Ohayo Minna-san ! It's my birthday last May 7, 2004 ! So I updated just
for ya ! And I
made them EXTRA LONG just like I promised and sorry if it took a little long but it's your
fault too ! Some of you are not reviewing and I started typing when I posted the last chapter.
So let's start with your extra long chapter !!
Chapter 4 = Kagome's worst or best days ever?
It was early in the morning about 6am and Kagome was at the bone eaters well, staring down
at it and glancing back and forth to it and the necklace around her neck.
Her hands on the lip of the well were gripping it tightly almost crushing it with the force and
effort while glaring in the depths of the well, then she sighed a long deep sigh.
She turned on her heel and started walking to her favorite river, okay so she only saw it
yesterday but she decided it was. She needed a bath, since yesterday she didn't have one.
Inuyasha and the others except Hatake who was gone were eating breakfast, since they
hadn't eaten since last night but she really didn't mind skipping breakfast too.
Halfway to her favorite river, she heard a howl a cry for help howl of an animal.
She didn't waste anytime and started running, the howl seemed about 5 hours to the west,
nearing the end of her favorite river where she heard a waterfall but then, the howl directed
away from it and into the woody forest. She was now at the west territory of Inuyasha's
half brother and she knew that if she stayed longer, she'd be hunted down by him.
" Tch. It's not like he's going to beat me.....can he? " Kagome asked in a whisper.
She could smell and sense the little fellow now, and from the smell of the air, it wasn't hurt at
all. She could smell no blood and no other demon or creature that could be any harm.
Then, she saw a small fox demon in a clearing. He looked tired, that's for sure.
Kagome then made her presence known and she stepped out behind the tree she was in.
The small fox demons head snapped up to see her face, he stood up and ran to her.
Kagome bent down to meet his eye level, he plastered something on her forehead, but of
course Kagome saw it coming. She just didn't do anything to spoil the child.
The small fox demon just stared at her wide eyed as she removed the ofuda like paper on her
forehead and she smiled at the small demon almost apologetically.
" Sorry, I'm a miko and I can easily erase your writings on the ofudas you use. " She said as
she showed the kit the now blank ofuda that once had black writting in them.
The little demon child just ran off to hide in a tree, him knowing that humans find it hard to
climb trees found it perfect to hide in. Kagome just smiled and turned around making her
leave as curious emerald eyes followed her presence as she did so.
' The Shikon no tama. If I get it I can bring mama and dada back to life. ' The little fox demon
thought as she continued following the mysterious, human ' miko '.
Kagome walked back to her favorite river and once there, she removed her boots, her back
pack and stood on top of the boulder and jumped in the 1 and a 1/2 meter deep rivers water.
( Is that too deep? Or too shallow? )
And swam until she couldn't anymore. And by the time she was done, it was already about
10am, perfect for drying off under the warm sun. And of course it was just perfect for the skin,
concerning that there weren't almost any air polluters in the fedual era unlike the city.
When she was all dried off, she putted her boots back on, brushed her hair neatly and putted it
on back it's high ponytail and also her backpack strapped on her back.
As she made her way back to the village, the little kit still following her as she did so.
But she didn't pay attention to him, she just went on and on and saw the others
They didn't know where she was, but they went to her house once again and being lucky, there
was someone home. Well all that they felt were home, except they didn't sense or smelled
Kagome near their house except these last days but hopping they would get an answer, they
knocked and it happened so fast in their eye's that all in a split second, they can't move.
All of them had ofudas on their chests and their gaze went up to the person responsible and
saw Kagome's older brother thought Kurama, Kuwabara and Yusuke who had met him before.
Hiei had just glared at him, thinking that the human infront of him should die for doing what
was done. The human, Kagome's older brother returned him the glare, glaring right back at
him just as intently or much more 'cause his eye's held incredible anger and a tint of sadness.
But only a small speck compared to the anger in them, then, an old man and a woman in her
30's walked from behind him. Sporting the glare he also had in his eyes towards them.
Both demons eye's were caught on the thing on Kagome's brothers shoulders, it was white
paper, with black ancient writings and green cover on the outside. It was a sutra, demons all
around Makai that were class B and up know about this. The Monks and Miko's who possess
it generally called it the ' Heavens Sutra ' it was and is used to purify all demons alike or
humans with an evil soul. It was said that the sutra chooses its master and that it has a mind of
it's own. And as of now, the sutra was hanging on Aki, Kagome's brothers shoulder. It was
hanging like when you have a towel, and you generally hang it around your neck but the ends
hand just above your chest. The old man was holding ofudas on his hand, each had the
symbols of elements in them. The woman was holding arrows on one hand and a katana on the
other, both glowing a faint blue color as she held it tight, knuckles white.
" What have you done with Kagome? " Were their only question as they glared harder.
They had used a Time Freezing spell to make them still and put the ofudas.
After a minute, they found out that they could speak and speak they did.
" What do you mean !? We're looking for her?! " Yusuke blurted out, his hand was tired of
holding the position of knocking on the door. He was the one who knocked.
" You didn't take her? " Aki asked agitated as he sensed that the guy wasn't lying and took
off the ofudas as he turned around and faced his family with a still angry look.
" Dear, maybe its one of her other demon friends? " the middle aged woman asked, as she
turned her head away in the suggestion, ashamed of something. Obviously.
" Mom what do you mean?! I told her those demons can't be trusted ! It's her fault that she's
missing ! She never listens to me and now that when I'm right I'm the one who gets worried,
I'm the one responsible ! I'm her older brother and don't even have a clue to where she is ! Or
if she's hurt ! She had never been gone in less than a day when it comes to those demons and
now I'm worried and I can't even do a thing to help ! " Yelled a worried older brother.
The spirit detectives just stood there, in concern to the worried guy was intense.
With Hiei however, he didn't and won't admit but what the human said struck something in
him, that was what exactly he felt when he learned that he had a little sister.
" Excuse me but what do you mean? How was she missing? " asked Kurama.
His eye's had some specks of gold in them, meaning that Youko wanted to get out.
Aki turned around, the anger still in his eyes but only half the portion was left, considering
that the other half was greatly taken by worry for the younger sibling.
" The day before yesterday, after you three ( Kurama, Yusuke and Kuwabara ) visited, she
had been gone and she didn't come back. ( Heads to the well, others followed. ) I felt the wells
power open, ( opens the shed ) I saw the ofudas from it tore away and this is where I last
sensed Kagome and with another demon that must be one of her friends. So I assumed it was
you ( points at Kurama ) and I also looked for her all over but I didn't see her anywhere. "
He explained, glaring at the well as if demanding it for answers to the whereabouts.
Kurama and the others looked around the small shed, checking for clues.
Hiei was just darting his eyes back and forth and was walking around slightly.
Until he stepped on something, rather pointy but since he was walking slowly, it didn't do any
damage to him. He kneeled down, the thing he stepped on was metal, he was going to pick it
up but noticed that it was bigger and that the other portion of it was burried beneath the
ground soil. So, he stuck his hand a little further down the ground and pulled the thing.
It was a shuriken, it couldn't be old, it was still shining black as he held it with his thumb and
index finger and if it was old it should be dull and it should have rusts in its edges.
Yusuke, Kuwabara and Kurama noticed him kneeling on the ground and decided to check out
what it was he was doing. Also kneeling on knee on the ground their eye's traveled to what
Hiei was holding in his hand. " Hiei, where did you get that? " Kurama asked.
" Under the ground. It was partly burried, it's in condition. " Hiei said as he tossed Kurama
the ninja star ( shuriken ) who immediately examined it and went up the stairs followed by the
others towards Kagome's family. Kurama showed them the black shining ninja star.
He handed it to Aki, who examined it with one look and nodded in his confirmation.
" That's one of Kagome's shuriken, she always uses it to purify demons instead of the
traditional bow and arrows or Katana. " He explained as he gripped the shuriken, drawing his
own blood all over his hand. But didn't seem to notice until.....
" I think that Kagome fought a demon, after all, there shouldn't be any blood or bones if she
purified it and the ashes from the said demon could've already mixed with the ground soil. But
what confuses me is that, her scent ended inside the well and she must've got inju-- " Kurama
was cut-off, before he could even finish.
" No. Kagome can't get injured jumping inside a well. She's been jumping on and off large tall
buildings ever since she was 7years old. And if the demon caused it, she could've easily
chanted a time freezing spell to land softly or she could've used one of her energy chains and
easily made it implant on the roof to not fall. There are many reasons and ways that she could
not possibly fall in there. And on top of those, that well is magical in it's own way. " Aki said.
That made them think for a while until Kurama spoke again.
" What do you mean by ' magical in it's own way ' ? " He asked, his curiousness surfacing.
" That well and the large tree outside has been here for centuries. It has been blessed
through out those past time by famous and legendary monks and mikos that time and it
gained some of the energy and in proof, it continues to give it off. " Aki once again explained
as he removed the ofuda that he had just placed the day Kagome went missing.
And when he completely removed it, the well indeed was emitting a strange energy life force.
He went to the tree nearby and removed the string of seals attached to it and just like the well
it emmited the same strange energy. The Reikai tanteis looked at each other for a while.
" It is also said that, the legendary well known as the Bone eaters well, wants it to let the
others know the pleasure of the more glorious life in the past. And that the well might just be a
time travelling device to the past where it has more peace. " Aki said, getting their attention.
" Knowing my grand daughter, she is curious and likes to get into an adventure every once in
a while. If the demon she had defeated came out of the well, she had most likely jumped in
herself to know more about it. But also knowing her, she wouldn't make us worry just to have
her fun and there is more likely a problem. " said the old man, his eyes closed.
" But when it's likely in battles, Kagome can with stand almost everything in her way.
Specially when she's in one of her pissed off mood or when it comes to demons. " The middle
aged woman stated, one of her fingers pointing to her chin in a thinking manner with a kind of
sour feature etched on her face as she remembered some of those days she was speaking off.
" We know someone who can help. " Kurama suddenly said, getting the others attention.
" Who? Another demon? " Aki asked, stretching the demon part.
" No, he's more like a demi-god.....( insert about Koenma here. ) " Kurama explained.
" Then, I'll come too. Mom and Jii-chan you have to stay here and see if she might come back
and tell me. ( both adult nods ) " Aki said after registering the information.
Kurama looked at the other spirit detectives, they looked at each other and just shrugged.
" Okay then. Let's go Yusuke, call Botan to open a portal for us. " Kurama said.
Yusuke did as what his companion and friend told him and Botan opened up a portal to Spirit
World for them to talk to the toddler prince of Reikai as Yusuke had thought.
-- Inside Koenma's Office --
" Yo Toddler ! " Yusuke greeted, seeing Koenma's fuming face made him snicker.
" Yusuke ! I told you not to call me that specially when we have a guest ! " The prince of
Reikai yelled while glaring at his hired spirit detective. He then changed into his teenage form
and straightened out and coughed up a little for his voice to come in.
" So, let me guess. Kagome decided to quit because of Genkai's training? " He asked.
Aki raised an eyebrow at the prince' statement.
" That's what I was thinking. " Yusuke murmured, Koenma glared at him.
" Actually Koenma, Kagome is missing and there is an outside demon occured. " Kurama
stated calmly. Koenma however had his mouth hung open and he accidentally changed into his
toddler form again while going through files, sweat running down his chin from nervousness.
" Koenma, I'm Aki, Kagome's older Monk brother. And she might have been brought to
some time period by the bone eaters well that my family had sealed long ago that was
accidentally been opened by removing the ofudas stripped to it, keeping it sealed. You have to
find her right away or she might be hurt. " Aki stated, his hands on Koenma's desk.
