!Chapter 6!

Kagome turned around to gaze at the room. It was very gorgeous, and if she didn't feel so awkward she'd enjoy this room. She just wasn't used to the way she was being treated, and she had a feeling that this was only the beginning of it all.

“What are you frozen?” Inuyasha said from the large red doors that connected to his room. Indeed Kagome had come into the room and froze. She was still thinking. “What a dead give away!”

“What are you talking about?” Kagome asked not understanding what he was talking about. Inuyasha there staring at the large red French doors.

“The color I mean. If it was somebody's first time coming here and saw this doors they'd automatically know where it led to.” Inuyasha said as he turned back to Kagome. He was right, as soon as she saw the doors she knew where they'd led to.

“Oh.” Kagome looked down at her feet and shuffled them not sure of what to do with the room. `Damn it! Why'd it have to be so damn luxurious?! Now I'm making a fool of myself!'

Inuyasha just sat down on the large pink puffy chair. The room was made to match Inuyasha's, but to a girls touch. Naturally pink would be a better choice seeing as his room was red. As for the fluffiness, he could only guess for comfort. `Which is really working by the way.'

“Come here Kagome” Inuyasha held his arms out to her. Kagome was shocked at his attitude change. It was as if ever since Sesshomaru did whatever he did to Inuyasha his attitude seemed to act more…more like Sesshomaru's.

Inuyasha watched in amusement at the way Kagome was acting, but who could blame, he was changing rapidly, and there was nothing he could do to stop it. That was the reason why he had to explain to Kagome.

“Are you gonna come? Or are you gonna stand there?” Inuyasha asked. He smirked as Kagome walked over to him and sat on his lap and rest her head against his chest.

Kagome knew something was up. With what Sesshomaru did, and the way he was acting, it was a little fast. Somehow even through all of that Kagome knew when something was bothering Inuyasha. “What is Yashi?”

Inuyasha blinked at the name, but he didn't mind her giving him the name. “Kagome I know everything is changing, and I wanted to explain it to you.” Kagome nodded, and saw that as a sign to continue.

“Well lets start back when we were in the forest. What Sesshomaru was referring to was the people of the Western Lands when he was speaking to me.”

“I don't understand.” Kagome said as her eyebrows furrowed.

“Well if you would let me finish!” Inuyasha saw her glare him, and he gave her one back. Instantly Kagome seemed to shut up and listen. `His glares are a hella lot colder then what they usually are.' “Anyways. Even though I'm royalty by blood, I'm also Hanyou by blood, which means no respect what so ever.”

“That's retarded.” Kagome was angry to hear this.

“It's the way of the demons, even humans at times.” He stared at her wishing she'd be quiet long enough se he could finish explaining to her. “Anyways.The only I'd get respect around here is if I had the family crest. It shows my place, and it demands respect. Demons have no choice but to follow, or else they will be….killed.”

Kagome stared up at him. She hated for people to die, demon or not, then again she understood.

“Is that where that blue light came from?” Kagome had saw that light all too clearly, and it was sort of hard to miss.

“Yes Kagome. The thing is, all family crest are designed to make you seem a bit more royal, that's what's with my attitude change.” Kagome had started to giggle, which caused him to raise an eyebrow. “What's so funny?”

“So…the crest is supposed…to make you…more…civilized?” Kagome had said between giggles. ”That's impossible!”

Inuyasha smirked knowing that it was very well true, nobody can succeed in making Inuyasha act like he has some since, not even Kagome.

“It's not going to completely change me, only about 15 of me. You see, it can make me act more royal at times in need. Also the way I've changed ever since I got is the farthest it can really go.” Kagome began to understand what he was saying. `Therefore in front of people he does not trust he puts on a mask, and in front of people he does trust, he can be himself.' Kagome nodded in understanding.

“Good. Kagome, Sesshomaru and I would like you to dress in one of the Kimonos that are in the closet.” Kagome looked at him like he was put of his mind.

“You don't like the way I dress?” Kagome felt anger begin to bubble up inside her.

“Of course I do, but it's the feudal era, and that skirt you wear is a little short.” Kagome felt her anger melting away as she understood his reasoning. “Besides, I have to change into something more to that stupid ass “lords” liking.” Inuyasha rolled his eyes. `Obviously he hasn't changed much at all.'

With that Inuyasha had lifted her off his lap, slightly surprising Kagome as he set her on her feet. He kissed gently before walking in his room, leaving a smiling Kagome behind.

`He's still a whole lot bolder than what he used to be.'

Kagome had finished changing. She wore and pink kimono with small flowers on them. The base of the sleeves were white, as well as her collar, and the bottom of the kimono. She decided to roam the room for a bit. The room had high ceilings, with three doors in the room, not including Inuyasha's door, and the main door. One door which was lightly painted pink was open, and it led to the bathroom that had purple walls. Inside the bathroom were the usual sliding paper doors. She could feel the heat radiating from the door and felt herself getting excited. `No way! It couldn't be! There was no way! No way, that he'd have a hot spring in my bathroom! But then again the don't have bath tubs in this era.'

Kagome slid the doors open and felt as the heat went over her whole body. Then her eyes widened in shock. There it was this giant hot spring, and in the distance she could hear her friends. She began to walk towards the voices.

In the water were Miroku, Kouga, Ayame, Sango, Kirara, and Shippo bathing in one of the many hot spring areas.

“Hey Kagome!” Shippo shouted as he turned his head to look at her. He began moving toward her, but turned red before going deeper into the water. Kagome couldn't help but giggle.

Kouga tried to keep his eyes away from Kagome as he could smell Inuysha's new “royalty” scent on her. She was considered his play mate for now, since she wasn't fully taken. Usually he would be commenting on how her new kimono looked, but it would be considered flirting, and he could be severely punished for it. Messing around with royalty was a serious thing, and Kagome was one step away from it.

“You look very beautiful Kagome.” Ayame said smiling and giving Kagome the thumbs up. That action caused Kagome to giggle.

“Yea Kagome! You like very nice.” Sango said with a smile of her own.

“Thanks guys! I'll be leaving since it's hot in here, especially with this Kimono on.” Kagome turned to leave and was in the cool room once again.

Kagome decided to look around the desk. In the drawer she found a pad of paper, and something to draw with. She took the time to sit on the little cushions on her balcony and began to draw.

When she was finished with the drawing it was a picture of Inuyasha with his smirk on his face. In his arms you could see black hair, and a deep chocolate brown eye, indicating that it was somebody's face.

