Chapter 1
Ghoul That Overcome Time
"Now why'd you get in my way…? Chan-Hina?" Takizawa asked in mocking tone.
Before going to the location, thanks to someone is hijacking the control room of the auction building, Hinami manage to hear the scream of someone very dear to her being pummeled ruthlessly by the Artificial Owl.
Her dear Big Brother.
Not obeyed her comrades warning, she quickly rush toward the hall of the Auction Building and manage to save Kaneki, or now known as Haise just in time from Takizawa finishing blow. Her Rinkaku-type Kagune is attacking Takizawa, which evade the attack with ease, before constrict Haise's body and bring him to her hand to save him.
Despite her fearsome spine-like Kagune, she actually did not like to fight. For her view of Takizawa, she never view him as enemies, just unlucky human who being torture and lost his humanity. And ever since he became a member of Aogiri Tree, she already view him as comrades. She knows that Takizawa due to his insanity is very hard to convince, but at least she must try.
"He can be useful for us." Hinami tried persuading him while looking at her dear Big Brother face, which had some blood in it. She later put him down on the floor. "Takizawa-san, you shall go and assist Rabbit."
But instead of agreeing to his fellow Aogiri, Takizawa suddenly jumps to the air and unleashing his Kagune. "For that matter… I DON'T TAKE ORDERS FROM YOU!" He replied in crazed tone before shooting Kagune Shards toward Hinami. Swinging all four of her spine-like Rinkaku, she manages to block all of the Kagune Shards.
'Onii-chan. Even if you're meaningless… Even if you just a vessel… Even if you didn't recognize me anymore… If this person is the only vessel for your soul…' Hinami thought while tried to stab Takizawa with her Kagune, which of course is futile because Takizawa is completely outclass her in all term. Instead, Takizawa manage to break half of her mask using the direct shoot of a single Kagune Shard while avoiding Hinami's attack, before landing to a fence on the Auction hall second floor. Hinami stumble for a while because of the attack.
Hinami later manage to gain her balance, once again readying her Kagune, that grown massive to attack Takizawa. She then taking protective stance in front of Haise unconscious body, her broken mask show one of her Kakugan. 'I'll protect you! I won't let you fight alone anymore!' She declared before launching three of her Rinkaku toward Takizawa's perch. He later manage to jump upward to avoid the attack, but this is what Hinami's been waiting for.
Using the first attack as a diversion, she manage to hide the last of her Rinkaku that being obscure by the other three and the dust that cause by the previous attack, before launch it toward Takizawa who doesn't expecting any attack. It was a direct hit; Hinami's manage to pierce through Takizawa's gut using her Kagune, before the last three later launch upward as well and slashing wildly at Takizawa's body, making him scream in pain before crash heavily on the floor of the Auction Hall.
Hinami later look toward the fallen Owl with wariness. Her Kakugan still active. However, she can only open her mouth in shock by what she saw.
Takizawa managed to stand up from the attack, and it appears that he didn't sustain any injuries at all. "Ouch… Ouch… You're pretty tough... You know that..." Takizawa praise her while stand up, his back facing Hinami. He later turn his body to look at her, showing that he activated his incomplete Kakuja. "Chan-Hina… If you keep this up you'll… Make me ROSE MY BREATH!" He said with a sick smile on his face. His single Kakugan is flared wildly.
'How could he still be standing? Even Big Brother, Ayato, and Mr. Tsukiyama will be paralyzed for a while.' Hinami thought in disbelief with what she saw. She however already make her mind that she'll protect Haise, even it meant her death. She knows that surprise attack like that will not work twice. Before become a Ghoul, despite being a low-rank Officer, Takizawa at least learn to adapt at Ghoul fighting style. She then launch one of her Kagune to attack. 'If at least I can dealt one fatal attack once more, even Takizawa-san will be paralyzed for a while. I'll make him drop his guard again!' She strategized. 'If I right, I can guess that he'll jump upward to avoid it!'
Takizawa just grin, before avoiding the attack in a speed that completely different from his base form. He later already in the air. "MAKE ME MORE FIRED UP CHAN-HINA!?"
'Such speed. Even so… He can't avoid my attacks in mid-air.' Hinami later launch two more of her Kagune to attack Takizawa. The Owl manage to avoid one of her Kagune before seemingly going to pierce through hid gut once more, only for him to acrobatically grab her miss Kagune and seemingly using immense physical strength, he pull the Kagune which in turn, making Hinami also being pull from the ground as well.
'He manages to pull me?' She thought in disbelief.
"SO BORING!" Takizawa said in disappointment. When Hinami is closer, he later appear in front of her before giving her hard punch in the gut, making her spitting some blood and later thrown her to the Auction Hall's stage, making her body hit the floor heavily and creating huge dust.
