A Feudal Era Adventure
Chapter 3
Kikyo walked silently towards her destination. She had sense new demons in the area. Their aura was unlike anything she had ever felt before. She decided that she's postpone her trip to find Naraku if these new demons might pose a threat. As she got closer to where she felt the power, she noticed that a very familiar person was there as well…
'What is going on here? Why are you with them? Why are you giving refuge to these demons? Do you trust them sister? What is their purpose here? I hope they didn't do any damage to the village…' Kikyo looked up to see the outlines of the village where she was heading… and a very familiar face.
'Inuyasha…'
----------
Inuyasha and the others sat at Kaede's hut, silently sat, with nothing more to do. It wasn't long before Hiei walked into the hut, since he was sitting in a tree outside, and announced, "Is it normal to have the living dead walking around here?"
"Is it another band of seven?" Miroku asked, automatically alert.
"If one of them is a woman dressed in white and red, with long black hair and carries a bow and arrow…" Hiei left his description there. There was a thick silence in the hut.
"It couldn't be…" Inuyasha muttered.
"Go Inuyasha…" Kagome forced out, with her head down, hair shadowing her eyes.
"… Forgive me..." With that, Inuyasha sprinted out of the hut, leaving confused Reikai Tantei behind, and sadden shard collectors.
"Ok… What just happened…?" Yusuke asked.
"It's just someone who is… close to Inuyasha." Sango said.
"Can't we know?" Kemiko asked.
"How can we be sure that we can trust you?"
"Ok fine! You don't have to tell us." Kemiko smiled.
"Maybe if you tell us why he…" Miroku pointed to Yusuke, "Got so depressed the other day, and we'll tell you what's up with Inuyasha."
The Reikai Tantei sat silently looking at Yusuke, who shrugged, not showing any emotion on his face but his eyes told it all. He lied down and rolled over, putting his back to them.
"Yusuke… are you ok?" Kemiko asked.
"I'm fine." He snapped, a bit harsher than intended. "I don't care what you tell them."
"Yusuke… you know we wouldn't do anything to hurt you…" Hirina said.
"I said I DON'T CARE!"
"Yusuke! Calm down!" Kurama said.
"Fuck you, flower boy."
"URAMESHI!" Kuwabara started.
"Shut up you bewildered vat of fresh ape puke." (LMAO! I got that from ebaumsworld)
"Yusuke. Come on! Don't be so mean!" Mika scolded.
"Why don't you suck an egg you annoying bag of rancid rodent droppings." (Give props to ebaumsworld) Mika blinked.
"Hn. This is pointless." Hiei scoffed.
"So are you, you ugly crock of putrid maggot brains." (Need I say where it came from?)
Kemiko was feed up now. She got up and stormed over to him. "Yusuke… look at me."
Yusuke whirled around and glared, "What!"
SLAP
Everyone stared in shock. Yusuke's head snapped to the side. Kemiko glared at him.
"Yusuke, I already told you to at least TRY and get over it! I know it hurts but you can't take it out on everybody else!" Kemiko yelled. Tears filled Yusuke's eyes. He closed his eyes, trying to force them back but a couple escaped anyways. "I know you loved her. I know you've been with her for most of your life but this was your destiny. It hurt her to Yusuke. Just try and take your heart back. She gave your ring back, so take your heart back with it…"
Yusuke stayed silent, more tears falling from his eyes. Kemiko's eyes softened as she knelt before him and wrapped her arms around his shaking form. Hirina got up and walked over to the two and patted his back. "We're here with you Yusuke…" Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kagome looked on in wonder and shock.
"His first love…" Mika started, catching all their attention. "She was with him throughout all of the hardships. For years they were together. They were meant to be married soon… but Yusuke was sent here… without any guaranty that he would return... and she left. She walked out of his life."
"Oh… my…" Kagome started.
"Well. What about Inuyasha?" Kurama asked curiously.
"That woman is Kikyo; his ex. Naraku tricked them into betraying each other, killing Kikyo in the process and putting Inuyasha in and eternal slumber. That's when I came in and freed him." Kagome said sadly.