Kagome heard a door open, and saw Inuyasha walk in the room with a white outfit similar to his old. His pants were of the same type except at the bottom of his pants was a red flame that went around his ankles. His haori was also white. You could see the red on the inside, and just like Sesshomaru's there was the same design that was on his pants are on the top of his shoulders and the tips of his sleeves.

“Come Kagome.” Inuyasha then turned to leave. Kagome instantly knew something was up, and hurried to follow her love out into the hall.

Kagome followed Inuyasha down the spiraling stairs and down a hall that she had noticed as soon as she entered the palace. It was the hall with many panicking people wandering in it. `I wonder what's up?' Kagome asked herself. They kept walking until the stopped in front of large, thick, silver, metal, double doors. On the front two blur crescents were engraved on it. Kagome wasn't surprised on bit to see that.

Inuyasha turned to look at Kagome and then he spoke. “When we go inside you are sit next to me. You are not to sit until I am seated, and you are not to speak unless spoken to. You have to address me and Sesshomaru as lord when or if you speak. Understood?”

Inuyasha sounded cold, but his spoke other wise. His amber eyes were pleading for her to understand, and she nodded. Inuyasha then turned to the doors and pushed them open.

The room was very wide, but she could tell that it was made so nobody on the outside were to hear what was being spoken of. Inuyasha took a seat next to Sesshomaru and Kagome followed. The men in the room gave off extremely powerful aura's. They all pretty much matched Sesshomaru's. A couple were strong, but still weaker than Inuyasha. Usually Kagome would feel inferior, but her miko powers have extremely increased, and how pure she was probably made the demons uneasy.

All became silent and one of the demons began to speak, but not of what Kagome thought was what they originally came here to speak of.

“Lord Sesshomaru why is there a human here at the Western palace along with your hanyou brother?” Asked the demon who although Kagome was sure she had never seen one knew that he was a snake demon. One thing that gave it away was his tongue and the way he struggled not hold out his s's. Kagome made eye contact with him, but looked as if she was unfazed by his question.

Inuyasha was about to jump out of his chair and lash out at the demon, but his crest soothed him. Inuyasha gave the demon an almost evil smirk. Sesshomaru looked as if he were trying to avoid the smirk that tugged at his lips.

“I would not question a demon that is far stronger than you are. Hanyou or not, don't you agree Lord Noriko?” Sesshomaru said. The demon known as Lord Noriko smirked.

“Indeed, but that does not explain the human. Care to explain Lord Inuyasha?”

“You don't seem to be able to tell the difference between a simple human and a miko Lord Noriko of the South.” Inuyasha obviously mocked the lord of the south, which happened to be one of the more weaker areas of the land. This action caused Sesshomaru and the other demons to smirk, one even laughed at bit.

Lord Noriko seemed shocked as he looked at Kagome. Then for a third of a second his eyes shown fear. Kagome remained silent, but so many questions were through her mind. She really wanted to know who these demons were.

“Kagome you are not familiar with these demons am I correct?” Sesshomaru asked Kagome. Kagome blinked a couple times before answering.

“I don't believe so Lord Sesshomaru.” `Man that felt weird.' Kagome inwardly laughed at how funny it sounded, but at the same time it fit.

“This here is Lord Noriko of the South, as I'm sure you already know.” Lord Noriko was a handsome demon. He has blood red eyes, with burgundy slits in the middle of each of them. He also has dark green waist length hair held into a high ponytail. He wore a lot of black and dark green. His eyes were always open, he never seemed to blink.

“Next to him is Lord Wakana of the East.” He was handsome as well. Lord Wakana had shoulder length, bright, golden hair with beautiful emerald eyes. Those features only made Kagome believe that he was a lion demon. He wore a lot of reds and oranges. ` He must love to stand out.' Kagome couldn't help but feel some what attracted to these demons. She really couldn't help it they were just so damn sexy!`Whatis it with demons being overly handsome?' Kagome thought to herself.

“And lastly is Mistress Emi of the North.” Kagome was shocked to see a woman taking the role of a leader. `Ha! In your face you stinking men!' She noticed that Mistress Emi was far more stronger than Lord Sesshomaru. She had fiery red hair that was in a low ponytail that reached to heel of her feet. `How does she hold it all up?' If she let it out now doubt it would touch the ground. Her eyes were the darkest obsidian that Kagome had ever seen, but for some reason you could see pure kindness in those dark eyes. Kagome could only guess that she was an element demon. She chose to wear dark blue's and purple's. She holds the most oddest beauty, but it was the most beautiful beauty that she's seen in her entire life. Kagome couldn't help but feel inferior to the woman, she was just so beautiful.

“It is a pleasure to meet you Kagome.” Emi said as she smiled. Kagome couldn't help but smile back.

“It is a pleasure to meet as well Mistress Emi.” Kagome watched as Emi nodded and then her facial features turned serious.

“Lord Sesshomaru. The Band of Seven has been seen lurking around our lands, and we are certain that yours will be next.” Kagome nearly choked at hearing the Band of Seven were alive once again. She wasn't even sure how, she had the complete jewel in her possession, it was nearly impossible unless they were made up of graveyard soil.

“Yes I have noticed something unusual lurking around my lands. The smell was not of soil but of human flesh. I wonder how this could have happened.” Honestly he had no idea what could have caused this action. He knew that the completed jewel was around the miko's neck at this very moment.

“Also Lord Sesshomaru.” Mistress Emi continued. “Bankotsu's power was enough to rival my own. I already have foolish demons challenging me as if I am not strong enough to lead them.” This shocked everybody in the room. `Could Bankotsu really be that powerful without Jewel Shards?' It was nearly impossible, but you should always believe in the unbelievable.

“Also I've seemed to notice a demon aura coming from Bankotsu and not just the halberd.” Lord Wakana added. “I have also come across Suikotsu who has also come across a demon aura.”

“Do you think a demon might have thought of devouring there corpses only to have it back fire on them?” Lord Noriko asked.

“It has happened before, except we were dealing with weaker demons and humans. Since that is the most reasonable answer we'll leave it.” Sesshomaru said.

“They are attacking every village they come in contact with. They managed to destroy half of my lands. Demon villages included.” Lord Wakana stated.

“Yes all but a forth of the south are in ruins.” Lord Noriko said with solemn.

“They have been able to attack a forth of my lands seeing as I have many traps set in the north. Genkotsu happened to have gotten caught in one which is the reason why they are a bit slower, But seeing as they are demons now it couldn't have been much of a difference.” Mistress Emi said.

“Who else have you managed to get?” Sesshomaru asked.

“Just Mukotsu.” Lord Noriko asked. Which made complete since seeing as half the people in the south are immune to all poisons. That's only because the South is the home of all snake type demon.

