Thank you all for waiting. I'm am very sorry it took so long. I have had a very rough time and finally things have settled down for now. You guys rule!
If you guys have been reading my stories, you can tell that I really, really like Hiei/Kagome stories. i ALSO have a huge thing for Kagome/Sesshomaru and Kagome/Kurama... I don't know why but I like 'em.
If you guys have any ideas about stories and you don't want to write 'em I'll be glad to help...when I have the time that is. There is only one type of Crossovers that I don't do...Live action shows or movies crossed with anime or videogames. It just doesn't click with my mind. I know, I am a pain in the butt. A VERY BIG PAIN THE BUTT!
Simon: (SNORE)
Kid Icarus: What the hel-erm-Heaven! Just get on the story.
Mika: . . And if I refuse?
Kid Icarus: Then I'll tell Orochimaru that you're really Sasuke in disguise.
Mika: Damn...

An Unlikely Fellowship Chapter 19: A Truce Made in Hell
Balorog stared at the strange group of travelers for some time now. The young woman with the odd clothing sparked his senses in a frightening manner. This girl couldn't be one of the demon hunters he had trouble with back in his Western home land. Heck she didn't look like any fighter. So why did she carry their aura? He glared at the males. One of them was a monk, carrying a golden staff while eyeing the warrior woman with lust in his eyes. Heh, he had good taste at least.
The ugly looking orange haired boy also carried an intimidating aura. Not as strong as the girl but way stronger than the monk and huntress. There where two kitsune, a youngling and an adult. The young man wearing the green had a strange scent about him, the Fish King couldn't decide weather or not he was a human, demon or maybe something else. He stayed silent as his yellow eyes followed the patrol man that leaped from tree to tree. His nose told him that the watch man was a forbidden one. This was an odd group indeed... However they did not bother him as much the one person he was just dieing to meet, Inu Yasha, the brother of his arch-rival Sesshomaru.
Ria also watched the group with amazement the young man with the red hair smelt so familiar it was scary. 'Youko?' she thought as she grasped her slave collar. If only she wasn't this sardine's slave she would have ran up to the young kitsune and demand to know who he was. Her thoughts where interrupted by the voice of her captor, "Well my pretty little slave, do you know what lies before us?" She glared at him with her beady red eyes and muttered, "Inu Yasha, the hanyou brother of the Lord Sesshomaru."
Balorog cooed with pleasure, "Good, now I need you to be a good little bitch and attack them. Drive them away from each other so that the hanyou and the girl are alone." Ria sighed in a angry manner, "You're a fool, Balorog. I can't take them all on at once by myself and you know it!" "Hush, my pet." cooed Balorog in a whispered and taunting manner, "I have a new ally. One that knows how to deal with this group easily."
Ria shuttered in fear, "You mean...You actually took on HIS offer?" Balorog smiled wickedly as he pulled out a shikon shard out of his ink black armor, "What can I say? It was an offer I could not refuse." He turned toward a figure that waited patiently behind him, "Miss Kagura, I leave this job in yours and Ria's beautiful hands."
The figure emerged from the shadows revealing a youkai woman with sharp red eyes and ebony hair. She pulled out her fan and giggled, "Well, shall we go, fox-girl?"

Kurama watched carefully as Hiei sprang from one tree to the other. The kitsune knew the fire demon was on edge for the past hour but neither he nor the Koorime could figure out why. Something was not right. Inu Yasha also smelt the area in a panicked manner, "Damn it!" He muttered, "I smell Naraku all over the place! Sango are you sure that this Seiko isn't one of Naraku's lackeys?" The Huntress turned around, "Yes I'm sure, Seiko-sama is said to be older than trees so she can't possibly work for him. We'll be at the foot of the mountain very shortly."
Suddenly the wind picked up as Kagome shouted, "Shikon shards! And they're right on top of us!" The group took their vision up to the sky as a familiar laugh cackled, "Well, well! Hello, Inu Yasha, it has been awhile." "Kagura," growled Inu Yasha as Yusuke studied the enemy. "Hmp, wait till I tell Jin that he's got a long lost sister." "Kagura!" Shouted Miroku, "You know it's foolish to take us all on by yourself! What is your scheme!"
