"How's your side, Kagome?!" Xavier asked, looking at Kagome bleeding side, which she was holding.
"It hurts a lot! [Why did she have to haul off and bite me there again?!]" Kagome said, looking at Xavier bending forward a bit with her face twisted in pain.
"What do you mean again? Have your run into them before?!" Xavier asked, looking at Kagome.
"Hey!" Kagome snapped, looking at him.
"That's what I've wanted to know! The one she called Yura said that she and someone else were the ones that killed them in the first place!" Scott said, looking Xavier and then Kagome.
"Can't we talk about this later?!" Kagome snapped as Mistress Centipede appeared out to the ground in her full-length still smoke a little.
"I have had enough of you, troublesome child!! I'll kill you!!" Mistress Centipede yelled, charging at Kagome who stood up strait held up her bow, pulled an arrow out of her quiver, and then threaded it onto the bow's cord.
"Oh, yeah! I've had enough of you biting me in the side of my stomach, you old hag! Hama no Ya!!" Kagome yelled, shooting an arrow of ki at Mistress Centipede.
{Present time}
The arrow flew towards Mistress Centipede. The arrow struck her head that seemed to explode with ki. Kagome knew Mistress Centipede knew being a ghost would pull herself back together.
"Now's our chance! Run before she pulls herself back together!" Kagome yelled, running away from Mistress Centipede followed by everyone else.
"And where to do you think you're going?!" Yura yelled, sending a wall of hair at them.
"ASHEN SALT!!" Kagome yelled, throwing more powder at the hairs but only some burned away.
"Kagome what is that's burning?" Kitty asked, looking in front of the to see Kagome pull an arrow out of her quiver.
"Hama no Ya!!" Kagome yelled, firing an arrow at the hairs this time getting rid of all of them.
"OOOO!! I can't stand you, girl! Mistress Centipede, get over here!" Yura yelled, looking down at Kagome and then to Mistress Centipede who just pulled herself back together.
[Think Kagome! How did those two get back here! There's got to be some way that they found to get back into the living world?! But how?! They're not like Kikyou, they're just spirits. (gasp) What's that? I feel something! That's it! Of course that has to bee it!] Kagome thought, looking over towards an old tree and then thought about something from her first meeting with Yura.
{Flashback}
"Baka! Wasting your time..." Yura sneered, standing on top of pile of skulls as she looked down at a fallen Inu-Yasha who also lays on a pile of skulls looking up at a mangled Yura.
"What... ARE you... [And how can I stop a witch like this?!]" Inu-Yasha asked, glare up angrily at Yura who started to charge at him with.
"I'm IMMORTAL!! !" Yura yelled as sword her sword swung on a long piece of hair, strait for Inu-Yasha but then she felt a shock of energy run through her.
"This is it. This skull... The hairs coming from it are tied to Yura's hand!" Kagome said, kneeling on the ground, holding the skull as she drove an arrow through the top.
"Girl...You're dead!" Yura yelled, sending her blade at Kagome who looked on in fear as the sword came closer.
Kagome then closed her eyes and drove the arrow deeper into the skull. Kagome's eyes opened and saw the skull crack up revealing a red, little comb, which she soon sent the arrow tip through creating a small crack.
"A comb!!" Inu-Yasha said in amazement as Kagome drove the arrow tip into it deeper, chattering it into piece as Yura's sword stop short and fell.
Yura has this look of fear and shock as she slowly started to disappear into the air. Her body soon disappears leaving only her clothes and the Shikon shard. Kagome looked down at the sword that was ment for her lay on the ground. Inu-Yasha rolled over on his stomach to see Yura vanish.
"So, Yura... You hid your soul in a comb. No wonder nothing I did to your body hurt you..." Inu-Yasha said to himself.
{End flashback}
"(SNAP) I have it! That has to be it! It just has to be!" Kagome said, snapping her fingers and started running towards the tree.
"Kagome, vhat are you doing?!" Kurt asked, looking at Kagome run towards a tree.
"I have an idea! I need you to distract them! All of you!" Kagome yelled, looking at Kurt.
"Vell, you heard her!" Kurt said, looking at everyone else.
"Right!" Everyone said, nodding their heads.
"Hey, bug breath! Over here!" Evan yelled, throw spikes at Mistress Centipede.
"Damn you, child!" Mistress Centipede hissed, turning to look at Evan as his spikes shot at her.
"Hey, ugly lady over here!" Kurt yelled, making a funny at Yura.
"You should talk, you little fuzzy ball!" Yura yelled, sending her blade on a strand of hair at Kurt.
"You're zo slow!" Kurt smirked, porting out path of the blade and right above Yura.
"What the...?! EEEE! Why you!" Yura yelled, nearly falling of her hair as Kurt ported quickly into face scaring her.
"Get back here, bastard!" Mistress Centipede yelled, chasing after Evan.
"Back off!" Scott said, lifting up his sunglasses shooting a beam of energy at Mistress Centipede.
"Uh! I've had it with you all!!" Mistress Centipede yelled, now charging at Scott.
