Last Time:

Kagome begins to wonder how Inu Yasha and the rest will react to Kasandra and her demonic abilities and her markings. Unfortunately for Kagome she won't have long to ponder as Inu Yasha has already caught their scents and in heading towards them at full speed.

This Time:

Kasandra hears someone/something crossing threw the undergrowth she grabs Kagome's wrist, pulling her to a stop then in one fluid movement she pulls her sword from it's sheath and steps before Kagome, her eyes pure silver. Inu Yasha crashes through the bushes a string of curses errupting from his lips, "Damn wench, what took you so damned long..." but he is suddenly cut off as his eyes grow large while staring point blank at the tip of Kasandra's sword.

The first thing he notices is the tip of the sword (Kit-chan-no really? he's only got it waving in his damned face. YoukoLover- gasps Kit-chan language!) in his face, the second thing he notices is the power pulsing from said sword, the third is the female weilding the blade. With a voice colder than Sesshomaru's Kasandra asks, "Care to rephrase that half-breed?" Kagome's eyes grow wide hearing Kasandra's tone and statement.

Inu Yasha swallows hard, "Kagome what took you so long? We were all worried." Kagome's jaw drops and she starts to wonder why Inu seems so afraid of Kasandra, but smiles inwardly because now she can threaten him with Kasandra instead of having to 'sit' him all the time. Kasandra's eyes narrow and she slides the sword home in it's scabbard, then her eyes return to their natural ocean-turbulance blue. Just then Miroku, Sango, Shippo; Kirara enter the clearing so Kagome does step around Kasandra to introduce everyone.

"Kas this is... omph..." Kagome gets cut off as a osft ball of orange fur collides with her stomach, smiling Kagome hugs Shippo to her and continues on, "My son Shippo, Miroku the hentai houshi, Sango a taijiya and the sister I never had, and on her sholder is Kirara a..." "Fire/Nightmare neko." Kasandra supplies then she nods to kirara whom nods back (in her own kawii kitty way) then she holds out a hand towards Sango but instead of taking the offered hand Sango hugs her. She's suprised but she doesn't push her away, instead she returns the hug and releases Sango albeit reluctantly.

Looking at Miroku, whom is trying to look innocent, she holds out a hand to greet him. Miroku grasps it lightly and asks, "Wonderous maiden would you do me the honor of baring my child?" Kasandra's face is schooled to indifference, though she can't control the slight tic in her eyebrow, as she looks at him. "A couple of things... One, release my hand houshi. Two, you're not my type. Three, didn't ur mother eva tell u strange women are dangerous? And last but not least, if your hand gets any closer to my ass it will be removed as well as your tool which you create children with... understand?"

Miroku swallows hard and moves away quickly. Turning towards Kagome and Shippo she yips at Shippo and lifts a clawed hand to gently run it through his hair, her eyes shining with the love of children and her ears (YoukoLover- yes i said ears she now sports a lovely pair of crimson Kitsune ears) twitching slightly, "Konnichiwa young one." Kagome is pleasantly suprised when Shippo jumps to Kasandra and perches on her sholder. Then mischief sparkles in Kasandra's eyes, which can only mean trouble when it's a kitsune with that look, as she says something in Shippo's ear using a series of yips and barks.

Shippos laughs at what Kasandra had said and nods. Kasandra then turns towards Inu Yasha and asks, "So who's the half-breed?" Shippo speaks up, "Kassy that's Inu Yasha." "Dog female demon? That is a he correct?" Inu Yasha's face is as red as his fire-rat hoari, but Shippo chimes in again, "We think so but we don't know for sure." Kagome clears her throat loudly to get everyone's attention.

When everyone looksat her she says, "That's enough picking on Inu-kun. Let's head back to Kaede's." When everyone agrees Inu Yasha looks at Kagome with a great deal of love and respect shining in his liquid gold eyes. Then he turns to lead them all back to Kaede's but not fast enough to hide the look or the emotions from Kasandra. Taking note of it she follows closely, only semi-aware of the amber eyes following her. Suddenly a large boar youkai leaps at Kagome growling about shards, but it is intercepted by Kasandra because she had jumped in betweenKagome and the youkai.

Her eyes glowing feircely silver as she rips the boar's throat out with her bare claws, the body disinagrates and Kasandra picks up the two shards from the ground and hands them to Kagome. Kagome quickly purifies them and tucks them away just before she senses Naraku approaching. Dropping her pack she tells Shippo to hide, when Shippo complies Kasandra drops her pack as well. Then instead of drawing her sword she rests her hands on her fans. Just as everyone drops into their individual battle stances Kagura appears. When Kagura steps off her feather Kasandra slips her fans from their holders and holds them by her legs one on either side.

Just as Kagura sends her blades of wind at Kagome Kasandra's fans click open and Kagura feels true fear, fear worse than any Naraku has ever instilled in her, as death brushes her. Kagura's crimson eyes clash with Kasandra's silver ones and instantly Kagura calls back her attack and stares silently at Kasandra. Subsiquently a battle of wills takes place with the loser turning tail and flying away as quickly as her feather can carry her. Kagome peels her eyes open to see Kasandra resholdering her pack as if nothing had happened and handing Kagome's to her, "She's gone, are you ready to continue?" Nodding Kagome accepts her pack and resholders it as Shippo reappears from nearby brush looking awestruck at Kasandra.

Unknown to them the owner of the amber eyes that is watching from afar is just as impressed by her show of power. 'She will bare powerful pups, and this Sesshomaru will have nothing but the best!' He thinks as he watches his unsuspecting future mate head off with his pathetic half-breed brother and his human wench. 'Soon... soon you'll be mine...'

There u go another chappie down.
