Inu Yasha, Kagome, Akiko, Kaede, Shippo, Miroku, Kilala and Sango sat around a glowing fire, discussing the strange past, Miroku wasn't paying attention, to Kaede any ways, and he was more interested in trying to grope Sango anyways. Inu Yasha was still angry at Akiko and was pouting in the corner, while Shippo and Kilala were sleeping next to the fire. Sango, Kagome and Akiko listened to Kaede's wisdom.
"I didn't always look like this... I didn't even know I had demon in me." Explained Akiko, looking towards the ground, then back up to Kaede. Kaede nodded her head and considered this statement.
"The Demon energy floating through the air must be what's causing your change. When you get back to your time, you should change back." Kaede nodded again at her statement. "But the real question is, what demons did you originate from, it'll be dangerous if your powers are uncontrolled. You saw what happened to Inu Yasha." Inu Yasha looked away with an irritated look on his face,
"You should go back to your own time kid; you're useless if you can't control your powers." He switched his look to smug and waited for Akiko to start crying again; Inu Yasha enjoyed seeing Akiko in emotional pain.
"It's Not My fault you conduct electricity." Akiko said with a completely innocent look on her face. Inu Yasha seemed surprised at this and he jumped up and gestured for her to fight. "Bring it on Parachute boy!" Akiko bellowed and got in her fighting stance.
"SIT!" Inu Yasha Thudded hard to the ground and was lying on the floor. "Inu Yasha you're so heartless sometimes, can't you see she's confused?" Kagome yelled, Akiko just sat behind Kagome with a smile on her face while Inu went back to pouting in the corner. Kilala opened her eyes and started meowing at the door consistently. Sango walked over to Kilala and picked her up, petting Kilala to calm her down.
Screams echoed outside the door and the ground began to shake, everyone ran outside and got ready for battle. Inu Yasha pulled out his sword, Sango readied her boomerang, Miroku held the beads in his hands ready to pull them off, and Kagome pulled out an arrow. A crack in the ground began spreading down the middle of the dirt road and stopped at Akiko's feet. Everything seemed to stop, the birds no longer crowed, the towns people no longer screamed, everyone just watched.
The ground shook harder than before and the crack began to open, it was a bottomless pit, seeming to reach into the pits of the underworld. Fire began to spew from the pit as countless, hideous demons flew out, truly from the gates of hell. Inu Yasha jumped into the air and sliced the demons in two with his Tetsusaiga, while Sango threw her boomerang into the mass of demons and Miroku sucked them into the vortex in his hand.
The demons halted and began to retreat, back into the flaming pit.
"Yea, you better run!" Inu Yasha spat, feeling full of himself. He turned his back heading towards his corner when the demons busted back out of the pit, forming into a giant snake monster. It was a bloody red with blackish- greenish diamonds on its back and spikes leading down its sides. It rose higher and higher into the air, hissing and spitting acid-like poison that burnt anything it touched to the ground. Kagome and Akiko screamed while Sango hurled her boomerang at the monster, but it ricocheted off the snake's tough skin. Miroku was in danger of his hand being split if he used the portal, and the only thing near powerful enough to hurt the monster was Inu Yasha's sword, or Kagome's arrows.
Inu Yasha jumped into the air flinging the Tetsusaiga's power at the snake, but they barely penetrated its skin. The snake spat masses of lime green acid at Inu Yasha, who could barely dodge the poison. Kagome's eyes were fixed on the mid-section of the beast. She could barely sense a jewel shard through the iron-like exterior of the snake. Inu Yasha kept slicing at the snake, but nothing worked.
"Inu Yasha, you're futile attempts aren't good enough to defeat this monster?" Came a chilling voice. A man with long wavy-raven colored hair waltzed out of the shadows. He gave Inu Yasha a last cold glare, the snapped his fingers. The snake dove back into the pit and burst out of the ground where Inu Yasha was standing. It took Inu Yasha in its mouth and began to crush him.
"Blades of blood!" Inu Yasha screamed. The snake immediately let go and screeched in pain. It fell to the ground, twisting and turning in throbbing pain. Kagome picked up her bow drew back three arrows. The ends began to glow with a glowing pink light as they flew. One went strait into the snake's mouth, the other two glided into the distance. The Snake shrieked in its inevitable pain. The whole thing stopped, and grew limp, resting on the ground.
"Inu Yasha," Said the man with wavy hair in a tone of disappointment, "I didn't know you need a human to take care of your work." He chuckled, obviously intimidating Inu Yasha.
"At least I don't need a snake that CAN be beaten by a human to do my dirty work, Naraku!" Hollered Inu Yasha, who unsheathed his sword and charged at Naraku. Naraku easily dodged and appeared at the Snakes side. He reached in and pulled out the glowing Shikon jewel.
"Kagome..." Whispered Akiko to Kagome, "I don't really get it but shoot another arrow at his arm." Kagome nodded and drew back another arrow, the tip began to glow pink, and it was speeding towards Naraku's arm. Thunder bellowed through the blackening sky, and a bolt of lightning hit the arrow. The whole arrow began to glow a soft purple and hit Naraku straight in the arm. He screamed in pain as the arrow both burnt him and shocked him. He dropped the jewel onto the ground and a piece chipped off, rolling down the hill into the water below.
"This isn't over!" Naraku spat, grabbing the jewel, and fading back into the shadows. Again, everything was still, now birds crowed, no one was talking, and the river even seemed to stand still.
"That was... AMAZING!" Sango cheered, she ran up to Kagome and Akiko, hugging the both. Shippo joined the group hug, and Kilala mewed. Inu Yasha, still not fond of cheeriness, turned up his nose at the option of a hug. Everyone split apart and were all talking at the same time on how cool that fight was. Miroku, again, casually walked up to Akiko and gave her a big hug.
"I was right about you, your soul is pure." Miroku said which was followed by a slap from Akiko. All the girls glared at him, and Shippo held his head in his hands.
"He's always like this isn't he?" Akiko asked Kagome and Sango. Both nodded. While Inu Yasha continued to pout, Shippo began to scald Miroku about being perverted, and Kaede just smiled at Akiko.
I was wrong about ye, little demon child, ye shall not be forgotten.
"I didn't always look like this... I didn't even know I had demon in me." Explained Akiko, looking towards the ground, then back up to Kaede. Kaede nodded her head and considered this statement.