“That's an advantage, but they seem to still have the stronger ones with them.” Inuyasha said.

“That's right Lord Inuyasha you have gone up against about all them correct?” Lord Noriko asked.

“All except Kyokotsu. Kouga took care of him while we were having problems with Mukotsu.” Inuyasha said.

“Hmmm. We need to get rid of that giant first though. He alone could stomp a full village with his own two feet.” Lord Wakana said. Soon everybody was trying to think of a plan but since none of them knew his weaknesses it wasn't really going anywhere.

“Well miko do you think you know any weaknesses of Kyokotsu? I don't see you coming up with anything.” Lord Noriko asked.

“I myself have never gone up against him. Maybe you could ask Kouga if he could recall some of those weaknesses to you.” Everybody seemed to be relieved at how much sense her suggestion made. `Are they serious? I mean it was obvious as soon as Inuyasha said Kouga right? Maybe they're just stressed about the situation at the moment. Surely the four lords had more common sense than that.'

“Well that settles it.” Sesshomaru spoke u. “Jaken.” Within minutes you could hear tiny steps running towards the door. They all seemed to have the same thing on there mind. `Exactly how in the world was Jaken able to hear those soft spoken words?' The doors swung open as Jaken strode in trying to look more powerful than what he really was, but only succeeding in doing the exact opposite. We he came to Kagome he stopped and looked at her in disbelief.

“Lord Sesshomaru surely you wouldn't let a mere human in here would you?” Jaken asked. Lord Wakana chuckled, he was no better than Lord Noriko.

“She is here is she not Jaken? Surely you wouldn't question me?” Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow at Jaken fully showing his amusement in the whole situation. Kagome on the other hand already had a deep hate for the toad, and was about ready to flatten him, but refrained from doing so.

“Of course not M'lord. How can I be of assistance?” Jaken asked.

“Go get the Ookami Prince. His assistance is needed here.” Sesshomaru said before he waved Jaken off. Jaken gave Kagome one last look of disgust before he ran to get the Ookami Prince. A couple of minutes later Kouga strode into the room with brown slightly fuzzy hakamas, while his haori was white and tight on his chest. There was a black vine that wrapped around his right pant leg, and also there was this outstandingly unique design on the shirt. There seemed to be a the flower that Ayame often has on the left side of the haori with vines swirling around the stem. It also showed as if the vines perished as it hit to petals of the petals giving it this beautiful but deadly look. His hair happened to have been down, and his eyes were a little more icy than usual. `He must have been resting when Jaken dragged him down here.'

“Have a seat.” Sesshomaru said. Kouga quickly scanned the room before the sitting next to Kagome. The only other seat was next to Lord Wakana, and she assumed that Kagome didn't quite know Lord Wakana and sat with her.

“Prince Kouga.” Mistress Emi started. “Could you be so kind in stating the weaknesses of Kyokotsu for us?” Kouga was shocked but complied with her wishes.

“Well, the first thing I noticed was that he's a lot slower than any of the others, and me a speed type demon was the best candidate for the advantage.” Kouga had paused momentarily as if thinking about something before narrowing his eyes. “I have no problem with giving this information, but what for? He's dead right.”

“They are alive again Prince. This time in a demon state.” Lord Wakana said. “I'll tell you the rest some other time Prince, right now we need this information.”

“Of course my Lord.” Kouga didn't like it, but him being from the East he had to obey his Lord. “ Well like I said he's slow, and him being a demon doesn't make much of a difference. Also he only uses his fists when he's actually sure it's needed, which makes it pretty much an open attack for his face. Last he either uses his fists or his legs, never both. Which makes one of the most easiest opponents I've ever faced.” Kouga shrugged as he finished.

“That makes him rather pathetic.” Lord Wakana said. “His only advantage is his strength and height. That was the perfect opponent for an East side demon. It only made sense.”

“Then I'll leave Kyokotsu to the East side. Now Inuyasha what about the rest?” Sesshomaru asked. “Let us start with Suikotsu.

“Ummm. Well Suikotsu has some …problems.” Inuyasha stated knowing that Kagome would be better at explaining then he. “Why don't you talk to Kagome at this one.”

“Very well. Kagome?” Sesshomaru rolled his eyes at his brother, but at least he was getting some information from some one.

“Well… Suikotsu seems to switch from a kind and caring man to a ruthless killer. He seems to have a soft spot for me and Kikyo I might add.” Kagome struggled to remember seeing as she didn't get to fight with Suikotsu much. “His main attacks has to so with the bladed claws that he has. He can move those around quickly, your best way is to hit from far off. If you're a close range fighter aim low, then when he's down strike him near the heart.”

“Then you would probably be more sufficient for that job.” Sesshomaru said. “ Now what about Renkotsu?”

“Renkotsu produces fire. He also carries around a cannon. He's more of a far range attacker, and if you have something cold to take out those flames then you have a better chance at beating him.” Inuyasha said.

“Then that would most likely be a north type opponent.” Mistress Emi said. “What of Jakotsu?”

“Well. Jakotsu's weakness would be any good looking man seeing as he's gay. Also his sword can go a far length, so he is a difficult opponent. The best bet is to get that sword out of his hand. So most likely have something distract him while somebody gets the sword out of the way.” Inuyasha answered.

“And finally Bankotsu.” Lord Noriko said.

“Bankotsu is arrogant and cocky. But also had amazing strength and powerful attacks. The halberd has his most powerful attacks, but he could break just about all of your bones without it. Honestly his biggest weakness is his ego. I honestly think I killed him by luck, now that he's a demon he's much worse.” Inuyasha said.

Nobody liked that answer, but it was to be expected. Bankotsu although was the youngest he was the leader for a reason. There was almost no way to kill besides hopefully tiring him out, which was highly unlikely with his boost of stamina. It would probably take a mixture of people to take him down. The reason he died in the first place was the sky being covered with arrows.

BOOM!

Sesshomaru turned to look at the large window behind him to see that his palace walls were being bombarded with Kyokotsu himself. Following him was Bankotsu, Jakotsu, Renkotsu, and Suikotsu.

Inuyasha was the first to react. He pulled out Tetsuiga, and turned his head to look at Kagome who seemed to look pissed at the fact the she didn't have her bow and arrows. Mistress Emi handed Kagome a bow and some arrows from what seemed out of nowhere. Kagome took the bow and quiver filled with arrows and nodded towards Mistress Emi in silent thanks.

