Chaos

 

Chapter 5

 

“What the hell?” Yusuke shouted as he finally pulled himself out of his shock.

 

Genkai, his teacher, was showing respect to someone. Yusuke sorted through his memories trying to remember a time when Genkai had ever bowed to anyone. He came up with a blank. Never had she ever shown such respect to anyone. Not even Koenma had this, and he was the prince of the Spirit world.

 

“Shut your trap, Dimwit!” Genkai snapped as she raised her body from the respectful bow.

 

“Please, Genkai, do not bow to me. I deserve no such respect.”

 

“Deserve! You deserve more than anyone the respect of all.”

 

Yusuke fixed his eyes on his old teacher. She somehow knew something about Kagome that he didn't. Yusuke had wondered since she had met her why she had so much respect from so many. She was obviously powerful, but that did not explain the reasons behind Akito's immediate action to any disrespect against Hiei's rudeness. That also didn't sum up the respectfulness and loyalty of Sesshomaru. Although they were adopted brother and sister that didn't fully explain his behavior. And what about Kuwabara? He, somehow, has a deep loyalty to Kagome after he meditated with her.

 

I wonder why? Yusuke thought. I'll have to ask him later about what she did to him.

 

“Genkai, you give me far to much credit.”

 

“How do you know about Kagome, Master Genkai?” Kuwabara asked in curiosity before she could reply back to Kagome.

 

“She-” Genkai was cut off by Kagome.

 

“So, you must be Yukina. Nice to meet you.” Kagome smiled at the ice demoness known as Yukina. The room seemed to brighten at her smile.

 

The ice demoness in front of her was short and slender. Her long blue hair was only outshined by her blood red eyes. Her red eyes showing to anyone with the knowledge that she was a pureblooded demoness. She wore all blue that accented her blue hair. She was short compared to everyone there. Well, besides, of course, Genkai.

 

“It is nice to meet you as well.”

 

“You are a ice demoness are you not?”

 

Yukina was stunned. A human female knew of demons? She even knew what type of demoness she was.

 

“Yes, I am.” Yukina said shyly. She didn't know how to act around this strange human.

 

Kagome seemed to realize Yukina's unease. “Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make you nervous.” Kagome laughed a little to make the mood lighten. Yukina was to tense around her for her tastes. Kagome was use to people being very content in her presence.

 

“Oh, no. I just didn't know that humans knew about demons.” Yukina replied.

 

She was already feeling comfortable in Kagome's presence with her good nature and calming aura. Something about this human made her feel safe and protected. That was a feeling she only felt around her closest friends that were in the room with her. She also felt protected by Hiei even though he was not in the room. She felt his presence as soon as he showed up in the courtyard. He left and she could no longer feel his demon energy, but she knew that he was not far off from his friends. He never was. Although, she did not know that he had come back from the Demon world.

 

“But Kagome lives in the Demon world.”

 

Yukina gasped. “What?”

 

“Kagome lives in the Demon world with her adopted brother.” Yusuke clarified.

 

“No, Sesshomaru is my real older brother. We did a blood bond that claims me as his little sister.”

 

“Lord Sesshomaru?” Genkai asked. I couldn't be him. He hates humans! He always has. There is no way that she would be under the care of Sesshomaru. Genkai thought to herself.

 

“You know him?” Kuwabara asked.

 

“Only by reputation. He was once the Demon lord of the West over five hundred years ago.” Genkai said in reply. I, however, did not know that he was still alive. He disappeared after the battle that this girl is so known for.

 

Kurama stilled. The memories of Youko Kurama, a spirit in his body, were surfacing into his minds eye. He could remember hearing tails of the Lord of the Western Lands and his half-brother. They were there before the barrier was put up to separate the four worlds. He could also recall frequently hearing stories of a group of humans, demons, and half-demon traveling around Japan. A human miko was a part of that group that searched after the…

 

Shikon Jewel! Kurama thought in wonder. The Jewel of Four Souls.

 

Understanding filled Kurama as he continued to pick his way through the memories of Youko. He looked at Kagome in a newfound respect after he had found all the memories that he could. If the stories were in fact true, then he was looking at a living legend. No wonder she had so much respect from Genkai. It must have taken her a few moments to realize who Kagome really was.

 

Kurama watched Kagome as she spoke with Genkai and Yukina. She would smile at something and then laugh at a joke that Yusuke or Kuwabara would randomly put in.

 

No wonder she has so much power. The jewel must be inside of her now. This also explains her calming aura. She has gone through so much.

 

“It was nice meeting you, Genkai, Yukina.” Kagome's raised voice pulled him from his thoughts. “But we must be going. We will drop by every no and then to let you make sure that they are alive. Hopefully this uprising will not take much longer.”

 

“I hope so as well. But thank you Kagome. That is very nice of you.”

