Chapter Sixteen: WHAT?
Kagome and Inuyasha quickly made their way toward the mountain. Surprisingly, Koga showed up after 20 minutes of running and said he'd help look and also that he wanted to kill the Bird of Paradise.
"What about your family?" Kagome asked him while piggy-backing on Inuyasha.
Koga shrugged and ran beside her "They're fine. They woke up and acted as if nothing happened. I sent them off to help look for Amaya."
Inuyasha mumbled something and they continued on.
------------------
Amaya got up and brushed off her kimono of some leaves and glared at the new comer.
"Who the hell are you?" Amaya asked dangerously to the wolf. Takashi frowned and crossed his arms, looking annoyed.
The wolf smiled and she too crossed her arms. She had long light brown hair with flowers in it. She hadn't bothered to pull her hair up, so it hung low and blew in the breeze. She had blue eyes and her outfit was similar to Ayame's.
"My name is Lorai. I'm the daughter of Koga and Ayame." She replied, staring Amaya in the eye, "and you are…?"
Takashi replied first, "I'm Takashi. I'm the son of Miroku the monk and Sango the demon slayer. Why did you push down my companion just now?"
Lorai ignored him and said again, "and you are?" While looking at Amaya.
"I'm Amaya." She replied, not liking this wolf's attitude, "I'm the daughter of Kagome Higurashi and Inuyasha…."
Lorai's eyes widened and she began to laugh. She laughed so hard that she clutched her sides.
"Really?" she exclaimed, still laughing, "you're a daughter of a half demon?"
Amaya grimaced and looked away. Takashi noticed that she seemed uncomfortable and he stepped in front of her, glaring at Lorai.
"Like I asked before, why did you push Amaya down?" Takashi asked.
Lorai stopped laughing and looked him straight in the eye, "I didn't like her scent. It smelled like bad eggs. But, I guess since she's Inuyasha's daughter, that's to be suspected…" and she began to laugh again.
Takashi scowled and he grabbed Amaya's hand and took her away as Lorai fell to the ground rolling with laughter.
"I can't believe her!" Amaya exclaimed when they were far away from Lorai, "What a jerk! How can people even be so cruel? So what if Inuyasha's half demon and I'm …one third demon?"
Takashi smiled at her and tightened his hold on Amaya's hand, "You shouldn't care what she thinks. She was brought up by Koga, what do you think? My parents told me about him and how he hated Inuyasha because he was half demon, and of course because Kagome loved Inuyasha instead of him…"
Amaya grinned and chuckled, "Serves him right. But he did act nice when I met him earlier…"
Takashi frowned, "You're lucky he didn't kill you. I heard he's blood thirsty…"
Amaya shrugged. After walking awhile without knowing where to go, Takashi suggested they head back to her house, just in case someone was there waiting. Amaya agreed and they carried on.
-------------------
"Wonder what that was about?" Sango asked as she ad Miroku rode to Kagome's and Inuyasha's house on Kirara, "I wonder what Kagura and Kanna are doing?"
Miroku sighed, "Just some more stuff we need to take care of. And I was hoping that once Naraku was gone, we wouldn't have to fight any more, but I guess I was wrong…"
Sango nodded, "Let's just hope Amaya didn't get herself into any trouble…"
It didn't take them long to arrive back at the house. Kirara landed down smoothly next to the pond and Sango and Miroku got off. As they did so, Kirara transformed back into her cute little kitty self. Sango and Miroku made their way inside in hopes Amaya would be back, but she was not. So, both of them sat down on a cushion together. Without thinking, Miroku and Sango starting kissing and were soon on the floor. Clothes suddenly flew up in the air and moaning could be heard. They didn't even notice Amaya and Takashi coming inside….
--------------------
At last, Kagome, Inuyasha, and Koga made it to the Birds of Paradise nest. Inuyasha sniffed around could not smell Amaya's scent at all.
"Doesn't seem like she's here." Inuyasha said, crestfallen. He walked over to a feather on the ground and picked it up. He sniffed it. The only smell he could smell was bird crap.
"I guess the birds didn't take her here after all…" Kagome said, scouting the area with Koga.
