Interesting Happenings
Chapter 5
Kagome was sitting talking to Yusuke when the rest caught up with them the tall demon
lord nowhere to be seen and it appeared the other girl had left as well because she too
was nowhere to be seen, but then they heard Kagome laugh and look at someone in a
tree. The branches swayed a bit and you could make out the girls slight form high above.
Kagome tossed something at her and the girl caught it and threw it back. The girl avoided
it by grabbing Yusuke and holding him in front of her like a shield allowing him to take
the blow for her.
Kagome was laying on the ground laughing as Yusuke grumbled. He said something to
her and she sat up and hugged him affectionately and replied in kind. Nodding his head
he returned the hug and the two stood up and walked into the castle.
Not sure what to do the four stood where they were when Krys jumped down before them
noiselessly. "The two needed to talk. Follow me. Lord Sesshomaru has told me the rooms
you'll be staying in tonight." she turned and began to walk away and they followed not
far behind.
"How did you meet Kagome?" Botan asked.
"I was given orders to find her and bring her back with the lords younger brother's dead
body." she said shortly.
"Out of curiousity has Kagome been acting strange or anything out of the ordinary?"
"I feel that would be pressing into my ladies personal business, and I do not know her all
that well to know of such things. The people to ask about that would be her kit, the
demon exterminator, monk, my lord or my lady herself."
Botan gave a small sigh.
"What in particular is it that you are looking for?" she asked not even looking back as she
led them through the many corridors.
"The information we received for this mission from our boss told us that after the death
of Inuyasha Naraku would rise again."
The girl froze in her steps. "I assure you if you are joking it is not the least bit funny." she
said angrily her voice ice cold.
"It is not a joke onna. He is back and she is supposed to know about it somehow through
a bond she formed with him." Hiei replied in kind.
The girl spun around to face them her eyes cold and angry. "I do not know what you are
playing at but I know for a fact that he was killed. Lord Sesshomaru and Princess
Kagome made sure of it." she hissed angrily. "If you will here are you rooms." she said
pointing to five different rooms. "I have business to take care of. Figure out which room
you'll be staying in on your own." she stated coldly as she walked off.
"Is it just me or is she angry at the information we gave her?" Botan asked a bit surprised.
"She seems to be protective of Kagome." Kurama noted.
"Hell everyone here seems to be protective of her. Did you see the guards when we
arrived with a battered Kagome? They looked ready to beat us as if we were the ones
who did it." a familiar voice said.
"Hello Yusuke." Botan said to the somewhat cheerful boy. "Did you have a nice talk with
your cousin?"
He shrugged. "It was cut short. Some lords arrived just now and she had to go and take
care of it because it seems Sesshomaru has left the castle right now."
"Isn't she a bit young to be doing something of this nature. Isn't she only 18."
"That's not young at all and by the way she's 20." a childish voice said. "Sesshomaru
himself has been doing it since the age of about 9 though not to the extents he's been
pushing her to do it to. He's hoping if he can get her grounded here she won't go off
anymore on her wanderings where she is most likely to get herself killed. This causes
many a argument among the two though. She just doesn't want to do that."
They looked around trying to find the owner of the voice when a furry ball was suddenly
perched on Yusuke's shoulder. "So you're her cousin? I can see it. Especially in the
powers." the kid mused. He leapt lightly off him and suddenly appeared by Botan
standing on her shoulder now. He looked to be around 10 or so.
"Deity of Death I presume? Stay away from the local monk. He's a pervert who asks
every pretty girl he meets to bear his child. Also ignore his bullshit about a curse. It's
gone."
Botan looked surprised at the kid who just grinned at her two small pointy fangs showing.
"Who exactly are you?" she asked blinking her pink eyes perplexed.
His eyes lit up in amusement and his ears flicked back and forth a bit and his tail
twitched behind him. He stood up straight and jumped off her doing a flip and landing on
the ground in front of her very cat like and did a graceful bow sweeping the ground. He
truly wasn't all that tall. "The name's Shippo Higurashi." he said.
Botan couldn't help it. She cooed at how cute he was and picked him up hugging him to
her. The small boy didn't seem to mind at all as if he was used to this happening all the
time. Which of course the deity didn't doubt. He truly was a cutie.
"What kind of demon are you?" she asked holding him out in front of her taking in the
small paws and tail that waved behind him.
"I am a kitsune." he said proudly.
