Rose Shadow: [cough] I'm sorry for not updating for such a long long long long long long time! I had a... interest... over Final Fantasy Tactics... and it's really hard to find a time to go on my brother's computer.

Inuyasha: 'Interest'?

Rose Shadow: Fine! Obsession!

Inuyasha: And you waited until your brother went to sleep, huh?

Rose Shadow: TT [cough] Maybe. Also... I may make Naraku a teensy eensy itty bitty out of character. I just like it when he cackles! And Kagura's kind of Ooc, too... but... ONWARD! Kukukuku...

---

"Naraku... what in the hell are you plotting now?" Kagura asked.

Naraku calmly turned to his assistant. "A new comer with Inuyasha... kukukuku... She has such a fragile mind... kukukuku... so easy to manipulate... kukukuku..."

"Stop it with that cackling nonsense!" Kagura said impatiently, getting up from her seat by the wide window. "So what do you mean?"

"..." Naraku sighed. "There's a girl who recently joined in traveling with Inuyasha. Her mind is fragile and easy to manipulate, even without embedding a jewel shard in her back... she also has an innocent exterior with a barrier. Kagome cannot sense the shards if that girl possesses the jewel fragments."

"Why not?"

"I do not know... but this might be interesting," Naraku explained. "Kukukuku!"

"Cut that out!" Kagura snapped.

Kaede stepped through the heavy rain. She was in relief she finally reached her hut—shelter. When she stepped in, Kaede stared at the mess.

"Kagome! Inuyasha! Has ye lost their minds?" Kaede said, in shock at the sight. Kagome's extra clothes were tossed aside on the tables and one shirt reached high enough to veil the dim light bulb. Candy for Shippo was scattered on the mat, and some candy wrappers left by Shippo who obviously eaten some candy. The rest of the junk Kagome carried in her backpack was thrown around.

"C'mon! You can sense jewel shards! Why can't you find them?" Inuyasha asked, ignoring Kaede's words.

"I don't know!" Kagome answered in an agitated voice. "Sigh... let's just clean up this mess." Her eyes shifted to the doorway. "Oh, hello Kaede!"

Chii stood up, out of her trance from Naraku. "Chii will help." As Chii stood up, the jewel fragments fell out of her dress pockets. Everybody stared at the jewel fragments on the floor, refusing to believe that Chii had stolen them.

"...Inu...yasha..." Kagome said in a calm voice. "I'm sure that Chii... has a... good explanation for... this..."

Inuyasha growled. "That's it!" He lifted the curtain of the hut. He tried to put on a soft, calm tone. "Would you mind to step outside for a second. . .?" Chii quietly went outside, facing the doorway. "She's a thief," Inuyasha stated low enough so Chii wouldn't eavesdrop. "We've been giving our hospitality to a thief!"

"Inuyasha!" Kagome exclaimed.

"Now..." Sango said, glancing at the doorway. "I'm sure we wouldn't be fooled by this, but we must take drastic measures by carefully watching this girl..."

Inuyasha grumbled, but agreed. "...but she's still a traitor..."

Chii was still standing outside by the doorway, her amber eyes locked on the ground. Her head was full of confusion of what may have happened. She looked up at the hood sheltering her from the heavy rain. She heard a word that struck to her head, though...

'Traitor.'

Closing her eyes, Chii found herself in the usual comfortable darkness with her sister, Freya. "Chi... what is a... 'traitor'?"

"You don't think the portal was hidden in here, do you?" Hideki asked.

Minoru shrugged. "It may be the only reason."

Hideki sighed, hanging his head down. "Now this just sounds stupid..." He laid his textbook flat open on the ground. "It's not like if I stick my foot in here then my foot will be in like another dimension or something... Uh... What the...?" Hideki did in fact stick his foot on the page Chii opened up to and his foot was half way into the book... like a portal.

---

Inuyasha lifted the doorway curtain which allowed Chii to re-enter the hut. A small blast of light appeared and a foot appeared out of no where and kicked Inuyasha on the back of the head.

"Gahhh..."

---

Hideki quickly retreated his foot. "Weird... it felt like I kicked something..."
