Chapter #11 ^(^_^)^
Sorry for the wait but I had a lot to do in the past month: A lot of shopping for my cousins in the Phillipines, I starred in a play for a school "The Odd Couple" (female version) and plus I just ended two of my others stories. I had boyfriend troubles and I STILL NEED TO BUY MY MOM A BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!!! -_-
This Chapter: Souta is by Kagome's bed with Inuyasha laying sick in it. As he watches him he see's the pain twist in his face and how his fists ball with every yell of pain. Suddenly Souta is shocked by a certain change in Inuyasha's appearance; what could it be? We go back to the fights within Inu's head and a lot of shocking secrets are revealed, will Inuyasha break down or what? We check on Kikyo and what she's been doing this whole time... Kaede? What are you doing there? NARAKU!? Look out Kaede! Shippo is still on the run when he runs into an old friend who is it?
REVIEWERS:
jammies2000: Someone's going to fall in love but I can't tell you who. The other will be oblivious or just deny them. H3LL NO I'm not going to make Kagome and Inuyasha enemies; he's fighting his demon side for her (What's Best For HER) *wink wink* *nudge nudge* and Kagome might kill Kikyo for HIM!
Sessha Kenshin: So you would really kill me ;.;!!
Destiny: *zips up lips*

Unexpected Suprises
"Mom, is it okay if I watch Inuyasha now? You look like you could use some sleep?" Souta asked as he peeked his head into the door followed by Buyo on his shoulder.
Mrs. Higurashi lifted her sleepy eyes and yawned, "Sure Souta, honey. If you think something's wrong don't be afraid to get me." She looked at Kagome's alarm clock and sighed, "6:00 o'clock, oh dear."
"Well, alright," she got up out of the desk chair and walked out of the door. "Remember, do-,"
"Don't be afraid to call you if something is wrong. I know! I know!" Souta finished.
Mrs. Higurashi smiled and thought, 'my little boy is growing into a responsible young man.' "Goodnight honey," with that she exited.
Souta walked over to Kagome's closet and pulled out a spare pillow and set it besides her bed. He sat himself down and Buyo flew into his lap.
"I wonder what's wrong with Inuyasha. Kagome told Mom and Grandpa and just told me that he was really sick, and may be dying. Then she left, hasn't came back giving us any news."
Buyo meowed and jumped on top of Inuyasha's stomach.
Souta's eyes widened, "No Buyo, get off him!"
Inuyasha stopped moving and put a hand on Buyo's back and started to stroke his fur. Buyo purred and turned over so he could pet his stomach.
Souta was on his knee's crawling closer to Inuyasha. "Looks like Inuyasha is doing better... AHH!" He watched as Inuyasha raised his claws and prepared to strike an unaware Buyo.
"Buyo!!!" Souta quickly dragged the heavy cat off Inuyasha before the swipe hit him.
"Die!" Inuyasha growed through clenched teeth. He tenced up and balled his fists so tight blood started to flow from his palms.
"Oh, no," he gasped as the blood hit Kagome's sheets. He grabbed the first aid kit on Kagome's dresser and pulled out a long bandage and tape. When Inuyasha stopped moving Souta grabbed each hand and slowly and gentally cleaned and dressed it. Sweat dropped from his face each time he saw Inuyasha twitch.
"Phew... hey Buyo?" Souta looked around again for Buyo and he was laying next to Inuyasha's face and gentally licking it; Inuyasha didn't seem to mind.
Souta turned to the opened window and walked it. Before he closed it he watched as the sun disappeared behind the tall buildings of Tokyo. He looked up at the sky for the moon but it was no where in sight. "It's gonna be dark tonight."
"No..." Inuyasha whispered and Souta turned to him. "WHOA!!!" He was leaned on the bed and watched as Inuyasha's dog ears slid down to normal human ear, and how his hair turned pitch black. His claws then turned into finger nails.
Buyo was suprised by this also and jumped into Souta's lap. He meowed loudly and lightly scratched Souta's pajama pants.
