Chapter 12 The Beginning of the end
Looking at the group assembled in her house, Kagome sighed, This is going to be more complicated than I thought. "Alright" she said, "You two!!! Inuyasha, Kouga! stop growling!"
"But Kagome!" Inuyasha whined, well, sort of, "Why is this baka Wolf here!?"
"Humph!" the wolf said, "I can be wherever I want! Kagome is my woman anyways, so it's only normal for me to be near her!"
The others looked at Kagome in shock, those who don't know about Kouga's tendency to live in wonderland, that is. "I am not your woman Kouga! As I said so many times before! I - arg! Never mind! Anyways, we've got more important things to talk about!"
Inuyasha feh'ed and said, "And what would that be?"
Kagome turned to the group, "Alright, we've discovered a problem, Kurama and I that is. When Naraku destroyed the binding spells on the well, the magic in it escaped and is now traveling randomly around Feudal Japan, well, not really randomly I think, but I'll talk about that later. Anyways, it's traveling around Feudal Japan randomly transporting people and youkai into our time."
When she finished, ever one remained silent. All were thinking about the disasters it would bring if people, especially if youkai from the past was transported into the future. Kouga still had no clue whatsoever as to what they were talking about but he kept silent, knowing that Kagome had promised him earlier on that she would tell him later.
Finally, Hiei said, "What do you mean a while ago when you said that the people transported here were not random?"
Kagome nodded, the question had got everyone's attention once again, they were all curious about it.
"As you see, Kouga was transported, and I as I remember him saying, he was fairly far from Inuyasha's Forest and the Well when that happened, the power could've transported anyone in Kouga's pack, but it had to be just him, why? I think that the best answer is that something big is going to happen, and it will involve the people that are key to Naraku and Darkness's defeat or victory. That means that Kikyou will be here..." Kagome paused to look at Inuyasha, and then continued with a strange look in her eyes, "So will Sesshoumaru and maybe others like Kohaku, if he is not already with Naraku. And I would believe that several others will be here as well..."
Silence, then everyone all started talking at once.
"Who's Sesshoumaru........."
"What do you mean.........."
"Oi! Wimpy wolf now tell............"
"MOMMY!!!"
Kagome closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then opened her eyes, they glowed lilac with power as she muttered a spell under her breath, when she finished, the whole room was silent, though everyone was talking and moving their mouths, no sound came out. Finally realizing this, they all fell silent and looked at Kagome, who smiled and said with a small sigh, "That's much better, NOW! I'll undo this spell one by one and you can ask whatever you want. That racket you were making is causing me to have a headache."
"Now, we can get to business, I'll undo the spell one at a time and you can ask me any questions you have. Having over ten voices coming at you isn't the best way to start a conversation or a battle plan for that matter." She turned towards Inuyasha and clicked her fingers, "Now Inuyasha, what is it you want to know?"
"HOW DID YOU DO THAT!!??" Inuyasha demanded.
"Is that all you need to know? How I did that? Here I thought you were going to ask about Sesshoumaru." Kagome said, slightly amused.
"WHAT!!?? DID YOU SAY SESSHOUMARU??" Inuyasha shouted, and then started muttering under his breath, Kagome could faintly catch words like bastard and cold-blooded S.O.B. and the like.
Sighing, she said, "Inuyasha, are you going to let me answer the question or not? If not then I should get someone else………."
With that Inuyasha immediately shut up, and Kagome flashed a bright smile before saying, "As I was saying, I think the reason the well is working is actually because of the Shinkon no Tama, it somehow activated the age old magic that was in the well. So when the well broke, the magic that was contained in there broke free as well, just like the Shinkon. And also because of the relationship between the Shinkon and the well's magic, the magic will transport any one related to the Shinkon to this era. Which means… That other than Naraku, Sesshoumaru will definitely be here, so will Kohaku, and Kouga is already here."
The others listened, though the Reikai tanteis did not really understand what they meant by 'transporting them to this time' but they understood that it had to do with the powers of the infamous Shinkon no Tama. (A/N: I don't think I ever covered Kagome's story in the feudal era did I? I did but not to full detail, the tanteis still don't know about Kikyou and the others^^)
Then Kagome turned to Miroku, Sango and Shippo, "I don't think you have anything to ask do you?" They shook their heads, "Well, will you keep quiet while the others ask questions if I release you from the charm?" They nodded in response and Kagome clicked her fingers.
They kept their silence, but of course, that never lasted long because Miroku chose that time to grope Sango,
*BANG* "HENTAI! BAKA MONK!!!"
Kagome just ignored that and undid Kouga's spell, she explained to him that she was in actual fact from 500 years into the future and that is where they were now.
Finally she turned to the Tanteis, "Well, what do you want to ask me?" she said after she un-enchanted them.
"Can you tell us about the things that happened to you in the Sengoku Jidai and about the Shinkon no Tama? All we know is that it is made by a powerful priestess named Midoriko and that now you are guarding it and trying to collect all the shards to make it whole, what we don't know is how it was broken in the first place and why is Naraku after it." Kurama spoke up, representing the group while the others nodded (Of course, Kuwabara is just staring into space, not paying attention, sorry Kuwabara fans, I don't really like him very much *grimace*).
Kagome thought for a moment,
"Well… I guess if you want to know everything that happened to me this past year that I have been to the Sengoku Jidai then we had better start at my 15th birthday ne……….." (A/N: sorry, I'm lazy, and not to mention it will take much more time if I told the whole story :P)
She told them of her first trip to the Feudal era, of releasing Inuyasha from the Goshinboku, the Tama appearing from her body and how she broke it, she told them how she met Shippo and how Miroku and Sango came to be in her group with the others adding a comment or two. Then she told them about Midoriko, her story and then most of all, she told them about their battle with Naraku, and the marauder Onigumo, how his lust for Kikyou and the Shinkon no Tama led to the untimely deaths of both her and Inuyasha, both thinking that they were betrayed.
The rest sat in silence after they heard the story, taking in all that was said. Kurama had to admire Kagome for what she had done, her sacrifices for the group in front of them and most of all for Inuyasha. From that, Kurama had to wonder if Kagome was still in love with the hanyou, though the Youko inside him already claimed Kagome to be his, Kurama knew that if Kagome still loved Inuyasha then there is nothing him or Youko can do to change that.
"ANYWAYS!!" Kagome shouted suddenly, getting rid of the tension in the air, "Since you're all here, lets have a party!! I haven't had one of those in a long time, since I started going to the Feudal era! I'll go order some food and we can have some fun tonight since Inuyasha, Kouga, Sango, Miroku and Shippo have never been to a party in modern times, what do you think?"
She thought for a moment, then with an evil glint in her eyes she said, "We can play Truth or Dare and all the other games…"
Yuusuke grinned evilly at Inuyasha, saying, "Oooo, this is going to be SO fun!"
Inuyasha started to edge away from the combination of evil looks coming from Kagome and Yuusuke.
And the fun stared.
Though the atmosphere was happy, everyone in the room knew that it will soon be time for the confrontation between Naraku and maybe even Darkness, starting from tomorrow, things will start to happen, that they all knew in their hearts. The sense of foreboding was strong in their minds; a series of events will soon lead them to Naraku and the road from here will definitely be hard, but what they didn't know was the betrayals and the sorrow that this journey will bring and the power of hatred.
