Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Tree and the Well: What Was Left Unsaid. ❯ Plotnapping? ( Chapter 6 )

Kagome couldn't believe that she let her friends drag her to this carnival, yet here she was outside a fortunetellers hut with her giggling friends.

"Come on" they giggled, "It'll be fun, you'll see"

Sighing she followed them in upon where one girl after the other got their fortunes read. Being the last in the group she half-heartedly hand her hand over to the reader.

% Ah yes I see% the gypsy smiled % I see that your soul is tied to another, not just anyone but to a past love, it seems that the two of you where meant to be with one another until the end of time. Yes but I also see much heartache for you, yes you will learn of some awful news about this love before true love finds you. Oh and I foresee an enemy, someone that will try to destroy you and your love, yes there is much darkness that surround him, but it is only you who can bring him light. Be forewarned that not all is what it seems, trust in the wolf and the dog, listen well to what the old fox says, but take care with the fox in human form, trust the one with hind powers, you'll find with the demon of many eyes, they will help you in this journey. Take care child and choice your allies carefully. Now I must take my leave of you% and with that she was gone.

"Well that was an odd reading," one of her friends huff.

"Yeah, I wonder what it all means," pondered another.

A familiar tingle at the back of Kagome's neck brought her out of her friends' conversation. There, heading for the Fun House was Sesshoumaru, or at least someone that looked alot like him, ditching her friends she followed him in.

!@#$%^&)*(

"Business my pink tail!" cried Mika.

"You dyed your tail?" asked Kane.

Mika shot him a `look could kill' stare, at which he shrugged and continued to flip through chancels. Mika sighed she really couldn't blame him for trying to cheer her up; it was in his family history to try, she was just grateful that the perverted ness was wiped out of it long ago. Kane was the last of Sango and Miroku's line, for now at least. She looked at the young man on the couch, he was so different from the last time she saw him, back then he was seven, his parents where just murdered, his eyes seemed so dead back then. But then again Shippou was known for his sunny out look she doubt that any one could remain down for long with him around. Yes Shippou had done a lot to heal the small boy's heart over the years, he had even kept up the old family traditions that his family had, like the telling of her uncle's tale, and training him in his powers. Sighing she continued her pacing all the while griping about her father's lack of commitment.

"They're here," Kane suddenly stated while turning off the set.

"Who? Dad?" she question quickly.

"No, the other `them'" he replied.

The other `them' meant only one thing. Bounding up stairs she run to got her father's old sword the one made from the demon that destroyed her uncle's sword. Upon reaching the top of the stairs she was met with a familiar face.

"Leiko" she growled out.

"Nice to see you too, daughter," the woman smiled as she looked down at Mika, holding her father's sword, Tokijin. "You weren't thinking about playing with this old thing were you?" she laughed, "Pups should learn not to play with swords. They could hurt you if you're not careful, hasn't your father taught you that?" With that said she took a swing at Mika; only to hit a force field.

"Kane," growled Mika

"I suggest that you worry about yourself boy," said a voice from behind him "Dance of Blades"

(Mouse: Three guesses as to who `she/he' is.)

Kane gave a yelp as one of the blades hit his shoulder.

"Spirit Gun"

Out of what appeared to be no where a ball of greenish light came forth and hit Kagura square on the shoulder.

"We didn't ask for help so BUD OUT!" barked Mika at the new comer.

"As if," replied Yusuke.

"Can we quarrel, about whose going to have to save whose tail, later," Kane butted in.

"That suits me just fine," replied Leiko as she took another swing at Mika, only to hear steel meet fang.

"What is this save the girl day?!" screamed one pissed of Mika to a level head Hiei.

"Hey!" barked Kane, holding his shoulder, glaring at his foe.

"It wasn't plural."

"Still"

"Enough, sister," yelled Kagura, as a small girl dress in white walked into the room.

"You expect a little kid to defeat us?" laughed Yusuke.

"Don't look into the mirror," barked Kane

"Why"
"Dance of Blades"

The blades of air hit both Yusuke and Kane sending them flying into the nearest wall.

"Yusuke"

"Kane"

"You have other problems to worry about," cried Leiko swing her sword once more, throw Hiei off balance and over the rail, lucky Mika caught a hold of him.

"What to do? What to do?" Leiko smirked, sword raised.

