Another Attack?
"So, what do you think he's after?" InuYasha asked Kagome, after Sesshomaru had left.
"Honestly, I have no clue, but…" she thought for a moment, "…he seemed sincere, I really don't think he's out to get you, Rin has changed him, you know, he's more mellow now, doesn't fight as much."
"Hey, his name is Sesshomaru, and he has a little girl named Rin, right?" Inu asked. "Well, Sesshomaru, my brother Sesshomaru, has a girlfriend named Rin, and he seems to have changed the same way that you talk about your Sesshomaru, my Sesshomaru used to get into fights every day."
"What?" said a very confused InuYasha.
"Basically, he's saying that he knows what I'm talking about." Kagome explained to the clueless hanyou.
"Even if he was telling the truth, we've still got to defeat her, and she won't fall for that same tactic we used on her the first time we met her, y'know, plus, we've got to find her, and we have to figure out what she's after, and not let her have it." InuYasha said thoughtfully.
"I know that, but how will we know what she's after?" Kagome wondered.
"Well, first we have to figure out what me and my brother have in common, then what she wouldn't be after because she brought you back to this time."
"Well, you both have your father's swords, don't you?"
"Yes, but then why did she bring you back? None of this makes any sense." InuYasha grumbled hitting a tree, and 'accidentally' putting a deep impression on it.
"Well, why don't you ask Sesshomaru? He certainly seemed smarter than you." Inu said, smirking.
"What did you say?" Inu growled menacingly.
"Boys, can you please just stop! Don't make me use the S-word again!" Kagome threatened, both of the hanyous.
"Please no!" both said at once, with tears in their eyes, causing Kagome to giggle.
"In any case, we might as well find him, if he's lying, we'll find out about Aski, and if not, we'll learn what he knows about Aski and gain an ally, either way it helps us." she said after she finished giggling, "Oh, and, what's going on with Naraku? Is he still attacking you or has he given up?"
"Well, once you disappeared, he didn't really do much, aside from sending some low-level demons after us, none of them with shards, I guess he didn't want to help us find some more. I think he didn't care much about us without you." InuYasha explained about the past year.
"By the way, have you seen Miroku or Sango?"
"They were just here a minute ago." He sniffed the air and flicked his ears. "What the… I don't smell or hear them now." Kagome, knowing how good his senses of hearing and smell were, suddenly got closer to him.
"Kagome, get your bow! Inu, Get beside me and Kagome in a triangle formation! Keep everyone's back covered!" InuYasha suddenly started barking (No pun intended) out orders, everyone did as he or she were told, and they soon made it so that no one could sneak up on them, "Inu! Clear your mind! Let your instincts take over, and use your senses of hearing and smell to anticipate where it's coming from!" Both Dog-demons started listening and smelling for anything, anything, that would tell them what this thing was, and how it could make a trained demon hunter and lecherous monk with a black hole in his hand simply disappear, without a trace.
"Um, InuYasha? Do you hear that? That grinding noise?" Inu asked the more experienced dog demon, who nodded his head.
"The hell?! Where could it be coming from?!" he said, still listening intently to the noise, as it seemed to be coming from all around him, suddenly, it clicked, he turned around and grabbed Kagome, and held her close to him. "Inu! Jump! Do it now!" He yelled at his mirror image.
"But why?"
"Never mind! Just do it!" He jumped into the air with Kagome, a second hanyou following close behind.
"Is there a point to this!?" An angry Inu yelled over the rush of air.
"Yes! Look!" he said, pointing to where they had just been standing to seconds before, there was a giant hole that even InuYasha couldn't jump out of, not to mention spikes at the bottom.
"What the hell could do that?"
"Only one demon, the mole, has that power over the earth, there are only supposed to be about five left on the planet, so I didn't think of it at first." InuYasha explained matter-of-factly, when he finally started paying attention to Inu, he saw a horrified expression on his face. "What's wrong, Inu? As long as we're up here, it can't hurt us."
"But she probably can!" Inu said, pointing behind him, to which InuYasha shifted his body weight around to see what had him so scared, and turned to stare Kagura right in the face.
A/N: Hey! I'm getting faster, or maybe slightly less lazy! Well, probably not, but anyways. Who here thinks this story's great? Crickets chirping Good? More crickets Okay? small group of cheering fans greatly overshadowed by crickets chirping Will somebody call the exterminator!? Next post will be up no earlier than two years from now. Just kidding (I hope). Any questions or whatnot, review or email (of course I'd rather it not be the latter, because nobody will believe that I have any fans sniff.