"This is totally weird. I didn't know Inuyasha could transform into a human if he wanted. Or is it something else?" Souta stared hard at Inuyasha's face and tried to put all the pieces together in his mind. While all the pieces in Inuyasha's mind were falling apart.
***
"Damnit," Inuyasha growed as his claws shrank to nails.
Demon Inuyasha smirked and started to laugh, "Hahahahah, looks like I'll be killing a pathetic human now."
Inuyasha stood up and cracked his knuckles, "You'll be turning human too, you know. You are just like me. You'll be losing your powers!"
"Then why haven't I changed yet? I am not a real being you know. I'm just a spirit created by Kikyo, that came from the essence of Tetsusaiga. The weapon that protects you will destroy you. Isn't it grand?!" Demon Inuyasha's sinister laugh drove Inuyasha in a pit of rage towards Naraku.
"That's bastard placed a spell on my Tetsusaiga so I couldn't supress my demon blood and when he stole the power to keeping my demon blood at bay he goes and gives it to Kikyo, making her cast a spell to allow the most evil part of me live and destroy me... Damn him!"
"There's a fatal flaw in your statement. Naraku didn't make Kikyo create me, she did it with her own will."
"What?"
"Didn't I tell you this; or are you too stuborn to face the facts? Kikyo lives on because she hates you. She believed, when she died, that you were the one who caused her premature demise. She wishes to die with you; hell is both your fates."
"I wont believe it. Kikyo, would never use Naraku's help to destroy me! She- she wishes for Naraku's death before mine!" Inuyasha growled.
Demon Inuyasha's expression turned from pure pleasure to extreme anger. "You fool! Kikyo could care less about Naraku when your life is easier to destroy. She will only kill Naraku to get the Shikon Jewel. After I kill you, I will be awakened in your body..." he smiled and licked his claws, "And if I can remember, your body is with Kagome's family? Their blood on my claws will bring me deep pleasure."
Inuyasha erased the facts about Kikyo from his mind and growled loudly at what his other half had said, "I will never let you hurt Kagome's family, nor Kagome!" Inuyasha ran with all his human speed and balled his fist.
"After I kill Kikyo I will destroy Kagome! I will live on forever!" As Inuyasha approached him, Demon Inuyasha outstretched his claws.
"Damn you!" Inuyasha drew back his fist and brought it toward his demon half.
"Hah!" Demon Inuyasha scratched Inuyasha's face and gabbed his throat. His grip was tight but not yet life threatening. He whispered into his ear, "now you listen to all the secrets that have been building around you..."
"Kikyo knew that Naraku had given her the essence and she created the spell regardless. What does that tell you? She wants you to die and when I come to her she will drag me to Hell. But I wont let that happen I'll give her to Naraku and have him be rid of her... Hah, maybe l'll let the part of Onigumo that lays deep in Naraku have her. Nothing but torture for her. How could I have forgotten... Kagome has left you to go kill Kikyo, how could she do that when she knows you love her? Maybe it's because she loves you too much and wants to have you all to herself. So when I get out of your mind and take control of your body I'll play with her emotions and drive her to hysteria. HAHAHAHA!!!"
"NO, all of it, you're lieing. Why should I believe you!" Inuyasha was driving his nails as hard as he could into his Half's skin.
"I wonder why these two pathetic human girls fell in love with you?" He said with disgust. "You are a weak excuse for a demon and a human. You should just leave them to me. I'll give them something to scream for you about."
"NOOOOOOO!" Inuyasha brought down his arm as hard as he could among Demon Inuysha's and the bone within it broke.
"Ahhhh!" Demon Inuyasha dropped him and gripped tight to his arm, poping the bone back in place. His arm began to swell and his screaming rang throughout.
Inuyasha began to attack, punching kicking, scratching with his nails and even biting. He bit down on Demon Inuyasha's collar bone and gave him a head butt. Inuyasha watched as his demon side fell into unconsciousness and the blackness around him turned to white. Before he knew it he was looking at the roof of Kagome's room.
"Whoa, Inuyasha?" Souta said as he saw Inuyasha's brown eyes stare at him.
