Chapter 7

Kimi ran fastly up towards the mountain where she lived. "Welcome back Kimi!" Ginsha yelled at her.

"Hey! Anything happen while I was away?" She questioned.

"Nope." Haishi answered.

"Okay. I'm going to the hot springs. Be back soon." Kimi yelled then ran towards the hot springs near the mountain.

Kimi sighed to herself as she caught sight of the springs. "Oh I cannot wait to bathe." Kimi commented as she came to a halt.

"I tell you Koga this is not our home." A voice said through the forest.

'Who the hell is intruding on our territory?' Kimi thought.

"I tell you it is." Another voice replied.

"I say it isn't." Kimi told the voices.

"Who the hell is there?" Koga asked before stepping out to find a girl that looked for the most part like him.

"My name is Kimi and you are?" She asked.

"Uh. Koga." Koga replied.

"Sorry boys but if your lost then this is not the clan you belong to. We are an all female tribe up here." Kimi explained.

"This is the northern territories. Isn't it?" Ginta asked her.

"Aye. That it is." Kimi replied.

"I'm confused." Hakkaku commented.

"Doesn't take much." Koga commented.

"Maybe we can help." A voice that was recognizable as Inutaisha's said.

Inutaisha stepped out into the open. "Sorry to intrude Kimi. Ginsha informed me you were down here."

"WOAH!" Koga cried out as he looked at the female version of Inuyasha.

Inutaisha turned her eyes on Koga. "By the looks of it you just met your counterpart."

"Counterpart?" They both asked at the same time.

Inuyasha stepped out finally and repeated. "Counterpart."

"Woah!" Kimi yelled as she saw the two standing together.

Inutaisha began to chuckle lightly. "Look we need to talk." She told them.

"About what? This is way too weird." Koga commented.

"How about you explain it to Koga and I will explain it to Kimi?" Inuyasha said as he noted that he better keep himself away from Koga and Kimi away from Inutaisha.

"Okay. Come on Koga. We're having a talk." Inutaisha said as she grabbed his hand and led him away. "Okay here's the deal. You and your friends got transported to our dimension. We think that Naraka and Naraku have something to do with this." Inutaisha explained.

"Naraku. That bastard." Koga commented.

"If we can find out how they got you here we can probably send you all back." Inutaisha said to him.

"Sounds reasonable enough." Kimi intervened.

"Inuyasha, I need to see my sister. Why don't you take Koga and Kimi back to the village. I will meet up with you later." Inutaisha told him.

"Okay. Be careful. If Koga is here then Sesshoumaru is probably here too." Inuyasha said to her.

"Right." Inutaisha said then bounded off to search for her sister.

After a few hours of searching Inutaisha finally caught her sister's scent. As well as another familiar one. She slowed her pace as she came to a clearing and heard her sister and another speaking. She hid behind a tree while peeking. "I thought I smelled a familiar scent recently." Sessha commented.

"He must be here as well as his friends." Another voice said.

Inutaisha took a deep breath then stepped out from her hiding place. Immediately her sister noticed her and turned in her direction. "Hello Sessha."

"Inutaisha. What are you doing here?" Her sister replied in an almost hateful tone.

"I haven't come to fight sister. We need to talk." Inutaisha explained.

"You didn't want to talk to me before, why do you want to talk to me now?" Sessha questioned her sister curiously.

"Well. I think we need to talk about calling a truce for a little while at least and concentrate on defeating our enemies." Inutaisha told her.

"Why should we do that?" Sessha asked in a sarcastic tone.

"God for once can you not just shut your damn trap up and listen. Sometimes I feel I am talking to a damn wall!" Inutaisha growled while making a fist.

"I don't make time for you it's the other way around." Sessha told her while looking the other way.

"I don't think so. I don't come at your beck and call. So back off." Inutaisha said through gritted teeth. Sessha did not reply to her comment. "Boy what was I thinking coming all the way down here to call a truce. I must be out of my mind. Thinking that the one person who could actually MAKE a difference could HELP! What was I thinking?"

"You act a lot like Inuyasha." A male voice said to her.

"I suppose that was a compliment." Inutaisha replied in an angry tone.

"More or less." He replied.

"I'm going to take a guess, you must be Sesshoumaru. Nice to meet you I suppose." Inutaisha assumed.

"Correct. Where is my brother?" Sesshoumaru questioned her.

"Back at the village. I can take you there if you want." Inutaisha
offered.

"If you don't mind." Sesshoumaru commented as he stood up.

"I'll meet you there. I'll take the children somewhere safe. I have a friend who would be willing to house them for a bit." Sessha interrupted.

"Fine. Lets go." Inutaisha told Sesshoumaru as she turned around and began to walk to the village.
