Rei: Haha, someone LOVES me.
Emi: You're just a great big meanie head, Rei.
Rei: You're just a great big stupid head, Emi.
Emi: --;
Sorry that I didn't update yesterday, my mom's been only letting me online..like...every other day. And school starts next week:D Monday. But I'm glad to be going back. I drew all over my black messenger back with a silver Sharpie...I did the "Inuyasha" thing really well. o-O; It's in silver and gold...And it rivals the size of Kagome's yellow bag...Ah, the smell of school supplies!
Rei: WHAT THE FUCK! Are you fucking crazy!
Emi: ...yes?...I'm looking forward to creating a riot with Angie and beating up Dainna if she says one single thing to me. Gods, I hope Renee's there. That'd be hardcore. And if I have to sit with the preppy bitch chicks...UGGGGH. I can get along with some of the preppy girls, but...Argh.
Rei: Idiot.
Emi: I know. :D


Inuyasha halted at the construction site. Emi's scent was stronger here. He looked up, but...

He saw a figure falling to the ground. An awfully familiar figure. The scent of death reached him, along with the scent of tears and blood. He could feel Kagome shaking on his back, whispering, "Oh my Gods, oh my mother fucking Gods..." over and over. Gently setting her down, he wrapped his arms around her to keep her warm, and from running to the side of her cousin's body. Violent sobs shook her entire body. "Oh my Gods, oh my Gods, oh my Gods!"

Suddenly Kagome broke free of his grip and ran into the area, towards the building, practically vaulting obstacles that stood between herself and her cousin. The miko could now see the heap that was Emi, and she went even faster towards it, stumbling some of the way.

---

Emi felt herself kind of...floating. "Bah! Freaking zero G...argh..." she muttered to herself. She wasn't sure if her eyes were open, it was so dark...A sudden, slightly cheerful, male voice was booming in her ears.

"Well, aren't you the bright one."

She snorted. "So is Hell ready for me?"

"You and I both know you're not going there. So, you get to stay in the World Between Worlds for a little while."

"Fancy name for a black hole." 'Dammit, so motherfucking numb...'

"Basically, but I don't make the names or anything. Otherwise it'd be a lot more entertaining here."

"Figures that I came at a bad time..."

"Yeah, well...You should just be glad you're completely numb right now. Breaking just about every single bone in your body is bound to hurt pretty damn bad."

"It's nice to hear from you, too, Akira. So when the Hell am I getting out of here?"

"Well, your little boyfriend has already called Sesshoumaru and told him to get his fluffy ass down there (I don't think he was too happy about the 'fluffy' thing), and he read your email..."

"Am I going to be revived, though?"

"Like I would know? I'm just here because higher powers thought you might be a tad bored and tear this demension apart, just to do something. Then the Apocalypse would follow, then the universe would be swallowed by this demension, and all that jazz."

"Hey. That sounds like a good idea. Remind me about that when I come back, will ya?"

"Don't think so."

"Meanie...So can I go haunt them now?"

"Thought you'd never ask..."

---

Inuyasha put his head in his hands, biting his lip so hard it drew blood. "Stupid bitch had to go kill herself. Damn her." He looked up after swearing hearing a voice saying, You crazy fucker, I heard that! Nobody was around, besides Kagome. And he knew she wasn't going to be saying that. Who was it then? The hanyou's ears perked up. "I can't believe her. She went and is fucking spying on us now." A voice giggled. About time, you dolt. Thought I was gone forever...can't believe you...Be back in a mo...There was a sound like someone moving away.

He shook his head, a slightly sad smile over his face. "She's good."

Kagome was sobbing a few meters from Emi's body, when a familiar presence entered the area. She looked up, the little eyeliner she was wearing a little smeared, whimpering. Stop that, right now, and go onto your computer. The miko gasped aloud, eyes wide. "Emi...!" A snort, and, No, your imaginary friend from New Guinea, Booboolagoo, who lives with the starving pygmies. "HOLY SHIT!" she yelped, standing up and looking towards the body, then realizing that wasn't where the voice was. A disembodied voice. She was either going crazy or...it was Emi being an idiot. "Why'd you do it?" she whispered. A deep sigh from somewhere to her right, on a heap of metal a few feet from the body. A whispy form was there, a girl with long, straight black hair, pointed ears, but her face was most definately Emi. Get your ass out of the fucking snow and go home. I'll be there. And yes, Inuyasha knows I'm...around. There was a flash of light from the heap of metal and the presence was gone. Kagome shivered. "She's a fucking ghost...damn. She's gonna haunt me now and play tricks." She sighed, wiping her eyes, and walked back towards where Inuyasha's aura was. "Inuyasha?" His torso appeared, leaning around another mass of metal, silver hair over his shoulders. "Neh?" She smiled weakly. "She told me she already had a word with you. We gotta get to my house." He nodded and leaned down as she climbled onto his back, and they were off.

---

Sango inhaled and exhaled deeply to bite back the anger and pain. A few moments ago, a message had popped up on her screen from Emi. Saying what was about to happen, what had been happening, and what Sango needed to do. "Stupid girl!" There was a bit of snapping and crackling from her bedside table, and whe whipped around just to be hit with a pillow by a hardly-even-there girl. When Sango looked back up, she was gone. "That was just plain uncalled for!" Pulling on a coat and boots, she started muttering and made her way to Kagome's house after printing the message.

---

Emi sighed silently. She was at Shippou's house, sitting on the tower of his computer as he stared at the screen, at her message. "Emi..." he had whispered a few moments ago. Rolling her eyes, she moved and stood on his head. Baka, do what I told you or when I get revived, your Linkin Park poster is MINE! The lightbulb on his desk flickered and he blinked. "I'm going, I'm going..." he said as he saw a smoky girl jump from his head to his floor and disappear.

