Because apparently my story isn't crap to you guys so on with my awful filler
"And that's how we got here"
Keade looked at the pink haired teen then at Happy and Shippo that had been quite the explanation; then again she had seen and heard many things in her age.
The group had arrived the next day around mid afternoon, Inuyasha still refusing to accept he was in the wrong which provided Happy with a lot of material to mess with the dog demon.
Shippo had been the one to lead the exceed and dragon slayer to Keade as Inuyasha went to sulk, Miroku said he was going to find him.
Despite the monk heading further into the village, Natsu and Happy didn't bother asking Sango.
She got that scary look in her eye as she went after the monk that made them feel sorry for their strange friend.
"That is quite the tale, so ye say you come from another world full of magic?" Keade asked the two as she tried to wrap her mind around the notion.
It wasn't too hard after all magic and demons were well known in her time, unlike Kagome's where it's all myths and Fairy tales.
"Yeah, though demon's are a lot different than the ones we've met here" the only demons Natsu had met were the peaceful one's from the island and the crazed Etherious.
Here though it seemed many kept to themselves unless they were strong enough to attack people.
"The others said you might know a way to get us home" Happy chimed in; somehow he had a silver fish in his paws.
Were he got it no one knew.
Keade sighed as she shook her head" this has never happened before, there are many mysteries behind the Bone Eater's well that we have yet to discover" the old priestess explained as both seemed to deflate a bit as Natsu perked up.
"Well if we got here through that creepy well, maybe the one here can take us back" Natsu thought it was a good idea as Shippo spoke.
"If you can get through, the well doesn't let anyone but Kagome and Inuyasha use it" the fox kit explained as the two looked confused.
"Why's that?" asked Happy though a mouthful of fish.
"Don't know" shrugged Shippo" though it's not fair that Inuyasha can go through, he just makes things worse" he had a frown on his face as he remembered yesterday.
"Well that stinks" mutter Natsu, there went that idea.
"Ye are welcome to stay as long as ye need until you find your way home" Keade offered, despite the notion of these two being from some strange world she was still learning about, it wouldn't cause any harm.
The bone eaters well was a mystery, just like how it pulled in Kagome maybe there was a reason the two were brought to this time.
"Aye! I'll make sure Natsu doesn't blow anything up" Happy chimed in, the village had a river and he intended it stayed intact.
"What's that suppose to mean!" Natsu glared down at his friend, Shippo and Keade not understanding what the exceed meant.
Natsu had shown her his magic by igniting his fist, so she could understand that fire could easily cause damage if waved around but didn't quite known the extent of his abilities.
Shippo was confused to as far as he had seen Natsu only breathed fire and could set various body parts in flames.
They had no idea how destructive their new friend really was, unfortunately they soon would.
"The other's haven't even seen what you can really do, better warn them" Happy said through the fish he was munching on.
"It's not like I've blown up a mountain" Natsu grumbled causing Happy to spit out fish bones.
"You melted one two months ago! And toasted me, it was awful you turned the fish to ash!" Happy flew up yelling in Natsu face.
"Well they're the ones who took it from you!" Natsu countered back, the old woman and fox demon watching them in slight amusement as the two were acting comically.
"You didn't have to melt the mountain though, what would Erza do if she found out!" at that both shuddered in fear.
"Maybe it's a good thing were here, she can't kill us yet" though the idea of going home was a lot less appealing in Natsu's mind.
"You destroyed a mountain?" the two turned towards Shippo who's eye's were sparkling in awe at the idea, he had never met someone who was that strong.
"Yeah, I kinda went overboard" Natsu laughed nervously scratching the back of his head; at least they didn't have a magic council here if he messed up.
"You always go overboard" Happy ribbed.
Keade could only chuckle as the dragon slayer and blue cat once again began their own childish argument, the boy reminded her of Inuyasha in many ways yet he was completely different from the dog demon.
"Do ye plan to travel with Kagome and the others?" Keade asked the two as they stopped their bickering, from what they explained of their first two day's they already knew about the jewel shards.
"Yeah, Miroku and the other's told us about that Naraku bastard so were staying to help" Natsu explained what he and Happy had already decided on.
"Oh, so ye know of Naraku?" the old woman asked wondering exactly how much they knew.
"Just what the other's told us" Happy piped in as they had said he was once a human who gave up his humanity for the power of a demon.
"So ye know how Naraku came to be" Keade asked as the two looked slightly confused as she sighed.
