Charlie meets up with InuYasha and the gang, but all doesn't go as planned. Can Charlie even start his mission without risking trouble?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Charlie pulls himself out of the well and into feudal Japan. The gang isn't too far ahead. Kagome had returned from her time about an hour befor Charlie, and were resting near the well as they prepared to leave. Charlie manages to get out of the well unnoticed.
Charlie: Looking at the picture and thinking, referring to Sango That's her alright. And the others are there, too. I guess it's time for the grand entrance.
Charlie makes his way over to the gang from behind.
Kagome: What's wrong, InuYasha?
InuYasha: Something doesn't feel right. And I'm getting a funny smell all of the sudden. Turns around to face Charlie Almost like someone was sneaking up behind us. Who the hell are you?
Charlie: Who I am is not important right now. I've been looking gor Kagome, and I seem to have found her.
InuYasha: What do you want with Kagome?
Kagome: InuYasha, please calm down.
InuYasha: Stay out of this, Kagome! He's obviously working for Naraku!
Charlie: I don't know what you're talking about. Let me buy you a drink and we can discuss this.
InuYasha: Feh. I'm easier to trick then that. Pulls out the Tetsusaiga Lets see how you handle this!
Charlie: I do not wish to use force.
Kagome: InuYasha, that's- (cut off)
InuYasha: I said stay outta this! To Charlie If you won't fight, then you'll die!
InuYasha charges with the Tetsusaiga. Charlie draws his sword and a fight ensues. After a minute or two of swordplay, they knock each other's weapons to the ground. Charlie quickly puts up his fists and knocks InuYasha clean out.
Sango: Somewhat suprised by Inu's easy defeat He took out InuYasha!
Miroku: Maybe InuYasha was right! Confronts Charlie I thought you wanted to be peaceful!
Charlie: I was only defending myself.
Miroku: How can we be sure you're telling the truth? Maybe you are working for Naraku!
Charlie: Angered Look, I have a very important assignment so unless you want some too, I suggest you back off!
Miroku considers this a threat and swings at Charlie, who dodges. Charlie knocks Miroku down and thrusts his staff through his clothes and into the ground, pinning him there. By this time, InuYasha has gotten back up but is still in a daze.
Sango: Thinking I guess I have to save them...again. Changes to combat gear
Charlie: I see you want to play, too. I've been anxious to meet you, demon slayer.
Sango: How do you know who I am?
Charlie: I have my sources. I'll offer a peaceful resolution again. I don't want to hurt you.
Sango: It's too late for that. You already hurt InuYasha.
Charlie: Very well then. He reaches out for his sword, some 20 feet away, and it flies into his hand Author's note: No, he's not a jedi, the only thing he can do that with is his sword. It will be explained later.
The fighting begins. The swordplay lasts longer than with InuYasha, but it ends the same. They knock each other's weapons to the ground. But as Charlie moves in for a punch, Sango dodges and counters. But he counters her counter. And she counters his counter that counters her counter. And he counters her counter that counters his counter that counters her counter that counters his original attack. Whew! And it continues this way. Think of a scene from "The Matrix" They land some hits, but never seem to be able to capitalize. The fighting continues when suddenly, Sango trips over a log. But Charlie trips too, and lands right on top of her! They look into each other's eyes and smile. They're not really fighting anymore. It was too much fun to be a fight. Charlie helps Sango up and they brush themselves off.
Charlie: You are a formidable opponent. I'm Charlie, by the way. Charlie Frater. Holds out his hand
Sango: Shakes his hand and smiles I'm Sango.
Charlie: Well Sango, I look forward to learning more about you, but right now I have some business to attend to. Warmly Kagome!
Kagome: Smiling Charlie! She junps into his arms, greeting him with a friendly hug
InuYasha: You idiot, Kagome! Why didn't you tell me you knew this guy?
Kagome: SIT! I tried to tell you, InuYasha, but you were too busy being a big jerk!
InuYasha: Sarcastically "You're welcome" would've been enough.
Kagome: SIT! What are you doing here, Charlie?
Charlie: As I said, I'm on a very important assignment.
Kagome: You're not here on military action, are you?
Charlie hands here the warrant and all her questions are answered.