---

Miroku laughed, on the borderline of hysteria, at Emi's message.

Hey, pervert!

You probably already knew what was about to happen, but by the time you get this, I'll be dead. Ain't that the spiff.

And, because of your "devine" powers, you knew you were gonna have to go to my house. Yeah, we'll all be there. It's safe there, well, safe for those of us who can't be touched, at least...

MIROKU, IF YOU DARE PRAY FOR MY ETERNAL PEACE, I WILL FUCKING RIP YOUR LIMBS OFF ONE AT A TIME WITH A RUSTY SPORK, STARTING WITH YOUR DICK. Don't tempt me.

And yeah, I'm probably staring at you right now, waiting for you to do something stupid.

Paranoid much?

-Emi

The ghost girl smirked slightly at a shiver going up his spine, before he turned around and spotted the form of a teenage girl, staring directly at him with an evil smirk, before he closed his eyes and started murmuring what sounded like a prayer. She yelped and jumped up, before using her influence on the human world to throw a stack of books directly at his head. He barely managed to duck, and as she disappeared, he muttered, "Crazy bitch," with a chuckle.

---

At the house, everyone glanced around wearily, as if expecting a smoky looking girl to pop up out of nowhere and drag their spirits to Hell, well, everyone except Kirara, who had been the first to arrive. What they got was close enough - a zapping sound from behind them as the ghostly figure of Emi appeared, smiled at them all rather cheerfully, and floated through the door. The group shrugged at eachother and followed her, though, with the door actually open...

Inside, at the fireplace in the living room, a fire was roaring as Kagome stared into it with a bitter smile. At her side, a wispy figure said something, then disappeared. Kirara sunk down onto the floor and stared into the fire. "Do we have a gameplan?" Kagome shook her head and said, "Can't talk about that until Emi's back, which should be in around an hour." With that, she stood, as did everyone else who had been sitting down. "We all need to go down into the cellar, it's safer there..." Kagome began to walk towards a pair of doors near the kitchen and opened them. Inside was an elevator.

"Uh, Kagome, how deep is this...cellar?" Sango asked, glancing at it in a suspicious manner. The miko shrugged. "I'd say around 100 feet deep. Don't worry about this thing or whatever, Emi doesn't like heights but she said this is okay." She smiled and stepped to the side. "Inuyasha, you know how to use it, so the first group needs to go down, three people can go down at a time." Sango was about to jump in, but Kirara and Shippou beat her to it. At once, her left eye began to twitch. "Son of a bitch." Inuyasha smirked at her less-than-pleased expression, and closed the door.

A few moments later, the elevator came back up, but Kagome said, "Miroku, just press the rectangular button to go close the doors, and the circular one to go down. I have something to do." He nodded, and went inside, then motioned for Sango to follow. She eyed him in suspicion, but strode inside, facing away from him.

The doors closed, but he paused from pressing the circular button for a moment. Instead, he wrapped his arms around Sango's waist and hid his face in her shoulder. Sango jumped and stared at him. "M-Miroku, are you okay?" The monk-in-training shook his head. "No...I'm not sure if Sesshoumaru can revive her...it only works when his sword tells him to, right?" He felt her nod. "What if it doesn't tell him to?"

She sighed deeply and rested her head on top of his head. "We'll see..."

Miroku squeezed Sango tighter in response to her words. She smiled softly. 'At least he's not...' Her thoughts were interrupted by a warm hand snaking it's way towards the inside of her legs. She blinked. 'He wouldn't dare.'

He dared.

She elbowed him in the nose with much force and punched the circular button. "Fucking pervert!"


Rei: No Sango/Miroku stuff, huh?
Emi: I was bored and decided to have some fun with them. Anyways, next chapter will have some really sad Suichi/Emi stuff, and Sesshoumaru, Kagura, Ayame, and Kouga join the crew. :D Also, I bet Angie's gonna want to kill me right now. 'Her character' doesn't act like her one bit. She acts like Cristina. Man, this is all getting confusing. So. To my friends. In this story...
Kirara: Cristina
Sango: Angie
Ayame: Amber
It's so confusing because I named Amber "Sango" and Cristina "Ayame." Of course, there is a "Miroku" and "Shippou"...But I'm not gonna say anything because when school starts, they'll beat me down.

Review response:

Rei: Well...Krysie won't be able to read these until, what, Friday? So I get to guess at what she'd say.
Krysie-but-not-really: O-O You killed Emi! What the hell...! Emi, why'd you kill Emi? Wait..that sounded weird...But still. Fluffy better bring her back!
Emi: Yes, I killed Emi. No, not Hell. I killed her because it was good for the plot. And I kinda wanted to see what people would say. Yeah, that sounded weird. And Fluffy MIGHT NOT bring her back, because I'm terribly evil that way.

tasha: I already IMed you and told you why, but just so I don't get a whole bunch of reviews with what you said...

This story is in MODERN TIMES. If Inuyasha was like he is in the anime, well, he'd be on death row at the moment. And he's a punk because...well...that's more in character than having him being a prep, or at least I think so...I'd go into a more extensive thing about this, but I don't really want to right now.

Kagome M.K: Soon enough?

LovelyAngel1620: I had to have her do that for some angst. I'm bad like that. And, I disagree about R-
Rei:D! I FEEL THE LOVE!
Emi: It was one reviewer.
Rei: ..all you need is love...
Emi: Shut up you crazy fucker.

Snoochie: Heh, I updated soon-ish.
