100!!!! 100!!! OMG!!! HOLY (bleeeep) !!!!!(Does a little victory dance) I HAVE 100 REVIEWS!!! DO YOU KNOW THE LONG TERM EFFECTS OF THIS WILL BE?! I MEAN, LIKE I'M GOING TO BE UPDATING LIKE FOUR TIMES A WEEK OR SOMETHING!! EVEN FOR MY NEXT FAN FIC!!! OMG!!! 100 REVIEWS!!!!
Must… breath… hyperventilated…
Okay, I know that many of you readers are like "Uh, dude, hello?! What happened to the romance?! And why hasn't there been a kissing scene yet?!" Well, the romance is only kinda gone for the whole battle with Zephuru, and then it will come back full blast. And also, I am making this into a SERIES fan fiction, so the huge, spectacular, standing ovation kissing scene won't be in this story. I believe it will be in the third… or was it second… oh crap, I've confused myself again. But, there will be a minor kiss scene near the last chapter when Inuyasha is- WHOA, that was close. I almost gave you guys the plot!! Okay, back to chapter writing…
(oh, and hongtoo means wind in Chinese… I think…)
( I is running from the bazooka. from a review)
(same song as last time, but near the end I'll cue you go to rurouni kenshin and put it to shaded dreams. This is on I c h i go s . com by the way)
(sorry the last one was so short, I had writers block for a few days, but I got out of it. No clue how that happened. Although, I believe all of the stress I have been put under by band class, Composition class, math class death to math, and my parents fed the killer of stories. Wait a minute, I'm supposed to be writing a chapter here! Aie, sorry, shutting up)

CHAPTER 23- Hurricane Zephuru - Part Three - Stricken
'Oh no, Inuyasha…' Kagome thought to herself, watching the boy of fire fall to the ground. "This is not good. Huh?" she said. (A/N - How the hell did that happen? flips through pages of a big packet That's not in the script!)
"Kagome…?!" Inuyasha turned around, and looked at her face, which turned to horror. "LOOK OUT!"
Zephuru's staff shot straight through Inuyasha, pouring out blood. He cringed, feeling the searing pain irradiate through his body.
The wind child withdrew his weapon from the hanyou, and fell back to his orginal spot. He grinned maliciously. "Inuyasha, you can't ignore me and get away with it. Even if your mate has broken through my spell, it's not like she can do much against me."
Kagome - not happy. "Excuse me?! I am so capable of doing something to you!"
"Keh, I'd like to see you try."
The orb of souls gave a much more powerful aura as Kagome's battle Kimono melted onto her body, as well as the bow and quiver of arrows. She immediately grabbed her weapon, snagged an arrow from the bunch, and put it into aim for the boy. "Then watch!"
- -P.O.V. change- - (Ranma 1/2 - TV opening)
Kaede pulled out one of her miko arrows and her bow, getting set for battle. Ayame on the other hand. "Hold it, when you attacked me before, didn't you use some kind of orb thing?"
"Oh, you thought I was using that for power? Idiot…" he pulled a glass sphere on a chain out from underneath his kimono. "This is simply an amplifier of my wind."
"I have heard enough!" Kagura yelled, lunging at the boy with her fan. Rather the impulsive one, isn't she? Zephuru pulled a staff out of air, and shot a straight line of wind to the wind witch. "Fujin!"
Kagura now saw that all that she had heard about this boy was true, so she raised her fan, and countered. "Fujin!"
The effect of the two attacks… nothing. Ayame and Kaede just looked at each other, and then back to the fighting people of the wind in front of them. "I will go inside to get yon bowl of stew, and then come back to watch yon show. Would ye care for any?"
"Sure." The wolf demoness sat down, watching the evenly matched Kagura and Zephuru duking it out. "I wanted to fight some too…"
After a minute, Kaede came back outside, and sat next to her wolf friend, and handed her a bowl of stew.
"Arigato."
"Tis nothing to worry about." The miko took the bowl up to her lips, and sipped in some of her famous stew. "This should be a wonderful performance."
Ayame looked off far into the trees, and noticed the sky turning red and orange. "Oh, sunset…"
"Hmm?" Kaede looked off into the distance where her wolfen friend was, and suddenly came to her senses. "BY THE GODS, I FORGOT TO TELL THEM!"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
Kaede first took a rosary out from her kimono, said some words, and the beads materialized around the boy. "What in the…?"
"Ayame, say a word of subjugation."
"Huh?" a bug buzzed it's way around the wolf demoness. "Ugh, get away you fly!"
Zephuru shot straight up in the air, and came back down and into the earth. Crash.
Ayame's eyes popped straight open, as did Kagura's. "What the-"
"I did a similar spell upon Lord Inuyasha, who now is rendered useless when Kagome says the word "Sit." That word is on my list of well working words, but ye, Ayame, just chose one of the top ten."
"You have a system?" Kagura floated down to the ground, and walked over to the miko and wolf demoness. Kaede pulled a rolled up scroll out of her kimono (A/N - How much stuff does she have in there?!), and handed it to Ayame. " I have no system, tis a list."
