Naori knew that they had no idea what she was talking about. She barely knew what she was talking about. How were they suppose to summon thier parents from the past? But they were willing to do anything. They gathered candles, herbs, sacred sutras, magical sand (they weren't sure if it was actually magical), and certain items that belonged to thier parents. They weren't sure what they were doing, but asked no questions.
They went far into the woods and into a clearing so the villagers wouldn't see them. Again they weren't sure what to do.
"Make a circle out of that sand,"Naori set the candles down in the ground while Mazuki poured the sand,"Kenta, place those items in the center." Kenta did as told. Mazuki spread the herbs around them.
"Now what do we do?"Kenta asked.
"We come up with a spell to bring them here." Naori grabbed a piece of paper and one of her mother's pens,"lets see what we can do."
After about a half hour, they agreed on one spell."Okay, but we're gonna need our blood." Naori took her palm and ran a sharp claw down it, piercing her skin and letting blood run freely. She let it drip in a small bowl until it seemed it was enough."We need your blood too." She said to them.
Mazuki and Kenta held out thier palms. Naori took Mazuki's palm, and in one quick motion, cut it down the middle and let it bleed. Mazuki followed what Naori did and let it drip in the bowl. Then she took Kenta's and sliced his too. He winced when she cut it but also let his blood drain into the bowl. Naori got up and they followed. They each went to seperate sides of the circle, making a triangle.
Naori took a deep breath,"Ready?" They nodded. They recited the spell that they created.
"Here us through the ends of time.
We summon you with our rhyme Blood to blood we summon thee Across time, come to me."
They chanted it over and over nonstop. Nothing happened until a strange wind circled them. They still chanted. Then balls of light started to fly around inside the circle. They looked at eachother and kept chanting. Then five physical figures appeared through the light and the light vanished. Everyone gasped.
"Where the hell are we!" Inuyasha asked looking around. Naori stared at him with her mouth open. He didn't notice her.
"Oh my god! We actullay did it,"she gasped.
It was then that they noticed the strange kids surrounding them. Miroku stepped out,"Children, can you please tell us who you are and what happened?"
Mazuki took a step foreward and Miroku eyed her. She looked so familiar."We,uh,we summoned you here. We-we need your help. This,"she paused,"this is the future."
"The future?" Miroku raised an eyebrow. Inuyasha snorted a laugh.
"Uh,yeah,we need your help. I'm Mazuki and this is my brother Kenta and -"she paused thinking about what to say,"And we are your future kids." They bursted out laughing.
"Ex-excuse me? My kids? You can't be my kids-" He said with a look of disbelief.
"Oh, we are, I know it sounds like some big gag, but it's all real. I'm Sango and your's daughter. Ha Ha."Sango's eyes got huge and she let out a whimper. Everyones' jaw dropped.
"Now wait," Inuyasha stepped out of the circle,"You expect me to beleive that you are thier future daughter and son? This is bullshit!"
"Well, you can beleive us and help us, or you cannot beleive us and still help us,"said Naori taking a step towards him.
Inuyasha's eyes fell on her ears, her eyes, her claws, and the rest of her facial apearance,"No. You don't mean-"
"Hi Daddy!" She waved at him, "I'm Naori!"
Kagome was pale and sat on the ground,"So you mean,"she took a gulp,"That me and Inuyasha are your parents?"
"That's right. Are you saying that you haven't announced your love for eachother? Man, maybe we went too far in the past." Naori seemed to be rather calm, "Now you can shut up, pretend we are some odd figment of your imagination and let us explain ourselves."
"Yes I would like to know what's going on,"said Sango,"This is all very bizzare."
"Well then you might want to sit down."
After about four hours, they still didn't believe or trust them. They explained themselves over and over, but still they looked at them like they were nuts. Finally, Naori had enough.
"Fine! You don't want to help us,okay! But right now we need to help our parents so you guys can just stay here. Oh,but wait. You need to return back to your own time and you can't do it without us, so your screwed!" She marched off angrily while the others stared at her.
She went into the woods and sat down under the Goshinboku tree. She bit her lip angrily. Her hero of a father was once a stubborn fool with a huge ego and pride. She never knew about his past, sure her mother told about him, but it was never like this. That scowling look he always had was not that of her fathers. Now how was she going to rescue her parents?
