LAST TIME:

“Seven shards, wow…you must really want that kiss.” Kuronue smiled and Kagome kissed him. Youko pouted even more. Kurama's eye twitched. Now both Youkos were pouting. Yusuke stopped arguing with Botan.

“What the HELL are you doing?” he yelled, tackling Kuronue. All of the other's sweatdropped.

/Maybe it's a good thing, I wasn't the one kissing her/ Youko said.

I agree Kurama replied.

CHAPTER FIVE: Tidings of War

Yusuke grumbled and rubbed his head. Boton and Kagome pointedly ignored him. Boton had hit him on the head with her oar, and Kagome had hit him on the head with Miroku's staff, at the same time.

Kuronue and Youko were both keeping their distance from Yusuke. Miroku was keeping distance from all the girls, for much the same reason. Plus, Kagome still had his staff.

Shippo jumped up on Kagome's shoulder and whispered in her ear. She sighed.

“I know,” she told him.

“Know what?” Yusuke asked.

“We're being followed. I'm surprised you didn't notice,” Kagome told him. Yusuke blinked in confusion. He had yet to sense the presence of anyone other than those in the group. Hiei, Kurama, and Kuwabara apparently hadn't noticed anyone. Kagome smacked her cheek. When she removed her hand a black speck floated to the ground.

“Myoga the Flea,” Kagome said, “Why have you been following us? Last time I saw you, you were with Totosai.”

“That thing was following us? It barely has any spirit energy!” Yusuke exclaimed, staring at the bug.

“Well of course not,” the little bug said, “I wouldn't be very good at gathering information if I was easy to find.”

“Also helps when you run away like a coward,” Kagome said.

“Lady Kagome!” Myoga scolded, “Is that any way to treat a friend?”

“Friend? When we left you with Totosai, you were InuYasha's little stooge, correct?” Kagome asked.

“Well, yes, but that was before Sesshomaru-sama told me what happened. I assure you, Lady Kagome, if InuYasha's father, InuTaisho-sama was still alive, he'd beat the boy for doing such a thing, not to mention his terrible manners.”

“Sounds like my kinda guy,” Yusuke said, grinning.

“Oh my, speaking of terrible manners. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Myoga the Flea.”

“Urameshi Yusuke,” Yusuke answered.

“Kuwabara Kazuma.”

“Hiei.”

“Kurama.” The red-head ignored the curious look Youko sent him. Kagome shook Myoga to get his attention.

“You still haven't answered my question. Why were you following us?”

“I was sent by Sesshomaru-sama to collect you the minute you came through the well.”

“Hmm? How come?”

“Sesshomaru-sama needs your help to prevent a war between the Demon Lord of the North and Sesshomaru-sama.”

“War?” Kagome asked, alarmed. “Why would the Demon Lord of the North declare war? I thought he and Sesshomaru were allied!”

“They are, however InuYasha's recent actions have caused strife between them. The Demon Lord of the North believes that Sesshomaru-sama should have been in better control of his younger brother.”

“Point me in the direction of this Demon Lord,” Kagome said, “and I'll be more than happy to purify him.”

“No, Lady Kagome, we want to prevent the war, not start it,” Myoga said, “Besides, the Demon Lord of the North is the father of Kouga-sama. He is only doing this because Kouga has claimed you as his woman.”

“HE WHAT!” Yusuke yelled.

“Gee, thanks Myoga,” Kagome said sarcastically.

“Terribly sorry,” Myoga said. Kagome flicked him away.