The dust later cleared, revealing that Hinami manage to survive the attack although she had many bruises on her body and her mask is crack heavily. Seeing it, she later put off her mask to face Takizawa, who grinning in the air. However, the damage really takes a toll on her. She find it become very hard to stand on her feet. "So… This is the power… Of the Owl…" She said, acknowledging the fact that Takizawa is one of the current Aogiri strongest executive. 'Even so… I must protect Onii-chan!'
"NOW THE LAST ATTACK!" Takizawa then sending barrage of Kagune Shards, which becoming faster than before toward Hinami.
Having little strength left to unleash her Kagune, Hinami has no choice but protecting her head using both of her arm. Putting it in cross in front of her face, she received the Kagune Shards, making her dragged backward because of the attack force. 'It becomes stronger!'
However, she failed to realizing the fact that behind her, there seemingly a trapdoor. Because of Takizawa attack, when Hinami's feet touch the trapdoor, it suddenly open and a gust of wind suddenly form.
Hinami later realizing that her foot didn't touch the floor of the Auction Hall's stage, she later look down to see that a trapdoor is open. "Trap door… Since when-" She unable to finish her words as gust of wind seemingly tried to pull her down from the trapdoor. 'Could this be… Trap set by CCG!'
Takizawa seeing this as a perfect opportunity to finish the young Ghoul once and for all. Landing on the platform, he later dash toward Hinami. "OH NO CHAN-HINA! WE STILL NOT FINISH-" He unable to continue his words as before he manage to strike Hinami using his Kagune, the gust of wind seemingly repel him off, making him thrown several feet before landing on the chair that located in the Auction Hall.
As for Hinami, she still holding on using her left hand that grab the floor of the Auction Hall stage to prevent her body fall into the trapdoor. 'This wind… Is sucking me in!' She thought as she struggled to pull her body from the trapdoor, but find it hard. 'My body… Is so heavy… I.. Can't hold on anymore…' She thought as her grip becomes lessened. Before her grip is completely off, she uttering the name of someone that's so dear to her.
"Onii… Chan…" She then lost her grip before falling completely to the seemingly bottomless trapdoor.
Meanwhile on completely different timeline, Kagome Higurashi is returning back to the Sengoku Jidai to continuing her mission along with Inuyasha to collect all the Shikon Jewel Shards that she break by accident. It's been few days since she and Inuyasha defeating Sakasagami no Yura, a female Oni that obsessed with Shikon Jewel Shards.
For Kagome, she thought all of this about she seemingly return back to Ancient Japan, where Daimyo are fighting for supremacy over Japan, while many villagers live as the same as depicted in historical books about Medieval Japan. However, after she met with Inuyasha and realized that behind his attitude is actually a kind person, she can help herself but enjoying his company, even though they have many arguments over time.
Climbing the vines of the Bone Eater's Well to reach the surface, she's seen wearing a blue sweater with turquoise short-skirt and wearing a backpack to help her studying while she going on an adventure in Sengoku Jidai. She also surprisingly is bringing her bicycle.
"Okay then." Kagome later pat her own cheek. "Now let's go find some jewel shards." She then pull her bike and ready to riding toward Kaede's House, when she saw a person that lie on the grass few meters from the Bone Eater's Well. "Oh my…" She later parks her bicycle before run toward it.
The person is revealed to be Hinami, who's unconscious and badly injured from her fight Takizawa. Her cape is being ripped off and her mask is gone.
'A girl… Maybe she's year older than me…' She thought as she later tried to touch her forehead. When she managed to do so, she feel that Hinami's body is burning up. "She had a fever. It must have been because of all these wounds… And the clothes… Is she also from my era?" Kagome said in confusion before finally decided what she must do. She picks up Hinami's left hand and support her to stand. "I'm sorry… But I can't leave you in a place like this." She said. 'I must get her medical attention in Kaede-baasan house as soon as possible.'
Hinami meanwhile, mumble before slowly opening her eyes tiredly because of her body condition. 'I… Being support by someone.' She later weakly look to see that Kagome is the one that do it. 'Who's this young girl? From her scent, she's human.' She thought in wary, afraid that she will be taken into CCG. She then tried to move herself from Kagome.
Kagome, sensing that Hinami's moving, look at her. "Don't move too much. You have a fever and your body is injured." She said before continue to walk toward Kaede's House. "Don't worry, I'll treat your wounds there."
Hinami wary slowly disappear after she's hearing those words. 'I don't know why… But this girl… I can't sense any kind of lies from her words. She's… Being sincere…' She thought as she being support by Kagome to the direction that she wanted.
