Kitsune-MiMIK - I'm glad that you liked the last chapter and as you wished here is the next update my dear!

Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha

Kaiyou and Koudo are mine however:D muahaha!

"I can't believe the beauty of this cave," Sango said sounding a little awestruck. Vines were lacing the walls of the cave and flowers of every colour of the rainbow were in random patterns from the vines. It was unlike any plant that she had seen before, a strange light seemed to be admitting from the centre of them giving them just enough light to see respectfully well. The water that was once murky and to their waist was now sparkling clear and was now at their ankles warm and inviting.

"Yes…Beautiful," mumbled Miroku looking at Sango more then his surroundings. They then continued walking in silence taking in everything around them.

After about a half an hour had passed they came to a fork in their path, "Which way?" asked Sango looking each way and then to her companion.

"I'm not sure," replied Miroku repeating the actions that Sango had just done. He was just about to open his mouth to give a suggestion on their situation when he saw movement above him. His head shot towards the movement instantly as he watched the vines move in snake like fashion towards the left opening. "Well apparently Earth wants us to go left," stated Miroku still looking at the now motionless vines above him a little wary.

"Apparently," Sango agreed and then started down their new path. Once they were a couple steps through the opening the vines covered the entrance as quick as lightning. "Well no turning around now," Sango said, "I'm just glad that these flowers are still in here, I just wish there was more of them. Their numbers are decreasing." Miroku nodded in agreement.

An hour passed of them walking down the twisting path thinking that the damn cave would go on forever, the beautiful flowers that once lighted there path were now gone and how they wished that one would just spout up and give them at least a little light. "There has got to be something soon or we've been walking in…" Sango said her sentence stopped dead, the last thing that was heard was a short quick intake of breath and then silence.

"Sango?" Miroku was confused and worried what happened to Sango and why she wasn't answering. He reached out to her in the darkness to see if she was still ahead of him but there was nothing. "Sango where are you?" he yelled on the verge of hysteria. He then started to run forwards but on his third step he found more then he bargained for, his foot connected with nothing and he was going down and he was going down fast. He was engulfed in water and was at its mercy as it rushed him down this way and that down the small tunnel. A minute passed feeling like an eternity his lungs were begging him to let in sweet air to fill them. Thinking that he was about to drown he was thrown from the tunnel, he rolled a couple of feet his robes clung to his body and his staff was so tightly clenched in his fist his knuckles were white. He slowly pushed himself up coughing and spitting water from his mouth and breathing in the sweet air around him his mind was debating on ever going swimming ever again. Once he stopped coughing he started to look around and his eyes immediately saw Sango starting to come towards him. "Oh Sango I thought that I lost you!" whaled the Monk covering the unexpected slayer in a large wet hug.

"Get off me monk," blushed Sango and to her great surprise he let go of her not even trying to be perverted. "I found a way out of this place when I saw you come in," Sango said quickly changing the subject to lessen the heat in her cheeks.

"I see that the Water Element gave us a nice a push in the right direction as well." Miroku stated as he followed Sango who was already walking in the direction of the way out of the dark tavern. The opening was bright and looked like the cave walls when they first entered unlike the cold and clammy ones they left minutes ago. When they walked through the opening nothing could have braced them for the sight before them.

Their eyes first saw a majestic throne of ice, sitting on it was a woman looking completely bored, her hair went to her shoulder and was teal it flowed past her face flipping out at the right spots to enhance its beauty. Her skin had a hint of light blue within it and had silver markings on her exposed skin swirling and circling this way and that, the marks on her face were just below her deep blue eyes and resembled icicles. Around each bicep was an emerald band about a fingers width it was connected to her halter, which was also emerald, and split right about her navel and went to her hips. There was also a lighter fabric of green connecting to the emerald bands and unlike the tight top this fabric was loose and a strip of it no bigger then her hand flowed down and connected to her wrists with another emerald band. Around her hips hung an emerald skirt which had a slit in the front that ended mid thigh revealing her long slender yet toned legs and was outlined in the same light green material from her arms.

Next to her looking rather deep in thought was another woman leaning against the throne. Her hair was chestnut brown and run straight down to her back a few pieces on each side of her face outlining it. Like the other woman she too was beautiful her skin was tan and her eyes were a lighter brown then her hair, from the corner of her eyes were green markings that ran out like vines on her cheeks and just a bit above her eyes. Her cloths looked like they were coming out of her skin like roots entwining within each other forest green and deep brown. It was like a form fighting gown flowing to the ground seeming to go into the ground itself. Encircling her arms was dark green shale that seemed to be attached to her skin. Simple yet beautiful at the same time but you couldn't help but feel the wisdom radiating off of her. Than as if coming out of her trance the woman looked up at her two visitors with a grin and, to Sango's amazement, began to walk towards them the root like dress unhinging from the ground and flowing around her feet. "Welcome, we were both greatly impressed by both of your intellect and strength," her voice was filled with knowledge but was beautiful.

The other woman jumped up from the throne and seemed to flow towards them stopping beside her friend, her eyes wide with excitement a smile had graced her lovely features as well. "It's nice to finally meet you both my name is Kaiyou or as you may know me Water and this is Koudo or Earth," her voice was as soothing as a bubbling broke, you could sit there forever and just listen to her.

Miroku bowed and Sango followed suit, "I am Miroku and this is Sango," Miroku said keeping his voice as regal as he could.

"Why have you come so far and faced so many dangers to see us?" asked Kaiyou motioning for them to stand up straight and to look them in the eyes rather then their feet. Even though it wasn't her feet that Miroku was really looking at.