"Why are you so sad?" Kemiko asked, still holding Yusuke.
Kagome remained silent.
"You love him don't you…?" Mika asked. Kagome tensed.
"That doesn't explain why she's here or why we wants forgiveness for leaving." Hiei pointed out irritably.
"She was resurrected and Inuyasha can see when he leaves it hurts Kagome." Shippo said.
"Hn."
----------
"K...Kikyo…" Inuyasha muttered upon seeing the woman he once loved, and probably still do.
"Inuyasha… why do you house with those demons?" Kikyo asked, her eyes fixed upon Inuyasha's golden ones.
"Because…" Inuyasha hesitated but replied as his looks darkened, "I can't defeat them. They promised to help us find the jewel shards, if they can have them at the end. I told them they couldn't get it and they agreed. I don't know what their true purpose is but I will only trust them for the time being. I will try me hardest to defeat them if they betray us."
"But I sense 7 of them. Surely you cannot defeat them all…"
"…I know… but I must try. Miroku was the only one of us that made progress when our first fight came."
"Miroku? That monk?"
"Yes. He was thwarted when his staff was used against him."
"… This is complicated. How do you know they are not incarnations of Naraku."
"For one thing they were from the future. They were from Kagome's time. Another thing is that they have no scent of Naraku, nor do they bear a spider mark on their backs…"
"How are you certain?"
"The men took a bath yesterday and no mark was found. Trust me, we looked. The girls would have announced if they found anything."
"… I recommend you watch them. Get to know everything you can about them. And don't get attached Inuyasha."
"Feh! Like I'd get attached to things like that!"
"You only say that now. I warn you Inuyasha. Be weary of them" With that, Kikyo turned and walked back in the direction she originally came from. Inuyasha watched her go with saddened eyes. He turned and walked back to the hut. Upon sensing the dense tension in the room, he looked at everyone. He noticed that Yusuke and Kemiko weren't there. Hiei wasn't there either but hey, the midget never was there.
"Hey… where'd the other two go?" He asked and sat down.
"They just needed to… get out for a while." Miroku said.
"Feh."
----------
Kemiko stood, her arms wrapped around Yusuke, as he tried to get all his pain out. She rested her head on his shoulder and held him close. Yusuke sighed and chuckled a little. Kemiko blinked.
"What's so funny?" She asked looking at his tear streaked face.
"I just… can't believe I had to put you through all of this…" He said, unconsciously running his fingers through her hair. The onlooker in the shadows felt their anger rise at the sight.
"But… I want to say thank you…" Yusuke added. "Thank you for helping me. You and everyone else. Mika is particular. You two really helped me the most."
Kemiko smiled. "Don't worry about it. What are friends for?"
Yusuke chuckled. "Right." He took her hands, leaned in, and much to her surprise, kissed her on the cheek. He smirked at her red face and walked back to the hut. The onlooker however was having a battle with themselves.
He watched Kemiko touch her cheek, and smile slightly before running to catch up with Yusuke who messed with her by patting her on the head and called her a "pretty kitty." The thoughts and emotions that raged in the watchers heart was not once shone on his face.
'Why am I feeling this? I love her but… I… don't… feel angry anymore. I was angered for a minute and then… all the anger just washed away… But why?' A face appeared in his mind. A certain blond/brown haired girl. 'No… I can't… I…' The figure stopped his train of thoughts and growled. He just hated emotions. The figure flitted way from his hiding spot and into an area where he could gather his thoughts.
Emotions are just a worthless piece of shit to Hiei ya know. And these feelings were really pissing him off.
----------
Ok chap end! So… it seems as if Mika need help. Ok Mika, what would you ask if EVRYONE was staring at you?
Here's a hint for the other one. Yusuke is being noisy. What would they tell him?
Ok and Yokobue wasn't really one you needed to translate but thanks anyways. I know I could have just said flute, but Yokobue sounded cooler. Lol.
I will give you more time to solve the translations…. Seeing as nobody read other than my two friends and Red Kitsune Flames.
