A Dog Man?

Tani felt her heart beating a hundred miles per second and she couldn't help but be worried about her sister. The sight that she saw was the most odd thing that she had ever seen.

"What the hell?" Tani asked seeing a teenager with starkly bright white hair and two puppy ears on his head. The ears twitched and Tan I saw the amber hued orbs focused on her. She was too busy allowing her eyes to dart between Kagome and the teenage male. What on Earth?

"Tani…" Kagome said quietly as if she were afraid. Tani was shocked. She didn't know what was going on. The dog boy was just staring at her with his ears twitching.

"What the hell is going on? Why is he in here? Who is he? What is he?" Tani asked quickly her eyes open wide.

"Stop talking, wench, you are hutting my ears." The dog boy said snapping at Tani.

"You best just keep your mouth shut before I inure you seriously." Tani said almost like a low grow. She was looking at Kagome expectantly.

"Hey, WENCH!" The dog boy said again and Tani had it. She was angry and wouldn't hold it in. Tani quickly stepped forward not in the least effected by her clothing and grabbed the boy's arm quickly twisting it behind him. He practically howled in pain.

"When I am speaking to my sister refrain from interrupting me and don't ever think about calling me that damn word again! Do you understand?" The boy growled and tried to move, but Tani just tightened her hold and twisted more.

"Kagome, get this person off of me! She's hurting me." The boy said as a wince was heard in his voice.

"Tani please let InuYasha go." Kagome said quietly. Tani let him go all the while scowling at him.

"Explain, now, Kagome!" Tani said gritting her teeth and crossing her arms in front of he chest.

"This is InuYasha. He is a half demon. I…travel to the past with him." Kagome said quietly as if she didn't think Tani would believe her. Tani stood there a moment and then suddenly she licked her lips and faced InuYasha.

"You, why couldn't you come at a more decent time?" Tani asked her eyes narrowed.

"We need her now." InuYasha said hotly.

"Do you want me to hurt you because I will?" Tani said stepping forward again. InuYasha didn't step back and Tani had him in the same hold as before and tighter this time. He squealed and she practically growled.

"Feh." InuYasha said, but it was evident that he didn't like Tani very much so far.

"Tani, I travel with him and four others in the Feudal Era of Japan. I am a miko." Tani knew she had sensed something from Kagome; she smiled and let InuYasha go.

"I knew it. I sensed something." Tani said quietly. Kagome and InuYasha looked at her with wide eyes.

"What do you mean, Tani?" Kagome asked. InuYasha just looked like a lost and confused, not to mention angry, puppy.

"Kagome, I…can't say." Tani replied. Tani had always been special. She could remember when she had first realized. She had been mad at the Hongs. That was when she realized that she could do it. What was it? She could sense things. She could dive into memories and sometimes she would even see a glimpse into the future. Kagome wouldn't know this oddity about her sister, though.

"I told you about me." Kagome protested. Her raven locks were falling into her face and she looked childish and innocent.

"I have some odd powers okay." Tani said quickly.

"Tani, care to elaborate?" Kagome asked, but as she did InuYasha let out a snort of contempt.

"Dude, why are you so rude?"

"I'm not rude. I am in a hurry." InuYasha said glaring at Tani.

"You are rude. Now be quiet before I decided to hurt you again." Tani said stepping forward. InuYasha stepped back.

"Feh." InuYasha responded as he took a seat on Kagome's bed.

"I can feel people's emotions and sometimes go deeper." Tani said shrugging. Kagome knew what she meant, though. The emotion was apparent in her eyes. She let it show that there was much more that frightened her. The emotions were there, just bottled in.

"Tani, mom knows that I go." Kagome said carefully.

"She lets you go?" Tani asked carefully with her arms still crossed.

"Yeah and she doesn't but me either!" InuYasha said brashly.

"If you don't want a permanent scar I suggest you close your yap." Tani said calmly cracking her fingers. InuYasha didn't seem phased, but Kagome laughed. Tani could feel the prickling of emotions at the back of her head, but she had a pretty good shield built up. Tani had a will of iron, if you couldn't tell already, and she wasn't swayed easily. If she set her mind to something she would always accomplish it.

