**********************More Changes and a Pissed Sango**********************
I moaned slightly as I opened my eyes, thinking of all the ways there were to kill an undead priestess.
"Sango?" I looked at Kagome, whose face was creased in worry. "Are you alright? Do you feel any sort of pain?" I groaned and blinked, wondering why my vision suddenly seemed so much sharper.
"My head feels like something's beating on it from the inside and my whole body's stiff, but besides that, no."
"No chest pains? No changes in your thought patterns?" Yakuso asked urgently
"Nothing," They all looked relieved.
"Good. The stiffness and the headache are normal. If you were having chest pains we'd have a problem." Kaede said.
"Rin's head hurts, too," The little girl said with a pout in her voice. I flinched at her volume. Why the hell did she have to yell?
"Don't worry, Rin. You'll feel better soon," Kagome soothed the little girl. "In the mean time, there's something you two should see." Kagome turned back to me with a mirror in her hands. Biting her lip, she turned the mirror so we could see our reflections.
But they weren't our reflections. They couldn't be. Because our ears weren't pointed, we didn't have fangs and markings all over our faces, Rin's eyes were brown, not amber and my eyes weren't silver. Rin Didn't have a fluffy tail and I didn't have a long, sleek one. So nope, not us.
"Kikyou used a Nakusu spell on you. It can change humans into demons and demons into humans. Normally, it takes the life of the miko that casts the spell, but since Kikyou wasn't alive to begin with..." Shit.
There was a loud scream. It took me a second to realize it was coming from me. When I did, I shut my mouth, embarrassed. It was too late, however as everyone who wasn't in the room already burst through the opening.
And stopped dead, staring.
I blushed. Rin looked at them curiously before spotting Sessho-maru.
"Sessho-maru-sama!" she yelled, running to hug his leg. He stared at her with open surprise on his face. (AN; GASP!!! Sessho-maru showed an emotion!!! Next InuYasha will start acting civilized. ^-^)
"Miko," Sessho-maru growled, "What has happened to my ward?" Rin chirped up before Kagome could open her mouth.
"The scary lady shot Rin with a spell and Rin got hurt. Then the pretty fox lady helped Rin and Rin woke up a demon!" Sessho-maru scowled at Kagome, who sighed and repeated what she told us while we were looking at our reflections.
"We needed to get them back here before the spell could seep to their brains, turning them into something similar to InuYasha when his demon blood overtakes him. The physical changes were too late to stop and we figured their minds where the more important things to save. They're still the same, only with a few new abilities."
"How come Rin's an inu and Sango a neko?" Shippo pipped up, "If it's the same spell, it should turn them into the same demon, right?"
"No, the spell latches onto your most basic personality traits and changes you into the youkai that fits it," Kurama sighed.
"Then it makes since... though it only serves to complicate things further,"
"We know," Yakuso said, frowning.
"But we can work around it," Kagome assured him hastily.
"I didn't know the breed was even around in this era..." Yari muttered to herself.
"They weren't. She's probably the first," Botan added. I felt myself fuming.
"MIND SHARING WITH THE REST OF THE CLASS!!!" I yelled at them. Kagome winced.
"I've really got to stop using terms from the present here..."
"What is she?" InuYasha demanded, pointing at me. "I've never seen a neko like that."
"... She's a Henka Neko. They're a very rare and powerful race of youkai. Unfortunately, their power comes with a catch,"
"Which is...?" I said, worry knotting my gut.
"Henka Nekos must be bound to a demon of ruling blood from the day they are born until they die," Hiei said from his spot against the wall.
...
"WWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!" I cringed at my own yell.
"Otherwise, their powers eat them from the inside out." Suddenly I was very, VERY dizzy...
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!! Don't faint on us!!!"
"So basically, we have to find a royal youkai who Sango won't mind being around for the rest of her life and who won't mind having a Hanka Neko around for the rest of THEIR life in the next twenty four hours." Kagome sighed. Everyone stared at her. "What?"
"How do you get the binding thing to work?" I asked.
"You've just got to acknowledge the royal youkai you serve," Kurama said, a small smile playing at his lips, "If the royal youkai accepts your aid, you will bear his... or her... mark until either of you die. The mark will be circled in the ruling youkai's personal marking color," I nodded and set to work.
"But we don't even have-!" Kagome's protest was cut short.
'A gray star circled in blue? Where did that come from? Wait a sec... isn't that...' Kagome's eyes widened. As did mine as I realized I was HEARING her THOUGHTS!!!
"SANGO!!!" I wondered what the chances of her forgetting about this and not yelling my poor, sensitive ears out were. "No, I'm not forgetting this and tough cookies about your ears!!! You brought this upon yourself!!!" Shoot. The telepathy thing worked both ways...
"Hehehe..." I laughed meekly, "Come on, Kagome, it's not THAT bad and you and Sessho-maru are the only ruling youkais I know,"
"You could have at least ASKED me!!!!!!!!!"
"But you would have said no,"
'Would not.' Kagome thought sulkily.
'Would too,'
'Would not!'
"Would too!'
"WOULD NOT!!!" everyone jumped at the volume of Kagome's voice. Well, everyone except Hiei.
'Even as a neko she's just a baka ningen,' He thought emotionlessly.
"What was that!" I said glaring at him. His eyes widened in surprise, then narrowed to a glare.
"Stay out of my mind, neko," He growled.
"Hmm... Doesn't THAT sound familiar!" He growled again, his glare intensifying.