The young toddler relaxed at hearing that a Miko/Monk family were the one that kept the
well sealed and he sighed, and looked like he was thinking hard.
" Hey, what happened? Why is Koenma making that face? " Kuwabara asked.
Everyone looked at him, Kurama had a small sweat drop on his head, Hiei looked like he was
trying hard not to do something, Aki had several sweat drops on his head and Yusuke bonked
Kuwabara hard on the head and both of them started bickering...again.
Koenma just kept thinking, but his eye's were looking at the two spirit detectives bickering.
" First of all, if Kagome had returned time, she can be at least 1000 years back or more. It
will take some time to locate her if she really is lost in time somewheres. " Koenma
explained, heads turning to him. " Wait, is this another case? " Yusuke asked.
" Of course. But you will stay in training until we get some feedback. " Koenma answered.
Yusuke was about to blurt out something but Koenma beat him to it by asking something.
" I know Kagome will be found. But why don't you take her place? You may be stronger? "
" I won't admit I said this but, Kagome is definitely stronger than me in all ways than another
like for example in speed and also in using purifying energy. " Aki answered.
Koenma just sighed. He really didn't like the idea of letting a girl join the tournament.
Of course Genkai is a girl but the age difference is about all that matter if girl or not.
Especially with those perverted lower class demons out there.
" Very well then. You all may go, I will inform you if there is anything new. " Koenma said.
A portal opened under their feet, Aki's portal was of course different. Meaning it transported
him to their house and the spirit detectives were sent to Genkai's place for more training.
The rest of the day were full of hard training and also some worry.
The next day in Fedual Era
" Kagome-chan are you going to the river again? " Sango asked, seeing her friend leave
towards the direction she had always seen her go early in the morning.
" Uh-huh, yes Sango-chan. Why? " She answered then asked.
" Nothing. But can I come along? " Sango asked.
" Sure. " She answered, then they headed to it.
Half way there, Kagome felt Hatake nearing them and a small smile graced her lips.
When he did show up, they greeted each other. Kagome saw him holding something.
" Hey, Hata-kun what's that? " She asked, pointing to the black box he was holding.
He looked, and he scratched the back of his head but not before lowering his mask to
completely reveal his face from the black cloth. Then, with one hand he handed the box to
Kagome. She just looked at the slightly large box then back to him.
" Well, go ahead and open it Kagome. " He said assuringly.
Kagome then opened the box and saw many different kinds of basic and advanced ninja
weapons. Some of it, she really, really wanted so she was glad and grateful.
Kagome putted the box down and hugged Hatake real tight, he gratefully returned it.
" Arigatou Hata-kun ! " She thanked as she let go.
" Your welcome Kagome-san. " He said as he started his way back to the village.
With a satisfying smile on his face while doing so.
After Kagome had putted the box in her back pack, they resumed going to the river.
Kagome had told them about the kit that was following her and told them not to pay attention
to him as long as they could. And it was just fine with them considering that it was just a kit.
When they got to the river, Kagome went on the same procedure as before and took her bath
while Sango just watched her swim with a smile on her face. When she finished, Kagome felt a
demon coming but didn't pay any attention to it. It was the same crow demon that was always
near Kaede's hut and she presumed that it wanted the shikon no tama and that it wanted it
now. When she took pulled the necklace out of under her black clothing to let it show outside,
the small kit suddenly went out of his hiding place and caught both Kagome and Sango's
attention. He stood there, with slightly angry emerald eyes.
" Give me the shikon no tama. " He said in one brave breath as he could muster.
" Okay then. Why don't you come here and get it yourself? " Kagome suggested as she took
off the necklace and made the shikon jewel danggle by holding on to it's special chain.
The kit had a non-believing look on his face as he approached the miko to get the shikon
jewel and wish his parents back to life and live happily again.
He grabbed hold of the shikon jewel tight in his small hand and Kagome let go of the chain.
Sango was curious as to what Kagome had wanted to do actually do or prove using the jewel.
When the kit was a few meters away, the crow youkai was now visibly heading towards his
aim, the jewel and the kit knew it and to save his life, he started running but the crow demon
used it's claws to grab a hold of the kit and flew a little higher up. Sango was going to kill it but
Kagome held her hand to not do anything. Except she just waited and waited.
" Help !! " cried the little kit.
That was all Kagome needed as she took out a throwing knife and shot it at the demon.
( Throwing knife = If you watched Naruto you know what it is. It's like a large black shard
with a handle, at least that's what it looks like. It's the same color as the shuriken too. )
The large crow demon made a noise that signified that it was in extreme pain.
It's beak, then went to the prey in his claws and it swallowed the small shikon jewel.
It dropped the small kit down, and Kagome caught him safely in her arms.
The demon started flying away and it was in some distance, but Kagome jumped up and
threw 3 shurikens at it. One had miko energy and the other two were plain shurikens.
But the Kagome remembered the shikon jewel, as it made a little splash that it fell in the river
water. The river current where the demon flew over was rough and where Kagome stood, she
dived in the water to catch up on the jewel but her luck was out when the current started to
grew stronger and she got out of it. And again, cursing her luck. Inuyasha and the others
arrived, as they sensed the momentarily weak demon that became powerful with the jewel.
--After she explained what happened--
" What?! " Inuyasha blurted out. Cursing himself for not taking the jewel earlier.
' If I took that stinking jewel, I would be youkai and Kagome can never get back to the future.
But now, the jewels lost and- '
" It's not that hard, the jewel must have been dragged to the end of the river. " Kagome
reasoned. Breaking Inuyasha's train of thoughts.
" Unfortunately Kagome, there is a waterfall at the edge of the river. " Hatake stated
worriedly but inside in some part of him was happy because the jewel lost means Kagome
stays, but then, some part of him was saying that he shouldn't be happy for himself.
" Yeah Kagome. And that waterfall is called the 'Great Death Falls' " Sango added.
Kagome decided to ask why, which was a bad idea for the others atleast.
" Well, the waterfall is very beautiful and very deep and not to mention very large. No one
and nothing had ever went in their and come back on surface. Many had died there, body's
never recovered because of the never resurfacing thing. Nothing even floats in the surface of
the water without getting gripped down by the alive like under water plants. " Miroku
explained. As Kagome started walking to the end of the river, them following behind.
The kit however hid again from view.
When they reached the ' Great Death falll ' Kagome marveled at it's beauty.
They were at the very high cliff were the water fall descended, down below they could see the
large pool of water that the water fall made, the water looked to be in different shades of a
calm blue and just as Miroku explained and said, there weren't any leaves on the water. It
was very large like about as big as Kaede's village. The waterfall made a small rainbow
cascading over it, somewhat like a bridge. When Kagome looked down intently into the water,
she couldn't see anything except the water itself. But she could see that several ghosts were
at land or floating on top of the water. The ghosts were wearing kimonos, some, armors.
" Sango, let's go down there. " Kagome said, while poiting to the side of the waterall where it
was dry. Sango nodded, Kirara transformed. Both girls rode on her and so as Miroku to get
down, Inuyasha and Hatake only jumped down themselves.
When they got down, Kagome got near the water and secretly dipped her hand and jerked it
back when she felt the water move than normal. She got up from her kneeling position and
tunrned to the others. " It doesn't seem so dangerous to me. " Kagome said.
The others looked at eachother, Miroku sighed. He pulled off some leaves from a low
branched tree and threw it on the water. They all watched as the leaves sunk under it on its
own. ' Why would something, that's so light sink under water? ' Kagome asked herself.
She made a smoke bomb appear on her hand and threw it on the ground.
The others, Miroku and Sango gasped, Inuyasha coughed from the smell and Hatake jumped
on a tree where he could see everybody except Kagome. He searched one more time and got
the same results. " Kagome's missing. " He said, everyone heard it.
And when the smoke cleared, they all yelled out her name, only to have her reply...
" I'm here, Minna-san ! " She yelled, they looked up and saw her at the cliff.
For a moment they wondered how she got there but just shrugged it off, as she walked away to
only appear from view while jumping off the cliff and direclty in the water.
The others stared, she was falling in a slow motion type of way. Her bag not on her shoulders.
She made a rather loud splash when she did fall in. Others yelled her name but of course she
couldn't here them in that loud splash.
-- With Kagome Under Water --
She had her eye's opened all the time she fell and heard the splash.
Now, she couldn't believe what she was seeing as she looked further down the water.
It was still very deep despite that she had fell in from a high place, it had skeletons of humans
and demons alike. There were several small boats about 7 of them.
The skeletons were being held by green water vines, she saw some bones were crushed, there
were weapons of all kind stuck to the bottom of the water, some skeletons hands were
hanging on to some of it. But what really caught Kagome's eye were, about several about 4
treasure chests, as she noticed what it looked like treasure kinds of chests.
Vines were guarding it securely by all tanggling themselves at it.
With all of this, marveling, Kagome didn't notice that vines started approaching her.
One gripped her neck, two gripped her wrists, and two gripped her legs. Dragging her to the
bottom of the almost bottomles body of water.
-- With the others above --
" What should we do !? " Sango asked, frantic to what might happen to her friend.
The others were doing some brain storming when second passed, a red glowing energy chain
came out of the water. And did a turn to grip the tree near them.
While they were looking at where the chain gripped, they jerked their heads back to see
Kagome in a motion of looking like she was jumping out of the tree, the chain was gettting
shorter and shorter as she neared the edge of the water and quickly climbed out of the water
while spitting out water and breathing kind of hard for air. When the others got their senses
back, they immediately went to her.
" What happened Kagome? " Sango asked, after her breathing was normal.
" You should've seen it Sango ! It was so great anf freakish at the same time... but I'm
definitely going back in there! " Kagome said, one vined arm raised to show how much fun.
Everyone had a sweat drops on their heads, Kagome was indeed weird and proven.
" You nearly get drowned and you want to go back? " Hatake asked.
" Well,...yeah. And Sango-chan can I use your sword? " Kagome asked.
" Okay Kagome-chan. Here. ( Throws Kagome the sword ) " Sango answered.
Kagome caught the sword and was going to dip her feet in the water when one of the ghosts
she saw earlier come up to her. She wanted to just ignore it but it kept touching her, it's cold
and misty hand actually touching her flesh. Kagome had been seeing ghosts her whole life but
none of them actually approached her and wanted to talk to her. To ghosts, they could sense
people alive that can help them but were afraid of them because the person might take them
away. At least that's what and how the ghosts in her time take it to ignoring her.
But she kept ignoring it none the less. Until, / SPLASH / Kagome was pushed off the edge and
in to the water, but she immediately got up to the edge.
" What was that for !? " She yelled, glaring into to ghost infront of Inuyasha who was clueless
" What?! I didn't do anything. " Inuyasha too blurted out much like Kagome.
You weren't paying attention to me. was the ghosts answer in her head.
" Wh-what am I suppose to say? Your a ghost. " Kagome slightly stuttered, new to the voice's
misty feeling in her head. The others too felt a chill as Kagome started speaking.
" What is it Kagome? " Hatake asked, looking at her.
I just wanted to tell you something...but since you don't want to know about the trasure...
The ghost said in Kagome's mind and started leaving. Kagome while cursing her curiousness
grabbed the ghosts wrist and asked him what treasure was he talking about.
The others just stared at her as she grabbed air, and her hand looked like it was holding
something in it by the way it was shaped. The others looked at each other.
As I was trying to say, I lost a sword there when I was drowned by the vines. You're the only
one who got out of there for the long, long time that I have been here. There's a sword there.
My sword actually. Find it and keep it for me will you... The ghost said as he floated and
started towards the sky. Kagome followed him with her gaze as he did.