"Naraku's creation began fifty years ago, when my sister Kikyo was protecting the once complete Sacred Jewel" she began, the two knew little of Kikyo as all they had said was Kagome was her reincarnation which freaked them out at first.
She seemed to be a forbidden topic.
"Kikyo, you mean the person Kagome use to be?" Happy asked as the closes thing they had heard to something like that was Life magic.
Which was forbidden magic that was said if ever performed would anger the god's to place a curse on the human who dared try it.
"Aye, for a long time my sister protected the jewel from demons until one day a half demon came after her but unlike the many before she couldn't destroy him" at the mention of a half demon as the two couldn't help but ask.
"What's a half demon anyway?" asked Natsu.
"Yeah, and Inuyasha mentioned something about wanting to become a full demon" the old woman looked at the two as she began to explain.
"A half demon is what you call someone who has a human and demon parent" the two nodded understanding the simple explanation.
"So Inuyasha had a human mom or dad?" asked Happy.
"His mother was human, while his father was a power demon known as the lord of the western lands" at that both fairy tail mages couldn't help but feel their jaws drop.
"WHAT!" the yelling hadn't fazed Keade in the slightest.
"Inuyasha's dad was like a king then?" Both Happy and Natsu asked as Keade nodded.
"Yeah, Sesshomaru sure act's like it" Shippo muttered remembering the older pure blooded dog demon, he was worse than Inuyasha.
"Sesshomaru?" new name's just kept popping up.
"Inuyasha's older brother he's a full demon and really strong" Shippo told his two new friends who were surprised to hear the half demon had an elder brother.
Keade cleared her throat as to get the attention back to her to continue her story" yes and how Inuyasha was born a half demon that means part of him was human, something I think made my sister let him go every time he'd try to steal the jewel" old memories played in Kaede's mind how many time's she had seen her sister pin Inuyasha to a tree then leave him be.
"Wow even back then Inuyasha couldn't win" Happy deadpanned as Shippo laughed a bit.
"Aye, but in that game they soon began to speak and know each other becoming friends which many did see as a mistake" at that the two became confused.
"Why would it be a mistake?" it confused Natsu and Happy.
"Demons and humans aren't suppose to interact unless their enemies, half demons are frowned upon for being the production of a demon and a human this village is rare for seeing as we don't see Shippo, Inuyasha or Kirara as enemies but our friends" Keade explained as it seemed things were very different in the world of the two.
"That sounds rough" for once Natsu actually felt bad for Inuyasha, though it wasn't too surprising considering the guild back home most who came didn't exactly have the best childhood.
"Aye, it was mine sister who eventually was able to calm the village's fears of Inuyasha as he often spoke of stealing the jewel but never did" at that Kaede's face took on a more serious expression.
"That was around the time my sister found Onigumo a bandit who had been injured severely and was on the brink of death, we now know him as Naraku" Keade explained" he played my sister for a fool at time's but his intentions were always clear as he himself wanted the jewel that Kikyo guarded" the older woman sighed, if only her sister had left that man to die.
If only they had known what trouble he would cause.
"While at the same time Inuyasha and Kikyo were becoming closer, see Kikyo was becoming tired of protecting the jewel she wanted to be a normal woman and what she would propose to Inuyasha would lead to our current situation" that one confused Happy as unlike Natsu who was still trying to understand what Keade meant by 'closer'.
The exceed wondered how falling in love could have lead to psychotic probably megalomaniac demon.
"There is but one way to make sure the Sacred Jewel never falls into the wrong hands and that is to make a pure wish, for as you've probably seen the jewel brings nothing but pain to those who use it for self gain" looking at the three she was surprised that they were listening, as even Shippo was okay rehearing what he had already learned.
"Kikyo proposed Inuyasha to become human, so the jewel would vanish and they could live normal lives alas around the same time Naraku was already being born" Keade shook her head remembering what led to this moment" They were to meet so the wish could be made but Naraku tricked them both, making the other believe they had betrayed each other as Naraku had mortally injured my sister and Inuyasha rampaging the village to steal the jewel only for my sister to bind him to the tree" the older woman sighed, if only her sister had stayed dead her new life of the walking dead just gave them both pain.
"After Inuyasha had fallen to the spell mine sister died, we honored her request to be cremated with the jewel we just never expected her soul to come back to us as Kagome or the jewel to be shattered as that's the story of how Naraku came to be" she had shorten it but she felt the two especially Natsu would probably become bored with a long explanation, but to her surprised the dragon slayer had a serious look on his face.