Koga sighed, "Oh well" he said, "We can still kill the damn birds." As Koga clenched his fists, ready for battle, Lorai suddenly appeared in a cloud of wind and dust.
"Father!" She exclaimed, stopping before him, "What are you doing here?" she spotted Kagome and Inuyasha and frowned, "What are you doing with them? Where's mother?"
Koga frowned, "What are you doing here? I told you to help find Amaya! Ayame is too!"
Lorai shrugged, "Oh!" she said, "I did find her. She was with a guy named Takashi over in this village. They were really mean to me so I left. I completely forgot about what you asked me to do, sorry." However, she did not look sorry at all.
"Besides" she continued, "you told me to stay away from those that give demons a bad name. Like Inuyasha for example, yet here you are with him!"
Inuyasha growled, "WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST SAY?" he put his hand on tetsusaiga's handle.
Lorai chuckled putting her hands on her hips, "I'm not afraid of you!" and she stuck out her tongue.
Koga sighed and dropped his head, annoyed, "Why don't you go find Ayame and tell her the search is off and go home?"
Lorai nodded reluctantly, "Fine!" and she left abruptly.
"She seems…interesting..:" Kagome said with a scowl, "I can't believe you are teaching her to hate half demons!"
Koga took a step back, "I have not! She's just…crazy! She doesn't know what she's talking about!"
Inuyasha grinned, "Yea, sure. We believe you…" and he rolled his eyes, making his way to the nest in front of them, "I guess we'll fight these things. We know now that Amaya is safe. Or at least somewhat safe. I just hope that Miroku's boy won't do anything stupid…"
"That's enough Inuyasha." Kagome said, following him, "Takashi is a nice boy…"
"Is this really important right now?" Koga asked, as 5 birds suddenly appeared before them.
Kagome took out her bow and began shooting arrows. Inuyasha took out tetsusaiga and Koga started to scratch the hell out of the birds with his claws. After they killed them all, the strangest thing happened. It was as if someone had turned on a very bright light. Kagome shielded her eyes and Inuyasha squinted trying to see around him. All he could see was Kagome and Koga both covering their eyes.
All at once, it ended. Kagome opened her eyes and looked around. What she saw made her gasp. Inuyasha and Koga looked different. They looked like it was 16 years ago again. Koga looked like his old self and so did Inuyasha! Kagome looked down at herself and sure enough, she was wearing her old High School uniform! It was as if she was 19 again!
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?" Inuyasha shouted out, after he noticed too. Koga gasped and did a three sixty as if he was trying to spin ahead in time.
"This is pretty freaky…" He said after spinning around and not accomplishing anything.
"What are we going to do? We're 16 years younger!" Kagome exclaimed, totally freaking out, "What will happen to Amaya?"
"She doesn't exist. Nor does Lorai." Koga said, "I wonder what the heck is going on…"
Kagome suddenly thought of something, "That means I'm going to have to get pregnant! Again!"
"That's not all, guess whose back?" Inuyasha asked the two with a frown, "Naraku."
"That's not all." Kagome continued, "Kikyo too…"
All three sighed and fell to the ground in confusion.
------------
After a moment, Sango let go of Miroku and looked around. She had heard Amaya and Takashi approaching. Miroku looked up too but at that very moment, the bright light appeared and both Takashi and Amaya disappeared. Surprisingly, both Miroku and Sango had blinked at that very moment, and they noticed nothing. They both shrugged and got back to work.
End of ChapterO.o, I had the weirdest dream thing happen the other day. I had a dream about an earthquake (which, in fact, is the first time I can remember ever having one about an earthquake) and the next day my dad said there was an earthquake that night and I had no idea! It was freaky. But then again, my body could have felt it as I slept and my subconscious was telling me about it through a dream. That happened to me once when I went to Texas. Me and my dad were staying at a hotel and the fire alarm accidentally went off and my dad said it woke him up and it was really loud and it had kept going on and off for a half an hour. Me, however, just slept on not knowing. Yet, I had a dream that a stupid alarm kept sounding and in my dream I was yelling SHUT UP ALREADY! I'M TRYING TO DO MY HOMEWORK, or something like that…Lol, I'm rambling again…sorry! Please review me! And many thanks to those who do!
