What Happened

Shinu awoke in a room that she didn't know. The room was quit large the ceiling was whitish bluish and the walls were a dark blue color with dogs for a border (white big dogs like demon dogs in a cute way). The bed was a queen size and there were blue sheets as well. There were drawers and a closet on the far left of the room by the door. On the far right of the room there was another door leading to the bathroom, well so Shinu guessed. It was a really cozy room. "Ow. Why does my head hurt? Oh yeah. Now I remember. Ah. Shinta! Where are you? Shoot. They must have taken her to a separate room. Sango, I hope your okay," she said in a whisper looking down in her lap. She just lied back down since there wasn't anything else to do. Plus her head was killing her.

Just as she lied down the door swung open. She sat up quickly, a little too quickly for her head. She started to see spots, but she got her vision back after a while. "Hey, your up. That's good. How are you?" Kagome asked, but Shinu just glared at her with her cold golden eyes. " It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you. I promise, I just want to help, see." Kagome held a tray of soup with painkillers and water out in front so Shinu could see it. Shinu's eyes softened just a little and nodded for her to come in. Kagome entered the room slowly and set the tray down on the table beside the bed. "Can I check that wound in the back of your head?" Kagome asked worriedly. Shinu just nodded and turned around so Kagome could see the wound. "Well, it's not that bad. You don't seem to have a concussion or any brain damage. And it seems to be healing all right. You know, your quite lucky, most of the time Sesshomaru hits really hard. (She paused for a second) I can leave you alone, if you want. I know you must have a lot on your mind." Kagome requested softly. Shinu shook her head slowly so not to bring back her head ache and said with a small smile yet still cautious voice, "No it's okay. You can stay if you want. It would be nice to talk to somebody for once." Kagome just smiled and grabbed a seat for her to sit on and put it by the bed and started talking.

About an hour later Kagome came down, but before she went to her bedroom, she went to check on Sango. Kagome inched the door open just a little bit, just to take a small peek, but as soon as she did, she swung the door open and ran in. Sango was restless, tossing and turning and sweating like she was in pain, the sheets were all tangled all around her. "KESA! Get in here now!" screamed Kagome. She ran to Sango's side and tried to untangle the poor girl as best she could.

Kesa came as soon as she could even with demon speed. She slid to a stop at the door and ran in awaiting Kagome's orders. "Kesa. Hold her down," said Kagome while trying to look over Sango to see what was wrong with her, but every time she got close a foot or an arm was sent her way. Kesa got pieces of rope and tied down Sango's arms and legs down on the bedposts, while Kagome injected a liquid to paralyze her body to make sure she wouldn't hurt herself. " Kesa, go down stairs and get cold water, a towel and some aspirin. Hurry. We gotta get this fever down as soon as possible, if not well…." she left that thought hanging while Kesa got the stuff. Kesa got the things that were needed and handed them to Kagome. Kagome told her what to do and went to go get Shinu out to see if she could help with her sister.

"What happened to her!" Shinu yelled as soon as Kagome opened the door. "How did you know?" asked Kagome. " I know when something's wrong with Shinta. So what happened?" Shinu asked getting worried. The vibe she was getting from Shinta was not a good one. " Well I don't know actually. I just went to check on her, but when I did, she was tossing and turning like she was in pain." Shinu looked up for just a second, she had just realized something. "Kagome, what moon is it tonight?" Shinu asked hoping she was wrong.

"It's the full moon tonight why do you …". But before Kagome could finish her sentence, Shinu was running out of the door and into Shinta's room. "What are you doing out of your room!" Kesa yelled at her. Shinu didn't answer, all she did was walk to Shinta's side. She knelt down slowly and pushed away her bangs that were clinging to her sisters sweaty forehead.

Kagome came in and was just about to ask what was the matter with Shinta, but Kesa got to her first. "I asked a question. What are you doing out of your room and what's wrong with Shinta anyways?" Shinu didn't say anything at first but she began with "what did you do to Shinta? Why isn't she moving?" "I had put her into a paralyzed state since she was moving around too much and reopening her wounds. But anyway can you please answer Kesa's questions before she blows a fuse or something" Kagome had said. She looked towards Kesa and saw her face red, a vein even appeared on her forehead. "Alright, but first you have to help me get Shinta outside before she transforms. We need to get her away from here or else. Then I'll answer all of your questions," she said softly so she wouldn't hurt her and Kesa's ears with all the yelling. (Demons have very sensitive hearing; I just wanted to remind you). Kesa was about to argue back but decided not too because if they did they wouldn't get their answers. So Kagome untied Shinta's wrists while Kesa untied Shinta's legs and together they carried her out, but Shinu stayed back just for a few minutes.

They finally got her outside and put her down on the ground about 12 feet away from the house. "So are we going to get our answers now or are we just gonna let you grab her and run" Kesa was saying threw her grinding teeth since she was so angry because she usually doesn't like to follow orders she already had a vein popping out. "Don't worry you'll get your answers and I won't run off with her, especially during the night of the full moon. I just asked you to help me get her out of that house so she wouldn't go and destroy it. Any way about your answers, I don't like to repeat myself so we are just going to wait till the boys get her ok?" she said with a bored tone and kept looking at the sun, and watched it go down.