"Ya know if Kikyo and Inuyasha really did trust each other they probably would have known it was a trick, real friends, family doesn't do that" Natsu spoke seriously and determinedly, even when Gray had gotten him caught by Daphne or when Laxus went psycho he hadn't given up on them.
Gajeel and Juvia were from Phantom lord and had completely changed, even if he and the iron stick fought as much as he did with Gray.
In the end they proved they were still people he could count on, family that was there for the guild.
"Your guild, you all look out for each other and trust in each other?" Keade asked as the exceed and dragon slayer gave her truthful grins.
"Yeah, Fairy Tail's a family were there for each other and fight for our friends" Natsu explained as unknown to him things had drastically changed since they left.
"I see" truthfully Keade had never seen someone so fierce about loyalty to their friends.
It would be interesting to see how this battle would go now that Natsu and Happy were involved, from the two's argument though she did wonder exactly if they were being serious about the dragon slayers destruction.
"Hey now we can show Shippo our transformation magic!" Natsu's exclamation broke through the older woman's thoughts.
"I have one more thing to tell ye, a warning" Keade spoke as that caused the three to look back at Keade.
"What kind of warning?" asked Happy nervously?
"Ye best be careful when traveling in foreign villages, many will assume you Natsu and Happy are demons a speaking cat and fangs aren't something people who aren't demonic have" she explained as she didn't want the two to be to hurt from people's reactions.
The pink hair alone would be cause for attention, but the fangs were Natsu's second most obvious feature.
The two seemed to think about it before nodding" Okay, thanks for the warning" Natsu said a little too cheerfully.
The old miko watched the three leave, maybe there really was a reason those two had been pulled into this world.
She stood up picking up an empty basket as she still had some more work to do.
Unfortunately it was both a good thing for Inuyasha and his friends, but something that would lead to a horrible realization for when the time came for the two to return to Fiore.
-Line Break-
"But Sango I was merely telling the future to fair maidens" Miroku was being dragged by his right ear by Sango.
"So groping them and telling them to begin families this very minute is telling the future" a fiery aura surrounded the woman as she glared at the lecherous monk who gave a nervous laugh.
"One of these days you're going to get a taste of your own medicine Miroku" Sango muttered, hoping it would be an unattractive woman who would fawn over him.
"Anyway were suppose to be resting until Kagome returns, so we can continue our quest" Miroku tried to make Sango think about something else.
The demon slayer sighed as she let the monk go" Fine, but that doesn't mean you have to go acting like a dirty old man all the time" at that Miroku gained a gloomy aura.
"Sango you wound me so" the two began to walk as they were near the forest when he turned Sango towards the village.
"Miroku" she threatened as the monk gave her a serious look.
"We should avoid the well until everything calms down, with Inuyasha's ego he wouldn't go for Kagome if he knew we were watching" Miroku explained as Sango blinked.
"I hadn't thought of that, we've been busy thinking about the jewel shard's and now Natsu and Happy" how could she have so foolishly forgot her best friends currently hurt heart.
"I know with Natsu and Happy joining us, things have taken a turn" as currently Lady Keade would probably be explaining things to them.
"Let's go check on them, it's only a matter of time before Inuyasha returns with Kagome and if he doesn't she'll probably come to us" Sango sweatdropped slightly, Inuyasha would be treated to a 'sit' command if the second happened.
He'd deserve it though; Sango still hadn't forgiven him about Kikyo and never would until Inuyasha made a choice.
The day was waning light would only be around for an hour or two as many villagers were finishing up for the day, as the two headed towards Kaede's hut a small cat fell in front of them.
It looked like Happy only his fur was pink and a smaller version of a very familiar scarf was wrapped around his neck.
"Ow, that hurt Happy get over here and face your punishment!" a transformed Natsu yelled into the now almost night air unknowingly sounding like a certain red head, as the two behind him recognized his voice.
"Natsu?" the two asked is disbelief.
Though the dragon slayer didn't get to answer as Shippo's laughter was heard, the fox kit was on Natsu's shoulder only unless he'd recently had his hair turned blue and a tail something weird was going on.
"You wanted to show Shippo our transformation magic" Happy turned Natsu laughed as said dragon slayer turned exceed growled.
"No fish for dinner then!" Natsu threatened as in a familiar puff of pink smoke was back to normal as Happy from shock transformed back.
