Angel Selene: Hello everybody, Sorry I thought I had already updated this. Anyway if you haven't notice I've been fixing my chapters little by little but I've got a way to go still. But know that I'm updating again I'll try to update everything as well as I can but I can't promise a thing. PLEASE REVIEW and tell me what you think.
Chapter 16-Keiko-
Keiko held onto Puu tightly as she heard and felt the impact of a huge crash.
"Shizuru?" She asked, "Do you think their okay?"
"Life maroons the hesitant but inspires the brave." Shizuru told her. "And if there is one thing those guys aren't is chickens, so relax." (I found that in my planner and had to use it) They heard one of the trees rustling as Hiei jumped down to the ground. "Hey sleeping beauty, you could sleep threw a hurricane."
"Hiei are you feeling better." Keiko asked.
"Hn." Was all Hiei response. Keiko noticed Hiei looking around.
"They went to investigate a strange noise that kept coming from the forest." She told him knowing full well what he was looking for.
"Hiei are you alright?" Yukina appeared from behind Shizuru. "If you want I could try to heal you the best way I can with my powers." Botan kept looking everywhere but at Hiei nervously.
"I'm fine." Hiei glared at Botan, and then looked back at Yukina. "What are you doing here?"
"Botan told me you, Kuzuma, Kurama and Yusuke where going to come to the past to train." Yukina started to explain, "So I asked Koenma if he could let me train with you. I really didn't think you would mine much as long as I stayed out of your way." Hiei gave her a long look and then nodded his approval, even if he did keep glaring towards Botan every now and then with a deadly look. Suddenly Rin appeared out of no where giggling towards them, after stopping and looking around she ran behind Hiei. Rin continued to giggle as she hid behind Hiei.
"Hey munchkin what are you doing?" Shizuru asked the giggling behind a very uncomfortable Hiei.
"I'm hiding from Shippou." Rin told them whispering.
"You would think a little girl like her would be terrified of the shrimp's bad attitude." Shizuru told her.
"I may not have known her for long but from what I've seen she's very brave." Keiko told her.
"Puuuuuuuu!" Puu flew out of her hands and onto her head. "Puu puu puu." Suddenly Shippou appeared with his nose in the air.
"Hey kiddo looking for something?" Shizuru asked him
"I can't fine Rin, it's like she disappeared." Shippou told her
"If you ask me blue here got something to do with it." Shizuru told him. "He was glowing like the fourth of July in America."
"Forth of July?" Shippou repeated.
"Don't bust your head kid why don't you keep looking for Rin." Shizuru told him. Suddenly Rin's giggling was heard threw out the clearing, Shippou looked around but couldn't seem to find Rin since he kept away from Hiei.
"Puuu, Puu, puuuuuuu." Puu started to fly around Shippou's head and then flew the opposite direction of where Rin was hiding.
"Wait slow down!" Shippou shouted following behind Puu to the other side of the clearing. Looking around Keiko noticed how green and full of life, the forest seemed to have an air of it's own that she never felt in the forest back in the present.
"It so hard to believe this will one day be Japan." Keiko told no one in particular.
"Yeah, I know, but it's human nature to destroy." Botan told her, "People are trying to fix the problems but it will never be the same as it is now." She gave a small smile, "Many things have parish because of humans but there are still things to love about the future."
"Your right." Keiko said with a smile. She felt a wave of dizziness but shook it off.
"Hey kid, their back." Shizuru told her, "And they brought something along." She looked over and saw Yusuke and everyone else walking their way.
"Yusuke!" Keiko shouted as she waved towards them. Yusuke turned and started to wave back.
"KAGOME!" Shippou ran towards Kagome and jumped into her hand.
"LADY KAGOME!" Rin said running to Kagome from behind Hiei. Keiko felt another wave of dizziness pass her again she shook it off and started to walk towards Yusuke and the others.
"You'll never believe what Kuwabara got." Yusuke told them as they finally reached them.
"Don't tell me, another cat." Shizuru guessed correctly (or partially correct) "Little brother you have got to stop brining stray cats home, we already have nine."
"But Shizuru this one is just so cute." Kuwabara said holding out an adorable cat with two tails.
"That is not a normal cat is it," Shizuru asked.
"No it's not, it's a cat demon." Kurama told them "It's much smarter and more powerful then a normal cat. Plus it doesn't want to leave Kuwabara."
"The damn cat is practically in love with the duffus!" Yusuke stated. Suddenly the cat demon gave Yusuke an evil look, and everyone couldn't stop but laugh at the cute way it looked. As Keiko laughed she felt herself go pale as another wave of dizziness, she felt a sharp pain in her head and began to shake uncontrollably, the pain in her head became horrible and she let a scream escape her lips. Suddenly everything around her disappeared and was replaced by darkness. The darkness lighten little by little until Keiko could see Kagome or at least someone how looked like Kagome walking into a cave, Keiko followed her into the cave, the women looked like Kagome's twin sister except for she looked older and more mature. The woman was carrying a bag and a bowl with water. She was also dressed in a red and white miko robes.
