Chapter 8- The Mysterious Ninja of Togenkyo
This is after season 3 episode 57 "Fateful Night in Togenkyo Part 1" and during season 3 episode 58 "Fateful Night in Togenkyo Part 2". What if Inuyasha didn't defeat Tokajin, but Kagome did?
It was a fateful night in Togenkyo that Kagome sensed a demonic aura at the top of the cliff where there was a tree of human-faced fruits. Before she went to climb up the cliff, she used her locket to disguise herself as a ninja priestess. As she looked at her ninja outfit, she was wearing a black ninja outfit with green laces on her gloves, her belt, her boots, and the bottom of her outfit was a pair of tights under the skirt. She covered her head with a ninja mask that showed her chocolate brown eyes that show a green eye shadow make up on her eyelid. For her hair, it was up in a ponytail. Then, she masked her scent in case of either Shippo or Inuyasha will recognize her scent. She got her weapons ready and went inside Tokajin's place.
As she went inside, the first thing she saw was Inuyasha as human trying to escape from the vines full of thorns, but she didn't see Tokajin with him. Inuyasha looked so vulnerable and weak that he started to lose so much blood and become dizzy. She walked into the room where Inuyasha was, but Inuyasha saw her. He asked, "Who are you?"
Instead of answering, Kagome just threw the shuriken (blades) on the vines, so Inuyasha can be free. Inuyasha was about to walk on his feet, but he got so dizzy that he lost consciousness. As Kagome heard footsteps, she carried Inuyasha and hid into the other room where there were weapons and a box garden. She saw Inuyasha's Tetsusaiga and two tiny people coming out of the box garden, revealing to be Miroku and Shippo. Kagome grabbed the Tetsusaiga, took Miroku and Shippo, and ran to safety. By the time she got outside, she stopped on the edge of the cliff and look for a way to escape, except she couldn't because she wanted Miroku and Shippo back into their normal sizes. Inuyasha started to wake up, and saw Kagome as a ninja priestess, unknowingly recognizing her. She put him down, but heard voices coming from a talking fertilizer who happened to be Tokajin's former mentor. Tokajin's former mentor told them the story about how Tokajin became a sage and the demon tree's origins.
Tokajin came up behind them, and showed that he possessed a sacred jewel shard in his belly button. Kagome sensed it as Tokajin used his staff that contained the same vines full of thorns that injured Inuyasha. Suddenly, Inuyasha protected the ninja priestess from getting hurt by injuring himself. Kagome unsheathed her sai swords and fought him as long as she can. Inuyasha got up on his feet, and rushed to help Kagome by throwing the container full of human faced fruits and a liquid potion. Inuyasha was about to take the jewel shards before Kagome did, but Tokajin knocked him out.
Inuyasha got on his feet again, and charged at Tokajin for the second time, but Tokajin used his staff that created vines full of thorns, and choked Inuyasha on the neck to pin him to the tree. Kagome saw the sacred jewel shard from his back that she sheathed her sai swords and used her archery weapons to target the sacred jewel shards. She released the arrow, and rushed towards Inuyasha to take the jewel shards coming out from Tokajin's belly. Inuyasha saw the sacred jewel shards, Tokajin's original form, and Kagome taking the jewel shards before he did. Kagome, as the ninja priestess, got Inuyasha away from the tree, and did what she wanted to do with Inuyasha. She closed her eyes to pull up her ninja mask and kiss Inuyasha's lips. Inuyasha closed his eyes because he loved the kiss, and Kagome immediately pulled her mask back on. Tokajin chased her to the edge of the cliff, but she managed to dodge him by making him be on the edge of the cliff. She spiral-kicked him, waved Inuyasha goodbye, and then jumped to finish the job.
While falling, she unsheathed one of her sai swords and stabbed Tokajin in his cold-blooded heart, and landed on the cliff side as Tokajin landed onto the rocks deadly. She held the sacred jewel shards that she stole from Inuyasha's group to combine the shards she took from Tokajin. The sacred jewel reached its half mark, and as she landed on the rocks safely, she checked if Tokajin is dead. She looked up and saw the tree dying and Inuyasha's group. Inuyasha transformed back from human to half demon, Miroku and Shippo grew back into their normal sizes.
From the moment she saw them, she knew she had to go away from them, so she threw the escape bombs on the rocks and smoke covered her. Inuyasha jumped down from the cliff and reach Kagome, but he saw her ninja appearance disappear. Miroku and Shippo got down from the cliff, and continued their journey with Inuyasha.
