Chapter 7:Welcome to Our Crazy Little Group!

Darien's P.O.V.

After getting aquainted with the Santo sisters and their friends we decided It'd be okay to bring them back to camp with us......Ryu wouldnt like it that much but Rae and Sakura had their ways with him.I chuckled silently.Even as kids i had a crush on Rae but I'm not gonna admit it."DARIEN!" yelled Rae irrated."Huh?" I asked, wondering how many times she'd called my name."I ASKED you if you wanted to stop and rest to get something to eat....we did walk a long way away from camp" said Rae.I heard Juri giggle.On the trip she had already tried to flirt with me 5 times before she got the hint that i wasnt intrested and that Rae was gonna go bonkers for some unknown reason."Nah, I'm fine really thanks rae" I smiled."feh" she said in the imortal words of her father but I dont even think its a word more like an expression.We finally reached camp.Sakura came running towards us."Rae-chan!Inu-san is not happy that you and Darien have been gone so long" exclaimed Sakura."Thanks for the warning Kura-chan" sighed Rae.She had given Sakura that nickname when we were young and she got tired of saying such a long name.....she called her sister Mid-chan,and Sesshomaru Uncle Sesshy or Uncle Fluffy."RAVEN!" I heard Inuyasha yell.Rae and I winced."Over here dad!" called Rae.Inuyasha appeared in front of us with Kagome right behind him making sure he didnt do anything rash."Where have you been!!??sniff,sniffYou had us worried" He began angrily and after the scent sniffing he calmed down."Darien,left camp so I followed him for 30 min. before he acknowledged my presence.We met up with these water demons and headed back" answered Rae.Kadiri stood and bowed along with Yoshimi.Hiroshi and Juri looked at them curiously."Gawed Juri didnt you ever listen to Saya?" Kadiri asked."..." "They are Lord Inuyasha and Lady Kagome of the Northern Lands,bow" said Yoshimi.Hiroshi and Juri quickly bowed.Inuyasha and Kagome did the same."Pleased to meet you" smiled Kagome.
"You didnt tell us your title princess why?" Hiroshi asked Rae."I dont want any special treatment" sighed Rae."Wait,weren't you the ones who defeated Naraku?" asked Juri out of the blue.Inuyasha and Kagome nodded."So Lady Kagome -sama is the one Kiaku is after" whispered Kadiri.Kagome nodded sadly.With that we all headed towards the caves.

Kadiri's P.O.V.

'Poor Kagome-sama' I thought. I looked at my anue.As flirty and cooky and innocent as she is she knows when to be serious.I used to be like Juri,fun-loving,and innocent.Then Kiaku slaughtered our tribe right before my eyes when I was twelve.Only Yoshimi and I saw it because Juri and Hiroshi were flirting far behind.It had been a year and even with Juri,Hiroshi,and Yoshimi watching over me and trying to shield the incedent from my mind,the visions of my otou-san and okaa-chan being brutally murdered haunted me still.I dont sleep much anymore for fear that the dreams will occur once again.The horror filled day stayed in my mind no matter how much i tried to block it out.My innosence was stolen that day,after seeing my other older sister,Saya being taken away by Kiaku's soldiers.Kagome went through that pain with Naraku and now it was happening again. Kagome-sama looked at me. I was startled. "Kadiri-chan are you alright?" she asked.I nodded.She reminded me so much of my mother. Caring, and worrying for everyone. "Then why were you so quiet?" asked Kagome. "I was just thinking about how Kiaku slaughtered my tribe, and how much you remind me of my own mother" I said. Her eyes softened more than i thought possible."What happened?" she asked softly. I sighed. "My sister, Juri,Hiroshi, and Yoshimi and I went out to have fun after a long days work helping my parents and other anue, Kira. Suddenly, I felt something was wrong so I decided to head back. Yoshimi volunteered to walk with me. We reached the bottom of the hill that was at the top of our village, and heard cries of pain. We rushed to the top to find our comrades,the people who we considered our families being attacked.Kira saw us and with her power of telekanisis(sp?) told us to run for it. I didnt want to but Yoshimi took me away.But before he could Kira was taken by one of the demons attacking and took her away to a demon with dark hair and red eyes. She screamed at him 'WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?' he cackled and answered.'My name is Kiaku, and I was bored so I decided to have some fun' his servants took her away" said Kadiri tearing up.Juri hugged her little sister."She and Yoshimi came running, and told us about it so Hiroshi and I didnt see the horrible sight.We trained for 6 months and then started our journey to avenge our tribe and find out what that monster has done,did, or is doing to our anue" said Juri. "thats a very noble cause and at such a young age too" said Kagome. "Lets head back to camp and introduce everyone" said Inuyasha. Rae and Darien nodded. When we reached camp the girl who approached us before looked up from bickering with what looked like a chibi Inuyasha-san with shorter hair. "Ohayo minna" the girl smiled. "Sakura call everyone here onegaii" asked Kagome. Sakura nodded. The boy came up to us. "Who are they?" he asked. "Ryu meet our new friends Kadiri,Juri,Hiroshi,and Yoshimi" glared Rae."and they're going to join our quest" said Darien
