Chapter V
Kagura was heading toward her master Naraku, with news about what she just saw, when she saw the mysterious man named Sensei. "I better keep my eyes on this one." When he was out of sight she looked straight ahead again & realized that she was almost at Naraku's dwelling. Kagura landed & went inside.
Naraku was sitting on the window ledge looking outside when he heard Kagura coming. He didn't even move & kept gazing out the window even when she came inside. "What do you have to report!" came the Kagura's order.
"Nothing out of the ordinary." Came the reply "Except..."
"Except what?" Naraku's voice harsh as he turns to her.
"Except for an interesting human just took out Inuyasha. From what I gather he is an old acquaintance of Inuyasha's. A rather old acquaintance."
"Who is he?"
"The only name I got was Sensei."
"How interesting." Mused Naraku. "So he's managed to find away to stay alive after all these years."
"You know him then master."
"More like know of him. As of yet we've never had the pleasure of meeting."
"Shall I keep my eyes on him then?"
"Yes that would be a good idea. He might come to be of use. You may go now Kagura." With that Naraku turned his attention back outside.
"There is more."
"What else?"
"Sensei brought Inuyasha to the brink of death in one blow. As well as the priestess Kagome & Sesshomaru are in what appears to be a coma."
"Is that all?" Still staring out the window.
"Yes."
"Go & keep your eyes on Sensei then."
Kagura bowed to Naraku & left. "What could be so interesting about this person that makes even Naraku interested in him." Kagura mused as she went of to spy on Sensei.

Sensei spotted Kagura before she spotted him. There is not much that passes unnoticed around Sensei. He could already feel his strength returning. "Feels good to be strong again. I underestimated Sakura. She was strong only now after all these years has she begun to be weak. She must be almost dead by now give or take a week." Sensei smiled at the thought of Sakura lying dead. His former student that was a pain in his side since the beginning will be dead. "One down one to go." He muttered as his thoughts turned towards Inuyasha. "How long will it be till he comes after me & tries to kill but he will fail like always."

Sakura had to stop & catch her breath. Her heart pounding, wildly, like she ran a marathon instead of only cresting the hill to her home. "I must be getting old. How long have I been here? Must be like at least 50 years." She turned to see how the new comers were coming along. "I've got to get out of here before I die. I've got to kill that bastard before he kills me. Using my own technique against me now that is low. I should have realized the signs on what he was doing. It makes you mad for the first few years or so."
Sakura looked back to check on the new arrivals. The demon she recognized as Inuyasha's older half brother Sesshomaru but the miko is a mystery. Sakura could sense that Sesshomaru & the miko knew each other but how she'll soon find out.