" Kagome-sama? " Miroku asked.
" Nothing Miroku. Just another ghost. " Kagome answered and murmured the last part.
But with Inuyasha's keen hearing and Hatake's trained one..they heard it clear.
" Anyways, don't go in the water. You'll get dragged further in by those vines. " She added.
And jumped into the water once more after taking a deep breath.
The others just watched her after hours, coming up and down from the water. She brought up
vines everytime she did but no matter wahat, there was no Shikon Jewel.
The others got tired of watching, so Miroku, Sango and Inuyasha just went back to the village
while Hatake stayed, watching Kagome from a tree he was in. And the kit was hiding in a
bush also watching her.
With the spirit detectives Early in the Morning
Kurama woke up, going to the bathroom and washing his face while hearing the sounds of the
swishing of a sword. Knowing Hiei was already up, he also went out the temple to train.
" Goodmorning Hiei. " Kurama greeted the fire apparation.
" Hn. " Was his only reply as he contiuned training.
So Kurama voluntered to spar with his and he accepted.
Moments later, screams were heard. As Genkai woke the idiot and the dimwit by throwing
cold water on them coming from a bucket full of water.
They went out and ran around the temple.
" Goodmorning Yusuke, Kuwabara. " Kurama greeted.
" What's so good about the morning? " Yusuke asked as he continued running while drenched
with water. Kuwabara on the other hand just leaned on the wall and started snoring again.
" Ohayo minna-san. " Yukina greeted, stepping out of the door.
" Ohayo Yukina. " Kurama greeted back.
" Hn. "
Kuwabara as if in reflex immediately woke up and started running as fast as he could and
showed off. He stopped by Yukina's side. " Goodmorning my Yukina. " He greeted.
" Goodmorning. " She greeted back.
Hiei was growling in the back but only Kurama heard.
-- After Lunch --
Thy were all outside, minus Yukina nd Genkai.
" Why hasn't the toddler called us yet? " Yusuke asked, agitated.
" Do you think that Kagome might have not been transported back in time? " Kurama asked.
The others looked at him almost questioningly at his statement.
" What are you saying Kurama? " Kuwabara asked.
" Baka. He's saying that Kagome might be here somewhere. " Yusuke answered.
He looked at Kurama for a moment and narrowed his eyes at him.
" How and why are you saying that Kurama? Are you hiding something? " He asked.
" No Yusuke. I'm not hiding something. But think about it, Kagome can well hide her scent if
she wants to. Like what Aki said, she can do almost anything. What if she just have a problem
or something , maybe with her friends? A guy? Family? " Kurama explained.
Everyone looked at him again, now Hiei had an idefinite look, Yusuke had a look that even
the author can describe and Kuwabara had question marks on his head in an anime style.
" Kurama....., for the first time..... you Don't make sense. " Yusuke stated, his right arm over
Kurama's shoulder in an almost brotherly manner. As he started speaking.
" Kurama, even I know that, for 1, Kagome don't make friends at her school, 2, she doesn't
like guys like her Fans told us, 3, she loves her family." Yusuke explained in a ' DUH ' way.
Kurama sighed, he had to stop worrying or it'll just affect him.
But it wasn't that easy with Youko speaking in his head.
" Your right. It's just that..Youko wouldn't stop...bothering me. " He said in defeat.
The Next Day in Fedual Era
Kagome woke up bright and early as always. Yesterday about nightfall when she came home
she looked like a prune and she wouldn't have went back to the village if Hatake didn't insist.
" G'morning everybody. " She greeted.
" Goodmorning Kagome-chan. " Sango greeted back.
" Goodmorning Kagome-sama. " Miroku greeted, his right hand travelling to grope Sango
" Feh. " Inuyasha's greeting.
" Morning Kagome. " greeted Hatake with a beaming smile hidden under the cloth on his
face. " Why are you all up so early? " She asked. Looking at them.
" Were not-- HENTAI !!! " Sango yelled as he bonked Miroku with her Hiraikotsu.
" As I was saying, were not up earlier than you normally do Kagome. It's just that you
overslept a little, I guess your body was so tired of swimming, it robbed you in your sleep. "
Sango explained, with a concerned smile on her face.
" Oh. Well, I'm going to the waterfall now. Anyone want to come? " Kagome stated then
asked as she stood up. After a sec, Hatake stood up. Volunteering.
" Okay then Hata-kun. I think, I almost enchanted all those stupid vines. " She said.
They both went out the hut and walked to the waterfall. They ran so instead of it taking 7 long
hours, it only took half an hour with their incredible speed.
Kagome jumped right into the huge body of water the fall made, while Hatake just jumped on
the ground and on a tree.
Moments later, Kagome got out off the water.
" Come on ! Hata-kun, I enchanted the vines so they wouldn't drown us. " Kagome yelled
over to the tree that Hatake was in. He jumped down and stripped off his black ninja top
clothing, revealing his bare chest, he also removed the mask on his face and his boots like
shoes. He without warning jumped in the water, splashing Kagome's face with a wave.
She put her hands up to her face and wiped the much not needed water.
She pointed to the water and dived in, followed by Hatake.
What Hatake saw made him marvel the same way Kagome did.
But he didn't look at it longer, he turned his eyes to Kagome who was swimming down further
in the water and he followed. She pointed a finger on a treasure chest and Hatake nodded.
They held the chest with both hands and brought up the chest as quickly as they can.
" Lets open it. " Kagome suggested. She grab a hold of the lock and opened it with her ninja
throwing knife. Inside were garments, special garments.
Kagome quirked one eyebrow, the garments inside the wooden chest were perfectly dry.
" Any idea Kagome? " Hatake asked.
Kagome just shook her head. She examined all the garments, while doing so, something metal
fell on her lap. She looked, it was a golden necklace. Almost egyptian style, it had squares,
they , ( the squares ) were alligned small to big and from that next to the big, the squares were
getting smaller. Like small to big, big to small the squares alligned. There were only 5
squares, 5 squares made of gold, alligned. The string was also gold. All in all, the necklace
looked like it belonged to a princess or it was for a princess.
She tried it on..and fingered the jewelry.
" It suits you. " was Hatakes comment.
That made Kagome's head snap back up at him and smiled a thank you smile.
Kagome found some kimonos she liked and putted them in her backpack.
Hatake found an all black garment and kept it somewhere...
Then, they dived some more and retreived some more treasure chests.
They found and took some things that they liked and after they're done, they threw the chests
back in the water. They dived in once more.
Kagome pointed towards the different weapons and Hatake nodded in understanding.
They spent hours digging and pulling wepons under the water and in the sand and they
tossed some of the weapons they didn't want again in the water and kept some that they
wanted. But there was one sword Kagome can't help but hold on to.
" Hata-kun, look. " Kagome stated, holding the sword and fingering something in its hilt.
The sword was called a ' Long sword. ' Hence the name, the sword was long, partly thick and
slightly wide. Much like the sword warriors use during wars. Except, it's black hilt had perfect
3 circle holes in it. It was like holes for small spheres like....the shikon no tama.
It was just about the size of the shikon no tama, almost exact.
" What is it Kagome? " Hatake asked, with a curious facade on his face.
Kagome in answer just threw him the sword she had found and after he examined it, he had
the same questoning look as Kagome but she just shrugged it off and once again dived in.
They had found all but the shikon no tama.
But Kagome didn't give up, she kept looking and looking until she saw something sparkle like
the shikon no tama did, she immediately swam up to it in excitement but only found out that it
wasn't the jewel. It was yellow and transparent, shiny and sparkling but it wasn't the jewel.
The small sphere also had the symbol for ' Water ' on it in black.
Kagome rose up from the water and saw Hatake also found a sphere like hers.
Only it was silver and the symbol written on it was ' Thunder ' but the size, shape, texture and
color of the symbol were the same as hers.
Kagome showed him hers and they exchanged glances.
" What do you think they're for Hata-kun? " Kagome asked.
Hatake however, had his hands up in an ' I don't know ' answer. Then, he suddenly left only to
come back with nylon strings ( transparent like strings ) that Kagome assumed were for the
spheres and she was right. Hatake tied the strings on the spheres like gem stones and he
wore the sphere he found and he gave Kagome her sphere after he tied the string to it.
" Arigatou Hata-kun. But can I have your too? " Kagome asked.
" Hmmm....let me think....No. " He answered with a sly smile.
" Huh? Why? " Kagome asked again, putting on the sphere necklace and removing the
egyptian like golden necklace she had found earlier and stuffed it into her backpack.
" Well,...I like to see you plead. But I still won't give this to you. " Hatake answered.
Gesturing to his sphere. Kagome just pouted at him and started brushing her hair while
Hatake just laughed at her face, when Kagome finished brushing her hair, she tensed.
There was a demon, a strong demon. In Makai, he probably be an 'A' class demon.
When a minute passed of seeing Kagome tense, Hatake too felt the demon that was coming.
He and Kagome stood up straight, still dripping wet from their long swim.
When the demon came in the clearing,... Kagome noticed something..
-- SO, Should I end it here? I mean, this is long enough for an Extra Long chapter isn't it? So
can I stop here now? Should I ? Nah ! I think I'll add up some more.. --
The demon infront of them had long silver hair, pointed ears, markings on his face and he also
was holding the small kit Kagome had always seen and once saved. Kagome narrowed her
eyes at him. He glared in response. ' So this was the half brother Inuyasha didn't want to talk
about? This is the brother he despised? ' Kagome thought and asked herself.
" You demon. Put down the little guy ! " Kagome yelled/told him.
The demon just looked at her, up and down with his eyes and Kagome growled.
He in response just threw the kit at her in an angry force and Kagome, being on the edge of
the waterfall, fell down in the water. Kagome immediately got up from the water.
" You demon! Don't you dare expect that I'd respect you after you treated me like that ! "
She yelled at him and it was enough to make the demon angry.
" Human, you and your companion are in my lands. " He said through gritted teeth.
" And? You're going to kill us? Sorry, I don't respect demon lords who tries to kill their
brother just because their half human ! " She yelled at him. He was slightly taken a back.
Then being focused on anger, Kagome spaced out and all she could see were slow motion as
the demon lord punched her hard in the stomach and now, she was under water in pain.
" Darn it. " Kagome said to herself under water as she made bubbles from speaking.
Then, she saw Hatake coming towards her, worry clearly showing on his face. So Kagome
positioned herself and swam up to him and they both came up at the edge.
" Human, you will pay for insulting this Sesshoumaru. " the demon said as he flexed his 2
hands with fingers and deadly claws glowing a slimy green color from the poison.
Clearly seeing the challenge, Kagome smiled and magically got out her throwing knives.
" Kagome- " Hatake tried to say.
" Do me a favor Hata-kun. Try to keep out of our fight until I'm or he's dead. " Kagome
announced, cutting off what Hatake had to say. The battle began.
Kagome attacked with speed but Sesshoumaru, like Hiei was faster than her.
But she had a chance, only the punch he landed on her stomach still hurts a little.
Still, she held her throwing knives in her hands. Sesshoumaru just stood there, unmoving.
When she attacked, Sesshoumaru just stepped out of the way hitted Kagome at the back with
his other hand. She landed on the ground, crashing into the ground while Sesshoumaru just
stared at her on the ground while he brushed some strands of his hair from that had moved to
his face from the 'whizz' fastnest of the attack. Kagome immediately stood up, and jumped far
away from the demon. " You know, Inuyasha always says that your a bastard brother. "
Kagome stated, throwing her throwing knives at Sesshoumaru while him dodging and
answering. " Well, he is right. And that is what I also think of him only lower. "
Kagome positioned her hands in a ninja manner in front of her chest and murmured some
incantation with different language. Then, she stepped into the tree's shadow, she disappeared
and now, Sesshoumaru cannot seem to track her scent. After all, that was what the incantation
was for as Sesshoumaru presumed. His eyes darting left and right for any movement.
