"Misty! Are you in here?" Ash shouted out. 'I should have paid more attention. This is all my fault.' Suddenly, Ash hears a deafening scream coming from the back. He runs in the direction, and rushes inside the tent. He sees Misty's body floating in mid-air. He looks around to see what could be causing this....this unusualness. Ash saw this voo- doo looking woman holding a doll in the same position as Misty....and it looked like Misty too. He rushed out of the tent and to the other side. He found a small slit in the cloth and peaked inside. He found that same old woman holding Misty's doll in the air. He looked around to get a better look at the room. He looked below where Misty was floating and saw a doll laying on the floor. The only difference between this doll and Misty's was it didn't have hair.....but everything else looked almost like him. He started to piece together everything that has happened. Misty was angry at him for not paying attention to her, she had ran off to a voo-doo stand, there was a creepy woman claiming to be a voo- doo artist attacking trainers....but it didn't start until a little after Inuyasha, Kagome and all them showed up. He rushes out of the tent and towards the huge rollercoaster, where he left his friends bewildered. Kagome, Brock, Inuyasha: Did you find Misty/her/your girlfriend? Ash: She's......in......a tent.......with.......voo- doo......person.........floating......in air. Brock: ().() Kagome: What did the voo-doo woman look like? Ash: Well, from what I could tell, she had really long black hair, wore dark purple/ kinda black clothing, like a kimono, and had a very faint spider mark on the back. Inuyasha, Kagome: JUST LIKE NARAKU! Ash: I take it this 'Naraku' person isn't very nice. Well, he's got my Misty...... Everyone: Your Misty? Ash: *blush* Oh come on, it's not like no one knew about my crush on her. Brock: True! ^.^ Ash: You were the one that blabbed it to Mum. Brock: True.....*_* Ash: And Mum blabbed it to everyone we knew.... Mum: Ok, we get the point. Now don't you have a woman to save? Ash: Yes, ok now here's what we're going to do................ As Ash gives out the plan, an occational giggle was heard....mostly from Kagome. Ash: Ok, so each of us know what to do, right? Everyone: *shoves a fist in the air* Right! Ash: Ok. Let's go save Misty. Kagome and Inuyasha started trotting (like fast walking) towards the back of the tent while Deliah, Kagome's mom (whom shall be labeled as KM), Kagome's grandpa (labeled as KG), Sota, and Ash walked for the front of the tent to initiate the plan. Deliah: Ash! You big doofus! You can't afford to make a mistake like that! Sota: Besides, you promised to train me when you finished the Kanto regions. KG: Absurd! He'll become not a Pokemon Master, but a priest! KM: He'll be a lawyer! Deliah: You don't tell my son what to become, you little whenches! Ash: Just get away from me before I sick my Pikachu on you! Everyone starts hurrying away, then ducking behind a tent and watches over Ash to wait for their cue.... Ash: Oi! Families these days. Old woman: I could sense the trouble before it started. Ash: I just wish they could get away from me. How would they like it if I controlled their every move? Old woman: For a small fee I could help you with your problems. Ash: Oh really? Ash keeps up his part of the plan. Inuyasha heard the signal to start entering the tent. Kagome was to give small signals, like sending Misty's pokemon to tell Ash to stall longer. Ash knew which pokemon meant it's safe. Kagome kept a close eye on Inuyasha, and a close ear to their conversation. She saw the others behind a tent waiting for their cue. Inuyasha had just released Misty from her imprisonment when Ash's job had started to slip. The old woman was getting suspicious. Kagome could tell as well, that's when she sent Articuno into the sky which was the cue they waited for. They all came running towards Ash, and just in time too. KM: Ash! You need to quit dolly-footin' around and start your lawyer training, young man! KG: Ah, horse-phooey. He'll