DISCALIMER: You should probably know by now...

…...

Kagome blinked at the man on the ground in front of her. He had a mask on and there was a sword near him. "Hi!" she smiled, with a wave. "What's all this?" asked Kurogane. "It looks like some kind of ceremony" answered Fai. Mokona back-flipped into Syaoran's hands and said, pointing it's finger at something, "I'm picking up a strong wave, like a feather, from up there!" Kagome looked over to see a chest over three masked, horned guys. "Hey, nice outfits!" called Kagome. Mokona and Sakura giggled, but the other guys ignored her.

They walked off the platform and watched the guys fight while Fai asked about the might-be feather. "Hey do you guys want to make any bets?" asked Kagome. Everyone agreed and placed their bets. Sakura and Kagome bet on one guy and Syaoran and Kurogane bet on the other. "Come on, fight like a man! Swing! Swing! No, you idiot! He was down! Why didn't you swing?" yelled Kagome, at the fighters. Then Fai walked up and said "I just spoke with the chairman. This is a tournament to decide the country's strongest hero" "Oh… the strongest hero, eh?" said Kurogane looking back at the fight. "And the winner will be given the sacred treasure that's on the altar" continued Fai. "The treasure might be…" began Sakura. "… Your feather, most likely" ended Syaoran. "Since Mokona sensed its power as well, it's very likely that it is. Now all we have to do is figure out how to get that sacred treasure" said Fai with his eyes closed. "That'll be a walk in the park" said Kurogane. "Yeah, we could just enter and win" said Kagome. "Looks like that's what we'll have to do. All hell will break loose if we just try to take it by force" said Fai in his usual happy tone. "And that's a problem?" Kagome asked Kita. Kita meowed.

"But are we able to enter the tournament?" questioned Syaoran. "If we hurry up, I think we still can" answered Fai. "Then it's decided. My strength has been getting pretty rusty lately anyways" said Kurogane. "But what if we get our butts kicked?" asked Fai. "Against these cowards? It'll be a piece of cake" stated Kurogane with a smirk. "I guess we'll have to wait and see" said Fai. "What do you mean?" questioned Kurogane. "See for yourself" was his answer.

They looked back to the fight to see the fighters throw away their swords. They both held out their hands and lightning appeared. The lightning clashed and made an explosion. "That was awesome!" shouted Kagome. "It's called 'Zola's Thunder'. Apparently it's a skill that the men in this country are born with" explained Fai. "Zola's Thunder…" mumbled Syaoran. "Under normal circumstances its use is forbidden… However, just for this tournament, they let them use it all they want" said Fai. "Sweet" said Kurogane. "Totally" exclaimed Kagome. Some lightning went towards them. Kagome didn't flinch or anything when her friends did. She would be fine if her barrier went up, which it did.

Syaoran asked Mokona to take Sakura somewhere safe. Sakura protested but soon gave in. A man won and it was Kagome's bet. "Yes! I win" she shouted. She looked over at Syaoran and Kurogane, "Pay up, losers" she said holding her hand out. Syaoran handed her his money. "Come on Kuro-chan! PAY UP!" Kurogane grumbled and dropped the money in her hand. "Shall we enter the tournament, now?" suggested Fai.

"Last one to the sign up place is a rotten egg" Kagome said. Expecting at least Kurogane to run, Kagome teleported to the sign ups. She finished signing in when her friends came up. She looked over at them and said, "Take you long enough?" Kagome giggled and gave the man her sheet. "I'm sorry, but only men can sign in" said the man. "What? I could beat all the men here!" protested Kagome. "You can't sign in, lady" "But I can use Zola's Thunder!" shouted Kagome. The man laughed at her. "Only men can use Zola's Thunder" "I'll show you" Kagome grumbled and held out her palm to the man. She concentrated her powers to look like lightning. Lightning shot out of her hands and destroyed the surrounding area in front of her.

