Yo. I'm updating again.


It was early in the morning when it awoke. Growling in pain, the half-demon rolled over onto its back, glaring up into the cloudy sky, very bitter for being defeated the night before. There were many scratches and gashes on the humanly figure. They had finally stopped bleeding after the half-demon collapsed the night before and fell unconscious. It sat up painfully, cursing the one who defeated it so easily. It knew that it was the person it was looking for, however. He was strong. He could probably wipe out a whole village of humans with his strength. The demon knew that Inuyasha could have wiped out the demon slayer village by himself.


"So why are you traveling around, Sango?"
Lloyd asked, the breaking the silence after they had finished telling the long story. Sango's gaze shifted to the ground, knowing she should tell these people. It was a painful thing to talk about, but eventually, she knew that they had to find Sheena and fill her in as well.

"Well, I travel with four friends... Kagome, Miroku, Shippo and Inuyasha."
She began,
"It all began with the sacred shikon jewel..."
It was her turn to tell a long story now. She told them about Inuyasha and how Kagome was from the future, how the shikon jewel had been shattered, how she had been tricked but saved by Inuyasha and how their group planned to destroy the bastard Naraku who had destroyed her village. When she had finished talking, Lloyd spoke.
"We've heard of this Naraku guy before... He really is a bad guy, huh?"

"Yes Lloyd, he's the 'bad guy.'"
Zelos taunted. Lloyd shot him an angry look. Shrugging, Zelos said,
"Well, my beautiful, graceful slayer, as you know, we came here looking for exspheres, but found none. We did hear of the troubles this land is having, though and we wanted to investigate so that we could do something about it. Would it be possible to join up with your group? You seem to know a lot more about what he's like than we do."

Sango thought for a moment, it would be great to have more help, it was even better because there was a chance of meeting her old friend again. She did, however, want to discuss it with the others.

"Well, you could come with me and ask Inuyasha. He's the leader of our group."
She said.
"But do you guys have any idea where Sheena might be?"

Lloyd shook his head,
"She said something about your weapon not being on top of one of the graves and wanted to search for you alone. We don't really know these lands at all, so we don't really have a clue about where she is right now."

"I see..."
Sango responded, slightly disappointed.
"Let's start moving then. On foot, we should be there in three days or so."
She said. The others followed her lead down the road.

'Three more days late? Inuyasha's going to kill me..."
She thought with a frown as she walked.


Inuyasha was indeed grumpy, but he was secretly more worried than angry. Why was Sango late? She knew that they were to move without her if she wasn't there by that afternoon. If they stayed too long, Naraku would attack the village. They had to leave today. He knew that his friends were just as worried as he was, but he had to be firm. Standing, he said,
"We can't wait for her anymore. We have to set off today; I'm sure she'll find us."

"Yes, I guess it can't be helped, she's rarely late."
Miroku said, concerned.

"Inuyasha, let's go to her village and look for her."
Kagome said, and Inuyasha nodded.
"Alright."

They thanked Kaede, left her a message in case Sango came, and left. It was a quiet and brisk walk. Inuyasha knew that she wasn't in any danger, she could fend for herself. He was worried nevertheless.

"So Sango, what's this Inuyasha guy like? He seems to be a pretty nice guy considering that he took you in and stuff."
Lloyd asked,
"He must fancies you if he took you in the group even after you tried to kill him and stuff. You like him a lot too, I think."
Zelos added with a grin, receiving a warning nudge from Lloyd. Sango's face hardened, a stiff smile appearing on her lips in time. She was asked this question a lot.
"Inuyasha and I are just good friends. I've promised to live with the monk Miroku I told you about earlier. And yes, he is a nice guy... He can be quite rude sometimes, but he has a kind heart."
Zelos could instantly tell that what she was saying wasn't entirely the truth. He had lived his whole life wearing a mask, and he could tell that she had put one on. Not wanting to linger on such a subject, he moved on,
"And your friend Kagome? How is she?"

"Oh yeah! She's from the future?"
Collette said, clapping her hands,

"I'd really like to hear what the future's like!"
"It... Really doesn't sound different from the thing's I've heard you talk about. Flying machines, self-moving rides, light without fire…"
"So the future's... No different from now?"

"Well... Apparently... There's no magic in the future, and everything's run by electricity or something."

"How far into the future is this? How can there be no magic?"
Collette asked,

"I'm really not sure about all of this, I'm sorry... You can ask her when you see her?"
She said. Zelos made another typical remark,

"I can't wait until I meet her! I have another feeling that she's pretty like you, right, Sango?"
Sango couldn't help but blush; he was just like Miroku minus the groping, which he made up by making her feel equally uncomfortable with his words.
"Um... Well, yeah, I guess..."


Walking down the path with his friends, Inuyasha realized something. It was the night before the full moon. How could he have forgotten? There was a brief moment of panic in his eyes which thankfully went unnoticed by his friends. He looked down at the ground as he led them on as he calmed down to think. They were just on the way to Sango's village, and there would always be hiding spots in the forest in case they were attacked. Though, it would be hard to protect Kagome as a human with Miroku... Either way, they couldn't stop; they had to make sure Sango was safe. It would take three days to walk there, and he would be back to his original form by the time arrived. It was unlikely that they would be attacked on the way...

Sheena turned a few cards around in her hands. They were not the charms she used to attack, but were prototypes of the meltokio labs.
'Tomorrow's the night... We both suffer...'
She thought.


Alright, everyone... You're making me sad by not reviewing... Please, please please at least review once...
