The Threads of Time

Chapter 2: Foundation of the Demons

Kagome stopped when she saw the figure, "E-excuse me?"

The figure said nothing. Kagome walked closer. She found herself laughing at herself because the figure was only a little girl; about ten or eleven.

The little girl spoke in a happy, friendly voice as she threw the ball to Kagome,"Here's your ball back," she smiled, and seemed so familiar.

The little girl was wearing a sun-hat, and a sun-dress that was a nice, pale yellow, flowing, and ending at her knees, with a small white shirt over it. She had hair was about mid-back, and it was black, her eyes were green-hazel.

"Are you looking for someone?" Kagome asked.

The girl put her hands behind her back, she looked like a sweet little girl, "I'm just waiting for my brother."

Kagome asked, "Oh? Do I know him?"

The little girl had a quick moment of fright and said quickly, "No!" She calmed and said at a normal rate, " uh, no... he's new here."

Kagome remembered the boy from earlier, "Oh yeah. I bumped into him this morning."

One of Kagome's class mates called to her, "C'mon Kagome! What's taking so long?"

"Coming," Kagome yelled back before she turned to the little girl, "What's your name?"

The little girl looked over-joyed by the question, which made Kagome wonder, " oh its Kiyokina!" Her expression quickly turned to fright as she slapped her hands over her mouth, which made Kagome even more suspicious.

"Kiyokina?" Kagome smiled sweetly, "That's a pretty name."

As Kiyokina put her hands down and Kagome ran back to her class mates, Kiyokina smiled a sad smile and whispered to herself, "Of corse you think that..."

A voice in the bushes behind a tree called to her. She ran into the bushes saying, "Sorry, I couldn't help it," with a serious expression on her face.

The bell rang.

Everyone ran out of school. In the process, she saw the new boy walk out, and meeting the little girl infront.

"Oh!" Kagome said to herself as she ran to the two siblings. She stopped beside theml both, " Hello again! I met your little sister Kiyokina," Kagome smiled at her, "but I didn't catch yours."

At the sound of his little sisters name he glared at her for a moment, then turned to look down at Kagome, she could tell there was a hint of fear in his eyes, "Its no-"

He was cut-off by the white and red streak running around the corner, "Kagome!" It was Inuyasha, he had remembered to wear that red and blue cap. He stopped in front of Kagome, "What were you thinking you thinking; coming back here!"

The two siblings stared wide eyed at the two.

Inuyasha and Kagome just kept on arguing, "Well im sorry that I went to schoo!"

Inuyasha glared at her, "We have to find the final shard! When we find it, we find Naraku!"

Kagome remembered the two people standing in back of her, "W-what are u talking about Inuyasha..." She glared at Inuyasha.

Inuyasha just looked confused, "What? There's no one around"

"Huh?" Kagome looked over her shoulder, the two were no where to be seen, "How strange..."

As Sango sat on a hill next to Shippo and Miroku with Kilala on her lap, her eyes widened, "Miroku... Inuyasha was rong," Miroku looked over at Sango, "There are three more shards left, Kouga has two in his legs, and Kohaku has one emended in his back."

Miroku looked back up at the sky, "Yes, but u musn't forget the one Naraku has; that makes four"

"No..."

Miroku looked curiously at Sango.

She took a deep breath, "I feel that Naraku has no shards of the Shikon no Tama, just someone who has one..."

Miroku had a serious expression on his face, "Kohaku."

Sango's expression saddened, "... yes"

Inuyasha and Kagome were back in the feudal era looking for Sango and Miroku, "Y'know Inuyasha, that final shard could of waited a few more days"

"A few HOURS would be to long Kagome!" Inuyasha growled.

When they saw Miroku and Sango they saw three people standing in front of them. Inuyasha sniffed, cracked his knuckles and said, "Demons...!"

There were two demons, human like, like Inuyasha, one older, around Inuyasha's age, and one younger by about seven years, they had very dark blue hair... almost black, with dog ears, there was one boy, also about Inuyashas age, with dark brown hair, except human; but Inuyasha was to busy running at them to look at the details.

He ran swiftly at them, "What are u here for!" As Inuyasha ran towards them, something came to him like a lighting bolt, 'those aren't demons, there-'

Miroku jumped out, "Inuyasha, stop! Wait!"

Inuyasha skit to a halt, " Miroku! What is it!

Sango spoke out, "These demons are looking for-"

Sango was cut short because as the boy in back of the two demons jumped back into the forest, the older demon put his arm around the younger demon, the younger demon clinging to his shirt. The older demon brushed passed Sango, then started to run at almost lighting speed. He ran swiftly past Inuyasha and strait to Kagome.

Right as it seemed that the demon was going to run into Kagome, he stopped in mid-step, just a few inches away from Kagome's face ,still with the young demon clinging to him.

As he stood in running position in front of Kagome, all of time stopped except for Kagome and the two demons. Because of the way he was running, the older demon's eyes were level with Kagome's, he was looking strait at her, and the younger demon just a few inches below his chin.

Kagome wasn't sure if she was frightened or not. There was something so familiar about the two demons, something that Kagome could never be frightened of.

Time started again and the demon quickly jumped strait up, missing Kagome, into the tree branches above them.

Inuyasha ran to where Kagome was standing, "We have to go after them!"

Inuyasha started to bend his knee's to jump up into the branches when Kagome said, "No Inuyasha... there gone..." She stared blankly up into the trees.

Miroku walked up to Inuyasha and Kagome with Sango behind him. Miroku said, "I was trying to tell you that those demons and other boy were looking for the both of you."

Kagome snapped back to reality, "Us?"

Miroku nodded, "Indeed."

Sango looked at Miroku, "Miroku, was there something familiar about those three?"

Miroku nodded, and both Kagome and Inuyasha thought to themselves, "So I wasn't the only one who thought that?"

Miroku looked up into the tree's, "Well there gone now..." He closed his eyes and looked back down." Lets go back, shall we?"

As Sango and Miroku walked back with Shippo on Miroku's shoulder, Inuyasha stood next to Kagome and said as he looked up into the tree's, "Those demons... they were hanyou's."

Kagome looked over at Inuyasha, "Inuyasha..."

Inuasha looked down to the ground, "There scent was familiar too. Just vaguely I recognized there scent, just a hint of it being familiar..."

Kagome stared at Inuyasha, anxious to here his answer.

Inuyasha said, "It was your scent Kagome... mixed with mine."
