Trudging along silently behind her friends, Mell sullenly pulled at the 'girl' clothing Inuyasha had instructed her to where. When she had refused, he enlisted Kagome to find something 'suitable' for her 'idiotic friend' to put on. After rummaging threw Mell's bag, Kagome had finally found a dress stuffed in the corner.

Sighing, Mell looked down at the black dress she wore. it was mid evil in appearance, but had the comforts of modern day. the material was very soft, but thankfully, strong. It laced up in the front and had to be tied in the back. in some areas it shimmered slightly with silver. Mell despised it. true, she loved the color, but it was a dress! you can't run or fight in a dress. Not something you'd want to be wearing in this era.

"Stop pouting wench, as soon as your home you can change." Inuyasha yelled over his shoulder.

"Look at the bright side Mell. With you in a dress and your hair down, you don't look like a guy." Collen stupidly supplied, hoping to help matters.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean Collen?! since you KNOW i never ware dresses are you saying i ALWAYS look like a guy? Your such a fucking ass!" Mell hissed as she narrowed her eyes at him.

"NO! no i just- that is i-" he looked helplessly toward Trinity. Shaking her head, she slowed her pace so she was next to her friend.

"Mell, don't take this out on Collen. i's not his fault. i know your mad at the others, but they were just trying to protect you and-"

"Was HE trying to protect me when he said 'i'd rather kill her then have her help you' to his brother?! that's BS and you know it!"

When she received no answer, she walked a little faster. they were nearly to the well when Inuyasha stopped and started cursing.

"What's wrong?" Kagome demanded as she accidently bumped into him.

"He's back. everyone, stay close-" Inuyasha began to ordered, but stopped talking when a demon attacked him head on. drawing the Tetsusaiga, he easily defected it, but had to defend himself when more began to rush at him and the others.

Looking at collen and Trinity, Mell smiled and lifted up the bottom of her dress, reveling a pair of jean shorts.

"Shall we?" Trinity asked as she cracked the knuckles in her fingers. at everyone's node, they formed a line up. shoulders pressed firmly together, they rushed forward at a group of demons heading strait for Kagome's back.

As they rammed the offending demons, they punched and kicked in unison. when Kagome looked over her shoulder to check on her friends, she stud dumbfounded. they were doing a rather violent version of the can-can!

Just then, more demons descended upon them. unable to fight them all, Inuyasha and company started to back up. only to find they had been surrounded.

"We can't fight them all! Miroku, get the others out of here, NOW!!"

"Hold on, i have an idea." Mell called out to him as she stepped in front of everyone.

"Are you TRYING to get yourself killed?! Get back, if anything happens to you, Kagome would never forgive me!" Inuyasha yelled angrily as he tried to pull Mell back with the others.

Shaking his hand off, Mell started to chant softly under her breath. closing her eyes, she spread her arms out horizontally to the ground, and opened her palms. Chanting louder, more forcefully, she rotated her hands so they now faced the sky. very slowly, she lifted her arms above her head and opened her blazing green eyes. her eyes appeared to have green fire shooting from them, as she stare out at nothing.

As the demons finally reached them, Inuyasha jumped with Tetsusaiga raised above his head to meet them in battle. only to crash head first into an invisible force field.

"What the hell?!" Inuyasha demanded as he rubbed his aching head.

"If you had listened to me, i would have told you what i was doing..." Mell stated bluntly as Kagome rushed forward to help Inuyasha up.

"You mean YOU did this?!" Kagome asked. waving her hand toward the force field. the demons outside the protective barrier were running at it head first. they all bounced off it and would repeat the process.

Collen was the only one who found humor in it at that precise moment. He walk up close to the barrier, pointed at the demons and laughed loudly when they ran at him, and fell to the ground griping there heads.

"Collen, leave the poor deluded creators alone! god, that's like laughing at people who are to fat to get through doors!"

Apparently Collen found humor in that as well, for he began to laugh even harder.

Shaking her head, Mell turned her attention back to Kagome and her half demon. "What did you THINK i was doing, standing out in the middle of an attack?! having a picnic? enjoying the scenery maybe?"

"HEY! leave her alone bitch! No one asked you to interfere! and who the hell would know what you were doing. you've proven time and again that your obviously crazy!" Inuyasha yelled before he could stop himself.

"Inuyasha...." Kagome sighs, stars glittering in her eyes.

"Wh-what are you looking at wench?! i didn't mean anything by that you know! feh, you always take everything so seriously..." Inuyasha bite out, trying to cover his earlier out burst of feelings.

"YOUR SUCH AN ASS!!" both Mell and Trinaty yelled in unison, each giving him a clunk on the head.

"Thanks guys. okay Mell, i get it, you never do anything without a reason. i forgot that about you. anyway, is there any way the barrier can be broken?" Kagome asked seriously, all the playfulness from before gone.

"Only a few. one is me taking it down. another is me moving out of the barrier. that automatically makes the barrier start to deteriorate into nothing. and the last is impossible to accomplish. some one would have to literally FLY over the barrier, which is over twenty feet high, and drop from there strait down the center." Mell stated confidently, crossing her arms across her chest.

Just then, something wrapped around her waist and began lifting her up into the air. she grabbed Trinaty and Collen's hands as she tried to stay grounded.

"Did i mention the possibility of someone pulling me out of the top?!" Mell yelled as she tried to pull the thing that was now cutting into her skin off. looking into her friends faces with eyes glazed with pain, she smile and let go of there hands.

"Don't you fucking give up Mell!! don't you DARE give up!" Trinity yelled as she grabbed Mell's hand harder. Collen quickly followed suit and put Mell's' small hand in a death grip. two seconds later, they were all pulled up into the air with Kagome crying there names out from below them.