"I see." Kaede, the old miko of the Bone Eater's Well Village understand the circumstances. She and Kagome currently sit facing each other and in between them, She lit a fire. Hinami is seen behind Kagome, lie down while Kagome placing a compress on her forehead to ease the fever. Kaede still had her right arm injured due to Yura's.
Kagome nod while drinking a tea from her private glass. "I don't who she is but… She seemingly from the same time as I did." She said. "What kind of person that dares to hurt a girl like that…" She said in disgust on who or what that dare to hurt Hinami like that. "By the way… Where's Inuyasha?" She asked.
"He's outside like usual. If you want to search for him, don't worry. I'll take care of her." Kaede assured.
Kagome later smiled. "Thanks Kaede-baasan." She thanked before bring her medical kit and go to Inuyasha's location.
Kaede later look toward Hinami's unconsciouss body. 'A time traveler just like Kagome? I wonder how she could also get through the Bone Eater's Well…' She thought while patting Hinami's forehead softly.
"O… Nii… Chan…" Hinami uttered in her sleep.
On Kagome, she's bicycling toward the tree where Inuyasha's sitting at. She later look up and saw the Hanyo is seen lie down on one of the tree branches while looking toward the blue sky.
"Hey you. Why don't you come down here and let me give you first aid treatment?" Kagome offered.
"First aid treatment? I don't need it. Go away!" Inuyasha harshly denied.
"You do to. I was there remember?" Kagome insist, remind him of his injuries while fighting against Yura. "Come down here."
"No." Inuyasha didn't want to.
"I said come down here." Kagome said in annoyed tone.
"Tch." Inuyasha scoffed, really not interested in this first-aid kit.
Kagome then decided there's no other way except that. "Osuwari." She ordered.
Suddenly, Inuyasha is falling down and fall face-first very hardly to the ground. "Auh!" He yelled in pain after his face is touching the ground. This is the effect of Kotodama no Nenju that being place by Kaede to keep Inuyasha's temper under control.
"Uh…" Inuyasha grunted before look toward Kagome with annoyed look on his face. "What'd you do that for?" Inuyasha asked.
Kagome later walk toward him, squat down to look at him eye to eye while holding her first-aid kit box on her hands. "I'll just take a look okay. When you're hurt that bad you need a medical treatment you know?" Kagome explaining the meaning of medical treatment toward the hot-headed Hanyo.
"I said Go Away! You act that I'm the one who lost!" Inuyasha yelled at her, insisting that he had no need of such thing. After all since he's not human, his injuries healed at much faster rate than a human.
Kagome sighed, before she suddenly jump and sit on Inuyasha's body. "Undress." She ordered.
"What!? "
"I said take it off!" Kagome then tried to open Inuyasha's robe to show his chest so he can be treat.
"What if I don't feel like it!?" Inuyasha asked mockingly.
"Undress!" Kagome insisted as she and Inuyasha is struggle to prevent each of their own actions.
"So you like each other more than I first thought." An old woman's voice is commenting the scene with interest. Both of Kagome and Inuyasha look toward the source of the voice, and seeing Kaede is walking toward them with her bow as support for her body. After that, they both look at each other in embarrassment before separating themselves as far as they can.
Inuyasha immediately stand up and fixing his robe. "I would've thought that you'll figure out right now that my bodies different." He said while pulling down the sleeve of his left shoulder, showing that the wound that cause by Yura is already gone without a trace.
Kagome gasp then put his right index finger on her chin. "It's already gone…" She said while a little surprise by Inuyasha extraordinary healing.
"For so great wound to have healed so quickly and leave no scar…" Kaede commented. She also amazed by this fact.
"Look! Just because it would've killed a human don't make it a big deal for someone like me!" Inuyasha said harshly while fixing his trademark red robe.
'He's not all human but not Yokai either. Can someone be half?' Kagome thought in understanding about Inuyasha's heritage.
Inuyasha wincing in pain, like something is piercing some part of his body. He then look on his chest and on it shown a flea but wearing clothes and seemingly had a mustache is sucking his blood. On his back is also shown round hat.
The flea later look toward Inuyasha. "Greetings Inuyasha-sama." He greet.
But what Inuyasha do instead replying the greeting is smack the flea head-on with his left hand, making he later slowly fall to the ground while comically flattened. "Well if it isn't Myouga-jiiji?" Inuyasha finally greet him.
"That's Flea?" Kagome never expected that flea in this time is act like human except their taste with blood. She then look toward Myouga who slowly falls to the ground.
Myouga's body finally touches the ground. Inuyasha later kneel to look at him. "So… What'd you come to see me about?" He asked rather rudely.
