"Are we there yet!" Shippo groaned. They had been walking around wondering where to actually go. Inuyasha refused to admit that he had gotten himself and the others lost.
"NO!" He yelled, looking back at the fox demon. Shippo sighed and sat down. "Inuyasha we've been walking for hours! Where are we even going!" Kagome asked him. He was about to reply when he…well disappeared. Kagome gasped and looked to her left, where Inuyasha AND Sesshoumaru were being held by their throats by a demon. It was obviously a he and he was bald and green and…kind of scaly. Kagome and the others rushed to them, in time to listen to what the demon had to say.
"Where is the girl!" the demon hissed. Inuyasha tried to wriggle out of his grasp.
"What girl!" he shouted. The demon was about to reply when an arrow shot at him, hitting his sleeve and pinning him to a tree. Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha were dropped and looked to see who their rescuer was. Inuyasha was expecting to see Kagome but instead saw a blonde girl in the shadows. Her hair was braided and swayed from the slight breeze. She looked to be about 18 and had dark blue eyes. What confused him was that although she seemed to be from the feudal era like Inuyasha she was dressed in a school outfit like Kagome's. The only difference was that it was white and purple instead of white and green. She didn't wear knee socks but had purple flat shoes on her feet.
"Looking for someone?" she asked the demon, stepping out of the shadows.
"Maika." The demon growled. The girl whose name appeared to be Maika took a step closer.
"Yeah that's me!" she said. The demon growled. "You traitor! What are you doing here?" the demon yelled at her. Maika shook her head.
"What else?" she said. She got up to the demon and to everyone's surprise kissed him. Kagome's eyes widened. "That was REALLY unexpected." She said. Even Sesshoumaru seemed surprised.
"Eww…" Shippo said, disgusted. Maika pulled away and the demon slumped down, dead.
"Getting revenge." She whispered softly. Maika dug through the demon's pockets.
"Ugh come on! I didn't just kiss Scale-face here to find that there's no clue!" she said. She sulked and kicked the demon.
"Stupid idiot. Of course he wouldn't carry a clue and be out looking for me." she muttered. Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru had stood up and she was now in a circle within the group. Maika looked around and smiled.
"Hi!" she said. Kagome looked at her.
"Who are you?" she asked her. Maika blinked a couple times.
"Um…I think we all figured out myname was Maika." She told her, pointing over her shoulder to the dead demon. Kagome sweat-dropped and looked at her.
"Um yeah…" she said. Inuyasha took a turn to look at her.
"What was that!" he yelled, pointing to the demon. Maika looked back,expecting to see that the demon had moved or something when she realized just what he was talking about.
"You mean the kiss?" she asked him. Inuyasha and the others nodded.
"Hee hee. Maybe I should explain the whole story." She said.
"A couple months ago I was in my village when Naraku attacked. He needed an heir because he expected he might not go on to finish his mission. He and his goons decided to burn the village when they found me, hiding with a couple of friends. He kidnapped me and put a spell on me that made me forget where my village was, incase I decided to try and run away. I wasn't too happy with this and cheated on him. Well I didn't really cheat, seeing as how he wasn't even my boyfriend in the first place. But he caught me and cursed me with Deadly Kiss. So now my boyfriend's dead, there's a bounty on my head, I'm trying to get revenge, and on top of all that I'm completely lost!" Maika told them. Shippo looked at her.
"What are you doing here then?" he asked her."I'm trying to find my village but his spell worked." She said, unhappily. She then noticed Kilala sniffing her.
"Hi there!" she said,kneeling down to her. Kilala responded with another sniff.
"Pooh!" she said, taking a step back and looking at her.
"You want to meet Choonala?" Maika asked her. Sango scooped up Kilala. "Who's that?" she asked. Maika got up and pointed over her shoulder.
"He's right here!" she said. Everyone looked around.
"Um…where?" Miroku asked her. Maika turned around and sighed. She looked behind the tree she was standing in front of.
"Choonala! Get over here!" she said. A little cat demon that lookeda lot like Kilala poked out his head. It had blue markings with a crystal pendant on it. Choonala walked up to Kilala and they sniffed each other.
"Choo?" he asked.
"Pooh!" Kilala responded.
"He's really curious about the world", she said then sweat- dropped when Choonala ran behind her,
"he's just too afraid to take it on." She said, finishing her sentence. Maika finally noticed Inuyasha's dog ears and ran to him. She poked his ears and they twitched. Kagome looked at her. Inuyasha hated it when people did that.
"Ooooh they're cute!" she squealed. Inuyasha looked at her, surprised.
"You're pretty outgoing aren't you?" he told her. Maika nodded, still distracted by his ears. Inuyasha swatted her hands.
"Ok you really need to stop doing that." he told her. Maika shrugged then noticed Sesshoumaru.
"Hey you're pretty cute." She said. Sesshoumaru's eyes widened and everyone else fell back.
"WHAT WAS THAT!" Inuyasha asked her. Maika shrugged again.
"Hey I tell it like it is." She said. Sesshoumaru blinked twice at her. For once he agreed with his half-brother. She WAS outgoing.
Hee hee how's THAT for a surprise! Lol just kidding but poor Sesshy. He's probably not used to her outgoing-ness. Is that even a word...?
