"Ok we need to come up with a good plan to defeat that old ghoul. You
have any ideas?" Ranma asked Inuyasha who was grumbling curse words to
Ranma over having his hair pulled. "Why should I even help you at all!? I
don't give a damn about you! To me you're just a little bastard who got me
to get over here by pulling me by the hair! I'm not going to help you at
all!" Inuyasha said and then crossed his arms like a child. "Aw, quit
acting like a baby. Besides the sooner you help me get back to my own time,
the sooner you get rid of me and everybody else" Ranma said. The thought of
all of them leaving, almost brought a frown to Inuyasha's face but he
managed to hold it in. "Ok then, lets figure out a plan!" Inuyasha replied
and the two began to devise a plan.
"Aren't you worried about fighting the power of Ranma and the half
demon Inuyasha?" Sango asked Cologne who was sitting their sipping tea from
a cup in one hand and a pipe in the other. "I'm not worried at all. You all
seem to forget that Happy and I used to live in this era." Cologne told the
group. Half of the group smacked their heads saying duh while the other
half gaped at how long this woman could have really lived. "Um Cologne,
have you really lived that long?" Kagome asked in the sweetest voice. "You
know as well as I do that it's not polite to ask a woman of her age!"
Cologne replied with a look of shock on her face. "Right" Kagome said with
a smile on her face. She then thought to herself wow, she has lived that
long!
"I wonder what those two are planning over there." Ukyo said with a
look of dismay to the people she was cooking for. "Who knows who cares? Is
it ready yet? Your food is so good!" Shippo said with drool running down
his face. "I must agree with Shippo. Your food is quite excellent." Miroku
told Ukyo who blushed and said "You really like it that much?" "Of course I
do." Miroku replied and grabbed Ukyo's hand. She further blushed until she
found herself moving towards Miroku's face. She would have made contact but
unfortunately Sango threw her boomerang bone at Miroku and he had his face
planted into the grill. What just came over me Ukyo thought to herself as
she went back to her almost burned food.
"So do we have the plan down pat?" Inuyasha asked Ranma who shook his
head in agreement and started to walk back over to the group, Inuyasha
trailing behind. "Well are you ready for the fight now?!" Cologne asked the
two boys with a stunned look on her face like it would take them three days
to get a plan together. (If it hadn't have been the thought of Ranma
leaving then it probably would've taken 3 days) "This should be an
interesting fight" Kagome said as the rest of the group turned their
attention to the three fighters.
"Well whenever you're ready just come at me" Cologne said and then
stood on her staff and waited. "Ok you're move" Ranma said to Inuyasha who
replied with "Right!" and lunged toward Cologne. Before Inuyasha could even
reach Cologne though, she threw a scroll out of her garb and threw it on
Inuyasha's head. It sparked and pain soared throughout Inuyasha's head and
he fell to the ground. "That will teach you not to mess around with this
old lady" Cologne said. Inuyasha got up, replied with a smirk, and said "I
think you might want to look behind you right about now!" But before
Cologne could even react, her arms were pinned by Ranma.
"Clever son-in-law. Using Inuyasha as a diversionary tactic and
grabbing me from behind. Didn't that hurt though Inuyasha? That ancient
scroll has been in my family for generations to ward off demons." Cologne
said and asked while still pinned to the ground. "Sorry granny but time
does wear all things away and unfortunately paper is one of those things!"
Inuyasha said still having the same smirk on his face. "Well I'll be a
chinese uncle. I underestimated the two of you. You're a pretty powerful
duo. Unfortunately I'm going to have to get serious now" Cologne said and
with that threw Ranma into Inuyasha and they both toppled onto each other
in disbelief.
"Always remember son-in-law that I am not a foe who is easily beaten!"
Cologne said as a huge battle aura began to engulf her body. "Well it's a
good thing we have plan B!" Ranma said and then asked Inuyasha "What's plan
B?" "Plan B is to fight the crap out of an old woman!" Inuyasha replied
cracking his hands in preparation for the ensuing fight. "That's always a
good plan to me!" Ranma said with a smirk and growing battle aura. Then
there was silence as everyone and everything stopped from the great fight
that was about to begin.
"YAH!" Inuyasha yelled and then leaped onto Cologne using his talons
to try and put her down. Cologne quickly dodged and replied with a
"Chestnuts Roasting Over An Open Fire" technique. Inuyasha had some
difficulty avoiding the fast and furious blasts. Ranma then came from
behind and tried once again to get her in a death grip but she knew it was
going to happen this time and swung her pole behind herself to hit Ranma in
the face. Inuyasha took this time to regain his advantage over the fight,
which he did. Blasting his claws in every direction and then he finally
shouted "IRON REAPER, SOUL STEALER!" and ripped one of the pockets on
Cologne's outfit to avoid being sliced in half. The contents of the pocket
were also sliced into three pieces and one of the things that happened to
be in that pocket. Sweat dropped from everyone's faces as they now saw the
already crumpled mirror now in three irreplaceable pieces. Immediately
Kagome and Akane both yelled "SIT!" to Inuyasha and got what he deserved.
"Now we'll never get home!" Ranma whined as Akane was putting band-
aids on his face. "Quit whining Ranma! I'm sure there are plenty of ways to
time travel in this era. We all just need to find them" Akane told Ranma
who didn't seem to be listening. Why do I even bother she thought to
herself and continued to put band-aids on Ranma's face.
Meanwhile a giant wasp in the trees flew out and started towards a far
direction. When it reached it's destination, a large castle, it flew into a
window and talked to a sinister looking man with long black hair. "New
people with Inuyasha eh? Well then we'll just have to make sure we give
them a nice warming welcome won't we? Kagura!" the man said and a figure
quickly appeared. "Yes Lord Naraku?" the figure said staring at the man.
"Send in the new recruit to welcome Inuyasha's new friends to the feudal
era" Naraku said and with a bow from the figure, it vanished into thin air
reappearing in its place was a figure with a red hood over it's face. "You
heard me.Go!" Naraku said and with that the figure quickly dashed out the
window and set itself a straight path to Inuyasha and Ranma.
A/N: I'm sorry it took me so long to get another chapter up but I've just
been busy lately. I'm also sorry that I let the mirror die in such a cheap
way. I could've probably come up with something better but it is currently
late writing and I'm not to focused. Also very interesting character
relationships happening, aren't there? Also a never before created
character in the story *gasp* (I hope that's legal.) Who could this figure
be?! What impact will it have on the story!? I made it lengthy so either
expect a while again for the next long chapter or wait a little while for a
short chapter. Whichever one. I also tried to answer some of your questions
in the story so I am paying attention to what you're saying. Anyway QCRC
are greatly appreciated!
