Disclaimer: You got the point.

Thanx to P.L.S. and rsd for reveiwing!

Chapter 26: Lucky Break

Sailor Mars watched the two children. The girl had a small grin on her face and she held her mirror out in front of her, in prepration.

The boy held his chain and blade at arm's length, he had a faraway look in his eyes and to Sailor Mars, looked like he was possesed.

'The boy must be possessed, but by who? The girl, maybe?'

Kohaku wiped his weapon around and sent the blade at Mars.

She jumped straight up and the blade missed her by inches. She landed on the ground in front of the two.

"Mars Ember Shot!" She sent a ball of fire towards the boy, who was busy collecting his weapon.

The attack flew straight at Kohaku, who looked at it blankly. At the last second, Kanna stepped in front of the attack and held her mirror out. The attack stopped in midair, and flew back at Mars.

She looked at the approaching fire ball in shock. "What the?" Luckily, she had enough sence to dodge. "How'd the...how'd she...my own attack?" She couldn't form a decent sentence as she watched the trees behind her burn.

'I get it, the boy attacks, I try to retaliate, the girl sends my attack back at me, but how to defeat them? AHHH I'm never going to take Mercury's brain for granted again!'

"Kikyo, what are you doing here?" Inuyasha asked.

She smiled. "I thought you were searching for me."

"You must be mistaken," Miroku said. "We are searching for a miko who has the power to read fire, and smells like a flame."

"That is me." Kikyo said simply. "Since I no longer have the jewel to protect, I took some lessons from a kind old priestess and the ashes from the flames must have gotten on me, and that's why I smelled like a fire."

Sango looked at her. "Yeah, but the panther demon..."

"A simple spell." Kikyo interuped. 'Perfect, they fell for it.' Kikyo smiled. "I spared the demon because it would have drained me, and there was really no need to kill it because it didn't have a jewel fragment."

Kagome's eyes widened. 'But, there WAS a fragment, she IS lying!!!'

"Liar." Inuyasha growled.

Kikyo looked shocked. Then, her eyes darkened. "No one has ever called me that!"

She pulled a sacred arrow back in her bow and sent it straight for Kagome and Inuyasha.

Inuyasha grabbed Kagome and jumped to safety.

********************************************************************************

Mars looked at the two smirking children. 'Darn it. How do I get them.'

"Mars Fire Wall!"

This time the attack went for Kanna. Smiling, she held her mirror out and just like last time, the attack went sailing back at Mars, who dodged.

Kohaku again threw his weapon at the miko, who jumped clear. 'Since there's two of them, its twice as hard to fight. Wait a second, maybe THATS the key.'

She jumped high into the air.

"Mars Ember Shot!!!" She sent the attack at Kanna who readied her mirror. Immediately, she took out her spell scroll.

"Evil Spirits Begone!!!" She sent the scroll at Kohaku who looked at it blankly.

Kanna looked at the two attacks. She didn't know what to do. Protect herself, or her partner.

She didn't have to wait long, fortunatly, as she was engulfed in a fire blast. Soon after, the scroll hit Kohaku and he fell to the ground, palarized.

Mars landed on the ground and wiped her forehead. "Wow, that was close."

Aruis looked on, angry. 'Darn it. Now I'll have to come up with another plan.' He vanished in a portal.

********************************************************************************

Kagura finally reached Inuyasha. 'There he is. Wait a second, is that the girl?! How'd she get here? Did she change her clothes?'

She looked at Kikyo, who she had mistaken for Rachel. 'Guess I'll have to get rid of her before I kill the others.'

She pulled out her fan. "Dance of the Wind-Blades!"

The attack hit Kikyo dead on and sent her screaming into the air. (A/N Imagine Pokemon's Team Rocket Blasting Off.)

"Kikyo!!!" Inuyasha screamed.

Kagura looked on dumbly. "Oh, that was Kikyo, um, oops."

Inuyasha looked up at Kagura. "You're going to pay for that!"

Kagura sweatdropped. "Um, maybe I should leave..." She turned to go.

"MARS FIRE WALL!!!!" Out of nowhere, a wall of pure fire hit Kagura in the back and she screamed in pain.

Behind her, a girl stood. She wore a red two layered skirt, and a sailor-like top. On her feet she wore red high heels and her long black hair was tied in a low ponytail with a white ribbon.

Miroku looked her up and down. Drool rolled down his chin.

The girl jumped high, and landed inbetween the Inuyasha group and Kagura, so that her back was towards the gang and they could see her name 'Mars' in cursive writing on her back.

She pointed at Kagura.

"Guarded by the forth planet, I am the sailor soldier, Mars. Protector to the princess, I am a Sailor Star.I am Sailor Mars, soldier of flame, I fight with the power of fire, and I say, I will burn you alive!"

Kagura looked scared. 'Oh, crap.' She brought out her fan. "This isn't over!" A strong blast of wind hit Mars and the others.

Slowly, Mars opened her eyes, "Hey, she's gone." Then she remembered something. Slowly she turned and saw the crowd of people looking at her. "Um. Hi!"