"You couldn't do anything to me, wench." InuYasha said smirking. Tani felt her resolve break and she quickly lunged at him. Tani didn't need much more that the momentum she had and the element of surprise. She quickly pinned InuYasha to the ground and held his arms above his head. This was actually quite a humorous and compromising position. Tani was straddling InuYasha and she was holding him down. Kagome couldn't help but laugh at the two's antics.

"Tani, you should really calm down. He isn't that bad. InuYasha, you really should learn not to mess with people with such quick tempers especially if they can take you down as fast as my sister." Kagome said laughing. She couldn't help it. This situation was humorous. Tani felt her teeth automatically grit. She didn't find it too funny.

"Kagome, if you want to go next I would be obliged, but I really must punish this moron first." Tani said digging her knees into InuYasha's sides. She could feel him recoil at her digging. This was getting better by the minute. Not only had Tani taken down a half demon with little effort, but also she was actually causing discomfort.

"Get off of me you stupid wench!" InuYasha said as he wiggled about and tried to knock Tani off of his chest. Needless to say she locked her knees and he succeeded in rolling onto the top and forcing her arms down, but needles to say the antics didn't stop there. Tani quickly leaned upward and he went backward. In no time she wrapped her long muscular legs about his upper torso and she squeezed. The intake of his breath could be heard.

"I don't think you are learning your lesson." Tani commented. She wasn't out of breath. He only was because she was squeezing tightly upon his chest. Tani knew what she was doing that was for sure.

"Tani, please get off of him." Kagome asked stepping closer to the two. Tani flashed her a look and then squeezed tightly one more time. She did that for good measure. Tani wasted no time in jumping to her feet. Her bangs were falling into her face and she could feel the rest escaping her clip.

"I want to know what you do with this guy, Kagome?" Tani asked placing her hands on her hips and staring at her sister with a hardened gaze. Thus Kagome began to proceed to tell Tani about the Shikon jewel and how it came about. All about Midoriko, Kikyou, and InuYasha. Tani could feel the information swimming in her head and she knew that it was true. She could feel the honesty. Usually Tani could just tune her empathy out, but this time was odd and different. She couldn't fix it. She couldn't silence it. It was odd. She had always only felt little twinges, but now it was as if it were a full on attack. Tani understood all about the Shikon no Tama. She believed and she knew. There was something in her gut, but she ignored it.

"I suppose I can't stop you." Tani said shrugging as she did that her hair came out of the clip and InuYasha reached out to catch it, but Tani beat him to the punch. She had quick reflexes. InuYasha and Kagome both looked a bit surprised.

"You cant' stop me. I really do feel better that you know now, though." Kagome said picking up her pack and smiling. Tani resolved that she couldn't change anything. She would; however, escort the two teens to the well house. Tani grabbed her chucks and a zip up hoodie and walked out the door with them.

"This would be faster if you didn't waste time letting your sister tag along to walk us to the well, Kagome!' InuYasha complained.

"Pipe it down, jerk, before I really do try to hurt you." Tani said stepping toward him. InuYasha quickly took a step back. The well house was right there. Tani opened the door and stepped inside. Her legs were bare and she did shiver a bit with the cold air, but she wanted to see her sister off. InuYasha and Kagome stepped onto the lip of the well and waved as they both jumped hand in hand. That was sort of cute Tani thought smiling. She frowned as she felt her body jerk, though. What was going on? Tani felt something dragging her. It smelled odd and Tani could feel something dragging her away. What on Earth? Tani's body was pulling her forward and she felt her stomach come into contact with the side of the well. Tani grunted and was pulled in, but just in time she was able to grab the lip of the well. She could feel her fingers slipping and felt her fingers being splintered by the wood. Her hands couldn't hold and she felt the splinters in her hands causing great pain. Her fingers were sore and her hands were extremely raw. A blue blinding light flashed and Tani felt her body hit the ground.