"You see our friend has been put under a curse by Lunius and we need your help in defeating him," Sango said still bowing in front of the great Elements.

Kaiyou giggled at this, "My dear you may raise you are a guest and the same is for you Miroku."

"Thank you," Sango and Miroku said in unison.

"If you are asking us to fight with you, we can not it is not our battle," stated Koudo with little emotion on her face.

"Is there nothing that you can do?" pleaded Miroku, "We have been sent by Lumius, and he said that you are the only ones with the power to help us. Please, anything would be helpful."

Koudo walked in front of the monk, as she did so a small trail of flowers popped up behind her as she walked as the width of her dress. "I have something in mind for you monk," said Koudo, "You are wise and strong, I'm rather proud of how you took down my Guardian." Koudo smiled and then looked at his staff out of the corner of her eye, which suddenly turned emerald like her Guardian's were. She reached out and touched the top of the staff; plants from the earth beneath them twisted and twined up the staff Miroku let go instantly watching them engulf it. They soon bloomed away from it revealing the now green gold staff. Miroku stared at his weapon in awe, when he touched it he could feel the power pulsing through it. "The attack I give you is called Poison Spears," she said looking at the Monk waiting for his reaction.

Miroku kept looking from Koudo to his staff he was in shock; the Earth element complimented him and gave him a gift! He then looked at her in the eyes and then said sweetly, "You beauty is only outshined by your generosity." Koudo's smile grew to twice its size and was then joined by Miroku's cocky grin.

Sango rolled her eyes at the scene before her, he couldn't help hitting on anyone even the Elements, even though she couldn't' blame him completely they were gorgeous. Then Sango started getting a prickly feeling on the back of her neck as if she was being watched, she turned to head only to come face to face with a smiling Kaiyou. A deep blush found its way to her cheeks as she suddenly found the cave floor more interesting.

Kaiyou laughed and glided around Sango looking her over, "My dear, your ability to be quick on your feet and grace in battle astounds me, not to mention your strength." Sango couldn't believe what she was hearing, she was getting complimented by the best woman warrior, sure the Earth Element could fight but Water was pure power and grace. Her thoughts were then pushed aside by the melody of Kaiyou's voice. "Now where to put my gift," she continued to walk around Sango, "Got it! Your weapon!" she said while picking up the Hiraikotsu with ease. She held the weapon close to her body and closed her eyes letting a tear from each eye fall upon the Hiraikotsu, as each tear landed on the boomerang more water seemed to come from each tear until it had engulfed the bone and then dripped off turning it from its off white to a now baby blue. Little droplets were still running off of it as Kaiyou handed it back to Sango. "My gift is called Revenge of the Tide," she replied with a large grin.

"Thank you so much," Sango said bowing slightly to Kaiyou. She could feel the aura that the Hiraikotsu was giving off, the strength was unbelievable.

"How do we use these gifts?" asked Miroku, eyes full of excitement as he glanced back and forth from Kaiyou and Koudo.

"We…don't know," blushed Kaiyou, looking over to Koudo for help.

"The only thing that I can guess is that it will be known when you need it most," said Kouda a little fluttered; she really wasn't use to not knowing something.

Sango took in this information and then another question arose in her mind, "How long will we have these gifts or once our mission is complete will they vanish?"

"As long as Kaiyou and I are living or something happens to us you will always have this to help you, you have earned it both of you, that and our respect," Koudo replied with a smile looking from Kaiyou to the party of two in front of her. Her appearance now was a lot less tense since she was able to answer another question.

"I just wish there was more that we could do to help you," replied the Water element with a shrug.

"There is," said Miroku walking in between the Elements taking a hand of theirs into one of his. His actions resulted in an odd look from each female in the room. "Wont you two heavenly beings bare my children?"

Sango watched as the Element's eyes grow wide at this question, she could only guess that they had never been asked this question before. So before they could do anything to the lecher Sango back handed the monk in the back of his head resulting in him dropping their hands. "What my perverted friend here is trying to say," growled Sango, "if you could help us fight that would help us greatly, wouldn't you fight for someone you loved?"

Suddenly all the water around them turned to ice, "Love?" snapped Kaiyou, the voice that was once soothing was now roaring with anger.

"Lumius told us about that," Miroku said, "but you are both wrong it was Lunius who tricked you. He used your weapons against them and vise versa." He was backing up towards Sango away from the now frustrated Water Element.

"Enough," snapped Koudo causing the ground to shake, apparently Kaiyou wasn't the only one who still had bitter feelings about the past.

"I see," Miroku said looking at Kaiyou, who's deep blue eyes were now emerald.

"We understand," said Sango sadly, "Could you please send us back to Lumius? I want to get back as soon as possible to help Kagome."

"Done, we wish you luck on your journey, and we will be watching you," said Kaiyou, her soothing voice returning. Then in a blink of an eye the Monk and Slayer were gone. Kaiyou suddenly screamed in anguish, her heart was still broken from before, and her heart was becoming more and more like the ice that she could create. The ice throne that she had once sat upon broke into shards and scattered across the room braking into even smaller shards as they hit the walls.

"I know Kaiyou, I feel the pain too, maybe they will see what have we have not been able to," cooed Koudo as she put a hand on her life long friend's shoulder.

"Your right," Kaiyou said while tears of ice ran down her cold skin, "there is nothing we can do but watch and wait, but if what they say is true…"

"Lunius will wish he was never created…" growled Koudo, as the whole cave shook and her eyes like Kaiyou's turned into the murderous emerald.