Kagome looked at her palm. "Now that was cool!" she said with a grin. There were a few coughs before the men sat up, saying "O-ok. You're in". Kagome bowed and said "Thank you" She then walked past the guys, gave them a wink and said "Good luck, boys" Kagome walked into the dark hallway leading to the arena. She grabbed her bell and her clothes flashed.

She was now wearing silver leg armor that started at her knees and ended at her lower shins, black short skirt with a white sash thingy that went between her legs and reached her knees, (Kind of like Sakura's sash thingy) and a black belly shirt. She wore a white vest held together with belts, a red bandana around her neck, silver armor that went from her wrist to her elbow, and black gloves. She didn't wear shoes again, but her hair was in a high ponytail and a silver earring thing on her left ear. Yes, her wings showed, but that added to the overall effect of her outfit.

Kagome stepped out of the hallway and leaned against a wall and watched the fight at hand. Soon enough, her friends walked out and Kurogane was in his armor no one really noticed since his cloak/cape covered it. They walked over to her and noticed her new change of clothes. "Nice armor Kagome" said Fai. "You have too many clothes" commented Kurogane. "That's your problem" responded Kagome.

Kagome's name was called and she gave Kita to Syaoran. "Hold her for me" said Kagome, walking to the platform. A man handed her a sword, but she declined it and jumped onto the platform. "Go Kago-chan!" cheered Fai. Kagome nodded in his direction and waited for the go ahead. "A woman…? I have to fight a woman? And where is her weapon?" asked her opponent. Kagome held out her hand. There was a white flash and then she had a sword. It was a tachi sword with a red rose design along the blade. "My weapon is right here. And yes, you have to fight me" she said, her voice full of annoyance. Then, they received the go ahead sign. The man charged at her.

Kagome sighed and easily blocked the attacks he tried to inflict on her. She held her sword with one hand and yawned into her other one, still blocking all of her opponent's attacks. The man grew tired and Kagome smirked evilly. "My turn" she said coldly. She moved her sword and flicked her wrist. The man's sword was forced out of his hands and flew off the platform. The man flipped back and put his palms to her. Kagome smirked and let her powers fuse into her sword. Her sword was wrapped in silver lightning. The man shot lightning at her and Kagome raised her sword. She cut the man's lightning and then disappeared. She reappeared right in front of the man, her sword close to his neck, the lightning brushing his skin. The lightning dispersed and the man fell on his backside. "I believe that I have defeated you." Kagome said, her voice not as cold. The man gulped nervously and nodded. "Ok! That was fun!" she said, happily. Kagome let her sword disappear as she turned away.

She walked back to her friends. "So, how was I?" she asked, leaning on the wall. "That was … Amazing!" said Syaoran in awe. "I know. I'm awesome" Kagome said smugly. "Pretty good. Be sure not to lose, I want to have some fun" spoke Kurogane. "Funny, I was going to say the same thing" responded Kagome. Kurogane's name was called and he grinned. "My turn" he said. He went on the platform and faced his masked opponent. (to find out the rest of the fights, watch episode 16) (So you know Fai and Kurogane fight and they both lose because they got disqualified)

…. (Later on)

Kagome sighed, totally pissed off. "Stupid people with their stupid rules!" shouted Kagome, outside of the arena. She got kicked out for beating a guy to a bloody pulp, who insulted her abilities outside of a battle. "I totally would have won, but no" grumbled Kagome, Kita on her shoulder. "Should we find Sakura?" Kagome asked Kita, who mewed in agreement. They walked down a forest path to a small cottage. "Hello~! Anyone here?" called Kagome, walking up to the cottage.

