The Legend
By: Kurama

Hey everyone! I'm back with the next chapter. So do me a huge favor and .Read, Review, and enjoy!!!

(Sorry people, I kinda forgot to put a disclaimer in my last chapter.) Disclaimer: I do not own the cast of Inu Yasha. I may have altered the main story, but all the credit goes to the talented Rumiko Takahashi. My characters, are just that, mine. They will interact with the Inu Yasha cast only in my story. If anyone likes my characters and wish to use them in their own story, please ask. I don't mind giving them a part-time job (like I'm trying to find.).

Since I send my story to Fanfiction.net and Mediaminer.org , I'm separating the reviews in those two categories.

Fanfiction.net:

Yorunohe/Night's Fire: Sorry to confuse you. Inu Yasha is a full- demon in this story. I'm not sure yet when Sessh?-maru will come in, but he will at some point.

Animegirl: thanks ^_^

Mediaminer.org:

4u2nv: Thank you for being the first Mediaminer reviewer for my story; and thank you for the criticism, I truly appreciate it.

Chapter 7

-Last chapter When they touched down, Inu Yasha let her off and turned his head to K?ga who looked a little surprised to see her. His surprised look turned into a glare as he and Inu Yasha held a silent glaring match. She started wondering if it had been a good idea coming here after all.

They were all sitting around the fire in the makeshift camp. Everyone was quite, and the tension was thick in the air. All K?ga and Inu Yasha would do, is glare at each other, while the rest of the group had no idea what to do to make them stop.

Inu Yasha broke the silence by stating, "You still have my sword, I see."

K?ga just snorted and replied, "Why would I give it back, when you still have what's mine?"

Inu Yasha growled, and stood up, "Yours?!? You know damn well it belongs to my clan!!!"

K?ga growled back, "Where is it, anyways? Being who you are, you've probably lost it!"

Inu Yasha glared at him, "What do you know? Of course I haven't lost it baka Okami!!"

K?ga's eye narrowed, "well, if you haven't lost it yet, which is a miracle, where is it?"

Inu Yasha gave an annoyed look, "Why in the seven hells would I tell you?"

Kagome had been listening the whole time (as if she had a choice), and was beginning to get a little annoyed with the two of them. She got up and walked in between them and held out her arms, telling them without words to stop. Her gesture got their attention and they momentarily stopped their bickering.

"Alright you two, we can all see you hate each other, so stop trying to prove it." Both of them were rather shocked at her actions but remained quiet.

Kagome turned to K?ga, "Now Kouga, Inu Yasha has shown me hard evidence that the jewel originally belonged to them, so please leave it be. Secondly, the sword also belongs to him, and you should give it back."

K?ga did not look happy about this at all, and Inu Yasha had a smirk on his face. The smirk dimmed a little when Kagome turned to him "Stop looking so arrogant, I'm only doing this because they belong to you."

Inu Yasha glared at her and his voice dripped with sarcasm, "gee, you're so kind."

Kagome just smiled and handed the sword to him that she'd gotten from K?ga, and looked at both of them, "well, now that all that's settled, let's try to get along!"

When she didn't get a response from either of them she took it as their agreement. She then smacked her hands together, "I think that we should now introduce everyone, so that there isn't any questions about who is who!"

The group (minus K?ga and Inu Yasha) was very eager to change the mood, so they agreed.

Miroku stood up and bowed, "My name is Miroku and I am a Buddhist monk."

Sango (who sat next to him) stood up next, "I'm Sango, a demon exterminator."

This continued until everyone had been introduced. Afterwards there was chatter among the group, besides Inu Yasha and K?ga, who had their backs turned from each other and neither would talk to anyone.

Inu Yasha suddenly stood up and turned to Hiroshi, "Hiroshi, did you make sure to tell Sessh?-maru that we would be gone?"

Hiroshi's eyes widened and his face paled "oops."

Inu Yasha sighed and shook his head "Sessh?-maru's gonna be pissed."

The rest of the group looked at them curiously (minus Ranma and K?ga), and Kagome spoke up "Who's Sessh?-maru?"

Inu Yasha looked over at her, "He's my half-brother, and leader of our clan. It wasn't necessary for you to meet him, since the jewel was none of his concern. But he makes a big deal about telling him when we're leaving, so he's going to be mad." Inu Yasha looked up in the sky, and sure enough two figures were heading their way.

Inu Yasha sighed, "Here they come."

Hiroshi groaned hearing that. Ranma looked calm and walked over to Inu Yasha and whispered softly so the others wouldn't hear. "Inu Yasha, it shouldn't be too bad. We've gone out many times without telling Sessh?- maru-sama."

Inu Yasha nodded his head, "I'm more worried about Hiroshi; he's not exactly allowed to leave the cave."

Ranma gave a small nod and looked back up at the sky, "well, at least he sent the twins."

Inu Yasha gave a small chuckle, "not really, at times they're as bad as he is."

The twins landed and didn't look very happy to be there. They both had long white hair, and both had a purple dot on their foreheads. They both wore outfits much like Inu Yasha's but one wore a white one, while the other wore a pale blue. The one in blue walked over to Inu Yasha shot him a glare, "I don't believe you informed your lord-brother that you would be leaving."

Inu Yasha snorted, "It had to do with the jewel Rizu, and if my memory hasn't failed me, anything that deals with the jewel is not of his concern."

The other twin walked up next to the first, "that still doesn't excuse you from reporting to him."

Inu Yasha growled loudly, "Mizu, you do realize who you are speaking to."

Mizu fell silent at Inu Yasha's words but didn't leave. "I'm only giving you Sesshou-maru-sama's message. I meant no disrespect."

The twins then prepared to leave and Mizu shouted, "Just don't forget to inform him next time."

After they left K?ga was the first to look down and from the corner of his eye, he noticed something around Kagome's neck. On impulse he grabbed it, startling Kagome and getting Inu Yasha's attention. K?ga's eyes widened when he realized just what he was holding. The only thought going through his mind at that point was, 'why does she have it?!?!?'

I finally finished this, it took me a little while, but I managed to do it!!! So let me know if you liked it or not, flames are ok too!! ~~~~Kurama
