Chapter 9 – Collision of Course

We are almost there. Kagome had started a mantra in her head. We are almost there. We are almost there. We are almost there. This gave Kagome a sense of center, balance, and a recovering patience from the last time she had heard...

“Keh, this is Boring! Are we there yet!?” ...that. For the last hour, starting approximately 10 minutes after getting a bug facial, a certain hanyou had been asking this same question EVERY FIVE MINUTES. She was trying so hard not to yell at him. She wanted to be in a good mood when they got to her Uncle's place. It was obviously not a good idea to give in and have a huge vocal fight 3 minutes out while still in the small rental car. Obvious... but not easy to resist.

“Sorry Inuyasha, not yet, but almost.” Kagome's mother however didn't seem to be fazed at all by the whining.

“It's been almost for the last two hours...”

Kagome's eyebrow twitched. And you made it seem like six... She had tried to divert his attention with the long cold bag of tempura. She gave Souta his share first, set a small amount aside for herself later, and then handed the rest to Inuyasha. Despite his earlier comments, he had eaten the rest of the contents by himself. That had helped, for about ten minutes, and then the oh so cliché question had been brought into action once again. Kagome tried her hardest to bear with it. We are almost there. We are almost there. We are almost ….

Suddenly there were two small lights ahead. Mrs. Higurashi swerved to miss hitting what looked very much like a small grey bunny in the middle of the country road. They came to an abrupt stop on the wrong side of the road and there was a shocked silence .

“Sorry kids, is everyone alright?” Mrs. Higurashi turned and looked to make sure everyone was still in one piece.

“Momma, that was scary!” Souta held the large book he'd been reading to the top of his head.

“We're alright back here Momma.” Kagome turned to look out the back window. “Was that a rabbit?”

“I dunno Dear. Here take a flashlight and look around. I need a breather before we drive on.” Mrs. Higurashi handed them the old red flashlight out of the glove box.

“Alright, come on Inuyasha. Let's make sure we didn't hit the poor thing.” Kagome pulled him out of the car.

“About time I get out of this thing....” He climb out after her.

Together they walked around the back of the car. Inuyasha's red ski jacket reflected brightly in the car's parking lights as they traveled back to where the car had made the wild veer. Beside the road they found nothing. No bunny. Kagome let out a breath.

“Keh, nothing...”

“I'm glad, I was afraid we might have hurt the poor thing.”

“At least I got to get out of that car...” Inuyasha said with an exaggerated stretch. Looking up he noticed the sky. “Hey, it almost looks normal up there.”

“Hmm?” Kagome looked up to see a big bright sky, full of the milky way. “Wow. It does remind me a lot of what it looks like in the Feudal Era. I forgot the sky was so pretty here at night.”

They spent a few minutes watching the stars. It was almost romantic, but then something started moving in the bushes by the road.

“What's that?”Kagome moved a little closer to Inuyasha. He moved between her and the road side and got into his crouching fighting stance. The noise came closer until out of the bush came a small gray nose, followed by two yellow eyes and a set of long rabbit-like ears. Kagome instantly let down her guard and knelt down.

“Aw. It's so Cute!. Come here little bunny...” Inuyasha growled and the head poked back into the bush.

“Inuyasha! Why'd you do that? Can't you see it's just a rabbit?” he didn't drop his stance but kept looking into the bushes while he talked.

“That's not a rabbit Kagome. It's one of the scents we found earlier today! You know the ones that have the Jewel. “

“But it's so small, it couldn't hurt anything. Besides, I don't feel the Jewel anywhere around here.”

“It could still be dangerous. What if it's something like Naraku and can change it's shape.” A small nose poked out of the bush again.

“Meow?”

“Aw...” Kagome knelt back down and held out her hand. It hopped into the dim light. Kagome could see it was dark grey with white on the paws and ear tips. There was also a bell on a collar.

“What are you doing?... I'm telling you that it's dangerous. What kind of rabbit goes 'Meow?' Kagome?”

“Here, bunny bunny. I don't know Inuyasha but look it has a collar, it's a pet. I really don't think it's dangerous. Does it smell like a demon?”

