Burst from underneath the water Kagome swims around in the little pond. Another day goes by making it their third day being in the Feudal era. She misses home. She misses her family and her friends. Not only that Kyo isn’t the person she thought he was. Ever since they came here she thought that he would get closer, been that they are thrown in this situation. No, he seems to be enjoying being here. He hasn’t thought once about returning to their time. Even when Kagome brings up going back home he just ignores it and goes to hang out with Inuyasha. That’s another thing Inuyasha tried to kill them not to long ago, but the two have been acting like they are best friends. Joking and talking to each other, going off at night without telling her it’s starting to get on her nerves. That’s not even the tip of the iceberg, the meeting Kaede had with them flashes through Kagome’s mind.
*
All three were sitting around in Kaede’s hut. Kagome wanted to go home, she wanted to place everything that happened in the back of her mind. Casting a glance to the other two she frowns at how they are talking to each other. Inuyasha is talking about something stupid survival instincts.
“I don’t understand why you are listening to this.” Kagome said with a huff, which caused both of them to stare at her. “I mean we are leaving here soon any way. I can’t wait to get back home and have a hot shower.” She sighed happily a small smile played across her face as she let herself drift. She turned back to them both to see them staring at her. “What?”
“I’m not going back.” The teen said calmly.
Kagome stared at him blankly for second before her whole face morphed into shock. “What do you mean you’re not going back. Think about everything you are leaving behind.”
“What am I leaving behind?” He asked still calm, which is something Kagome always hated. Kyo is good at hiding his emotions when he doesn’t want someone to know something. “I lost the only family that I had. This is where I was born. I want to learn about where my family came from.”
Kagome opened her mouth to say something before Kaede walked into the hut just. “Sorry to keep ye waiting. I will make this quick. It wasn’t Kagome’s arrow that shattered the jewel, the talon of the crow shattered it. I don’t know how many shards have scattered all over. They need to be found and brought back together. Ye three will have to find them and bring them back together. One shard is powerful enough to make any person almost invincible.” Inuyasha and Kyo nodded and Kagome looks at them in shock. Kaede looked at all three of them before pulling out a piece of paper. “Kyo here’s that map you asked for.” The teen took it and stared down at it. “This will lead directly to the old Kimura village, I even marked some villages that are friendly to Hanyōs.”
Kyo nodded as he looked down at the paper with Inuyasha looking over his shoulder. They both missed the glare Kagome was throwing at them.
*
Diving back under the water Kagome tries to get that memory out of her head. She wants to go back home not go running around the feudal era. Swimming back to the shore the she moves over to the clothes that Kaede gave her clothes to change into similar to the older woman’s. Hearing rustling coming from behind her she turns around to see Inuyasha sitting on a tree branch staring at her. A blush spreads across Kagome’s face before she screams covering herself off and shouting. “Sit!”
Inuyasha slams to the ground with a groan before Kagome quickly gets dressed. On she is done Kyo comes walking out the bushes looking at the downed Inuyasha with a shake of his head. “I told you she was going to do that.”
“He was peeping on me.” Kagome says glaring at Inuyasha.
“I wasn’t peeping on you.” Inuyasha groans out slowly getting up. “I was trying to steal the shard.”
Kagome didn’t believe that and just huffs. It’s not long after that Kaede comes walking through the bushes, looking at all three. “I’m glad to see that you three are getting along it’s going to help you on your teamwork to find the jewel.”
“It’s not like we need her.” Inuyasha says crossing his arms. He then points a thumb at Kyo. “He can see the jewels just fine and at least he can defend himself.”
“Not that well.” Kyo sighs out.
“Anyway, you three need to work together. Now let’s get back to the village.”
Kaede starts walking back towards the village with Inuyasha following behind her. Kyo stares at Kagome and motions for her to come on. The girl stares at the other teen before she moves to follow after him. They were almost at the village when Kyo stops and looks off into the distance a frown on his face.
“What’s wrong?” Kagome asks causing Kaede and Inuyasha to turn and look at them.
He notices something shimmer in the air before it’s completely gone. “I thought I saw something shimmer.” Shaking his head, he turns back to them with a smile. “I think I’m starting to get paranoid.”
They all stare at him before they begin walking off. Kyo looks back into the forest. He stares a couple more seconds trying to sense anything before a frown spreads across his face before he moves to catch up with the others.