"Yhaa!" Inuyasha screamed in pain as the injuries from the battle in his mind emerged upon his skin.
"Yikes!" Souta grabbed the first aid kit and threw it to Inuyasha, "Try to bandage yourself, I'll call Mom!" Souta ran out of the room and the padding of his feet hit the stairs to his Mom's room.
Inuyasha threw the first aid kit beside him and opened it. He stopped as he caught the smell of Kagome's scent. He forgot all about his injuries and thought about Kagome and his journeys so far...
How he saved her from the Thunder Brothers. The way she cried for him when they were facing the Spider-Head Demons. She ignored his order to stay in her era when they had just finished fighting Sesshoumaru who'd joined forces with Naraku. He was grateful how Kagome stopped him from being dragged into Hell with Kikyo. Even when she was captured by Kouga and he declared his love for her, she still remained with Inuyasha. How could he forget how when he first turned demon the only way for him to return to normal was her "sit" command. What really had him the most was the way she reacted when he had set his mind to stay with Kikyo and she wished to stay with him, forever. All the memories were dancing in his head until Mrs. Higurashi, her father and Souta all returned with shocking looks on their faces.
"Inuyasha dear!" Mrs. Higurashi rushed over and removed his shirt seeing all the blood wounds on his chest and stomach. She looked over at her father and said, "Dad, go get me some hot water and rags please, and hurry!"
He left the room and Souta sat next to his mother who was concentrating on stopping Inuyasha's heavy blood flow.
"Kagome..." Inuyasha whispered as he thought about her out in the Fuedal Era trying to stop Kikyo to save himself.
"Hey, Inuyasha... you're worried about my sister aren't you?" Souta asked with a sad expression on his face.
"Well, tssss-," Inuyasha felt the pain of the alcohol upon his wounds that Mrs. Higurashi was applying.
"Oh, Inuyasha, how did you get all these wounds? You were laying in bed the whole time?" Mrs. Higurashi questioned to herself, not making eye contact.
"Where is Kagome?" Inuyasha asked. "Exactly?" he added.
Souta looked at his Mom who was well aware of the question but had no responce, "My sis, went down the well again to go find the cure to your illness. It was strange, she seemed pretty upset and focused on something a the same time. I've never seen her like that before."
"Souta, go help Grandpa with the water and rags please," Mrs. Higurashi ordered.
"Okay, Mom," Souta had a whine in his voice, when he exited thats the time Mrs. Higurashi spoke.
"Who is Kikyo?" She asked.
Inuyasha widened his eyes and then they drooped back down. "She's someone I used the love 500 years ago in this time 50 in mine."
"I see," her voice was calm. "I heard Kagome talking about it the day you ended up sick. How this woman named Kikyo did whatever she did to you and how Kagome wanted to find her and kill her. I never expected to hear those words to come out of my daughters mouth."
"I don't know what to say-."
"How can you not know what to say?" Mrs. Higurashi stopped and looked up at his distant eyes. "My daughter is as sweet as they come and for a mother to hear those words- it broke my heart. I didn't want to let her go but it's her choice. You tell me what's going on. I need to know."
"Kikyo has casted a spell on me that had made my demon side awake inside my body and try to kill the sane side of me. If it wins I'll die and it will wake and destroy everyone within his path. I have him down now, that is why I am able to wake but he'll wake sometime soon. I have to get to Kagome."
"You're not going anywhere with these injuries... Now tell me, where did your cute little doggy ears go?" Mrs. Higurashi had her sweet smile back on her face.
"Uhh-."
"Oh great the water is here!" Mrs. Higurashi grabbed the bucket of water and a rag from Grandpa and started to clean Inuyasha's wounds. It didn't take long to dress them when the cuts weren't as bad as everyone thought they were. Inuyasha had guessed that his half demon side helped him heal when he was fighting.
After his wounds were dressed everyone left him alone. Inuyasha could feel the power of the spell taking affect again. His demon blood was moving a little faster in his body.
