Disclaimer: …….do I really need to keep saying these?
Lawyers: (get ready to attack)
Shel: Fine…I don't own anything that Rumiko Takahashi-san has geniusly come up with…I'm just borrowing her ideas.
La: HA! Take that lawyers!
Lawyers: (growl…run away)
Shel: Now onto another chapter from me. This chapter was a little difficult but—
InuYasha: I FOUND IT!
Shel! Da nickel? (gets hit in the head with it)
InuYasha: (holds out hand)Ramen, please!
Shel: Damn. That was short lived.
Kagome: Yep.
Shel: And…in case some of you were wondering, Ren is a dragon demon and my friend, Tabby's (NarakusMate) character. In my prospective (BIG WORD! YAY!) I think Ren looks like Lust from FMA with fluffy dragon ears, fluffy tail, a purple cotton kimono with black and red flames and a yellow tie and Lust's hair. Very pretty! Dat ish all!
COOKIES FOR THESE PEOPLE! Flamesofthemo0n gets cookies, NarakusMate gets cookies, Shel gets cookies (shoves a cookie in mouth), um…La gets cookies, Taeniaea gets lots of cookies for reviewing for every single chapter from Spider Scar and Resurrection, um…Flames gets more cookies for being a beta reader and so does NM. AND! SsRYOKO-KUN! (HUGS!) Where have you been! Oh well…glad your back! Done! Onto the chapter!
Kagome sat straight up. "Yu…Yumi…"Kagome gathered all her strength to stand up and grabbed her bow and the arrow, aiming for the dragon youkai again. She needs me, more than ever before.
But before she could release the arrow, a heavy object made contact with her stomach, knocking the air out of her and she tumbled to the ground everything now black.
Ren crossed her arms in front of her as she watched the wind youkai slam into Kagome. As soon as the miko hit the ground, Kagura twisted around to glare at Ren.
Ren glared back. "Kagura." She said smugly.
"Wench." Kagura replied back.
"Bitch." Ren uncrossed her arms and returned the glare she was given by Kagura with one of her own. "What brings you so close to the castle?"
"I heard you were here." She smirked. "So it's not important. Listen, if Kagome is to die, it will be at my hands."
Ren raised an eyebrow and pushed her black hair out of her face. "And why is that? You and Kagome have a special score to settle or something?"
Kagura's smirk grew wider. "Sort of." After that, Kagura swished her fan around and disappeared.
Ren shrugged at Kagome's fallen and unconscious form now with Yumi kneeling over her shaking her, trying to wake her up. Ren sighed. "Oh dear. If InuYasha finds her like this, I'll die." She said with utmost bored tone. "Better warn Naraku."
But she stopped short, a wicked grin crossing her face. "Or—." She twisted around just slightly enough to get a glimpse of the miko. And her grin widened. "Maybe—."
Twitch. Twitch.
He skidded to a halt, almost resulting in Miroku crashing into him. "InuYasha?"
He sniffed the air. "Something is wrong." Sniff.
"With Kagome?"
InuYasha growled. "Yep."
Shippo made a small noise from Sango's shoulder and the taijiya grew stiff. "Is she alright?"
"We'll find out." The hanyou pushed Miroku to the side and ran back down the hallway, disappearing around the corner.
"I hope she's ok." Shippo whined balling his fists in the demon slayer's shoulder. Sango gave a weak smile. "I'm sure Kagome is just fine."
Shippo blinked. "Kagome, yeah! I'm sure she'll be ok. I was talking about Yumi."
Miroku raised and eyebrow and that perverted grin crossed his face. "Seems you've grown fond of that girl Shi—."
Sango pushed him, harder, and his face met the wall. "—ppo…"
Sango shook her head. "Take this serious Houshi-sama! This is hardly the time to even think about something like that!"
Miroku pulled his face out of the wall. "Trust me, Sango. I don't think I'm capable of thinking anymore." He whined something like "ow." and followed the kitsune and demon slayer down the hall."
Kagome sat up groggily. "What—who?" She suddenly found herself being squeezed to death by the young girl beside her. "Mommy!" She whimpered. "You're ok!"
Kagome blinked. What did she call her? Mommy? But she even said herself—.
"How could I have a pathetic mother like you, Kagome?"
With that past thought and an absolute confused look, the miko slipped her arms around the girl and hugged her back. "Yeah I'm…fine."
Yumi pulled away from her but instead of a look of pure amazement she was, dare I say, smiling at her? "Were you scared?"
Kagome blinked a few times and ended up just returning the smile with her own. "I can handle someone like Ren." She rubbed the back of her head. "But I'm not sure what hit me…"
Yumi mouthed the word 'Kagura' but kept silent.
Kagome had a cut on her face and her right arm was burned form the lightning attack. Other than that, she was a little fazed and confused but she was breathing. "Where is—."
"Ren left." Yumi answered quickly. "I think she went back to the castle." Then turned around to point at the large castle, a miasma cloud still hovering over it.
Kagome nodded then attempted to stand up.
Plop.
"Ow!" The miko rubbed her back and sighed. "I guess I'm injured more than I thought."
"Or look?" It was a question. Yumi half smiled.
Ren slid the door open and slipped inside. "Miss me Naraku?"
"Hardly." The demon answered from the middle of the room, Kanna sitting in front of him holding the mirror.
Ren stiffened. "What's the little girl doing in here?"
"Kanna has shown me many things from your battle outside with Kagome." Naraku answered just a little too smugly. Ren narrowed her black eyes at him. "Oh? Then you'll know I won."
Naraku raised an eyebrow at her. "I don't believe it was you how knocked the miko to the ground if that's what you're implying."
"What do you mean? You think your puny little experiment you call 'Yumi' go her?" She asked cramming sarcasm into a serious question.
Naraku narrowed his own red eyes, expression growing grim. "Tell me who it was. If it was not Kagura, my eyes deceive me then."
Ren crossed her arms and titled her head to the side. "The only one to deceive you Naraku-kun, is Kagura and if she counts, Yumi. No one else."
Naraku stared at her before lifting his cold gaze back to the mirror. "Away with you Ren."
The dragon demon smirked, then bowed and slid the door open. She threw a look over her shoulder at Naraku then exited the room, slamming the door shut.
Naraku growled in disgust. "That damn wench." He looked to Kanna thoughtfully. The white girl shrugged at him. He shifted his position but kept his gaze on Kanna. "What could she be planning?"