"You haven't had it yet!" Ororo yelled, sending a tornado at Mistress Centipede.
"STOP IT!! Stop cutting my hair net, mortal!" Yura yelled, Logan went around blindly cutting hairs wherever he felt hair cut him.
"Come and catch me!!" Jean said, flying around Yura to get her mind of Logan.
"Get out of my face!" Yura yelled, trying to cut Jean with her sword but Jean ducked and dodged every time.
"I'm almost there! Just a little more! Finally! Now feel for it. There it is!" Kagome said, pulling an arrow out of her quiver and started to chip away at the small opening in the tree.
"Look! What has she found over there?" Kitty asked as she and Rogue stayed over by Xavier.
"Beats me." Rogue said, scratching the back of her head.
"She found the items that brought us these spirits she trying to get at them." Xavier said, look at Kagome.
"C'mon, c'mon! Almost there! Now say goodbye you two! You're going back to hell!" Kagome yelled, sending ki into the arrow tip, destroying one crystal and then the other one right beside it.
"SKREEEEE!!" Mistress Centipede screamed as she started to glow and then vanish.
"No! Not again! AAAAAAA!!" Yura yelled, doing the same, taking her hair with her.
"Phew! I'm glad that's over." Kagome said, falling to ground on her butt in exhaustion, rubbing the sweat off her brow with the back of her hand.
"All right! She did it! Yay!" Kitty said, jumping up and down.
"Way to go, kid!" Logan called to her.
"Zat vas a amazing!" Kurt yelled, running over to her.
"Great work, Kagome!" Jean said, waving to her as Kagome turned around and waved back before falling on her back to exhausted to even sit up any more.
"Is she alright?" Ororo asked, looking Xavier.
"Yes, she just really tired. As we all are." Xavier said, looking at Ororo.
"Sun's already comin' up. There goes da shopping trip. We've stayed up all night and got no sleep." Rogue said, looking toward to east as the orange sunlight started to hit the very top of the trees.
"Kagome, are you asleep?" Kurt asked, looking down at Kagome as Evan and Scott ran up.
"ZZZZZZ..."
"Well, I guess that answers that. Let's get her inside." Scott said as he and Kurt picked her up.
"Hey, look at this, guys. This is what Kagome was trying to get at, I bet." Evan said, pointing at the crystal pieces in the knothole.
"So it would seem. Let's get her inside so we can bandage up this wound in her side." Scott said, walk over to the group with Kagome on his back.
{9 hours later}
"Mnn... Ow. Huh?" Kagome moaned, waking up in her room, looking up to see Jean and Kitty on either side of her.
"Well, good morning." Jean said, handing Kagome a glass of water.
"Thank you. How long have I been (yawn) asleep?" Kagome yawned, rubbing her eye and then drank a bit of her water.
"About nine hours." Jean said, taking the cup back from Kagome.
"Like how's your side?" Kitty asked, looking down at the covers where Kagome's hurt side is.
"Well, it hurts. Hurts a lot." Kagome said, looking at Kitty.
"It's nice to see you awake." Xavier said, coming to Kagome's room followed by Logan as Kitty and Jean left.
"Yeah." Kagome said, watching Xavier come up beside her.
"Kagome, I want to asked you about how you knew who those spirits were? They knew and you knew them. Quite well it would seem. They mentioned something about you and a someone else killing them. It this true?" Xavier asked, look at Kagome close her eyes and made a face as if to say, "why me?"
"Do you really have to know?" Kagome asked, opening one eye to look at Xavier.
"I really, really need to know." Xavier said, looking down at Kagome as she gave out of sigh, giving in.
"All right. Yes, me and one of my friends killed them. They were demons that ment to kill me and him. Mistress Centipede wanted this jewel I had. Yura wanted my friend's hair and the jewel. Both of them tried to kill us so we killed them." Kagome said, putting her hands behind her head on the pillow.
"That's it?" Xavier asked, looking skeptically at her, knowing she was keeping more than she was telling.
"Well, no. But that's the basic plot of the whole thing." Kagome said, looking at her feet under the covers.
"Basic plot. Hmmm... Well, ok. Then what is that jewel they were after?" Xavier asked, looking at Kagome.
"The Shikon no Tama." Kagome said, putting her hand in her pocket but couldn't find them a look of fear and worry hit her face.
"Here. These are yours." Logan said, handing the jewel shards to her.
"Phew. I thought I lost them." Kagome said, taking the small bottle.
"Shikon no Tama. The Jewel of four Souls. I have heard about it." Logan said, looking at Kagome.
"Really now." Kagome said, looking at Logan a bit surprised.
"Yes, they it shattered in fragments." Logan said, throwing a glance at the shards in Kagome's hands.
"I'm not stupid you know. If you're trying to trick me I would love to see you try it." Kagome said, looking at Logan.
"[She's quick.] I wasn't trying to trick you." Logan said, look off the to side.
"Liar. I heard when some people lie that they look towards their left or downwards or don't make eye contact with the person they are talking to." Kagome deadpanned as Logan turned his eyes back to Kagome and raised a brow.
