Chapter 3

A/N: Thanks again, don'tbreakme, also thank you Yakumo1human and dark-ducky500

"So, what'd you think, Kagome?"

"Um… what did I think about…" Kagome debated what to say about his latest crush. Koga glared at her.

"About Katana! Come on, Kagome, you're not that stupid!"

"No, but neither are you. Koga, do you really think she's right for you? I don't think–"

"Kagome! What's wrong with you? I don't know why you just can't stand the fact that I'm in love with someone else! Are you jealous? I'm sorry, but you gave up your chance with me a long time ago-"

"I can't believe you're being so pig-headed! Koga, I thought you knew a lot better than this, but obviously I was wrong. If you don't believe me, talk to your clan… maybe you'll listen to your OWN KIND!"

Kagome stormed off towards Akiko's lair to further discuss Koga's issues with someone who would listen. How can he not see her obvious evils? He's got to be blinder than a bat to not be able to tell that she's a harpy! I mean, everyone in his clan hates her, when did he stop paying attention to them?

Akiko sat in his den, quietly meditating for signs of magic in the area. He had wondered why Kagome needed to know, but he trusted her judgement, and they had a common enemy: Katana. After a few moments of clearing his mind, his thoughts soared out of his body, encircling the area around him with ease. He brought them aboveground, searching earnestly for signs of mana.

There! Right there, next to… Koga?

"Don't worry, Koga, honey. I'm sure she'll get over it." He recognized that voice; it was Katana! What kind of magic would she be using, other than the disguising spell?

A hypnotic spell called ipnoteser was in use! This was major. This spell was very rare; in fact, no one had ever managed to create it. It was found in some natural gems, mostly rubies. (A/N: This idea came from Forgotten Realms)

He leaped up, racing through the wood. "Kagome! Kagome! Come here, quick! I know what that WITCH is using on Koga!"

"Which witch, exactly, did you mean?" Koga turned around and saw… Katana!

"Um… I don't… Well, I thought… and talking about… someone… person… Yeah."

"Wow, Akiko, that made a lot of sense. So, who exactly were you talking about? I didn't really catch that part, or any part, for that matter," she smirked. Akiko did some really quick thinking.

"I was talking about Koga's little niece. She's been pranking him for years, and I just figured out which spell she's using to do it."

"Mm hmm." There was no way, he knew, she was falling for that.

A/N: this is way too short of a chapter, but I felt like a cliffie. (;-D)
