(Modern times woods outside of Bayville)
"Damn tree! Now hold still," Azumi yelled, holding the blade above Sabretooth's head and then brought it down as Sabretooth rolled out the way in just in time. "Ah, shit!"
"RRRRR! Bitch this isn't over! I'll be back for you," Sabretooth growled, running off into the thick, green forest away for Azumi and Kirara. "Mark my words!"
"Bastard, I'll be waiting for you when you do return and I will kill you when you do!" Azumi yelled after him, climbing onto Kirara's back and started moving back to the fortress.

(Elemental Fortress)
"Aunt Azumi, how did it go," Miroku asked, running up to Azumi and Kirara. "Did you get him? Huh? Did ya?"
"Yeah, did you get him," Sango asked, running up behind to Miroku.
"I ran him off that's all I did. I thought he was an average human but it ended up being one of those mutants," Azumi said, removing her filter mask and then scratched her nose. "And he was strong too. He put up a good fight."
"Azumi, you're bleeding! Let me look at that," Shippou said, looking at the bloody torn fabric on Azumi's shoulder. "How deep is it?"
"I'm fine it's just a few scratches they'll be healed by tomorrow. I can't say the same for the intruder though. I cut the bottom half of his right arm off. I'm going to get dressed for bed it's getting late." Azumi said, getting off Kirara and started to walk inside her hut. "Goodnight you guys."
"Speaking of sleep it past your bed time you two," Shippou said, looking at the two kids that where petting Kirara. "Now let's get you in two bed."
"But, Uncle Shippou, we're not tired," Sango said, rubbing her dropping eyes. "Honestly we're not."
"I can smell that you two are sleepy and you're going to bed." Shippou said, pointing to the siblings' hut as the two kids ran towards the hut. "Now! Let move it come on you two."

(Xavier Institution dinner time)
"Hey! Guys, dinner's ready," Kitty yelled, from the dinning room. "C'mon down at eat!"
"Man. I'm not eating anything that she cooked. It's probably contaminated," Evan said, walking down the steps beside Rogue, Jean, and Scott. "She a cooking hazard I swear."
BAMPH!
"I heard zat Kagome vas helping her," Kurt said, porting in behind everyone on the steps. "Zo, maybe I von't be zat bad."
"Oh, that's right Kagome was coming today, wasn't she," Jean asked, looking at Kurt. "I totally for her."
"So, you have already met her," Scott asked as they stepped off the stairs and started towards the dinning room.
"What's she like?" Evan asked, looking at Kurt.
"She's ok and real easy on ze (the) eyes. If you now vhat I mean." Kurt said as everyone walked into the dinning room. "She really pretty."
"Hurry, you guys! I've been working on my cooking and I want you to try my new cream potatoes," Kitty said as everyone sat down in their seats as Logan, Ororo, and Xavier came in and found their own place. "And I think I got it this time."
"Kitty, where's Kagome? I still haven't met her," Xavier said, looking at Kitty put her cream potatoes on everybody's plate that were so gooey that they stuck to scoop and left a stringy mess as she pulled the scoop away.
"She's in the kitchen. She'll be out in minute," Kitty said, putting the cream potatoes on Rogue's plate. "She was helping me cook."
"Nothin' is goin' to make me eat this," Rogue said, sticking a fork into the potatoes and pull back taking with it the plate it. "Ya still can't cook can ya?"
"Oh, man. I knew this stuff was contaminated," Evan said, pushing the plate away from him. "I wouldn't be surprised if it starting moving."
"Well, I didn't say you HAD to eat it, ya know," Kitty said, putting some potatoes on Xavier's plate as Kagome walked in. "I follow the recipe in the book."
"Kitty, give me that! Here! This is consumable! Geez… She cooks worse than anyone else I know," Kagome said, taking the bad of bowl of potatoes and handed her the good batch, as Kitty stood there dumbfounded. "No just l-look at me! MOVE!"
"She said that was consumable." Logan translated, looking at Kitty's blank face. "And think she wants you hand it out."
"MOVE! MOVE! Kami, only knows how much food I have to redo so it can be eaten. No good cook,": Kagome said, storming back into the kitchen covered in food from the top of her head to the toes of her shoes. She wore at her hair back with a bandana over her head, and a long apron along with a pare of jeans and baby blue T-shirt.
"Someone agree with me," Evan said, getting a wicked glare for Kitty as she passed around the better batch of potatoes. "Finally!"
"Will you shut up," Kitty snapped.
"What was all that about," Scott asked, looking at Logan.
"I'll tell you later." Logan said, taking a sip of his tea.
"So, that was Miss Higurashi. She seems nice," Xavier said, looking at the more edible cream potatoes that Kitty started to pass around.
"Oh, she is! If you can over look her temper," Kitty said, nodding her head. "She really has a sweet—"
BOOOOM!
