Hey peeps, I'm very sorry for not updating this sooner, but I've been working on a story that's a crossover between Brute Force (Xbox Game) and Law & Order: SVU. I have a lot done so, if you want me to post it, just tell me so in a review!
Did you know?: Kikyo means 'artificial pneumonthorax' and Rin means 'park'
Chapter 2: Ichi Dei Ton 'ei!
Kagome was in the dojo training. She was wearing the same thing as Sesshoumaru would, except it was maroon with crimson dragons breathing black fire designs. (Let's just say the group accepts any shade of red and black, k?)
Her sword, Kage Tsunami, was glowing an eerie black. It's blade from one of Kagome's own teeth. The katana's blade was red with a black handle. On the sheath and blade was written in silver hiragana, "Kagome Kagemusha, gekidoku dekiagari, Tsunami Kage" which translated to, "Shadow Tidal Wave, made for the deadly poison, Shadow Warrior Kagome".
Sango entered the room wearing basically the same thing, except it was black with red dragons breathing silvery-gray flames. It looked kind of like smoke. She went over to the weapons rack that held nothing but katana and swords.
Even though the room was covered with Sengoku Jidai weapons, they could either be closed off into the wall by Kagome, or it would flip over and reveal modern weapons, such as guns and things.
Sango picked up a medieval sword from England. It was as long as her arm and its weight was proportional with her body weight.
Sango warmed up and started sparring with Kagome. Kagome seemed to have the upper hand when Hiei and Kurama entered for their training.
Sango looked at them and Kagome decided to strike. She did a quick twist and slashed Sango's arm. A large, bleeding gash remained. Had Kagome put even an ounce more pressure, Sango's arm would've been permanently damaged.
"Sango! Pay attention instead of going all gooey for the fox!" Lucky for Sango, Kagome had growled this in inu language.
Kagome back flipped into a far corner in the dojo and disappeared into the shadows. Both Kurama and Hiei were both impressed at her agility; all of the corners were at least forty-five meters away. They were more impressed when Kagome appeared in front of Sango and started bandaging her wound.
Kagome's tail started beating the floor in a rhythmic beat as she used her miko powers to heal and repair Sango's fatal wound. (Kagome has miko powers still. It will be explained later.)
When she was done, Sango and Kagome's swords turned into regular katana. Kagome unsheathed two swords from the air and threw one at Hiei and the other at Kurama. They both caught it easily and examined them. After a tough inspection, they were both satisfied with their blades.
Hiei's sword had flames dancing at the tip of the blade. What was truly surprising though, was that the blade itself was a giant, un-meltable icicle melded into a hilt! On the hilt and sheath were some characters in hiragana that said, "Only to work for the Great Forbidden One." Obviously Kagome had made the blade herself; it was the best type of sword available and he had one custom made for himself! He was truly grateful.
Kurama's katana was made out of two strands of dog hair and a venomous plant that would only allow certain people to wield the sword. The dog hair made two silver lines down a pulsing red blade. This blade was very hard to find and nearly impossible to make, like Hiei's sword. He knew Kagome must've made this sword as well, for her essence was on both blades. On the hilt and sheath it said, "For the Silver kitsune who lives with a human heart." Kurama was also extremely grateful and both he and Hiei bowed low to Kagome and thanked her.
Kagome only smirked at them and giggled lightly before saying, "I'm glad you like it; now put the blades away, we're only using regular katana today." Kurama and Hiei both sent her a nasty look and Hiei grunted softly as they put away the blades in a place reserved for their blades next to Kagome's; they had really wanted to try out their katana.
When they put away their blades, they went to the weapon walls and got the correct katana for themselves. They then returned with their blades to finally notice that their trainers no longer had their custom blades as Sango whispered something in Kagome's ear. Kagome had an evil glint in her eye that matched her malicious smirk as she and Sango disappeared into the now dark dojo.
"Defend yourself." Kagome's voice echoed throughout the dojo, not giving away her position as Hiei and Kurama got into defensive stances. Hiei jumped in the air as a blade followed him. Hiei landed and blocked a katana as it came from behind.
Kurama blocked a blade as well as it came seemingly out of nowhere in the darkness. Te boys started to perspire slightly when the blades came faster and faster. After about twenty minutes of dodging and blocking blades, the katana stopped coming. "Very good. At least you can defend. Now, attack!" Kagome's voice was stone when the dojo brightened to reveal herself and Sango.
Hiei and Kurama immediately got into offensive mode and studied their trainers, still slightly winded from blocking earlier attacks.
Hiei was a blur of shadows as he sped to attack his trainer. He zigzagged with te tightest weave Sango and Kagome had ever seen. He had obvious skill if he could do that so fast.
Just as Hiei was about to strike, Kagome disappeared. He twisted around just in time to block an attack from Sango and slightly nicked her on her left arm as she freed herself.
