(A/N): Shout out to MonsterUnderTheSink for reviewing! Only 10ish more chapters to the next book. Sadly Kushina did not want to cooperate with me. But Action does come outside of Iron. Promise.

Book 1: Land of Iron
Chapter 37:
Women
InuYasha scowled as they herded him from the rings towards the old bastard's side like a good little dog. His lip curled.
"Attention." The crowd had grown louder at the pause in the bouts but the bastard's voice carried easily and quieted them to silence.
"We have the rare opportunity to view a demonstration of ability between samurai and shinobi in peaceful times." His right hand raised and InuYasha craned his neck to view the farthest side of the ring. "Five of our best swordsman stand to test the mettle of the shinobi blade." The old bastard's lips quirked in a bemused smile as his left hand rose. "Challenged to demonstrate this ability is Uzumaki Kushina, Konohan chunin and heir to the Uzushio swordplay legacy."
InuYasha blinked when a woman emerged from the crowd.
Hell her hair could rival Sesshomaru's locks in impracticality.
He arched a brow when she didn't bother to look at her opponents. She seemed to be searching for something.
Her gaze fell on him.
She beamed.
It reminded him a bit too much like Kagome on a mission for his comfort. InuYasha shuddered.
Something he was grateful for in SanrÅ was the lack of crazy women.
