(Ok, here's the breakdown: I wrote this chapter but couldn't post it because my mother fucked up the computer, and now I can't open the damn thing. So now I have to rewrite the whole damn chapter, and it's probably not going to be anything like I had in mind at the time. That and I'm very damn pissed off right about now! Grr! ::stomps off angrily to write the chapter while murmuring about morons and obvious viruses:: )
Gothmiko- thanks for the compliment, and I hope I get good ideas too. n.n
Sunstar Kitsune- if you really want to know you're going to have to keep reading until the end. After all, if I told you right now, it would ruin all the fun. n.n
Anime Lavuh- I am mean, aren't I? But, if I didn't ever have cliffhangers, then the story would be kinda boring... that and people would stop reading. T.T And I'm very sorry for the late update, but (as stated above) my computer was screwed up, and it took a while before I got it back, then it took even longer for me to rewrite the chapter.
Miko of Light and Dark- You're name makes me think of Oreos and Star Wars (which is a pretty interesting conversation...) ::shudder:: cookies with light-sabers hurt... ANYWHO! It depends on what you mean by 'makes another appearance'. His reincarnation will be in the story (as a semi-majorish character), but no the original will not come back to life. (Besides, that would be like him becoming like another Kikyo... ::shudder:: )
Sqeekers- I can always count on you for a review. n.n It would be damn funny if Naraku landed on Hiei... especially if Kagome took some blackmail pictures ::snicker::, but I think that I have something better in mind. (At least I hope it's better) By the way, Inuyasha is dead (in case you're still unsure), but I'm not too sure if she'll be paired with his reincarnation. If I get a lot of reviews requesting it... maybe. And I think that sugar is really good. After all, if it weren't for a sugar-induced hype I never would have started this thing in the first place... or maybe that was a different story that I'm thinking about... Point Being, I formally congratulate you for your usage of the word 'fantabulous' since it reminds me of Eddie Izzard, and he makes me laugh. CONGRATS TO YOU! n.n
Katreal- Thank you for your compliments, it's very kind of you. I'm glad that you liked the other two, and I hope this one really is wonderful. Just so you know, there's going to be a lot of tie-ins from the first one (like the song Glycerin appearing everywhere) so I'm glad that you actually read it. (some people started from the second one, and that might not have been the best choice...) Sorry about the rambling, but... I got noth'n. I hope that you enjoy the rest of this story as much (if not more so) than the first two. n.n
Yup. It's me- Well, Inuyasha's body went to Hell, so his soul spent some time inside of Kagome. Then, Kagome forced it out of her body and went off to Reikai for a while. Then it reincarnated into... someone. Dose that answer your question? By the way, I'm glad that you like my stories. n.n
Tigermage- I'm glad you like my stories, and I'm sorry for the late update but there were some complications. You're my eighth reviewer for this chapter, and eight happens to be my lucky number. Congrats to you. n.n
Disclaimer- We've been over this again and again, I DON'T OWN INUYASHA OR YU YU HAKUSHO, SO GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULLS!
Ch4
Naraku stood up and looked around. Kagome seemed to be sleeping on top of some unknown demon, and the place that he was in was vastly different from where he was when he first entered his prison. The sky seemed to be a pale pinkish color, while the ground was a sickly yellow-green. He heard a noise to his left, and turned his head to see three four figures rushing in the opposite direction of himself. After weighing his options, Naraku decided to explore this place, since Kagome probably wasn't going anywhere. The henyou put his half of the Shikon no Tama, which was still disgustingly pure, in a pocket and flew away in a cloud of miasma.
(((((((-)))))))
Shippo glared at Miroku, Sango, and Kohaku when they returned to SesshouMaru's keep, "Why did we have to leave?! Naraku's was right there! WE COULD'VE BEATEN HIM!
Shippo felt something hit the back of his head, and turned around to see SesshouMaru standing there, "Because that would be interfering with the Spirit Detective, which what I told you not to do. Besides, if he is as strong as he was when he went in, you would've been killed and that would have made things worse. There will be a time for attacking, but that won't be until we know that Kagome is alright, and how strong Naraku really is."
"Feh," Shippo crossed his arms, a habit he had adopted from Inuyasha, "I doubt you even care about her!"
SesshouMaru punched the kitsune, who went flying a good five feet from the force, "Whether or not you choose to believe it, Kagome is the only living thing that is left of Inuyasha, and I plan to respect her and treat her like the sibling that I should have with Inuyasha. Now then, we won't attack Naraku until we know how strong he is, and what it is that he could be planning." SesshouMaru turned and walked away from the four, who began to talk about what they would say when they got to talk to Kagome.