"I must distance myself from here, or I'll be putting Kagome's family in danger." Inuyasha weakly moved to the window and silently climbed down from Kagome's window.
"Kagome, I'm coming for you, but first I have to see Kaede, she must know how to reverse the spell."
When he reached the well house and stood at the rim of the well. His demon side pulled him back into his mind, and his body fell in. Inuyasha stared hard at his demon side and saw how his arm was fully healed; along with his other injuries.
"You thought you could get away from me, huh? Wrong!" Demon Inuyasha, with great speed reached over and grabbed Inuyasha's neck squeezing as hard as he could.
"Ka-gome..." he whispered.
Little rabbits that were by the Bone Eaters well in the Fuedal Era ran away as a form jumped out of the well. It looked left of him and sniffed and looked right of him and sniffed and his glare stayed to the right.
Demon Inuyasha cracked his knuckes and said, "Suprise."
^.~
Kikyo wondered why the red aura of the spell she created turned white for a while but her fears quelled when it turned red again but a very bright red. Yet she did not know what that meant.
"Could Inuyasha be dead? No, I would have passed on already. Something strange has happened, what could it be?" Kikyo walked out of the small temple and looked at the night sky. There was no moon above her.
"No wonder it has been very dark. Plus I feel Naraku about; what could he be planning?" Kikyo turned to go back in the temple when she heard a rustle in the bushes behind her. She quickly turned and yelled out, "who goes?!"
Riding on a horse was an old Kaede with her bow and quiver full of arrows. She looked at her elder sister and said, "Kikyo, yee must stop this madness at once."
Kikyo smirked and said, "Hello, my younger sister Kaede, what ails you that allows me to be comfronted with your presence?"
"I know what yee have been up to Kikyo, and I do not approve of it!" Kaede said as she hopped down from her horse. She walked a few steps in front of Kikyo and said, "Yee have used our mothers sacred spell for evil, yee are no better than Naraku!"
"How dare you speak to your older sister in such a way Kaede!" Kikyo pushed her sister down and stood over her. "You shall not stop me from killing Inuyasha; his life is mine to have!" Kikyo kicked Kaede and turned to the temple.
"Kikyo no!" Kaede grabbed an arrow from her quiver and readied it in her bow, aimed at Kikyo's back.
Kikyo turned with an empty expression. "You would kill your own sister, Kaede?"
Kaede slowly got up and winced in pain, "the sister I knew, would never have treated me as such. Yee are nothing but earth and bones filled with hatred." Kaede shot her arrow but before it hit Kikyo, a gust of wind knocked it off course.
"Who?" Kaede looked and saw Kagura, Kanna and Kohaku standing beside her.
Kagura stepped up and said, "Now, now, we can't have you ruining Naraku's plan, this one must be carried out perfectly. Be gone! Dance of Dragon!" Wind tornado's surrounded Kaede and blew her out of the area.
Kikyo turned sharply to them and said, "who ordered you to attack my sister?!"
Kagura looked suprised, "we just witnessed how you abused your younger sister. It seemed as though you hated her. She was old anyway. The old die soon enough."
Kikyo stared at each of them and said, "I know Naraku is here, tell him to come forth."
"Sharp as ever aren't we Kikyo?" Naraku appeared wearing his baboon pelt.
"Why have you come?"
"To tell you that Inuyasha is here," Naraku smirked.
"You are lieing, Inuyasha can't be here; my spell is still in the process of destroying him," Kikyo was not falling for it.
"Inuyasha, I believe that his human self is dead, but his demon self is still alive," Naraku spoke with an evil grin on his face.
"Explain youself."
Naraku turned to Kanna who held out her mirror, within it was the image of Demon Inuyasha terrorizing Kaede's village. "Inuyasha's demon blood was too strong to die along with his human blood. It had a will of its own and it's will was to live and kill those who stepped in his path. You have yet to destroy Inuyasha."
Kikyo was shocked and a bit angered by this but just turned and walked into the temple, when she returned she had her bow and quiver of arrows.
She started at them all and said, "why have you told me this, you could finish him off yourself Naraku."