The bushes rustled and out came Kagome. Naori looked at her,"What do you want?"
Kagome sat next to her,"I know we aren't helping much, but you have to see how bizzare this is. One minute we're walking down the road and the next some kids are telling us that they're from the future and that we're thier parents."
Naori put her head between her knees,"I know. But we need help. We have to find the crystals so we can get our parents back and maybe that will show you that we're telling the truth."
Kagome looked at her. She reminded her so much of Inuyasha that she was soon convinced."You see, me and Inuyasha don't love eachother,well,"she looked around,"I love him,but he only cares about me. He loves Kikyo."
Naori shook her head,"He loves you. He told me about Kikyo and that he owed her his life, but he loved you and owed you his heart. That's why you guys got married and had me. You guys got married when you collected all the shards of the Shikon No Tama."
"What happened to the jewel?"
"Before I was born, you banished it and it no longer exists. You're a miko who travels from village to village to help others. We're all scavengers who roam, us and Sango and Miroku and the rest."
"Listen, we'll help you find these crystals if you promise to take us back to our own time when we're done."
Naori looked up at her and smiled, "Deal."
Two days have passed and things couldn't have been stranger. Nobody looked at eachother in the eye and barely talked. When Inuyasha and Kagome saw eachother, they would blush heavily and look away. The same was with Sango, but Miroku still stared after her. They continued to roam in search of the crystals. Inuyasha brought up the idea that there was no crystals and that they had been hijinxed. After awhile Naori had her doubts too.
They walked down the road and saw a couple of men talking. They stop to hear what they were saying.
"And she just pulled all the trees out?"asked one of the men to his buddy.
"She also made a large earthquake and most of the huts collapsed and she killed most of our soldiers with thorny vines. I'm telling you this demon put our own fields against us."
"Excuse me my fine men,"Miroku walked down to them and the others followed, "Can you tell me about what you were saying?"
The men looked at him and the others. They paused awhile to see if they should tell him since he befriended demons. But when they spotted his holy robes they decided it would be best so he could exterminate the demon.
"Yes, a demon has destroyed all our land. She can control the land and the forest and anything of nature. We sent soldiers after her, but none survived,"said the second man.
Could that demon hold the Earth Crystal? Naori looked down at the crystal around her neck. She wasn't sure if it was glowing because the sun's rays beemed off.
"Can you point me in the direction where she was last seen?"
The man lifted his finger straight out in the direction they were going,"But I warn you monk, she is very strong and powerful. I'm not sure that you can handle her."
"Feh, we'll beat her." Naori and Inuyasha stared at eachother since they both said it at the same time.
Then Inuyasha laughed, "Listen kid, you leave this to us. You don't know how to fight."
Naori glared at him but Mazuki stepped foreward,"That's not entirely true. I've been trained in the art of demon slaying all my life and so has Naori and I have almost mastered my mother's hiraikotsu."
Sango blinked,"You mean that's my hiraikotsu? Let me see for a minute."
Mazuki pulled the strap over her head and handed Sango the hiraikotsu. Sango put it in the ground and pulled back some of the cloth on the edges.
"What are you looking for?" Shippo asked.
"When my father gave me this, he engraved something in it." She pulled it back farther and showed it to them and read out loud,"To my oldest daughter Sango. Let this boomerang show your strength and knowledge of this ancient art."
"You engraved something for me to when you gave it to me," Mazuki flipped it over and showed her the engraving,"To our wonderful daughter,Mazuki, Fight for the right reasons and we love you very much. Love Mom and Dad."
Sango blinked,"Wow, I guess I really did"
"Come on, we need to head to that village and see about that demon,"said Miroku moving on.
After a few feet, they came across a village with upturned fields and broken houses. Large tree roots were sticking out of the ground and thorny vines had wrapped themselves around huts and tearing out the fields. It looked like a twister had settled itself here.
"I can smell demon all over the place,"stated Inuyasha.
"Naori! Our crystals are glowing!" Mazuki exclaimed.
Naori looked down and saw that hers was glowing pretty bright indeed. She was right. A demon must posses the Earth Crystal.
"What are those for?" Kagome asked.
"Adeth gave these to us to detect where the crystals are. That demon must have the Earth Crystal and is terrorizing this village,"said Naori.