"[I've got to look that up.] All right. But could you at least tell us why or who would have sent them after you?" Logan asked, looking at Kagome.
"Not a clue." Kagome said, scratching her head.
"Kagome, we both know you have no desire to tell us what really happened between them and you but we really need to know. There may be someone after you." Xavier said, looking at Kagome.
"But who would be? I just came here about a month ago. Much less the whole thing with the demons was a total and I mean total secret." Kagome said, looking at Xavier funny.
"I don't know, that's why you need to know. In stead of you telling us, would you mind if read your mind. Would that make you feel a little better?" Xavier asked, looking Kagome raise and brow.
"Hmmm... I don't know. I guess. You'll keep it quite it though, right?" Kagome asked, raising a brow.
"Yes, I never let out other student's private information out." Xavier said, looking at Kagome.
Kagome nodded her head and let Xavier read her mind. She figured she was having a hard time trying not telling anyone about adventures. Fighting off demons, faking illnesses, juggling schoolwork, and trying to keep up a love life was just hard on her poor conscience.
{Magneto's Hideout}
"Your plan worked, Magneto. She got rid of the spirits." Mystique said, walking into Magneto's office.
"Good. Very good. From here I have to let Pietro get closer to her. Lead her away from the X-Men so she will be easy to grab." Magneto said, looking at Mystique.
"I fear that Pietro is falling for her. She has such a kind spirit. What would happen if he ended up trying to protect her from you?" Mystique asked, crossing her arms.
"Well, if that should happen I guess by options would be to beat some since into him or get rid of him permanently. I will let nothing get in my way of freeing that demon." Magneto said, leaning back into his chair.
Mystique had a surprised look on her face. Did he care nothing for his children. He had already abandoned Wanda and now his son Pietro. Had this man truly never loved his own son, the one child he kept. Everyone around him was just a pawn to him. Game pieces in his wicked games. He cared for no one. Mystique then walked out of the his off to do some more spying. But the thought of Magneto not even caring for his son ate at her. Sure she didn't like Pietro one bit but to let Pietro unknowingly be used and then wasted at his age was just unbelievable. So should she tell Pietro what might happen if he does fall for the young priestess or just let it be?
{Kagome's room 20 minutes later}
"Well?" Logan asked, look at Xavier's shocked face.
"This all happened in one year?!" Xavier asked, looking at Kagome is surprise.
"Yeah, and you didn't even go through it all yet." Kagome said, nodding her head.
"What all happened in one year?" Logan asked, looking at Xavier and then at Kagome.
"Logan, my friend, it's best you don't know. And just leave it as that." Xavier said, looking up at Logan.
(KNOCK, KNOCK)
"Charles, may I ask what you plan to do with Kagome's cat?" Ororo asked, knocking on the door and then opened it.
"What did you 'PLAN' for my cat?" Kagome asked, glaring at Xavier.
"Well, seeing on what I just got from Kagome, I guess the cat stays." Xavier said, looking up at Ororo.
"What does she eat by the way? I've near seen you freed her." Ororo asked, looking at Kagome.
"Meat. A lot of meat. Sorry about the missing stakes and chickens the last few weeks." Kagome said sheepishly with a big grin.
"You mean they've been going to feed, Kirara?!" Ororo, Logan, and Xavier asked in unison, looking at Kagome slink under her covers, face turning pink.
"Sorry. I feed her late at night when no one's up." Kagome said, ducking fully under the covers.
"Why didn't you come front with her in first place?" Ororo asked, looking at a Kagome sized lump under the covers.
"Well, I really didn't think you guy would like the idea of giant cat demon running around the place too much." Kagome said, still hiding under the covers.
"Well, she has a point we already have trouble being what we are and with something running around like that would raise quite a few more troubles for us." Ororo said, looking at Xavier.
"But can Kirara still stay. She not big all the time." Kagome asked, risking a peek at Xavier.
"As long as you stop feeding her like you've been doing and make sure she stays in her small form." Xavier said, nodding his head.
"Hey, Kagome this letter just came in the mail." Jean said, walking into room and handed Kagome the letter.
"It has no return address... I wonder who it could be from?" Kagome asked, opening the letter and then read it, eyes growing wide and a smile raced across her lips.
/-/ A/N Well sorry about the ending to this chapter getting a little weak but I hope that this small cliffy makes up for it. Now what could be in the letter that's got Kagome so happy. Also this is going to be another small X- over in the story but not much. It won't change anything in fact it will help it move along and create some laughs./-/

"Hey, Kagome this letter just came in the mail." Jean said, walking into room and handed Kagome the letter.
"It has no return address... I wonder who it could be from?" Kagome asked, opening the letter and then read it, eyes growing wide and a smile raced across her lips.
/-/ A/N Well sorry about the ending to this chapter getting a little weak but I hope that this small cliffy makes up for it. Now what could be in the letter that's got Kagome so happy. Also this is going to be another small X- over in the story but not much. It won't change anything in fact it will help it move along and create some laughs./-/