The demons and Kagome made there way down the hall and out of the front door. They weren't all that worried seeing as Sesshomaru had the most skillful demons out of all the lands. They met up with Sango, Miroku, Ginta, Hakkaku, Shippo, and Ayame. They noticed that the girls were both in Yukata's which meant that didn't have time change. Which was to be expected seeing as nobody expected the attack so soon in the first place.

“What's going on?” Sango asked.

“Bankotsu.” Was all Inuyasha said as they headed towards the broken wall. Once they got there they noticed that they of course were loosing. None of the demons could take down the group of mercenaries. Bankotsu was sitting in the middle of the battle field watching with extreme boredom as Jakotsu took out most of the people with his sword. Leaving just enough people for Suikotsu and Renkotsu to take out on opposite sides.

“Inuyasha!” Jakotsu cheered. Inuyasha mumbled something about stupid gays and there overly cheerful voices. Jakotsu was just about to go attack Inuyasha when Bankotsu cut in.

“Stay Jakotsu.” Bankotsu said as he turned to Inuyasha. “Hey dog boy! I've been looking for ya buddy!” Inuyasha again mumbled something about stupid mercenaries and their ability to turn even the worst fights into a friendly moment.

“Excuse me?” was all Inuyasha asked.

“When I say I've been looking all over for ya then just ask those Lords behind you.” Bankotsu obviously was referring to Lords Noriko and Wakana. Seeing as Mistress Emi was over towards his right with Kagome and Sesshomaru was on his left side. Lord Noriko gave a small hiss at the statement.

“So I've heard. Cut the crap Bankotsu what do you want?” Inuyasha asked. He was never particularly a patient guy, even Bankotsu knew that.

“You know patience is a virtue.” Bankotsu said as he finally stood up. He took the purple cover off his halberd before regarding towards Inuyasha once again. “I have…a problem. Do you mind if we discuss this inside? Surely you know what I speak of.” Bankotsu nodded towards his halberd which seemed to be going haywire in color. It kept shifting to all the colors of the rainbow and more. Kagome could since a demon aura, but also one that was extremely off. Kagome cocked her head to the side. `That aura is almost one of a priestess. It is pure. Well not overly pure, it doesn't beat a priestess, since it does have a demon aura as well, but how could the halberd be holding a pure aura? This doesn't make any sense.'

Lord Noriko and Lord Wakana peered at the Halberd in a look of horror, disbelief, and confusion. Mistress Emi had a look of curiousness, and Sesshomaru just looked frustrated and furiated for all but a second before going back to his normal look. Sesshomaru nodded before turning around.

“Follow me.” He said as he began to walk away before a voice stopped him.

“Surely you aren't going to let a group of mercenaries into the palace Lord Sesshomaru?” Lord Noriko asked.

“Yes I am. Surely you are not questioning me?” Sesshomaru asked as he continued walking. Lord Noriko didn't like his answer but was smart enough to keep his mouth shut. `That guy has a big mouth for somebody who is supposed to be the weakest out of the bunch.'

They all went back into the palace as some demons came out to fix the damage. Kagome noticed that Sesshomaru had a different variety of demons there in the west. There were even demons that she couldn't recognize, but they would be different colors. One demoness looked at her and she looked so innocent Kagome couldn't help but smile. The girls hair then changed to a warm golden almost orange color as she smiled back. Then she saw Renkotsu and her hair changed to a red color. Mistress Emi seemed to understand Kagome's confusion so she spoke to her.

“You have never seen an emotion demon before?” Emi asked Kagome.

“I have heard of them, but was told that they rarely even stay away from there village.” Kagome answered.

“Yes you are right, but if you ever happen to come up to the North there are plenty of emotion and element demons there.” Emi stated. “They are extraordinary creatures.”

“Element demons as well?” Kagome asked. “You mean like fire, water, and ice?”

“Yes you should named the three most common ones.” Emi stated. “The most rare ones are air since other demons thought that they should be dead and rather alive. They are what you would call an endangered species.”

“I see. I'm guessing the North is a very effective area. The demons there seem to be very rare, therefore most people who attack there never really expecting it.” Kagome said.

“Mostly yes. They are effective, but the North does not get attacked very much. We were at peace with every demon ever since Naraku was killed.” Emi said.

“I see. Hoe can you tell the difference between the different types of demons?” Kagome asked. She was truly interested in the emotion demons.

“Well the element demons naturally take on the look of there element.” Emi stated.

“I don't understand.” Kagome admitted.

“Well an ice demon would be more pale than most demons, a water demon would either have blue hair and blue eyes, are it is able to go translucent and back.” Emi said.

“I see, so are you a fire demon then?” Kagome asked. Emi smiled at her observation.

“Yes I am.” Emi said.

“What about emotion demons?” Kagome asked.

“Well emotion demons usually have something change in there appearance when there emotions change.” Emi said.

“Like that girl and her hair.” Kagome more stated than asked.

“Yes like that girl and her hair.” Emi started. “Although most people does not like it when the changing object ends up being hair.”

“I understand that. When your changes so often then it's a dead give away.” Kagome agreed.

“Yes that it right. Although the change colors the emotion demons are particularly strong and strange demons. Many thought they went extinct, but they were all hiding up in the west. Now they are trying to rebuild there population.” Emi said.

“I see. Well they all seem very interesting. I would love to go up to the North it seems so lovely.” Kagome said. Emi smiled at Kagome. She could tell that Kagome was kind and gave every creature a chance before down grading them.

“I think most would love you up there as well. The demons there need kind people to show them that not everything is evil.” Emi said before they suddenly stopped.

“Does anybody even have an idea about what is going on with that halberd of his?” Sesshomaru asked.

“The halberd has a name. Its name is Banryuu.” Bankotsu said clearly insulted for his halberd. Inuyasha snorted and rolled his eyes.

“A blade is a blade whether it has a name or not.” Inuyasha said.

“Your sword has a name as well, and you prefer to call it by its name don't you?” Bankotsu asked.

“Feh. Whatever.” Inuyasha didn't feel like arguing with Bankotsu at the moment.

“Does anybody know what is wrong with that halberd or not?” Sesshomaru asked. Bankotsu glared at Sesshomaru but said nothing as he waited the answer.

Nobody answered.

…

“Maybe we could ask Totosai.” Kagome suggested. Once again everybody look relieved. `Come on now Inuyasha surely you thought about him!' Lord Noriko was a little suspicious of the girl, she seemed to have every answer to all the questions. Although Totosai was one of the best answers in a situation like this so it really did not matter. The priestess however was fascinating, and he wondered how the hanyou got his hands on her.

At first he was even trying to look for her aura since she was human he had tuned it out, that was something he learned to do at a young age. But now since he is no longer doing that he could tell that the girl was extremely powerful whether she knew it or not.