*
Meanwhile in a little hut a pale skinned woman with dark green hair which is in a fan like bob and reddish violet eyes. She’s sitting on a pile of skulls while holding one in her hands and coming it’s hair with a red comb. She’s wearing a black sleeveless tunic that is cut off mid-way down her thighs and exposes her cleavage. She has a thin black gloves that goes all the way up to her mid-arm. A bright yellow sash is wrapped around her waist. Black clothes wraps around her feet as foot guards that goes up mid-way to her thigh.
“Do, you feel that?” She asks the skull a smile spreading across her face. “I sense the jewel.” She chuckles. “Why don’t we go and retrieve it?”
She giggles as she combs the hair.
*
The small group makes it back to the village. As soon as they enter the village a village woman rushes up to Kaede. Something about her daughter falling ill and needing the Miko’s help. Sending a quick glance to the trio before she walks after the woman. The two Hanyōs sigh out before they start making their to Kaede’s hut. Kagome though doesn’t move. “What’s your problem with me.” Both males stop before they turn to look at Kagome. “You’ve been rude to me ever since I pulled you off that tree. Is it because I look like Kikyō?”
Inuyasha scuffs before he looks at her. “You may look like Kikyō, but you most definitely not her. Kikyō wouldn’t have left a friend behind.”
Kagome looks at Kyo who is looking off in the distance. “I came back though.”
“Yea after everything was taken care of. He risked his life to protect you and you didn’t care. Second, thing what human girl goes out into the woods at night when they don’t know anything that goes around at night. You could have been killed and how do you think he would have felt. You treat him like he’s your fucking boyfriend when getting mad when he so much as interact with someone else.”
“What do you mean?” Kagome blushes looking at Kyo who is still looking off in the distant.
“I don’t have time for this.”
Embarrassment that Kagome was filling is quickly replaced with anger. “What about you?” Inuyasha looks at her with a raised eyebrow. “It’s not even two days ago that you tried to kill us for the Jewel. Now, you are acting like you and Kyo are best buddies. You’re just using us to get the jewel because you can’t see it.” Inuyasha just scuffs. She then turns to Kyo her glare getting darker. “And you.” Kyo stares at her in confusion. “Ever since we came here you’ve been acting completely different. How can you stand here and have conversations with the person who was literally trying to kill you and now you acting like you are best friends? Then you are smiling at these girls and letting them fawn over you. You even thinking about staying here when you have everything back in our time. You are welling to throw away your whole life away. Just because you had some little vision and believed you talked to her. She’s dead Kyo you need to understand that and stop trying to hold onto something that doesn’t exist.”
Kyo stares at her for a second emotionless before he turns and walks away. Kagome watches him walk away before she turns to a glaring Inuyasha. “Definitely, not Kikyō.”
Kagome glare settles on Inuyasha before she turns and marches towards the forest. ‘Let’s see how they act when I go back to my own time.’
*
Moving through the forest Kagome comes to the clearing where the well and pulled to a stop when she notices black hair surrounding the well.
“What is this?”
She moves forward and touches one of the only to pull it back when it cuts her hand.
“That must have really hurt.” A sing song voice comes from behind Kagome causing the girl to turn around to see a woman sitting on a tree. Kagome takes a step backwards towards the well planning to use it as an escape. The woman flicks her wrist and one of the strands of her hair wraps around her chest and pulls out the pouch holding the jewel shard. The woman dumps it out and dumps it in her hand only to frown at the single. “You shattered the jewel. How could you.”
Pulling out her sword she charges at Kagome determined to kill the girl. Seeing this a scream escapes Kagome as she falls backwards into the well. Landing on the well the woman tosses her sword down the well hoping to impale the girl. The woman begins to pull her sword back up and frowns when she doesn’t see any blood. “Awe poo she got away.” She then hold s the shard up and smiles. “But I have one, I’m sure I can find the others.”
*
Back at the village Kaede is staring down at the child and she can’t figure out what’s wrong with her. She seems to be sleeping, but no matter what Kaede she does won’t wake up. She Kaede notices something shimmering. She narrows her eyes at it and notices that a strand of hair is attached to the girl. Turning around to the mother her lone eyes widen when she notices that the woman is holding a knife and coming at her with it.
*
Inuyasha and Kyo are sitting outside Kaede’s hut waiting for the old woman to return.
“Hey,” Kyo looks at Inuyasha. “You really thinking about heading to your old village?”
Kyo nods. “I really did see my grandma she says that there is something there that I need to see and if there is a possibility that could be true I have to go.”