"Kagome?" was asked from behind the cottage. Kagome strolled over and looked over a corner on the house. "Oh, Sakura, there you are" said Kagome, before walking over. "I thought you were in the tournament. What happened?" said/asked Sakura. "Well, I kind of got kicked out," Kagome said, scratching the back of her neck. "Kagome was a bad girl!" exclaimed Mokona, jumping onto her shoulder. "I was not- Well, maybe I was" said Kagome, mumbling the last part. Kagome hummed when she looked over to the woman by Sakura. "And who might you be?" asked Kagome. "Charme. I guess your name is Kagome?" said the woman with the headband. "Yep… May I ask about the curse on your forehead?" Charme tensed and then grabbed her chest. "Charme, are you ok?" asked Sakura. "I'm fine. My chest just…" then Charme fell to her knees. Kagome and Sakura knelt down next to her.

A man in bandages came out of the hut and rushed over. He helped Charme into the cottage and Sakura, Mokona, and Kita went in. Kagome decided to head back to the arena so she left them behind. 'Probably need to talk about something important. I shouldn't intrude' Kagome thought to herself. She walked up to the arena and through the dark hallway. She stepped into the light and had to blink to help her eyes adjust. "Ah, Kagome! Good to see you again" said Fai from her left. Kagome went over to Fai and Kurogane. "Is this the finale?" asked Kagome, looking at the fight. "Yep" responded Fai. Kagome giggled, "That means Ninja man lost". "Hey! Blondie here made me get disqualified!" yelled Kurogane.

"Don't yell at me!" shouted Kagome. "I can and will!" shouted Kurogane. They continued throwing insults until Kurogane made a slight sexist comment. Kagome lowered her head so her bangs covered her eyes. Her hands made fists. Kagome looked up, her eyes silver, and raised her hand, which was engulfed in her lightning. "YOU BASTARD!" she yelled, slapping him. Kurogane's head whipped to the side, his cheek having a red, scorched hand-print on it. Kagome blinked and her eyes turned sapphire again. She looked at her hand then Kurogane's cheek, back to her hand. She put her hand behind her back. "Oopsy!" said Kagome, smiling cutely.

Kurogane's eyebrow twitched and said bluntly, "Run". "Gotcha! I'm running!" and Kagome took off. Kurogane chased her shouting insults, which Kagome responded with her own insults and rude comments. Kagome then saw Syaoran step off the platform and receive his prize. She smirked and ran for a wall and at the last possible moment, she teleported. Kagome was now next to Fai and heard a rather loud bam! Kagome looked over and called, "Aww, did ninja man hit a wall?" Kagome laughed and then looked at Syaoran's prize. "What is it?" she asked bending down to get a better look. Kagome felt Charme's male friend's aura and looked over. "Are you here for Charme?" she asked. He gave a court nod and demanded the treasure from Syaoran.

"I wonder …" mumbled Kagome. She grabbed the treasure from Syaoran and said, "Fight him." "Kagome?" asked Syaoran. "Don't ask! Just do it!" she said, walking away. Kagome heard a loud boom behind her but kept walking. "Charme! Sakura!" she exclaimed when she saw them. "Kagome!" they called as the dark angel ran up to them. "Are you guys ok?" she asked, mostly Charme. "We're fine, but Keefer," said Charme. "They'll be fine, now let's cure your curse" said Kagome taking out the treasure. "How did you…" asked a wide-eyed Charme. "I took it from Syaoran. Now, do you want me to do it or Keefer?" Kagome held out the treasure. "Keefer, if that's ok" said Charme with a slight blush. Kagome smiled and looked at the fight that was happening. They seemed to stop and Kagome threw the treasure at Syaoran. He caught it and after a moment gave it to Keefer.

Keefer thanked Syaoran and they both walked of the platform. Kagome picked up Charme, bridal style, and brought her over to her 'friend'. She set down Charme. Keefer then took the curse off of her. Kagome looked from Keefer to Charme, and repeated this for awhile. Her friends began talking while Kagome thought about something. Kita licked Kagome's cheek, appearing out of nowhere again. "Kita" she said, scratching said cat behind the ears. "Kagome?" was asked and Kagome looked over. "Hmm?" "We're going to leave. It was nice to meet you" said Charme, giving her a hug. Kagome hugged her back after a moment and the two females let go and smiled at each other.

