Destiny calls

Kaede heard of the terrible news later that night. She came to offer her assistants and find out what really happen. She knows she couldn't do a hold lot because of her age body.

Heading towards their house rain clouds forming over the night sky. Akihiro greet her at the door. He told her what he knows. Which it wasn't a hold lot for he came at the end.

“Suniko haven't spoken a word since then. She just sits next to them. Like she is lost in her mind.” He also told her about that she was rape.

Kaede was very saddened by the news. She has been close to the Inu Yasha and Kagome since the day that Kagome came from the well so long ago. She be there for their births and watch them grow. It was like she was their godmother. She knows they need her more than ever.

When Akihiro and Kaede walks into the bedroom where Inu Yasha, Kagome, and Kazuki lay in beds on the floor. Finding Suniko sitting above their heads. She just sat there. Not move a muscle when they walk in. Just stare at there bodies. You can tell with the stare she is lost in thought.

Akihiro and Kaede kneel down to the floor next to her. Kaede put her hand on Kagome's head.

“They still breathing!” She has thought they were dead.

Akihiro replied, “Yes, but their soul is not there. I don't understand what's going on. Who was he?”

“There's still hope my child if we could get their souls back into their bodies. They should be back like they were before.” said Kaede. “Did he said what his name was, Akihiro?”

“I didn't hear him said his name.” replied Akihiro.

For the first time since Sursana-ho left Suniko spoken.

“Sursana-ho. He said he was the god of enslave souls.”

“Sursana-ho you said. I don't recall that name nor heard a god of enslave souls.” said Kaede.

“Don't worry. I will get them back! And send this baster to hell. Even if it means my life.” said Suniko.

Kaede and Akihiro looked at her in worry. For they never seen her like this. Worry what she would do next.

“If I have mastered my Ki. I could have called their souls. Or those jars have special powers that could hold them in there forever.”

“Suniko, what is Ki?”

“Ki is the life force and energy that is in everything and everyone. It can be use in healing and in combat. I can heal my body. But not other's yet. I'm still learning.”

Akihiro spoken up, “Did Uncle Sesshomaru taught you these?”

“No. I heard about it when I was still in school at the library. There's no one alive this time or the other that has master Ki. The books I have found were in the fiction area and couple in history of great Martial arts masters. So I've been training myself in Ki.”

Suniko head lower. Her bangs cover her eyes. She was trying so hard to mask her emotions her rage, her fears, her pain. If her Uncle was here right now. He would be disappointed that she is losing her control over her true feelings. She would not let this baster Sursana-ho wins this battle. This is what he wants.

“I will send him to hell!!! Even if it means I go to hell also!” saying with so much feeling. So much rage.

Kaede and Akihiro feared. They know she been in training since she was born. They don't know what exactly what she is capable. That is what is scaring them.

Sensing there fears. Suniko looked up with her usual face. Try to ease their fears. “Don't worry about me. I would never hurt you.” with a smile on her face.

She was about to get up then a light appear in the room. Fearing it was Sursana-ho. They get ready to attack. Until a woman step out of the light.

“Fear not my friends. I'm not your enemy.”

She was young and pretty. She had long brown hair and blue eyes. She was wearing priestess cloths.

“Who are you?” asked Suniko.

“I am the priestess of the Oracle. Suniko, I think you are now ready.”

“Ready for what?”

“For your destiny. This is why you been training for your hold life. Before you were born you were chosen by the Great Oracle to be the guarding of time.”

Suniko took some time to think this over. Sharing right in the priestess eyes. Try to see if this was a trap.

“Guarding of time? Explain.” keep her stance.

“Suniko, you were giving great strengths with that comes great reasonability. The Great Oracle needs a woman with the power that can be controlled of both demon and human to secede her missions.”

Suniko waited for her to speak again. She hasn't answered my question.

“You haven't answered my question.”

The priestess smile, “Guarding of time means you be in time. Yet, not in time. Change time. Yet not changing time. No controlled what time.”

She's speaking in riddles. Suniko thought. She remembers what her parents told her. `When the `time' is right. You will understand.' Time. Is she talking about time traveling?

The priestess waited for her to speak. Answer the riddle.

Suniko spoke up, “Time travel. That's the answer.”