Naraku chuckled and said, "I do not wish to kill Inuyasha, I only wish to have that human girl named Kagome who has some of the Shikon shards I desire."
"Still selfish aren't you Naraku? I take it that you have nearly completed the jewel?" Kikyo asked with a cocked eyebrow.
"That is none of your concern as of now Kikyo, your task is to destroy Inuyasha, he is on his way here," the miasma surrounded them all and once it cleared so did they.
Kikyo looked out beyond her and smiled, "Come Inuyasha, we shall embrace death together. Today is that fateful day."

"I have to find Kagome! She needs to be warned." Shippo had been running for hours using his little nose to sniff through scents to find Kagome. He had found a pretty good scent when he reached her urine or was it?
"Ohhh-," Shippo heard a moan in front of him.
With fear and a little bit of courge he said, "who's there?"
"Aye, Ship-po is that yee?" A familiar voice recognized his.
Shippo cleared some one the debree on the form and saw it was Kaede, "Granny Kaede!!!" Shippo removed more of the debree and then went to the side of her face. "Granny Kaede, are you okay? What happened?"
"I went..." she coughed twice and then continued, "Kikyo had cast the spell upon Inuyasha. I went to find her and Kagura, the wind sorccerous, attacked me."
"You shouldn't have went alone!" Shippo cried.
"Only I have the power to quell my sister, Kikyo. She is no longer how she was 50 years ago."
"I have very bad news. Miroku, Sango, and Kouga have been turned into zombies by Naraku. He sent them to go find Kagome and bring her to him, that's why I'm here I found her scent and it led me here."
"That was Kikyo's, Kagome is not here; I have a feeling Kagome is lost somewhere."
Shippo looked around and saw no one to help him get Kaede some help, "How am I too get you out of here Granny?"
Kaede sighed and said, "first I have to tell yee the story I overheard from Naraku." Kaede told all she heard and Shippo listened to every word and was shocked all the same.
"We have to find Kagome first. Wait, what about Inuyasha, he's headed here, should we wait for him? No, we can't he's a demon now. Then we have to find Kagome, but then we'll run into Miroku, Sango, and Kouga and they are formidable enough. Ahh, what should we do first?"
"Find Kagome."
~*~
That's it for this chapter, I know it's real short but I promise to make the next chapter really long since as u can see I left a alot of cliffhangers in this chapter.
Next chapter: Is sane Inuyasha still alive or, is he dead? I never said if he was or wasn't Hmmmm, makes u think: How will that affect Demon Inuyasha while he's in Fuedal Japan trying to destroy everyone in sight until he finds Kikyo? We check up with Kagome and Sesshoumaru and a short scene between the two occur and we see sparkles *blows them away* but they quickly leave after possessed Miroku, Sango, and Kouga come along. WATCH OUT KAGOME! Will Sessy save her or throw her out to the wolves, heh heh get it? Wolves=Kouga heh heh (I crack myself up sometimes, J/K!!!!). I can't really think of what else but I'll let you know in the notes b4 the next chapter, PEACE!

Souta looked at his Mom who was well aware of the question but had no responce, "My sis, went down the well again to go find the cure to your illness. It was strange, she seemed pretty upset and focused on something a the same time. I've never seen her like that before."
"Souta, go help Grandpa with the water and rags please," Mrs. Higurashi ordered.
"Okay, Mom," Souta had a whine in his voice, when he exited thats the time Mrs. Higurashi spoke.
"Who is Kikyo?" She asked.
Inuyasha widened his eyes and then they drooped back down. "She's someone I used the love 500 years ago in this time 50 in mine."
"I see," her voice was calm. "I heard Kagome talking about it the day you ended up sick. How this woman named Kikyo did whatever she did to you and how Kagome wanted to find her and kill her. I never expected to hear those words to come out of my daughters mouth."
"I don't know what to say-."
"How can you not know what to say?" Mrs. Higurashi stopped and looked up at his distant eyes. "My daughter is as sweet as they come and for a mother to hear those words- it broke my heart. I didn't want to let her go but it's her choice. You tell me what's going on. I need to know."