He would have to get his hands on her, since she was not marked she out for the taking and he was not the only one with eyes for her. The Ookami prince was giving her looks, but Inuyasha was well aware of those, and Noriko could see the looks that Kouga were receiving. Noriko was almost positive that he wouldn't be able to even touch her, and that by tomorrow morning that girl would have a mark on her neck. In fact he would bet everything he owned on that.

“Yes, we shall go see Totosai tomorrow morning.” Sesshomaru stated. “Bankotsu.”

“Ya?” Bankotsu answered Kagome knew that guy needed some manners.

“You shall stay in the palace, and rooms will be given to you. You shall not leave those rooms unless you go to the bath house. Understood?” Sesshomaru pretty much ordered. Bankotsu didn't like to be ordered around, but he had to follow his rules or else he'd never find out what the hell was going on with Banryuu.

“Crystal.” He said. Sesshomaru nodded before walking off. The emotion demon that they had passed a couple of hallways down appeared.

“Lord Sesshomaru asked if I would show you to your rooms.” She began. “Mistress am I to be leaving back with you?”

“Yes you will be traveling with us. You will be of great assistance.” Emi said as the girl bowed and walked off with the group of mercenaries behind her. “Well I'll see you all in the morning.” Emi was then gone with a blink of an eye. Lord Wakana and Lord Noriko grumbled something about showing off before they too disappeared.

“Come Kagome.” Was all Inuyasha said before he walked passed Kouga back towards the rooms. He smirked at the look the Ookami Prince had on his face, it got even worse once Kagome followed Inuyasha down the corridor.

lemon here-

Kagome arrived at her room and sat on her bed. She noticed the sleeping yukata and began to take of her own Kimono when she felt a presence in her room. She didn't falter once she realized who it was she just smiled and continued with taking off her clothing. Once her Kimono dropped to the floor she found herself enveloped in a warm embrace.

She turned around in his arms and immediately felt warm lips on hers. Inuyasha licked her lips and once she opened her mouth his tongue went to explore. He picked Kagome up and without breaking the kiss he went to his room since his bad is much larger. He laid Kagome on the bed gently and climbed over her. He was waiting to do that all day, since Kouga felt it was his job to undress Kagome with his eyes he simply had to claim what was his.

He trailed kisses down her jaw and neck. He couldn't help be admire the spot between the end of her neck and the start of her shoulder. He felt an urge to bite instead he nibbled at it and kept going. He reached her breast and began to fondle with them. He took one into his mouth and listened to the small whimper that came from Kagome. If he was human he would have never heard it. He nibbled and blew lightly on the breast before turning to the other one, his eyes twitched every time she would make a sound. If only he could make it louder, funny thing is he knew he could make your moan as loud as she could, and he intended on doing so that night.

He continued his butterfly kisses down her stomach, he trailed his tongue around her belly button feeling her squirm once he did so. His tongue ran down and into her inner thigh. He brought his tongue into her soft lips and instead of a whimper Kagome moaned. That reaction was enough to get Inuyasha to keep going. He expertly move his tongue around searching for that one spot that would make her go wild.

His tongue ran along her sides and as he got deeper her moans got louder. He went a little further and he reached his destination. Kagome's head shot back as she moaned. She arched her back and raised her hips, but he simply brought them back down. He continued his raid as every now and then went back to that spot.

He finally brought his tongue out and went back up to her neck. He nibbled her neck before flipping her over. He positioned himself as he kissed her shoulder and the back of her neck. Then he entered her and let out a small growl. It was the moment he's been waiting for and damn it she was tight. He came to her barrier and quickly broke it. Kagome cried out in pain and Inuyasha patiently held her waist as he waited for to get over the pain.

“Keep going Yasha.” Kagome urged suddenly liking the feeling of him inside her. Inuyasha chuckled before he complied with her wishes. He set a pace and listened to her moans.

Inuyasha was holding himself back, he has been for a while. He hated seeing her hurt and didn't wish to hurt her himself. Inuyasha could feel the demon side of him trying to take control, and at any moment he would lose it.

“Inu…yasha” Kagome moaned. He had finally lost it, the way he said his name was enough to do it. He began to go faster, pounding into her. His eyes glowed red in the dark and he growled.

Kagome felt him moving faster and her head shot backwards. That was when she noticed his eyes. She smiled. `I was wondering when he would finally let loose.' Kagome simply tightened her grip on the sheets and felt him dig his face in the crook of her neck. She could hear the vicious growls coming from him and knew he was enjoying it as much as he was.

Inuyasha knew they would come soon so he quickened the pace even more. Kagome was moaning uncontrollably at that moment. He enjoyed the music. He felt her tremble as she gave out a loud moan that had happened to be his name. He bit into her neck as he came right after her. His seed entered her body as he tasted her blood, and was oddly sweet and he liked the taste. He bit a little harder just to make sure it would scar.

-lemon over

He brought his fangs out and Kagome felt a tingly feeling where he had just bit her. And saw a tiny red glow out of the corner of her eye. And noticed Inuyasha's smirk and that his eyes were still red.

Inuyasha watched as the red light finally dimmed out and around the mark was his family crest outlined in red. His signature color. He had to admit red looked good on her. He could see the red sheets against her skin. She was like a piece of candy wrapped in red. Those were usually the hot kind.

Inuyasha lightly grazed her teeth and listened to the moan that came with it. The mark itself was for other demons, the music was for the owner of the mark personal gain. Inuyasha smirked before wrapping his arms around her waist and pulled her close since she was already asleep.

Myoga sat with Totosai in the dark fire lit cave. Myoga sat cross legged with his hands stroking his chin.

“I feel like we've forgot something very important in the information that we gave Lord Inuyasha.” Myoga said.

“Yep you did.” Totosai said.

“You mean you knew!” Myoga said looking at Totosai with wide eyes.

“Of course I knew.”

“Why didn't you tell them?” Myoga asked.

“Because I wanted to see Lord Inuyasha hit you again.” Totosai said attempting to scratch his back. Myoga leveled with a glare. “I also wanted to know if your memory was as good as you think it is.”

“Well what did I forget to tell him?” Myoga asked. `Totosai is going to be the cause of my death one day.'

“Oh nothing except for the key to the battle was human…”

“I specifically remember telling Lord Inuyasha that!” Myoga stated feeling hope well up inside of him.

“Yes but you forgot to tell him that the human will no longer be human. And that they were destined to cross paths on the same night he got a mate.” Totosai said still attempting to scratch his back with complete concentration.