"How do you feel today Oniguma (spell)?" The women asked towards something that laid on the floor of the cave. Looking down Keiko noticed it was a man covered in bandages from what was visible of his body she noticed he was badly burned.
"Much better thanks to your care, miko." Oniguma, which she now knew was the man on the floor, said. "Kikyo, I owe you my life." He told the miko (Kikyo, I don't really like her but I'm not going to bash her unless I get review asking me too.).
"You owe me nothing thief." Kikyo said rather coldly. Keiko didn't have to hear them say her name too be positive it wasn't Kagome but Kikyo because of the cold way she acted. The coldness that Kikyo showed proved that she had probably gone threw a lot in her life and what ever it was it had affected her greatly. Kikyo worked on Oniguma wounds in silence.
"Is something troubling you?" Oniguma asked Kikyo.
"I will not be returning here to tend to you after today." Kikyo told him coldly once more, "Your wounds are no longer a danger. And you can easily move and walk on your own."
"But?" Oniguma began
"You will not have to worry." Kikyo told him. "I have brought you a bag with clothes, food, and a bag of coin to support yourself for sometime. The village west from here knows of you, and will await your arrival."
"Kikyo, you cannot leave me." Oniguma told her.
"You no longer need me, Oniguma." Kikyo told him, "I wish you luck on your life." Kikyo stood up and with a final bow left the cave with out a single look back. Kieko stood there feeling pity for the man that sat on the floor. Oniguma stood up and stood still for a few seconds. By now Keiko could tell they couldn't hear her nor see her. Suddenly Oniguma gave a cry of rage; He began to go on a rampage slamming his fist against the wall like a mad man. He reopened the wounds that had long ago closed as well as making new ones. Keiko couldn't help but feel confused as she watched Oniguma cause himself harm; Keiko wasn't sure why he was so angry. He suddenly stopped and fell to the ground staring at his bloody hands.
"Kikyo how dare you leave." Oniguma stated, "You can't just leave me." He stood up wincing from the pain all around him. Keiko felt his rage and pain that Oniguma seem to be having. Keiko started to cry at the overwhelming feelings of emotion that did not belong to her, something he would not allow himself to do. "I don't deserve you Kikyo, but you will be mine." Oniguma laid there on the straw bed for a while letting out emotions loves, betrayal, sorrow, and pain. Oniguma quietly started to whisper words she could not understand. "I give what is left of my shared body." Suddenly Demons appeared from nowhere and started to plummet into his body. Keiko gave a scream of fright and looked away. After a while the sound of demons cascading his body stopped, looking back she noticed a man with long black hair crouching on the floor. The man and everything around him began to get blurry once more and the last thing she saw before everything went black was a large spider burn on his back. The pounding stopped and everything around her went into complete darkness. Keiko tried to make herself stop shaking and crying when the pain in her head returned and she was thrown into another vision. Everything cleared and seemed to be more clear then the last since it seem to take place in the middle of the day in a heavily wooded area. Keiko looked around and after a few seconds saw a man step out of the trees; the man was wearing a large bamboo pelt, which was being moved wildly with the force of an unfelt wind. Like before the man didn't see Keiko so she just stood there and watched. He stopped walking and lowered his hood. She gasped it was the same man from the cave. Keiko screamed as she saw something come out of Oniguma's pelt. Whatever had come out of him started to move around in a strange motion and soon looked like the replica of Oniguma.
"Naraku!" the replica said with venom in his voice. Keiko felt confuse the one she thought was Oniguma had just been called Naraku.
"Oniguma." The one that had just been called Naraku told the man on the ground. Keiko's confusion only increased as the one named Oniguma started to run from the one called Naraku. (I'm confused and I'm writing this.) The vision disappeared and everything went black once more, Keiko started to wake up with huge pain only to find Yusuke slapping her.
"KEIKO, WAKE UP, STOP GOING INTO STUPID STATES." She bowled up her hand and then let it hit his face as hard as possible.
"YOU JERK!"
-Shizuru-
As they all laughed at the small cat, Shizuru noticed Keiko go pale and start to shake violently.
"Keiko?" Shizuru whispered, suddenly Keiko's legs gave out. Shizuru caught her before Keiko hit the floor only to be thrown back by an unknown force.
"KEIKO!" Yusuke screamed as he too was thrown back with everyone else. Keiko was giving off large amounts of spirit energy; Keiko started to glow an unusual purple as she started to levitate off the ground.
"What is going on?" Sango asked as the wind around them started blow in a hectic manner. Sango was holding onto Kilala who had transformed and was keeping Sango from flying away.
"She is being surrounded by a power shield." Miroku screamed above the wind.
"There has got to be some way to get to her!" Shizuru told them shouting. She was holding onto a root that was sticking out of the ground. The root broke and she flew back, Before she could hit anything Shizuru was caught by Miroku who had his staff implanted on the ground.
"Are you alright?" Miroku shouted towards her.
