A.n. Hello everybody...sorry it has been so very long. A lot has been going on at work and at home and stuff. It has been over a month since I updated this story! I am so sorry! I"M SORRY TO THE WHOLE WORLD! Sorry I was having a Ritsu moment there. I really am sorry though.

Ok I need some info...I have been asking a few people this but I thought I would give everybody a chance to put their two cents in. Do you want this story to end with Classic pairings? (Like Kagome and Inuyasha or KyoxTohruxYuki) Or would you rather have surprise Pairings? (No KyoxKagura ones but other ones) Or would you like a mix of both? Please let me know ok?

Shigure sniffed the air. The man in front smelled like a dog.

"Half-breeds." The dog man stated contemptuously when he looked at the 12shi. Though I have never seen, different kinds of half-breeds together like that or so many in one place. There is no mistaking the scent though. "Where is the minion of Naraku?"

"God bless you." Momiji stated thinking that the strange doggie-man had sneezed when he said Naraku.

Sesshoumaru said nothing but cast a chilling glance at where Momiji had been. He expected the little rabbit half-breed to go scampering off for its life. Only...the child didn't pay any attention to him...in fact he wasn't even there anymore. Looking back, he was shocked to see him introducing himself to Rin and offering her something that looked like candy.

"My what an elegant man!" Shigure stated. "Aaya you have got to go stand next to him so I can get a picture of you two together! I must document this incredible moment in history...Imagine two such elegant people! The odds of two people like you meeting must be astronomical."

Hatori who had been watching the strange man warily sighed. "Don't encourage him Shigure."

Aaya pranced over to the dog demon who was getting irritated. Instantly Aaya launched into an exuberant exposition about the dog demons' hair, skin and clothing. The man went on and on about how he would love to design some clothing for him. Sesshoumaru contemplated teaching them a lesson. These half-breeds were not showing proper respect and admiration. But more than that they were starting to get annoying. Cracking his knuckles and arching his fingers he considered teaching them respect.

"You are not paying proper respect and attention to Lord Sesshoumaru Samma!" Jacken (the little lizard man shouted) erupting into a long-winded speech about how they should act toward someone of his stature.

A calm voice broke the deluge of voices from Jacken and the snake hanyou. The voice was like the eye of a storm. Deceptively calm and deadly. It was dangerous.

"Aaya leave the man alone and come back over here. Momiji you too." Hatori stated. He could feel such incredible awareness filling him. Hatori knew that this man was dangerous.

Sesshoumaru looked over at the one who spoke. The only one there worth taking seriously. If his nose wasn't deceiving him, and it never did, he was part dragon. Sesshoumaru could sense untested strength and power coming from the man. They looked at each other calmly. He was the only one worth fighting. The scent of Naraku was growing cold however. They are not worth my time or effort. He thought. "Rin let's go. I was giving them too much credit when I asked a simple question." It's too bad I didn't have more time. Sesshoumaru thought. I wonder why all those half-breads were all in human form and yet smelled of half-breeds. And I would have liked to have tested the dragon.

"Don't forget what I said. You really need to trim your nails!" Aaya shouted out to the dog demon who turned to start walking away.

The remaining 12shi looked at the little green man who continued ranting on about how they should act. He didn't seem to notice that he was leaving him behind.

"We should get moving. This place is strange and dangerous. We need to get the others and get back through that well." Hatori stated breathing again at last. He wouldn't admit it to anyone but he was very relieved the strange man had left.

"Ok one more thing though before we go." Shigure giggled as he snuck up to Jacken. "Boy, this guy sounds really important to you." He stated slyly.

"Lord Sesshoumaru is my life! Pathetic dog you are not worthy of his magnificent presence."

"Apparently neither are you." Shigure laughed. "He seems to have left you behind." Shigure pointed out to the long-winded creature who immediately ran off calling for his master.

"Now that is out of the way." Hatori stated with a long-suffering voice. "You said you could smell what way the boys went Shigure?"

