Kagura's Attack

Naraku sat content at his castle, staring into Kanna's mirror. He saw Kagome and Shippo alone. He saw Inuyasha mile away from where they lay. And most of he saw the jewel shards. Inside Kagome's shirt were three pure shards of the jewel. He laughed as he thought about how easy taking them would be.

Kagome's body laid inside the sleeping bag her head resting on the pillow. Shippo next to her head breathed heavily from sleep. Kagome's eyes were closed, but she was not sleeping. Her mind raced with thought. She turned her head to look at the fire. It had died out, the ash still burning red. Then she turned her head to her other side. Her bow and arrows lay next to her. She put them there incase a demon of some sort attacked them in the night. Since she had nothing better to do she counted the arrows.

1, 2, 3…7, 8…15, 16, 17.

17 arrows. Would that be enough to get them to the well? She wondered. She turned her head to the starry sky, 'What are the odds of a demon attacking them?' she saw a shooting star and another thought passed through her mind, 'Inuyasha. What are the chances of you being there to save us?'

She turned her head into her pillow and let it sock up her tears. She wished Inuyasha was there. So he could yell at her, "I've looking for you all night! WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?!!!" and she would get up and throw her arm around his neck and cry into his chest. Then he's whisper her name and put his arms around her. Then Sango and Miroku interrupt there perfect moment by jumping in and scaring the crap out of them. Then Kilala would jump into the scene and brush against Kagome's leg as she bent down and pet her. 'But this could only be a dream,' she thought as she finally began to fall asleep.

Kagura throw a feather from her hair into the air. In a second it expanded and she jumped on it as it flew off.

Kagura. Kagome is asleep in the forests to the south of here. She is alone and has three shards of the jewel. I want you to rid her of them.

"Damn that Naraku!" Kagura said to herself, "Dose he really expect me to follow his orders much longer?" she growled at the thought of Naraku and how she was like a slave to him. Something caught her eye. In a small clearing, not to far ahead lay a girl and what looked like a very small from her height. She smiled as she began to lower toward the ground.

Shippo jerked into a sitting position. He herd Kagura slice through the air and thought the wind had picked up. With his eyes still closed he sniffed the air. This scent was familiar. Then he realized what it was. His eyes snapped open and he started shaking Kagome, "Naraku!!!" he whispered harshly, "Kagome! Wake up! IT'S NARAKU!!!"

Kagome sat up. Her eyes open and bow already in hand. She grabbed the arrows and stood up looking around. Shippo held tightly to Kagome's leg thinking it was enough to hide him. Kagome who was still in her pajamas brought an arrow to her bow and looked around. Something blocking the stars caught her eye. She pulled the arrow against the string of her bow and aimed. She was still half asleep but was awake enough to know they were in danger and she must act quickly. When she felt her aim was perfect, she released the arrow toward Kagura.

Kagura flew back and waved her fan to blow the arrow away. Then Kagome grabbed Shippo and ran of into the woods, bow still in hand, arrows strapped to her back. Her eyelids were heavy. All she wanted was to collapse on the ground right there. But she knew better. Even half awake she still could tell Shippo's and her lives where at stake here.

Kagra flew over head, "Give me the jewel and I will spare your lives."

Shippo turned his head toward Kagure, "We'll never give the jewel to the likes of you!"

Kagura frowned and Shippo hid his face in Kagome's sholder out of fear. Kagura put her fan to her lips, "Ignorant fools…" she spread out her fan, "Dance of the Dragon!"

Kagome's eyes widened as a figure stepped out in front of her. In seconds he had Kagome of the ground and in his arm then dogged Kagura's attack. Kagome felt Shippo slipping off her body and quickly grabbed him and held him in her arms before he passed out, then looked at the being who saved them. All she saw was silver hair that lightly brushed against her face before she passed out as well.

'Inu…Inuyasha?'

Wow. I can't seem to make it long enough. Maybe I should add more detail. Tell me if ya like it!