She landed in front of the group, "Come on, houshi. You know I wouldn't be that stupid. Naraku has known about your new comrades for quite some time now. So we made a little truce of our own." Just then a fox woman appeared at the wind mistress' side. Her ruby eyes glazed at the group almost in pity. Inu Yasha removes Tetsusaiga from it's sheath, "An Ice Fox? Don't make me laugh Kagura!"
Kurama gasped in surprise, he knew this kitsune very well, "Ria?" The kitsune glared at the red head with pure rage, How dare he act like he knew her. That bastard that posed as Youko. "TOO SLOW!" Shouted Kagura as she waved her deadly air blade attack at the group. Inu Yasha blocked her assault with his gigantic blade as Yusuke sprang over him and nailed Kagura with an onslaught of speedy punches. Ria knowing that her comrade was in danger hurled a blast of razor sharp snow flakes at Yusuke.
"Yusuke, Look out!" Shouted Sango as she hurled her Hirakotsu to block the attack. Hiei sprang out of the trees behind the winter vixen baring his blade. The fox smelt him and formed an ice blade on her arm blocking the attack just in the nick of time. Miroku grabbed his beads ready to unleash his Wind tunnel when Kuwabara shouted, "Watch out! Freaky Bees!" Miroku wrapped the beads securely only to find himself surrounded by Naraku's Poisonous insects.
Kuwabara found this highly amusing however, now he could put his spirit fly swatter to good use. Kurama was currently whip lashing his way toward Ria when the shrill cry of Shippo pierced his ears. One of the insects had got a hold of the tiny kit. Fish Demons sprang from the trees tackling Sango. Kagome pulled out her arrows fired at the slimy fiends.
Kagura threw the Spirit detective away from her shouting, "You scoundrel! Didn't your mother teach you not to hit a lady?" Yusuke spat on the ground, "My mother is a drunk, she wouldn't give a damn what so ever!" "Yusuke!" shouted Inu Yasha as he swung the Tetsusaiga at the wind woman, "Get out of my way!"
Yusuke was barely able to dodge the attack while Kagura caught the full blast. "DAMN IT DOG-BREATH! Did you forget that I'M ON YOUR SIDE!" The hanyou snarled, "This ain't none of your business Grease-monkey!" Kagome fired a couple of more arrows at the on coming fish men only be grabbed from behind by a pair of strong armor covered arms, "Hello, miko. We finally meet."
Kagome unleashed her purifying energy only to have the voice laugh, "This armor loves holy power. In fact, you just given me a boost, wench!" Suddenly she was lifted off the ground and being whisked away by the strange demon. "INU YASHA!" she screamed. Inu Yasha and Yusuke heard her cries as Yusuke shouted, "Mutt! Don't just stand there! Save Kagome!" The Dog growled at the teen, "You haven't fought her before! She'll cream you!" "I fought some one like her! Now move your ass!"
Inu Yasha took off after Kagome shouting, "You better be alive when I get back!" Ria and Hiei met each others attacks almost perfectly, when they suddenly split by the crack of a whip. It was Kurama (with a frightened Shippo attached to his shoulder). 'Hiei' Kurama said to his friend telepathically, 'Kagome is in danger, you must rescue her. I'll handle, her.'
Hiei smirked, 'Of course, I can see that she must have been one of your old girl friends. You two have fun now.' 'That was not amusing, Hiei." With that Hiei sprang away as Ria prepared her battle stance. "Shippo," Said Kurama softly as he handed him a plant, "Take this shield Flower and hide. It will protect you while I battle." Shippo knew this plant very well, it was the same type of plant that his father had given him when they where attack by the Thunder Brothers. Shippo began to tear up as he fled into the bushes.
Kurama side stepped in front of the kit protecting his escape route if the vixen tried any thing. She brushed her white hair away from her face as she hissed, "You don't have to worry, boy. I don't attack cubs." His eyes met hers, "Ria why are you doing this? You where once a free-willed person." She roared at him, "I don't know you! Stopped acting like you know me, Youko poser!"
"But, I am Youko." "NO! Youko Kurama was killed over fifty years ago! I SAW HIM DIE!" Kurama held out his hand, "Ria, you have a nose. You know you can smell me." She blasted a rush of sub-zero air at him as her eyes flashed blue, "FAKER!" Kurama held out his hand, "Ria, where is the locket I gave you, dear friend? The red crystal on the golden chain? It was our symbol of friendship, remember?"
