Dragon Man 180- Yup! Shourai's going to the Higurashi shrine! Where would this take place? Um... I'm not sure. You decide. Inuyasha will have the Wind Scar and Sesshy will have Rin, so sometime after that.

LiL:.CaT:.AnImE- Did you write the address in the review? Because it looked like you did, but it's not there. o.o; Weird. This chapter will be happier than the last. Inuyasha can be on anyside of the well. Did I confuse you? Sorry!

love-bracelet123- Nope. Shourai's staying right where she is. No trips down the well for her.

Lucied's sis- Grounded? That stinks!

Sorona- Sesshy's mate is usually something I leave out of my stories because Sesshy having a mate... well I usually can't see that. -.-; I might bring some memories of her in though.

DarkPirate-510- Shourai is a very pitiful person. I have to admit that. No one seems to like her. :( She's 11.

Shourai stumbled up the final step to the Higurashi Shrine. It was her favorite place. So peaceful and quiet. And the shrine was much smaller and older than most of the other shrines in the area. It was perfect for her daily chore of praying for her parents.
They had died long ago when Shourai had been eight. She hardly remembered them at all. Their deaths were one of Japans many unsolved crimes. Shourai never did expect it to be solved and she really didn't mind either. She had accepted their deaths a long time ago.
Shourai kneeled down in front of the god tree. It wasn't the traditional place to pray for the dead, but she liked being near nature while praying. It made her feel closer to the people who she was praying too.

Inuyasha sat on the floor of Kagome's room as Kagome finished her homework. "Would you finish up wench?" he asked, "You're taking up valuable time that could be used to hunt for the jewel!" "Oh well." Kagome replied, "Right now my homework is my first concern. I haven't been home for two weeks and I've got a whole lot!" Inuyasha 'fehed' but didn't say anything else on the matter.
A few seconds later he sniffed the air and frowned. "What is it Inuyasha?" she asked. "There's something outside." he replied, "It sort of smells like a demon, but it smells more like water than anything else." "I didn't think water had a smell." Kagome said. "It does." the hanyou said, "But your nose is so bad it couldn't smell it if you fell in it." She scowled at him. "That's not my fault." the girl said, "So don't make it sound like it is!"
"Oh, be quiet." Inuyasha snapped. He walked over to the window and pointed out towards the god tree. "There's someone here." the hanyou said. Kagome got up and looked out the window too. "Oh." she said, "That girl's here everyday. Sometimes grandpa talks to her. She comes to pray for her dead parents."
With out warning he sped out of her room through the open window. "Where are you going?!?!" Kagome demanded. When no answer came, she ran out of her room, down the stairs and out the front door. What she saw surprised her.

A voice interupted Shourai's prayers. "What are you doing here demon?" She turned to see a teenage boy dressed in red, with long silver hair, yellow eyes, and dog ears. "I'm not a d-demon!" Shourai said unsurely, stumbling over the words, "And I-I'm just here p-praying!" "A likely story." the boy said, "If you're here for the jewel, then you'll have to fight me demon!"
"I'm not a demon!" the girl cried.
"Inuyasha, sit!" Shourai watched amazed as the boy who had accused her of being a demon was pulled to the ground by the necklace he wore. A girl stepped out of the house on the shrine grounds and began walking towards them. Shourai had seen her before. She was the priest's grandaughter.
The spell wore off and the boy stood up. "What the hell was that for wench?!?!" he demanded, turning towards the girl. He seemed to have forgotten that Shourai was there. "For scaring the girl." the priest's grandaughter replied, "You have no right to call her a demon. You're worse than my grandpa!"
"I do too have the right to call her a demon!" the boy yelled, "She smells like one!" "You said she smelled more like water than a demon!" "But she still smells like a demon, damnit!"
Shourai watched as the two fought and decided this was a good time to take her leave. She stood up, and ran/limped quickly down the stairs from the shrine to the street.

A man sat behind his desk in a dark room. With his black hair and dark eyes he could easily pass as a human, but in reality he was a demon. A bad one at that. "Nishiwaki!" he called. A second demon walked into the room. This one looked a lot more like a demon. Dark green hair and the eyes to match. He was tall and thin.
"What is it Master Hilingar?" the demon named Nishiwaki asked bowing. "Sesshoumaru of the Western Lands is looking for the young girl who will be our downfall." the first demon said, "That means I have two jobs for you." "What are they?" Nishiwaki questioned.
"First." Hilingar said, "We must start our own search for this girl and eliminate her. Second. We will put a decoy girl out and lure Sesshoumaru towards her and make him think she is the one. Both of these things I leave to you.
Nishiwaki bowed again. "I will completely them well." he said. "Leave." Hilingar commanded. The demon scurried out of the room.

Inuyasha: Nishiwaki? What the hell?

Clear Waters: It was in one of my Rurouni Kenshin books. I thought it was a funny name so I used it.

Inuyasha: Funny? Try idiotic.

Kagome: Whatever. Inuyasha! What are you trying to do?!?! Scare the poor girl silly?!

Inuyasha: That's about it.

Miroku: But she's just a young girl! Even if she was a demon what harm could she do?

Sango: You'd say that letcher.

Miroku: What?

Shippo: I still haven't been in this story!

Clear Waters: This is going to be a long one. You'll have pleanty of time to get in there. Same with you, Miroku and Sango.

Sango: That's good.

Miroku: Agreed.

Inuyasha: And I want to know what happens so you'd better not have anymore of that 'homework'.

Clear Waters: If I didn't have anymore I'd be the happieste person on the face of the earth.

Kagome: Same here.

Clear Waters: R&R everyone!
