Disclaimer: I do nto own any of the Inu Yasha characters though Korui is my own character.

Kitsune: Sorry it took so long to up date. I had a wired long writers block. I got feature chapters done already so I will be up dating soon.


Chapter 4: Oops

Korui walked through the forest, bored out of her mind. "Where the heck is this shrine?" She whined a bit. She decided to climb a tree to get a better look around the area. She found one that seemed fairly tall and easily climbed it. When she got to the higher branches she looked around. Her senses where sharper, allowing her to see farther distances and smell things a normal person couldn't. "I could get use to this body...though I could do without the tail."

A slight wind had picked up making the tree branches creek as they moved. She spotted a shrine at the base of a mountain. "Ah, that must be the one." She jumped down from the tree and started to run to it.


The wind had carried her scent to where Sesshoumaru, Rin and Jaken where. He sniffed the air. "Hmmm." The scent seemed familiar to him but he couldn't place it.

"What is it Master Sesshoumaru?" Rin asked noticing something had caught his attention. Sesshoumaru didn't answer.

'There is someone here that has great strength...the scent is familiar but can't place it.' He looked to the two. "We are changing coarse, there is something I need to see." He turned and started towards the Mt. Hakuria shrine.


Naraku watched her through Kianna's mirror. "Hmmm...who is she and why is she involved with that miko and pathetic half demon and their petty friends..." He studied her for a bit. "She has a demonic fell about her but yet there is a pure aurora of a priestess about her. Kagura, Kianna." Kagura and Kianna both knelt before him. "I want you to follow this new comer and bring her to me. I would like to have a little...talk with her."

They nodded and went to do as he commanded. Kagura took a feather from her hair and threw it up. It expanded and both of them flew off to the shrine.


Korui approached the shrine and took her shoes off before she entered the shrine, sliding the door open. It was dim inside. She left the door open a bit to let in some light. Incants were burning and little papers of protection had been placed around the shrine. "looks like someone still comes here..." She said quietly as she looked around the run down shrine. In the center of the room was a statue of a young woman. Her hands were out in front of her holding a white book. There was something on the cover but she couldn't see it that well from where she stood. She walked closer to it. Slips of protection charms started to glow blue. As she passed one it felt like she had walked through a wall of water.

A tingling feeling spread through her body. Her claws shrank down to normal as well as her canine teeth dulling as well. Her sight became less sharp, normal for a human. Her hair turned a midnight black, her red streaks disappearing. The slight tingling feeling in her fore head burn a bit as well as a marking appeared on it. Her green eye turned a dark purple like her other eye. She look almost exactly like the icon if the priestess that stood holding the book. She walked up to the book and studied it.

On the cover was a black wolf with white markings outlined in gold. Its pose was like was guarding the book. The wolf did not have it teeth bared as if it was going to attack but its eyes held some glint to them. As if it knew something you didn't. there was a lock the bound the book closed. She touched the lock lightly with the tips of her fingers. It started to glow a light blue, getting so bright that she had to shield her eyes from it. She felt the weight of something pull on her left arm slightly. When the light faded, she slowly put down her hand. As her eyes adjusted back to the dimness of the room she saw a small wolf curled in a ball floating above the book. It eyes were closed, giving the approach that it was asleep but it soon opened it eyes. They were a amber yellow, shining bright. Its fur was black with white markings in its legs and muzzle. It uncurled and gently fell on top of the book no bigger then a small cat. He looked at her with curiosity in its eyes, tilting its head a bit to the right.

Korui was hesitant a bit a she reached out to touch him. He yipped and jumped into her arms taking her by surprise. She just caught the little wolf before it started to lick her face wildly. She calmed it and wiped her face "Eww…" She muttered slightly. She set the pup at her feet. That was when she realized a bracelet on her left wrist.

"What?…" It was a silver cuff bracelet, circling her entire wrist about 3 inches long. A pinkish purple, circular jewel was set into the silver. There where characters on it but non she recognized. She tried to slip it off but it was too narrow to get over her hand. She struggled with a few moments then gave up. She would deal with it when she got back to the village.

Her attention went back to the book. The wolf on the cover had disappeared. "What…where did it go?" She looked back at the pup at her feet. It had the same marking of that of the wolf on the cover of the book. She looked back at the book. There was a lock on the side that bound it closed. The funny thing was that there was no key hole or anything of the sort to unlock it. She picked it up and looked it over. It was fairly heavy. She touched the book with her finger and it started to glow. There was a click and the lock had opened. She slowly opened it. The first page was blank as well as the rest when she flipped through it. "This place gets weirder and weirder every second…" She closed the book and the lock clicked closed. "Well, Kaede told me to bring it back with me." She put it in her backpack and made sure there was nothing else she was suppose to get. She then tuned and walked out of the shrine, the little wolf scampering after her.

She sat down on the step and put her shoes back on. The wolf sat next to her, its tail wagging a bit as it watched her. It yipped happily and licked her hand. She couldn't help but smile at the little guy. She scratched his head and picked him up. "Might as well bring you too." She stood up and walked right into an armored chest. She looked up and amber gold eyes looked back at her a little fiercely.

"Oh, I'm sor-" She was cut off by a little toad like creature standing next to the man stepped up and started to yell
at her.

"How dare you run into Lord Sesshouamru-sama, you are to knell in his presents." He ranted on.

The toad was getting on her nerves a bit and looked like as well as the mans nerves too. She grabbed the staff he was holding.

"Hey give that back you wretched wench!" He yelled jumping up trying to grab it back.

"Wrong words toad." She grinned evilly. "FORE!" She swung the staff hitting him up side the head sending him into some trees a good 50 feet away. "GOOOOOOOOAL!" She yelled holing up her arms. "And the crowd goes wild." She cupped her hands around her mouth and made a sound like a crowd in a stadium. "Ahhhh!"

"You know you just hit my servant." Came a cool deep voice. She turned to face the man.

"Sorry about that." She handed the staff to a girl who was wearing a yellow and orange kimono with a green sash. She had half of her hair p in a pony tail to the side of her head. She looked about 8 or 9.

The man was the strangest sight she has ever seen beside Inu Yasha. He had silvery white hair down to his knees. He had a blue crescent moon on his fore head and two magenta stripes on each cheek. His eyes were and ember gold color calm yet fierce. He wore a white kimono with red flowers under his armor. A fluffy white tail run under his arm, over his shoulder and hung down behind him. A yellow and blue belt was at his waist and held two swords to his hip.

"Well I'll be going now." She went to pass him but he stepped in front of her. "Excuse me." He would move. So she turned and walked the other way. He jumped in her way.

Kagura and Kianna watched from the air.

"You are not going any where."


Thats it for chapter 4. R&R Please!