Myouga body suddenly turn to normal. "Inuyasha-sama. I come to-" He's not finishing his words yet as the gust of wind suddenly makes him hard to stand and then he falls to the ground, immobilized.
Kagome is revealing that she spray Myouga using insecticide, not knowing that he's Flea Yokai, not an actual flea.
"What's that do?" Inuyasha asked in confusion, not understand at all about the stuff from Kagome's modern time.
Kagome then realized that Myouga is not a flea. "Whoops."
The time later skip to sunset. In Kaede's House; Inuyasha, Kagome, Kaede, and Myouga are seen sitting facing the bonfire that was make by Kaede. Behind the place where Kagome's sit, Hinami is still seen sleeping due to her injuries. In front of Kaede's House, two young children are seen looking and touching Kagome's bicycle, amazed by this foreign technology.
"What did you mean someone's tried to find my dad's tomb?" Inuyasha asked Myouga. He only have very little attachment to his father, since he's already dead long ago. Heck even Inuyasha don't ever see his face when he still alive.
"As guardian of his final resting place I can bare it no longer." Myouga replied.
"So you took off and came here instead?" Inuyasha asked with a high tone, not expecting that Myouga, one of his father old friend is such a coward.
"But it's the remains that are important." Myouga later continuing the explanation, ignoring Inuyasha. "And they're no longer there."
Inuyasha now understand what Myouga's mean. "Oh, so where are the remains then?"
Myouga raised his hand and shook his head, meaning that he doesn't know. "Regrettably sire, no one knows." He replied.
Inuyasha later look bored by this conversation. "Some guardian you are." He commented.
Kaede later look at Inuyasha. "Inuyasha. They said your father was a Daiyokai? That the western land was his domain." Kaede asked. She hear so much rumor about Inuyasha's father since it strength make him respected by both humans and Yokai alike. Even her older sister tells her that he can't be beaten by any mortal.
"Can't say that I remember him that well." Inuyasha replied.
"Your father was a Yokai among all Yokai. Great and powerful. His blood was especially delicious." Myouga explain while joking about Inuyasha's father blood taste. Of course what'd he get is also the same: smack until flattened. "And you Inuyasha-sama have inherited that from him."
This topic picks up Kagome interest. She never expected that Inuyasha is come from such a great heritage. "And what about his mom?" She asked Myouga.
"She was a beauty beyond compare. And true-" Myouga continue as he suddenly being pinned by Inuyasha's foot. "Ugh."
Inuyasha is seen with an angry look on his face. He seemingly didn't like this topic of conversation.
Kagome immediately yell. "Hey that wasn't very nice!" She said.
Inuyasha later walk out from the house after looking toward Kagome with rather annoyed face. "Just drop it okay! She died a long time ago!" Inuyasha replied gruffly.
"Sorry about that." Kagome said, although she's pretty sure Inuyasha didn't hear it. She later look toward Kaede. "Did something I say make him upset?"
"Well…" Kaede unable to answer.
"I'm sorry. All I did was… Asking about… His mother…" Kagome said, feeling guilty about the question she asked. Seemingly Inuyasha and his mother have broken relationship.
"Yes. Inuyasha-sama is always preferred not to speak of her." Myouga said in sad tone, also regret what he's talking before.
After hearing that, Kagome immediately stand up and walk from the house. 'Why'd Inuyasha's so upset because of his mother?' She thought.
Myouga later look at Kaede. "Kaede-san. I think you already understand it since we begin the conversation but… The young girl who's sleeping in our entire conversation." He said talking about Hinami. "She's not human."
Kaede is bit surprised. She didn't realize it due to her Spiritual Power is less sharp than the time she was younger. "I don't realize it because of my Spiritual Power is not as strong as before. But somehow I can tell that this girl is not a human." She replied.
After Kaede's saying those words, Hinami is uttering something before slowly opening her eyes. She feels that her body is lie down in some wooden floor. She then sit up while touching her forehead, still feeling unwell enough because of the injuries that Takizawa gave her. 'Where am I… Last thing that I remember… I was brought here by a young girl…' She thought.
"I'm glad that you're awake young child." Kaede said with relief.
Hinami immediately widen her eyes in shock and turn to see that Kaede and Myouga is looking at her intently. Her muscle later tense, afraid that this human is a CCG. 'An old human women! And some kind of strange insect wearing clothes!?' She thought.
Kaede's realized that Hinami is wary of her. "Don't worry child. I'm assured you I mean no harm. In fact, you should thank Kagome for saving you. You have very bad injuries before." She assured.
