I'M SORRY! I AM SO, SO SORRY! I have just finished my first week of college and it is going to be very hectic and hard to update as often as I would like. I am going to try my very hardest to update as often as possible, but I can't make any promises….even though I wish I could for everyone, because you guys are so nice and supportive. I can't thank you enough for that. Thanks StarryNightsAreEternal, KatrinaKaiba, candidus-lupus-full Moon, The Halfa Wannabe, inuzrule, Ril-0, The Violent Tomboy, blue dream fairy, Firehedgehog, and Cat-san for your positive, neutral, and/or negative reviews. Every single one counts. I made the chapter longer than normal to make up for my lack of updating, so I hope it is ok. Here is a reminder for languages….because this is going to get quite confusing more than likely.

"Japanese is underlined"

"English is bold"

"Mystic is normal"

'Thoughts are in italics'

Here we go….Danny gets to finally meet the rest of the group! one final note…..I am a bit uncomfortable with cussing and suggestive things so I am going to be a bit choicer in my cuss words for Inuyasha and how lecherous Miroku is….I will try to make it as accurate as possible though(even though I am not an Inuyasha expert.)

Disclamer: I do not own Danny Phantom or Inuyasha…CRYYYYYYYYYYY!

'Ok Fenton, you can handle this….Try not to freak out now…..Lets be calm and rational, because you know how you get when you are freaked out……Stay calm and try not to make this guy mad….'

Danny kept a cautious eye constantly on the Dog Eared Stranger that was dragging him through the forest by the wrist. He tried his hardest not to give him any indication of being nervous or anxious about the predicament…even though he was starting to lose feeling in his hand from the grip he had on him. Every time he moved his wrist or tried to slow down to rest a little the guys ears would twitch and he would turn and give Danny a suspicious glare out of the corner of his eye before turning his head back around and muttering something in Japanese that Danny couldn't quite hear.

After Danny had a slight tumble while trying to get over a fallen tree the stranger gave a dissatisfied growl and muttered again but this time it was loud enough for Danny to hear as they started off again. Danny may not have known a lot of Japanese but he knew just enough to get the message, and he didn't like it one bit "Ningen wo baka." Danny was able to translate it correctly…'Stupid Human'. Danny's patience finally snapped and he immediately phased thru his hand and jumped in front of him in fury.

The stranger was taken aback by the ferocity of the kid; to say the least. Sure he had insulted the kid loud enough for him to hear but he didn't seem to have understood him before so he thought he didn't have to worry, but he was wrong. He was completely confused by the fact that the kid got out of his grip in an instant without him noticing, but what he was really confused about was the fact that his eyes seemed to have changed color. Instead of the blue eyes he knew he had they were now a bright and furious green color that seemed to glow with some sort of magical power. He immediately started yelling at him in his native language at first but then in random intervals he seemed to go into the Mystic language subconsciously as he got madder.

The stranger decided to let him get what he needed to say out. "Now you listen here you silver haired loser! I may not be like you but that gives you no right to call me stupid! You don't even know me! I have been calledmany things in my life, but I don't feel that you calling mestupid for no reason is ethical, especially since I came here to start all over again! So let's make a deal shall we Freak! You not call me names and I will not call you names!..."

The kid seemed to calm down slightly as he got his breath back, and his eyes slowly faded back to their regular blue color. He suddenly groaned and put a hand over his face in sudden realization of something important. He muttered half to himself and half to the stranger, "You didn't understand a word I just said did you?"

The stranger seemed slightly shaken and confused but over all quite calm on the outside…even though inside he was seething form the message he was able to piece together from what he could understand. He gave a slight growl and grabbed the kids' wrist again, and they went back to their little hike thru the woods.

Danny finally got sick of the silence after their little fight shortly there after and decided to break the ice, "Danny." The stranger stopped immediately and turned around to face Danny and he spoke again with his free wrist pointing to his chest "Danny". Danny then pointed to the stranger and stared at him with curious, innocent blue eyes. The stranger sighed and turned his eyes away slightly and muttered "Inuyasha". Danny smiled kindly and nodded in satisfaction. 'Inuyasha' gave a slight sigh and turned around and started off again.

Danny couldn't help but wonder, 'Inuyasha? Very interesting name. I hope he knows what to do.'

Inuyasha was lost in his own thoughts as well as they continued on. 'What the hell is with this kid? His power is so hard to place, and he certainly doesn't seem very hostel even with is little show of anger….He smells human, but he also has a slight scent of death around him and also a hint of a smell similar to mine…..Could he be Half Demon?...And what the Hell is with this kids eyes!...They are suppose to be blue, Right?...So why were his eyes glowing green when he was mad at me?...' He sighs and casts a quick glance at the kid walking silently behind him in his firm grip. 'Danny?...Never heard of a name like Danny before. I sure hope Kagome and the others will be able to give me some answers about him.' Inuyasha turned back around and catches a scent in the air. 'Kagome is close by. Finally!'

Inuyasha started to walk faster and faster with the kid trying his hardest to keep pace. Inuyasha could hear Danny trying to make comments and questions but he couldn't understand him, so he shook it off and kept running. Finally they came to a break in the trees and he saw his companions up on a hill under a tree making a fire. Inuyasha smirked and dragged Danny up the hill to them. Kagome had gathered up tinder for the fire, while Miroku and Sango were finishing the fire pit. Shippo and Kilala were taking a nap by the tree roots.