“Oh! Stupid, stupid, stupid Myoga! That was important because there are several outcomes to this night. But the one foretold would lead them to fulfill the prophecy.” Myoga said.

“No doubt they will come here if the halberd has done its duty.” Totosai said.

“That is right it is only a matter of time now.” Myoga said.

“Yep. Could you scratch my back for me?” Totosai asked. He looked so serious. Myoga sweat dropped as Totosai began to pull off his shirt. `Yep Totosai will be my death.'

It was the crack of dawn and Inuyasha was up and was fully clothed. He wore a red Haori with white crescent moons along the shoulder. As well at the base of his hakama. There was a similar outfit out for Kagome. Inuyasha made sure that she wore white with red crescents.

Kagome stirred in her sleep. She was never really a morning person but for some odd reason she woke up and it was dawn. DAWN. She never woke at dawn unless somebody woke her. Her eyelids were still heavy but she wasn't going back to sleep she knew they'd be leaving soon anyways.

She opened her mouth to speak but Inuyasha beat her to it.

“Get changed we will be leaving soon.” Inuyasha said. He looked at her and smirked. He really couldn't help it he knew that she had questions about the mark and she was just too gorgeous at the moment. Suddenly Inuyasha caught a scent and made his way towards the door and opened it a little so that the person standing behind it could only see him.

“Lord Inuyasha, Lord Sesshomaru states that he is awaiting you and your companions arrival. I have awakened your companions and Bankotsu and his companions as well. Is there anything you would like for me to do?” The servant said. `Yea, get the fuck out of my face.'

“No that is all. Dismissed.” Inuyasha shut his door and turned to see Kagome was dressed and was about to brush her hair. Inuyasha walked towards and stole the brush from her hands and began to brush her hair before she could complain. Kagome immediately relaxed and gave a contented sigh.

“How do you walk around in this all day? It's too spacious.” Kagome said. Inuyasha chuckled.

“That's the point. It's better for traveling.” Inuyasha said.

“What was the matter with my uniform?” Kagome asked still wondering why she had to wear the outfit that she wasn't really thinking about her question properly.

“That damned skirt is too small. There is no way I'm going to let you walk around Japan showing everything under that damned thing!” Inuyasha said still gently running the brush through her hair. He liked her hair it wasn't too straight or too curly. It wasn't real wavy either, and it was silky and smooth.

“Is it really that bad?” Kagome asked. Inuyasha looked at her as if she lost her mind.

“Are you seriously asking that stupid assed question?” Inuyasha asked.

“Are you really answering a question with a question?” Kagome asked.

“Apparently so are you.” Inuyasha rolled his eyes. “And to answer your earlier question…YES it's fucking bad, it's absolutely terrible!”

“Okay Inuyasha I understand. No more school uniform, seeing as I wont be needing it anymore.” Kagome said with surprisingly a bright smile on her face. It seemed that she wasn't at all fazed by the fact that she was a drop out.

Inuyasha suddenly stopped as he heard something not so far off, and it was spoken directly to Inuyasha from down the hall. It simply had to be Sesshomaru, no other person would talk to Inuyasha from that distance fully aware that he would hear from that distance.

“We are ready Inuyasha.” Was what Sesshomaru said.

“Come Kagome.” Inuyasha said, and judging by the way he said it, it was time to get serious. Kagome followed Inuyasha out of the room and down the hall where they met the rest of the travelers. It was actually a very large group. The was Inuyasha and herself, Miroku and Sango, Kouga and Ayame, Shippo and Kirara, Ginta and Hakkaku, Lord Noriko and Lord Wakana, Lord Sesshomaru and Mistress Emi, Kyokotsu and Renkotsu, Suikotsu and Jakotsu, and Bankotsu and the mysterious emotion demon. `I wonder what her name is.' Kagome thought to herself.

“Bout time you got here doggy! We're ready to go!” Bankotsu said obviously in a hurry. Inuyasha rolled his eyes at Bankotsu's behavior.

“Don't worry about your precious Banryuu, I'm sure we'll figure out what happened to your baby in no time.” Inuyasha said. `At least I hope so, that way we'll be able to be rid of him.'

“Whatever you're just jealous.” Bankotsu said not really making any sense. Inuyasha simply raised an eyebrow as Sesshomaru snorted and rolled his eyes. Kagome's eyes slightly widened as she knew that little swap of theirs was about to begin, and with so many people here to witness it, including the Band of Seven she was positive neither Sesshomaru nor Inuyasha would like it in the end.

Miroku and Sango suddenly walked towards Kagome as they left the palace grounds and into the forest. Suddenly Sango hopped on Kirara with Miroku as Shippo sat on Miroku's shoulder. Lord Noriko slightly wondered how the priestess would travel seeing as he didn't know the affects of the mark on humans. What he soon figured out stunned him for a second as Inuyasha started moving without as much as taking a second glance to his newly found mate. Yeah that's right mate.

Kagome was a bit surprised as Inuyasha leapt off without her, and to her surprise her feet started moving on her own. She was able to move just as fast as Inuyasha, and it came naturally to her. Miroku looked down surprised at Kagome, but Sango knew the answer to his unspoken question.

“Miroku, she can move like that because she ahs mated with Inuyasha.” Sango said not going into detail.

“Ah.” Was all Miroku said, he could ask more questions later.

The group was moving at a fast pace, and nobody seemed to tire out as nightfall came. Mistress Emi suggested that they stop for the night since they wouldn't reach Totosai within the next sunrise. Sesshomaru had agreed and they all settled down.

“Manami I wish to speak with you.” Mistress Emi said as she and the emotion demoness disappeared into the forest. Kagome heard her name and thought about it. `Manami…some how it fits her. Love, affection, beautiful, and sometimes sea or ocean.' Now that Kagome had gotten a better view of Manami, she saw that she was a very beautiful girl. She was shorter than Kagome by an inch, her eyes were a fuchsia color, and she had curves in all the right places.

Once they had left everybody else decided that it was time to settle down. Bankotsu found himself a tree to sleep in while all the other demons slept against a tree. Sango, Miroku, and Shippo lay against Kirara and Inuyasha grabbed Kagome and went into a tree of their own. He held her close as they drifted off to sleep. When Emi and Manami came back they both found spots that were farther away from the group, but still close enough where they were in seeing distance.

Mistress Emi knew that Lord Sesshomaru was still awake, and she had some things to discuss about the situation.

“Lord Sesshomaru?” Emi spoke in a barely audible voice that she knew Sesshomaru would hear. Emi waited for a response, and wasn't surprised when Sesshomaru suddenly leapt down beside her.

