CHAPTER 1: KAGOME
o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o
Demoonica unconsciously rubbed her flat abdomen. Ever sense the news a week ago that she was pregnant, the seventeen-year-old trainer had taken up the habit of doing that, and it was about to drive Kagome crazy.
"Demoonica-chan." Kagome grabbed hold of her trainers constantly moving wrist.
Demoonica paused in her walking and looked down at her captured hand. "I was doing it again?" She sounded exasperated. "No wonder my wrist hurts in the evenings." She sighed. "Thanks Kagome... is there anything I can do with my hands to stop this?" She pulled her wrist free and wrapped her arms around her body, trying not to start rubbing the place where the baby was growing.
"Can you walk and knit at the same time?" Kagome asked with a grin. "Can you even knit? I could teach you."
"I know how to knit. I was an odd kid and learned when I was like nine."
"Back to the first question then, think you can knit and walk?"
Demoonica looked at her. "You mean you weren't kidding?"
"No way! You've got to do something with your hands, so why not make booties or a baby blanket?"
"I guess we're getting knitting supplies when we get to the city." Demoonica said in defeat.
"Where are we headed anyway?" Kagome asked, suddenly realizing that she hadn't yet been told.
Demoonica smiled. "Inuyasha areas, I'm sure your families will be happy to see you."
Kagome nodded, a smile on her face. "Wait until they see Inu-chan," She paused, "I shouldn't still call him that should I? He was so upset about being called 'chan' after he evolved."
"Yeah, but wouldn't calling him Inuyasha get confusing? How do you do that in your cities anyway, tell two Bishi apart and know who's getting spoken to when the same name is being used?"
"Nicknames work for some, but I guess we just know like how some parents can tell their identical twins apart. How about 'Yasha' for Inu-chan, because Inu-kun sounds weird to me." Kagome suggested. "And 'Inu' only fits him on the new moon."
"Sounds okay, what does Yasha mean anyway?"
Kagome thought for a moment. "Forest protector is the closest I can translate it to in English."
"Okay, that fits. Did you see that plant he has now?"
Kagome frowned. "I remember that Youko guy saying it was called a Devil's Snare and that Inu-cha- I mean that Yasha, this isn't going to be easy is it? -that Yasha was using his demon powers to control the plant. I'm not sure if I like how that sounds, but with Inu- augh! I can't do it! -with YASHA not able to use the Tetsusaiga, I don't have any choice do I?"
Demoonica couldn't help but laugh at Kagome being unable to get use to calling her son something other than Inu-chan. "Sorry." She said as she stopped giggling. "Well it seems that he is good with it, so let's just watch and see how things turn out, okay?"
"Okay. So how far is my home area anyway?"
"You must have forgotten how it looks, because we've been inside the border for more than an hour."
Kagome stopped walking and looked around. "Eh, heh-heh, I guess it has changed a lot with the world shifts." She said with a blush. "And you shouldn't be walking non-stop for hours on end should you?" She crossed her arms and sounded like she had went back into 'mother' mode again.
"Why not? You did for most of your pregnancy."
"I'm also technically older than you, besides, I was use to it."
"And I'm not use to traveling by foot all day, every day, by now?"
"Point." Kagome sweat-dropped. "How far is town then?"
"Maybe another half of an hours walk. Hey, what's that up there?" Demoonica pointed to the small bundle of white beside the path.
Kegome's eyes widened. "A... a Chibi?" She jogged over to the small form, leaning down. "No, he's not a Chibi." She turned the young Bishounen over, gasping in surprise when she saw his bruised and cut face. Demoonica caught up to them just as the boy's eyes fluttered open.
"Not gon'a loose." He mumbled and he felt the ground beside of him for something. "My scythe..."
Demoonica saw the item some feet way, half hidden in the bushes, she collected it. "What happened?"
As if finally noticing the two females, the young man scooted out away from Kagome and stood up, a barrier forming around him, though it was obviously weak. "Another trainer." He glared at Demoonica. "That bastard didn't even keep me!"