She smiles real big. Yes, I believe she is now ready for the journey.

“Ready to go?”

“What about Sursana-ho?”

“When the `time' is right. You will come back to finish that battle. Don't worry. To you this time would be like frozen.”

Suniko doesn't like this. She wants his blood now!

“Looks like I don't have a chose do I.”

Kaede was thinking to herself. So this is how it started then. I remember when I first meet Suniko 33 years ago but by a different name. It made since now.

Akihiro looked around. He saw that Kaede is not one bit surprise. Akihiro was trying to keep up.

“Am I the only one that's confused? What's going on?!”

Suniko look at her brother and replied. “Looks like I'm leaving.”

“Well, I kinda got that part.”

“Akihiro, watch over mom and dad and Kazuki.”

“What about Sursana-ho? There's no way I could fight him.”

“You won't. Like she said. This time would be like frozen. It would be like I never left. Bye. Or should I say I see you later agitator”

The priestess walked over to Suniko place her hand on her shoulder. Both of them were cover by light. Just like that Suniko left her home, her family, her time.

They appeared at a large temple that is cover by light. It felt like they were between times itself. The priestess started to walk inside. Suniko followed.

Inside there was like a well like with water inside.

“So priestess, got a name?”

“Now I'm called the priestess of the Oracle.”

“O…K… So I have to call you `Priestess of the Oracle'? Do you have any other name?”

“When I was young, before my destiny called, my family called me Sakura.”

“Is it ok I called you Sakura?”

“That would be fine. Forgive me. It's been so long since I've been around people. For I am bind to this Temple.”

“Really? So how is it you came and got me then?”

“Only for special situation the Oracle would let me go. But only for a sort time. That's why you are here. To go out to do the work that's needs to be done.”

“So, I'm your `airing boy' then?”

“Something likes that. Between missions you will come here for your rest. And these cloths would prove you some protection”

Sakura pointed at some cloths and armor. It was a lot like her fathers. But it was black and in a short skirt form. Also black knee high boots like to help cover her legs. And some diggers that could attach to her thighs. Suniko walk over and grab them. Look around for a place to change. Sakura told her she could go to the next room to change.

When Suniko came back Sakura was holding a sword.

“This is the Green Destiny. It's a power and unbreakable sword. There's nothing that this sword couldn't cut if you harness its power. In time you could harness its true power.”

She handles it to Suniko. It's truly a beautiful sword. The selves were black and green. Suniko pull the sword out. The sword is singing. At the base of the sword were a green dragon and a red one. They form a circle. Symbol the yin and the yang. She could feel the power from it. “Cool!” She's impress with the sword.

Sakura walk over to the well. She touches the surface of the water. It glowed. Then an image apparel in it.

Suniko walk over to get a better look. Looks like a country side dirt road. A group of people is walking on the road. She looks closer to make sure she is seeing this right. For the image is heaven view.

She saw her father, mother, Miroku, Sango. They looked younger. Also there was little Shippo when he was a kid and Kirara.

Suniko look back up to Sakura waiting for an explanation.

“This is your first mission. I hope you remember your history lesson on Naraku. They would come in handy for this one.”

Sakura pull out an incomplete Shikon jewel.

“It's fake. It would make him believe it's real until he calls upon the power. So it would come in handing one day fooling your enemy. I know that you love to pull pranks. That gifts of yours. That also would come in handle. Use it wisely. Also, don't be `too' open telling any of them about the future. Try to be discreet as possible. I know the message that Sesshomaru told you to tell him. Just make sure you two are alone. And one more thing your new name is Jubi. It's ok to let you're your past family and friends to know your birth name. But to the world of time you're Jubi. Any questions?”

Suniko does have like dozens of questions. But which one to ask first? Well, I guess I start with the obvious.

“So, how would I get there and come back?”

“I do that.”

Suniko look to where she was standing in front of her other side of the well. But she wasn't there. She didn't notice that she had move. Looking around trying to find her where she went. She was right behind her.

“The first step is always a dozy.”

Then Sakura push her into the well. Suniko scream as she was falling from the heaven.

“Oh! SHIT!”

The ground is coming too fast. Inu Yasha look up just in time to see something about to fall on top of him. But too late to do move.

*PLOW*
