The cool night breeze slid its swift fingers through Inuyasha's hair as his mind ran like a hamster in a hamster wheel going 20 times than it should be. He was trying to think of ways to cheer Kagome up after what he had just told her before he stormed out on her.
Why is Kagome acting like this? She was always strong and always stayed on her feet in any situation…why now Kagome? I don't understand… shit…what did I say to make her react like that? Well, come to think of it, maybe I was too harsh on her … we are talking about our kids after all…
After a lot of thinking that lead him to nowhere, he decided to return home to see if Kagome was allright and if Kyoi, Sota and Kira were back from their search for his daughter.
Kagome starred at the thin creases of her living room hardwood floor, her tears were making some of the creases grow wider, like a magnifying glass.
What the hell is going on?…Zoria…Kayo…
"Kagome, I'm back, and sorry for what I said." Said Inuyasha in an unusually calm tone. "Did Kyoi and the others return yet?"
"No. They're still loo--" Kagome froze as looked at Inuyaha. "Inuyasha!" She exclaimed as she pointed her finger at Inuyasha's head.
"What is it Kagome? What the hell is wrong? Don't be afraid , I know I snapped and all and I'm really really sorry abou--"
"No, it's not that… Your hair… your ears… your fangs… they're all back!"
"What the hell are you talking about, Kagome? Don't tell me you've gone delusional. Last time I checked my ears, they were right here… Shit! My dog ears are back… shit, my hair… holy shit! I'm a hanyou again!" Inuyasha was freaking out big time. "What the hell is going on?"
"I don't know… things have been so weird… first Zoria and the Tetsaiga are gone, and now, you're back to your hanyou form. Wasn't the wish you made with the Shikkon Jewel supposed to last forever?" Kagome sprinted from the tear stained floor, shoved Inuyasha out of the door's way and headed for the sacred shrine.
"Kagome, where are you going? The well is sealed forever, isn't it?" Inuyahsa followed Kagome into the well. She jumped down, and he instinctively followed. When they reached the bottom, they knew right away that they were in the Feudal Era.
"Blood… I smell a lot of blood!" said Inuyasha as they crawled out of the well.
"Oh my gosh… I sense it… the presence of the Sacred Jewel!"
"That demonic aura…"
"I wonder why we're back here."
A soft growl escaped Inuyasha's throat. "Naraku."
"It's the Shikkon Jewel!" exclaimed Shippo.
"It can't be!" said Neo in awe.
Hikari crawled towards the half of the jewel that he coughed out, and fled as fast as his stumbling body could take him.
"Wait!" cried Zoria, still on the ground. "Wait! Kayo!… Please!" her vision fuzzed away as Hikari did, until all her vision faded to black.
After running like an injured goose for a little while, Hikari collapsed onto the grassy ground.
What's wrong with you, Hikari, get up and go!
"Why is this thing so important, anyways?" asked Hikari to the voice that echoed in his head.
It's the Shikkon Jewel, and not a 'thing'. It holds great powers. We can' let them have the whole thing. W must get a hold of that power, that strength! I want you to get the second half of it.
"Why do you want all that power? Why did the other half of that jewel come out of that hanyou girl? Why is she so familiar? Why do I need this sword?"
You ask too many questions. Just do as I say. Remember your consequences of disobedience? Hurry up. Bananamaru is waiting for you.
"Hai!" Hiraki sprung up and made his way to the place Bananamaru waited, which wasn't very far away.
"There you are! I'll get you this time!" said a very angry voice behind Hikari. Hikari turned around to see a very angry hanyou with sharp claws, sharp fangs, long silver hair, a pair of blazing amber eyes and a pair of cute puppy ears on top of his head. Those ears on his head looked exactly like the ears of that girl who had coughed up the other half of the Sacred Jewel.
"I see you have part of the Shikkon Jewel AND my Tetsaiga! Now hand them over, punk!" demanded Inuyasha as he cracked his knuckles.
"Oh, it's yours?"
"Damn right it is! Hand it over!"
"That's funny. I don't remember stealing this powerful sword from you!" said Hikari as he drew the Tesaiga from its sheath. Inuyasha was shocked to see the Tetsaiga grow in Hikari's hands instead o his.
What the Hell? Why is he able to use the Tetsaiga? I'm the only supposed to be able to weild it that way. Thought Inuyasha quite puzzled. Hikari barely lifted the Tetsaiga from the ground, ready to strike Inuyasha at any moment.
"Allrighty then! Show me what you got, twerp!" said Inuyasha, mocking Hikari's injured pathetic looking state.
"Don't call me a twerp, you… you… umm… even bigger twerp!" Hikari charged Inuyasha with the Tetsaiga, but tripped and let it slip from his grip. Hikari showed he strength of his comeback. Inuyasha quickly snatched his Tetsaiga.
"It's been a while, hasn't it" murmured Inuyasha to his katana. "Let me show you how the Tesaiga really works! No one takes it and gets away from me alive!" Inuyasha lept into the air and swinged the giant blade around. Yellowish strand of stuff swirled around the blade. "WIND SCAR!"
"I wonder what this all means." Said Sango as she gently scrubbed Zoria's forehead with a damp cloth.
"I know. This is all strange." Said Miroku as he stared at his right hand.
Neo stared out at the distance through the opening of the hut, formerly known as Kaede's hut. She took the this sticks (you know, those chop-stickish things people put in their hair sometimes…) out of her sapphire hair, letting it fly freely down her shoulders. Her hair floated in the air as if controlled like puppet strings and turned blonde. Her green eyes turned red in a blink.
Danger was near.
"Kayo…" whispered Zoria as she regained her consiousness. "Where's Kayo? Where's Kayo?" She had fully regained consciousness and was getting more and more agitated.
"It's ok, Zoria, no need to panic. We'll find Kayo, ok?" said Shippo, who was by her side, trying to comfort her.
A loud crashing sound was heard and everyone felt a gigantic gust of wind from where the ceiling once wrong. A swarm of demons attacked.
"Kazana!"
"Hiraikotsu!" (don't kill me if I spelt that wrong :s )
"Fox Fire!" (just to let you know, Shippo's fox fire has REALLY improved over the years.)
Within seconds, the entire hut was gone.
"Bananamaru! How dare you destroy my hut like that!" yelled Neo, throwing her , let's say, hair pieces in Bananamaru's direction. He quickly dodged the hair pieces.
"Where's the other half of the Shikkon Jewel!" demanded Bananamaru.
"Where's your stupid little friend Hikari?" asked Neo as she snapped her fingers and making more of those chop-stick hair pieces appear like a geisha's fan. She threw them all in one shot, slaying most of Bananamaru's demons.
"I got sick of waiting for the bastard, so I came for the Jewel myself!"
Hikari suddenly fell from nowhere, slammed head first on the ground. A great gust of wind followed, distracting everyone.
"Kayo!" yelled Zoria furiously at Hikari, who landed right beside her.
"Zoria!" said Kagome (who popped out of nowhere, finally finding the jewel she detected.)
"Kagome?" exclaimed Shippo in exitement, suddenly ignoring the demon he was fighting.
"Die bastard!" yelled Inuyasha, as he jumped out of the nearby trees, attacking Hikari in a rage.
Neo made two big sharp chop-stick hairpieces appear in her hands, put them both through the sides of Bananamaru's neck, and ripped his head right off, killing him instantly.
"Miroku!" cried Sango as Miroku was sucked into his wind tunnel, taking Bananamaru's decapitated body and the rest of his summoned demons with him.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Sorry for the cliffhanger guys… just click next to see what happens, that's all. (Evil grin)
