I hope I did this justice...


At the Dry Well in the Feudal Era, the three powerful teens all moved out as one.

Kagome called out. " Watch out! There's hair all over the well, too!"

"She's right, it's filled to the brim." Tenzin said, as he lifted his sister onto the edge of the well.

"Are you saying that this Yura of the Hair is after us?" Inuyasha picked up next.

Kagome nodded. " Yes. Look, she took the Sacred Jewel fragment, yet she still comes after us!"

" Hold it! Did you say she took it?!"

Ignoring the handsome dog demon, she turned to the forest. " I can see several glowing strands of hair there. There's the main strand that's been bewitching the others. That means if we follow the main strand, we'll find Yura!" She pointed in a direction that even Tenzin was confused about. "That way!"

"That's why Kaede said we needed you, your sight is sharper than mine. I can't see the glowing threads, just the hair in general. " Tenzin muttered, pleased to have an excuse to have his sister nearby.

Inuyasha hurried out of the well, leaping across a pond, piggybacking KAG with Tenzin following suit just as fast. They ran through a forest, where suddenly they reached a campfire site. Corpses of warriors struck down with arrows surround a campfire.

"A bonfire…" Inuyasha said, his tone soft and almost pained.

Kagome gasped. "Their heads are gone!" And she was right, the corpses were mutilated entirely, with their heads clear off.

Inuyasha let KAG off his back and examined the corpses. "They're fallen warriors. They must've gotten tangled in the hair strands. Such bad luck.
He turned to Kagome. "Stop looking so depressed! And don't start whining about wanting to go home."

To both of their shock, for Tenzin was about to defend his sister, she just grabbed a bow and a quiver full of arrows. "I…thought I'd borrow this!"

They resumed their journey, hoping onto treetops, then onto a cliffside.

Inuyasha couldn't help but snark. " The arrows you shoot probably won't hit their targets." He had a point.

"How rude! If I practice, maybe…!"

"Practice? Did you practice?"

"From now on! Just watch me! I'm going to improve! The main lines are gathering. She's close!" Many strands of taut hair surround the trees in the forest. They tightened suddenly, slicing off the trunk that they were standing on. They leaped off. Bundles of hair surge towards them. "They're coming!" Kagome called out.

Inuyasha leaped into the air and Tenzin to the side. 'Let Kagome be his eyes, I would be in the way at the moment. I'll focus on myself.'

Tenzin dodged countless strands of hair, moving further and further towards the forest where the hairs received. He was fast, faster than the hairs and unlike Dog boy, he needed no help evading them. However, that came to an end when a thick bundle wrapped around his ankle, forcing him to his knees then into the air all at once.

He turned in air and saw that like him, Inuyasha was wrapped up, his ankles and wrists gather in powerful coils. "Inuyasha! Tenzin!" His sister called out, her voice hoarse with worry.

He yanked the hair, but only exhausted himself, he was fast but compared to Inuyasha he was pretty weak. There was no way he could break free on his own. Looking around, desperate to escape, he saw a massive orb of hair, a nest, that radiated powerful demonic energy in cold waves. He moved his gaze up, to follow the demonic energy. A stunningly beautiful woman with massive breasts, dressed kind of slutty, suddenly appeared, leaping, against the night sky. She landed on a few strands of hair similar to a tightrope in an admittedly impressive display. Strands of hair are coiled around her fingers, like a cat's cradle.

"Hmm… such a fine prey." She turned to him. " You too, your hair is so silky and soft, almost purple it's so dark. I must have it." Inuyasha grunted as he tried to free himself, but can't. "You're Inuyasha, aren't you?"

"So you're Yura? How do you know me?"

Yura smirked. "I heard the gossip in the wind. That a half-demon named Inuyasha, and a reincarnated Half demon are serving the reincarnation of a shrine maiden and helping her to protect for the Sacred Jewel."

Inuyasha almost growled. " What?! Me? Serving that brainless girl…? You've gotta be kidding me!"

"I see… Well, both of you are brainless." She took out the Sacred Jewel fragment from a pouch in her ample breasts. "Turning the Sacred Jewel into this." Inuyasha growled furiously at Yura. "In any case, I'll deal with you two and go look for the other fragments."

Scoffing, the dog boy looked at the demonic babe. "Deal with me? You're the one who'll rue the day you appeared before my eyes!" In one motion, the other half breed pulled and broke free from the hair around his ankles and left wrist. He then used the bundle of hair around his right wrist to swing towards Yura, clawing at her. Yura pulls out a red comb and combs a thick bundle of hair at Inuyasha.

"The same tactic over and over again!"The thick hair envelopes him and ties him down in the air again. "Damn it!"

Yurra appeared behind him." Such pretty hair… But you haven't taken care of it, have you? So many split ends."

" Shut up!" Inuyasha swung around to claw at Yura, but she fell backward in anticipation and somersaults gracefully onto another 'tightrope-hair' further away. The tightrope sinks lower under her weight, then she sprung back into the air, towards INU. Yura, in mid-flight, pulled out a sword to cut Inuyasha...

And an idea was born on Tenzin's stunned mind. 'That sword, I can feel demonic power in it. I can channel my power through it, and use it to fight her. I can't control when my poison stuff comes out, but maybe with that blade I can cut through her threads!

Desperate, he pushed as hard as he could, hoping that being distracted she wouldn't notice him and her binds would be slack. He called on all his power, every ounce of it, and before he knew it purple sparks flashed out, searing the hairs holding him enough that they snapped under the strain of his tugging. Throwing himself in the air, he collided with the woman just before she reached Inuyasha and socked her hard in the wrist.