"Well lets hurry up, kill this demon, collect these damn crystals so we can return back to our own time. Where is the demon anyway?" Inuyasha said.
"I think she might be in those woods,"said Naori.
"Fine then, lets go."
They walked in the forest and the smell of a demon and earth reached Naori's nose, "I can smell the demon."
"Me too,"said Inuyasha. Suddenly a thick root shot out just below him and he jumped to avoid it.
"Who has come to the forest of the Queen of Nature, Atalashi?" A woman with black hair and wearing a green kimono stepped out. She had vines around her ankles and wrists and some circled her head like a crown. Her black eyes followed them. Around her neck was a glistening green orb that Naori pressumed was the crystal.
"We come to destroy you and to take that crystal!" Inuyasha spat.
The woman smiled and laughed,"You? Defeat me? You are just a half breed and are no match for me!"
"Wanna bet?" Inuyasha unsheathed his sword, then he charged at the woman with the Tetsaiga raised above his head.A tree root shot out and threw Inuyasha back. Naori charged at her after Inuyasha.
"Iron reever!" But another thick vine slapped her across the chest pushing her back.
"Hiraikotsu!" Both boomerangs shot towards her but a giant wall of moss and dirt blocked thier attack. The woman laughed with amusement.
Naori clawed at the slashing vines and made her way towards the demon. She did a spinning kick and smacked the woman in the face. The woman hissed and vines wrapped around her ankles and smacked her against a tree. Kagome shot an arrow and pierced the shoulder.
Mazuki blocked the slashing vines and ran at the demon, but the ground began to violently roll and it tossed her back. Miroku caught her,"You okay?"
"Yeah, but we need to get that crystal, it can't be destroyed!"
He set her on her feet,"Don't worry, It won't." With his staff, he blocked the attacking vines. Inuyasha got up and tore the vines apart.
"Time for my Windscar!"
"Mom! Hurry stop him!" Naori didn't mean to call Kagome Mom but she seemed to get the idea.
"Sit boy!" Inuyasha fell to the ground and growled.
Miroku slashed at the demon with his staff and her right arm ripped off and she screamed in pain. He grabbed the crystal and pulled it off. After Miroku jumped away with the crystal, Mazuki slashed the demon in half.
She caught her boomerang and looked at Miroku,"Do you have it?"
"Yes," He showed her the green orb,"I sense great energy from this." In the crystal was the carving a green leaf. Then the light from earlier spread out and consumed them in it. Naori heard the others gasp and Inuyasha say,"What the hell!"
For the second time,they were in the darkness. Kenta gripped his sister's hand,"Why are we back here?"
"What is this place?" Miroku asked looking around.
Mazuki eyed the orb,"We need to put it in the star."
She began to walk foreward and the others followed. They came across the crystal wall and the tablet."I see you have the Earth Crystal." Adeth returned from the shadows,"I'm glad."
"And who the hell are you!" Inuyasha yelled.
"I am Adeth, the keeper of the Star,"she answered.
Kagome leaned against the crystal wall. When she noticed a clawed hand in the crystal she looked up and screamed.
"What is it, Kagome?" They turned her way and gasped.
Kagome pointed a shaking finger at the wall,"It-it's- It'sInuyasha!"
They all stared with opened mouths and soon thier eyes traced over the others. "I guess the girls were right,"whispered Miroku.
"Mazuki, please place the orb in it's rightful place."Adeth said in a misty voice.
She took the orb from Miroku and approached the tablet. She wasn't sure where to put it until she saw the same engravement in one of the holes that matched the orb. Slowly she let the orb slip into place and when it did, it glowed a shade of bright green.
Everyone watched with awe and Adeth stepped up to her,"Now you have to find the other ones. Good luck." Again they were swallowed by the light. Inuyasha and the others woke up, but Naori, Mazuki, and Kenta were still asleep.
"What do we do about them?" Inuyasha asked.
Miroku bent down to them,"I guess we could carry them and build camp. That must have worn them out." He bent down and picked up Mazuki,"Inuyasha, you can take Naori, Kagome can you take Kenta so Sango can carry the other boomerang."
