Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha! I do own Catherine AKA Kitty, and the plot, and storyline... There. I said it. (sighs)
Most importantly I would like to give a BIG shout out and HUGE thanks to my beta Frog Lady! :)

Chapter 11:
Next morning...
Kitty woke up, and noticed Bankotsu still had his head on her chest. She smiled and absenmindedly began running her fingers through his thick and lush hair. He stirred and murmured, "Mmm, I love when you run your fingers through my hair"; while embracing herShe smiled and said, "Good because I love doing so. It's so relaxing"; with a peaceful face.Bankotsu raised his head to look into her eyes and asked, "How you feeling?"Kitty looked into his gorgeous sapphire eyes and replied seductively, "Actually I am feeling a bit frisky this morning."Bankotsu grinned and responded, "Oh really?" Kitty nodded while grinning. Bankotsu moved to and captured her lips in a fierce kiss and rolled her on top of him.Kitty broke the kiss, laughed, gazed down at him and informed him, "Seems I am not the only one, eh?"Bankotsu gazed up at her with desire filled eyes and confirmed huskily, "You got that right, babe!"Then he leaned up and captured her mouth in another fierce kiss which she eagerly returned. They wrestled around pinning each other and laughing for about thirty minutes, then made passionate love again and got dressed. Kitty looked at him and mentioned, "Before the others awaken I want to go bathe." Bankotsu nodded and they quietly left the cave holding hands and walked to the river. Along the way they took in the lush and plentiful scenery. Kitty gazed at the vegetation and trees. When they arrived at the river they undressed then slipped into and bathed in the river together.When they finished they dried off in the sun and then dressed and returned to the camp to find the others were all awake and eating breakfast. Sesshomaru had seen them walk off and figured they had bathed. The lovers sat down and ate, then everyone packed up and got ready to leave. Sesshomaru stated, "Kitty, it seems you have recovered almost completely." Kitty blushed and nodded. Sesshomaru said, "Good. Let's head out!"Bankotsu ordered, "Just a minute." Then he turned to Suikotsu and ordered, "Suikotsu, I want you to head back and meet up with Ja and his group and tell them to head south!" Suikotsu nodded and took off to do as he had been bidden.Everyone else set off towards the castle. They still had another ten miles to go. Hakkaku, and Miroku walked next to Bankotsu. Kagome traveled on Inuyasha's back. Sesshomaru lead the way. Koga did his whirlwind thing. EVERYONE insisted Kitty ride Kirara with Sango as she hadn't quite completely healed yet. All were alert and kept their eyes peeled for any signs of trouble.Half way there Sesshomaru stopped and held up a hand silently commanding everyone else to stop. He faced the group and commanded, "Wait here, I will return shortly!" Then he used his cloud and took off.
With the gang...
Kitty went to climb off Kirara and Bankotsu ran over and helped her off. He gently held her by the waist and lifted her off Kirara's back and deposited her gently on her feet. She smiled at him while gazing into his deep blue orbs and thanked him.Kagome frowned and queried, "I wonder why he had us stop?"; as she sat down on the lush green grass and began to make a fire.Kitty decided to stretch her muscles a bit and began walking around a bit. After a while she came across some remains and hollered, "Over here, guys!" Bankotsu was by her side in an instant, Banryuu ready just in case. Kitty pointed to the remains that lay on the torn up ground. He looked down at what she was pointing at. Bankotsu turned to face the others and informed evenly, "Well, we found the remains of the priestess."Miroku walked over, took a closer look and added solemly, "Indeed, but why and how?"Kitty inspected the broken bow and arrows closely, grimaced looked at the others and replied, "Because she was a fake. She was no priestess!"Inuyasha looked at her and questioned, confused, "How can you tell?"Kitty looked at him and replied, "Any priestess worth her salt would have used an enchantment to protect her bow if nothing else. Even after her death the enchantment would remain for at least two months."Miroku, wearing a thoughtful expression, agreed, "Indeed! Even Lady Kagome has had her bow enchanted."Sango looked puzzled and queried, "So why would she pretend to be a priestess and try to tackle demons?"Kitty shook her head sadly