Wendy-chan's back! I'm sorry I haven't updated in a very long time, but I was working on original fiction and this story kind of just trailed off for a bit. But no fear! Because I was watching this anime music video where Kikyo kisses Inuyasha and it made the blood boil in my veins! So I am going to torture her profusely in later chapters! Muahahaha! Kikyo lovers, don't read if you don't want to see her subject to the worst kind of torture possible!

Chapter 15
Inuyasha and crew's POV
"Naraku's put up a new barrier, then," said Miroku.
"I'll cut through it with the Red Tetsusaiga!" growled Inuyasha. "And we'll find the kid and get the hell out!"
Naraku's Castle, that night
Kami sat on the wooden floor and looked out the window. Despite Naraku's hazy aura, she could make out thousands of stars and the bright tail of a comet… much like the Millennium Comet back home in Hoenn. She sighed and curled her fist around the Pokeball. And blinked. It felt… warm… and full of energy. And… did it glow slightly?
Naraku stood in his dark corner. He could also feel the energy pulsating from the orb. Then the creature inside the ball must be most active on the night of a comet… how interesting.
The Pokeball was indeed glowing. The light enveloped both Kami and Akiro, a blinding white light that shone with the intensity of a thousand suns. Slowly… very slowly… the Pokeball opened.
Kami gasped. Her mother had said the Pokeball would open when it wanted to… but of all the times to do it… now!
The Pokemon that floated out of the Pokeball with its eyes closed was unlike any Kami had ever seen before. It had a star-shaped head and a small white body. Closed on its chest was an enormous eye. She gasped. Yes, she had seen it, but only in ancient carvings and picture books on legendary Pokemon. It was… a Jirachi!
Kikyo also sensed the extreme outburst of power radiate from the silver orb. She ran down the hallway of Naraku's castle to see. When she reached the room where Kami was kept and peeped between the shoji screens, she saw the girl holding onto a small star-shaped creature and giggling, along with the boy Naraku appointed to guard her. Kami was saying something. Kikyo strained to hear. "…the seven nights the Millennium Comet appears in the skies over Hoenn is when Jirachi awakens. I guess it was either the comet that appeared in this world, or the Millennium Comet has shown itself in my own world and it was drawn to that source of power over time and space."
"So what does this creature do?" asked Akiro, twitching his pointy ears.
"They say it can grant all kinds of wishes, but to do so, you've gotta become Jirachi's friend," explained Kami.
Become its friend… thought Kikyo malevolently. That should be easy. This creature has just awakened. It doesn't know friend from foe! She stepped into the room. Kami and Akiro jumped. "Get out of the way, Akiro," said Kikyo.
"W-what do you want?" asked Kami defensively.
"I've come for the creature," Kikyo replied coldly. To her great surprise, the creature spoke.
"Who is that woman, Kami?" it asked, burying itself in Kami's hoodie.
Kami did not appear to be shocked at all at the Pokemon's speech and said, "It's Kikyo. She's bad. Very bad. You don't want to be her friend, Jirachi."
The Pokemon nodded. "I can tell. Kikyo has many different types of feelings inside her…"
Kikyo's mouth twisted into a snarl. "Shut up and hand over the creature!" she spat. "Or I'll kill you!" Her hand reached behind her back into the quiver of arrows she kept with her at all times. "That creature belongs to me! After all the trouble I went into to get it here!" She drew her bow, notched an arrow and let it fly towards the three.
Jirachi closed its eyes and Kikyo's arrow hit the wall. They had vanished into thin air! All three! The demon, the creature, and the girl! Kikyo howled in frustration. "I WILL get my hands on that creature if it's the last thing I do! Inuyasha will be MINE!"
Somewhere out in the forest
"Kami, you can open your eyes," said Jirachi, floating around her head.
She did so, and found that they were outside in a patch of forest. "Jirachi… thank you!" She hugged the Pokemon tightly. "I didn't know you could teleport!"
It giggled and hugged her back.
"I'm sure Naraku will be out to find us," said Akiro, getting up. His face all of a sudden changed from emotionless to sad. "After all, I am forever tied to him."
"KAMI!" A yell came from above her. She looked up. Sitting on Kirara's back were Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, and Kagome. "You're safe! How did you get out here?!" Kagome exclaimed. Then she saw Akiro. "Who's he?"
"Whoever he is, he reeks of Naraku's scent!" snarled Inuyasha, pulling out the Tetsusaiga. "I'll kill him!"
"NO! Don't!" shouted Kami. "His name's Akiro and he's my friend!"
"Kami… how could one of Naraku's incarnates be your friend?" asked Kagome gently. "What happened while you were inside his castle?"
"A whole lot," the girl admitted truthfully. "It's a long story."
"Well, tell it right here," said Kagome. "We're listening."
End Chapter