Kagome nodded and picked up the boy and put him on her back asleep. Inuyasha took Naori on his and she gripped his kimono at the arms and evenly breathed in his ear. When she was asleep, she did remind him of Kagome, but looked more like him when she was awake. Miroku carried Mazuki in his arms with her head against his chest. She was a spitting image of Sango. Her face, hair, and posture was all Sango, but she had his eyes. Kenta reminded Miroku of Kohaku. He had deep brown eyes that you could almost see what he was thinking.
"There's an abandoned hut near by, we'll camp out there,"Inuyasha called.
When they got to it, Kagome pulled out a blanket from her bag and spread it on the floor. She laid Kenta down And Miroku and Inuyasha sat the others down, who continued to sleep.
Inuyasha and Miroku decided to have a walk to go talk in private. Sango and Kagome were on the front porch talking.
"I can't beleive me and Inuyasha have a kid," Kagome said.
"I know, I just hope that us being here and knowing the future won't change it,"said Sango,"I don't think they know how dangerous it can be."
"Sango, do you love Miroku?"
Sango's eyes got rounder and she blushed heavily,"Uh,I, I, don't really know. I've never had someone like Miroku to be so nice to me. In my old village, the men would make me feel I wasn't feminin enough, Miroku doesn't do that." She looked at the skies,"How about you? Do you love Inuyasha?"
Kagome looked at her feet with redness in her cheeks,"I've never felt like this for anyone before. I think I do love him, but he doesn't love me."
"I think you should rethink that seeing how your future kid is asleep in there." Sango smirked at her.
Sango was right. If Inuyasha didn't love her then he would not have given her a child. But what if he used her for his sexual pleasures and Naori was a mistake. Then again, Naori did say they were all happy so he might love her and she did remember what Naori said about Kikyo, but was it all true?
Kagome and Sango returned inside and Miroku and Inuyasha sat under one of the trees.
"I still can't get the thought of me and Sango together,"said Miroku with a smile.
"Whatever," hissed Inuyasha while he sat next to him.
"And what about you and Kagome?"
"What about us?"
"You guys have a little girl in the future, isn't it about time that you told Kagome your feelings?"
"I have no feelings for Kagome." He crossed his arms in his haori and turned his head.
"Then why is your kid asleep in the hut?"
He caught Inuyasha there. If he didn't love Kagome then he wouldn't have gotten her pregnant. But what about Kikyo? What happened to Kikyo? He did have feelings for her and strong ones, but he had a fat pride that held him from letting her know.
They walked back to the hut and sat down. When the guys and the girls were together they didn't talk much. Inuyasha spotted something coming out of Naori's kimono.
"Hey, what's that?" The others shrugged and Inuyasha carefully pulled it out.
It was wrapped in a cloth and when he undid it, paper fell out. On one of those paper things Inuyasha saw himself smiling.
"They're pictures,"said Kagome. She took them and the others gathered around her. On the first one was Naori with Kagome behind her with her arms draped around Naori's shoulders.
"Wow, Kagome you look great in the future,"said Sango.
The next was Miroku dancing with what looked like a three year old Mazuki. Her feet was on his. Then there was a picture with Sango pregnant and Miroku rubbing her stomach. Inuyasha holding baby Naori in his arms. Sango and Mazuki standing beside eachother in matching armor. Baby Kenta. One of Naori with curely pigtails. One with Inuyasha flexing his muscles and Naori copying him. Then there was one with both Inuyasha and Naori as humans in the newmoon night sky. But then there was one that had writing on the back. It said,'Daddies and the girls.' It was a picture of Inuyasha and Miroku back to back with Naori and Mazuki on thier chests, all were asleep. The last one was a group photo with Inuyasha with his arms draped over Kagome's who had her hand resting on Naori's shoulder. Then it was Shippo with Kilala and a new kitten that they didn't know. Miroku had his hand around Sango's waist and an arm around Mazuki's neck. They looked at the pictures, glowing redder eachtime.
Finally, they put them up and laid down. They didn't think they would get much sleep with so much in mind, but soon was drifting off. Kagome took one last look at them and then closed her eyes and fell asleep.
A/N: Okay, I bet you guys are like 'what's with this girl?' but I wrote it two years ago. Also you can see that in every chapter you can see there's a warning. It's going to be there in every chapter. See, I posted this fic on another website and got in trouble 'cause I forgot about the warnings and now I can't post anymore stories. Okay, but if you do not like hentai, don't read! R and R!