“Yes?” Sesshomaru asked.

“I have a couple of questions.” Emi said not even looking in Sesshomaru's direction. She seemed to be looking off in the distance. Sesshomaru smirked and Emi did not miss it in her peripheral vision. She was curious as to his new attitude. Now that she thought about it, Lord Inuyasha had a strange attitude as well.

!Flashback!

They were traveling for a while now, and it was just about noon. It wouldn't take too long to get to Totosai seeing as he lived in the North. Totosai himself was an element demon, a fire one at that. One of the more common ones that Inuyasha just couldn't stand. Kagome couldn't help but notice the obvious change in Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's way of traveling. Sesshomaru seemed to travel a little more wild while Inuyasha was a little more graceful, subconsciously causing Kagome to travel more graceful due to the mark.

“How far does that stupid demon live anyways?” Bankotsu asked in irritation. He was absolutely bored. Kagome briefly wondered how the Band of Seven stayed together this long with his impatience.

“Big brother! I'm hungry!” Jakotsu suddenly shouted from behind.

“I honestly don't care!” Bankotsu shouted back.

“But big brother!”

“Jakotsu is all that screaming really called for?!” Renkotsu asked in irritation. Suikotsu himself was getting tired of their excessive yelling. They were probably just angry about Kyokotsu's death. It was just recently they got ambushed by some crazy demons that were after the power that Banryuu suddenly held. Kyokotsu fell into one of their traps and perished seeing as it was poison they had to leave him behind because there was nothing they could do for him.

“Guys I'm sure excessive rambling is getting on everybody else's nerves.” Suikotsu said trying to call them down, but obviously failing miserably.

“Who gives a damn what they feel at the moment?!” Bankotsu yelled. Sesshomaru was grating his teeth at the moment and Inuyasha raised an eyebrow.

“Yeah! And besides I'm starving!” Jakotsu screamed.

“Will you guys shut up?!” Renkotsu yelled. “You're really grating on my nerves right now!”

“I apologize Renkotsu.” Bankotsu said. “I APALOGIZE BECAUSE I DON'T GIVE A DAMN!”

Suddenly Sesshomaru let out a loud growl and stopped dead in his tracks and whipped around and face the three screaming men.

“WILL YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP? EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU ARE GIVING ME A GODAMN HEADACHE!” Sesshomaru then turned around and continued traveling as Inuyasha soon followed with Kagome hot on his tail.

Lord Noriko's mouth was agape at Sesshomaru's outburst and Lord Wakana blinked a couple of times. Mistress Emi just stared curiously at the men, as if she was trying to solve a puzzle, but somehow she didn't have enough pieces to put the puzzle together.

!End Flashback!

“I'm listening.” Sesshomaru said. Suddenly staring into Emi's eyes as she turned to look at him. Her obsidian orbs somehow glowing in the darkness.

“What on earth is going on with you and Inuyasha?” Emi said losing the titles. Sesshomaru noticed that and smirked a bit more.

“Why Emi…whatever do you mean?” Sesshomaru asked deciding to loose the title as well.

“I believe you know exactly what I'm talking about.” Emi stated as she turned to look away from him and stare into the forest. Sesshomaru simply raised an eyebrow and grinned.

“What is wrong with your personalities?” Emi tried again.

“Ah.” Sesshomaru said as he grabbed a fist full of her hair and pulled so that she was facing him. “That is for me and him to know.” Sesshomaru then leaned forward and captured her lips in an enticing kiss.

Somehow she knew that he was back to his own personality, even before she had come back with Manami. She pushed away all her thoughts for the moment, only to enjoy her kiss.

Inuyasha was a little surprised to wake up and see his brother and Mistress Emi nearly fucking each other in the clearing. Okay so they were just making out, but that is what always leads to sex. He quickly looked away and ignored them after the shock. He couldn't blame his brother though the Mistress was a pretty and powerful woman. He looked down at the woman in his arms and wondered how lucky he was to have her.

Sesshomaru had finally noticed his brother, and even if he wasn't looking at them he knew that his brother was very aware. Reluctantly Sesshomaru had pulled away from Emi and smirked at the small pout that her lips had formed. He looked towards his brother, and he could've sworn he thought he saw her glare at him but it was gone as quickly as it came.

Kagome began to stir and her eyes fluttered open. She looked at her mate who seemed to have been in deep thought. She didn't know what he was thinking about, but she did know that he wasn't troubled about anything so she let him think. She took a look at her surroundings, she immediately noticed Mistress Emi since Kagome had taken a liking to her in the first place. She also noticed Lord Sesshomaru since her was next to the Mistress. Kagome noticed that Kouga and Ayame were off a great distance and appeared to have been keeping watch with Ginta and Hakkaku bothering them about something, although Kagome knew that was unnecessary. Lord Wakana was playing a beautiful instrument, and Kagome figured that was what awoken her. Lord Wakana was sitting on a bolder facing the sunrise playing his flute is appeared to be. Lord Noriko was off in his lonesome and appeared to be very aggravated. Sango, Kirara, Miroku, and Shippo were off chatting happily like every morning. Manami was talking silently with Bankotsu in what looked to be about the halberd which wasn't surprising in the least. Suikotsu and Renkotssu were off minding there own business an Jakotsu was knocked out cold. He must really like his sleep.

“Kagome.” Inuyasha said. Kagome looked at him. She hadn't moved from her position so she wouldn't disturb his thoughts, but she knew that he knew that she was awake even before her eyes opened.

“Yes Inuyasha?” She asked.

“Are you hungry? Or can you wait a bit longer?” Inuyasha asked turning to stare at her. Kagome thought about it for a second before answering.

“I can wait Inuyasha.” Kagome said before Inuyasha nodded. And motioned for her to get up. Kagome leapt out of the trees and soon Inuyasha was behind her. They looked like a couple, mainly because of there matching outfits.

Sesshomaru stood up when his brother nodded his ready and immediately took off. Inuyasha, Kagome, Mistress Emi, Manami, and the Lords were hot on the trail. Sango, Miroku, and Shippo on Kirara soon caught up with the wolves behind them as well as Bankotsu and Suikotsu. It appeared that Renkotsu was stuck waking up Jakotsu which was harder than anybody would think.

“Sesshomaru is coming.” Totosai said from his bath that he was taking on top of his hill.

“And how would you know that?” Myoga called from somewhere below.

“I have a bad feeling. One that says possible death. You know the kind I get whenever I see the Lord.” Totosai said. Myoga shook his head.. Although if the halberd did his job then he wouldn't be surprised if her had said Inuyasha. But his theory of sensing the Lord of the Western Lands was a little over the top if you asked him.