Kanna slowly walked over to Kane, who was waking up, and the first thing his eyes focused on was the mirror. His soul began to leave his body and enter the mirror, just as Yusuke began to wake up. Focusing he tried to aim his Spirit Gun to hit the girl.

"I wouldn't do that if I was you," Kagura stated above him.

So they were a stand still as Kane's soul filtered into the mirror. When Kanna was done Kagura order him to come, and to the surprise of Hiei and Yusuke, Kane obeyed. As quickly as they had come they had left.

"Okay, someone needs to start talking," Yusuke said glaring at Mika.

"Well… roughly 500 years ago…"

*(&)^%$#@!

Sesshoumaru growled as he made his way through the Fun House, he was getting tried of this maze.

"There you are, Kouga and I have been waiting on you," said a man with fiery hair.

Sesshoumaru sighed and followed him back to where Kouga was waiting.

"About time, dog," greeted Kouga.

Ignoring the `cur' Sesshoumaru asked the man "Why are we here?"

"His back, been snooping around too, and you'll never guess what form he's in now. No wonder Inuyasha wouldn't let…."

"Kouga?"

The trio turned around quickly only to face, Kagome.

"What are you doing?" the red-head barked.

Ignoring him, "Sesshoumaru, Kouga, what's going on here?" she asked.

"Told you, you should have told her by now," smirked the wolf.

"Would you hold your tongue? For once!"

"You mean you haven't… Sesshoumaru!"

"Would someone clue me in here?! Who's back and why are you…"

*Cell phone rings* causing everyone to be quite, for a while.

"Hello?" answers Sesshoumaru

"Hi, daddy we have a small problem you see…." Mika states on the other end.

"What?!!!" screech Sesshoumaru once he's heard the details. "Blast, `mon Shippou, we have a mess to clean up."

"And why do I have to go?" asked the red-haired man.

"They have Kane."

And with that the two left in silence.

"Okay Kouga, start talking," growled Kagome.

Poor Kouga, all he could do was sigh "It's been what 2-3 months since the well was sealed, right?" he asked looking to Kagome to confirm what he said.

She nodded, "two".

"It's been 500 years for us; things have changed so much since then, Sango and Mirkou, married with kids. The runt growing up… Inuyasha's death."

There was a small gasp for Kagome, "He… he's dead," she choked.

"Yeah, he was going to wait for you, but Naraku got in the way. We didn't kill him, Kagome, and due to our error Inuyasha paid the price. It's been 249 years since he past; they buried him under the God Tree, made it and the well into a shrine, it's still standing from what I have heard. Sesshoumaru took the runt in after Inuyasha's death; he did a good job raising the kit… Inuyasha that is, poor thing was a wreak after his death." Kouga just hanged his head, letting what he just told her to sink in.

"Kouga… you said that Naraku was still around correct?"

He nodded.

"Where is he now? And who is Kane?"

"To the first question, we don't know, to the later, Kane is the only living heir of Sango and Mirkou. Shippou's been taking care of him since his parents died; Sesshoumaru has him now since Shippou had to duck into hiding because Naraku is after the Tetsusaiga and he's the only one that knows where it is, right of this moment."

Sam: I think "we'll" stop there.

<In the background> Mouse: Come back here you over grown paper weight!

<Sweet drops> Sam: Sorry folks but it seems as if this thing has a mind of it's and is running the show how it likes things.

<In the background> Computer *whistles something* and then run off as Mouse chases after it.

Sam: *cough* Anyway `we' are sorry for the delay, life kind of got in the way, not to mention that Mouse really doesn't like doing fight scenes. So umm… yeah. Move right along: reviews… … …. Okay people why are you in such a hurry to pair Kagome off? Give the poor girl time to grief! But if you really want to know who `we' have paired Kagome up with then look at Shippou's `pen name' Iyandkh; now go and figure that one out. Oh and to Supikun2001 who has guessed that `we' have paired off everyone but poor Shippou, `we' are sorry. Kind of see him as a kid still, but `we' are working on it, any request? So until Mouse `re-plugs' her computer in, or finally comes to realize and expect the life this story has taken on, `we' must bid you a fair well.

<In the background> Mouse: *still after the computer* Blast you, you worthless piece of *&^(*&^ get back here and by a good technology slave and write the ***&^% *&^%# I tell you to!

Sam: This could be a while folks. Oh, I forgot, you thought you where done with the `spirits' didn't you. Well they're here for the whole thing so keep an eye out for them.