"KITTYYYY!" Kagome yelled, from behind the closed kitchen door.
"Oopsy! Uh… Uh, I'll be right back," Kitty said, running towards the kitchen but stopped when the door flew open and a ticked Kagome appeared, with her arms crossed, covered from head to foot in a thick, gooey dough like paste, dripping off her body, walked out staring one hell of death glare at Kitty.
"KITTY," Kagome said through her teeth, trying not to yell at Kitty again but did not succeed. "YOU BIG TROUBLE!"
"Sorry," Kitty said, backing a way some from Kagome.
"She said, sorry" Logan translated, looking at Kagome.
"Sorry she says! Tell her if she is truly 'sorry' she'll go in there in clean that up while I pass out the rest of the food," Kagome hissed, staring back at Logan. "Kitty kitchen!"
"Kitty, Kagome says to clean up the mess in the kitchen while she handles the food," Logan said, looking at back at Kitty. "You better get moving, Half Pint."
"Okay," Kitty said, slinking passed Kagome to get into the kitchen soon followed by Kagome.
"Was it me or did the air in here take a sudden eerie chill when Kagome walked in with that glare," Jean asked, staring at the closed kitchen door.
"If that was you I must be feeling sympathy chills," Scott said, looking at the kitchen door as well.

(Magneto's hideout)
"I see you have returned empty handed and I don't mean that as a type of pun. What happed," Magneto asked, seeing Sabretooth's arm wrapped up in thick bandages where the bottom part of his arm used to be not to mention the bandages all over his head. "I can't believe you let someone do that to you."
"Why didn't you tell that place was guarded," Sabretooth barked, glaring at Magneto. "You could have gotten me killed!"
"How many were there," Magneto asked, ignoring that little bit, leaning forward in his seat.
"One girl and her enormous pet cat RR," Sabretooth growled, looking down at his feet for getting beaten up one girl. " A really big cat."
"You got beat by a girl and her pet cat. What a pathetic piece of shit you are," Magneto said, looking at Sabretooth. "I figured you could handle something so simple."
"She had to have been a mutant of some type. She had long, white hair, dog-ears, and sharp claws. She had enough strength to knock me back about 10 feet or more." Sabretooth said as Magneto stood up in a huff.
"That is enough! I don't want to know about how you failed to retrieve the demon! But I just found something that might help you figure out who she was. This is an old Indian's tail. It talks about the tomb of the demon being guarded by other demons called the Elementals. A dog spirit, a wolf spirit, a fox spirit, a cat spirit, the living dead, the man of the void, and the shadow warrior.
"There was also a little human girl that grew up with them, which the dog spirit fell in love with. Apparently they also had a kid that resembled some of the dog part from her father's side. They do not give the names of these demons but I believe you ran into the half-breed. If she has that much power we are going to have to figure out a plain to get the Elementals away from the tomb," Magneto said, looking through more of the book in his hand.
"Magneto, I did the spying you wanted me to do. Now I want you leave my son out this!" Mystique said, storming into the room setting down her photos and report. "And is that everything you wanted me to do?"
"You're job is still not done, Mystique. I want you to keep watching them. What information did you pick up from the Xavier Institution," Magneto asked, looking at Mystique's angry face before picking the folder on his desk.
"The girl you had arranged to come here from Japan is here. It seems the high school feared for her life and has her staying with X-Men." Mystique said, looking at Sabretooth missing hand. "That will mess your plain right?"
"That figures. As long as she goes to the high school and my son does what he assigned to do I still may get my demon," Magneto said, with a faint smile on his lips. "And will be able to get rid of those X-Men once and for all."
"What is the girl for," Mystique asked, looking back at Magneto. "Why do you need her so badly?"
"She is miko, a Shinto Priestess. One of high quality. She will be able to release the demon without much trouble not to mention send the other demons to hell where they belong," Magneto said, setting the book down on his desk. "She is stronger than she looks and don't want to loose her."
"Then why did you send me after the demon if she is the only one that can release him," Sabretooth asked, looking at Magneto. "You could have kill me out there!"
"I was hoping that I wouldn't have to use her if you could have done it. I didn't want to risk the X-men figuring out my plains and protect her more. Now it's up to my son to get that priestess," Magneto said, glaring at Sabretooth. "Even if she is staying with my son will be able to work his way into her heart."

(two days later Bayville High School)
"Pietro! What are you doing here! I though you and your friends got kicked out of here," Kitty said, seeing Pietro lean back in his desk with his feet up. "So, like, what you don't back here?"
"Father got me back in here. Pretty cool, huh? Though I would rather be outta here doing something worth more of my time," Pietro said, throwing a side-glance at Kitty's surprised face. "Books and homework are stupid if you ask me and not worth my time. But it's my old man's orders."