"Bad… Injuries? Kagome…?" Hinami didn't understand any words that Kaede said. She then tried to stand up, only to find it hard because of her injuries. 'Takizawa-san is giving me severe injuries more than I've thought!'
"Just sit child." Kaede said. She then pouring a soup and later bring it toward Hinami. "Here. It will warm your body."
Hinami look at it. 'I can't eat those!' She thought. If she ever eat that, her Ghoul nature will be found out. She can't possibly mimicking human eating normal food now due to her body condition.
Myouga later narrow his eyes. "Kaede-san, I think you shall go out. I shall speak with her privately." He said.
Kaede is confused for a while, before nod and walk to the outside, leaving Myouga and Hinami on her own house.
Myouga later sigh. "Young girl. You should eat that soup." He said.
Hinami want to deny it. "I… Don't like that kind of food…" She lied. "And… What kind of person are you? How could… Insect talk?"
'So the scent that I smell is correct. I'm pretty sure Inuyasha-sama also realized it.' He thought. "Young girl… I can guess you're not human am I right?"
Myouga's word seemingly make Hinami tense once more. How could he know it? Even humans must do a hard investigation to uncover Ghoul's true identity. Yet this seemingly strange creature. "H-Ho…"
"No need to be afraid. I not the type of people that judge the others because of their species." Myouga said. "I can assume from the look of your disgust toward the human food… You're Ghoul…"
Hinami can't deny it now. This strange insect manage to uncover her identity as Ghoul without even investigate her. Not to mention her injuries meaning she had not enough power to fight back. "Y-yes… I am…" She admitted. "You… Can do everything you want with me…" She said while look down, ready to accept her fate if she must die here.
"Don't look sad young girl. From the look of your face, I know that you have a very hard life. It's not a live of a young girl like you shall experience." Myouga said.
Hinami now widen her eyes. She then look toward Myouga. "You… Pitying me? A Ghoul?" She asked, not expecting any of it. Maybe if the one that hearing this is Ayato or Touka, they'll immediately hostile or not easily trusting. But Hinami knows that not all humans are bad. Nishiki relationships with Kimi is one of them.
Myouga later pick the soup to Hinami. "Eat it." He ordered.
Hinami then hastily pick the soup and tried it first. Bringing the spoon inside her mouth, she tasted the soup and then widen her eyes. She releasing the spoon that she hold, making it fall to the wooden floor. A single tear later rolled down from her hazelnut eyes. "S-so… This… Is how… Human food… Taste…" She said. "It… Like a…" 'Like a child's blood...'
"I said it's okay isn't it?" Myouga said. "Ghouls are actually able to eat something besides human flesh like some Yokai. However… Many of them didn't realize it…"
Hinami later look at Myouga. "Um excuse me… But what kind of creature are you? I've never heard of insect looks physically like human and talking." She asked curiously. Seemingly part of her want to trust Myouga, Kaede, and this Kagome who saving her.
"I'm Myouga the Flea, a Yokai. What's your name then young girl?" Myouga introduced himself before asking Hinami's name.
"… Hinami. Hinami… Fueguchi." Hinami replied, still not fit about other creatures beside other Ghouls is not trying to harm her. 'A Yokai? If I not wrong, Onii-chan once told me about a legend of the time called Sengoku Jidai where Yokai are thriving and bring fears toward humans.' She thought while remembering some precious time she had with Kaneki.
"Hinami I see. A nice name." Myouga said, tried to cheer the young Ghoul up. "But… I think this sounds personal. Judging from your clothes, are you perhaps another time-traveller like Kagome-sama?"
This question make Hinami's more confused. "Time-traveller? What'd you mean? Isn't this in Tokyo?" She asked.
"Toki-o? What'd you talking about young Hinami. There's no place with that name." Myouga replied. "We're currently in Bone Eater's Well Village. And this time is called Sengoku Jidai."
"Sengoku… Jidai?" Hinami become more confused. 'Does that mean… I've been travelling back in time? How could that possible…' "Th-that means…"
Myouga nod. "You see. Kagome-sama who's saving you is also a time-traveller." He revealed. "I heard that she suddenly fell to the Bone Eater's Well from the more modern time than us. And with her… A sacred gems called Shikon Jewel is also return back to this time. And afterward, she unexpectedly broke the jewel, making her and Inuyasha go in an adventure to search all the jewel shards." He explain.
"I… See…" Hinami tried to put all of the explanation. Although it's maybe hard to digest easily. "Myouga-jiisan… Do you know…? The reason why had Ghouls… Able to eat human food in here?" She asked.
"In fact, they can. But like you already know, like most Yokai in general, Ghouls need meat from animals or humans to survive." Myouga replied. "Didn't in your time all of your kind also does the same?"
