('Kay so I forgot to put on chapter 5 that all those powers they shouted out were shout outs to some of the ppl out there that put me on their fav list. I know not all of you were up there but that's why I have this chapter...and if not this one another one...and stuff...so that was my way of saying O.o )

Sesshoumaru

"Did you see that, Jenkins?" Sesshoumaru hadn't stopped talking about the fight since he'd entered his room. Kikyo was being nursed back to health. Inu Yasha was mopping around feeling bad about it. And everyone was talking about how badly Kagome and Kikyo had gotten into it. "She's great! Perfect for my plan. They almost killed eachother. If it hadn't been for that stupid Lady Kaede who interrupted them."

"But Lord Sesshoumaru, didn't you see? Lady Kaede wasn't the one to break the shield. Besides if they would've killed eachother you'd still have to have a priestess." Jenkins said simply.

"Lady Kaede didn't break the shield? Then who did Jenkins?" Sesshoumaru turned to the little man now cowering in the corner.

"I didn't see, m'Lord. I just saw it strike the shield. It came from with in the castle if that helps." Jenkins walked to the door. "I'll leave you now sir. I have other things to take care of."

Odd...who would want to stop them from fighting?

Meeeooow. Sesshoumaru looked down to see a small cat walk in.

"Sir, it's time for dinner." A small boy walked in after it. "C'mon boy you shouldn't be up here. Sorry Lord Sesshoumaru."

"It's fine Shippo. What's for dinner?" The little boy looked up with huge eyes.

"My favorite!-"

"I don't want any then. I'll be at the pub if anyone asks. I'm in the library if the teachers come looking. Got it?"

"Sure thing, Lord Sesshoumaru. Hey, Lord Sesshoumaru...if-if you're not going to eat your dinner can I have it?" Shippo big brown eyes twinkled a bit as his lower lip trembled a little. Puppy face always gets them.

Sesshoumaru walked out the door. "Sure, just don't do that again."

Shippo giggled and ran out the door. Both failed to notice the slimy demon entering through the window.

Now...where is it?

Sesshoumaru made it past the gates undetected. Walking down the dirt road he caught up to the usual gang of characters who ditched at dinner time. There was Kouga, Natsuko Nishi, Miroku, and of course Inu Yasha. They were all laughing and joking trying to cheer up Inu Yasha. He just got even more depressed when he saw Sesshoumaru coming.

"What are you doing here?" Inu Yasha spat.

"Funny I could ask you the same thing. I mean aren't you supposed to help your priestess recover?" Sesshoumaru smiled.

"You know what Sesshoumaru, I'm sick of it. Lets end it here and now!" Inu Yasha stopped and faced his brother.

"Didn't this happen already? I've seen this before. Ah, yes with Kikyo and Kagome. Kikyo started it as you are now and Kagome ended it as I will too. Only there won't be any of you to recover." Sesshoumaru's threat sent a chill down Inu Yasha's spine but he stood his ground.

"C'mon guys! Lets just go to the bar have a few drinks. Get a few women. And have a good time. How 'bout it huh?" Miroku stepped between Sessho and Inu. "Can't we all just get along?"

They started laughing. The hostility died down. And again they went down the street. People waved objects in their faces and asked them to buy. They walked into the pub called Twilight 9. It wasn't fancy, it wasn't big, but it was always booming with activity. Women, men, and thiefs hung out there. On occasion students from the castle as well. They sat down getting a table in the back. Where it was hard for people to see them but easy for them to see the people. Kouga ordered a root beer. Miroku some strange drink with orange juice. Natsuko Nishi ordered a lemonade. Inu Yasha ordered the Martini Surprise, which wasn't a martini at all but a bunch of old drinks put together. It was rumored the drink could knock out a Celestial Dragon with just a sip of it. Everyone figured Inu Yasha just wanted to get hammered. Sesshoumaru didn't order anything. He was still trying to figure out who shot the arrow.

"Kagome's soo cool! She's like one of the cool priestess girls and stuff." Natsuko Nishi said. The root beer was getting to her head. "I'm a priestess myself and I can't do most of the stuff she did. I'm mainly good for measuring stuff out and like killing things with a knife. Not that sissy bow and arrow crap."

"Kagome's kinda hot." Miroku said. "But she's nothing compared to Sango. That girl is hot. Natsuko, you're kinda hot too. Will you bear my child?"

Natsuko threw Miroku's mug hitting him square in the face. "You're drunk and a perve Miroku. God help the priestess who gets stuck with you."

"I wouldn't mind if a fine thing like Kagome got stuck with me." Kouga said, smiling at the thought of it. "I'm sure she wouldn't mind either."