He heard a wizz coming and immediately got out his whip and hitted it before it hit him in the
abdomen. Then, more of them came 6 at a time. But still he took them down.
In the shadows, Kagome started running as fast as she could and threw 6 shurikens, coming
from different directions. About half an hour of this, she managed to hit Sesshoumaru with 24
shurikens in his body. ' I can only throw 6 purifying shurikens and out of about 80 shurikens I
threw him. That's not good. I can't take a chance of getting killed by a demon. ' Kagome
thought. Stepping out of the shadows to meet an angry demon lord.
Kagome just smiled at him. " Does it hurt? " She asked, sarcastically.
Sesshoumaru however replied by attacking her with speed Kagome didn't see, and now, she
was pinned to a tree with one clawed hand, the other was positioned and ready to kill her.
" So-, yo-you want to kill me? Well....tough luck ! " Kagome said as she held the demon lords
wrist and her hand glowed red and the demon lord quickly dropped her, releasing his hand.
Sesshoumaru's wrists were red and the power that jolted into him was no joke.
Kagome stood up straight, her hands still glowing red.
' If I can't shoot him with my shurikens, I'll punch it to him....carefully. ' She thought.
" Miko.." was what Sesshoumaru said as Kagome's hands stopped glowing and she charged
once again at him, but now, he fought back. Kagome punched and kicked non stop for past
half an hour until she smelled something and was distracted, thus, earning her a punch.
Hatake was getting worried by the minute, but Kagome told him not to interfere until she was
dead but of course, he'll help when he notice that she can't fight anymore.
The little pup Kagome had saved the second time was running back to them at the waterfall,
he had just been to Kaede's village and it was under attack by a phoenix youkai.
The pup reached Hatake and told him what happened, Kagome heard it all.
" Hata-kun just go ! I can handle this. " She said while dodging some punches.
" But-" He proded.
" Just go ! " She yelled, turning to him and earning another punch in the stomach.
He nodded and ran back to the village with the pup in his arms.
Sesshoumaru was pissed, he was bleeding from several places in his body.
The miko wasn't even purifying him, which he was slightly grateful for.
He stopped attacking when she hit the tree due to the impact of his punch.
He unsheated Toukijin and prepared to attack as the girl jumped up.
Kagome searched for something quick, darting left and right she saw the long sword by her
feet but before she could grab it, Sesshoumaru attacked. And she had his sword between her
hands right before it cut open her skull and she end up dead and never seeing her friends.
She tried breaking the sword but it was too thick and hard so she ended up throwing it out of
her face and quickly, she stepped on the long swords hilt by her feet and caught it with her
hands just in time to defend herself from the demon lords own sword.
' I have to get to the others. ' Was her thought as the Inu youkai jumped away.
Kagome just stared at him intently, he pointed his sword at her.
Then, sparks of energy came hurtling at her. Kagome, startled by this got hit by the energy. It
pierced her flesh, her fishnet sleeves torn all over, her legs had several long cuts.
Kagome was just pissed. " You, look what you did !This was my favorite shirt ! " She yelled.
She charged, swords clashed as they became in contact by the force of the hit.
' How can a human have so much energy? ' Sesshoumaru thought, slightly curious.
It had been an hour and a half after they started the fight and she still is as fast before.
The fought sword to sword, in an equal, but when the scent of fire and smoke filled her nose,
Kagome couldn't help but turn her head to the smell and Sesshoumaru had the chance to slash
at her stomach and he did, but Kagome dodged it slightly. Very slightly that on her stomach
was a long and slightly deep gash of blood, she winced at the immense pain that jolted through
her body from the wound and added to the fact that she was still wet, it was unbearable.
" Your friends would be dead by the time you get there. " He said.
Kagome's head jerked back up to look at him, her eye's screamed pain. But not for herself, it
was for her friends. Kagome, just glared at him. Her eye's turning and glowing all blue forgot
about her wound and held the sword tight around her hands and charged at him.
Slowly, Kagome started beating him and ended up in a position of the sword pointing to his
neck while she was on top of him in a sitting position.
" You know, one time, when Inuyasha and the others were asleep. I overheard him when he
was talking in his sleep. He was saying.. ' I wish I was Youkai, so maybe when I was born,
Sesshoumaru would've accepted me so I wouldn't have left the castle when mother died and
maybe, Sesshoumaru would be proud of me. ' that's what he said. And you know, if I were you,
I would have accepted him for what he is, he's really sweet and maybe if you changed, and
you wouldn't try to kill him then maybe you two can be brothers again not enemy's. " She
said, glowing blue eye's slowly fading. Then jumped out of him, grabbed her backpack and ran
to the village. Sesshoumaru, to say was stunned was an understatement.
He growled, he had just been beaten by a human, a female human that was still early in years.
He stood up, clutching his wounds and running as fast as he can while an image of glowing
blue eye's appeared on his head.
But no one noticed that Kagome's necklace was also glowing the time her eye's did.
Kagome was running back to the village as fast as she can while holding her sword on her
right hand while her left hand clutched her wound on her stomach.
She only had two more purifying shurikens she can use without possible danger.
' Please, just for once. Let me not be late. ' She said in her mind.
" So what is it toddler!? Where's Kagome?! " Yusuke demanded.
They were called to rescue Kagome as Botan had said.
" Get ready to transport back in time. Kagome had been transported to , the main land and
time where Miko's and Monks are. " Koenma stated as he pressed a button.
" Fedual Era. " was what Aki murmured.
And now, they were currently falling in a time portal.
What Kagome saw made her freeze.
The village, some of it were covered with fire. The people were all on one side of the forest,
near where she was . They were just staring as the village continue to burn down.
The others were trying to get close to the flying phoenix youkai but it was breathing fire all
over them. Inuyasha was still trying and so as the others but Kagome saw no improvement.
They landed next to her and asked about the wounds but she changed topic.
" Why did that youkai went here? " she asked, her eyes not leaving the youkai.
" It wants to eat, it's hungry. " Miroku explained, sitting in front of the people.
He was conjuring some spell so the youkai didn't see the village people.
" Kagome, that wound is still wide open ! You're gonna die, if you don't sit still ! " Sango
stated, seeing her wound. Kagome didn't pay attention.
" Inuyasha, give me your haori ! There's still someone in there ! " Kagome exclaimed as she
immediately putted on his haori after he grabbed it out of he's body.
Inuyasha's haori reached just inches below her waist.
She jumped over the flames, and entered a small hut.
There was a little girl crying, she had on an orange and white kimono her hair was on a
ponytail on one side. She hugged the little girl then jumped out on the roof, her arm on their
heads as the fire rat haori protected them.
Kagome gave the little kid to one of the villagers and grabbed some bow and arrows.
" Kagome, how are you going to shoot that thing? It's too far up. " Hatake stated.
" Just watch Hata-kun. And please don't stand too close. " Kagome stated.
------
Kagome poised the bow and arrow down by her legs.
She started chanting but not before looking left and right, at the villagers with a worried face.
" The village is down, ( looks at the phoenix demon up )
The fire is up. ( Starts raising the bow and arrow )
Oh mighty arrow, ( the bow and arrow starts glowing red )
Hit the target with all your might. ( bow and arrow completely raised. )
With this power I grant you flight ! ( Fires the arrow and the demon turns towards it ) "
Kagome chanted, her voice was low, just saying it to herself but all the villagers heard it.
Kagome just stayed standing, her body glowed red with miko energy as the arrow zoomed
faster to it's target. Kagome positioned her hands in a ninja fashion, she started glowing
brighter, the shpere hanging on her neck glowing blue ( no one noticed ) , she started to chant,
now in different language. Then, a large body of water tided , floating over the still burning
village. Everyone was amazed, the arrow was zooming towards the demon like a shooting star.
The large body of water became neutral, the demon was killed, and the water covered the
village to put out the fire. Still, they all looked up except Kagome, at the demon as it roared in
pain, birght red fireworks erupted in the sky. It was now late in the afternoon.
This was the scene the whole spirit detective team saw and also Kagome's brother.
( They saw everything starting from the ----- line I putted up there. the closest of course. )
When the magical light from the sky faded, everyone looked to see Kagome falling down
forward with a smile on her face. But before she made contact with the ground, Hatake's
strong arms held her. The other Inuyasha crew moved forward to help her.
When Miroku left his sealing position on the ground, the spirit detectives move forward.
The villagers got scared and moved away and went to the woods.
" What do you want? " Inuyasha growled at them, sword raised.
" We came for Kagome, I'm her older brother. " Aki stated.
This got heads turned toward them, Inuyasha sniffed and it was confirmed.
The spirit detective group went to Kagome, Hatake gave her bloody body to him.
" This is bad. Almost all of her life energy is gone. But how can it take all her energy to fight
that middle class demon? " asked Aki to the other spirit detectives.
" We, Kagome and me were at the waterfalls, she was swimming all day when the Lord of the
west decided to show up and kill us. She fought him and then someone alerted us the village
was attacked, she said I had to go and..I did-- " Hatake was cut-off.
" And you left her alone !? " asked a golden eyed Kurama.
The sd's were shocked but brushed it off when golden eye's came to view.
" No. Please continue. " Aki said through gritted teeth. Apparantly mad at his sister.
" When I left, I don't know what happened. But when I left her, she was in good condition
then-- " Hatake was once again cut-off.
" I don't need to hear it. We saw the rest. ( standing up with Kagome in his hands. ) It is just
like my sister to sacrifice for others, she is always like this. And she would of died for others,
even an enemy. We have to go and get her treated. " Aki said as they made Botan open a
portal form the future. " Where are you taking her? " was Sango's question.
They all looked away, knowing the answer.
" We will be treating her at a friends house in the future. " Aki answered.
" Bu-but can't you just cure her here? " Sango asked, teary-eyed.
Aki looked at the others, they shook their heads.
" No, she will be better cured there. " Aki answered again.
" Can she come back? " Inuyasha asked, looking away.
" No, I'm afraid that she can't get back here on her own. It was only an accident. " The
emerald eye'd Kurama answered appologetically.
Sango broke down crying in Miroku's haori like clothes.
They were about to jump in the portal when...
" Wait. " Hatake said. He took off the necklace that Kagome had earlier wanted.
( The shpere one. )
" Tell her, I'm sorry I didn't give it to her earlier. And that I'll miss her a lot. " Hatake stated
as he putted the necklace around her neck and then jumped/ran away.
" Us too. Please tell Kagome-sama we will miss her. " were Miroku's goodbye, as a tear ran
down his cheek and her went to some few meters away.
Sango just unntied her ribbon and tied it on Kagome's wrist. And gave them her bag.
" There, that's Kagomes things. " She said as she went to the woods.
" Just tell her she can keep my haori and that I'm glad he beated my bastard brother. " was
what the voice said from the faced around Inu hanyou as he too ran somewhere.
" Tell Kagome-sama we are greatful she saved our village. " was what Kaede said.
" Um, please tell Kagome-chan thank you for saving Rin from the fire. " was what a little girl
said as she rubbed her eyes full of tears.
" Tell her I'm sorry that I took the jewel, I'm sorry that I got her in the fight with the demon
lord and thank you for saving me twice even though I was mean. " was what a little kit said.
They jumped in the portal, Kuwabara said he was ' touched '
They arrived at Genkai's temple about 6:30 pm.