Hinami shook her head. "In my time… There's no Yokai. Ghouls persecuted and hunt down by humans… Just because we can only eat human flesh…" She said while had a sad look on her face. "In turn… Most Ghoul fight back… And some of them even lose their sanity thanks to it…" She remembers about how Takizawa and Noro act.
"I see. Your world is really messy isn't it?" Myouga asked.
"Uhum." Hinami nod. "What about here?"
"Well… This maybe sounds hurtful. However, Ghouls in here… Are so reduced that only little of them left now." Myouga replied. "During the time Inuyasha's father, Toga-sama ruling the Western Land, he had made a regulation to his allies to protect Ghouls. However, many Yokai did not accept that. Your kind in here are also considers as Yokai. Nevertheless, among all, you're regard as lowest of the low. Because of any types of Yokai, Ghouls are the weakest, being easily decimate and killed off by other Yokai and Demon Slayer because despite Toga-sama effort, many of Ghouls also did like you told me. The extermination become more tense after he died, and now hardly any Ghouls remain on this land."
"That's…" Hinami unable to said. She feels so much pity for the Ghouls of this time.
"I know that's a sad fate for one race that's misunderstood. It's something that can't be changed no matter what you do." Myouga said. "But… Seeing a Ghoul even from another time is a relief for me. I wonder, what he'll think about this…"
"So it's about that conversation. I still don't know about Inuyasha-san, but… I want to thank Kagome-san for saving me." Hinami said, revealing that she heard the entire conversation thanks to her sharp ear.
"She's currently in the outside. Are you okay with those injuries? Although your healing rate is also the same as Yokai in general…"
"It's okay Myoga-jiisan." Hinami close her eyes while smiling. She then struggle to stand up. 'So most of my injuries are healed enough.' She thought about the injuries that inflicted by Takizawa. "Do you know where'd Kagome-san going?"
"She must have been gone to Inuyasha-sama's location. I'll escort you there." Myouga offered.
On the outside, Kagome is seen using her bicycle going toward the tree where Inuyasha is sitting like usual.
'Inuyasha's Father is a Daiyokai. But Inuyasha is only Half… If one part is one thing, then his other half is… Human?' She thought in confusion before she realized she already arrive on the base of the tree. Inuyasha is seen watching the full moon, with annoyed look on his face. 'That's why!' Kagome then remember Yura's rude comment about how Inuyasha want to use the Shikon Jewel to become a Daiyokai. At first she thought it was because the thirst for power. Now she understand that what Inuyasha really want is to get close to his father by becoming as strong as him. 'Hanyo… But also Han-ningen too. That must be why he's always so… Because his mom is human… That's why he…' She then once again look toward Inuyasha. "Is that why he won't talk about it? His mom is human so he hated her?" She wondered while remembering her own interactions with her mother. Since Kagome's father died, Kagome decided to always keep her mom happy. But seeing Inuyasha is truly an opposite of her. "That's awful. How could someone hated their own mom? I pretty certain that she really loves him." Kagome later feel a gust of wind suddenly passing by. The cloud suddenly gets thicker.
It feels like something is coming this way.
Inuyasha immediately react fast. Jumping down from the tree, she later pin Kagome's head down, making it touch the dirt. "Get down!" He said.
Kagome later get her head up, revealing that her face is become dirtied with dirt. "Ugh… Inuyasha." She protested about Inuyasha's actions.
Inuyasha meanwhile ignores it and look toward the darkening sky seriously. "Something's coming. Can you feel it?" He asked.
Kagome later look toward what Inuyasha's seen. And on the center of the moon, there's seen something like horse carriage is flying. "A carriage?"
When look closer, the fabric that close the carriage that had many Kappa's on it is opened. And on the inside, a beautiful woman with long black hair and wearing pink kimono is seen with a sad look on her face. Her arm is seen being shackled by a chain.
"There's a lady riding in it." Kagome uttered.
Inuyasha then stand up.
"Inuyasha." Kagome called. But Inuyasha is walking with the intention of chasing the carriage. "What's wrong?"
"M-mother…" Inuyasha said in disbelief, making Kagome is confused hearing it.
The sky suddenly getting more thicker with clouds. The woman inside the carriage that's revealed to be Inuyasha's mother look at her son with relief. "It's you. Inuyasha!" She called.
Suddenly the shackles in her arms is tighten, making she yell in pain. "Ah!"
"Mother!" Inuyasha yelled in worry.
"It can be. Your mother's dead. You told me that yourself." Kagome remind Inuyasha, afraid that's some kind of Yokai that impersonate as his mother.