Miroku was the first to see him. "Inuyasha! Did you find any sign of Naraku?" Inuyasha shook his head "No. But I found something more interesting." He pushed Danny beside him. The boy seemed very confused. He kept shifting the bag on his back and was nervously rubbing his wrist where Inuyasha had grabbed him. Kagome, Miroku, and Sango stared at the kid in confusion while Kilala and Shippo started waking up.

Danny was very confused about the predicament he was in, but he tried his best to stay calm and not give his secret away. Inuyasha had finished speaking to the people and now they were all staring at him. He flashes a shy, nervous smile and waved slightly. There were two girls and a boy tending to a fire. And there was some little animal and a small kid waking up under the tree.

The boy seemed in his late teens to early twenties with black hair that was pulled back in a small ponytail. He had black eyes and a wise face, and he also had some piercings in his ears. He had a staff by his side and was wearing a dark blue robe with a purple sash.

The first girl seemed in her late teens with long black hair that was pulled in lose ponytail and dark brown eyes. There was a giant boomerang by her side that seemed to big for almost anyone to carry. She was wearing a pink and red top with a green bottom.

The second girl was slightly older than Danny with long black hair and brown eyes. She had a bow and arrows next to her as well as a large yellow backpack. She was wearing a modern looking outfit that seemed like it would be for a school, and it was white with green accents, and a red collar. She had on a green mini skirt.

The ones under the tree were finally awake enough for observation. The kid seemed around eight years old with reddish brown hair and turquoise eyes. His ears were pointed and his feet seemed like animal feet. He also had a very bushy tail. He was wearing a bright blue kimono with a leaf design on the top and a small fur vest of tan over it.

The animal seemed to be a tan cat with black stripes on its paws and its TWO tails? It had large red eyes and it seemed very inquisitive. Danny fidgeted while he waited for any type of reaction from the new group of people. The first one two make a move was the cat creature. It tilted its head to the side and blinked its big red eyes at him, and then it walked over to him curiously and started rubbing his leg. Danny couldn't help but smile at it. He started to pet it and scratch it behind the ears. It meowed and kept rubbing him as he cast occasional glances at the others, hoping for a reaction.

Inuyasha stared at Danny a little while as he petted Kilala before speaking to the others "Seems Kilala likes our guest, so we can safely assume he is benevolent at least….What are you guys getting from him?" Sango was first to answer as she fingered the strap of her boomerang, Hiraikotsu, "Well if Kilala is ok with him then I am to, but I have never seen Kilala act so friendly to a complete stranger before….Where did you find him?" Inuyasha shrugged "He was by the Bone Keepers Well. A demon was about to attack him from behind when I saved him, but there is something odd about him. I'll explain what I mean after I get your input first."

Shippo was next to comment. "I think he is cool…..If that counts for anything. He has a pack on similar to Kagome's….Does he have ninja food for us?" Inuyasha rolled his eyes "I don't care about that Shippo. I want to know if you sense any magic force, or Jewel shards, or aura you can find on him."

Miroku was scratching his chin lightly as he gazed at the boy who had finished petting Kilala and was now looking at everyone in confusion, and in Miroku's mind he seemed oblivious to the things being said about him. "I definitely sense an aura….it seemed like that of a dead spirit, but it seems like it is a half dead spirit if that is even possible. By the way Inuyasha, why is it that he doesn't seem affected by us talking about him?" Inuyasha Ignored Miroku's question and focused on Kagome, who had yet to speak at all.

"Well Kagome? Do you sense any shards in him?" Kagome finally seemed to hear Inuyasha and answered "No jewel shards in him at all…..But he seemes to give off a slight aura like he would have a shard in him….Who is this guy Inuyasha?" "I think his name is Danny." Inuyahsa said boardly. "You think? What does that mean?" Shippo asked. "He can't speak Japanese apparently, and he can't understand us were well. He can understand some words and phrases though." They all stared at Inuyasha for a moment then they all looked at Danny in shock. "He can't understand us?" Sango asked, hoping to clarify "Nope. Maybe he can get a word or two but he basically can't communicate with us." "What are you saying? Can't he talk to us at least?" Kagome asked again.

Danny had a lot of trouble being able to understand any thing any of them were saying, and he was considering getting his dictionary out and start trying to translate when Inuyasha made the first move. He said something to the girl with the bow, and then he went and stood right beside Danny, seemingly doing nothing, but Danny had a bad feeling that he wasn't going to like where this was going. Before Danny had time to react Inuyasha suddenly bonked him hard on the top of his head. Danny hissed and glared angrily at inuyasha before blowing up again "That hurt you Jerk! What did you do that for? You had no right to hit me! I swear I got enough of that back home from Dash, but come on man! That was totally uncalled for! If these were better circumstances I would over….shad…ow you?" Danny immediately shut up as he saw that the others were staring at him in shock. They stared at him, and he stared at them. Inuyahsa just looked casually from Danny to his friends, waiting to see who would crack first. Inuyahsa couldn't help but smirk at the expressions on their faces.

Here it is everyone! Sorry again for being so patient with me on this little updating hindrance. I will try my very hardest to update more, but college is going to be tough…I can tell. Hope to hear from you soon. Love you all! BYE!