"Huh?" Demoonica tilted her head to the side. "Your trainer abandoned you?"
Hakudoshi looked at her, then to his death scythe in her hands. "Give it back!" He commanded and held out his hand as if he thought Demoonica would listen.
Demoonica looked at the scythe in her hands. "No. I don't think I'll be doing that."
He glared harder at Demoonica, then to Kagome. "I'll fight you! Then you have to give it back!" He looked back at Demoonica as he declared this.
Kagome frowned. Reaching back she pulled free her bow and an arrow. A moment later the young Bishounen was pinned to the nearest tree behind him, an arrow through his shoulder, blood staining his white clothes red.
"Kagome!"
"What?! He wanted a fight, it's not my problem that he's already beat up so badly he can't keep a proper barrier up!" Kagome stood, her hands on her hips, one hand holding her bow.
"Did you have to put an arrow through him?"
"Well..." Kagome shrugged.
Demoonica shook her head. "Was that a sealing arrow?"
"Why?"
"Because he keeps getting shocked when he tries to remove it."
Kagome whipped her head around just in time to see just that happen. "Hey! Stop that!"
Demoonica sighed. "Hold still." At first it looked like she was going to pull the arrow out of his shoulder, but instead she pulled an empty Bishiball from her belt and tapped it against his uninjured shoulder.
"What? Hey!" Hakudoushi was pulled into the Bishiball, leaving the arrow stuck in the tree. In Demoonica's hand it shook, the button on the front beeping red. It shook, once... twice... three times, then with a faint dinging sound it came to a stop, clearly closed.
Demoonica's BishiGear announced the capture. "Hakudoushi of the Inuyasha anime. Stage San. Hakudoushi is Naraku's detachment, created while Naraku was undergoing his transformation into a 'true demon' at Mount Hakurei. He is the embodiment of Naraku's human heart. Of all of his incarnations, Naraku treasures Hakudoushi the most, as his life depends on Hakudoushi's well being. As a Chibi, they have the power to go into the darkness of people's hearts, using the host's abilities as their own. As a San, they also gain the power to read the minds of the dying. Many are know to carry death scythes and/or ride on the demon horse known as Entei. Do you wish to nickname Bishounen?"
"No nickname. Well, he didn't seem evil, just upset to me." Demoonica said as she pushed the button on the Bishiball and called Hakudoushi back out. "C'mon out Hakudoushi!"
The San stage Bishounen appeared in the middle of the path, his hand holding the wound on his shoulder. "What, checked your Dex and found out I wasn't good enough for you too?" He hissed at her through his pain.
Demoonica shook her head. "I guess that's what you were talking about when you said I was 'another trainer', but no, I don't use my Dex to see where your abilities are rated. I don't care. Here," She handed his scythe to Kagome, "hold this."
Demoonica scrolled through the Hoi Poi Capsules stored in her BishiGear, retrieving the one that held the medical supplies. From it she handed him a Hi-Potion. "Drink this." As he drank the liquid, she pulled the layers of his cloths back away from the arrow wound in his shoulder. She cleaned the wound, then watched as the potion did it's job of making it heal faster. Soon all that was left was a pink scar half the size of a dime. She looked up at him, noting that all of the bruises and cuts had healed with out leaving any marks behind. "There," She said, "how does that feel?"
"Itchy." He answered automatically. "Hey-"
Demoonica smiled. "Looks like the bond is kicking in already."
"The what?" Purple eyes looked at her in confusion.
"The Bishiball creates a connection between the trainer and the Bishi caught. I wouldn't recommend getting more than ten or so feet away from me for the rest of the day, while the bond settles in, ja?"
"Hm." He looked at her for a moment, then nodded.
Demoonica smiled. "Good. It's nice to meet you Hakudoushi, I'm Demoonica Darkmoon."
When they arrived at the city it was nearing noon, Kagome, Inuyasha, and Inu-chan (who was now going by Yasha) were headed to Kagome's family home first, then they would visit Inuyasha's family, before returning that evening to the Hotel and Demoonica.
