Reunited Love
Chapter 5- "Neko-Yasha"
Disclaimer: Once again, my friends, nor I own Inu-Yasha.
For those of you who were...quite eager for an update *looks at katsie2*, here it is.
Katsie2- Sorry it took so long for an update...but...I didn't get to many reviews, which made me think that not many people read this story. Besides, Finding Lost Love is more popular then this one, so I update that one more because I know people read that one. Just don't expect the next update for this one to be quick, okay?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakeri crept a bit closer to the purple clad figure that had landed on top of Miroku.
"Neko-Yasha? Is that you?"
"Huh?" The figure, now revealed as Neko-Yasha, looked up at Sakeri. "Hi Sakeri! I haven't seen you in a while!"
"Nice to see you again Neko-Yasha! What have you been up to?"
"Nothing much, just collecting some Shi-EEEEK!!" Neko-Yasha shrieked as she felt a hand wandering where it shouldn't be. "PERVERT!!! *WHACK*"
Everyone sweatdroped.
"Che, stupid monk." Inu-Yasha said plainly.
"I guess I should have warned you about Miroku." Sakeri said with a sweatdrop still on her head.
"Miroku?" Neko-Yasha looked at said monk, who had a red handprint on his cheek and a large lump on his head. "Oh...him..."
Miroku rubbed his red cheek. "It is a pleasure to meet you Lady Neko-Yasha. Any friend of Lady Sakeri is a friend of ours! Personally, I hope we get to learn more about each other..."
Just as Miroku was about to make another advance, he felt something metallic colliding with his head, followed by a small metallic ringing.
"I don't think so, you perverted houshi." Neko-Yasha tured to the others. "So...who are you all? How do you know Sakeri?"
"I'm Kagome! We met Sakeri after she got a Shikon Jewel shard from an ox youkai!"
"I'm Sango, and this is Kilala!" Sango motioned to Kilala, who was on her shoulder. "Inu-Yasha looked very interested in Sakeri!"
"Really?" Neko-Yasha turned to look at Sakeri and Inu-Yasha, who was getting embarrassed at his comrades telling about one of his very few emotional moments, and he was starting to see red.
"Yeah! Inu-Yasha was all kissy-kissy with her!" Shippou added as he jumped onto Neko-Yasha's shoulder. Neko-Yasha couldn't help but to laugh. She'd never known Sakeri to have a love interest before, but she was told about a "special" dog hanyou she liked, and well, Inu-Yasha is a dog hanyou. But the fact that Inu-Yasha's face was as red as his outfit was only fueling her laughter.
"What's your name?" Neko-Yasha asked Shippou, who was also laughing at the red-faced dog hanyou.
"My name is Shippou! And that's Inu-Yasha of coarse!" Shippou said, pointing to the dog hanyou.
*WHACK* "WAAA!! Kagome!! Inu-Yasha hit me!"
"SIT BOY!!"
*THUD* "$#(^&@$% WENCH!!"
Neko-Yasha sweatdroped. This is a very strange group that Sakeri joined.
~~~*~~~*~~~*Few hours later*~~~*~~~*~~~
Neko-Yasha had joined the team and everyone had started back on the journey for the Shikon Jewel Shards. Miroku had decided that he had enough lumps and slaps for the day, so he did his best to behave so he wouldn't get walloped by the rest of the group, or at least, until they calmed down toward his lecherous ways.
Just then they heard a tiny shout from a little ways up ahead and a tiny dot in the sky crash landed a few feet away near the entrance of the forest they were about to enter.
"Eh? That scent..." Inu-Yasha said as he sniffed the air.
"Do you know who that was?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah, but...it doesn't make sense...that had to of been Jaken...but without Sesshomaru...."
"Maybe he's on a scouting mission?" Shippou asked.
"If he was, don't you think he'd be riding on a demon or ogre instead of screaming his head off in mid air?" Inu-Yasha replied rudely. "Sesshomaru must be mad at him...don't blame him for that though...ugly toad..."
"Jaken? Sesshomaru?" Neko-Yasha looked at Sakeri, who just shrugged. 'enemies then?'
"Let's see what happened." Sango said as she started walking in Jaken's direction, but also ready if Jaken pulled some kind of attack on her. She was soon followed by the rest of the group.
~~*~~
"Ow, that wench is going to pay for that!" Jaken groaned as he picked himself off from the ground and brushed the dirt off his clothes. "She'll get the death sentence! But first I have to get back to Lord Sesshomaru's castle..." He was about to start wandering around to get out of the forest when he heard a mass of voices. The voices of his lord's idiot brother, the kitsune brat, and the worthless humans that tagged along. 'Great, just what I need now.' He thought to himself sarcastically as he attempted to run away, practically unarmed except for the Staff of Heads, which did have it's limits. But before he could get far, Inu-Yasha jumped right in front of him. Then Jaken tried running in another direction. But the whole group had him surrounded.
"Get out of my way!" Jaken yelled. He knew he was outnumbered, and out powered, and he was deathly afraid, anyone of the group could kill him, with the exception of the young kitsune. But he wouldn't let his fear show.
"What are you doing all the way out here on your own, toad?" Inu-Yasha said.
"N-none of your business, half breed!"
But as soon as Jaken said "half breed", he found two fists smashing both sides of his face. Both Yashas had punched him in anger.
"Watch it toad! I wouldn't be calling anyone names if I were you!" Neko-Yasha glared at Jaken.
"Now, answer my question. And if you don't, I'll kill you right where you stand!" Inu-Yasha coldly said as he readied his claws, causing Jaken to gulp hard.
"I was kicked out of a window by the new Neko servant! There, happy?"
"Eh? Kicked out by a cat? Pathetic." Inu-Yasha said when he caught small glares from Sakeri and Neko-Yasha. Right, they were Nekos, best not to insult their breed with them around.
Jaken took the opportunity to try to escape once more, only to be stopped and lifted by the back of his neck by Sakeri.
"Who is this "new servant"?" Sakeri questioned as she kept an eye on Jaken, obviously very concerned about something...or someone...
"I-I don't really know, I think her name was...Luna, or something like that." Jaken answered, not willing to risk getting killed by the breed of demon that had put him in this mess in the first place.
"LUNA?!" Both Nekos yelled out at once.
"You know who the Jaken is talking about?" Miroku asked.
"Yeah, she's Sakeri's sister!" Neko-Yasha answered.
"I knew something was wrong..." Sakeri said to herself. But she quickly turned her attention to Jaken again. "Where is she?"
"At Lord Sesshomaru's castle."
"And where is the castle?" Sakeri was getting annoyed. Jaken pointed West. "How far?"
"I don't know how far the neko kicked me!"
Inu-Yasha jumped onto a tree branch.
"I'll take a look" He said as he climbed farther up, up to the top of the tree and looked for the castle, which was only a speck in the distance. He then jumped back down. "It's a long ways away. A week's walk at least."
"Well then, we better get going." Kagome said as she shifted her backpack on her back.
"And if you'll excuse me..." Jaken leaped out of Sakeri's grip, only to be caught again by Neko-Yasha.
"You're coming with us!" Neko-Yasha said as she tied Jaken and the Staff of Heads up to her metallic purple staff.
'Lord Sesshomaru! Please come save me from these barbaric humans and demons! I don't know how much more I can take!'