Kagome's aura lit up and a crimson light appeared, dancing around the dojo at a frighteningly fast pace as Kurama sped at Sango. Kurama jumped and got his sword blocked as he tried to attack Sango's front, but was quick enough to give her a gash on her back.
Just as Kurama landed, a katana was at his throat and Sango's voice came, "You're dead." Her wounds were healed along with her lacking stamina thanks to the quickly fading crimson light of miko power from Kagome.
Sango and Kurama sat over in the stands that glowed a neon blue in the darkness. Just as they sat down, they stood up to see an unconscious Hiei laying in the middle of the now bright arena.
As Kurama and Sango walked over to Hiei, Kagome suddenly appeared over his unmoving body; she put a cold cloth over his entire face.
"Why does she put it over his face instead of just his forehead?" Kurama really wanted to know the answer to such a puzzling equation. /Cheater! You're supposed to figure it out for yourself like a REAL kitsune!/ 'Shut up Youko! Now's not the time!' Kurama patiently awaited the answer.
He wasn't disappointed.
"Everyone who lives here does it. We found...well, actually Kagome found that people awaken quicker. Hiei must be really good if he only ended up unconscious with a few scratches. Most people end up dead or badly mutilated after their first mock spar with Kagome."
Kurama then considered himself and Hiei very lucky. Himself because he got Sango's training first, and Hiei because he was used to pushing himself and was an exceptional fighter. Kurama told his friend through mind link everything that Sango just said, emphasizing the part on what happened to her past students. Kurama only felt a weak tendril of shock.
Kagome smiled as Hiei stood and got up herself. "You're very good; you'll probably surpass me with that growing power of yours. My power is still growing, but only half as fast as yours."
Kagome and Sango threw their blades into the air and walked to the doorway as the blades flew to their proper places and sheathed themselves. Hiei and Kurama hesitantly did the same and were a bit awed when the blades mimicked the others, sheathing themselves.
"The katana that you used will automatically return to you when you come for training...unless you wish it otherwise. Also, be careful of what you think; only exceptionally strong minds, like Hiei with his Jagon, can avoid having their thoughts analyzed, processed and repeated by the room...It's the perfect way to expose your enemy. The victim, of course, won't know it because the room's technology repeats it almost the instant you think it. I call it the . It also records the info on a hard drive that has infinite amount of memory and can only be accessed by me."
Hiei and Kurama froze in their places behind the girls as Kagome revealed her excellent technology. "So you made this?" Sango laughed at Kurama's question.
"Kagome is a fourteen year old prodigy. Even though everyone outside the family hates it, it's a trait that runs in the family that'll randomly leave traces or skip an entire generation. Sesshoumaru and myself were the generations that only got a partial amount of the trait."
"She's fourteen? Wow, we're the same age! Cool!" Yusuke crowed as he and Kuwabara walked in for their lessons. Kagome was suddenly in front of an unfazed Yusuke and a shocked Kuwabara. She decided she would disable a few mind shields so she could talk to them through her thoughts.
"The only people that can avoid having there thoughts repeated is: Sesshoumaru, Sango, Hiei, Shippou, my father, and myself. Everyone else is untrained and can be trained after lunch, if you have my class then. In case your wondering, I had to drop about six shields to speak to you this way."
Kagome was once more in a headlock. It was InuYasha, who, was currently giving Kagome a bad hair day with a noogie. He looked too damn smug when he released her.
Kagome's eyes were mere slits when she laid her clawed hand around InuYasha's neck. His face never faltered as he grinned and said, "I heard that you got a boyfriend. Chichi-ue said he has his consent to court you."
Kagome's eyes widened and her hand dropped to her side; Sango's jaw was unhinged. Chichi-ue never told her that the guy had his consent! Kagome walked to a wall, everyone's eyes on her and her blazing aura. She was so made that it became tangible. Yusuke and Kuwabara could barely breather because it was so thick...actually Kuwabara had already passed out.
"What about Kouga?" Sango asked in dog language. InuYasha's face took on the look of disgust. "Yeah, uh, he got it too; Otousan said that the best one gets Kago-chan."
Kagome's anger flared to dangerously high levels, making the youkai start to take deep breathes in order to stay conscious. Kagome pressed a button in the wall and a hole in the floor appeared. She jumped into it, the sounds of a large animal floating into everyone's ears.
Everyone who could move, which was only full youkai, followed slowly. They heard Yusuke pass out as his life was no longer in danger.
It was completely dark in the place and they had to rely on Kagome's ki signature to guide them. At the end of the hall, everything was colored by a bright wash of red.
InuYasha and Sango both whispered, "Faiakijo Ryuujin." They had never seen the fabled dragon before. They had heard he was mean and over protective of Kagome. When they finally saw the whole room, they saw Kagome wrapped in an extremely large black and red tail going through a portal above them.
The last thing they heard was Kagome's voice saying, "Sorry for the interruption of lessons. They will continue tomorrow." Then everyone was back in the dojo, the portal and the button gone...