"Did you say your name is Shippo Higurashi? That'd make you Kagome's adopted son
right?" Yusuke asked.
"Of course. If I was her true son I wouldn't be a full demon."
"How did she adopt you?" Kurama asked curiously.
The kitsune gave a small snort. "If you're wondering if she adopted me the demon way
then yes she did. Didn't even flinch."
Kurama's eyes widened a bit and Hiei himself looked a bit surprised. Yusuke shot
questioning looks to the two demons.
"Mind sharing what's so amazing about it?" he asked annoyed.
"Most humans never adopt youkai as their own and if they do it's usually done by human
way. The demon way magic as well as the exchange of blood is involved." Kurama
explained.
"Why is there anything bad about it?"
"As a miko her blood would most likely have purified the boys if she didn't truly want to
adopt him or if she didn't have enough control over her powers she also would have
purified him and his blood in her body would have hurt her. Am I correct?" he asked
looking at the boy who looked at him slightly impressed.
"Yea she was laid up for about a week or two there." he said nodding his head.
Yusuke swore and the small boy frowned suddenly. "You guys have met Krys?"
They nodded.
"What have you done to get her so pissed?" he asked wrapping his arms around himself
shivering.
"What do you mean?" Botan asked curiously as she picked the boy up wrapping him in a
hug trying to relieve some of the pain.
"KRYS!!" an angry cry was heard throughout the castle and the boy seemed to relax a bit
at the voice. "TURN DOWN THE POWER A BIT WOULD YA? YOU'RE GONNA
END UP KILLING SOME OF THE PEOPLE HERE WHO ARE SENSITIVE TO YOUR
POWERS."
The boy in Botan's arm soon stopped his shaking as he looked to the koorime. "It hurts?"
he asked.
They looked questioningly to the short demon to see him fighting to stay concious.
"Here." the boy said tossing blue fire at the demon that surrounded him covering him up.
"What have you done kid?" Yusuke asked surprised looking at the fire.
"Helping your friend." the boy said shortly watching and waiting. Soon the fire
disappeared and the demon was standing there as if nothing happened.
"Helped?" he asked.
"Hn."
The boy nodded his head shortly. "My mom had to do that to me too once when someone
had similar abilites as Krys."
"What just happened?"
"Krys is a forest sprite. Forest person. Sometimes known as an elf." the boy said looking
at them each in turn as he began to speak. "The one thing they fear most is that a fire will
ravage their homes so one of their abilities is to affect fire and as a carrier of fire even if
it isn't all that much especially not compared to your friend it hurts because it affects a
part of us. It really does hurt. Think of when you were fighting Suzaku, Yusuke. When he
was using that lightning attack thing on you it hurt a lot right?"
Yusuke nodded his head not even bothering to find out how the kid knew about that
fight. "It's something like that except it's a lot deeper. It affects the soul. Like having
your soul taken from you. Well I can't really say it like that considering the only one who
knows how that feels is Kagome and she won't tell anyone or talk about it when the pain
comes."
"What about her soul?"
"Keep your shirt on Yusuke. You know this part of the story. Kagome told it to you. Just
not as it happening to herself but the miko in her stories which was her. Man I'm
confusing myself." he shook his head.
"You mean that story about Kikyo taking the soul from the miko and the girl getting it
back all but a small part of it was true and it happened to Kagome?"
"Bingo." he said sounding oddly a lot like Botan.
"Doesn't she have it back yet? Isn't Kikyo dead?"
"Oh if only. She disappeared after the battle with Naraku."
"Naraku's dead?" Yusuke asked seeing if he could get any information out of the kid.
"Yea right and I'm a bunny rabbit. The easter rabbit to be exact." he said sarcastically.
"Look I'm a kid they don't tell me anything so I don't know anything. Even if I did know
anything it's not my place to say anything." he said a small smile on his face.
"So he's not dead?" Kurama pressed ignoring the rabbit comment.
The boy cocked his head slightly to the side looking at them curiously. "The best person
to ask would be Kagome." he said in a tone that clearly said he'd say no more.
Yusuke looked down at the boy briefly in wonder at how mature he seemed. Maybe it has
something to do with all he's been through he mused silently to himself.
"Look I got to go to the kitchen and find Rin. Enjoy yourselves and don't piss Krys off to
much." he said as he bounded off.
"He's odd." a female voice said further down the hallway from them. Her voice could be
clearly heard across the distance.