"Yes. It's really strange." Shigure stated in one of his rare serious moments. "I wonder why and what it means. They went that way. The scent is getting faint though."

"Get sniffing." Hatori commanded.

"Haa san you are so mean!" Shigure cried out but started following after Yuki and Kyo.

Inuyasha and Kagome raced through the trees once again. Both were determined to catch up to the snake creature and the young girl it was abducting.

"Inuyasha, isn't this the way to Sango's village? Maybe we will run into them with any luck they saw the snake thing and saved the girl already right? Sango's boomerang is broken but that doesn't mean they couldn't defeat one snake creature."

"Heh, don't worry Kagome. Even if they didn't see it we have made some good time. I think that they are just over that ridge." A young girls sudden shrieking scream interrupted any reply Kagome could have made.

"That must be her." Kagome cried. "We have almost caught up to them."

"See I told you that we would catch up to them again. Let's get that bastard minion of Naraku's and squeeze some information out of that thing."

"Watch out!" Kagome shouted shooting one of her arrows. It instantly turned into a streak of light utterly completely purifying one of the demons that had appeared from out of nowhere.

"Iron reaver soul stealer!" Inuyasha shouted slashing more of them with his sharp claws. They instantly fell to the ground dead. They were quickly replaced with an entire army of demons.

"I don't have time to deal with you creatures right now, I have to get Naraku's incarnation!" Inuyasha shouted. "Windscar!" He shouted. With one sweep of his sword a several streaks of deadly energy arched out destroying everything in its wake.

They were about to race after the Snake creature again when more demons blocked their path.

"Get the hell out of our way!" Kagome shouted shooting two arrows at the same time. They arched out destroying a large number of demons in their path.

Inuyasha's mouth dropped open wide. "W...What did you say?" He asked in shock. Inuyasha stood looking at Kagome as she shot several more creatures.

"Inuyasha! Get to work! The snake and the girl are getting farther and farther away every second we delay. I'll bet Naraku sent them to keep us from saving that girl."

Inuyasha shook his head to clear his thoughts. Something was defiantly wrong with Kagome. She never swears. She must be really worried still because she delayed us when we first started to come and rescue the girl. He told himself. It is just so odd for Kagome to talk like that even if she is really worried.

"Hello! Earth to Inuyasha!" Kagome shouted at him again. "Will you please destroy these demons so we can get going, please?"

"Oh right!" Inuyasha took one more odd look at her and turned back to the matter at hand. The complete and total destruction of the demons at hand.

Tohru stirred and woke from her fainting spell still in the arms of the snake demon. Groggy at first it took her a moment to remember what had happened and what had made her faint. Tensing up she looked down to see the ground far below her. Instantly she was screaming at the top of her lungs, a high piercing scream. She wrapped her arms around his neck and clung for dear life. Her nails were biting painfully into his shoulders. Even as she continued screaming in his ear.

"Would you sshut up?" The snake hissed in her ear. It took a moment for her terrified brain to register that he had asked her to stop screaming.

"Ah, ha ha." Tohru blushed, laughing nervously. "I'm so very sorry Snake-san! I really didn't mean to shout in your ear." She started rattling on nervously. "It's just. We are up so high. It's really a long way down. I guess I shouldn't be scared your wings must be very strong. But I am having the strangest day and if feels like the whole world just changed when I fell down that well. Then that thing attacked us and...um...uh...would you please land and put me down? I would really appreciate it ever so much. Um...I really should get back to Yuki and Kyo before they start worrying too much. I hate to cause problems...but you seem to be carrying me very far away and I don't know how I'll find my way back and..." Tohru didn't realize how she was rambling in shock and fear trying to bow and managing to nod her head at the creature who was abducting her.

"What are you Ssstupid? I'm kidnaping you to take back to master."

"K..k..kidnaping me?" Tohru asked horrified. Instantly she was screaming again and calling for help.

"I said Ssshut up or I'll just drop you whether the masster wantss you alive or not!" The creature shouted over her wild cries.