"WHAT! You can't!" Happy had fallen to the ground eyes wide and turned a very interesting shade of white.
"I can!" the two soon began bickering about fish causing the demon slayer and monk to look at them strangely yet in amusement.
"Shippo, do you know what happened?" Sango asked Shippo who was laughing at Natsu and Happy's ridiculous argument.
"Oh, yeah they were showing me their transformation magic and somehow fish got involved and then a fight and then this" Shippo gave the short explanation as his friends only gave him a 'Seriously' look.
"Their fighting over fish?" Sango couldn't believe it.
"You have to admit they are entertaining" Miroku was holding back his own laughter as exceed and dragon slayer finally gave up.
"Fine you can have fish but don't think this means you've won" Natsu grumbled as Happy laughed.
"Happy one, Natsu zero" the exceed cackled to himself.
The two finally noticed their audience as they waved as if nothing happened, walking over as the two noticed someone was still missing.
"Inuyasha still sulking?" Happy asked as the monk and demon slayer nodded.
"You'd think he'd apologize by now" Sango shrugged.
"He's too stupid" Happy said beating Shippo to the punch.
"Come, we'll watch Inuyasha make a fool of himself tomorrow for now let's get some food and rest" at the mention of food Natsu was sold while Happy couldn't wait for tomorrow to rib the dog demon.
Unknown to the group Kagome and Inuyasha were being as stubborn as mule's both refusing to return for a similar ridiculous reason.
-Line Break-
"So where are we going?" Natsu asked Shippo who was leading him and Happy, who was currently on his head into the forest.
The night before the half demon hadn't returned, his lost in good food was the dragon slayers thought as Shippo had decided to find his moronic friend the next day inviting his new friends.
"The well, Kagome still isn't back so that means Inuyasha is still being an idiot" the two couldn't help but agree.
As soon they saw Inuyasha sitting near the well as before Natsu or Happy could say anything Shippo had run up and already started demanding.
"Come on you wanna see her right, I'm sure if you apologize Kagome would forgive you" Shippo was tired of waiting he wanted Kagome back.
"What are you trying to say? That this is all my fault, she's to blame to ya known" Inuyasha responded back as before Shippo could yell.
"Yeah, but you're the one who got her mad in the first place" the half demon turned to see Natsu and Happy were in the clearing as well, causing him to growl.
"Oh great, you two" Inuyasha wasn't in the mood to get into a fight.
"Well were right, if you hadn't accused Kagome of liking Koga she wouldn't have yelled at you" Happy explained as to what Shippo had told him the night before about the shape of Inuyasha and Kagome's relationship, the dog demon was currently in the wrong.
At hearing Happy's accusation the half demon couldn't help but remember when Kagome saved Koga, causing the dog demon to gain a depressed aura.
"I know Kagome helped Koga escape and I understand that Koga is your sworn enemy, what I don't understand is why Kagome helps him after he kidnapped her" Shippo looked at the half demon that was pretending not to be depressed.
"Well actually a lot of people who were our enemies helped us" the two demons looked at Happy and Natsu when they heard the exceed words.
"Seriously?!" Inuyasha couldn't believe it, neither could Shippo.
"Yeah, it took awhile to trust them but we've actually protected people who used to be our enemies because their our friends now" sure Natsu had been skeptical of Jellal, he had after all made Erza cry and hurt so many.
But in the end he ended up trying to make up for what he had done and even though he had amnesia during their time with the Oracion Seis, he was now their friend same as Meredy and Ultear had become.
"You guys have the weirdest idea for friends" Inuyasha shook his head, for the moment not thinking about his dilemma.
"Yeah, but Koga was only nice to her after he knew she could see the shard's" Shippo explained as he looked at Inuyasha" you guys think its possible Kagome really fell in love with Koga?" Shippo asked as Natsu and Happy dead panned and Inuyasha began to lose his cool.
Though at that moment Inuyasha completely lost it yelling at Shippo for asking him the question in the first place, though just as he grabbed Shippo's tail spinning him extreme heat forced him to let go as Natsu had his usual flame covered fist ready.
"If ya want a fight, all you had to do was ask not try and toss Shippo" seriously the guy had to stop treating the little guy like a human uh, demon punching bag.
"Alright!" the half demon was too enraged to realize what he just accepted, as Happy helped his friend up.
"Well at least he's not yelling anymore" Happy sweatdropped as Natsu and Inuyasha were throwing hits at each other, the half demons anger making him mess up.