"Kikyo has casted a spell on me that had made my demon side awake inside my body and try to kill the sane side of me. If it wins I'll die and it will wake and destroy everyone within his path. I have him down now, that is why I am able to wake but he'll wake sometime soon. I have to get to Kagome."
"You're not going anywhere with these injuries... Now tell me, where did your cute little doggy ears go?" Mrs. Higurashi had her sweet smile back on her face.
"Uhh-."
"Oh great the water is here!" Mrs. Higurashi grabbed the bucket of water and a rag from Grandpa and started to clean Inuyasha's wounds. It didn't take long to dress them when the cuts weren't as bad as everyone thought they were. Inuyasha had guessed that his half demon side helped him heal when he was fighting.
After his wounds were dressed everyone left him alone. Inuyasha could feel the power of the spell taking affect again. His demon blood was moving a little faster in his body.
"I must distance myself from here, or I'll be putting Kagome's family in danger." Inuyasha weakly moved to the window and silently climbed down from Kagome's window.
"Kagome, I'm coming for you, but first I have to see Kaede, she must know how to reverse the spell."
When he reached the well house and stood at the rim of the well. His demon side pulled him back into his mind, and his body fell in. Inuyasha stared hard at his demon side and saw how his arm was fully healed; along with his other injuries.
"You thought you could get away from me, huh? Wrong!" Demon Inuyasha, with great speed reached over and grabbed Inuyasha's neck squeezing as hard as he could.
"Ka-gome..." he whispered.
Little rabbits that were by the Bone Eaters well in the Fuedal Era ran away as a form jumped out of the well. It looked left of him and sniffed and looked right of him and sniffed and his glare stayed to the right.
Demon Inuyasha cracked his knuckes and said, "Suprise."
^.~
Kikyo wondered why the red aura of the spell she created turned white for a while but her fears quelled when it turned red again but a very bright red. Yet she did not know what that meant.
"Could Inuyasha be dead? No, I would have passed on already. Something strange has happened, what could it be?" Kikyo walked out of the small temple and looked at the night sky. There was no moon above her.
"No wonder it has been very dark. Plus I feel Naraku about; what could he be planning?" Kikyo turned to go back in the temple when she heard a rustle in the bushes behind her. She quickly turned and yelled out, "who goes?!"
Riding on a horse was an old Kaede with her bow and quiver full of arrows. She looked at her elder sister and said, "Kikyo, yee must stop this madness at once."
Kikyo smirked and said, "Hello, my younger sister Kaede, what ails you that allows me to be comfronted with your presence?"
"I know what yee have been up to Kikyo, and I do not approve of it!" Kaede said as she hopped down from her horse. She walked a few steps in front of Kikyo and said, "Yee have used our mothers sacred spell for evil, yee are no better than Naraku!"
"How dare you speak to your older sister in such a way Kaede!" Kikyo pushed her sister down and stood over her. "You shall not stop me from killing Inuyasha; his life is mine to have!" Kikyo kicked Kaede and turned to the temple.
"Kikyo no!" Kaede grabbed an arrow from her quiver and readied it in her bow, aimed at Kikyo's back.
Kikyo turned with an empty expression. "You would kill your own sister, Kaede?"
Kaede slowly got up and winced in pain, "the sister I knew, would never have treated me as such. Yee are nothing but earth and bones filled with hatred." Kaede shot her arrow but before it hit Kikyo, a gust of wind knocked it off course.
"Who?" Kaede looked and saw Kagura, Kanna and Kohaku standing beside her.
Kagura stepped up and said, "Now, now, we can't have you ruining Naraku's plan, this one must be carried out perfectly. Be gone! Dance of Dragon!" Wind tornado's surrounded Kaede and blew her out of the area.
Kikyo turned sharply to them and said, "who ordered you to attack my sister?!"
Kagura looked suprised, "we just witnessed how you abused your younger sister. It seemed as though you hated her. She was old anyway. The old die soon enough."