 

“You must hurry though. The train leaves soon. You will have to run to catch it.” Yukina was not sure how they had gotten here, but she was sure that it was not the train. She was hoping that they would enlighten her on the subject. She hadn't had the time to ask them how they had gotten there.

 

“Oh, don't worry about that. We are not taking a train.”

 

Yukina tilted her head at Kagome in confusion.

 

“Come and see. Come on boys. We must be going if we are to be back by nightfall.”

 

Kagome walked out of the building and into the courtyard. Kuwabara, Yusuke, and Kurama followed closely behind her. Yukina and Genkai watched from the doorway.

 

The three males moved to circle Kagome. A space was left a little ways from Kagome on her left for their missing member.

 

“Hiei,” Kurama called out to his friend. Hiei flashed a little ways off to the side from Kagome.

 

~5~

 

Once the land was fully beneath their feet they noticed that Kagome had taken them to Keiko and Yusuke's house.

 

“How do you know where we live?” Yusuke asked. He had just assumed that she could find Genkai because of the last remaining power in her and Yukina's demonic powers. He couldn't figure out how she could find his home though. Keiko, his wife, didn't have any powers like them.

 

Kagome simply shrugged as she smiled. “I have found that after five hundred and thirty years of life you know a lot of things that you once didn't.

 

Yusuke became more annoyed. Why can't she just give a straight answer for once? She never answers our questions fully!

 

“Wow. You don't look older than seventeen or eighteen.”

 

“Why thank you for the compliment! You just don't see the wrinkles that are under my eyes. I hide them very well!” Kagome exclaimed as she joked with Kuwabara.

 

Kuwabara laughed a little with her. He still couldn't believe that she was that old but only looked seventeen. He really didn't know how to treat her. Should he treat her like an old woman or should he treat her like a teenager? Kuwabara simply decided to treat her how is instincts here telling him to; he could treat her as an older sister and dear friend.

 

“Yusuke?” a woman called out from the now open from door of the house. She had long dark brown hair and a small frame. Her dark lashes showed off her chocolate eyes as her dark blue clothes showed off her developed curves.

 

“Yusuke!” she shouted as she realized that it was in fact Yusuke in their front lawn. She ran to him and flung herself into his open arms.

 

“Keiko, are you feeling okay?” he asked as he kissed her on the lips before she could reply.

 

“I'm fine. Why have you been done so long? You left so early this morning. Is everything all right?” Keiko responded after their tender moment.

 

“Keiko, I have some bad news.”

 

Keiko looked behind him to see who was there to hear this. “Who is she?” she asked him as her eyes landed on Kagome. She had noticed that Hiei was back, but she hadn't known that he had come back.

 

“My name is Kagome. It is nice to meet you, Keiko.”

 

“You look familiar. Have we met before?”

 

“No, I don't think so. I think that I would remember someone who has better hair than I do. How do you get your hair to behave? Mine just won't go where I want it to.”

 

“Oh, I use a special shampoo and conditioner that lets it be flexible.” Keiko replied as if she didn't even remember what Yusuke said.

 

“Do you think that you could tell me later what it is?”

 

“Sure, I'd be happy too!”

 

“Thanks,” Kagome smiled again. With the conversation over with, Keiko turned back to look at Yusuke.

 

“What is wrong?”

 

“I have to leave for a while.”

 

~5~

 

“So, the Demon world is trying to go into the Human world, and you are going to train to defend us.” Keiko stated as if to confirm Yusuke's words.

 

“Yeah, that's the gist of it.”

 

Keiko looked down at her feet. She was sitting in her living room on the long couch that faced the television. All of them, with the exception of Hiei whom didn't follow them inside, were sitting in the living room. Keiko seemed to ponder on her thoughts for a few moments before she nodded as if she was confirming her own thoughts. She looked at her husband again.

 

“I love you, Yusuke. I will await your return.” she smiled then snorted unladylike. “At least you told me before hand unlike your usual.”

 

Yusuke smiled and kissed her again. He released her mouth. “I have to go pack.” Yusuke walked to the master bedroom and shut the door.

 

“Where are we going next, Kagome?”

 

“I think that we will go to Kuwabara's house next. Then we will go to yours Kurama. Then, we need to talk to Koenma next.”

 

“Why? What can he do?” Kuwabara asked curiously.

 

“I need information. He is not always reliable, but I need to know what he does know. It could help in the long run.”

 

Silence insured after her statement.

 

Keiko sat looking at them. She wasn't sure how they were getting to the Spirit world on their own, but she wasn't going to ask. She was, however, thinking about Kagome. She seemed familiar somehow.

 

Where have I seen her before? She seems familiar to me somehow. Keiko thought. She was confused on the identity of Kagome.

 

Kagome, Kagome, Kagome. Keiko repeated in her thoughts as if she repeated it again and again it would suddenly dawn on her.