Suddenly tears streamed down her pale face. Whether it was anger, happiness or grief the kitsune male could not tell. "I can't believe you've turned into a human... And you left me for dead...now I'm just a slave to the dirtiest creature on the planet! I-I-I HATE YOU!" With that the vixen assaulted the crimson haired teen with vicious attacks.
As the battle raged on a figure in a baboon suite watch with wicked pleasure. "Everything is going according to plan. Soon I will be rid of Inu Yasha and that girl forever."

"Kagome!" Inu Yasha called out while dodging various insects that came his way. "This way doggy." Called the voice of the Kidnapper as he sprang in front of him almost in a taunting manner. "BASTARD!" roared Inu Yasha as increased his speed. The man stopped at the edge of a cliff over looking a rapid river, "This looks like the proper area," Said the man as he turned to face Inu Yasha. "Proper area for what? What are you ploting?" Screeched Kagome who had been clawing and pounding him the entire time.
The Captor threw the miko to the ground with his mighty
arm and spoke to the Hanyou, "Greetings Prince of the Western
Lands, Inu Yasha. I hope you enjoyed my little welcoming party"
"so, you're working for Naraku?" The fish tossed his pale face in
laughter, "Work for? Nay, you foolish half-wit. We simply made a
deal. If I destroy you and this woman he'll aid me in the
Gathering to gain Sesshomaru's territory."
"Feh," the hanyou spat, "That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. Who the hell are you any way?" The fiend took a bow, "Pardon my rudeness. My name is Balorog Le Famori, lord of the Northern lands of the England. I shall be your Executioner."
"That's about the lamest thing I have ever heard but, if it's a fight you want then I'll sure as hell give it to you!" With that, the dog man flew at the Fish King with his razor sharp claws. The Fiend, just stood there as the claws of his opponent just simply bounced off his black armor, "What's the matter half- breed? Your big brother could have clawed this with one swoop."
"BASTARD!" Roared Inu Yasha as he began to pummel Balorog in rage. "I won't let you hurt Kagome!" The demon smiled as he zipped behind the dog man, "I won't harm a hair on her dirty little head...you and the other hand..." In a flash the Fish man grabbed the Tetsusaiga away from the Inu and held it in his own hands.
"Tetsusaiga? It's not rejecting him?" Kagome screamed in horror. The Fish man chuckled deviously, "Eating human children really does come in handy, I can use their flesh to hold this marvelous blade. You don't mind if I keep it do you?" Inu Yasha and Kagome watched in horror as the fish man's skin crawled with the faces of children, human and demon, screaming in horror.
"Die, Inu Yasha!" He shouted as he blasted the Wind scar at the helpless hanyou. Inu Yasha flew backwards as the blades tore into his flesh, as rivers of crimson bucketed from his body. 'No,' he thought as his body flung limply onto the ground, 'I can't die. Not like this. I have to save Kagome!"
His body began to burn with his father's demonic blood. He had to live, he had to destroy HIM to live. His thoughts went blank, his pain had gone...the only thing left now was the urge to kill. His fangs glinted as he licked his claws in delight. Kagome grasped her chest, oh no...not this again.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hiei rushed though the trees in a panic, where the heck was Kagome and Inu Yasha? He could lock onto their scent because of the various demons that exploded near him. The scent of their blood cover his body. His mind began to become confused.
Suddenly hundreds of poison insects came out of no where, many of them stinging the koorime as he fought his way through them. The poison quickly crawled through his veins slowing the Forbidden one greatly. 'The Jagan you fool! Use your Jagan to find her!' His mind called to him.
He unveiled the Jagan as it's power coursed through out him. Kagome was near, he had to make it. Or was it already too late?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Balorog smiled as he watched the mad Inu Yasha dash toward him. As his target came closer he opened his mouth and sprayed the dog with a thick ink like substance, blinding the dog. Inu Yasha tore at his face trying to rid his senses from the goo. "Step one is complete. Now for step two..." Cooed the fish man as he stepped toward Kagome, "Simply beautiful fight wouldn't you agree miko?"