“Well no... All I can tell is that it's one of the scents from earlier. I've never smelled anything similar to it.”

“It really doesn't look like it's dangerous, Inuyasha.”

“Keh! Famous last words from the Miko who beat Naraku.”

“Oh grown up...” Kagome stood up and stuck her tongue out at him.

Suddenly She had a very disquieting feeling and she knew they had very little time.

“Inuyasha, I feel the Jewel. It's coming right at us!”

“See I told you it was a trap! Stay behind me.”

The rabbit-like creature had been sitting on it hind legs looking, for all the world, cute and harmless. Now it stood on all for legs, stiff with it's back arched and all the fur appeared to stand on end. Inuyasha growled in warning at it keeping himself between it and Kagome.

He had yet to draw the Tessaiga. He had insisted he bring it much to Kagome's complaint. Now she felt decidedly the other way about having him armed.

'What's going on Kagome?” Mrs. Higurashi called “Are you ready to get moving?”

“Momma, something's coming! Stay in the car! Souta you too!”

“What!? If it's dangerous you both get in here and we'll drive away.”

“We can't Momma. It's too fast, and it has the jewel!” Kagome put as much determination into her voice as possible. “We can't run.” She sorely missed having her bow, but she could still help Inuyasha fight. She just had to see the jewel and lead Inuyasha to it. She had turned her eyes back to the rabbit-like creature went it hissed and ran off into the night like a pack of dogs was after it.

“Inuyasha, It's almost here!” She stiffened and prepared herself. “it's coming from that way.” She pointed up the road.

“Keh,” Inuyasha cracked his knuckles. “Finally, I get to meet this thing face to face.”

Heart beats pounded on the eerily silent mountain. Inuyasha had drawn and transformed his sword.

“Just be careful, we have to protect Momma and Souta too.”

“Yeah yeah, lets see what the hell this thing is.”

“It's here...” And with those words a shadow appeared on the road before them. The shadow had angry, red glowing eyes... and the figure of the woman from earlier today emerged. As she flew towards them a red beam materialized from her hands and she bought it down as if it were a sword, right at Kagome.

“Move Kagome!” Inuyasha pushed her own of the way of the attack and blocked it on his sword. The two swords crackled as they connected. Their energies clashed and gave off impressive sparks in the night. Inuyasha gave a great push and sent her backwards.

“Kagome! YOU WILL DIE!” The angry shadow shouted at them as she landed and jumped into another attack.

“What the hell?! You know her?” Inuyasha blocked the next swing and again repelled it. Kagome shook her head.

“I haven't seen her before today.” While she was speaking she tried to back off from the fight but that woman kept aiming only for her.

“Then why the fuck is she so determined to kill you?” He made the woman's sword slide off the edge of his Tessaiga. This served the purpose of throwing off her balance which Inuyasha took advantage of to pull back a fist and throw a devastating left hook.

“Ahg.” The woman hit the road and slid across it. She groaned.

“Keh, pretty good fight... Oi, Kagome, where's the jewel?” Kagome sweat dropped, in the excitement of the fight she had forgotten to look. Focusing on the woman she tried to locate the shikon.

“It's on her wrist! It's the same hand as she was using to make that red sword.”

“Alright. Time to claim a jewel...” As he approached the woman sat up and her hands started glowing.

“Damn you. Is it not enough you bewitched Tenchi, will you not even fight your own battles? Coward!”

As she finished shouting the glow around her hands condensed and she threw it at Inuyasha. He did the smart thing and dodged it but as soon as it hit the ground it exploded.

“Arg! What the fuck!?” As Inuyasha dodged the woman advanced on Kagome again with her sword out.

“What are you talking about? I would never hurt Tenchi.” Kagome pleaded with the woman trying to keep some distance. Unfortunately the woman was not giving her any space.

“Liar, you will die!” Kagome shielded herself the best she could with her bare arms as the woman slashed down.

“Kagome!!!” Inuyasha was running towards her but couldn't get to her in time. Kagome closed her eyes... Please let it be fast.