(((((((-)))))))
Hiei opened his eyes and looked around, trying to figure out why, and when, he fell asleep. 'I was called into that damned toddler's office... went to Makai on a mission... there was a ball thing... and then something came flying out of it and hit me.' Hiei moved his gaze towards his stomach, where he felt something shift, to see a henyou sleeping peacefully. It was a female dog-henyou, with blackish blue hair and two fuzzy dog ears of the same color.
It was at this point in time that Yusuke decided to show up, out of a portal that Koenma must have summoned. The Spirit Detected took one look at Hiei before bursting out in laughter, "Koenma woke me up to help you, but it seems like you're doing just fine without me, Hiei."
Hiei growled at him, "Get this thing off of me!"
Yusuke smirked, "I don't know. I mean she looks pretty comfy to me. Besides, I'm suppose to be helping you watch some ball thing, not fixing your girlfriend problems."
"Detective," Hiei growled more threateningly, "just get it off me!"
"Yeah, yeah," Yusuke mumbled as he picked up the sleeping dog-girl. She murmured something incoherent, but stayed asleep. "So," Yusuke asked as Hiei got up and dusted himself off, "where's this ball thing we're suppose to watch?"
"It disappeared," Hiei said, while glaring at the henyou.
"Ok, what about her?" Yusuke asked, referring to the girl in his arms.
Hiei snorted, "It's not my business what you do with her, just keep her away from me."
"I can't keep her at all! Do you know what Keiko would do to me if she finds out I cancelled our date to take care of some demon girl?!"
"She's not all demon," stated a cheery voice from behind them.
They turned around to see Botan smiling. Yusuke rolled his eyes, "Whatever. Either way, I can't watch her."
"The leave her here," Hiei said, as though it were the most obvious solution in the world.
"Actually," Botan smiled nervously, "Koenma was watching you guys on the view monitor in his office, and turns out that the half-demon you have there isn't on file."
"So what? It's not like it's important or anything," Yusuke stated, voicing Hiei's thoughts.
"So, someone is going to have to take care of the girl until she wakes up, and we can get a file on her," Botan smiled brightly.
"No no no!" Yusuke dropped the girl on the ground, "I can't take care of her! Keiko will kill me!"
"I guess that only leaves you, Hiei."
Hiei glared at Botan, "No."
"But Hiei, you're still under probation for the shadow sword therefore you still work under Koenma. Just think of this as a very easy mission."
Hiei nearly twitched at the news, "I don't care, I refuse to play baby-sitter to anyone! Especially some half-demon that came flying out of a giant black ball!"
Botan sighed, "Hiei, listen. If you do this your probation will be done. It's as simple as that."
"If you're lying about this," Hiei said as he picked up the sleeping girl, "I shall take great pleasure in killing you slowly and painfully." Then, he turned to go find some place to keep the girl while he watched over her.
Botan looked nervous as she added, "Oh yeah, Koenma says that they're be less of a chance of the girl being able to run away if she's in Ningenkai, since it'll be harder for her to hide there than here."
Hiei actually did twitch when he heard this, "So," his voice was practically dripping with venom as he spoke, "you're telling me that not only do I have to watch this girl, but I also have to reside in Ningenkai until Koenma gets off his lazy ass and files her?!"
Botan laughed nervously, "Y-yeah, that's what I'm telling you. But don't worry, you'll have a place to stay. Koenma already got a two bedroom apartment for you."
"I'd hate to butt in," Yusuke said, "but would ya' mind open'n up a portal yet? I really don't feel like spending my time stand'n around Makai all day."
"Uh, right." Botan opened up a portal to Ningenkai that Yusuke walked into, followed by Hiei, who was holding the passed out girl.

Kurama woke up with a start as something cold touched his head. He glanced to the side to see his mother smiling down at him, "Mother? What are you doing up at this time in the morning?"
She laughed a little bit before talking, "Shuichi, it's the middle of the day. You just didn't wake up after last night, so I thought that you might have a fever or something."
"No, Mother, I'm fine." Kurama let what she said sink in before he sat up, "Why didn't you or Souta wake me for school earlier?"
"Shuichi, you looked so peaceful sleeping there that neither of us had the heart to wake you. Besides, I've never seen you just faint like that before, and wasn't sure if anything was wrong."
Kurama shook his head, "I'm fine, really. It's just that I have a lot on my mind right now."
Like the fact that KAGOME'S MY DAMN COUSIN!!! Yoko yelled in his counterparts ear... or... head.
Kurama rubbed his head as he felt a headache coming on, "Mother, do you think it would be alright if I left for a short walk to get some air?"
"Of course," she smiled at him, "be safe."
"I will," Kurama said as he got up and walked out the door.
(I'm sorry for it's lateness, and the shortness, but the next one will be better, and probably posted earlier. So, until then, bah-bye. n.n)