Miroku, Sango, Shippou and Kirara were all in a field of wild-flowers. Sango had already started the process of fixing her hiraikotsu. In the meantime she had selected another weapon to keep with her, a dragon's barbed tail connected to a chain.

Miroku watched Sango with an appreciative eye as she gathered more wild-flowers for the graves of the dead villagers. Then glancing back at Shippou and Kirara, he made sure that they were sleeping peacefully. A smile curved its way to his lips as he looked back at Sango again. She was something of a wild-flower herself. One he would like to pluck from the vine. With all the stealth and skill he had learned as a monk he snuck forward his eyes intent on his prize.

He was mere inches away when Sango sat down in the middle of the flowers and took a deep breath of the perfumed air. Realizing Miroku was standing right above her.

"Miroku."

"May I join you?" He asked sitting next to her. "There are some things I wish to talk to you about privately. Now seems like the best moment to discuss them."

Sango blinked. He seemed to be being serious for once. "What is it Miroku?" She asked as her heart started to beat faster.

"We have known each other a long time. We have been through a lot together. Battling demons and collecting the Shikon Jewel. I think we make excellent partners."

She blushed slightly as her heart started to race even more. Is he saying what I think he is saying? She asked herself silently.

"I think we should expand on our partnership Sango. I cannot tell you how much it would mean to me." His voice cooed softly in her ear. "Will you...bare my child?" He asked groping her backside.

"Hentai!" Sango shouted grabbing the dragon tail weapon and wacking him over the head with it.

Shippou and Kirara woke and watched as Sango was chasing Miroku all over the field swinging her weapon violently.

Kirara mewed in wonder. Shippou only crossed his arms. "I think Sango likes chasing that monk around."

"What was that?" Sango asked leaning over Shippou her aura on fire.

Shippou instantly clung to Kirara. "Nothing!" He cried in terror. "Have pity on me. I'm a poor orphan!"

A high-pitched scream startled everyone. Instantly Miroku was alert. "That sounds like a woman is in trouble!" He declared.

"Kirara!" Sango called to the two-tailed cat who was instantly large. Together they all jumped onto the cat's back and flew off in the direction of the screaming.

Hannajima walked a bit ahead of the others leading the way. She was curious about the mystic portal but was too worried about Tohru to investigate.

Mitsuru walked with them still determined to find Shigure and ring the manuscript from his neck. She was sick and tired of his constant games. Looking over to the girl named Arisa she eyed the lead pipe in the girls' hands. It was bloody and looked like a serious weapon in her hands.

"Do you always carry that with you?" She asked.

"Hunh? Oh.. Yes I have a rather sentimental attachment to it."

"It looks like you could cause serious damage with something like that." Thinking maybe Shigure would stop teasing her if she carried something like that around with her.

"Hell yeah. This baby's saved me more than once."

"Would you mind if I looked at it for a moment?"

Shrugging Arisa handed over the pipe. For the first time that day Mitsuru smiled as she imagined Shigure shaking in fear as she stood over him triumphantly. Here Miss Mitsuru I finished the manuscript and actually I have the next one ready too. Please take them now! She giggled as she imagined him crouching low, like a dog with its tail between its legs. Suddenly the light left her and she sighed despondently. Who am I kidding? I could never hurt somebody with something like this. I just don't have it in me. She thought to herself.

A strange noise sounded from just beyond the bushes. "Lord Sesshoumaru Samma!" A horrid green creature leapt out of the bushes at her.

"Ahhh! It's a mutated lizard!" She screamed as she used the club like a baseball bat sending the creature flying.

Jacken landed more than twenty feet away. A bush broke his fall. Unfortunately it was a wild rose bush. Jacken groaned his little webbed feet were sticking out of the top of the bush. "Why do these things always happen to me?" He cried.

"Poor Toady." Hana stated blandly.

"Awesome Mitsuru! You hit that creature like a real Yankee."

"Really?" She cried out in delight. Maybe I do have what it takes to defeat Shigure. She thought to herself.