"He's a lot like his mother." a male voice said.
"Definitely a mix between her and Inuyasha." the female voice said agreeing.
"The stupid hanyou didn't know when to keep his voice shut." another male said his
voice deeper.
"Kag-chan did her best to raise him though through all those hard times. She did a
magnificent job if I do say so myself." the female said.
"Of course you do." the first male said. "She's like your sister and he's adopted you as
his aunt."
"Jealous?" the girl taunted. "Maybe if you'd stop groping his kaa-san he'd adopt you as
his uncle I mean look he adopted wolf face." the girl said chuckling.
The second male growled in a low warning tone at her. "Watch it woman. I only took
that from the mutt."
"Of course. Gomen." the girl said laughter in her voice.
"DAMN IT WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO GET PEACE HERE? YOU THREE GET TO
THE CONFERENCE ROOM NOW OR SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES LATER."
Kagome's angry voice was heard through the castle again.
"Do you think we should go?" the female asked.
"I don't know." the first male said in a thoughtful voice.
"Look you guys don't have to be as scared of her as I do." the second male said. "I'm
definitely going now."
"Chicken?" the female said.
"No but I'll be ash soon if I don't show up."
"That's true." the girl mused. "We should go if only to save Koga's tribe from searching
for a new leader."
The male laughed at the expense of his companion. "Sorry man but it's very amusing."
"You've spent to much time with the miko."
"Of course. I spent the last what four years? with her. I was the third one in the group ya
know." the male said.
"Still don't know why she accepted you houshi-sama." the girl said in a long suffering
voice.
"I do." the man said.
Suddenly a loud slap was heard and the female yelled out one word. "HENTAI!!"
Finally from down the hallway appeared a young woman dressed in a black cat like suit
with red armor on it carrying a katana at her hip and a large boomerang strapped to her
back glaring at a man dressed in furs his long brown hair tied back who was laughing
hard as he supported what appeared to be an unconcious male.
The other male was dressed simply in a black robe with his jet black hair tied in a
dragons tail at the back and on his one hand was a set of prayer beads.
The girls eyes suddenly strayed toward them. "Hm looks like we got guests. Are these the
people Kag-chan said we weren't supposed to accidentally kill?"
"Looks like it." the conscious male laughed.
"Koga why are you caring that pathetic excuse of a monk with you?" the girl asked
looking in distate at the man.
"Because Sango you would have gone back for him later."
She glared at him.
"Do you guys mind?" a soft, deadly, angry voice inquired. They all turned in surprise to
see Kagome dressed in a beautiful flowing black gown with slits to the knees, her dark
hair was piled on the top of her head.
"Sorry Kag-chan." the one Koga said.
"So much for you guys being my assistances." she muttered looking at the unconscious
monk with boredom. "He grope you again Sango?"
"Yes that stupid perverted monk." she seethed.
"Yet you like it." Kagome said nodding her head as she turned her back to them.
Sango stood there with her mouth hanging open in surprise watching her friends
retreating back. Her mouth opened and shut a couple of times before she seemed to
regain full use of her voice again. "I do not like that pervert."
"I didn't say you liked him." Kagome said turning around again to face them her eye
arched up in amusement. "I just said you liked what he did to you, but this proves you
like him."
"How so?"
"You were pretty quick to cover for him and what about the times when he's grope me?
I've seen the way you glare at him or how about the time I knocked him out in the forest
and we left him but the next morning I find him in the hut with us just beginning to wake
up. I wonder how he got here. Maybe a certain demon exterminator does like him." she
smiled. "Come now I want to get this meeting over with and then I'm going to find
Sesshomaru and kill him for leaving me here purposefully knowing they would show
up."
Glaring at her Sango stalked past her and Koga came up next to her still holding the
unconscious monk. "Leave Miroku in his room Koga. It will be an emberassment that I
don't want to deal with today." she said smiling at him in turn. "Feel free to wander
around. You are friends of my cousin making you my friends in turn. Enjoy yourselves
hopefully everything will be taken care of before supper and we can talk then." she
walked away agai not even looking at them as she addressed the last part to them.
"Your cousin is interesting." Botan said with a bit of surprise in her voice.
"She has total mood swings." Yusuke grumbled. "Watch out for them or you're in for a
world of hurt." he turned on his heel and walked away.
"Where are you going Urameshi?" Kuwabara asked him.
