Chapter Five
"Kanna let me see what is going on with Inuyasha and the others." Naraku said comanndingly.
"Yes master Naraku." Kanna said obediently.
"Ah, Kouga and that new demon are falling right into my trap." Naraku said obviously pleased at the way things were going.
"Master Naraku." Kanna sounded like it was important.
"Yes Kanna. What is it?" Naraku he had registered the change in her voice.
"Kouga and that other demon just stopped." Kanna said slightly worried.
"Oh, Lets just watch and wait to see what they do, and if they can catch my trap before it catches them." Naraku said unfazed.
Back with Inuyasha the gang.
"Hey, the flea bag and Pegasus have been gone for a while now." Inuyasha gripped impatiently.
"Yeah, I wonder what's up." Sango said slightly worried.
"Maybe they got caught in a trap set by Naraku." Shippo said really worried, he liked Kouga and the new friend the group had found.
"That's not very likely Shippo." Kagome said trying to reassure the fox cub.
"Why not Kagome?" Shippo asked.
"Because they both could out run anything sent by Naraku." Kagome said smiling.
"That's what they think, my new incarnation can out run them any day." Naraku said in a reply to Kagome's statement.
Back with Pegasus and Kouga
Kouga and Pegasus had been stopped and resting for about five minutes in a clearing near the edge of the forest. They were sitting on boulders just enjoying the fresh air and thinking. They both noticed a new scent in the glade and Pegasus jumped up into a tree to try and get a better sniff of the scent.
"Hey Pegasus, Do you smell that?" Kouga said looking up at her.
"Yeah, what do you think it is?" She didn't know what the scent was but she didn't like it.
"Another incarnation maybe?" Kouga had got up off the boulder and was looking to the north.
"I don't know possibly, I wonder what powers this one is gonna have." Pegasus said as she jumped down to where Kouga was standing.
"What do you mean?" Kouga was confused by her statement.
"Well, Kagura has wind powers right?" Pegasus said as if stating the obvious.
"Yeah."Kouga said. He still didn't get it.
"Well I figured maybe, this new one would have powers as well." Pegasus said slowly.
'Very good Pegasus. You guessed right my new incarnation does have a special power, speed.' Narakuthought as he watched them through Kanna's mirror.
"Listen, do you hear that?" Pegasus said as she moved her ears around slightly. (A/N you can do this w/o dog ears because I can move my ears.)
"Yeah it kinda sounds like foot steps." they couldn't hear very well because the wind was blowing.
"Naraku's new incarnation must have the power of speed!" Pegasus said hurriedly, she didn't like this at all.
"Hey, they sound like they're getting farther away!" Kouga half yelled.
"Oh no, It must be headed for Inuyasha!" Pegasus she was worried about Inuyasha and Lokie.
"Who cares about that mutt." he said and began to sit down again.
"Kouga, Kagome is with Inuyasha." She couldn't believe he didn't freak out.
"Oh my god! We gotta go save her, that mutt is really incompetent." Kouga he said taking off again.
"Don't say that about Inuyasha!" Pegasus yelled at him, following him and running to catch up.
"Why not? It's true." Kouga said.
"No it isn't!" She didn't like the way Kouga talked about her brother.
"Hey instead of arguing about lets go warn Kagome." Kouga said, his mind was set on Kagome.
"I only hope that we can beat it in time." Pegasus said quietly, she was still worried.
"We will, we're two of the fastest demons on earth." Kouga yelled confidently.
'That's what you think Kouga, my incarnation will kill you all and bring me Kikyo, and if I can't have her I will have Kagome in her place! I shall also have the Tetsuseiga and all your jewel shards from you to complete the sacred jewel!' Naraku thought with a smirk on his face. He was totally confident in his Incarnation.
"Let's go Kouga." Pegasus said as she sped up to be in the lead. Kouga did the same to keep up.
With Inuyasha
"Inuyasha do you feel that?" Miroku said as he stood suddenly.
"Yeah, a malignant spirit is coming." Inuyasha said and he looked to the north
"I think there's more than one coming." Sango had kilala in her arms.
"No, There other two are Kouga and Pegasus, they are trying to catch up to Naraku's newest incarnation." Lokie said from the back of the group.
"How do you know that?" Miroku asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Pegasus told me through telepathy." Lokie said as if it happened everyday.
"What, she can speak to with her mind!" Kagome had never heard of that before.
"Yeah, what's so weird about that? Inuyasha could be able to speak to you with his mind if he opened himself up to that power." Lokie said calmly
"No I couldn't." Inuyasha said quickly.
"That right there is why you cant." Lokie said.
"Inuyasha just tell yourself you can." Kagome pleaded she wanted to see I you could do it.
'But I can't do it Kagome' Inuyasha thought to himself.
"Inuyasha I heard that." Kagome said softly.
'What did she hear?' Inuyasha thought, he was confused.
"Inuyasha, you just thought 'What did she hear?' am I right?" Kagome said happily.
"How did you know that?" Inuyasha asked raising an eyebrow.
"I told you, you could Inuyasha." Lokie said in an I-told-you-so voice.
'Wow, I can, cool.' Inuyasha thought.
"Lokie can anyone else hear Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.
"They shouldn't be able to." Lokie said thinking.
"What determines who can hear me?" inuyasha asked Lokie, he didnt think he would like th answer.
"Only a person you love and hold dear to your heart can hear you, however they have to have the same feelings for you." Lokie said. That's exactly what Inuyasha didn't want to hear.
Inuyasha and Kagome both blushed a deep red, shippo laughed at them when he saw them, this provoked a threat from Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha leave Shippo alone." Kagome said sensing eminent danger for the fox cub.
"He was laughing at you to Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Gosh Inuyasha I didn't mean to upset you so much. So what you love a human so does Pegasus who cares what they are." Lokie tried to explain to an irate Inuyasha.
"Perhaps it would be best if just got off the subject for now." Miroku suggested.
'I do not love Kagome.' Inuyasha thought loudly to himself.
"Then who do you love Inuyasha?" Kagome Kagome said quietly.
"Hey Lokie, how do I turn this telepathy thing off!" Inuyasha asked annoyed by it already.
"Oh, I don't know exactly, I'll have to ask Pegasus when she gets back." Lokie said looking down at his feet to avoid Inuyasha's glares.
"Hey is there any way I can talk back to Inuyasha?" Kagome asked suddenly.
"I don't know that either, sorry, but I don't think so." Lokie said, he could tell that Kagome was disappointed.
"That's not fair, Kagome can know what I'm thinking but I don't get to know what she thinks!" Inuyasha yelled.
'That sucks I cant know how Kagome feels about me but she can know how I feel? That's so not fair!' Inuyasha yelled in his mind.
"What's so not fair about it Inuyasha? I think its very fair." Kagome teased.
'Er I forgot that she can hear me.' Inuyasha thought, putting his arms in his kimono sleeves.