"Aye" was all a dizzy Shippo could say.
"That's my line" Happy muttered.
The fight lasted an hour as that was around the time Inuyasha finally calmed down enough, they began to walk through the village Shippo still trying to get Inuyasha to apologize to Kagome with Happy chiming in.
"You should go after her, she's only going to think you really don't like her if you don't" Happy flew near Inuyasha carrying Shippo as the two kept persisting.
"Yeah, when Lucy gets mad at us she forgives us eventually" even if it involved locked windows or a spell locked fridge as punishment or a Lucy kick.
"Yeah, be glad Kagome's really nice" Happy and Natsu shuddering at the memories about when they pissed off Erza.
"Pain, lots of Pain" Natsu's muttering went unnoticed as Inuyasha was still in denial.
"How about Keade, it can't hurt to have the advice of someone older and wiser" Shippo offered as Happy placed him down.
Inuyasha seemed okay with the idea as Shippo turned to look at his friends" You guys coming?" he asked wanting to see if this would end in hilarity or actually fix things.
"Actually, were gonna go fish right Happy?" Natsu looked at his friends as they hadn't had time yesterday but seeing as this problem had yet to resolve itself, they now had plenty of time.
"Okay" Shippo nodded as he began to drag Inuyasha towards Kaede's hut.
"I wonder if Inuyasha is gonna apologize?" Happy asked Natsu as they made their way to the river.
"Who knows" shrugged Natsu, if there was one thing they learned about Inuyasha it was that he had a big ego.
The two didn't think too much into it, after all either Kagome or Inuyasha would give in first and this entire situation would resolve itself.
-Line Break-
"That's what you're apologizing for?" Kagome asked as she looked at her broken alarm clock Inuyasha held.
"Well yeah, I don't have anything else to apologize for" the half demon muttered, even though he was lying.
Kagome reined her anger though, but he was such an idiot! As before she could yell and her friends who were currently about to jump from their places spying on the couple a large pillar of water and the sound of it being launched made them all turn.
It had come from the village river, as without thinking those hidden made themselves known.
"What was that!" asked Kagome, her previous anger forgotten.
"Some sort of explosion?" Miroku offered as at the mention of destruction.
"I think it was Happy and Natsu" Shippo spoke up, causing the other minus Inuyasha to look at the fox kit.
"Hey! What were you guys doing spying on us?" Inuyasha's demand as the others ran towards the falling water" Hey don't ignore me damn it!" the half demon followed his friends as they eventually came across a strange scene.
Happy was cheering as he was gorging himself on a small pile of fish, a few others flopping around in random places a few being able to jump back into the river.
Looking away from the cat they saw their fire breathing friend pull out his hands which had been covered in flames out of the river water, shocking them since his magic seemed to work in its opposite element.
The two finally noticed their gaping as things were silent for a full minute when" Kagome your back!" the two exclaimed as Happy flew over a fish in his paws currently not wearing his green backpack as he had been stuffing a few fish in it.
"Yeah, but uh, what were you guys doing?" Kagome asked what the other's wanted to know.
"Using Natsu's magic to make it rain fish" Happy drooled, as their idea had worked.
And they hadn't destroyed anything!
"So did Inuyasha apologize?" Natsu asked wondering if their dog eared friend had actually reined his ego.
"Sort of" Kagome laughed as Happy flew over to collect his green backpack which now had some fish poking out of it, the green guild mark on his back visible for at the moment.
"Come, let's prepare ourselves before we disembark once again" Miroku spoke up, as now that Kagome had returned there was no reason to stick around too long.
Everyone else agreed especially Inuyasha, though when Kagome asked what they did while she was gone Shippo and Happy recounted how mopey and depressed he had been which resulted in the half demon chasing the two.
For once Natsu let it happen as this was payback for yesterday in his opinion, as both fox and cat cried out for his help.
Unknown to the group having their fun, two new enemies were being created one of wind and reflection.
A trap being put into motion, just how strong was this stranger? Was a though that ran through a spider demons mind, it could deal with the enemy it knew.
But he was no fool to underestimate the enemy he didn't know.
Far off a young woman walked, searching looking a white mist followed along with her soul collectors.
These two would eventually cross paths with the group, for now though they were none the wiser to their future.
Sorry, sorry and sorry, I really, really suck at filler episodes that's why so many of my fanfics never get updated I don't know how to make a good filler chapter, next chapter should be better theirs action