"Going to look around. Kag gave us permission to do it and I'm curious." he said as he
walked away.
"Rin give that back." Shippo's voice bounced through the hallways. He came into view
chasing a young girl that was probably a year younger then him. She was small and cute
her short brown hair was put up in a one-sided ponytail dressed in a orange and white
checkered kimono.
"Catch me." she giggled.
"That's it. I didn't want to resort to this but...." Shippo leapt at her knocking her to the
ground where he began to tickle her. "Hah I got you now. Do you yield?"
"Never." she laughed.
"To bad, I guess I'll have to continue torturing the hostage." he replied. After a few
minutes she finally gave in and handed him a small pouch.
He stood up and hung it from his pants patting it and lent her a hand up. His eyes turned
to the others who had watched this seeing as they had nothing better to do. "Well it
seems we meet again." he grinned.
"Rin meet some friends of kaa-san's. That's Botan, Kurama, Hiei, Kuwabara and hey
where is Yusuke?"
"Is that the one who is nee-chans cousin?" she asked him eagerly.
"Yea." he murmured in reply.
"He just left to wander around. Kagome gave him permission." Botan explained.
"And you guys don't know what to do because you don't want to make it seem like
you're intruding?" the kitsune asked. "I got the perfect idea. Hiei would probably like the
dojo. It's one of the best and also has some really neat swords from Totousi. Hm.. maybe
the rest of you would like to see the garden? It's really big because both Kagome and Rin
love gardening and looking at plants."
Botan smiled at him. She was beginning to think she would really like this little kid.
"Sure show us the way." she said.
"Hiei would you like to see the dojo?" he asked looking at the apparition.
"You say Totousi?" Hiei asked slightly intrigued.
"The one and only." the kit answered grinning. "He likes my mom so much that he
agreed to stay around for awhile though he doesn't really trust Sesshomaru after that
whole trying to kill him incident."
Botan looked at him eagerly. "Could you tell me some of the stories? Only Yusuke has
had the pleasure of knowing so much. This story is practically forgotten in the future and
I've always wondered about it wanting to know more."
He looked thoughtful for a bit. "Well I could tell you some things but the perfect story
tellers are Miroku, Sango or kaa-san if you can get her to tell them. She is after all the
only one that knows what happened in the first months of her traveling with Inuyasha."
(I think that is correct right? She didn't meet Shippo until a couple of months later and I
think I read somewhere they met Sango six months later. Do correct me if I am wrong. It
really helps to have you guys let me know about mistakes that I make)
"Why is that?"
"I didn't meet her and Inuyasha until at least several months after they began to tell you
the truth. I don't really know what went on with those two. Most I have to say is I'm
surprised they hadn't killed each other within a few days of knowing each other."
"That bad?" Botan asked as the small kit started walking telling the story.
"You have no idea." he chuckled.

"He's a lot like his mother." a male voice said.
"Definitely a mix between her and Inuyasha." the female voice said agreeing.
"The stupid hanyou didn't know when to keep his voice shut." another male said his
voice deeper.
"Kag-chan did her best to raise him though through all those hard times. She did a

"Still don't know why she accepted you houshi-sama." the girl said in a long suffering
voice.
"I do." the man said.
Suddenly a loud slap was heard and the female yelled out one word. "HENTAI!!"
Finally from down the hallway appeared a young woman dressed in a black cat like suit
with red armor on it carrying a katana at her hip and a large boomerang strapped to her
back glaring at a man dressed in furs his long brown hair tied back who was laughing
hard as he supported what appeared to be an unconcious male.
The other male was dressed simply in a black robe with his jet black hair tied in a
dragons tail at the back and on his one hand was a set of prayer beads.
The girls eyes suddenly strayed toward them. "Hm looks like we got guests. Are these the
people Kag-chan said we weren't supposed to accidentally kill?"
"Looks like it." the conscious male laughed.
"Koga why are you caring that pathetic excuse of a monk with you?" the girl asked
looking in distate at the man.
"Because Sango you would have gone back for him later."
She glared at him.
"Do you guys mind?" a soft, deadly, angry voice inquired. They all turned in surprise to
see Kagome dressed in a beautiful flowing black gown with slits to the knees, her dark
hair was piled on the top of her head.
"Sorry Kag-chan." the one Koga said.
"So much for you guys being my assistances." she muttered looking at the unconscious
monk with boredom. "He grope you again Sango?"