\\This should be good...\\ my head jerked around in surprise at the unfamiliar voice.
"What the he-eck!" I said, changing my wording around to something Kagome always said when I saw all the children looking at me curiously, "Who in the world was that?!"
\\... SHE CAN HEAR ME?!?!?!?!?!\\
"Yes, now who exactly are you?!" I demanded, while everyone But Kurama and Hiei looked at me like I'd grown three heads. Kurama was looking at me in shocked horror and Hiei in shocked amusement. Then Hiei started to chuckle.
"Okay I think the stress of the transformation is starting to take it's toll on her," Yusuke said. I scowled at him.
"Look for some weird reason I can hear thoughts and there's someone I've never heard before talking!" everyone was still looking at me like I was crazy.
"She can hear Youko," Hiei said emotionlessly. Kagome, Yusuke, Keiko, Botan and Kuwabara's faces immediately cleared up.
"Really? That's got to be interesting." Botan said cheerfully.
"Who's Youko?" InuYasha asked puzzled. Yari and Yakuso frowned.
"The only Youko I've ever heard of is the great thief, but he was supposed to have died..." Yari muttered. Now Kuwabara and Yusuke started snickering, Kagome shook her head and Kurama turned an odd red color.
\\They actually think I'd die that easily?"\\ the odd voice scoffed. I still couldn't tell who it was coming from.
"A thief?" Miroku said, frowning in question.
"Yep. One hell of a good one, too," Yari said with sparkling eyes.
"And he was supposed to be handsome as well," Yakuso said blushing.
\\Kagome wasn't kidding, these two are as bad as those girls that are always falling over themselves to be around you!\\ I almost laughed at the horror in his voice. Then it hit me.
"Yari?" I asked, keeping my face straight. "Youko wouldn't have happened to have been a kitsune, would he?"
"Yeah. A silver kitsune," Yari said frowning. "His full name was Youko Kur-" then she got this look on her face like something just hit her. Both she and Yakuso turned to Kurama, who flinched. A second later, they were both inches away from his face.
"YOU'RE YOUKO KURAMA!"
"How come you didn't tell us?!"
"I thought what you did you lord Omosa was ingenuous! Old fart still whines about it..."
\\This one's YOUR fault, Youko!\\
\\Hey! You've been in this situation hundreds of times without my help!\\
\\Stop grumbling and help me think of a way out of this!\\ Kurama spared Kagome a pleading glance, since all his own companions were rolling with laugher. Except for Mr. I'm-too-good-to-smile, who was just smirking. Lucky for the ex-thief, Kagome took pity on him.
"Yari, you and Botan forgot her katana when you came here. You'd better go get it before someone takes it or one of the village children find it. Yakuso, didn't you promise to teach the boys?" Both vixens blinked and started their tasks.
\\See? I knew there was a reason I like her!\\ I grinned.
"Now what's going on?" Kagome demanded.
"Sango has received all the same powers as you." Kurama explained.
"But I can't hear thoughts! Well, at least I couldn't before Sango did this and even then I can only hear Sango's,"
"Sango's powers are made to awakened most of your sleeping powers. They also adapt quickly. You should catch up to Sango before the night's over."
\\Pity I have to wait so long,\\ Youko sighed mournfully. \\There's so much I want to say to her,\\
"I can still hear you," I warned, narrowing my eyes. Kurama blanched and Hiei snickered slightly.
\\So? Unlike you two, I don't have a problem showing my affections,\\
"WHAT THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!!!!" I yelled, sitting up and fighting a blush.
\\Well, You and the jiganshi over there have feeling for each other that you refuse to admit.\\ I glared at Kurama, fighting a blush. Why did everyone think that? I did NOT have a crush on the creep!
...At least, I don't THINK I do...
Kagome giggled across the room. Shit! The telepathy thing!
'Kagome, if you repeat that thought to ANYONE I'll kill you with my bare hands!' "Kurama, how do you live with something that annoying in your head?!"
"Barely," Kurama replied, smiling in amusement.
\\Hey! Some alter ego YOU are!!!\\
\\I'm not the one sticking his nose where it doesn't belong, Youko.\\
\\I'm a thief. We're SUPPOSED to stick our noses where they don't belong!\\
"He's got a point there," I smirked at the kitsune.
"Don't encourage him," I shook my head and brushed a hand against the table-
-to see it cleaved into two, neat halves. I blinked at the former table, then down at my claws.
"Opps."
"Maybe you should learn how to control your new body and powers before you hurt someone," Kagome said, staring at the table. The others nodded.
"Well, who's gonna teach me?!" I asked irritably, "Kagome, Yakuso, Yari and InuYasha are all busy, The kits are all busy, Kurama's busy. Who's left to teach me?" Everyone looked towards Hiei. "Oh, no!"
"I refuse." Training with Hiei at night without anyone's knowledge was okay, but the girls would torture me if I train with Hiei publicly.
"There's no way in hell I'm gonna learn this stuff from that creep!" Kagome smiled sweetly, and I gulped. I'd only seen that false sugary sweet look once before, and only one word came to mind now.
Uh-oh...
************************************************************************
Servant's pressed themselves against the wall, in an attempt to stay out of the raging general's way.
"GANKO!!!" He bellowed as he stormed down the castle's long hallways. It was more that obvious that the Kitsune was royally pissed at his younger brother, though the reason could only be guessed at.
Reikoku burst through a doorway, and kept going. His you-ki started flaring around him.
"GANKO!!!"
He burst though to his second in command's office. Freezing at what he saw...