"Your father is making you go to school," Kitty asked just to clarify what she heard was correct.
"Yeah, my Father! You got a problem with that X-geek," Pietro said in his normal cocky tone, sitting up at his desk with his feet now on the ground. "'Cuz if you do we can settle this right her, pussy!"
"N-no! It's fine," Kitty said, finding her seat at her desk as the teacher walked in to tell the class about the new student. He will never change. He will always be a major jerk!
Damn X-Men always getting into someone else's business. I hope this girl that I'm suppose woo is pretty or it's going to be hard on my part. With my luck the girl is probably fat, stupid, hot tempered…
"Everyone I would like you to met our new exchange student from Japan…"
…talkative, a shop-o-holic, and…
"…Kagome Higurashi."
…Damn HOT! WHOA! Now THAT'S what I call a WOMAN, Pietro scream mentally, leaning forward is his seat with his eyes wide open, scanning Kagome's body from her face, down and back up again. WHOA! On second thought school doesn't seem so bad.
"You may take your seat," The teacher said, as Kagome looked for a seat. She saw a seat beside Kitty that was also behind the gawking Pietro. Kagome quickly made her way down the row and sat down. Pietro was still staring with large eyes.
"Hi, I'm Kagome," Kagome said, looking a Pietro, who's mouth was hanging open. "What your name?"
"I-I-I'm P… Pie… P-Piet…" Pietro stammered, unable to even say his name. Geez… I can't even talk the girl!
"Ano," Kagome asked, looking at the baka in front of her.
"He's Pietro. Don't pay any mind to him the man's a jerk," Kitty said, looking at the dumbstruck, silver haired mutant, sitting just diagonal to her. "Always has been and always will be."
"Pi-e-tro… Pietro…" Kagome said, sounding out the mutant's name. "Pietro easy say."
"Snap out of it stupid! Y-yeah, that's me! Pleasure to m-meet y-you," Pietro said, putting his hand out to Kagome but never took his eyes off her beautiful face as she reached for his hand and shook it. "S-so you're from J-Japan, huh?"
"Hey! How do you know how to speak Japanese," Kitty asked, looking at Pietro in surprise. "I didn't think you had enough brain cells to learn any thing."
"Shuddup! Father made me learn it," Pietro barked, giving a Kitty an annoyed look. "So there, pussy cat!"
"Humph!" Kitty huffed, crossing her arms and looked the other way. "Jerk!"
"Uh, can you let go of my hand now," Kagome asked, looking at her hand still firmly wrapped in Pietro's fingers. "You're kind of hurting me."
"Ano? Oh, sorry. So, uh, how long are you planning to stay here in America," Pietro asked, looking into her eyes.
"I guess until the end of the school year. I just got here a few days ago. It's been great except having to help Kitty with the cooking but other than that it's been pretty fun," Kagome said, throwing a quick glance at Kitty.
"Hahaha! I had heard Kitty was a hazard when it came to cooking," Pietro said with a smile, folding his arms on the back of desk seat and then rested his chin on his arms. "For some reason I can definitely see her blowing up something! Hahaha!"
"She already has and she a catastrophe on two legs. Her cream potatoes ended up being like rubber cement. Don't ask me how she did it but she did. Her heart is in the right place but her cooking is totally misplaced," Kagome said with small smile, looking at the brunet beside her.
"Yeah, uh, what are you doing this weekend," Pietro asked, straitening up some with his back against the table part of the desk. "I just want to know if you busy or not."
"Oh, nothing. Why," Kagome asked, throwing a curious yet sly look at Pietro. Is he hitting on me? He must be. He has to be. I know he is.
"Well, I uh, was wondering if you and I could go see a movie," Pietro said, turning a slight pink in the face as he scratched the side of his head, looking down at Kagome's desk.
:"Well, uh… Ha! I know it but what Inuyasha… Come on stupid it's going to long time from now before you see Inuyasha again. But if the well remains blocked… I may never see him. Okay. Where do you want to meet," Kagome asked, nodding her head.
"At the theaters. I'll give you directions tomorrow. The bells about to ring in about… 3. 2. 1."
RIIIIING
"Bye, Pietro," Kagome said, picking up her things.
"Come on, Kagome, we got to meet Jean in the hallway! She'll take you to your next class," Kitty said, grabbing Kagome's hand and ran out the door. I wonder what those to were talking about. Pietro face sure turned a shade of pink. Could he have asked Kagome to go… Nah! That would never happen.
Well, Father ought to be happy. Soon I can get rid of her and look for someone else. The girl's hot and is my type. I mean not my type! Why did I just think that? I have a job to do! I can't fall in love with her! Hmmm? But there is something about her that a can't put my finger on. Something in Kagome's eyes that just seemed so loving, so warm, and so— …familiar, Pietro thought, walking to his locker and got his books out for his next class.