"OW!" She called out, not sounding that hurt, even if she let go of the blade long enough for him to grab it. He grabbed a coil of hair and used it to land on a nearby cliff. "There's no point, that hair is demonically spelled, it won't cut my hair so really a weakling like you will find no use of it."

Growling, he watched as the sword glew a soft purple, his body enveloped in the purple aura as before only he felt more focused, more aware. "Try this! Toxic blade!" He called out, not sure why he said those words, and watched as an arc of purple energy sliced through countless strands of hair. They didn't snap as once, but immediately started to sizzle, making Yura gasp.

"Why you! Stop, your ruining everything. I'll shred you to pieces!" She flew at him, flicking her comb at him, making countless strands fly at him, only for something to fly past her, which takes her back. She lands on one tightrope to find out what happened, Tenzin following her gaze to see Kagome with a bow in her hand, in firing position, on the ground below.

"Release Inuyasha and by brother! Because I won't miss this time!" She readied another bow.

Yura whispered, but he still heard it. " The woman who disappeared from the well…?"

"Now! Hurry it up!"

"Release Inuyasha, you say? You two must be quite chummy!"

Inuyasha called out. " Fool! Forget me and get away!"

Yura smirked. " It's not that pretty, but I think I'll take her hair, too. What'll I do?"

Tenzin knew what was coming, real rage. His sister adored her hair. "Not that pretty"? I condition my hair everyday! Stop being so rude! " She fired her arrow, which flew... at Inuyasha, who dodged.

" Where are you aiming, stupid?!"

Then something amazing happened. The arrow hit the huge sphere of hair and Light expanded from the arrow. Before they knew it, The sphere of hair unravelled, skulls falling out of it. Skulls with hair still attached.

Yura called out. " No! All my victims…!"

Inuysha from his bound place, called out. " The heads of those fallen warriors we saw…"

"Your head will soon occupy a place there. All this fine silver-colored hair…I can't wait to control it. "Yura turned to his sister, holding her red comb. " Before that, however… You there! Woman!" She waved her comb and out came a ball of fire. "You scare me, so die!" The fire surged towards Kagome and engulf her. "How do you like my Elf Fire! You'll feel the heat all the way to your bones!"

Kagome fell, calling out. "He-help!"

"NO!" Somehow, with power that he never had before, Tenzin literally flew from his place and slashed at Yura, cutting her head straight off. Her neck sizzled purple and she collapsed. Tears fell from his face as his purple energy exploded, any strand it touched sizzled away. Inuyasha was freed in moments, falling to the ground with a horrified look on his face. "I ... I... " His voice morphed, turning darker and more metallic. "I will not... nothing will survive."

Then he exploded, his energy slamming into the cliffs, into Inuyasha sending him flying, but most importantly into Yura's nest. The damn then collapsed, sizzling and melting into ash and goop.

"No, my nest!" Yura's voice, so suddenly present, shocked Tenzin from his random attack, and he turned only to get punched in the face with enough force to send him flying. "First you steal my blade, then you cut off my head and now you destroy my lair? What lady will have a beast like you?"

Still floating, he was stunned to see an almost alright Yura looking at him with rage and annoyance. Her neck was not entirely attached any more, the purple energy was still sizzling at her throat. "Whatever you are, your poison is too strong, I can't heal entirely. I will rip you apart for that." And then she flew towards him, only to stop suddenly as a loud clinking sound filled the world.

They all turned towards it, and saw Kagome slamming an arrow home onto a red skull with threads stretching out of it. "This skull, it's the source of the hairs, I bet if I destroy it, she'll lose her power."

"That woman, I'll Kill her!" Yura called out but before she could move an inch, Tenzin lashed out with a kick that sent her head flying. She collapsed just as his sister succeeded in cracking the red skull. Light erupted from the skull. A red hemisphere within the skull breaks into two. Yura's body then, to his shock, disintegrated into nothing. Her clothes fall downwards to the ground.

His heart broken and healing at the sight of his still living sister, Tenzin flew down and pulled her into a hug that had her choking." Your alive, Sissy, I thought..." He felt no shame sobbing into her hair.

Kagome hugged him tight. "I'm fine, Inuyasha was right, this clothe is better than any armor." They floated to the ground and landed right next to the red skull. She leaned down and picked up one of the broken hemisphere, which turns out to be a red comb.

Inuyasha finally freed, hoped down to them. " So that's Yura's true form…"

"This red comb?"

"That's an Adornment Comb of the Dead. It was used to comb the hair of the dead…that's how it probably got bewitched. In this day and age, an enchanted comb or two is nothing to be surprised at. " He sighed, and stretched. "Get the jewel."

Kagome, noticing the pouch by Yura's clothes, grabbed it. " I found it. I wonder how long it'll take to accumulate them all?"

Inuyasha nodded. " Let's go, Kagome."

Kagome and Tenzin both looked at him in shock. " Huh?"

Inuyasha was confused. " What?"

Kagome explained. " It's the first time you said my name."

"So what?"

" Maybe you've decided to be a bit nicer to me?"

"Keh! Don't get cheeky! Who'd be chums with a girl like you?!"

"What?! And who was it that just saved you?"

While the two argued, Tenzin looked over his new blade. "Now I have a weapon, one I can protect Kagome with... and not worry about my powers ripping it apart. That's some progress at least."

:::

Inuyasha sighed, after bickering with Kagome, only to look discretely at Tenzin. 'What is he that his power could so easily overwhelm all of us? What could he have been in his past life to have this kind of power. I almost don't want to find out.'


Chapter end, tell me what you think in the reviews.

This was beyond fun.

Love, your Ninja Overlord,