“Myoga!” Came Totosai's voice from the hill. Myoga thinking that the man was in trouble ran up to assist and get a look at the danger so he could possibly plan his escape.

“What? What is it?” Myoga asked once he noticed no danger.

“It's…It's horrible!” Totosai screamed. Myoga then thought he was in internal pain looked worried.

“Where does it hurt?” Myoga asked. Totosai was rather old…everybody has got to die sometime.

“Hurt? Who said anything about something hurting?” Totosai asked.

“Then what was so horrible?” Myoga asked.

“I forgot to get something to scratch my back. Could you get it for me?” Totosai said. Myoga sweat dropped.

Renkotsu gave Jakotsu a shake.

“Get up Jakotsu.” Renkotsu said.

“Five more minutes!” Jakotsu mumbled before flipping on his side. Renkotsu groaned, it was going to be a long morning. Usually they would let Jakotsu sleep in, but they couldn't allow him to do that today.

“Iniki.” Suikotsu said from the rear.

“What is it?” Bankotsu asked. Inuyasha scoffed at the nickname. It was obvious who was older and taller.

“Renkotsu and Jakotsu have not caught up yet.” Suikotsu said.

“You know Jakotsu isn't waking up anytime soon. I am the only one who knows how to wake him up. And it's absurd trust me.” Bankotsu said with a chuckle. Manami decided to come into the conversation.

“Why is that?” She asked.

“Because Jakotsu is an idiot who somehow puts himself in a mode that is immune to movement, and loud noises unless he feels that he is in danger.” Bankotsu said. “Since Renkotsu is no challenge for Jakotsu and is basically family Jakotsu feels no danger towards him.”

“Ah.” Manami said still not really understanding the situation. “So how do you wake him up?”

“That is for me to know and all of you to find out.” Bankotsu said.

“What's that supposed to mean?” Shippo asked from above. Bankotsu looked at him with a smirk on his face.

“Well that last person that leaved is responsible for waking him up-“ Bankotsu began.

“And why would you say that? We will obviously leave him behind.” Lord Noriko stated.

“Well if you want to deal with a screaming and yelling Jakotsu who won't shut up until he feels like it when he catches up, I suggest you do it.” Bankotsu said. Everybody then thought about the loud mouthed mercenary for a second and then shuddered. They all silently agreed if they were the last ones to leave then they would wake him up. Even if it was a waste of there time.

Renkotsu prepared himself to kick Jakotsu until Jakotsu stopped his foot and flipped him backwards before turning back in his sleep and resumed snoring.

“WAKE THE HELL UP JAKOTSU!” Renkotsu shouted at the top of his lungs. Renkotsu received nothing but louder snores.

“WAKE THE HELL UP JAKOTSU!”

“He should just give up.” Bankotsu said before they all came to a stop at a river. Kouga immediately went to catch some fish to eat. Soon he was joined with the rest of the group as Kagome set up a fire to cook them on.

They saw a flock of birds spread from an area quickly but knew there was no attack because they heard no explosion.

“I wonder if that was them?” Totosai asked.

“There is always a possibility.” Myoga said.

“Hmm. If that is them then they are closer than I thought. I mean they're only about five minutes away.” Totosai said.

“So now you two are doubting my ability?” Came an angry voice that they both knew all too well.

`I didn't sense him coming!'

`Oh man! Sesshomaru is here! He's going to kill me!”

“Master Inuyasha! You're here! Surely you know that I would never doubt your demonic ability!” Myoga said. “Although common sense is a different story.”

Bankotsu bust out in laughter as Miroku and Shippo tried to hold there's in. Shippo was unsuccessful. Inuyasha's eyebrow twitched and he squashed Myoga with his foot.

“That'll teach you.” Was all he said before snatching Banryuu from Bankotsu who was caught off guard because of his laughter.

“Hey!” He said trying to jump Inuyasha for his beloved. Inuyasha rolled his eyes before handing it out to Totosai.

“Shut up! I'm doing you a favor that would have most likely disagreed to!” Inuyasha said and sat down with his arms tucked in his sleeves. It was Bankotsu's turn to twitch.

`How un-royal like!'

“Then why did you?” Was the question.

“Because I had a feeling.” Inuyasha said.

“What kind of feeling?” Miroku asked now suddenly interested in the conversation.

“I don't know just a feeling.”

“What it a feeling like something troublesome kept telling your brain to do something?” Miroku asked.

“Why do you ask?”

“I'll take that as a yes.” Miroku said.

“Why do you ask? I wont repeat myself again.” Inuyasha said with an annoyed look on his face. Bankotsu himself was irritated with the monk at his dumb smart questions.

“Because then that would be your conscience.” Miroku said. Sango began to giggle and Kagome had a small smile on her face but chose wisely to hide it.

“I have no conscience.” Inuyasha said stubbornly.

“That what was that feeling Inuyasha?” Shippo asked.

“How the hell am I supposed to know?!” Inuyasha asked. Kagome then decided to rescue Miroku before Inuyasha decided to blow up with a big bang.

“Shouldn't we be focused on Banryuu?” Kagome asked.

“Finally somebody understands the importance of its name!” Bankotsu said but was ignored as everybody was curious about the halberd in question.

“Well the Halberd seems to have gained some new powers in response to his owner.” Totosai said.

“But that doesn't make sense.” Kagome said.

“Lady Kagome is right. If Bankotsu is a demon then the Banryuu should have gotten more demonic if anything.” Mistress Emi said.

“You're right you can sense the purity coming right off this thing.” Totosai said. “So if the Banryuu is pure then so should Bankotsu. That's all I know.” Totosai said.

“That's all you know.” Inuyasha said.

“Yes. That's all I know.” Totosai said again.

“You're lying to me. Why the hell must we go through this every fucking time?” Inuyasha asked.

“I don't know what you mean! Hehe.” Totosai said nervously. Inuyasha sighed before standing up and Kagome knew what was coming.

“So Sango how is Kohaku?” Kagome asked walking over to Sango away from Totosai not wanting to be in the scene.

“ Oh! Well when we left he was fairing just fine.”

Bang

“ That's good. Does he get along with little Kanna?”

Boom

“Yes. I'm actually glad that she is at the village. She is great help.”

Bam

“Yea. She's like a little angel now that Naraku is gone.”

Whack

“Man that had to hurt!” Shippo suddenly said. “I can almost feel it.”

“I need a bath.” They heard Totosai's voice.

“You just had a bath!” Yelled Myoga. Everybody sighed and shook there heads.