"How do the boys know we are out here anyway?" Kagome asked looking quite confused. "Oh they know. I stayed back for a few minutes. 4, 3, 2, 1, 0" said Shinu. Just when she finished speaking the boys came out looking sopping wet. Kagome and Kesa were trying so hard not to laugh their heads off at the sight of Sesshomaru, Inu-Yasha and Miroku looking like wet dogs and rats. "Well it's nice to see you out here and about time, it's almost sunset," said a bored Shinu. She was still looking at the sun, but bothered to spare a glance at the guys. "What the hell were you doing anyway. If I would like to ask," asked a 'trying not to laugh' Kesa. "Well I had to get them back for knocking me unconscious some how, especially the Lord over there. I don't really know anyone's name for now but anyway. I think the wet dogs here would like to dry off and I think you want some answers from me," said Shinu in a 'matter of fact tone'. The boys (except Miroku) just growled at her and shook them self's dry. That was all the girls could take, they busted out laughing. Sesshomaru looked like one giant fur ball with all his hairs sticking out in all directions and Inu-Yasha looked almost the same like Sesshomaru, but his was a bit smaller and more fluffier. Miroku had just stayed dripping wet.

"Anyway miss if you don't mind telling us the story we all would be greatly obliged. Oh and by the way I'm Kagome, that's Kesa 'Kesa nodded towards her', that's Inu-Yasha 'he just growled', that's Sesshomaru 'he nodded his head (since he is more polite than Inu-Yasha) and that's Miroku" she said pointing to each one. Miroku stepped in front of Shinu and grabbed her hand and asked, "Will you bare my child?" Shinu looked totally grossed out at him and together Shinu, Kesa and Kagome knocked him over the head screaming pervert or hentai. (They mean the same thing).

Shinu recollected her self and introduced them. "I'm Shinu and that's san opps I mean Shinta if you couldn't remember from before. Now anyway for the answers I don't really recall your questions so if you could ask them one by one then I would be most obliged" she had said thinking 'boy I almost said Shinta's true name. Oh wells. But really, this isn't good I'm getting way too used to them'. Kagome was the first one to ask a question "who do you work for and why did your boss want Sesshomaru assassinated". "That was a very good question, but I think I should start with the story first then if we have time then I can answer your questions, but only if Shinta gets through tonight, got it?" Shinu asked and everyone nodded in agreement.

"Ok the story starts way back, a long, long, long time ago, way back where the wolfs used to own the planet. There was a war going on at that time between the wolves and the humans, sorcerer and other creatures that thought the wolves didn't have the right to rule. Even though the wolves always ruled with a kind heart. 'Inu-Yasha snorted and everyone glared at him' look Inu-Yasha you might be thinking that wolves never could rule with a kind heart right or anything else, but then again that's how they ruled and that's why the humans and the other kind didn't see that the wolves were fit to rule, but I personally would have peace instead of the life we live now with all these demons lose and killing more things then wolves had. (Everyone slightly nodded at that). Anyway one day while every one was battling, an old sorcerer came through the gates and went up to the leader of the wolves, his name was Lord Sagara or his full name was Lord Suzo Sagara. The sorcerer held his wand out and threatened the lord if he did not give up the battle and surrender, he would kill/curse all of his kind. The king was too filled with honor to just give up without a fight so he declined the offer. They charged at each other and they battled for only a few minutes until the sorcerer fell to his knees, being the kind lord that he was, the lord had let the old man go, but that is where he made his most fatal mistake.

When the king had moved out of his way to let him go, the sorcerer chanted a spell and flew some powder on the lord. The lord recognized it a second too late. The lord threw his sword into the sorcerer's gut and killed him off. As sorcerer died, he said a few words of wisdom. He had said "every full moon from this moment on, will give your demon blood an increase and you will lose control and destroy every thing in your path. This curse will never go away until that person finds a mate and/or controls the blood him or herself until then you and all of your wolf kind will change every full moon and rampage your own homes. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA …" his plan was to kill everything and everyone in the wolf line blood, but his plan had also failed as well because not only did the wolves destroy their home but also the humans as well. It became the time known as The Great Curse. So now every full moon, san opps Shinta transforms into her larger wolf form and destroys the hillside. She goes there every full moon so she wouldn't be able to destroy our place" she finally ended her sad story.

Everyone was speech less, even Inu-Yasha. Miroku was the first one to recover though and asked "why don't you transform anymore Shinu-san". Everyone was asking themselves that as well in their minds. "I don't transform anymore because I can control it now, even though it took several years with the help of Shinta, but you see I don't have the royal blood as Shinta does. So it doesn't have that strong of effect on me. 'Everyone looked shocked, even Sesshomaru'. 'sigh' Her last name is…" (on to the Next chapter -)
