Hikari Lunar: (appears out of nowhere) I have authoress POWER! (wavessummoning wand) I summon the cuteness of Ryou Bakura to do my bidding!

Puff of smoke: PROOF! (Ryou from Yu-gi-oh appears)

Hikari: OK! Ryou, you know what to do!

Ryou: (clears throat and reads disclaimer) HIKARI LUNAR DOES NOT OWN

ME, INU-YASHA, OR (re-reads paper) a...mad cow?

Hikari: (sobbing in the corner of the room) Start (sob!) the ficcy!

0000000000

All of the group laid contently around their little camp. Hikari and Inu Yasha were having another name battle. Random insults filled the air.

"At it already? Why am I not surprised?" Miroku said shortly followed by a yawn.

"Yeah, maybe we should stop-" Kagome started but was interrupted by a sudden wave of insults.

"Son of a-a DOG!" Hikari pointed an accusing finger at Inu Yasha.

"And proud of it!" Inu Yasha stuck out his tongue.

" Haha! Really?" Hikari gave Inu Yasha the finger.

"You little- Your SO dead!" Inu Yasha lunged forward.

"Heh, heh, let's see you try!" Inu Yasha clawed at her but she leaped quickly out of the way. Everyone sweat dropped at the hilarious sight. Inu Yasha growling and slashing out at Hikari, and Hikari was wagging her tail, panting happily and escaping from Inu Yasha's grasp at the last minute.

Shippo stared wide eyed at the playing canines. "But didn't they get a tie in the contest of slaying demons?"

Myoga shrugged, "Dogs will be dogs..." The flea demon had returned

shortly after the battle ended. "Can't change their stubborn, arrogant nature." Hikari stomped over to Myoga.

"Who the hell are you calling a dog?" Her face had a frightening

expression that sent shivers down Myoga's spine.

"Uh..uh, oh no..." Hikari's foot came down on Myoga and crushed him. "Such...is the fate of a flea...oww." He popped back up and hopped onto Hikari's nose. "Ah, I have never encountered a werewolf and tried their blood!" He began sucking up blood.

"Flea!" Hikari flicked him away. Hakisuma caught him before he hit the ground. Hikari stared in Hakisuma's direction. Her gaze softened a bit, but she turned away once Hakisuma looked at her. "Shouldn't we be looking for that bastard's castle?" she asked, keeping her back to the others. Her hatred for Naraku could be heard in her words.

"Yeah, but that wrench, Akigoumo ran off. Knew we shouldn't have

trusted her." Inu Yasha waved his hand angrily in the air.

"Maybe something else happened to her. We have to give her the benefit of the doubt." Hakisuma replied. She gave Sango a begging look. "Right? Plus,

she had offered to lead us to Naraku's castle! Maybe Naraku got her!"

Sango smiled at Hakisuma and stood up, "Yes, you are probably right. We cannot rush to conclusions. We have to go looking for her then to find out what happened."

"Hmmm, Akigoumo told me that she had been working for Naraku. But she was using it as a cover to find out about him." Hikari sighed and rested her chin on her hand.

"Well maybe it's true!" Hakisuma began to collect all of her stuff together. "Let's get going!" The others nodded in agreement and got their things as well, and they were soon off. Inu Yasha ran ahead, carrying Kagome and Shippo. Hakisuma, Sango and Miroku followed on Kii and Kirara. Hikari

was transformed, taking the back.

"Hey! Inu Yasha have you picked up her scent yet!?" Shippo hollered over the wind.

"There's a faint scent of Akigoumo but I pick up a stronger scent of Kohaku and Kagura!" Inu Yasha spun around suddenly. "It's coming from behind us!" Sure enough, Kohaku appeared along with Kagura.

"Grr, that wind witch!" Hikari growled as she drew her Divine Blade.

"Nice to see you again, puppy." Kagura sneered then added loudly, "We have been sent here for a special reason! To fight you, but not just us..." She waved her fan and her eyes flashed red. "We brought a few friends along." Two figures appeared, blurry at first but then they became clear.

"F-father?!" Hikari cried out in confusion. She transformed back and her arms fell limply to her sides.

"Otou-san?" Hakisuma to crawled off of Kii, "I-is that really you?" Hakisuma approached the man with caution.

"They missed their daughters so much that they decided to come back to see them." Kagura let out a hollow chuckle. "But...Naraku did have to make a few adjustments..." As if on cue Hikari's father transformed into a large gray and white werewolf. His towering figure lumbered over to Hikari's frozen form.

Hakisuma's father's ears grew into pointed, black fox demon ears and

his claws extracted.

Hikari began to back away. "No, no, no..." Hikari whimpered and tried desperately to get away. "Stay away!" Inu Yasha and the others stared dumbfounded. Kohaku suddenly leaped forward along with Kagura towards the others and were soon engaged in a battle.

Hakisuma was staring at her father who was beginning to approach her, "Hakisumaaa...hmhmm, how are you?" He asked calmly in a sweet fake voice. He finally reached her and began playing with her hair, his jet black eyes stared her down. Hakisuma stepped back.

(Hikari)

Hikari was struggling to get away from her father, "Why. May I ask...did you turn down Naraku's deal...eh?" The large wolf raised his massive hand and

brought it down across Hikari's face. "IDIOT!" he yelled. Hikari held her face with a trembling hand. She looked down to the ground.

"I-I-I- can't turn...on friends..." Hikari mumbled softly, feeling

uncomfortable under her father's hard glare.

Hikari's father smirked suddenly. "You will regret that.." with a burst of power he slashed at Hikari. Blood flew forward as injures that appeared randomly on her body. Blood shot out of her mouth and she soon became numb. She looked down with groggy eyes, the ground rushed forward as she fell face first. There was a thudding sound as her body made contact with the ground. Hikari's father grinned, revealing long, white canine teeth. "My work her is done.., heh, heh. What a weakling." His emerald eyes glittered as he kicked Hikari's limp body away.

(Hakisuma)

At that same moment, Hakisuma was arguing with her father. Her father began beating at her. "You are nothing other then a worthless little girl. Naraku's orders are to get you to come with me or to have you destroyed." His jet black fox ears folded back as he snarled and gave Hakisuma another kick.

Hakisuma glanced up, "You'd hurt me? To follow Naraku's orders?" Tears streamed down her face and turned pink as they mixed with the blood that covered her face. "You-you could never be my father!" She stood up shakily,

"You are just one of Naraku's evil creations! You are nothing but an

imposter!" She sobbed angrily and got into fighting position. She

clawed at him and he did the same to her. Blood poured out of her nose as her father's fist came in contact with it. She tried and tried but she was no match for his speed and strength. Her body gave in to the pain and she collapsed. Chuckling, the tall man left, following Hikari's father.

Kagura smiled, "Good enough, now we have them traumatized. Maybe they will change their minds...if they survived." Kagura summoned up her feather and left her battle with Inu Yasha, followed by Kohaku and the imposters.