"Yeah, is that before or after she dumps you. I mean didn't she turn you down before you even asked her out?" Natsuko said, remembering the scene.

"Shut up! Don't you have some Knight to tend to?" Kouga said, throwing a playfist at Natsuko. "I don't really care who I'm with. Just as long as I don't end up with Kanna. That girl freaks me the fuck out."

"Wait what exactly do you mean? Don't you just pick the girl you want." Sesshoumaru looked at the group. Everyone except for Inu Yasha, who was sort of dancing in front of them, started to laugh.

"Oh that's right. You weren't there for the initiation. Nope, the teach picks her for you." Kouga said.

"I hope I get Sango. Sango or you Natsuko." Miroku, who just recovered from his last hit, was on the floor again. Natsuko had thrown a fist.

"So I don't get to pick her?" Sesshoumaru asked. This had never entered his mind. He always thought he could pick the girl. He had done so with Kikyo, secretly but he had chosen to be paired with her.

At that moment Inu Yasha stumbled over. "Sesshimi suna sir. Theat heave session look two." And then he fell to the floor unconscious.

"What did he just say?" Kouga asked.

"I think he said, he messed with the wrong guy and could you help him out." Natsuko nodded towards a group of demons staring at them intently.

"Stupid Inu Yasha." Sesshoumaru stood and threw his brothers limp body to Miroku. Miroku, barely able to stand on his own two legs, went crashing to the floor as the dead weight of Inu Yasha added pain.

"We'll take that off yur hands." A big buff demon said.

"Tell anyone I defended my younger brother I'll kill you." Sesshoumaru told the guys behind him. "Now get ready to run."

"You ain't goin' nowhere!" A small pink demon shouted and ran to them.

"Smoke bomb!" Shippo appeared out of nowhere(really, i didn't even see him coming)and filled the room with smoke.

"Run!" Some one shouted. Shuffling feet, toppled chairs, and crashing dishes were the only things that gave way that they had escaped successfully.

Half way back to the castle they broke into laughter.

"I never pictured you as one to run away." Kouga said to Sesshoumaru.

"I didn't. I tripped and fell out of there." He said looking at Shippo. "What are you doing here you little runt?"

"The Geredian Knight Rhiannon wanted to speak to you. He's the only one who knows you aren't in school when you say you'll be. So he sent me to fetch you." Shippo explained, jumping on his shoulder. "What happened to Inu Yasha?"

(Sorry Geredian dude or actually dudette had to make u a man and for that i apologize again. if you want you can make aunt frita an old weird dog or something)

"Kikyo is what happened to that kid." Sesshoumaru said, still bothered that he wasn't allowed to choose his priestess. "Do you know what he wanted?"

"Nope." Shippo answered, laughing he added. "The Knight guy sort of looks like a girl dontcha think?"

"He does not!" Natsuko barked trying to defend her partner. "Okay, he sort of does."

Reaching the castle they split their seperate ways. Miroku, still carrying Inu Yasha, turned to Natsuko. She looked at him waiting for him to catch his breath.

"Can you help me?" Miroku finally asked. She walked near him. "That's right. Now take him to my room."

She picked Inu Yasha up and threw him on Miroku again. "You're such a pig!"

"That's where he sleeps! No! Natsuko! Help me! Somebody...help me...can't breathe!" Miroku cried under the mumbling Inu Yasha.

Sesshoumaru went to the West Tower where most fighting classes were held. Defense against all things were taught here. It was really the only class Sesshoumaru attended. It was beginning to be a bore though because no one wished to challenge him. Walking up to the third floor, down the hall, last door on the left stood waiting Geredian Knight Rhiannon. A massive man, with a woman like face, and long blonde hair stood by a case of books. He noticed when Sesshoumaru entered but didn't turn to face him. Sesshoumaru sat at the desk waiting for his new lecture. This Knight was farely respectable. The only teacher Sesshoumaru ever conversed with. Part of it was because this Knight was an old friend to his father and the other partly because he was Sesshoumaru's guide.

"Where were you?" Rhiannon finally asked.

"Around." Sesshoumaru fidgeted in his seat.

"Sesshoumaru." Rhiannon raised his eyebrow and took a book.

"I was at the Pub, so what's it to you. Shippo came to find me. He said you wanted to talk. So talk already." Sesshoumaru answered quickly a little agitated. You're waisting my time!

"You never did like to chat much. Alright I'll get right to it. A war is coming soon." He looked at Sesshoumaru then went on, "Demons against this peace your father and mother created. As a friend to your father I must fight against my own kind. But I can't do it alone. I need you there with me. You and your friends are the finest in this school and will be leading the front line. The only problem is that you need to graduate. You have tomorrow to get your priestess. One week to train with her then a whole month is needed to prepare for the exam. I need you to cut all that time in half. Either that or you go to fight and don't get your priestess until next year."