The carriage later move further to the sky. "Inuyasha!" She called while the army of Kappa is suddenly jump away from the carriage. "INUYASHA!"
Suddenly from the cloud, a giant hand suddenly appear and crush the carriage, leaving only Inuyasha's mother with the shackles that now constricting her body. The hand is later revealed to be a giant Oni with messy brown hair and red eyes. It later roar.
"Oh no! It's gonna hurt you mom!" Kagome said in worry.
"Oh he's not!" Inuyasha said before jumping toward the giant Oni. Suddenly, a flame is shooting from the Oni's shoulder toward Inuyasha. He actually can avoid it, but suddenly a spine-like tentacle is wrap around him while bringing him to the safety of the ground.
The one that shoot the fire is revealed to be a short Kappa that carried strange staff that have a woman and an old man's face on it. He's seen standing on the giant Oni's elbow. "Tch." He said, knowing that his aim is miss. "That damn tentacles make me miss my aim!"
Inuyasha later is being put gently on the ground, while the tentacles now aiming toward the Kappa, who shrieked.
"Nintojo!" Jaken later shoot streams of fire from his staff that hit the tentacles head-on, but it was undamaged.
Suddenly, a green Energy Whip is launch from nowhere and in some serious movement, cutting the tentacles into pieces. The tentacles later disappear mysteriously into red particles.
"A hardening of Youki. Could that mean-" The Kappa seems realized what's attacking him.
Inuyasha is quickly get up and yelled toward the Kappa. "Seems you're miss." 'Anyway's who's the owner of those tentacles?' Inuyasha then widen his eyes. "Could it be? The young female Ghoul that was taken care of by Kagome?"
True to what Inuyasha suspect, Hinami is seen few meters behind Kagome. Her face's showing exhaustion, meaning she's not fully healed yet. 'One act of Kagune and I already this exhausted. My strength still not back as it used to be…'
Kagome immediately recognize Hinami. "You! Why'd you come here? You still need to rest!"
"It's okay Kagome-san." Hinami assure her. "By the way, my name's Hinami."
"Hinami! Is dangerous in here! You shall go back to Kaede-baasan hut now!" Kagome said in worry, now address her with the name.
Back to the Kappa, he's still thinking what kind of being that almost attack him.
"So, there's that low-scum race of Yokai among them. Jaken." Someone that's revealed to be a young man with long white hair, crescent moon mark on his forehead, pointed ears, and wearing elaborate ancient Japanese clothing with chest armor and a single katana on his waist called the Kappa that now known as Jaken. He' seen standing on the giant Oni's right shoulder.
Jaken later look at him. "Yes." He replied.
"Once we've through, I want him dead." He ordered referring to Inuyasha.
Jaken later nod fearfully, knowing that the threat is not an empty one. "Y-yes."
Inuyasha immediately recognize who the man on the Oni's shoulder. "It's you. Sesshoumaru!" He yelled.
The one that now known as Sesshoumaru is unexpectedly smiled. "Indeed. I quite miss you as well. Little brother." He greet, revealing himself as Inuyasha's older brother.
Kagome is rather shock by the revelation. "He called you his brother. Does that mean he's-"
"But… The aura around him, is much different from Inuyasha-san…" Hinami uttered. 'His aura is full with killing intent. This aura even surpassing the one that Arima Kishou and Tatara-san had.' She thought in fear.
Sesshoumaru later narrow his eyes at Kagome. "Humph. First a Ghoul and now a mortal. How Interesting." He plainly commented.
"Yeah! What of it?" Kagome bravely replied.
"Other will be shame with the acquaintances you make Little Brother." Sesshoumaru said, ignoring Kagome completely. "The girl and the female Ghoul over there quite suits you."
'He's knowing it! But why!' Hinami now is in total fear. Someone that presumably stronger than the Ghoul's nightmare: CCG White Reaper is able to deduce her identity with just a glance.
The Oni's hand that hold Inuyasha's mother slowly crushing her.
"Uh…" She grunted in pain.
Sesshoumaru later look again toward Inuyasha. "These human creatures… I should think you had enough of them. Or is it a taste from father?" He asked with disdain.
Inuyasha later narrow his eyes and grit his teeth in anger. Ever since he was a little, he can't ever stand his older brother's attitude.
'So his mother is a human then!' Kagome thought, finally acknowledging the fact that Inuyasha's mother is a human.
Inuyasha later show his left claws, who later clench into fist. "That's not all is it? You couldn't come all this way just to tell me that!"
"Be not a fool. I've no such time to waste." Sesshoumaru replied. "The tomb of our father. Where must I seek it?"
