Chapter 5: Power of the Shinsei

Kagome awoke and leapt down from her spot in Inuyasha's lap. At the realization of how she had slept the night before and the past few nights her cheeks burned. Her face grew redder at how she had acted in her cat-like manner, and redder still at how she let Inuyasha treat her as a pet.

Then an idea dawned on Kagome it wasn't a new idea but an old one that was bashed a million times. Maybe in truth Inuyasha loved her; everyone knew Inuyasha to not say what he had to Kikyo, yet she heard the words she longed to hear, he had wanted her in his lap the night before, he was acting like she was a pet. Kagome didn't know maybe he did love her. It did not matter to her the neko, inu fact. They were both half human now and could be together in that sense, and both were half youkai and could be together in that sense.

As Kagome thought these thoughts plus more that had her and Inuyasha together some showed her human others hanyou a pleased happy smiled played across her face. The world around here was oblivious she was starring at Inuyasha but then again it was really like she was starring through him.

Inuyasha awoke from his slumber and although he did not realize it he knew deep in the depths of his soul that all (that could be) was back to normal. That's when he noticed Kagome starring at him, "What are you starring at, wench!"

Kagome snapped from her trance and turned a bright red that she had just recently calmed away. Once she regained her composure she snapped back at Inuyasha, "Don't call me wench, I do have a name you know!"

"Heh! Bitch just stop starring at me!" growled Inuyasha jumping down from the tree and walking away from Kagome, thinking the quarrel was over.

"I am no dog, Inuyasha! The closest thing to a bitch around here it you INUyasha!" hissed Kagome. Inuyasha turned towards Kagome fuming with anger.

"OSUWARI!" yelled both Kagome and Inuyasha in one swift glow of purple Inuyasha munched dirt and Kagome took her unwanted bath.

By this time the others had awoken hearing the familiar sounds of the two fighting. Although not appreciated at such early hours, the group was slightly pleased that Kagome was no longer a fish fanatic and though her eyes, ears, and tail told different she was the same old Kagome.

Kagome shook herself off ringing out her hair and what she could from her shirt and skirt. Kagome turned and stalked off towards Inuyasha Forest.

"Where are you going!? Home?!" yelled Inuyasha picking himself off the ground as part of his anger subsided.

Kagome had not gotten the chance to answer him when Kaede interrupted her path; she had her usual bag of herbs. The group had known that Kaede had to midwife a birth the night before, "Aye Kagome I see ye is about ye self now. I have some garments for ye, to accommodate ye tail." Kagome instantly calmed down and smiled at Kaede, she turned on her heals and followed Kaede into the hut.

Kagome had imagined that she would receive a new miko outfit, or even one such as Inuyasha's. Kagome's eyes went wide as Kaede handed her a pile of purple cloth, "Oh Thank you Kaede!" Kagome rushed into the back room of the hut to change.

Kagome reentered in a pair of dark purple (color of her ears) pants on the design as Inuyasha's own pants. They rode lower on her hips with a slit in the back for her protruding tail. She also wore a white undershirt once more like Inuyasha's. Over the undershirt and left untied for the day was rather hot was a gi jacket the pinkish color of her miko energy. The tie of Kagome's pants were suitable for the Shinsei the gi jacket could easily tie over the Shinsei and since there was a small slit in the back of the gi jacket it was comfortable for her tail. When tied the gi jacket would conceal her weapons, in which Kagome was not to happy about her original sai belt was at hand. Kagome did rather enjoy her new outfit it really brought out her eye color. Inwardly Kagome frowned she was rather used to her school uniform and clothes of her own time, but having a tail really does change things.

"I like it Kagome it looks good on you and really makes your eyes look the green they are," said Sango.

(A/N: If you don't understand the colors making her eyes look greener and stand out: purple or violet compliments yellow (a color in green) therefore a little yellow against violet makes you see the yellow better, same for red and green and pink is a tint of red. So there is your art/makeup applying/wardrobe-coordinating lesson for the day! YAY!)

Miroku joined Sango to look at Kagome's new outfit and his hand as usual went to his (not her) comfort spot, "Yes I agree Kagome."

"Pervert!" replied Sango to the gentle squeeze of her ass, she fumed and slapped Miroku hard, "We're complimenting Kagome and you squeeze my ass! I would actually understand the minuscule sense in touching her ass as you compliment her, but not mine! You Hentai!"

Miroku respectfully stepped back surprisingly with no defense for himself. Kagome understood he was a same species type of guy and before he got near Kagome's butt her tail would catch his cheek smartly with a flick.

"Ye should be on ye way," said Kaede as she shook her head at Miroku and Sango.

"Yeah we should," replied Inuyasha leaving the hut. The others nodded and quickly packed to head on their journey to meet the hanyou Naraku.

As usual Inuyasha was in the lead of the small band of misfits (A/N: if you think they are misfits a hanyou, a hanyou miko, a youkai taiji-ya, houshi with a Kazaana, a Kitsune, and Neko youkai. Kind of mismatched.)

It was a early hour of the night when what could only be described as the twin of or this creature it self, if it were not for the fact that the creature had already died at Inuyasha's hands and its fangs were used in Tokijin, yes the demon before Inuyasha gorging on the neighboring village looked like incarnation Goshinki (A/N: please tell me my memory serves correctly?) The beast whip around it's back toward the group and in a shocked expression the group stood still. What could have been a long loss twin lack one thing that the other had; The mark of Naraku.

"He isn't an incarnation!" Miroku said shaking the shock off, " I'll use Kazaana."

"No Miroku, there are villagers near by, you mustn't!" replied Sango.

Inuyasha smirked hand on the hilt of Tetsuseiga, "I'll take care of him!"

Kagome was fast, before Inuyasha could leap and strike the youkai true with Tetsuseiga, two Shinsei found their way into Kagome's hand and a second after transformation sped through the air and much like her arrows they were engulfed in light. The sais hit their mark as the demon screamed in agonizing pain. Kagome with her second set of transformed sais at the ready leapt in the air and with as much as a slicing notion (considering sais here) the demon fell down dead.

Inuyasha starred at Kagome a little perturbed, while the others in shock, as they were very impressed.

"How did you do that?" asked Shippo as he bound to Kagome's shoulder when she bent down to receive the projected sais.

"Its like claws almost... well not really, umm... I don't know exactly lucky I guess?" replied Kagome now pondering the question herself.

"Well then you are really lucky Kagome, the Shinsei are huge they must be rather heavy," exclaimed Sango.

"Actually if I could not see them I would have doubted that they transformed," replied Kagome in a matter-of-fact-way.

For the night the group was offered to stay in one of the houses that had not been destroyed in payment for their heroic work. This act was greatly appreciated and they got ready in the spare room. Soon all were asleep with the exception of Kagome and Inuyasha who were outside.

"Kagome you can't just do that you know, you might not be so lucky next time," said Inuyasha in a low voice with a hint of concern.

"Oh and fall helpless under your protection forever? I'm a hanyou I don't need help from anyone!" retorted Kagome.

"I just don't want to see you hurt Kagome!" yelled Inuyasha.

Kagome whipped out her Shinsei and posed them rather properly in a defense, "So spar me! Inuyasha, teach me!"

Inuyasha drew Tetsuseiga and left it untransformed, "Fine, wench!"

Kagome's stance changed as she charged Inuyasha, "I told you to stop calling me that!"
