Old Aquaintances: Chapter 3 Annoying Turn of Events

Inu-Yasha, Sango, Kagome, Miroku, and Shippo had a dumbfounded look on their face. All thinking along the lines of '"What in the hell?". Haraka noticed this and continued, "Well as I was saying, Naraku asked me to help him destroy some people, a favor between hanyous." The look on everyone elses face began to return to normal, but then turned confused. "It seemed that he was having trouble with a miko and a demon, he didn't mention if the demon, you Inu-Yasha, were youkai or hanyou so I had no complaints. He asked me to come up with a plan because I was very good at coming up with fullproof plans. After he carried out the plan, I checked up on the victims to come across a dead miko and you, Inu-Yasha stuck up in a tree with an arrow through your heart. It was really unnerving to find out that you helped someone destroy a friend without realizing it. I am sorry, but over the years, I came across him over and over again, killing and tricking, I even witnessed him pierce a monks hand, I knew then that he was truly evil, but I didn't attack him because I really didn't care who he struck now that my only friend was gone. I felt really ashamed that it was my plan that did it, so I never really could strike him."

Miroku was now fuming, "That monk who's hand was pierced was my great grandfather, and why didn't you do anything!" Haraka was now realizing it and decided to continue, "A few years later, I met a beautiful hanyou, all that had happend as a child happend to the both of us, change a few things. I fell in love with her and we mated, she is around here now probably looking for me, but when we were traveling around, we witnessed some ver terrible sights of the aftermath of one of his overkill. I don't know why my story is only about Naraku, it's just that, I couldn't keep away from him for to long. So we tried to keep Naraku out of our lives, and for a period we did, after building a house to live in. We never truly settled down, but we started a nice and small family. Everything, else is very much on the lines of that except as we were traveling along we saw Naraku, talking with a band of youkai. It seems that he wanted to get rid of a specific clan of kitsunes because they were really troubling him. I decided not to watch, that was three years ago."

Shippo stared at Haraka with a sense of a mild hatred and said, "That was my clan that was destroyed, why didn't you do anything to stop them!" Haraka looked at shippo with a small amount of regret in his eyes, "Sorry, and becides, would you have met Kagome, Inu-Yasha, Sango, and to a lesser extent Miroku? I have found that the person who changes their personal past, dramatically change who they are in their future. I have met some people who had a faint grasp of time travel, all witches." Shippo, still feeling a little mad, decided to sit down and space out. Miroku, annoyed at the moment because of all the times that Haraka could have stoped at least some of thier sufferings. "Currently, Naraku is disguesed as some lord who was said to have single handedly destroyed the best demon slayers there are." Now it was Sango's turn to be a little mad, "That was my family that was destroyed!" Haraka was now feeling that all their lives were intertwined in way that if Naraku was removed from it, most of the knots would be removed and everything would be better.

As Haraka was showing them the way to his and his mates house, Haraka's mate showed up. She was about six foot one, green eyes and black hair half as long as Hakara. She wore a Haori that was a little shorter that Inu-Yasha's and Haraka's, but it was white with a gold stripe going along her sholders. "Who are these people you are traveling with?" She asked in a calm voice, considering the group. "Remember the hanyou that I was friends with way back? Well her he is, his name is Inu-Yasha, This kitsune is shippo, the monk is Miroku, the girl with the huge boomerang is Sango, and the firecat is Kilala." Now looking at them, "This is my mate, Jaramara." Pointing at his mate who was now jumping down from a tree limb and toward the group. Jaramara, now curious, "Is it me or does he always meet someone that he has know for a long time?"

As they were traveling to the house an interesting conversation started, Inu-Yasha siad, "Naraku's a pain in the ass..." Jaramara looked at him questoningly, "How is this Naraku?" Inu-Yasha quickly replied, "A hanyou who always weres a babbon pelt." Jaramara looked at Inu-Yasha and said, "Him, your right on that one, Naraku always has a habit of coming into the area around Haraka. He always had a look in his eyes when the light hit them that said he wanted to talk, but would always leave." Haraka looked at her and said, "Please don't bring him up, most of these, actually all of these people were hurt by him, one way or another. And why did you leave the kids home alone?" Jaramara looked at him, "They are ten and thirteen, and they can protect themselves." Kagome then butted in so they wouldn't have time to argue, "Really? What are there names?" Inu-Yasha then butted in over Kagome, "Why don't you have some patience? We will be there soon from what Haraka says." Kagome then started to yell at him, "Patience! I go back to my time for one day and you go down my throat when I return so we can look for the shards!" Inu-Yasha putting on avery coocky attitude, "Well at least I don't leave for days on end!" Kagome was infuriated as well as frustrated, "Ooh SIT BOY!" Inu-Yasha falls face first in the dirt. Haraka looks at what happend, somewhat scared and says, "Thanks for warning me earlier not to bug her, damn she yells loud, and I'm glad that I don't have one of those neclaces around my neck."

Kagome, still fuming, "What did you mean by warning you?" Putting on an innocent voice that sent Haraka back, "He said that arguing with you is very painful to the ears, and if you have those prayer beads around your neck..." Haraka stoped when he noticed the blood vessels on her forehad almost bursting out. "So that's what you mean by warning you." Kagome said through her teeth,grinning. "Inu-Yaasha, SIT! SIT! SIT!" She then walked up to Inu-Yasha face down in the dirt and yelled in his ear, "Then WHY do you always argue with me!"

Good thing I put this in document manager before i tried to install a printer... Sadfully the computer crashed during installation and it wouldn't start up again without resetting itself and the boot disk is still in storage... I have just moved and i am using a pc with basic capabilities... Such as 16 MB of Ram, 300 MHz you know, CRAPPY... That is why I might not post for a bit...