"I'm fine." Shizuru told him, "Thank you." Keiko gave a horrible scream as she gave off a wave of spirit energy.
"KEIKO!" Yusuke and Puu tried to get threw the shield by slamming into it but had absolutely no luck as the shield kept throwing them back.
"Yusuke it's no use she radiating to much spirit energy." Kurama screamed towards Yusuke. Suddenly Keiko gave another scream, which sent chills everyone's back.
"Inuyasha use the Tetsusaiga." Kagome told the half demon.
"What and let the wind carry you who knows where." Inuyasha shouted as he held onto Kagome.
"I'll keep hold of her." Kurama shouted as he walked towards them.
"Problem solved." Kagome said reaching towards Kurama.
"If anything happens to her I'll kill you." Inuyasha warned him. He handed Kagome over to Kurama who quickly took a tight grip on Kagome. He gave them an extra hold by calling a large root from the ground to hold onto.
"Shut up and help Keiko." Kagome reproached him. "Yusuke stand back, Inuyasha's going to break the shied." Yusuke got away from the shield though he seemed to hesitate but seemed to trust Kagome.
"Everyone stand back." Inuyasha shouted as he drew his blade back as he did it the blade turned red ready for him to bring the blade down. Inuyasha brought the blade down and like the wind scar in three separate shots. It hit the shield and then went up destroying the energy it was made of. As soon as the shield disappeared the wind stopped.
"Keiko!" Yusuke ran towards Keiko worry plain on his face. As he finally reached Keiko, she stopped glowing and fell strait into Yusuke's arms. "Keiko are you alright? Keiko? COME ON SNAP OUT OF IT!" Keiko gave a small scream in his arms. Everybody ran towards them and surrounded them. "Oh fuck this!" Yusuke slapped Keiko across the face several times.
"Yusuke stop it!" Kagome screamed but was held back by Sango. Keiko stopped screaming.
"KEIKO WAKE UP, STOP GOING INTO STUPID STATES." Yusuke continued to slap Keiko. Shizuru noticed all the spirit energy around Keiko dissipates Looking down She saw Keiko fist tighten in to a ball.
"Only Yusuke." Shizuru told them shaking her head. (Yusuke doesn't hear too busy slapping Keiko.)
"YOU JERK!" A slap was heard going threw the forest and everything went quiet. "YOU IDOIT YOU!" Shizuru noticed Keiko was covered in sweat and was still shaking. Placing her hands on Keiko's shoulders, Shizuru went down on one knee.
"Are you okay, kid?" She asked stopping Keiko's attack on Yusuke.
"Shizuru?" Keiko asked.
"You're covered in sweat and your still shaking." Kagome told her.
"I think I'm alright." Keiko told them looking down. "I'm just a little shaken up." (Yusuke on the ground with swirly eyes)
"Keiko what happen?" Kurama asked her. "Well you where unconscious?"
"I saw someone called Kikyo, Oniguma and Naraku." She told them.
"A visionary?" Miroku said. "Are you sure there very rare."
"And they're extinct in the present." Botan told them. "There has not been one detected in over hundreds of years."
"It's the only way to explain her visions, and her powers." Kurama told them.
"What's a visionary is it something like a fortune teller?" Kuwabara asked.
"Somewhat." Miroku told him, "They can't tell you the future, but they are able to see events that happen during present time and events that have happen in the past." Shizuru helped Keiko to a nearby tree that she could lead against.
"It's better if we let her rest." Kurama told them helping Keiko as well.
"What did you see?" Miroku asked her. Keiko told them.
-Sometime later-
"So you saw the birth of Naraku." Sango said
"It's the second vision that troubles me." Miroku told them.
"How so, Pervert?" Shizuru asked.
"I have no idea what you're referring to Lady Shizuru." Miroku stated.
"Stop playing innocent." Yusuke told him. (Woke up)
"I can see how it can be bad since we don't know if Naraku and Oniguma are separated for good or if it's something temporary again.
"She could have seen the way they separate before." Inuyasha suggested.
"No, the first time Naraku and Oniguma separated, Oniguma had no face." Sango told him. "And Keiko just told us Naraku and Oniguma looked exactly alike.
"But why hasn't her so called vision powers not sown up till now?" Yusuke asked still rubbing his face.
"Something must have triggered it." Kurama told them, "it could be anything the demon auras to her own doing in some unknown way."
"Hey where's Kuwabara?" Yusuke asked looking around, "Yukina, Hiei even the brats are gone."
"While you were sleeping we sent Kuwabara to fetch some water and fire wood." Shizuru told him, "Yukina and the runts decided to go along for fun."
"And you know Hiei." Botan told him.
"Ohhhhh." Yusuke said, "I wasn't out that long."
"You'd be surprise." Kagome told him. Shizuru felt a chill as a strange energy got close.
"Something's coming!" She warned them.
"DIE!" A female voice screamed which was followed by two arrows; one went towards Kagome and the other towards Inuyasha.