"Oh my…" The wind witch peered over the shoulder of the miko and demoness, and looked stunned at some of the words. "MELT?!"
"Aye, that is a good one as well."
"Hm…" a thought popped into her mind. "Do you think that you could put one of these rosaries around my masters neck?"
"If ye bring Naraku here without ending too many being's lives, no problem."
Kagura got an awful idea. She got an awful, terrible idea. But would she listen to us, noooo, uh-uh… 'Naraku… I have finally come up with a way to free myself from your grasp.'
Ayame suddenly looked a little cheery, as the wind boy began to regain conciousness. "Kagura, what word would you use?"
"I would say…"
- - place change- - (Evangelion : cruel angel's thesis 2) ( This is like kick ass music)
Kagome let her arrow fly. The wind child blocked easily with his staff, and grinned. "Do you think it's going to be that easy to take me down?… Wait a minute…?!" both Kagome and Inuyasha were stumped. But not for long, for the staff lost it's luster and color as Kagome's arrow melded with it.
The staff trembled for a moment, before 'dissolving' into the wind. " You wretch, you exorcized my Rod of the Seven Winds!!"
"Oh, oops."
"What are you apologizing for, idiot. That's a good thing!!" Inuyasha bolted forward, Tetsusaiga in hand. "Kongousouha!!" The sword turned into a diamond as usual, but something wasn't right. The diamond shards getting thrown at Zephuru were… brown. That's right, brown.
Inuyasha suddenly felt his already acute senses get kicked up a notch. Not to mention that the brown shard around his neck was glowing warmly.
Zephuru was stuck in his spot, only able to look at the sharp, impending doom in front of him. But the moment that the shards would have turned his body into, well, nothing, they merged together in the shape of a canine. A canine, that moved.
Inuyasha stood wide eyed at the attack he just brought fourth, a diamond, brown, beast slashing the crap out of his opponent. Not that he minded.
"Damn… he has a shard of beasts…" Zephuru cursed, before getting slashed across the throat. He collapsed in a heap on the ground, and the barrier around them all dispersed. The storm up above dissipated to only a few clouds.
As their other friends, and Naena, woke up, Kagome sighed one of relief. "Its finally over…
Miroku walked over to the boy, raised a hand, and began to pray for his repose. Inuyasha on the other hand, "Keh, that kid was nothing."
"Whatever…"
Kagome walked over to the top of a hill in the street, and watched as the sun began to fade below the horizon. 'Wow, that storm did a lot…'
As Miroku continued with his efforts, he felt something grab hold of his leg. He opened his eyes, and saw that Zephuru was indeed not dead. "What the…!!!!!"
The houshi jumped back, avoiding jumping out of his skin. The wind child looked meek, as if he would die at any moment. He glared toward Kagome.
Inuyasha walked over to the miko, still feeling the side effects of the jewel shard spaz attack. It was not hard to hear her heart beat quicken with him getting closer. "Thanks."
"Hmm?"
"Back there, you destroyed his staff. If that never happened, it would have been a lot tougher killing Zephuru."
"INUYASHA, KAGOME, LOOK OUT!!" Miroku shouted.
The hanyou's hair began to turn black, as they turned around to see Zephuru alive, and pointing his hand at Kagome. "D… DIE!!!"
A lightning bolt surged through the boy's hand, and made its way for the girl. But the moment before it struck her, Kagome saw the boy next to her stand in front.
"INUYASHA, NO!"
The bolt struck, and Inuyasha was sent flying backwards into Kagome. She looked at him, and noticed his hair turning black. "Huh?"
Kagome looked up to the boy who just made an attempt on her life. He grinned, before dieing on the pavement. His body melted away into the wind, just as his staff had.
- - Place change- -
Zephuru (this must be getting confusing. KungPowKitty - HELL YEAH!) sat very scornful looking in Kaede's hut. He had his arm's crossed, and a huge bump on top of his head. Ayame discovered it was fun to send the boy to an expedition to the clouds.
"Zephuru, stop scowering. Otherwise, ye's face shall get stuck in that pose."
"Oh, shut up."
"Kaede," began the wolf demoness. "Didn't you say you forgot to tell someone something?"
"Wonderful choice of words." Kagura piped in, after taking another sip of Kaede's famous stew.
"Aye, I forgot to tell Inuyasha and his companions that tonight is one of a rare happening, known as the Black Moon. Tis when the new moon appears twice in the same month."
"Why should that have anything to do with Inuyasha and the others?" Asked Ayame.
"Because Inuyasha looses his powers on the new moon, and become mortal for the entire night." Answered Kagura.

CLIFFY! HEHEHEHEHEHE!! KLONK! ( I have just gotten hit in the head by a frying pan being wielded by my sister) Owie…
No killing me please, it is still illegal in this country. Also, I don't know if there is an actual name for the happening of two new moons in one month, so if there is, please tell me.
