CHAPTER 2: Discovering Leviathan

Kagome Higurashi woke up from her morning nap as she heard someone knocking on her bedroom window. She slowly got up from her bed, looking groggily to her window.

"I knew it."

Kagome then walked over to the window and opened it, but Inuyasha suddenly jumped down before he returned with something on his back.

"Kagome, look what I've found at the well house." He said, pointing at a strange blue and feminine figure at his shoulders.

"What is that thing?" Kagome asked.

"No idea."

The young priestess stepped away as Inuyasha laid the body on her bed.

"I don't think that this thing is a persocom, Inuyasha."

"?"

"Oh, sorry! I thought you'd understand…" Kagome apologized.

Both of them scrutinized the humanoid figure. Kagome saw that it had a sleek, white body, wearing a helmet, a short jacket, similar to Amar's baby sweater, only it had turtleneck collar and it had no sleeves. There's an 'X' across the jacket, with each end being buttoned to the jacket.

"Well, sitting here won't do anything, How about having lunch, Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.

"Anything could do."

While the two of them walked away, the light blue figure slowly woke up.

"Leviathan, could you read me?"

"Harpuia…? Yes. I can hear you."

"Are you alright? I'm contacting you via the normal radio wave right now."

"Maybe. What happened anyways?"

Harpuia, the voice over the other end stopped talking for a while. "It's maybe weird, but I think we're somewhere in the past."

"Huh?"

"I can only detect human signals. There are no reploid energy signatures for a few miles radius."

Leviathan's tone started becoming anxious. "Harpuia, we need to return back to our time, or else we will be non-existent!"

"Leviathan, I don't know about you, but I felt like someone was calling us. You, Fefnir, Phantom and I was told by something while we're in our forced-suspension (A/N: That's the sub-conscious state of reploids.) that we had something to protect…"

"…I don't understand…."

"Look, any more whining is useless until we regroup and look further into this matter." Harpuia said. "If we get worked out all too often, we'll run out of our E-Crystal supplies."

"…I understand."

"Over and out."

Leviathan sighed and sat up on the bed. She was quite confused about what had happened.

"I need to find the others, but what can I do?"

Meanwhile, at Kagome's kitchen… The young priestess was preparing lunch for her and Inuyasha when she noticed Inuyasha was casting his gaze at the stairwell where it leads to her room.

"What is it, Inuyasha? Did you hear something?" Kagome asked.

"I heard a voice of a girl talking to a guy from your room."

"Huh?"

As if Kagome's hunch had became reality, she then saw Leviathan stepping out of her room, holding the halberd ready, while Inuyasha had his hand on Tetsusaiga's handle, ready to unsheathe it if Leviathan started attacking.

"I see that you're eager to fight, huh?" Leviathan said. "If that's the case, you'll need to find me where there's a lot of water." Later, Leviathan fled.

"Hey!"

"Inuyasha! Wait!"

Leviathan then started her search for any signs of a river. She actually can fight without any need of water, but she just got used to using it to summon undersea monsters. After a brief run, she found the place, and it's quite unpolluted.

"Perfect."

Inuyasha came up behind the blue Guardian reploid with Kagome.

"Got you now."

"Not quite."

"Hold it, Inuyasha." Kagome asked, and when Leviathan heard that, she carved a small smile on her lips. "Who are you, if you please, tell us?"

Leviathan took her steady stance before she started talking. "I'm Leviathan. I overheard you two talking about persocoms, so, for your information, I'm a reploid."

"Reploid?"

"…" Inuyasha kept quiet to the truth that he was not able to keep up with Leviathan's words.

"In other words, I'm from the future."

The young priestess was silent.

"But since we're at it, how about we have a test fight around here, reddie?"

Inuyasha was irked.

"I'm not red!"

"But your clothes were."

Darn, no Wind Scar at a place like this. Gotta think of something fast.

Without a demonic aura, Inuyasha can't perform Backlash Wave either. That's when Kagome started to butt in.

"We can't fight here! People will gather up and…"

Inuyasha sheathed back his Tetsusaiga, getting back into his ready stance. "Some other time, Leviathan."

"Hmph! Whatever!" Leviathan angrily snorted. "And that's maybe why I'm going to follow either two of you from now on. Let's see… ah, how about you, Ka-go-me?"

"Hey! Can you spell it a little faster?"

Leviathan snickered while Kagome sighed. This going to be tough…for the young priestess, at least…

A/N: Yes! Another chapter! I didn't expect it to be this tiring though. By the way, read on and review!