. . . .
made them EXTRA LONG just like I promised and sorry if it took a little long but it's your
fault too ! Some of you are not reviewing and I started typing when I posted the last chapter.
So let's start with your extra long chapter !!
Chapter 4 = Kagome's worst or best days ever?
It was early in the morning about 6am and Kagome was at the bone eaters well, staring down
at it and glancing back and forth to it and the necklace around her neck.
Her hands on the lip of the well were gripping it tightly almost crushing it with the force and
effort while glaring in the depths of the well, then she sighed a long deep sigh.
She turned on her heel and started walking to her favorite river, okay so she only saw it
yesterday but she decided it was. She needed a bath, since yesterday she didn't have one.
Inuyasha and the others except Hatake who was gone were eating breakfast, since they
hadn't eaten since last night but she really didn't mind skipping breakfast too.
Halfway to her favorite river, she heard a howl a cry for help howl of an animal.
She didn't waste anytime and started running, the howl seemed about 5 hours to the west,
nearing the end of her favorite river where she heard a waterfall but then, the howl directed
away from it and into the woody forest. She was now at the west territory of Inuyasha's
half brother and she knew that if she stayed longer, she'd be hunted down by him.
" Tch. It's not like he's going to beat me.....can he? " Kagome asked in a whisper.
She could smell and sense the little fellow now, and from the smell of the air, it wasn't hurt at
all. She could smell no blood and no other demon or creature that could be any harm.
Then, she saw a small fox demon in a clearing. He looked tired, that's for sure.
Kagome then made her presence known and she stepped out behind the tree she was in.
The small fox demons head snapped up to see her face, he stood up and ran to her.
Kagome bent down to meet his eye level, he plastered something on her forehead, but of
course Kagome saw it coming. She just didn't do anything to spoil the child.
The small fox demon just stared at her wide eyed as she removed the ofuda like paper on her
forehead and she smiled at the small demon almost apologetically.
" Sorry, I'm a miko and I can easily erase your writings on the ofudas you use. " She said as
she showed the kit the now blank ofuda that once had black writting in them.
The little demon child just ran off to hide in a tree, him knowing that humans find it hard to
climb trees found it perfect to hide in. Kagome just smiled and turned around making her
leave as curious emerald eyes followed her presence as she did so.
' The Shikon no tama. If I get it I can bring mama and dada back to life. ' The little fox demon
thought as she continued following the mysterious, human ' miko '.
Kagome walked back to her favorite river and once there, she removed her boots, her back
pack and stood on top of the boulder and jumped in the 1 and a 1/2 meter deep rivers water.
( Is that too deep? Or too shallow? )
And swam until she couldn't anymore. And by the time she was done, it was already about
10am, perfect for drying off under the warm sun. And of course it was just perfect for the skin,
concerning that there weren't almost any air polluters in the fedual era unlike the city.
When she was all dried off, she putted her boots back on, brushed her hair neatly and putted it
on back it's high ponytail and also her backpack strapped on her back.
As she made her way back to the village, the little kit still following her as she did so.
But she didn't pay attention to him, she just went on and on and saw the others
They didn't know where she was, but they went to her house once again and being lucky, there
was someone home. Well all that they felt were home, except they didn't sense or smelled
Kagome near their house except these last days but hopping they would get an answer, they
knocked and it happened so fast in their eye's that all in a split second, they can't move.
All of them had ofudas on their chests and their gaze went up to the person responsible and
saw Kagome's older brother thought Kurama, Kuwabara and Yusuke who had met him before.
Hiei had just glared at him, thinking that the human infront of him should die for doing what
was done. The human, Kagome's older brother returned him the glare, glaring right back at
him just as intently or much more 'cause his eye's held incredible anger and a tint of sadness.
But only a small speck compared to the anger in them, then, an old man and a woman in her
30's walked from behind him. Sporting the glare he also had in his eyes towards them.
Both demons eye's were caught on the thing on Kagome's brothers shoulders, it was white
paper, with black ancient writings and green cover on the outside. It was a sutra, demons all
around Makai that were class B and up know about this. The Monks and Miko's who possess
it generally called it the ' Heavens Sutra ' it was and is used to purify all demons alike or
humans with an evil soul. It was said that the sutra chooses its master and that it has a mind of
it's own. And as of now, the sutra was hanging on Aki, Kagome's brothers shoulder. It was
hanging like when you have a towel, and you generally hang it around your neck but the ends
hand just above your chest. The old man was holding ofudas on his hand, each had the
symbols of elements in them. The woman was holding arrows on one hand and a katana on the
other, both glowing a faint blue color as she held it tight, knuckles white.
" What have you done with Kagome? " Were their only question as they glared harder.
They had used a Time Freezing spell to make them still and put the ofudas.
After a minute, they found out that they could speak and speak they did.
" What do you mean !? We're looking for her?! " Yusuke blurted out, his hand was tired of
holding the position of knocking on the door. He was the one who knocked.
" You didn't take her? " Aki asked agitated as he sensed that the guy wasn't lying and took
off the ofudas as he turned around and faced his family with a still angry look.
" Dear, maybe its one of her other demon friends? " the middle aged woman asked, as she
turned her head away in the suggestion, ashamed of something. Obviously.
" Mom what do you mean?! I told her those demons can't be trusted ! It's her fault that she's
missing ! She never listens to me and now that when I'm right I'm the one who gets worried,
I'm the one responsible ! I'm her older brother and don't even have a clue to where she is ! Or
if she's hurt ! She had never been gone in less than a day when it comes to those demons and
now I'm worried and I can't even do a thing to help ! " Yelled a worried older brother.
The spirit detectives just stood there, in concern to the worried guy was intense.
With Hiei however, he didn't and won't admit but what the human said struck something in
him, that was what exactly he felt when he learned that he had a little sister.
" Excuse me but what do you mean? How was she missing? " asked Kurama.
His eye's had some specks of gold in them, meaning that Youko wanted to get out.
Aki turned around, the anger still in his eyes but only half the portion was left, considering
that the other half was greatly taken by worry for the younger sibling.
" The day before yesterday, after you three ( Kurama, Yusuke and Kuwabara ) visited, she
had been gone and she didn't come back. ( Heads to the well, others followed. ) I felt the wells
power open, ( opens the shed ) I saw the ofudas from it tore away and this is where I last
sensed Kagome and with another demon that must be one of her friends. So I assumed it was
you ( points at Kurama ) and I also looked for her all over but I didn't see her anywhere. "
He explained, glaring at the well as if demanding it for answers to the whereabouts.
Kurama and the others looked around the small shed, checking for clues.
Hiei was just darting his eyes back and forth and was walking around slightly.
Until he stepped on something, rather pointy but since he was walking slowly, it didn't do any
damage to him. He kneeled down, the thing he stepped on was metal, he was going to pick it
up but noticed that it was bigger and that the other portion of it was burried beneath the
ground soil. So, he stuck his hand a little further down the ground and pulled the thing.
It was a shuriken, it couldn't be old, it was still shining black as he held it with his thumb and
index finger and if it was old it should be dull and it should have rusts in its edges.
Yusuke, Kuwabara and Kurama noticed him kneeling on the ground and decided to check out
what it was he was doing. Also kneeling on knee on the ground their eye's traveled to what
Hiei was holding in his hand. " Hiei, where did you get that? " Kurama asked.
" Under the ground. It was partly burried, it's in condition. " Hiei said as he tossed Kurama
the ninja star ( shuriken ) who immediately examined it and went up the stairs followed by the
others towards Kagome's family. Kurama showed them the black shining ninja star.
He handed it to Aki, who examined it with one look and nodded in his confirmation.
" That's one of Kagome's shuriken, she always uses it to purify demons instead of the
traditional bow and arrows or Katana. " He explained as he gripped the shuriken, drawing his
own blood all over his hand. But didn't seem to notice until.....
" I think that Kagome fought a demon, after all, there shouldn't be any blood or bones if she
purified it and the ashes from the said demon could've already mixed with the ground soil. But
what confuses me is that, her scent ended inside the well and she must've got inju-- " Kurama
was cut-off, before he could even finish.
" No. Kagome can't get injured jumping inside a well. She's been jumping on and off large tall
buildings ever since she was 7years old. And if the demon caused it, she could've easily
chanted a time freezing spell to land softly or she could've used one of her energy chains and
easily made it implant on the roof to not fall. There are many reasons and ways that she could
not possibly fall in there. And on top of those, that well is magical in it's own way. " Aki said.
That made them think for a while until Kurama spoke again.
" What do you mean by ' magical in it's own way ' ? " He asked, his curiousness surfacing.
" That well and the large tree outside has been here for centuries. It has been blessed
through out those past time by famous and legendary monks and mikos that time and it
gained some of the energy and in proof, it continues to give it off. " Aki once again explained
as he removed the ofuda that he had just placed the day Kagome went missing.
And when he completely removed it, the well indeed was emitting a strange energy life force.
He went to the tree nearby and removed the string of seals attached to it and just like the well
it emmited the same strange energy. The Reikai tanteis looked at each other for a while.
" It is also said that, the legendary well known as the Bone eaters well, wants it to let the
others know the pleasure of the more glorious life in the past. And that the well might just be a
time travelling device to the past where it has more peace. " Aki said, getting their attention.
" Knowing my grand daughter, she is curious and likes to get into an adventure every once in
a while. If the demon she had defeated came out of the well, she had most likely jumped in
herself to know more about it. But also knowing her, she wouldn't make us worry just to have
her fun and there is more likely a problem. " said the old man, his eyes closed.
" But when it's likely in battles, Kagome can with stand almost everything in her way.
Specially when she's in one of her pissed off mood or when it comes to demons. " The middle
aged woman stated, one of her fingers pointing to her chin in a thinking manner with a kind of
sour feature etched on her face as she remembered some of those days she was speaking off.
" We know someone who can help. " Kurama suddenly said, getting the others attention.
" Who? Another demon? " Aki asked, stretching the demon part.
" No, he's more like a demi-god.....( insert about Koenma here. ) " Kurama explained.
" Then, I'll come too. Mom and Jii-chan you have to stay here and see if she might come back
and tell me. ( both adult nods ) " Aki said after registering the information.
Kurama looked at the other spirit detectives, they looked at each other and just shrugged.
" Okay then. Let's go Yusuke, call Botan to open a portal for us. " Kurama said.
Yusuke did as what his companion and friend told him and Botan opened up a portal to Spirit
World for them to talk to the toddler prince of Reikai as Yusuke had thought.
-- Inside Koenma's Office --
" Yo Toddler ! " Yusuke greeted, seeing Koenma's fuming face made him snicker.
" Yusuke ! I told you not to call me that specially when we have a guest ! " The prince of
Reikai yelled while glaring at his hired spirit detective. He then changed into his teenage form
and straightened out and coughed up a little for his voice to come in.
" So, let me guess. Kagome decided to quit because of Genkai's training? " He asked.
Aki raised an eyebrow at the prince' statement.
" That's what I was thinking. " Yusuke murmured, Koenma glared at him.
" Actually Koenma, Kagome is missing and there is an outside demon occured. " Kurama
stated calmly. Koenma however had his mouth hung open and he accidentally changed into his
toddler form again while going through files, sweat running down his chin from nervousness.
" Koenma, I'm Aki, Kagome's older Monk brother. And she might have been brought to
some time period by the bone eaters well that my family had sealed long ago that was
accidentally been opened by removing the ofudas stripped to it, keeping it sealed. You have to
find her right away or she might be hurt. " Aki stated, his hands on Koenma's desk.