and said, "Unfortunately, we will never know." Bankotsu, sensing she was upset, reached over and put an arm around Kitty. She moved into him and hugged his waist, and burried her head on his chest.Miroku stated grimly, "We should bury the remains and offer up a prayer."Kitty looked up, still hugging Bankotsu's waist, and said, "Look very closely at the clothes, monk, that was the first clue."Miroku nodded, then carefully examined the clothes closely and gasped, "These are not priestess clothes but appear to be the type for a barmaid!" Kitty sadly nodded; her eyes also were filled with sadness for the life that had ended so tragically.Kagome frowned and said, confused, "So she was a barmaid who pretended to be a priestess?"Kitty looked at Kagome, nodded, and informed her, "My guess is she wanted the honor bestowed on a priestess, and foolishly got herself killed in the process, pretending to be what she wasn't so as not to blow her ruse."Miroku looked at the group, nodded and added, "It would appear so. And if the villagers believed her to be a true priestess; when the trouble came she would have had to admit her farce or try to face the demons in order to keep the ruse going. She must have chosen the latter." He and Inuyasha then dug a grave and buried the remains. Miroku kneeled beside the grave and offered up a prayer.Kitty moved closer to the fire and said sadly, "One question answered, and many more that shall never be." She looked at the others and added, "We may as well try to get comfortable; I have a feeling we will be here a while."Inuyasha replied, "Feh!"; and sat down. Kagome scooted to sit next to him. Sango and Miroku sat down. Hakkaku sat down next to Koga. Kitty sat down and Bankotsu sat next to her.
With Sesshomaru...
Sesshomaru stared at the imp before him and ordered, "Jaken, take Rin and Ahun and return to my castle! Wait for me there!"Jaken gazed at his master and replied, "Aye, Milord"; with a bow.Rin looked at Sesshomaru and added, "Good luck, Milord!"Rin and Jaken then flew off on Ahun and Sesshomaru once again used his cloud and went back to the others.
With the others...
Kitty looked at the now pacing Inuyasha and said, "Relax, Inuyasha! I know you are spoiling for a fight but we should really wait for Sesshomaru to return! If what I suspect is true, we will need ALL the help we can get to attack that castle!"Miroku, watching Inuyasha as he paced, added seriously, "She is right, Inuyasha! I have a VERY bad feeling about that place!"Inuyasha rebutted, "Teh! I don't care what you think! I say we go and attack now!"He started to leave when Kagome yelled, "SIT BOY!"Inuyasha was immediately planted into the dirt in a rather large looking crater. He glared at Kagome and growled, "What the hell was that for, wench!?"Kagome's face turned red and she yelled, "SIT, BOY!"Inuyasha fell further into the crater and yelled, "Will you stop that!?"Kagome looked at him and said, "Then calm down and behave!"Inuyasha placed his hand on the ground and hoisted himself up out of the crater, huffed and walked over to the fire and sat down. Kitty shook her head and sighed. Miroku looked at the others and stated, "He never learns, does he?"Inuyasha growled, glared at him and demanded, "You got a problem, lech!?" Bankotsu, who found this display amusing, threw his head back and laughed. Inuyasha snapped his glare to Bankotsu and demanded, "What's so damn funny, merc!?"Kitty said dryly, "Stubborn insolent pup!"; while shaking her head sadly.Inuyasha growled, glared at her and demanded, "What was that!?"Kitty stood up held his gaze and repeated, "Stubborn! Insolent! PUP!" Bankotsu looked at the two of them and laughed again.Inuyasha angrily demanded, "Come say it to my face, wench!?"; while glaring at her.Kitty calmly stared him in the eye walked up to his face, drew back her hand and slapped him across the face, and said, "Don't EVER call me that again, you wretched pup!"Sesshomaru appeared and commanded, "Inuyasha, calm yourself and stop behaving like a wretched pup!" Kitty turned to face Sesshomaru, grinned and walked over to him.Inuyasha growled while glaring at Sesshomaru. He drew his sword and yelled, "Make me!"Kagome, seeing the glint in Sesshomaru's eyes, panicked and yelled, "SIT BOY!"Inuyasha was planted into the dirt once again. Kitty and Sesshomaru both smirked. Sesshomaru faced the group and said, "We can move out now. We will take the castle and make them tell us where Naraku is! MOVE OUT!"Everyone got up and set off towards the castle again.
