In Which There is an Interlude


Lights aura: Hello everyone! I am back with a new chappie! It's amazing how a couple of reviews can inspire you.

Amu: (is glaring at the Cheshire Cat Toy) I will figure out your weakness.

Lights aura: (sighs) Sorry that Amu is pre-occupied today. Anyway, this chappie is really short but it is still important.

Amu: (glaring) I will win the staring contest, you will see.

Lights aura: I wonder if Amu will ever realize that toys can't blink.

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha. If I did then I would force my minions to write this chappie while I sat on an amazing throne. (dreamily) That would be so amazing…


The old woman sighed as she glared into her crystal ball. How could her pet spider demon have been defeated so easily?

Her eyes began to glow red. The girl and the wolf demon were pathetic, so how could they have won? She clinched her fist as she watched the image of the demon, girl, and monkey running through the forest. She felt her blood begin to boil. A moment later, a slight crack appeared on the surface of the crystal ball.

"That is very unlike you, Malika" said a deep amused voice.

Malika turned around and saw a tall handsome man with long black hair and cold brown eyes. "Naraku," She said curtly as she nodded her head. "Always a pleasure."

Naraku walked over and glanced at her crystal ball. "Hm, whatever could have made you so upset that you would crack your own crystal ball, I wonder."

"It is none of your concern," She said as she quickly walked over to a cabinet and pulled out a jar filled with gross black liquid. "I just have a few loose ends that need to be tied."

"They wouldn't have to do with a certain young human girl who is traveling with the wolf demon, now would they?" Naraku asked with a slight smirk on his face.

Malika whirled around angrily, "Have you been spying on me?"

Naraku's eyes narrowed. "Be glad that is all I did, witch."

Malika suppressed a shudder as she tore her gaze from his. Naraku was truly a powerful creature even to someone such as herself. "It's not the girl I am interested in. It's the harp."

Naraku raised an eyebrow. "And what is so special about a harp?"

"Its abilities are far greater than you can imagine." She said, her lust shining from her eyes. "The girl has merely tapped into its power. She doesn't know its true potential." She clinched her fist. "And I will take it from her, no matter what."

"Why are you so interested in this harp?" Naraku asked. "It sounds like something that you could create on your own."

"Because," Malika said quietly. "Many years ago, I was imprisoned by a musician. She used that harp to imprison me. I will not let the device that imprisoned me move freely about in the hands of an idiot child!"

"Well, if you want the harp so much then I have a proposition for you," Naraku said. "I will offer my services in exchange for yours."

Malika smirked as she crossed her arms. "I have heard rumors that I was to never trust any deals you made because you would always go back on them." She let out a sigh. "But I vowed to myself that I would steal the harp even if I had to sell my soul to hell."


Lights aura: That's the end of this uber short chappie.

Amu: (runs in panting) What…did…I…miss?

Lights aura: Where have you been and where did the Cheshire Cat Toy go?

Amu: (grins) I finally defeated it!

Lights aura: (Glares at Amu's dirty paws) You just buried it, didn't you?

Amu: (grumbles) You just ruined the amazing story I was about to tell you…

Lights aura: Did it include pie?

Amu: Yes.

Lights aura: Then I'm not interested.

Amu: Sometimes, you can be so mean…


Incase You Didn't Know:

1) Malika: is Arabic for Queen. I thought it would be amusing to have a villian believe she was royalty.


Alright that's it for now. Please remember to READ and REVIEW! Oant Sjen until next chappie!