The young toddler relaxed at hearing that a Miko/Monk family were the one that kept the
well sealed and he sighed, and looked like he was thinking hard.
" Hey, what happened? Why is Koenma making that face? " Kuwabara asked.
Everyone looked at him, Kurama had a small sweat drop on his head, Hiei looked like he was
trying hard not to do something, Aki had several sweat drops on his head and Yusuke bonked
Kuwabara hard on the head and both of them started bickering...again.
Koenma just kept thinking, but his eye's were looking at the two spirit detectives bickering.
" First of all, if Kagome had returned time, she can be at least 1000 years back or more. It
will take some time to locate her if she really is lost in time somewheres. " Koenma
explained, heads turning to him. " Wait, is this another case? " Yusuke asked.
" Of course. But you will stay in training until we get some feedback. " Koenma answered.
Yusuke was about to blurt out something but Koenma beat him to it by asking something.
" I know Kagome will be found. But why don't you take her place? You may be stronger? "
" I won't admit I said this but, Kagome is definitely stronger than me in all ways than another
like for example in speed and also in using purifying energy. " Aki answered.
Koenma just sighed. He really didn't like the idea of letting a girl join the tournament.
Of course Genkai is a girl but the age difference is about all that matter if girl or not.
Especially with those perverted lower class demons out there.
" Very well then. You all may go, I will inform you if there is anything new. " Koenma said.
A portal opened under their feet, Aki's portal was of course different. Meaning it transported
him to their house and the spirit detectives were sent to Genkai's place for more training.
The rest of the day were full of hard training and also some worry.
The next day in Fedual Era
" Kagome-chan are you going to the river again? " Sango asked, seeing her friend leave
towards the direction she had always seen her go early in the morning.
" Uh-huh, yes Sango-chan. Why? " She answered then asked.
" Nothing. But can I come along? " Sango asked.
" Sure. " She answered, then they headed to it.
Half way there, Kagome felt Hatake nearing them and a small smile graced her lips.
When he did show up, they greeted each other. Kagome saw him holding something.
" Hey, Hata-kun what's that? " She asked, pointing to the black box he was holding.
He looked, and he scratched the back of his head but not before lowering his mask to
completely reveal his face from the black cloth. Then, with one hand he handed the box to
Kagome. She just looked at the slightly large box then back to him.
" Well, go ahead and open it Kagome. " He said assuringly.
Kagome then opened the box and saw many different kinds of basic and advanced ninja
weapons. Some of it, she really, really wanted so she was glad and grateful.
Kagome putted the box down and hugged Hatake real tight, he gratefully returned it.
" Arigatou Hata-kun ! " She thanked as she let go.
" Your welcome Kagome-san. " He said as he started his way back to the village.
With a satisfying smile on his face while doing so.
After Kagome had putted the box in her back pack, they resumed going to the river.
Kagome had told them about the kit that was following her and told them not to pay attention
to him as long as they could. And it was just fine with them considering that it was just a kit.
When they got to the river, Kagome went on the same procedure as before and took her bath
while Sango just watched her swim with a smile on her face. When she finished, Kagome felt a
demon coming but didn't pay any attention to it. It was the same crow demon that was always
near Kaede's hut and she presumed that it wanted the shikon no tama and that it wanted it
now. When she took pulled the necklace out of under her black clothing to let it show outside,
the small kit suddenly went out of his hiding place and caught both Kagome and Sango's
attention. He stood there, with slightly angry emerald eyes.
" Give me the shikon no tama. " He said in one brave breath as he could muster.
" Okay then. Why don't you come here and get it yourself? " Kagome suggested as she took
off the necklace and made the shikon jewel danggle by holding on to it's special chain.
The kit had a non-believing look on his face as he approached the miko to get the shikon
jewel and wish his parents back to life and live happily again.
He grabbed hold of the shikon jewel tight in his small hand and Kagome let go of the chain.
Sango was curious as to what Kagome had wanted to do actually do or prove using the jewel.
When the kit was a few meters away, the crow youkai was now visibly heading towards his
aim, the jewel and the kit knew it and to save his life, he started running but the crow demon
used it's claws to grab a hold of the kit and flew a little higher up. Sango was going to kill it but
Kagome held her hand to not do anything. Except she just waited and waited.
" Help !! " cried the little kit.
That was all Kagome needed as she took out a throwing knife and shot it at the demon.
( Throwing knife = If you watched Naruto you know what it is. It's like a large black shard
with a handle, at least that's what it looks like. It's the same color as the shuriken too. )
The large crow demon made a noise that signified that it was in extreme pain.
It's beak, then went to the prey in his claws and it swallowed the small shikon jewel.
It dropped the small kit down, and Kagome caught him safely in her arms.
The demon started flying away and it was in some distance, but Kagome jumped up and
threw 3 shurikens at it. One had miko energy and the other two were plain shurikens.
But the Kagome remembered the shikon jewel, as it made a little splash that it fell in the river
water. The river current where the demon flew over was rough and where Kagome stood, she
dived in the water to catch up on the jewel but her luck was out when the current started to
grew stronger and she got out of it. And again, cursing her luck. Inuyasha and the others
arrived, as they sensed the momentarily weak demon that became powerful with the jewel.
--After she explained what happened--
" What?! " Inuyasha blurted out. Cursing himself for not taking the jewel earlier.
' If I took that stinking jewel, I would be youkai and Kagome can never get back to the future.
But now, the jewels lost and- '
" It's not that hard, the jewel must have been dragged to the end of the river. " Kagome
reasoned. Breaking Inuyasha's train of thoughts.
" Unfortunately Kagome, there is a waterfall at the edge of the river. " Hatake stated
worriedly but inside in some part of him was happy because the jewel lost means Kagome
stays, but then, some part of him was saying that he shouldn't be happy for himself.
" Yeah Kagome. And that waterfall is called the 'Great Death Falls' " Sango added.
Kagome decided to ask why, which was a bad idea for the others atleast.
" Well, the waterfall is very beautiful and very deep and not to mention very large. No one
and nothing had ever went in their and come back on surface. Many had died there, body's
never recovered because of the never resurfacing thing. Nothing even floats in the surface of
the water without getting gripped down by the alive like under water plants. " Miroku
explained. As Kagome started walking to the end of the river, them following behind.
The kit however hid again from view.
When they reached the ' Great Death falll ' Kagome marveled at it's beauty.
They were at the very high cliff were the water fall descended, down below they could see the
large pool of water that the water fall made, the water looked to be in different shades of a
calm blue and just as Miroku explained and said, there weren't any leaves on the water. It
was very large like about as big as Kaede's village. The waterfall made a small rainbow
cascading over it, somewhat like a bridge. When Kagome looked down intently into the water,
she couldn't see anything except the water itself. But she could see that several ghosts were
at land or floating on top of the water. The ghosts were wearing kimonos, some, armors.
" Sango, let's go down there. " Kagome said, while poiting to the side of the waterall where it
was dry. Sango nodded, Kirara transformed. Both girls rode on her and so as Miroku to get
down, Inuyasha and Hatake only jumped down themselves.
When they got down, Kagome got near the water and secretly dipped her hand and jerked it
back when she felt the water move than normal. She got up from her kneeling position and
tunrned to the others. " It doesn't seem so dangerous to me. " Kagome said.
The others looked at eachother, Miroku sighed. He pulled off some leaves from a low
branched tree and threw it on the water. They all watched as the leaves sunk under it on its
own. ' Why would something, that's so light sink under water? ' Kagome asked herself.
She made a smoke bomb appear on her hand and threw it on the ground.
The others, Miroku and Sango gasped, Inuyasha coughed from the smell and Hatake jumped
on a tree where he could see everybody except Kagome. He searched one more time and got
the same results. " Kagome's missing. " He said, everyone heard it.
And when the smoke cleared, they all yelled out her name, only to have her reply...
" I'm here, Minna-san ! " She yelled, they looked up and saw her at the cliff.
For a moment they wondered how she got there but just shrugged it off, as she walked away to
only appear from view while jumping off the cliff and direclty in the water.
The others stared, she was falling in a slow motion type of way. Her bag not on her shoulders.
She made a rather loud splash when she did fall in. Others yelled her name but of course she
couldn't here them in that loud splash.
-- With Kagome Under Water --
She had her eye's opened all the time she fell and heard the splash.
Now, she couldn't believe what she was seeing as she looked further down the water.
It was still very deep despite that she had fell in from a high place, it had skeletons of humans
and demons alike. There were several small boats about 7 of them.
The skeletons were being held by green water vines, she saw some bones were crushed, there
were weapons of all kind stuck to the bottom of the water, some skeletons hands were
hanging on to some of it. But what really caught Kagome's eye were, about several about 4
treasure chests, as she noticed what it looked like treasure kinds of chests.
Vines were guarding it securely by all tanggling themselves at it.
With all of this, marveling, Kagome didn't notice that vines started approaching her.
One gripped her neck, two gripped her wrists, and two gripped her legs. Dragging her to the
bottom of the almost bottomles body of water.
-- With the others above --
" What should we do !? " Sango asked, frantic to what might happen to her friend.
The others were doing some brain storming when second passed, a red glowing energy chain
came out of the water. And did a turn to grip the tree near them.
While they were looking at where the chain gripped, they jerked their heads back to see
Kagome in a motion of looking like she was jumping out of the tree, the chain was gettting
shorter and shorter as she neared the edge of the water and quickly climbed out of the water
while spitting out water and breathing kind of hard for air. When the others got their senses
back, they immediately went to her.
" What happened Kagome? " Sango asked, after her breathing was normal.
" You should've seen it Sango ! It was so great anf freakish at the same time... but I'm
definitely going back in there! " Kagome said, one vined arm raised to show how much fun.
Everyone had a sweat drops on their heads, Kagome was indeed weird and proven.
" You nearly get drowned and you want to go back? " Hatake asked.
" Well,...yeah. And Sango-chan can I use your sword? " Kagome asked.
" Okay Kagome-chan. Here. ( Throws Kagome the sword ) " Sango answered.
Kagome caught the sword and was going to dip her feet in the water when one of the ghosts
she saw earlier come up to her. She wanted to just ignore it but it kept touching her, it's cold
and misty hand actually touching her flesh. Kagome had been seeing ghosts her whole life but
none of them actually approached her and wanted to talk to her. To ghosts, they could sense
people alive that can help them but were afraid of them because the person might take them
away. At least that's what and how the ghosts in her time take it to ignoring her.
But she kept ignoring it none the less. Until, / SPLASH / Kagome was pushed off the edge and
in to the water, but she immediately got up to the edge.
" What was that for !? " She yelled, glaring into to ghost infront of Inuyasha who was clueless
" What?! I didn't do anything. " Inuyasha too blurted out much like Kagome.
You weren't paying attention to me. was the ghosts answer in her head.
" Wh-what am I suppose to say? Your a ghost. " Kagome slightly stuttered, new to the voice's
misty feeling in her head. The others too felt a chill as Kagome started speaking.
" What is it Kagome? " Hatake asked, looking at her.
I just wanted to tell you something...but since you don't want to know about the trasure...
The ghost said in Kagome's mind and started leaving. Kagome while cursing her curiousness
grabbed the ghosts wrist and asked him what treasure was he talking about.
The others just stared at her as she grabbed air, and her hand looked like it was holding
something in it by the way it was shaped. The others looked at each other.
As I was trying to say, I lost a sword there when I was drowned by the vines. You're the only
one who got out of there for the long, long time that I have been here. There's a sword there.
My sword actually. Find it and keep it for me will you... The ghost said as he floated and
started towards the sky. Kagome followed him with her gaze as he did.
