Chapter 12:Neko Youkai Sisters

The day was pleasant, with slightly overcast skies and a warm breeze. An odd group traveled down a dirt path. It contained two humans, two hanyous, and two youkais. To put in different words there was an orphan, two pairs of people in love, and a cat two-tailed cat.

To a silent observer from her view in the trees, they were the enemy; all who were associated with the target hanyou were the enemy.

Inside the onlooker burned with rage, but no one could tell, because her eyes were as impassive as cold hard stone.

She had been trailing them for several days, hiding her scent and aura, and trying to find a weakness in the hanyou she was out to kill. Finally the hidden person decided that a frontal attack was her best bet.

(A/N: have I caught your attention yet?)

SWITCH TO NORMAL POV

The 'gang' made their way down the dirt road on their way to the next town were they would find out about any rumors that related to the jewel shards.

Kagome was walking next to InuYasha, Sango and Miroku were in similar stance behind them, Kirara was on Sango's shoulder, and Shippo in Kagome's.

For the longest time Kagome had had the leering feeling that someone was watching her.

Suddenly a figure jumped from the tree line.

Standing before them was a neko youkai, she was wearing clothes similar to Kagome's except the under shirt and vest thing were pure white with blue flowery designs on the edge. Her face had two scarlet stripes on either cheekbone, and a goldenrod colored sun on her forehead. Her eyes were the same rich red wine color as Kagome's, and she had pointed ears and brown hair.

" I have found you at last, half-breed Kagome." The figure said.

They all readied for the attack.

"What is your business with Kagome." Sango asked, holding Haraikotsu ready for attack.

" I have no need to answer to lowly humans." She said and turned to Kagome.

' Is this person related to me? She has the crest. Sill, if she intends to fight me, I could probably defend myself for a while. I have InuYasha to help.'

" Who are you." Kagome asked.

" You really are stupid then," she said in a monotone voice, and unsheathed a sword of her own. " To not recognize your own sister!" She lunged in for an attack. Kagome unsheathed Sousei and the dragon came flying out, Sousei's mouth began to glow and a beam of energy shot out of her mouth toward the neko youkai. (Neko means cat)

The neko easily brushed it aside and continued her approach

' That was my strongest attack!' Kagome heard Sousei think.

Kagome stuck Sousei sword in the ground and chanted a miko spell to make a shield that Kaede had taught her. It's power joined with the shield that Sousei had made to make her shield a little stronger. InuYasha darted in front of the blow that the neko was about to deliver, with Tetsuaiga at the ready. Kagome was still in the middle of her shield chanting the spell under her breath.

Kagome came out of her stupor and noticed InuYasha go right in from of her.

" InuYasha!" she grabbed Sousei and ran in front of InuYasha just as The Neko was striking.

InuYasha was ready to block the oncoming hit, but just before it came, there was a brilliant flash a light.

Kagome brought Sousei up and blocked the blow, but at the cross section were their swords were touching, a bright light emanated, and Kagome had to close her eyes and turn her head away at the intensity of the outward rays.

The neko was smirking inwardly in triumph; this puny hanyou couldn't master her father's sword.

Flashback

When I had heard that father had mated again and that here was another heir, I was furious but forced myself to keep my façade up. Worst of all it was a human woman. If father had not kept them in hiding, wherever that was, and if it was not father who was protection them, I would kill them. Did that stupid human and hanyou know what this would do to her father's reputation! All evidence of my displeasure with my father was no outwardly shown, but I know he could tell.

The worst part of this is that there is a chance that I won't get the Sousei. (This was before the spirit dragon took residence in the sword, and when it did, since Sousei dragon didn't have a name, she was given the same name as the sword. Hope you guys understood that) That is the one thing that I want besides being the heir to the throne, which I already have.

End flashback

The powerful light (which came from Kag's sister's sword) dissipated when Kagome jumped back.

" You can't even fight." The neko said in mock, " you have no right to wield that sword, even with that insolent dragon spirit." Through all of this her emotionless façade never drops.

(I'm not terribly good at attack scenes, so I'm skipping to after it,)

The Neko youkai made a stately exit after she left InuYasha with a hole in his stomach and Kagome with several gashes on her body. Since they had hanyou abilities, they would survive.

' Sousei?' Kagome thought out to the apparition, Sousei flew over to Kagome.

'I'm sorry I could not protect you'

' It is ok, you only have to protect me by sealing my youkai blood, but the reason I asked you over here is to ask you to go find Mentiz, I have some questions for her.' Kagome thought to the dragon. Sousei flew off and the others gave her odd looks.

" Where is Sousei going." Shippo asked.

" To get Mentiz, I want to know about this sister person."

END CHAPTER


Next chapter you will find out who Kag's sister is, and why she wants to keep her name a secret.
