A/N: I am so sorry that it took me so long to get this chapter up I didn't mean to pretty much forget about my stories. Well I'm going on concentrate on this one a bit more because it's almost over I'm thinking probably one or two more chapters after this one then the story will be done. Sorry again for the long wait I'll stop talking now and let you read.

Disclaimer: I don't won Inuyasha or any of it's character except my ocs and this plot.

Chapter 33: We found it!

Hikari and the group started walking early the next morning to try and get a jumpstart and not to get caught in anything else. They went as quietly as they could so they didn't stir up any demons that were captured with in the barrier. Daisuke's spell has well worn off but the boys were safe from harms way with the barrier walls and they were capable to fight at full strength; which was a relief for Hikari and Rokuro.

"Is it just me or are these woods getting darker and darker by the second?" Rokuro question breaking the silence in the group.

"Yea, it does seem like it is." Hikari responded looking around.

"When are we going to get to the mountain?" Rokuro sighed.

"When we get there." Hiro smirked looking back at his friend.

"Oh ha ha I could have figured that out Hiro." Rokuro stuck his tongue out at Hiro.

"You two can act like such children." Hikari sighed and shook her head and Daisuke laughed a little and continued to lead the group to the mountain.

'We're getting close, I can feel it.' Daisuke thought as he looked up and could see a decent part of the mountain through the trees.

"I'm so bored." Rokuro complained.

"So find something to entertain yourself with." Hiro commented.

Rokuro shrugged his shoulders and just kept walking there wasn't really much he could do. Well the next break that the group was going to take he decided that he was going to clean his weapons because he hadn't done that in a while also it gave him something to concentrate on then the silence that was always lingering with the group.

"How much trouble do you think we're going to get in when we get home?" Hikari asked.

"Probably a lot." Hiro said not looking back.

"I hope that they're not worried." She muttered and looked down at the ground.

"Of course our parents are going to be worried about us." Rokuro mentioned and picked up a twig and started pealing the bark off of it.

"Well thank you for the ease of thought Rokuro." Hikari snapped.

He sighed and looked over at her "You know I'm telling the truth. What was I supposed to do lie to you and tell you oh they don't care about what we do?" He asked.

"Stop fighting you two or I'm going to knock both of you out." Daisuke warned turning around and glaring at them.

"We're not fighting." They said in unison.

"Well you were getting ready too and I don't want to hear it, we'll take a break when we get to the base of the mountain, it's not that far off now." He said and with that continued walking.

Hikari and Rokuro looked down at the ground and didn't say another word. Hiro glared at Daisuke and caught up with his pace easily. "What is your problem?" He asked.

"I have no problem." Dai answered.

"Yes you do, you snapped at Hikari." Hiro stated.

"I just don't want to here any bickering right now, I didn't mean to snap." He apologized.

"Let's take a break." Hiroshi ordered.

"I said we'll take a break at the base of the mountain." Dai rejected.

"And who made you the leader of the group?" Hiroshi questioned with the anger rising in his voice.

"Considering I have the kids soul in me I think that's a pretty good reason." Daisuke spat.

"Stop it you two!" Hikari shouted over top of them and Rokuro got in between them.

"Look obviously we're all a bit restless right now why don't we just take our break here and relax, we're by the stream and the mountain isn't too far off. You've dealt with Zen being in you for this long you can make it a little longer." Rokuro said pushing them both away from each other before something bad happened.

"Fine if you guys want to take a break so bad then take a break I'm going ahead see you at the mountain." Daisuke scoffed and walked off.

"Daisuke, wait." Hikari shouted and ran after him.

Rokuro started to go after her but Hiroshi held her back and shook his head. "If there's anyone that can calm his nerves it's Hikari." Hiro said and watched his little sister disappear into the woods.

"Daisuke, Daisuke!" Hikari yelled after him and he stopped but didn't turn around. "What's wrong Dai?" She asked with concern in her voice.

"I just want you to be happy." He answered looking down at the ground.

"Daisuke, I know that I want to see Zen again but I would rather all of us stick together. Zen can wait a little longer." She told him and took his hand then pulled him lightly back towards where Hiroshi and Rokuro were.

"I'm sorry." He whispered as he let himself be pulled back to the group.

"Don't be, you were just trying to make me happy. Now lets just get back to the others and relax." She smiled at him as they walked back out into a clearing for a second.

He looked up at her and a small smile spread across his lips "Thank you."

"You're welcome." She chirped and they somewhat jogged the rest of the way back to Hiroshi and Rokuro.

They were resting against a couple of trees when Daisuke and Hikari got there. Rokuro was cleaning his weapons and Hiro had his eyes closed. Hikari and Daisuke sat down close by the two and relaxed for a couple of hours. They let the hottest part of the day pass then they started walking again. When the group started out again they felt much better and rejuvenated. They seemed to be moving a bit faster pace as well. Even though no one said anything it was enjoyable to be around instead of that awkward silence. Soon enough the group of four were at the base of the mountain and they entered the cave that was just fifty meters away form where they exited the forest.

The silence when Hikari, Hiroshi, Rokuro, and Daisuke entered the cave was strange. No one wanted to make a sound because they didn't know what was going to come around the next turn so the only thing that broke the silence was the occasional drip of water that hit small puddles. Compared to outside where it was hot and dry with a very low humidity the cave was dark and damp also it was a much cooler the further that they got into the cave. Daisuke lead the way through the cave and the rest of the group were able to keep up with him just fine.

'Damn how far into the cave do we have to go?' Hiroshi thought as he jumped over a small cavern that Daisuke took them over. 'And Daisuke seems to be in more of a trance.'

Daisuke wasn't in a trance he just knew that the farther that they went into the cave the stronger the presence of Zen's body got. He picked up the pace a bit and then he entered a huge cavern with what looked like a slowly descending slop went off the side of where he was standing to get to the bottom. Hikari, Rokuro, and Hiro came out of the cave and Hiroshi looked over the edge of the small platform that they were standing on.

"It looks like there's something glowing at the bottom." He commented.

Daisuke jumped off and flew down to the bottom he knew that it was Zen's body and he knew what he had to do to get Zen back into his own body luckily enough it didn't involve him dying just giving a good amount of his energy up leaving him in a weakened state. Hikari and the others carefully ran down the slop to get to the bottom. When they got to the bottom they saw that Zen's body was being held with in a barrier.

"I have to start transferring Zen's soul back into his own body." Daisuke commented and went to break the barrier.

Just as he was about to break it something came screaming out of the shadows with tremendous speed and knocked Daisuke up into the air.

…TO BE CONTINUED…