Kagome growled as she picked up a rock hurled smack dab at the Fish king's Face. Balorog hissed in pain as he dropped the Tetsusaiga and cradled his face, "My-MY BEAUTIFUL FACE!" Kagome made a mad dash toward the Tetsusaiga only to have her arm seized by a very pissed Balorog, "YOU WICKED BITCH!" He back handed her across the face with his gauntlet, "I was going to have some fun with you but now I think you deserve an even worse Kind of death!"
His mouth gaped open as a thick smog covered the miko with his scent. Then he threw the miko at the hanyou's feet, "You will have the honor of being Inu Yasha's first victim. Goodbye, miko witch!" With that, the Fish man disappeared, leaving Kagome with the berserk Inu Yasha. "Sit!" she screamed but the trinket had no effect on the insane dog. Kagome crawled backwards toward the cliff as Inu Yasha inched closer, a demented smile stretched across his face. This looked like it was the end for Kagome.

Meanwhile, the battle between Yusuke and the others raged. Bodies of lower class demons fell left and right staining the ground with green blood. Suddenly A loud Roar pierced through the air as the young Ferry Woman, Botan raced above them. "Yusuke! I knew it you'd come!" She landed by the Spirit Detective as the rest of the fighter glanced up at the Colossal (three legged) Dog.
The beast glared down at the group and growled with it's poisonous slobber dripping from it's mouth. It had smelt the three people he hated the most in the world, Naraku, Inu Yasha and Balorog. Ria gasped and shouted to her comrades, "RETREAT!" Kagura took to the air with her feather as the other demons sprinted away into the woods.
Kurama grabbed Ria's arm before she could move, "Ria my friend, tell me! Why are you so vengeful?" She slapped his arm away and pointed to her slave collar, "THIS IS WHY!" Kurama's eyes widened in shock, "No..." Without another word, she disappeared into the forest leaving the kitsune to grieve for his friend.
As soon as the enemies left, Sesshomaru returned to his normal size. Botan huddled behind Yusuke gripping his arm tightly. "It's seems as if the bitch lead me right to you. It was the right choice to kidnap her." Yusuke clenched his fist, "What the hell did you just Botan? You pissed me of for the last time you overgrown FRENCH POODLE!"
Sesshomaru glanced about and saw that he was clearly out numbered before he could open his mouth, a loud voice interrupted them, "That will be quite enough." Behind Sesshomaru came a Giant Raccoon-dog. She stood over six foot with a giant wrench attached to her back. Sango gasped, "Seiko-sama! It is an honor to met you Mistress of the Mountains!"
The old youkai smiled but disappeared quickly as she turned to Sesshomaru, " Sesshomaru-sama, one of my messengers has received a letter from that monkey-bastard Naraku. Apparently, he has joined forces with Balorog and they are entering the Gathering together...with the cursed jewel the Shikon no Tama."
Sesshomaru grumbled, "Seiko, as you can see this Sesshomaru has already figured this out for himself." She looked at the group in front of her, "Are these your fighters? Wasn't your brother with them?"
Suddenly the group took off leaving the mountain youkai and the Inu Lord behind. "Was it something I said?" Sesshomaru took a whiff of the and replied, "Inu Yasha has transformed once more. I better take care of him before he kills one of my fighters." Seiko scratched her head as she and Sesshomaru followed behind.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Inu Yasha...It's Kagome...please snap out of it!" Kagome pleaded as the Psycho simply laughed as he readied his claws. "Nice try fish man. But now...it time for you to die!" Kagome saw the claws come down upon her..she closed her eyes knowing that it would end soon. She just wished it wasn't Inu Yasha that was killing her. Suddenly she felt her body being pushed off the cliff as warm liquid splashed all over her body...funny wasn't it supposed to hurt when you get torn into pieces. Then she felt her body being embraced gently as she continued to fall.
She opened her eyes. Hiei had taken the hit for her and now the two of them where free falling down into a wild river...Inu Yasha laughing victoriously above, never knowing the pain it would cause him later.

Mika: Will Hiei and Kagome survive the river? Will Inu Yasha turn back to normal? What is the story behind Kurama and his old friend Ria? What the heck happened to Shippo? Will Sesshomaru be able to get Inu gang and the Spirit Detectives to join him or will Naraku and Balorog be left to roam freely?
