"Why did I get younger and everyone else turned into demons? They were in the cloud of gases how come they still exist?" Kouga asked.
"Because you were born a demon. The purpose of the potion is..." Naraku started.
"To turn humans into demons, right?" Akaineko interrupted.
"No, wench." Naraku snapped. "It's to turn us back into what we were originally."
"By that you mean?" Shinsetsu asked.
"There will be a question and answer period after the history lesson!" Yoru snapped.
"Thank you." Naraku said, "Anyway, long ago all humans were demons. Actually there weren't any humans."
"Then how did humans show up?" Shinsetsu asked.
"I'm getting there." Naraku snapped. "Over the years as some of the demons became more advanced they didn't need their demonic powers as much. They didn't loose their powers; more like forgot how to use them
"The some of the demons didn't like this. They formed a group that was against the weaker demons. They also thought that they were unworthy to wear the name of Demon, so they gave them another name, Human. The Demons found the newly named Humans to be weak and useless.
"The Humans didn't approve of this. Even though they could no longer use their powers they thought that they should still have the Demon name. The Humans had to make weapons to defend against the occasional demon attack. The Demons kept saying that if they didn't spend all that time working on something 'important' they wouldn't have lost so many Humans, because the Humans could have defended themselves with their old powers.
"That spurred the Human Demon rivalry. Now some Demons still believe that Humans are Demons that can't use their powers because they have forgotten how. That is why I developed the potion to see if it was true."
There was a long, shocked silence that followed after the history lesson. No one spoke for a very long time.
Finally Sango noticed Sesshomaru had also gotten younger and so had Naraku. "Wow, so this is what you two looked like as teenagers."
"Mew!" Kirara said and leaped at Naraku and started playing with his hair.
Sango's comment brought everyone out of their shocked silence.
"Sesshomaru, you look about 17 years old!" Namida said.
"So we have been transformed into kids because...?" Kouga was still confused.
"Because you and I were born demons so the potion couldn't make us turn into demons. It therefore made us younger. Besides I'm a teen, unlike you, Shorty!" Sesshomaru said he was now only an inch or two taller than Namida, which would make him about 5'8" or 5'9".
Naraku also looked like a teenager. Eighteen years old at max. He was also getting annoyed with Kirara playing with his hair the same way she would play with a mouse.
While everyone was focused on Naraku trying to pin or scare Kirara, Miroku walked up behind Akaineko. His hand went out and squeezed her ass. Her eyes went horribly wide.
"MIROKU! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Shinsetsu shouted at him.
Miroku let go of Akaineko's ass. "What I do. Being a perverted monk. I grope people." He explained calmly.
"Chop, chop, chop, chop, Miroku's head is gonna' drop." Namida and Yoru sang in unison.
Akaineko was also chanting the song along with them only hers was "Chop, chop, chop, chop, Miroku's balls are gonna' drop."
Sesshomaru and Kouga were holding Naraku back from attacking Miroku. Sesshomaru held Naraku's arms firmly behind his back, while Kouga latched himself to Naraku's leg and wouldn't let go.
Shinsetsu was slowly stalking towards Miroku, she was obviously mad.
"I-I don't u-u-understand why you are mad..." Miroku stammered.
Shinsetsu continued walking at him, her hands clenched into fists. "How dare you!"
Namida leaned her head closer to Yoru and Akaineko. "She's jealous, can you tell?
Yoru nodded.
Akaineko looked at her, "Yep. She'll never admit it though."
"Please stop, Shinsetsu. I have an idea that I think you will like." Miroku lowered his voice so that no one but Shinsetsu could hear him.
Shinsetsu stopped, "What?" she said raising an eyebrow.
"You ask Yoru to bear your child and I'll ask Namida. At the same time." He said seeing that he was out of danger.
Shinsetsu smiled, Yoru and Namida often said things at the same time so it would be amusing to see a synchronized slap. "That could be fun."
They were watching Shinsetsu about to beat Miroku to a bloody pulp, (Oh yeah, real pretty picture there.) up until Miroku lowered his voice then they all started making conversation.
Shinsetsu walked up next to Yoru and Miroku next to Namida. No one thought much of it. They both looked at each other and nodded. Shinsetsu got on one knee as did Miroku. By now they had gotten everyone's attention.
At the same time they said, "Will you bear my child?"
Namida was shocked and Yoru was pissed.
SLAP!!! They both slapped the person in front of them as hard as they could. The only difference was that Namida and Sesshomaru said "Not only no, but HELL NO!" at the same time.
Soon after that Kaede fed them lunch and the left the hut after that. When the little squirrel started hissing and foaming at the mouth at the same time Kagome detected a shard a large freakish looking walked out of the forest.
InuYasha lunged forward with Tetsaiga. He was about to attack when Namida shouted at him to come back.
"What?!" He said walking back to the group.
"Can I defeat it?" Namida asked.
Everyone looked at her shocked.
InuYasha laughed. "Ha! You! Defeat that!"
She glared at him, "Yes! Me!"
When he saw that she was serious he stopped laughing, "Fine but don't expect me to save your ass."
She smiled and walked forward. The demon, now just noticing the group, wasted no time attacking. She dodged the attack and held her hand out. That blue/green glow flew from her claw tips. Everyone was shocked to see that large, powerful looking, demon melt.
She smiled as she walked towards the group. "How was that, InuYasha?"

"Not bad." InuYasha said with a glare.
Kagome ran to pick up the shard. She walked back to the group with a shocked look on her face. "InuYasha! The shard is fake! It won't purify!"
"Is that possible?" InuYasha said.
The shard unexpectedly started to glow. The glow got brighter and brighter until it blinded everyone. For a moment it felt like they were falling and falling fast. They hit something and blacked out.