"Yes that stupid perverted monk." she seethed.
"Yet you like it." Kagome said nodding her head as she turned her back to them.
Sango stood there with her mouth hanging open in surprise watching her friends
retreating back. Her mouth opened and shut a couple of times before she seemed to
regain full use of her voice again. "I do not like that pervert."
"I didn't say you liked him." Kagome said turning around again to face them her eye
arched up in amusement. "I just said you liked what he did to you, but this proves you
like him."
"How so?"
"You were pretty quick to cover for him and what about the times when he's grope me?
I've seen the way you glare at him or how about the time I knocked him out in the forest
and we left him but the next morning I find him in the hut with us just beginning to wake
up. I wonder how he got here. Maybe a certain demon exterminator does like him." she
smiled. "Come now I want to get this meeting over with and then I'm going to find
Sesshomaru and kill him for leaving me here purposefully knowing they would show
up."
Glaring at her Sango stalked past her and Koga came up next to her still holding the
unconscious monk. "Leave Miroku in his room Koga. It will be an emberassment that I
don't want to deal with today." she said smiling at him in turn. "Feel free to wander
around. You are friends of my cousin making you my friends in turn. Enjoy yourselves
hopefully everything will be taken care of before supper and we can talk then." she
walked away agai not even looking at them as she addressed the last part to them.
"Your cousin is interesting." Botan said with a bit of surprise in her voice.
"She has total mood swings." Yusuke grumbled. "Watch out for them or you're in for a
world of hurt." he turned on his heel and walked away.
"Where are you going Urameshi?" Kuwabara asked him.
"Going to look around. Kag gave us permission to do it and I'm curious." he said as he
walked away.
"Rin give that back." Shippo's voice bounced through the hallways. He came into view
chasing a young girl that was probably a year younger then him. She was small and cute
her short brown hair was put up in a one-sided ponytail dressed in a orange and white
checkered kimono.
"Catch me." she giggled.
"That's it. I didn't want to resort to this but...." Shippo leapt at her knocking her to the
ground where he began to tickle her. "Hah I got you now. Do you yield?"
"Never." she laughed.
"To bad, I guess I'll have to continue torturing the hostage." he replied. After a few
minutes she finally gave in and handed him a small pouch.
He stood up and hung it from his pants patting it and lent her a hand up. His eyes turned
to the others who had watched this seeing as they had nothing better to do. "Well it
seems we meet again." he grinned.
"Rin meet some friends of kaa-san's. That's Botan, Kurama, Hiei, Kuwabara and hey
where is Yusuke?"
"Is that the one who is nee-chans cousin?" she asked him eagerly.
"Yea." he murmured in reply.
"He just left to wander around. Kagome gave him permission." Botan explained.
"And you guys don't know what to do because you don't want to make it seem like
you're intruding?" the kitsune asked. "I got the perfect idea. Hiei would probably like the
dojo. It's one of the best and also has some really neat swords from Totousi. Hm.. maybe
the rest of you would like to see the garden? It's really big because both Kagome and Rin
love gardening and looking at plants."
Botan smiled at him. She was beginning to think she would really like this little kid.
"Sure show us the way." she said.
"Hiei would you like to see the dojo?" he asked looking at the apparition.
"You say Totousi?" Hiei asked slightly intrigued.
"The one and only." the kit answered grinning. "He likes my mom so much that he
agreed to stay around for awhile though he doesn't really trust Sesshomaru after that
whole trying to kill him incident."
Botan looked at him eagerly. "Could you tell me some of the stories? Only Yusuke has
had the pleasure of knowing so much. This story is practically forgotten in the future and
I've always wondered about it wanting to know more."
He looked thoughtful for a bit. "Well I could tell you some things but the perfect story
tellers are Miroku, Sango or kaa-san if you can get her to tell them. She is after all the
only one that knows what happened in the first months of her traveling with Inuyasha."
(I think that is correct right? She didn't meet Shippo until a couple of months later and I
think I read somewhere they met Sango six months later. Do correct me if I am wrong. It
really helps to have you guys let me know about mistakes that I make)
"Why is that?"
"I didn't meet her and Inuyasha until at least several months after they began to tell you
the truth. I don't really know what went on with those two. Most I have to say is I'm
surprised they hadn't killed each other within a few days of knowing each other."
"That bad?" Botan asked as the small kit started walking telling the story.
"You have no idea." he chuckled.