"Are you sure you don't want to come with us?" Kagome asked once again. Demoonica let Inuyasha out of his ball, then Inu-chan, she also seemed to not be use to calling the now San staged black haired Inuyasha by 'Yasha'.
"Kagome-chan, you know that a trainer in the city makes the Bishi on edge. I'll just spend the time setting up the communication spheres and chatting up Hakudoushi." She pointed to the demon boy, who was checking out the reflection of his new scar in the nearest shop window.
"You know, you're right, he doesn't seem evil." Kagome rolled her eyes. "Next thing you know, we'll meet a Sesshoumaru who serves tea and scones." They laughed at that, then Kagome pulled her husband and son down the street.
"Oi! Hakudoushi!"
He jumped. "Uh?"
Demonica laughed. "Why don't you show me around, ja?"
A pause, then a nod.
"We'll start with the closest clothing shop, I can't have you running around in bloody clothes any longer than you have too."
Surprise. Hakudoushi hadn't even noticed the dark stain, or the arrow hole in his clothing. It hadn't seemed important. Now this dark haired trainer, his new trainer, was pointing it out. Suddenly her hand moved forward, holding out his scythe. "I'm going to trust that you don't use this, now that I've caught you. And don't even try getting into my head, I've built up an immunity to such tricks."
He took his scythe from her, a small frown on his face. Still he tried to find his way into her mind through the darkness in her heart, but found that he couldn't.
Surprise, again. This girl was full of those so it seemed. Again he nodded, unless he was yelling Hakudoushi felt words weren't often needed and this girl seemed to understand the meaning behind every small thing he did, words or not. "Fine."
The day passed quickly, Hakudoushi learning to read his trainer's movements while she wasn't watching him, then again she had stopped him from making a mistake on one of the 'things' he was helping her set up and at the time she had her back turned to him, maybe she had eyes in the back of her head. That wasn't odd for a demon, was that odd for a human? Hakudoushi pondered the question for a short time, never coming up with an answer. Perhaps he would ask, perhaps he would not. Heh.
As Demoonica headed back to the hotel at the end of the day, Hakudoushi found it odd to not be going home when his home was so nearby.
"Hey! What took you so long?" Kagome asked as Demoonica opened the door to her hotel room.
"Kagome-chan?"
"Hey, wench. Don't forget us!" Inuyasha complained. His dark haired son stood beside of him nodding, but it didn't last long as his still childish happiness overtook him and he rushed over to hug Demooinca.
"D-chan!"
Demoonica laughed and hugged the young San. "I'm happy you're back too, Yasha."
He looked up at her with a big smile, his black dog ears perking up. "Yasha! D-chan, you didn't call me Inu-chan!"
Demoonica couldn't help but pat the San staged Bishounen between his fuzzy ears. The difference between him and his father was like that between night and day. "I kept correcting myself all day, kiddo."
"Thank you. I'm too big to have 'chan' tacked onto my name!" His ears drooped. "Can you help mama stop calling me that?" He whispered to Demoonica, causing her to laugh again.
"I can try." She whispered back. "So Kagome, why are you back so soon? I half thought that I'd arrive to a note saying you were spending the night with one or the other of your families."
Kagome shrugged. "I don't know, Inu-chan spent most of the time playing with my younger brother and his video games. I guess it gave us more time to catch up with our families without all the interruptions."
"Ah, I see." She looked back to Hakudoushi, she hadn't introduced him to anyone yet. "Yasha, this is Hakudoushi." She said as she pushed the white haired, purple eyed San staged demon toward Yasha. "He's not much older than you and he's my newest Bishi, could you help him settle in?" She'd have to work on getting Kagome to see her son as a responsible teen, so what better way than to put him in charge of befriending the too quiet Hakudoushi.
Yasha smiled. "Hi!" And there was his happy childishness again. "Mama's little brother gave me a game, you gotta play it!" He grabbed Hakudoushi, pulling him over to the TV and the game system hooked up to it and began to explain how it worked to the other young demon boy. Yasha didn't have the same problem with modern technologies that most Inuyasha's had, one of the many differences Demoonica was beginning to see.
