Chapter Ten

"Well, nothing strange around here." Sango said approaching the others. They had traveled north to a village near the mountains. They hadn't encountered anything strange happening anywhere they went. No sign of Naraku, no sign of the remaining jewel shards.

"We should go then. Off to the next village." Inuyasha said.

"Perhaps we should stay in this village for the night." Miroku suggested. "Sundown should be soon. I could find us a place to stay."

"Of course you could, just convince the residents of the richest looking house that it needs an exorcism." Sango stared at him with a disapproving look.

"Well…"

"Just do it already." Inuyasha urged him along and hey all followed him. Soon they came across the biggest looking house in the village and Miroku had convinced the owners that a demon had possessed it. The owner, of course, let them in and Miroku did his "exorcism". As payment the owner let them stay the night and provided them with food and drinks.

The next morning they got up early and set of even farther north then they already were. The trip was uneventful until an unwanted guest suddenly showed up.

"Kagura." Inuyasha growled and put his hand on the hilt of Tetsusaiga. "What are you doing here?"

"Naraku wanted to get rid of you once and for all. I felt obligated to do it myself." She said, her expression stayed the same.

Inuyasha muttered something incomprehensible and pulled Tetsusaiga from its sheath. "You won't get a chance to kill me, 'cause I'll kill you first." He said as he lunged at her.

Note: Ooooh, what's gonna happen? By the way, you won't find out about what happened to Ranma until the next chapter. Aren't I evil? Muahahahaha.

Cya! (PS. Review PLEASE!)