Inuyasha understands completely Kyo is coming from. The best times of his life was when his mom was around and if there was something she left of him than Inuyasha would do anything to see it. Before he could say anything they both here someone shuffling towards them. They both look up to see a few women walking towards them, but something seems off about them causing both to stand and be on alert. Kyo opens his mouth to say something only for the women to lung at them with knives.
They both dodge out the way and Inuyasha glares at the women. “I knew it was all an act. They were just waiting for the perfect moment to stab us in the back.”
Kyo looks at Inuyasha before staring back at the women. He thought they actually liked him, but Inuyasha told him how both humans and Yōkai despises because they are seen as abominations and should be killed. Kyo thought it was just Inuyasha’s paranoia. Crouching down they both are ready to attack.
“Wait!” They both turn to see Kaede hobbling towards them holding her side. They both look closely and see blood soaking her hands. They move over to her and catches her just as she falls to her knees. “Don’t hurt them. They are being controlled. Look closely.” They both look and see the hair’s connected to the to the women. “She looks around and notices something. “Where’s Kagome?” She then frowns already knowing the answer.
Before either could react, they feel something wrap around them. A hiss escapes Kyo at whatever wrapping around them slices through his skin. They hear more shuffling to see the villages men walking towards them with weapons.
“We got to get out of here.” Inuyasha growls out.
Kyo nods and even that movement causes the hairs to cut into him. They both growl before slashing through and watching stands of hair fall off to the ground. Rushing over to Kaede they grab her and take off towards the forest to hide.
*
A little ways away the woman is sitting in a tree -paying with strands of hair like a puppeteer with a puppet. All the sudden the strands go limp and the woman frowns.
“Awe shucks,” She says pulling the strands towards her. As she pulls them closer she notices two things and her eyes widen. She pulls them forward and see a long pure silver strand of hair and it caught her interest. Pulling the second one towards her she pulls up a pure snow-white strand of hair. “Beautiful.” She whispers looking at the two strands. “I want more.” Pulling out the shard hidden in her cleavage she smiles at it. “And with you I’m sure they will be coming back to me soon.”
*
Night has fallen and Kyo peers through the bushes at the village. He frowns as he notices villagers walking around like mindless zombies he glances one more time at them before moving deeper into the forest back to Kaede and Inuyasha.
“They are just walking around.” He says coming back to the clearing. “Almost like someone controlling them.”
“Someone is those hairs is what is controlling them.” Kaede whispers hissing at her wound. “My sister fought a demon like this. Her name was Yura she used hair at the time to control, but I thought Kikyō had killed her.”
“Well she obviously didn’t.” Inuyasha sighs placing his hands on his hips.
“You have to find Kagome.”
“What!” Inuyasha shouts looking at Kaede. “You must be going senile in that old age. She abandoned us again.”
“Be that as it may she is just a child and she could be helpful to ye both.” She says turning to look at Kyo and freezes noticing the emotionless stare he is giving.
“You don’t trust us.” It’s not a question, more of a statement and it has Inuyasha looking at the other before looking back at the older woman. “Kagome is a safety net for you. With those beads around Inuyasha’s neck, just one word and she has Inuyasha under her control. With me though you want her around because you believe that I’m in love with her and will follow her blindly. That’s why want us to have Kagome a round.”
Kaede stares at the young man in shock. What he’s saying is true. At first. She believed that Kagome would be able to keep both of them in line. After spending time with the Kitsune she notices that he’s’ nothing like other Hanyōs or Yōkais. He has a genuine heart and with him hanging around Inuyasha she can see that he’s rubbing off on the other.
“At first that was true.” She says. Inuyasha growls while Kyo turns away from her a dark glare on his face. Kaede stares at both of them betrayal written all over their body language. “That’s not the reason why now though. It has changed. It’s not you who need to be watched.”
Both Hanyōs look at each other before they turn back to the old woman. Before Inuyasha growls out. “Than you better get talking old lady.”
*
Running through the forest with a look of determination on their faces they arrive at the well and Kyo sees hair all around. It’s also where the scent of Kagome stops.
“Yura’s hair is here.”
Inuyasha growls as he cracks his knuckles. “Let’s go and bring her back.”
They look at the well before jumping down.
*
Back in the forest Kaede’s lies half-buried looking up at the sky. “I know that you Inuyasha and you Kyo can find the jewels, but you will need help. There are evil forces out there and some of them may come in the form of people who claim to be allies.” She just sighs. “If what I believe is going on than we may be in a lot more trouble than we all have seen.”
