The time to attack the evil angels was almost upon the members of the semi-famous Japanese punk band known as OmegaNihon. Kuronigori had been using her evil powers to awaken the maiden Midoriko so that she and her army could get the powers of the Shikon Jewel.

KooriKisaki and her army were plotting to get rid of each group of their enemies at a time. First up was the Shichinintai, and with them out of the way, the rest would be rather easy. With the added help of Naraku, Yura the hair demon and the thunder siblings, Manten and Souten, the ice army was almost assured victory. Only a little longer did KooriKisaki have to wait; then she would have the jewel all to herself.

The one week that Sekka had given the Shichinintai was almost up. Bankotsu was the last of the seven to get ready. He walked to his room, opened up his closet and stepped in. On a hidden panel, he typed his security code and the back of the closet opened up, revealing a descending staircase. He walked down it, and when he was at the bottom, looked left, then right. He continued walking.

Two iron doors with bolts around the rims were in front of him. He did not stop walking, and the doors swung open. He walked through them and they closed behind him. He came to a second door, and again did not stop walking. The doors opened horizontally, and then closed again when he passed through them. A third door now, opening from bottom to top, closing when he passed through it.

And finally, the last door. It was made to look like iron bars. When he walked up to it, it opened up and revealed a telephone booth. Bankotsu got in the telephone booth, dialed a number and fell down the trap hole that had opened up.

In the final chamber now, was the Banryuu, sitting on a pedestal in a spotlight. "Ah," he smiled, "Here you are."

He then took a secret passage to get back to Kikyou's house. He found Renkotsu, Mukotsu and Jakotsu waiting for him in the living room. "Where did you go?" Renkotsu inquired. Bankotsu just smiled.

Meanwhile, at InuYasha's, he and Shirakiyo were discussing plans of attack against the evil angels. Throughout the entire time they spent together, InuYasha was fully aware of how often the conversation made its way to Kagome. "She is a very amazing woman," Shirakiyo said, causing InuYasha's eyes to twitch. They went back to talking about the war, which calmed InuYasha down a little bit. Of course, that didn't last too long. Kagome entered the room, causing both boys to drop what they were doing immediately.

"Hey guys," she smiled, "What's up?"

Shirakiyo began to speak, but InuYasha interrupted him. "We're making a plan to attack Kuronigori."

Kagome's jaw dropped. "You?" she exclaimed, "A plan!? Don't you normally just rush into things without thinking about it?"

InuYasha's jaw joined Kagome's. "You're right," he muttered in a sarcastic tone of voice. "Anyways, did you find out if Kouga'll be joining us?"

Kagome shook her head. "Nope, he says he wants to help, but he'd rather spend time with Kagura."

InuYasha snorted. "Son of a bitch. We need all the help we can get, and he just wants to go and roll around in the grass with some wind wench?" He closed his eyes. "Fine, whatever. We'll do it without him." He opened his eyes quickly and turned to the door. "Company."

Standing at the door was Sesshoumaru, Juuroumaru and, curled up on his shoulder, Kageroumaru. "So," Sesshoumaru muttered, "These are our army's great generals?"

Kageroumaru stuck out his tongue. "That's a downer," he smiled.

"Haha, but seriously though, folks," Juuroumaru laughed. "So when's the fight gonna be?"

InuYasha and Shirakiyo exchanged glances of worry. "We, uh, haven't thought of that yet," they said in unison.

Kagome sweatdropped. "Why am I not surprised," she muttered under her breath, completely forgetting that the hearing of everyone else in the room was slightly better than her own. "Well anyways, knowing them, you know, being bad guys and all, they'll probably be the ones to start the fighting." She looked over at the clock and realized that she had other things that needed to be done. "I gotta go," she said, grabbing her bags and heading to the door. "I'll be back in a few hours. Bye." She disappeared, then reappeared and looked right at InuYasha. "Oh and by the way, I'm gonna tell Kagura that you called her a 'wind wench'." She stuck out her tongue and then was gone.

"Haha," Juuroumaru teased, "You're gonna get it."

"I think I liked it better when you couldn't talk," InuYasha muttered under his breath. "Anyways, I think the attack should be sometime soon, so as to catch them off guard."

"Agreed," Shirakiyo smiled. Then he looked towards the door, at the three '-oumarus.' "Will you help me with something?" he asked.

"Sure," Kageroumaru said flatly. "What?"

"Come," the angel demon responded, running out the door, "I'll explain on the way." He led the three of them out the door, leaving InuYasha all alone. He sighed, pulled out the chair from the table and sat down. He was really bothered by Shirakiyo and his attitude towards Kagome. In his eyes, InuYasha was already the victory and didn't think it necessary to fight for Kagome anymore; he had her now. But this angel... He snarled, pushed back the chair and went to the kitchen.

Shirakiyo and the three others arrived at the angel's cave not ten minutes later. It seems he wanted to introduce his new comrades to his army of white robed heaven users. He led them into the cave, passed all the angels that were training for the upcoming battle. At the end of the cave was a small corridor that led to what must have been Shirakiyo's room. They entered it. Waiting for them was Shirakiyo's general. "Ah," she said, "Good, you've arrived. I am Akizuki." As they introduced themselves, she studied these three aliens in front of her.

Kageroumaru didn't notice this until her eyes had landed on Juuroumaru. This started something that would have made a good episode of Three's Company... "Dude," he hissed into his brother's ear, "She's totally checking you out!" Juuroumaru's response was rather subtle. Actually, he didn't say anything at all. "It means she likes you," the serpent demon sweatdropped. He leapt onto Sesshoumaru's shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Haha, I told you!"

"What are you talking about?" Sesshoumaru whispered back.

"Duh, can't you see it?" he pointed one of his scythes at the angeless, then back to Juuroumaru. "It's so obvious!"

"Like Kagura and Kouga?"

"Exactly."

Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes. "Okay then. I will see how this plays out."

"What are you all whispering about?" Shirakiyo demanded.

A smile spread across Kageroumaru's face. "M'lady," he said, turning his gaze to Akizuki, "What is your current marital status?"

The young angeless took a step back, "Um, why do you ask?" she stuttered.

"I saw you checking out my brother here," he pointed to Juuroumaru, "Don't try to deny it."

"I wasn't just checking him out," Akizuki corrected, "I was checking all three of you out."

"So," Kageroumaru began, "You're, like, a slut or something?"

And with that, Juuroumaru bashed his little brother upside the head. "Don't be so rude, Kageroumaru!" He looked up to Akizuki, "I'm sorry about that. He's, uh, overly zealous about things like this."

"Uh huh," was her sighed response. "Well, for the most part, it was nice to meet you."

"It was nice to meet you too," Juuroumaru smiled.

"Oooo," Kageroumaru smiled at Sesshoumaru, "See? There IS something there."

"You talk too much," the dog demon snorted. Kageroumaru's smile only grew.

The snow fell lightly at first, but began to pick up. Soon the Shichinintai were caught in a blizzard. But they arrived at the designated spot nonetheless. All they had to do now was wait for Sekka and the Toukaibutsu to arrive. They looked around anxiously for their enemy to come, but of course she was a little late. Suikotsu had decided that for this one battle he would let his other half take over. It was a decision he would end up regretting...