Kikyo stared at each of them and said, "I know Naraku is here, tell him to come forth."
"Sharp as ever aren't we Kikyo?" Naraku appeared wearing his baboon pelt.
"Why have you come?"
"To tell you that Inuyasha is here," Naraku smirked.
"You are lieing, Inuyasha can't be here; my spell is still in the process of destroying him," Kikyo was not falling for it.
"Inuyasha, I believe that his human self is dead, but his demon self is still alive," Naraku spoke with an evil grin on his face.
"Explain youself."
Naraku turned to Kanna who held out her mirror, within it was the image of Demon Inuyasha terrorizing Kaede's village. "Inuyasha's demon blood was too strong to die along with his human blood. It had a will of its own and it's will was to live and kill those who stepped in his path. You have yet to destroy Inuyasha."
Kikyo was shocked and a bit angered by this but just turned and walked into the temple, when she returned she had her bow and quiver of arrows.
She started at them all and said, "why have you told me this, you could finish him off yourself Naraku."
Naraku chuckled and said, "I do not wish to kill Inuyasha, I only wish to have that human girl named Kagome who has some of the Shikon shards I desire."
"Still selfish aren't you Naraku? I take it that you have nearly completed the jewel?" Kikyo asked with a cocked eyebrow.
"That is none of your concern as of now Kikyo, your task is to destroy Inuyasha, he is on his way here," the miasma surrounded them all and once it cleared so did they.
Kikyo looked out beyond her and smiled, "Come Inuyasha, we shall embrace death together. Today is that fateful day."

"I have to find Kagome! She needs to be warned." Shippo had been running for hours using his little nose to sniff through scents to find Kagome. He had found a pretty good scent when he reached her urine or was it?
"Ohhh-," Shippo heard a moan in front of him.
With fear and a little bit of courge he said, "who's there?"
"Aye, Ship-po is that yee?" A familiar voice recognized his.
Shippo cleared some one the debree on the form and saw it was Kaede, "Granny Kaede!!!" Shippo removed more of the debree and then went to the side of her face. "Granny Kaede, are you okay? What happened?"
"I went..." she coughed twice and then continued, "Kikyo had cast the spell upon Inuyasha. I went to find her and Kagura, the wind sorccerous, attacked me."
"You shouldn't have went alone!" Shippo cried.
"Only I have the power to quell my sister, Kikyo. She is no longer how she was 50 years ago."
"I have very bad news. Miroku, Sango, and Kouga have been turned into zombies by Naraku. He sent them to go find Kagome and bring her to him, that's why I'm here I found her scent and it led me here."
"That was Kikyo's, Kagome is not here; I have a feeling Kagome is lost somewhere."
Shippo looked around and saw no one to help him get Kaede some help, "How am I too get you out of here Granny?"
Kaede sighed and said, "first I have to tell yee the story I overheard from Naraku." Kaede told all she heard and Shippo listened to every word and was shocked all the same.
"We have to find Kagome first. Wait, what about Inuyasha, he's headed here, should we wait for him? No, we can't he's a demon now. Then we have to find Kagome, but then we'll run into Miroku, Sango, and Kouga and they are formidable enough. Ahh, what should we do first?"
"Find Kagome."
~*~
That's it for this chapter, I know it's real short but I promise to make the next chapter really long since as u can see I left a alot of cliffhangers in this chapter.
Next chapter: Is sane Inuyasha still alive or, is he dead? I never said if he was or wasn't Hmmmm, makes u think: How will that affect Demon Inuyasha while he's in Fuedal Japan trying to destroy everyone in sight until he finds Kikyo? We check up with Kagome and Sesshoumaru and a short scene between the two occur and we see sparkles *blows them away* but they quickly leave after possessed Miroku, Sango, and Kouga come along. WATCH OUT KAGOME! Will Sessy save her or throw her out to the wolves, heh heh get it? Wolves=Kouga heh heh (I crack myself up sometimes, J/K!!!!). I can't really think of what else but I'll let you know in the notes b4 the next chapter, PEACE!