" Kagome-sama? " Miroku asked.
" Nothing Miroku. Just another ghost. " Kagome answered and murmured the last part.
But with Inuyasha's keen hearing and Hatake's trained one..they heard it clear.
" Anyways, don't go in the water. You'll get dragged further in by those vines. " She added.
And jumped into the water once more after taking a deep breath.
The others just watched her after hours, coming up and down from the water. She brought up
vines everytime she did but no matter wahat, there was no Shikon Jewel.
The others got tired of watching, so Miroku, Sango and Inuyasha just went back to the village
while Hatake stayed, watching Kagome from a tree he was in. And the kit was hiding in a
bush also watching her.
With the spirit detectives Early in the Morning
Kurama woke up, going to the bathroom and washing his face while hearing the sounds of the
swishing of a sword. Knowing Hiei was already up, he also went out the temple to train.
" Goodmorning Hiei. " Kurama greeted the fire apparation.
" Hn. " Was his only reply as he contiuned training.
So Kurama voluntered to spar with his and he accepted.
Moments later, screams were heard. As Genkai woke the idiot and the dimwit by throwing
cold water on them coming from a bucket full of water.
They went out and ran around the temple.
" Goodmorning Yusuke, Kuwabara. " Kurama greeted.
" What's so good about the morning? " Yusuke asked as he continued running while drenched
with water. Kuwabara on the other hand just leaned on the wall and started snoring again.
" Ohayo minna-san. " Yukina greeted, stepping out of the door.
" Ohayo Yukina. " Kurama greeted back.
" Hn. "
Kuwabara as if in reflex immediately woke up and started running as fast as he could and
showed off. He stopped by Yukina's side. " Goodmorning my Yukina. " He greeted.
" Goodmorning. " She greeted back.
Hiei was growling in the back but only Kurama heard.
-- After Lunch --
Thy were all outside, minus Yukina nd Genkai.
" Why hasn't the toddler called us yet? " Yusuke asked, agitated.
" Do you think that Kagome might have not been transported back in time? " Kurama asked.
The others looked at him almost questioningly at his statement.
" What are you saying Kurama? " Kuwabara asked.
" Baka. He's saying that Kagome might be here somewhere. " Yusuke answered.
He looked at Kurama for a moment and narrowed his eyes at him.
" How and why are you saying that Kurama? Are you hiding something? " He asked.
" No Yusuke. I'm not hiding something. But think about it, Kagome can well hide her scent if
she wants to. Like what Aki said, she can do almost anything. What if she just have a problem
or something , maybe with her friends? A guy? Family? " Kurama explained.
Everyone looked at him again, now Hiei had an idefinite look, Yusuke had a look that even
the author can describe and Kuwabara had question marks on his head in an anime style.
" Kurama....., for the first time..... you Don't make sense. " Yusuke stated, his right arm over
Kurama's shoulder in an almost brotherly manner. As he started speaking.
" Kurama, even I know that, for 1, Kagome don't make friends at her school, 2, she doesn't
like guys like her Fans told us, 3, she loves her family." Yusuke explained in a ' DUH ' way.
Kurama sighed, he had to stop worrying or it'll just affect him.
But it wasn't that easy with Youko speaking in his head.
" Your right. It's just that..Youko wouldn't stop...bothering me. " He said in defeat.
The Next Day in Fedual Era
Kagome woke up bright and early as always. Yesterday about nightfall when she came home
she looked like a prune and she wouldn't have went back to the village if Hatake didn't insist.
" G'morning everybody. " She greeted.
" Goodmorning Kagome-chan. " Sango greeted back.
" Goodmorning Kagome-sama. " Miroku greeted, his right hand travelling to grope Sango
" Feh. " Inuyasha's greeting.
" Morning Kagome. " greeted Hatake with a beaming smile hidden under the cloth on his
face. " Why are you all up so early? " She asked. Looking at them.
" Were not-- HENTAI !!! " Sango yelled as he bonked Miroku with her Hiraikotsu.
" As I was saying, were not up earlier than you normally do Kagome. It's just that you
overslept a little, I guess your body was so tired of swimming, it robbed you in your sleep. "
Sango explained, with a concerned smile on her face.
" Oh. Well, I'm going to the waterfall now. Anyone want to come? " Kagome stated then
asked as she stood up. After a sec, Hatake stood up. Volunteering.
" Okay then Hata-kun. I think, I almost enchanted all those stupid vines. " She said.
They both went out the hut and walked to the waterfall. They ran so instead of it taking 7 long
hours, it only took half an hour with their incredible speed.
Kagome jumped right into the huge body of water the fall made, while Hatake just jumped on
the ground and on a tree.
Moments later, Kagome got out off the water.
" Come on ! Hata-kun, I enchanted the vines so they wouldn't drown us. " Kagome yelled
over to the tree that Hatake was in. He jumped down and stripped off his black ninja top
clothing, revealing his bare chest, he also removed the mask on his face and his boots like
shoes. He without warning jumped in the water, splashing Kagome's face with a wave.
She put her hands up to her face and wiped the much not needed water.
She pointed to the water and dived in, followed by Hatake.
What Hatake saw made him marvel the same way Kagome did.
But he didn't look at it longer, he turned his eyes to Kagome who was swimming down further
in the water and he followed. She pointed a finger on a treasure chest and Hatake nodded.
They held the chest with both hands and brought up the chest as quickly as they can.
" Lets open it. " Kagome suggested. She grab a hold of the lock and opened it with her ninja
throwing knife. Inside were garments, special garments.
Kagome quirked one eyebrow, the garments inside the wooden chest were perfectly dry.
" Any idea Kagome? " Hatake asked.
Kagome just shook her head. She examined all the garments, while doing so, something metal
fell on her lap. She looked, it was a golden necklace. Almost egyptian style, it had squares,
they , ( the squares ) were alligned small to big and from that next to the big, the squares were
getting smaller. Like small to big, big to small the squares alligned. There were only 5
squares, 5 squares made of gold, alligned. The string was also gold. All in all, the necklace
looked like it belonged to a princess or it was for a princess.
She tried it on..and fingered the jewelry.
" It suits you. " was Hatakes comment.
That made Kagome's head snap back up at him and smiled a thank you smile.
Kagome found some kimonos she liked and putted them in her backpack.
Hatake found an all black garment and kept it somewhere...
Then, they dived some more and retreived some more treasure chests.
They found and took some things that they liked and after they're done, they threw the chests
back in the water. They dived in once more.
Kagome pointed towards the different weapons and Hatake nodded in understanding.
They spent hours digging and pulling wepons under the water and in the sand and they
tossed some of the weapons they didn't want again in the water and kept some that they
wanted. But there was one sword Kagome can't help but hold on to.
" Hata-kun, look. " Kagome stated, holding the sword and fingering something in its hilt.
The sword was called a ' Long sword. ' Hence the name, the sword was long, partly thick and
slightly wide. Much like the sword warriors use during wars. Except, it's black hilt had perfect
3 circle holes in it. It was like holes for small spheres like....the shikon no tama.
It was just about the size of the shikon no tama, almost exact.
" What is it Kagome? " Hatake asked, with a curious facade on his face.
Kagome in answer just threw him the sword she had found and after he examined it, he had
the same questoning look as Kagome but she just shrugged it off and once again dived in.
They had found all but the shikon no tama.
But Kagome didn't give up, she kept looking and looking until she saw something sparkle like
the shikon no tama did, she immediately swam up to it in excitement but only found out that it
wasn't the jewel. It was yellow and transparent, shiny and sparkling but it wasn't the jewel.
The small sphere also had the symbol for ' Water ' on it in black.
Kagome rose up from the water and saw Hatake also found a sphere like hers.
Only it was silver and the symbol written on it was ' Thunder ' but the size, shape, texture and
color of the symbol were the same as hers.
Kagome showed him hers and they exchanged glances.
" What do you think they're for Hata-kun? " Kagome asked.
Hatake however, had his hands up in an ' I don't know ' answer. Then, he suddenly left only to
come back with nylon strings ( transparent like strings ) that Kagome assumed were for the
spheres and she was right. Hatake tied the strings on the spheres like gem stones and he
wore the sphere he found and he gave Kagome her sphere after he tied the string to it.
" Arigatou Hata-kun. But can I have your too? " Kagome asked.
" Hmmm....let me think....No. " He answered with a sly smile.
" Huh? Why? " Kagome asked again, putting on the sphere necklace and removing the
egyptian like golden necklace she had found earlier and stuffed it into her backpack.
" Well,...I like to see you plead. But I still won't give this to you. " Hatake answered.
Gesturing to his sphere. Kagome just pouted at him and started brushing her hair while
Hatake just laughed at her face, when Kagome finished brushing her hair, she tensed.
There was a demon, a strong demon. In Makai, he probably be an 'A' class demon.
When a minute passed of seeing Kagome tense, Hatake too felt the demon that was coming.
He and Kagome stood up straight, still dripping wet from their long swim.
When the demon came in the clearing,... Kagome noticed something..
-- SO, Should I end it here? I mean, this is long enough for an Extra Long chapter isn't it? So
can I stop here now? Should I ? Nah ! I think I'll add up some more.. --
The demon infront of them had long silver hair, pointed ears, markings on his face and he also
was holding the small kit Kagome had always seen and once saved. Kagome narrowed her
eyes at him. He glared in response. ' So this was the half brother Inuyasha didn't want to talk
about? This is the brother he despised? ' Kagome thought and asked herself.
" You demon. Put down the little guy ! " Kagome yelled/told him.
The demon just looked at her, up and down with his eyes and Kagome growled.
He in response just threw the kit at her in an angry force and Kagome, being on the edge of
the waterfall, fell down in the water. Kagome immediately got up from the water.
" You demon! Don't you dare expect that I'd respect you after you treated me like that ! "
She yelled at him and it was enough to make the demon angry.
" Human, you and your companion are in my lands. " He said through gritted teeth.
" And? You're going to kill us? Sorry, I don't respect demon lords who tries to kill their
brother just because their half human ! " She yelled at him. He was slightly taken a back.
Then being focused on anger, Kagome spaced out and all she could see were slow motion as
the demon lord punched her hard in the stomach and now, she was under water in pain.
" Darn it. " Kagome said to herself under water as she made bubbles from speaking.
Then, she saw Hatake coming towards her, worry clearly showing on his face. So Kagome
positioned herself and swam up to him and they both came up at the edge.
" Human, you will pay for insulting this Sesshoumaru. " the demon said as he flexed his 2
hands with fingers and deadly claws glowing a slimy green color from the poison.
Clearly seeing the challenge, Kagome smiled and magically got out her throwing knives.
" Kagome- " Hatake tried to say.
" Do me a favor Hata-kun. Try to keep out of our fight until I'm or he's dead. " Kagome
announced, cutting off what Hatake had to say. The battle began.
Kagome attacked with speed but Sesshoumaru, like Hiei was faster than her.
But she had a chance, only the punch he landed on her stomach still hurts a little.
Still, she held her throwing knives in her hands. Sesshoumaru just stood there, unmoving.
When she attacked, Sesshoumaru just stepped out of the way hitted Kagome at the back with
his other hand. She landed on the ground, crashing into the ground while Sesshoumaru just
stared at her on the ground while he brushed some strands of his hair from that had moved to
his face from the 'whizz' fastnest of the attack. Kagome immediately stood up, and jumped far
away from the demon. " You know, Inuyasha always says that your a bastard brother. "
Kagome stated, throwing her throwing knives at Sesshoumaru while him dodging and
answering. " Well, he is right. And that is what I also think of him only lower. "
Kagome positioned her hands in a ninja manner in front of her chest and murmured some
incantation with different language. Then, she stepped into the tree's shadow, she disappeared
and now, Sesshoumaru cannot seem to track her scent. After all, that was what the incantation
was for as Sesshoumaru presumed. His eyes darting left and right for any movement.