They walked them so far and waved goodbye. Kagome said goodbye then after they walked away a bit she called, "You make a cute couple!" Charme blushed a pretty pink and then had a short conversation with Keefer. They walked away holding hands. Kagome sighed and looked over at Syaoran. "You should be like that with Sakura" she said and watched said persons' faces turn red. Kagome put a hand to her mouth and giggled into it.

"It really worked out that well that the treasure wasn't Sakura's feather" said Fai with a serious face. Sakura blinked and looked over. "If it was, we would have had to fight for it. A fight to the death" continued Kurogane. Kagome sighed and looked up at the moon. She sighed and gave Mokona a sideways glance. "Well, things are getting a little tense. Shall we go to the next world?" "Sure!" said Mokona. Kagome clapped her hands together, and prayed "Please, let the next world have a television!" Mokona jumped up and grew wings to large for her tiny body. Its mouth opened wide and the Tsubasa crew was surrounded in light. They were now in the tunnel between worlds.

Kagome and the crew landed in kneeling positions when they landed. Mokona dropped down, bounced once, and landed saying, "We've arrived!" They all stood up and looked around. "Well then, I wonder what kind of world this is" said Fai. Kagome looked over when she noticed five women in front of them, all wearing black and white maid outfits. They did a pose and said, "Welcome to the land of Outo! (Sakura City)" Each woman hugged one of us and Kagome felt awkward. "Oh my, what strange clothes you all have on!" exclaimed the one hugging Fai. Kagome felt a sharp pain in her chest when she saw them together. Kagome mentally slapped herself, asking what she was thinking.

"Did you come from another world, perchance?" asked the one embracing Kurogane, which didn't work since he was so tall. "Don't cling to me," said Kurogane. Syaoran asked if other people from other worlds come here before. "Of course. Lots of people from other worlds come here to enjoy this country," answered the one holding Syaoran. "Have you completed your resident registration?" asked the one holding a squirming Sakura. "Nope" answered Kagome, removing the woman holding her. The one that used to hold Kagome made a short speech about getting them to the city hall blah, blah, blah. And at the end, the other women did a pose with her.

They went to the city hall and walked up to the Expedited Processing Division. Fai and Kagome walked up and meet a woman who had orange hair, blue eyes, and small red horns. "Welcome to the Land of Outo. Please fill your name here" she said pulling out a form. "I'd like to have my own, please" said Kagome leaning on to the counter. "Alright" "Aww, Kagome doesn't want me to fill hers out" whined Fai. "You are such a flibbertigibbet" Kagome sighed. "A what?" asked Fai. "A flibbertigibbet, a silly person" Kagome explained. "You wound me so" said Fai. "Yeah, yeah" mumbled Kagome filling out her form. She left the name blank because she heard Fai and the horned lady talk about aliases and she wanted one.

Kita hopped on her shoulder. Kagome looked over and asked, "Any good names in mind?" Kita meowed and licked her cheek. Kagome sighed and glanced over at Fai's sheet. She smirked at their names and returned to her own form. Kita sat on the counter while Kagome stared at the paper. She then realized the perfect name, Angel. She wrote do Angel Wynd and handed her form in after Fai. The lady behind the counter said "Everything looks good. Now, we just need to determine where you'll staying and your occupations" "Travelers have to work in this country too?" asked Fai.

"If you don't work you won't have any money. You won't be able to do anything" answered the horned woman. "That's true" said Kagome and Syaoran. Syaoran had walked over when Fai handed in the form. "If you're in a rush, you can sell something in your possession" suggested the lady. "That's good" said Fai to the lady. He turned and called "Kuro-wanwan, can you bring that luggage here?" Kurogane stood up with a large bag and yelled, "Don't refer to people like they're dogs!" Kagome giggled at his outburst because several people looked at him oddly.
