The Case of the Sacred Jewel Episode Three: The Mysterious Thief, Yoko Kurama
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Inuyasha. But I am the proud owner of somebody's soul.

Well, we meet again. And I have some more fanfic for ya'. But first I have some things to say.
In response to l.e.f's review: There was a hole in time that made it so Yoko Kurama was alive in the Feudal Era.
To all my other reviewers: Thanks for your opinions. It's people like you that encourage me to continue writing.
Now that I have that said, on with the fanfic.

"Words" means normal speaking 'words' means that the person is thinking

Inuyasha, Kagome and Yusuke and his friends walked through the village. They were heading towards the building where they were planning to meet Miroku, Sango and Shippo. A mysterious shadow followed them.

"Miroku, Sango, Shippo! I'm back. And I brought some people from my time!" Kagome shouted as the group headed towards Miroku and the others. Miroku looked up and spotted Botan and Kayko. 'Ah, two more lovely ladies to work my charm on' Miroku thought as he headed towards Botan. "Hello, I have one question to ask a pretty lady like you. Will you bear my children?" Miroku asked Botan. "Well...I..Um..." Botan said blushing. "It seems you are to embarrassed to speak. Then how about you, would you do me the honor of bearing my children?" Miroku said, grabbing Kayko's hand in one hand and using his other hand to grab her butt. WHAM! Miroku was now face down on the ground and Yusuke was stomping him and yelling at the top of his lungs about how Miroku had better keep his hands off Kayko or he'll make him flatter than a pancake. After Kuwabara and Kurama had pulled Yusuke off of Miroku and stories had once again been exchanged, the Inuyasha group and Yusuke's group decided to walk a bit off into the woods and then set up camp.

Meanwhile, in a clearing in the woods, not to far from the two group's campsite, the famed thief Yoko Kurama was making a plan to sneak up on this group and steal their Sacred Jewel shards. He had heard about Inuyasha, the half-demon warrior and he had also heard of Miroku, Sango and the mysterious Kagome girl that traveled with them. But he had never seen or heard of the other group. There was something strange about the one red head though. Yoko Kurama shrugged his shoulders and snuck into the forest.

'Kurama there is a demon heading this way, and I think there is something familiar about his energy' Hiei told Kurama telepathically.
'You're right. That's Yoko's energy. But how can it be Yoko is I'm right here. Unless...we have ran into my past self! He must be after the Sacred Jewel.' Kurama thought back.
'Then I will keep watch' Hiei said telepathically.

That night everyone slept, except for Hiei who kept watch. And a vine silently crept towards the spot that Kagome was sleeping. The vine silently reached down Kagome's shirt and grabbed the bottle with the Sacred Jewel shards in it. And it silently crept away.

The next morning, Inuyasha was awoken by a strange noise. It sounded like a creature was saying poo. Inuyasha looked at the horizon. Suddenly everyone else woke up. They stared at the horizon too. The was a small blue creature flying towards them. And it was shouting "Puu!" "On no. Not him!" Yusuke said as Puu landed on his head. "All right you stupid flying penguin. Go bother Kayko," Yusuke said as he took Puu and placed him into Kayko's arms. "Puu!" Puu said.
Suddenly, Kagome shrieked. "The jewel shards have been stolen!" Kagome said. Suddenly Kurama looked at where Kagome had slept. There was a leaf from a vine not native to this region near the spot. "Follow me," Kurama shouted as he ran towards where he thought Yoko Kurama was hiding. Everyone followed him.

Yoko Kurama stared at the Sacred Jewel shards he had just stolen. They were so beautiful yet so powerful. He just stared at the shards for an hour. And that hour was all the time Kurama needed to find Yoko's hiding spot. Soon, Kurama and Yoko Kurama stared each other down. They grinned. This would be a true challenge, to fight yourself.

Kurama's Voice: Well, it looks like the past me has stolen the Sacred Jewel shards and I'm going to have to fight myself to reclaim the shards. And trust me, nothing is harder than fighting yourself. So find out who wins the fight and what happens next on the next episode, Kurama V.S. Kurama. How can I beat myself?

So, the two Kurama's have figured out that they are the same person. So now they will fight for the jewel shards. All right now please, REVIEW!