Sesshoumaru didn't say anything. He watched a yellow bird in the window.

"Or, I get my priestess forget the exam and go to war." He offered. Rhiannon was considering this.

"I'll have to talk to the Soul Society and see. Maybe that can be your exam. So you'll help me fight then?" Rhiannon extended his hand.

Sesshoumaru stood and looked into the dark pink eyes, "Only if I get Kagome."

"What? You can't choose-" Looking at Sesshoumaru's face he added, "I'll see what I can do."

"I don't need you to see. I need you to do it." And they shook hands.

"You're just like your father. You like this girl or something?"

"..."

"Fine, but I'll tell you one thing. Your father was the same way with your mother. She was the death of him and this girl'll be the same for you." Sesshoumaru walked out and went to his room.

No that girl will be the death of Inu Yasha and everyone else who gets in my way...I don't like her...no...I don't like her...

Kagome

"Wow! You did all that in one day?" Sango asked. Kagome had decided to sleep and recover from her exciting day but Sango was really cutting into her schedule.

"It was only the morning Sango. And it wasn't that exciting. Can I go to sleep now?" Kagome asked yawning loudly. "Please."

"Yeah, sure." Sango cuddled up next to her and fell asleep. Snoring loudly. Very loudly. Very, very loudly.

Kagome crawled out of bed.

"No use in trying." Looking out the window she saw Sesshoumaru, Kouga, Inu Yasha, and two other people walking in. "Where's he going?"

She ran out of her room and found herself at the place Sesshoumaru had been before he walked off. Miroku was still under Inu Yasha. Kagome walked over and knelt down.

"Hello, I'm Kagome. Did you see Sesshoumaru pass by?" She asked the little man.

"Get him off and I'll tell you." Miroku managed to say. Kagome pulled Inu Yasha off by his hair. "Great thanks. No I didn't see where he went."

"But-"

"I'm just kidding. I think he went that way." Miroku pointed towards the direction of the maze.

"Thanks." Why would he go into the maze? Kagome walked in, a feeling of nausia in her stomach.

Sesshoumaru

"Miroku, your room is next door." Sesshoumaru grabbed Inu Yasha and threw him out of his room. "That guy needs to go see the nurse."

"C'mon Sesshoumaru, do you know how heavy that guy is?" Miroku's arms dragged across the stone floor. "I'm tired!"

"Get out of my room!" Sesshoumaru ordered. Miroku walked out of the room and had barely closed the door behind him before Sesshoumaru stormed out of the room.

"You're not even using it!" Miroku yelled after him. "What's up with him?"

The Maze

Kagome took another left, dead end. This maze sucks! Every turn is a dead end! Okay, okay, lets see I tried left, left, right so to get out I need a right, right, left?

She looked around defeated. The sun was setting behind the high shrubs that made her prison. "It's gonna be dark soon. Maybe I should yell for help."

"Now by help what exactly are you looking for? Or who?" Kagome spun around.

A large black man wearing a black cloak was watching her. His red eyes piercing into Kagome's. He took a step towards her, she took a step back. Kagome shook her head. The black man gave her a big smile.

"Now what are you shaking your head for?" He asked. "Come with me. I don't want to hurt you."

"Fat chance you will." Damn it Kagome! You're in no condition to fight! "Scarlett Daggers!"

Sharp daggers flew at the man. With no trouble at all he brushed them off. Kagome ran. Left, right, right, straight, left. It didn't matter where as long as she was away from that man.

"I can't believe you're making me use this shit!" Kagome bumped into the man who had thrown white powder in her face. Kagome sneezed and fell to the ground immobile. "Pixie powder. I should beat your ass for making me use the stupid thing."

Kagome's eyes began to tear. Somebody will save me. Somebody has got to save me. She felt his arms around her as he lifted her body. But he dropped her as if she had burned him.

"Dammit!" A sword had been jabbed into his chest.

"I believe you have something that belongs to me." Kagome strained to see her savior.

"Sesshoumaru?" She whispered, then went blank.

The savior unfortunately was not Sesshoumaru.

"Draconian?" The black man asked.

"Good-bye Alkin!" Draconian cut off Alkin's head with one swing. A wiff of his power was absorbed by Draconian. "Now for the wench."

He was about to shove the sword into Kagome's head when he was struck in the back. Turning he saw a very angry demon.

"You'll not touch a hair on her head." Sesshoumaru barked.

Draconian ran off. Sesshoumaru chased after him. You won't get away that easily.

Following after in his cloud, Sesshoumaru failed to see the arrow coming at Kagome.
