Chapter 1

Last Time on the Jewel is Whole and Inuyasha's Decision:

"Inuyasha?" Kagome was speechless.

"What? I gave you an answer and you go all quiet on me" Inuyasha immediately became rude.

"Oh nothing. You just surprised me that's all" Kagome quickly replied. "Are you really serious! You want to be a hanyou again" Kagome changed the subject in a split second.

"Yeah I do. So what? Now are you going to nag me about this now?" Inuyasha crossed his arms.

"Oh Inuyasha…" Kagome wrapped her arms around his waist.

Inuyasha uncrossed his arms and put them around her waist as well. He rested his head on hers and they were both were blushing. Inuyasha took in a deep whiff of Kagome's scent and hugged her tighter. Shippou was embarrassed of seeing this so he tried to hide his eyes but kept peeking. The wind blew, the birds chirped, and the sun raises made you sweat. Love was blooming and the grass waved violently every time the wind would pass through the atmosphere. Silence took over and it didn't take long until Kaede interrupted the moment.

"What are ye doing out here? Aren't ye going after that demonic aura I mentioned just a few moments ago?" Kaede asked viciously.

"Kaede! Kaede!" Shippou jumped onto the old women's stiff shoulder.

"Ye all right young kitsune?" Kaede was surprised at the little kitsune's actions. "What is it Shippou?" Kaede laughed a little at the kitsune.

"Inuyasha has decided to become once again a half breed" Shippou spilled out the beans

End of Flashback:

All of a sudden a whole bunch of screams echoed through the trees. They were coming from the northern outskirts of the village. Screams and hollers were echoing for miles and seemed it was going to end. Kagome, Inuyasha, Kaede, and Shippou stopped and they all looked in the same direction.

"Inuyasha do you think there's a demon?" Kagome asked while shaken in the knees.

"Most defiantly it's a demon. No doubt about it" Inuyasha crouched a little. "Kagome quickly get on my back" Inuyasha sort of ordered.

"Yes" Kagome followed Inuyasha's instructions.

"Be careful you two" Kaede shouted after them.

"Wait for me!" Shippou ran after them.

"Poor Shippou" Kaede smiled and then went back into the hut.

As lady Kaede went inside, she found that a demonic aura was all around her hut. A strong barrier covered the hut so that no one could enter or exit. The clouds darkened and it began to hail. Every one was driven back to their homes for protection from the icy rain drops. Kaede was shivering but was trying to contain confidence. Kagome and Inuyasha were nearing the source of the screams for help. Demons covered the area and villagers were swarming all over the place.

"Someone help us!" a villager shouted.

"Come back here" one of the demons chased the villager around.

"Inuyasha down there" Kagome pointed out the demon chasing the village.

"On it!" Inuyasha aimed for the demon like a bullet.

"Not so fast" Kagome's eyes were wide.

"Too late" Inuyasha laughed a little as he through himself at the demon.

"Ah…ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Kagome screamed on top of her lungs.

In a split second, Inuyasha sliced the demon in half with his claws. The villager was so ever great full. Inuyasha again had the power to wield the Tetsusaiga so it shouldn't take too long.

"Say hello to my Tetsusaiga" Inuyasha unsheathed his sword of destruction.

All the demons stopped chasing the villagers and looked at Inuyasha like he was crazy.

"Wind Scar!" Inuyasha unleashed his sword's power. "God I missed doing this. I even forgot how it felt" Inuyasha thought to himself.

With one swipe, all the demons were diminished.

"You did it!" Kagome hugged Inuyasha.

Kagome's arms wrapped around Inuyasha's neck and her left leg lifted behind her. Inuyasha blushed and was scratching his head.

"Uh, Kagome…what are you doing this for" Inuyasha's face was beat red.

Kagome instantly turned rosy red and couldn't come up with a good excuse. Shippou soon arrived and saw the two at it again.

"Will they just come out and say that they love each other. Why do they have to be so complicated?" Shippou tired of their secret love.

Back to Kaede:

"What is this? There's a barrier around my hut?" Kaede felt the force around her.

Out of no where a shooting light of energy, struck Kaede in the shoulder. A deep wound appeared on her shoulder. Her kimono tarred and blood dripped. The demon was taking pure joy of her blood. Kaede was kneeling and was trying to stop the wound from bleeding. Another beam of energy struck her and it got her in the stomach. Finally the demon came out hiding and made large slits in her arms and legs, with its claws.

"Die you old priestess!" the demon created a large ball of energy in his hand.

"NO!" Kaede trembled.

"Now Die! Shintosuquita!" the demon released the large ball of energy at Kaede.

As it neared her, the ball kept getting larger. Once it hit her body the whole hut exploded. Pieces of the hut fell to the ground and the rest disintegrated in the blast.

Back to Inuyasha, Kagome, and Shippou:

"What the hell?" Inuyasha turned to the explosion.

Kagome and Shippou turned as well and wondered as well.

"Inuyasha that came from Kaede's village!" Kagome panicked.

"Kagome is right!" Shippou backed her up.

"Inuyasha lets go!" Kagome already was on her way back.

"Hey don't leave me behind you wench" Inuyasha shook his fists in the air as he ran after her.

"Now he knows how I feel when they leave me behind" Shippou murmured.

Mean while…

"Lady Kaede!" a villager came running.

"Lady Kaede!" another came along.

"Priestess!" soon enough every one gathered the explosion area.

"Does any one see priestess Kaede?" a man asked while he searched about the wreckage with his eyes.

Finally Inuyasha, Kagome, and Shippou appeared in the distance. The villagers signed by waving their hands in the air. As they got closer, Kagome stopped, and then Shippou held back as well.

"Come on, don't you want to see what happened?" Inuyasha turned around.

"Inuyasha…this is where Kaede's hut is. Well was" Kagome's eyes watered.

Inuyasha turned around and his eyes widened. Inuyasha stepped back one and then went forward again.

"What the hell happened?" Inuyasha wondered.

"Huh, Inuyasha where's Kaede? Where is she?" Kagome realized the old priestess's absence.

"Kagome…" Shippou jumped up into Kagome's arms and hugged her.

To be continued…
