Musume no Shorai – Chapter 12

It did look like Kagura, but she looked younger. Kagura's kimono was also much darker, but relatively the same.

"Are you alright mother?" Kagure turned and kneeled next to Keeko.

"I'm fine Kagura." Keeko said, standing up, then turned to the Inu gang, who were all giving her strange looks. "Thing's are not as they appear, true my Kagura is similar to the Kagura my father created, but this Kagura is merely a shadow of her."

"Okay..." Inuyasha blinked. "But why did she call you mom?"

"Obviously because I treat my creations much kinder than my father did, like I was their parent." Keeko tilted her head and smiled. "You will find four other's like Kagura, but they are resting back at my castle now so you will meet them later."

"And this kid?" Inuyasha nodded to the male who stood between the group and Keeko.

"My son, Chiruu." Keeko stated. Chiruu's expression was much like Sesshomaru's, and he was obviously a demon from his golden eyes and silver hair, which was pulled into a ponytail.

Chiruu's kimono was black, going in what was obviously some sort of dress code like Keeko and Kagura's, resembling Inuaysha's.

"Do you want us to finish them off mother?" Kagura asked, pointing her fan at Sesshomaru.

"No, you and I will return to the castle," Keeko started to lift off of the ground, seemingly with no effort. "Chiruu, I trust you will show these simpletons that we mean business?"

"Of course." Chiruu nodded at Kagura that he would be fine by himself. Kagura, reluctantly, pulled a feather from her hair, and transformed it, fallowing behind Keeko and the insects.

Chiruu watched them go, seeming to ignore the presence of the others. Inuyasha growled, annoyed.

"Are you just goanna stand there looking dumb?" Chiruu looked at him. "Or are you goanna fight?"

"Be careful Inuyasha." Miroku warned, but just a second after, Chiruu pounced. Chiruu kicked Inuyasha, in the face, sending him flying backward.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled, horrified. With great speed, Chiruu went after Miroku, swiping at him with his claws.

Miroku blocked with his staff, every so often trying to hit Chiruu, who just ducked each time.

"Ha!" Sango threw her boomerang at Chiruu in an attempt to get him away from Miroku, it worked, but at the same time, failed. True, it made Chiruu jump away from his attack on Miroku, but it also

"Miroku!" Sango cried, watching as her was thrown into a nearby hut by her boomerang.

"Sango, look out!" Shippo screamed at Sango, but it was a bit late. Chiruu, with one kick from behind, sent Sango flying a few feet before landing on the ground.

Chiruu turned to his next victim, the young kitsune. Kagome readied another arrow.

"Keep away from him!" Kagome yelled, releasing the arrow. Chiruu jumped away from Shippo, the arrow landing just in front of him.

Chiruu looked at Kagome with his cold gaze, Kagome pulled out her third arrow and aimed.

"Move, and I'm putting it right through you're head!" Kagome hissed, but Chiruu ignored her.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha watched as Chiruu ran at her, readying his flexed claws to strike.

"Mom!" Sachi screamed. Something green wrapped it-self around Chiruu's next, bringing him to a halt.

"Going after those who are weaker than you?" Sesshomaru had an uncharacteristic hint of caring in that statement. "You are pathetic."

Chiruu glared at him, his burning flesh seeming to be causing him only the slightest bit of discomfort. Minaru decided to use this opportunity to cause some damage to Chiruu, he threw his kusarikama (A/N: Ha! I finally figured out what it was called!!) at Chiruu, hitting and sticking in his shoulder. Rin fallowed with her own attack, pulling her sword from her belt and swiped at Chiruu with her blade magick.

Seeing his chance, Inuyasha looked to Chiruu to start his attack. The color's were there again, blue hitting against orange.

"Wind scar!" Inuyasha swung his sword once more, hoping that unlike Keeko, Chiruu didn't know how to defend himself against the Tetsusaiga's attacks. And what luck, Chiruu could only fold his arms in front of his face in a feeble attempt to shield himself from the oncoming assault.

"Finish him Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled to Kagome once the attack was done. Chiruu looked on the verge of collapsing.

"Right." Kagome readied her fourth and final arrow. She aimed carefully, Kagome already felt guilty about shooting him when he was injured, and she'd hate herself if she didn't finish him off with one shot and had to shoot him again.

Kagome released her grasp on the arrow, sending it flying at Chiruu's heart. The arrow transformed this time, with a light purple glow surrounding it.

'That must be the sacred arrow Natsuko was talking about' Sachi thought, watching the arrow close in on its target. Seemingly out of nowhere, another arrow whizzed past Chiruu, clashing with Kagome's.

"What?" Kagome watched as the arrow's canceled each other out.

"Dance of blades!" The familiar attack, once again, caused Sesshomaru's whip to disappear. "I told mother it was a good idea to come back."

Kagura landed gracefully, closing her fan. Two other's were with her, all were recognized by the original Inuyasha gang.

"Keeko's been busy..." Rin said, gritting her teeth.

"Kikyo." Inuyasha stared in disbelief; it was Kikyo! She looked exactly the same, and stood next to someone no one would have thought she would have

"Tsubaki," Kikyo said to her companions, her bow already ready arrow. "Kagura, do what you want with the rest, but Inuyasha is mine."

Wow, that hurt, Inuyasha looked as if a train had hit him.

"Kikyo-" Inuyasha jumped, avoiding the arrow Kikyo had released at him. "Don't do this!"

Inuyasha pulled out his sword, but he didn't want to use it on Kikyo.

"Go my serpent!" Tsubaki commanded, and her large snake jumped at Kagome baring its fangs. Kagome fire's another arrow, but the snake dodges.

Natsuko notices her mother's hiraikotsu lying near by, and quickly picks it up.

"Ha!" Natsuko, with all her might, throw's the larger boomerang at Tsubaki's snake. "Yes!"

The snake is cut right down the middle by the boomerang, with such force that it doesn't even come back to Natsuko and just sticks in the ground behind the snake. But, no blood spills, and the snake simply land's on the ground in a heap, slithering back together.

"No way!" Tsubaki laughs at Natsuko's frustration, and the scared expression of the human's before her.

"My serpent is indestructible." Tsubaki says, her snake hissing at the group. "And you have now made my little snake very unhappy, so you shall be the first to die!"
