Kagome's Power
Kagome's POV
'What a bunch of idiots, I can't believe that Sesshomaru didn't kill them. I have never seen anyone treat him with such disrespect. Not even Inu Yasha dared to act like that to Sesshomaru.' I almost had to laugh at the memory of Sesshomaru straining to hold back and not kill Yusuke's friends. If they hadn't saved us, they would be dead ten times over by now. I looked over to see Sesshomaru clench his fist when Chu and Jin started laughing at Buddha knows what. Of course, I couldn't blame him for being mad I had wanted to slug Shishi as hard as I could. The demon, Shishi, is just way to full of himself and I would love to just deflate him. Rinku was a cute kid and right now he is talking about all the tricks and other thinks that he can do with his yoyos. The only problem I was having with Rinku was the rate at which he could use his squeaky voice. Touya wasn't too bad either, he just seemed to follow his friends and he seemed to want to increase his strength so that he could be Yusuke or Kurama. I see as to why Sesshomaru dislikes Chu and Jin for Chu is an annoying drunk and Jin is to hyper and has a personality for to similar to Yusuke's. I still can't figure out Hiei, half the time he is indifferent and the rest of the time he just seems to want to go about gutting everybody. I am a little confused about Kurama. He seems to be a nice person, but when he fights he almost seems to become a different person. Yesterday he had seemed so ruthless and he acted as if he enjoyed slaughtering all those demons we were fighting. 'It is good that he is on our side but I wont allow myself to trust him, at least not until I can figure out what is going on in his head. I know that he as Yoko in him and that Yoko is the one who tends to show more when fighting, but why. Yoko spirit should have gone into a permentat sleep when he didn't separate after ten years of restoring his power inside of Shuichi. I can trust Shuichi, but I need to figure out Yoko. What is it about them, that allows Yolo to continue living as an individual when he shouldn't be? What type of bond have they created? Enough we were nearing the area and it would soon be my turn to track down the one we were sent to destroy. I need to relax and let my power become one with my body and soul. The demons name as Touya had told us is Kutsuu (Pain), the name just seems so fitting.' I should just forget Yoko and Shuichi and trust Kurama, his aura is hard to read but it doesn't feel evil.
We paused and Sesshomaru was about to say something when Yusuke interrupted, "Hiei, do you think you can track the demon now that we are pretty close to it?" I really just want to slap him upside the head, for what reason does he think I am here for. I really want to slap all of them even the adorable kid, I am a powerful miko and they keep trying to help me. I would think that my participating in the battle yesterday would have showed everyone that I am not weak and that I can help. If this demon really is using the Orb of Sosei to gain power than his aura will be twisted it will be darker than anything else. Mikos can sense auras and differences that have been caused by unnatural means, I explained all of this last night. 'I really need this battle to start soon so that I can release my anger.' Time to settle down and focus so that when my help is needed, I will be ready.
"Hn, detective how am I to track the demon when I know nothing of its energy signal." Hiei's curt reply sure made my mood change; I get to do something useful after all.
Sesshomaru stepped in before Yusuke could start an unneeded fight with Hiei.
"Kagome could you find the demon and lead us to him" Sesshomaru asked.
"Just a minute, when I find him there will be no stopping. Prepare yourselves" I said as I walked ahead a few steps of everybody, when I stopped I closed my eyes and let my senses go forward to search the area. I felt the energy of the demon and quickly headed for it. My miko powers are in control and they want to find the demon and destroy so all other thoughts leave my mind.
Kurama's POV
I was surprised when Kagome smiled at Lord Sesshomaru released a gentle wave of her miko powers. I am even more surprised at how quickly she can be running toward this demon with no sign of slowing or stopping. When she had bolted to the west Sesshomaru had been right on her tale, but it had taken a few seconds for everyone else to start following after her. After two hours of running we had lost both Kagome and Lord Sesshomaru they were far to fast.
"Where the hell could they have gone?" Yusuke screamed as soon as Hiei had stated to us all that he couldn't find them. It seems that Kagome's miko energy nullified his Jagon eye and made it impossible to track her.
"Yusuke I think it would be best to continue in the direction they had been going earlier. If Kagome latched on to the demons energy the way I think she did then she will be headed in a straight line for him." I said and Yusuke along with everyone else just nodded as we started running again.
"I know that Kagome is a super powerful miko and all but how can she run so fast for so long." Kuwabara asked as we neared sounds of a huge fight. I didn't answer none of us did, it didn't make any sense at all. We all stopped as we saw Kagome at the end of a clearing with a bow and arrow formed from her miko powers at the ready and there was a huge dog demon, who must have been Sesshomaru, fighting a huge bear demon. It was a sight to see to upper level demons ancient demons fighting in such a way. Yoko before he had died had been a very powerful demon, but he had still been so far away from having a fox form like Lord Sesshomaru has his dog form.
/Hey I resent the way you are thinking, Red \ As always Yoko made his displeasure none. I watched as the bear demon stood on its hind legs and the dog demons quickly moved away to the right. Kagome released the arrow and I watched as the holy energy from her miko powers it the bear demon right in the stomach. The bear dissolved into nothing but a pile of ash and a softly glowing blue orb.
"Damn, it seems that we weren't needed after all," Chu said as he smiled and nudged Yusuke in the ribs. "but then again neither were you, Yusuke." Everyone laughed for a second as Sesshomaru walked up in his more human form and handed the orb to Kagome. We waited for a minute as Yusuke called up Botan and had her open a portal nearby. Goodbyes were said and we returned to spirit world to return the orb, Sesshomaru didn't go with us through the portal he just turned as walked away.
As soon as we entered Koenma's office Kagome walked right over and set the orb on his desk then walked into a new awaiting portal and disappeared.
"Well done on retrieving the orb everyone. Botan!" As soon as Botan's name was said we all fell through a portal opened up beneath our feet and found ourselves at Genkai's Shrine. It was Sunday and school is tomorrow so I left right away to handle all of my homework and find a way to approach Kagome tomorrow. Something wasn't right she had been far too quiet today. The fox in me was wondering at what could be wrong, and it was also happy to have a new challenge.
