Chapter 3: A very bold young woman.

The Inu gang was up at dawn because of InuYasha's curiosity or that he couldn't smell the trail of the demon they were following and it made him nervous. That just any demon could escape his nose (arrogant jerk) was improbable. They set off in search for the demon or demons that had crossed theirs paths but hadn't taken anything from them. So far the only reason InuYasha and the gang had set off was because Kagome wanted them to, which InuYasha found rather stupid. Anyways they set off.

That morning after an hour of walking InuYasha noticed that everyone looked hungry and remembered that they hadn't eaten that morning yet so they stopped and as usual InuYasha begged Kagome for some "ramen" which as usual made him search her sack for it cause she was ignoring him. InuYasha dove head first into the backpack rummaging through every compartment he could find looking under textbooks and the likes. When he finally found then he seemed even hungrier than before he had started his treasure hunt for the ramen noodles. He ate the noodles up so fast it barely took him five minutes. The fact that they were all looking at him didn't even faze InuYasha it was as if he was in his own little world so caught up in the taste of the noodles not even complete silence could stop him for a moment to look at what would have caused it (men are so dense).

Anyways when they were finished they set off once again searching for the way the demon would have gone. They walked along the river for quite some time until InuYasha found the sent once more, he had mad them cross the river to see if the demon was smart enough to stay in the water or if it had just thought it would loose him if it stayed in the water long enough. When they had crossed the river earlier InuYasha had found hoof prints that matched the ones that had been pulling a cart earlier.

"Miroku come look at this these hoof prints match the ones that were leading a cart down the other side of the river banc the demon or demons must have smelt us coming and they took their stuff and put it on the horses and rode down this side of the river banc." InuYasha pointed out "what do you think?"

Miroku walked over to where InuYasha was crouched and examined the hoof prints as well InuYasha seemed to be right but that would mean that they weren't dealing with any ordinary demon but one that was quite powerful. "InuYasha your right but maybe pursuing this demon isn't such a good idea if they smelt us from so far behind than they must be powerful".

"Your right BUT Kagome wants to follow it and I told her that what ever happens she is responsible for it Ok so I think we can keep moving, DON'T you?"

"Well if Kagome thinks we should be looking for this demon than she's right we should hunt it down and see if it has a shard of the sacred jewel." Miroku answered.

"That's what Kagome said and so that's why we are here anyways how far ahead do you think they are I guess a couple kilometres if the are on horse back and if they stopped for the night." InuYasha guessed.

"That sounds about right they seem to be heading towards the east." Miroku pointed out.

"What is taking you guys so long you've been looking at those hoof prints for more than fifteen minutes!!!" Kagome yelled out to them from her place at the base of a tree.

"Hold your horses we're FINISHED!!!" InuYasha yelled back to her with a glare that suggested that he was not happy with her right at that moment.

So they set off again but this time at a much faster pace than before with InuYasha carrying Kagome and Shippo and Kilala carrying Miroku, Sango and her boomerang (what a loud). So off they went Kilala keeping good speed with InuYasha as they sped to find this demon. As InuYasha jumped into the sky he noticed that he could see two people on horseback one that stood quite straight in the saddle and the other had it's head bent down so that if you were in front of it you couldn't see it's eyes. As he looked more closely he saw that they were wearing woman's clothing. He wondered what two women were doing out in the forest while demons were about then he thought that they might be the demons or the demon with a prisoner.

InuYasha landed with a thud on the ground and set Kagome and Shippo down yelling back to them and Miroku "I'll be back you guys stay here I think it might be a trap for humans" he lied of course but he was certain that the demon was a danger to his friends and Kagome.

InuYasha watched Kilala land and then sped off to find the she-demon or demons he had seen. He ran through the forest so fast that he heard nothing but a loud thunder like whistling of the wind in his ears. It took InuYasha about thirty minutes to reach the demon he had been following for the past two days. She was quite beautiful he could see from the back at least. Now that he was closer he could smell that the other one was a demon as well. InuYasha walked up to the women and proceeded to demand things.

"Who are you? Where are you from? What type of demon are you?" as he ranted he didn't notice that the one girl with her head down was still unflinching she looked at nothing in particular.

"Who do you think you are asking a princess all these questions you little mutt?" demanded the one InuYasha hadn't been paying any attention to.

"mutt, Mutt, MUTT I AM NOT A MUTT DO YOU HEAR ME!!!!!!!!!" InuYasha screamed at her in fury of being called a mutt like that so casually.

"Su-ling you really must stop being so over protective of me I can fight my own battles though you are the best of help during them." The young demon princess said to her companion Su-ling "I am Su-yin who are you?" she asked InuYasha with a very sweet look on her face though her voice sounded quite like the Cheshire cat from Alice in wonderland at that moment.

"I am InuYasha, why did that girl named Su-ling call you a princess?" InuYasha asked politely this time.

"Because I am I came here from China it's across the sea on the western side of Japan, I've come to find a husband." Su-yin said without hesitation.

"Really? That's very interesting why do you need a husband you seem so young I wouldn't want to be married if I was a girl!" InuYasha pointed out.

"Yes well my father wants me to marry so I must find a mate soon so that he might give me his thrown he is quite old you see?" Su-yin told InuYasha.

"Well seeing as you don't seem evil would you like to come back and meet the rest of the group that's been following you for the past two days?" InuYasha asked.

"Sure I'd love to." Su-yin responded, "Come Su-ling we are going to meet our hunters." Su-yin said with a chuckle.

InuYasha lead the way to the others as the other two followed behind on horseback. As they reach the campsite the others had set up because InuYasha was taking so long InuYasha notice the strange looks on his friends faces. They all had a look of shock on their faces he had no idea why though until he turned around to face the girls and notice that the one named Su-yin had dog-ears. He hadn't noticed that before and looked shocked at her he should have smelt it on her but he hadn't amazing he thought to himself. How had she done that so that he hadn't know that she was a dog demon but she didn't look pure blood.

"Are you a pure blood boy?" Su-yin asked InuYasha how gave her a dirty look and answered.

"NO I am not, are you?" InuYasha questioned.

"Yes, why are you so angry where I come from a demon loving a human is quite acceptable some human women are much more beautiful than ours I can admit." Su-yin said.

"I am angry because here it is not accepted and that is not the way our demons should act or at least that's according to my half brother and full demon Sesshoumaru!!!" responded InuYasha hastily.