Inuyasha didn't expect that Sesshoumaru ask him that. How could he think that he know the location? "Our father's tomb? Why ask me?" He yelled.
"Seeing yet never seen. Protected yet never known to its protector. No other clues that are known." Sesshoumaru said in a word that's hard to swallow.
"I got no idea what you're talking about! Besides even if I did, there's no way I'll tell you." Inuyasha replied while pointing his left index finger toward Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru narrow his eyes. "I see. Then you leave me no choice but to let your mother's suffering convince you." Creating the same Energy Whip he use to cut Hinami's Rinkaku to pieces, he swipe the giant Oni's neck with it, making it roar in pain and clench Inuyasha's mother tightly on its palm.
Inuyasha and Kagome are worried by this. But Hinami later close her eyes, before opening it and revealing her Kakugan. She then unleashing three Rinkaku tentacles and launch it toward the Oni with the intention of cutting its arm off. "Inuyasha-san! Kagome-san! Move Away!" She yelled. 'I don't know what the problem is. But I won't let something that's happening to me happen to the others while I watch it!'
"You're annoy me." Sesshoumaru said before sending an Energy Whip that later wrap on both of Hinami's Rinkaku, before using it to cut it into little pieces once more.
Jaken later look at Hinami with mocking look on his face. "Ha ha ha! Your pathetic low-race! You think you stand a chance against Sesshoumaru-sama is thousand years too early!" He mocked.
"I'm not done yet!" Hinami said while suddenly, a Rinkaku is appeared behind Sesshoumaru. It is revealed that Hinami's actually releasing three tentacles with one is dug into the ground to launch a surprise attack at Sesshoumaru.
Jaken is shock seeing it. 'T-that girl! She's actually manage to fool Lord Sesshoumaru and actually launch a surprise attack!' SESSHOUMARU-SAMAAAAA!" He yelled in worry.
Sesshoumaru meanwhile just glance at it before jump to avoid the attack and using his claws, ripped off the tentacles to pieces.
However, with both Sesshoumaru and Jaken being distracted, this is a moment that Inuyasha won't waste. "Thanks!" He then leap at his mother. "Sankon-tesso!" He then cut off the Oni's hand that hold his mother using his bare claws, making her fall to the ground.
The Oni later roaring in pain while Sesshoumaru is manage to land on it.
Kagome later run toward Inuyasha's mother. "Oh no! Are you okay?" She asked in worry to Inuyasha's mother who seemingly unconscious.
Inuyasha later look toward Kagome and Hinami. "Kagome! You take her and that young Ghoul! Get out of here!" He ordered.
Sesshoumaru narrow his eyes. He feels slightly anger because low-class races manage to trick him. "I think not." He later whipping his Energy Whip toward the Oni's face. "And you. You're worthless." He said cruelly.
Hinami just open her mouth, seeing such cruelty. Of course she already saw many Ghouls doing this. But seeing this, she can't talk too much.
The Oni later roaring in pain before using his other arm and tried to crush both Inuyasha's mother and Kagome.
Inuyasha immediately run toward them. "Mother!" He yelled.
Hinami also run toward them. 'I'll save you Kagome-san! I even not thank you yet!' She thought.
Inuyasha's mother later wake up and shock to seeing his son is going to be crushed by the giant arm.
"Ah!" Inuyasha is later being touch by the giant Ogre's arm, preventing him from crushing his mother and Kagome.
Kagome is shocked seeing it. Hinami's is finally arrive, kneel and touch Kagome's. "Kagome-san let's get out of here!" She said.
"No Hinami-chan! I won't go without Inuyasha!" Kagome didn't want to.
Inuyasha's mother suddenly put her palm together toward Inuyasha, releasing a blinding light that engulfs all four of them.
Due to the light, even Sesshoumaru protecting his eye using the sleeves of his clothes. Not long after, the light dies out and Inuyasha, his mother, Kagome, and Hinami are nowhere to be seen. "What a bother." He commented.
"Aye! Y-yet it go so well!" Jaken said while bowing to Sesshoumaru, shows that he's the one who coming up with the plan. "P-please leave it all to me Sesshoumaru-sama!"
Although look at him with no emotion shown on his face, Sesshoumaru clearly satisfied with the result. "This scheme of yours is beneath me. Should it fail Jaken…" He then slightly smiled. "You'll die." He said.
Jaken sweating in fear. He knows that Sesshoumaru does not like dirty tactics at all to get what he want. Even he's hard to convince him with this scheme. "AH!" He yelled in fear making he lost his balance and fall. "A-as y-you will M-My Lord!" He said in fear.
Sesshoumaru is later look toward the full moon. He's eager to see what his father's ultimate weapon look like.