 

Yusuke returned again with his duffel bag thrown over his shoulder. He walked back over to his wife as she stood to see them off.

 

“I'll come visit as soon as I get time off. Maybe I can get Kagome to transport me over every few days.”

 

“I'd be happy too!” Kagome exclaimed.

 

“Why can't you stay here and see if Kagome can pick you up every morning.”

 

“I'm sorry, Keiko, but they will be to tired to do anything but pass out after they are finished their after noon practices.”

 

Keiko nodded. She could understand her logic.

 

“Don't stress yourself. You don't want to hurt the baby.”

 

“Congratulations!” exclaimed Kagome. “Is it a boy or girl?”

 

“We don't know just yet. We want it to be a surprise.”

 

Kuwabara gaped at Yusuke and Keiko. Kurama held his cool, collected façade.

 

Kuwabara mumbled a congratulation to the happy couple.

 

“Congratulations! When did you find out?” Kurama asked.

 

“A few weeks ago,” Keiko said as she smiled. She rubbed her stomach lovingly.

 

“Come on let's go.” Yusuke rumbled out in impatience.

 

Kagome nodded. She made her way out the living room and out the front door. They all followed her out. Keiko stood on the edge of the path walk. Kagome looked around her to see the neighborhood empty.

 

“Is everyone ready?” Kagome asked as Hiei showed up next to her. At the nods that followed she raised her power and her arms.

 

Just before they disappeared, Keiko suddenly remembered where she had heard of `Kagome'.

 

“Kagome Higurashi!” she said out loud in surprise.

 

They disappeared before her eyes. She didn't see any light or anything. They just disappeared before her eyes. However, just before they disappeared, Kagome softly smiled at Keiko.

 

~5~

 

“Shuiichi!”

 

“Hello, Mother!”

 

“Where have you been? I haven't called in over three days. Is something wrong?”

 

“No, nothing is wrong. I just have to go help some friends for a while. I will not be back in a while.”

 

“Do you need anything?”

 

“No, I just wanted to tell you that I might not be back for a while, but I hope to visit occasionally.”

 

The group stood behind him as he confronted his mother. They had just come from Kuwabara's house. Kagome and Shizuru had fit it off. They got along as if they were sisters that had known each other their entire life. The first thing out of Shizuru's mouth was if he had lost a fight. Kagome had immediately laughed to the point of tears. She had liked her at that moment. Shizuru listened to them with great patience as she smoked a cigarette.

 

“So, that is what I have been feeling for the past few weeks?” she had commented at one point. She had later explained that she had felt a great foreboding. She sensed danger ahead, but it seemed far away as if it was in another land. This was in part true for the danger that she felt was taking place in the Demon world. She had said farewell to them as she yelled at Kuwabara to not lose a fight or she would come beat the shit out of him in the Demon world. Kuwabara took her threat to heart. He of all knew that she would follow up on that threat.

 

Kagome watched as Kurama tried to comfort his mother about his health. She was fighting back a fit of laughter when she asked him if he was going to introduce his girlfriend to her. She had long noticed Kagome behind him. Apparently, she had wanted him to get a girlfriend after so many years of turning them down. She had immediately thought that Kagome was the girlfriend that he was going to introduce to her at long last.

 

He was trying to hard to only lie to her as little as possible. He shot behind him a look of pleading from anyone. He was in a bit of a bind here. Yusuke and Kuwabara were all ready on the ground laughing their asses off. Hiei simply stood back with indifference on his face. It appeared as if he thought that the fox could suffer.

 

Kagome finally took pity on him. She walked forward with her head held high. Her green dress swaying with her curved body.

 

“Hi, I am Kagome. I am so happy to have finally met you. Shuiichi talks about you so much that I feel like I all ready know you!”

 

“Hi, it is nice to meet you. Shuiichi, why didn't you introduce me to your girlfriend before? You know that I want to meet every young lady in your life.”

 

Kurama opened his mouth to speak, but Kagome beat him to it.

 

“Oh, I told him that I wanted to tell you. He has been so nervous about your opinion of me. He didn't want to disappoint you.”

 

“Oh, Shuiichi! I could never be disappointed in you!” She pulled Kurama into her embrace. She was so happy that she started to cry.

 

“Mother, are you all right?”

 

“I am so happy! Kagome is so beautiful and exquisite! Don't you hurt her, dear.”

 

“So you approve?”

 

“Oh course! I can't be more happy!”

 

“You son is very special to have you as a mother.”

 

“Oh, thank you, dear. And please call me mom.” she said.

 

Kagome nodded as she put her hands around Kurama's waist. She smiled at her new `mom'.

 

How do I get myself into these finds of situations? Kagome thought as she made small talk with Kurama's mom. Man, I am never going to hear the end of this. He will never let this down. Stupid Sesshomaru and his stupid sense of smell. I still have to explain why I had to use my powers. This had better be worth it!