He heard a wizz coming and immediately got out his whip and hitted it before it hit him in the
abdomen. Then, more of them came 6 at a time. But still he took them down.
In the shadows, Kagome started running as fast as she could and threw 6 shurikens, coming
from different directions. About half an hour of this, she managed to hit Sesshoumaru with 24
shurikens in his body. ' I can only throw 6 purifying shurikens and out of about 80 shurikens I
threw him. That's not good. I can't take a chance of getting killed by a demon. ' Kagome
thought. Stepping out of the shadows to meet an angry demon lord.
Kagome just smiled at him. " Does it hurt? " She asked, sarcastically.
Sesshoumaru however replied by attacking her with speed Kagome didn't see, and now, she
was pinned to a tree with one clawed hand, the other was positioned and ready to kill her.
" So-, yo-you want to kill me? Well....tough luck ! " Kagome said as she held the demon lords
wrist and her hand glowed red and the demon lord quickly dropped her, releasing his hand.
Sesshoumaru's wrists were red and the power that jolted into him was no joke.
Kagome stood up straight, her hands still glowing red.
' If I can't shoot him with my shurikens, I'll punch it to him....carefully. ' She thought.
" Miko.." was what Sesshoumaru said as Kagome's hands stopped glowing and she charged
once again at him, but now, he fought back. Kagome punched and kicked non stop for past
half an hour until she smelled something and was distracted, thus, earning her a punch.
Hatake was getting worried by the minute, but Kagome told him not to interfere until she was
dead but of course, he'll help when he notice that she can't fight anymore.
The little pup Kagome had saved the second time was running back to them at the waterfall,
he had just been to Kaede's village and it was under attack by a phoenix youkai.
The pup reached Hatake and told him what happened, Kagome heard it all.
" Hata-kun just go ! I can handle this. " She said while dodging some punches.
" But-" He proded.
" Just go ! " She yelled, turning to him and earning another punch in the stomach.
He nodded and ran back to the village with the pup in his arms.
Sesshoumaru was pissed, he was bleeding from several places in his body.
The miko wasn't even purifying him, which he was slightly grateful for.
He stopped attacking when she hit the tree due to the impact of his punch.
He unsheated Toukijin and prepared to attack as the girl jumped up.
Kagome searched for something quick, darting left and right she saw the long sword by her
feet but before she could grab it, Sesshoumaru attacked. And she had his sword between her
hands right before it cut open her skull and she end up dead and never seeing her friends.
She tried breaking the sword but it was too thick and hard so she ended up throwing it out of
her face and quickly, she stepped on the long swords hilt by her feet and caught it with her
hands just in time to defend herself from the demon lords own sword.
' I have to get to the others. ' Was her thought as the Inu youkai jumped away.
Kagome just stared at him intently, he pointed his sword at her.
Then, sparks of energy came hurtling at her. Kagome, startled by this got hit by the energy. It
pierced her flesh, her fishnet sleeves torn all over, her legs had several long cuts.
Kagome was just pissed. " You, look what you did !This was my favorite shirt ! " She yelled.
She charged, swords clashed as they became in contact by the force of the hit.
' How can a human have so much energy? ' Sesshoumaru thought, slightly curious.
It had been an hour and a half after they started the fight and she still is as fast before.
The fought sword to sword, in an equal, but when the scent of fire and smoke filled her nose,
Kagome couldn't help but turn her head to the smell and Sesshoumaru had the chance to slash
at her stomach and he did, but Kagome dodged it slightly. Very slightly that on her stomach
was a long and slightly deep gash of blood, she winced at the immense pain that jolted through
her body from the wound and added to the fact that she was still wet, it was unbearable.
" Your friends would be dead by the time you get there. " He said.
Kagome's head jerked back up to look at him, her eye's screamed pain. But not for herself, it
was for her friends. Kagome, just glared at him. Her eye's turning and glowing all blue forgot
about her wound and held the sword tight around her hands and charged at him.
Slowly, Kagome started beating him and ended up in a position of the sword pointing to his
neck while she was on top of him in a sitting position.
" You know, one time, when Inuyasha and the others were asleep. I overheard him when he
was talking in his sleep. He was saying.. ' I wish I was Youkai, so maybe when I was born,
Sesshoumaru would've accepted me so I wouldn't have left the castle when mother died and
maybe, Sesshoumaru would be proud of me. ' that's what he said. And you know, if I were you,
I would have accepted him for what he is, he's really sweet and maybe if you changed, and
you wouldn't try to kill him then maybe you two can be brothers again not enemy's. " She
said, glowing blue eye's slowly fading. Then jumped out of him, grabbed her backpack and ran
to the village. Sesshoumaru, to say was stunned was an understatement.
He growled, he had just been beaten by a human, a female human that was still early in years.
He stood up, clutching his wounds and running as fast as he can while an image of glowing
blue eye's appeared on his head.
But no one noticed that Kagome's necklace was also glowing the time her eye's did.
Kagome was running back to the village as fast as she can while holding her sword on her
right hand while her left hand clutched her wound on her stomach.
She only had two more purifying shurikens she can use without possible danger.
' Please, just for once. Let me not be late. ' She said in her mind.
" So what is it toddler!? Where's Kagome?! " Yusuke demanded.
They were called to rescue Kagome as Botan had said.
" Get ready to transport back in time. Kagome had been transported to , the main land and
time where Miko's and Monks are. " Koenma stated as he pressed a button.
" Fedual Era. " was what Aki murmured.
And now, they were currently falling in a time portal.
What Kagome saw made her freeze.
The village, some of it were covered with fire. The people were all on one side of the forest,
near where she was . They were just staring as the village continue to burn down.
The others were trying to get close to the flying phoenix youkai but it was breathing fire all
over them. Inuyasha was still trying and so as the others but Kagome saw no improvement.
They landed next to her and asked about the wounds but she changed topic.
" Why did that youkai went here? " she asked, her eyes not leaving the youkai.
" It wants to eat, it's hungry. " Miroku explained, sitting in front of the people.
He was conjuring some spell so the youkai didn't see the village people.
" Kagome, that wound is still wide open ! You're gonna die, if you don't sit still ! " Sango
stated, seeing her wound. Kagome didn't pay attention.
" Inuyasha, give me your haori ! There's still someone in there ! " Kagome exclaimed as she
immediately putted on his haori after he grabbed it out of he's body.
Inuyasha's haori reached just inches below her waist.
She jumped over the flames, and entered a small hut.
There was a little girl crying, she had on an orange and white kimono her hair was on a
ponytail on one side. She hugged the little girl then jumped out on the roof, her arm on their
heads as the fire rat haori protected them.
Kagome gave the little kid to one of the villagers and grabbed some bow and arrows.
" Kagome, how are you going to shoot that thing? It's too far up. " Hatake stated.
" Just watch Hata-kun. And please don't stand too close. " Kagome stated.
------
Kagome poised the bow and arrow down by her legs.
She started chanting but not before looking left and right, at the villagers with a worried face.
" The village is down, ( looks at the phoenix demon up )
The fire is up. ( Starts raising the bow and arrow )
Oh mighty arrow, ( the bow and arrow starts glowing red )
Hit the target with all your might. ( bow and arrow completely raised. )
With this power I grant you flight ! ( Fires the arrow and the demon turns towards it ) "
Kagome chanted, her voice was low, just saying it to herself but all the villagers heard it.
Kagome just stayed standing, her body glowed red with miko energy as the arrow zoomed
faster to it's target. Kagome positioned her hands in a ninja fashion, she started glowing
brighter, the shpere hanging on her neck glowing blue ( no one noticed ) , she started to chant,
now in different language. Then, a large body of water tided , floating over the still burning
village. Everyone was amazed, the arrow was zooming towards the demon like a shooting star.
The large body of water became neutral, the demon was killed, and the water covered the
village to put out the fire. Still, they all looked up except Kagome, at the demon as it roared in
pain, birght red fireworks erupted in the sky. It was now late in the afternoon.
This was the scene the whole spirit detective team saw and also Kagome's brother.
( They saw everything starting from the ----- line I putted up there. the closest of course. )
When the magical light from the sky faded, everyone looked to see Kagome falling down
forward with a smile on her face. But before she made contact with the ground, Hatake's
strong arms held her. The other Inuyasha crew moved forward to help her.
When Miroku left his sealing position on the ground, the spirit detectives move forward.
The villagers got scared and moved away and went to the woods.
" What do you want? " Inuyasha growled at them, sword raised.
" We came for Kagome, I'm her older brother. " Aki stated.
This got heads turned toward them, Inuyasha sniffed and it was confirmed.
The spirit detective group went to Kagome, Hatake gave her bloody body to him.
" This is bad. Almost all of her life energy is gone. But how can it take all her energy to fight
that middle class demon? " asked Aki to the other spirit detectives.
" We, Kagome and me were at the waterfalls, she was swimming all day when the Lord of the
west decided to show up and kill us. She fought him and then someone alerted us the village
was attacked, she said I had to go and..I did-- " Hatake was cut-off.
" And you left her alone !? " asked a golden eyed Kurama.
The sd's were shocked but brushed it off when golden eye's came to view.
" No. Please continue. " Aki said through gritted teeth. Apparantly mad at his sister.
" When I left, I don't know what happened. But when I left her, she was in good condition
then-- " Hatake was once again cut-off.
" I don't need to hear it. We saw the rest. ( standing up with Kagome in his hands. ) It is just
like my sister to sacrifice for others, she is always like this. And she would of died for others,
even an enemy. We have to go and get her treated. " Aki said as they made Botan open a
portal form the future. " Where are you taking her? " was Sango's question.
They all looked away, knowing the answer.
" We will be treating her at a friends house in the future. " Aki answered.
" Bu-but can't you just cure her here? " Sango asked, teary-eyed.
Aki looked at the others, they shook their heads.
" No, she will be better cured there. " Aki answered again.
" Can she come back? " Inuyasha asked, looking away.
" No, I'm afraid that she can't get back here on her own. It was only an accident. " The
emerald eye'd Kurama answered appologetically.
Sango broke down crying in Miroku's haori like clothes.
They were about to jump in the portal when...
" Wait. " Hatake said. He took off the necklace that Kagome had earlier wanted.
( The shpere one. )
" Tell her, I'm sorry I didn't give it to her earlier. And that I'll miss her a lot. " Hatake stated
as he putted the necklace around her neck and then jumped/ran away.
" Us too. Please tell Kagome-sama we will miss her. " were Miroku's goodbye, as a tear ran
down his cheek and her went to some few meters away.
Sango just unntied her ribbon and tied it on Kagome's wrist. And gave them her bag.
" There, that's Kagomes things. " She said as she went to the woods.
" Just tell her she can keep my haori and that I'm glad he beated my bastard brother. " was
what the voice said from the faced around Inu hanyou as he too ran somewhere.
" Tell Kagome-sama we are greatful she saved our village. " was what Kaede said.
" Um, please tell Kagome-chan thank you for saving Rin from the fire. " was what a little girl
said as she rubbed her eyes full of tears.
" Tell her I'm sorry that I took the jewel, I'm sorry that I got her in the fight with the demon
lord and thank you for saving me twice even though I was mean. " was what a little kit said.
They jumped in the portal, Kuwabara said he was ' touched '
They arrived at Genkai's temple about 6:30 pm.