be a priest! Deliah: Not a priest, a Pokemon Master. He's already strong enough as it is. Ash: *whispers to old woman* See what I mean? Old woman: *whispers to Ash* Yes, I guess I could help. Sota: Big brother, you promised to train me. Ash: Are you sure you can help me? Old woman: Yes I can. Deliah: Help with what? You better tell me right now, Ashton Michael Ketchum! Ash: Mother! The old woman led Ash towards the back room. Ash: Yeah, they really bug me alot, and all because they want me to become this big famous pokemon master. I'm already the winner of 3 different regions....what more could they want from me? Old woman: I've got something that'll help. Ash: What? Old woman: Voo-doo. Ash: 'Oh no! Inuyasha better be outta there with Misty....' Ash went into the back and saw no one except the old woman, and she didn't look too happy. Old woman: Where is she?!?! Ash: 'Thank god she's safe.....' Where's who? Old woman: You little punk! You lost me a valuable person.... Ash saw the old woman's hair grow long and black, the facial features looked more like a man's face now, and the clothes changed into that which would suit an evil villan. Ash: So, I guess they call you Naraku? Naraku: Aye, I'm Naraku. Kagome and Inuyasha walk into the tent. Inuyasha with his sword drawn, and Kagome with an arrow ready. Deliah, Sota, KG, KM, and Misty all walk in behind Inuyasha and Kagome. Kagome: I knew it was him. What are you doing here, Naraku? Naraku: You think they would have figured it out by now. I put that hole there, I drew you two in here, I lured you here knowing you'd be helping these pathetic humans........... Naraku's so-called "speech" was interrupted when a purple arrow shot at his neck, which ceased his talking. Kagome: Crap! I was aiming for his head. Misty: At least now we won't have to hear his creepy voice. Ash: Misty! *he runs over to Misty and gives her a hug* Misty: Ash! *hugs back* Ash: I thought you were dead.....you're body was so still and cold. Misty: Yeah, I know. Now, let's finish him. Inuyasha with his sword, Kagome with her arrows, Sota, KG, and KM armed with rocks and bits of wood, and Ash and Misty with pokemon at the ready all turn towards where Naraku was. He was still grasping his neck. They were all about to attack when something wierd happened... Everyone saw a huge, chipped piece of a purple jewel pop out of his neck, and it almost seemed like the slightest wind made him disappear. With a gust of wind, Naraku disappeared piece by piece until they saw no more of him. Kagome and Inuyasha stood there with their mouths open. Kagome: We did it........ Inuyasha: He's gone. Do you still have the other jewel fragments? Kagome: I left them with Miroku and Sango, all but one. Inuyasha: Ok. Everyone walked outside and the night sky changed before their eyes. What was an ugly purplish-blue kinda haze was now a lovely dark blue starry sky. Kagome really started to feel homesick, she missed her era and Inuyasha's era. She looks up at the sky, deep in thought. Inuyasha looked at her with worriness. Kagome is hardly ever this deep in thought (no offense to any kagome-fans. i'm one myself. have YOU ever seen her deep in thought?), and it's starting to scare him..... Inuyasha: Kagome? Kagome: 'I can't believe we actually did it........' Inuyasha: Kagome?? Kagome: 'I wonder how Miroku is reacting.....' Inuyasha: Kagome??? Kagome: 'And Sango too? We'll find out.' Inuyasha: KAGOME!!!!!!!! Kagome: *screams* INUYASHA SIT!!!!!!!!! Inuyasha: *"sits"* Kagome: Oh, it's you. Did ya want something? Inuyasha: Yeah, for you to take these stupid beeds off my neck! Kagome: Nope, I don't think so. How else could I control you? Inuyasha walks towards the rest of the group, and joins in on the conversation. Deliah: We're so glad you're safe Misty. If Ash hadn't thought of that plan, who knows what would have happened.... Misty: Thanks Ash. Inuyasha: Glad you're ok Misty. You're not too bad for a human girl. Kagome: Glad you're safe, Misty. KG, KM, Sota: Yeah, glad you're a-ok. Misty: Thanks you guys. I'm feeling a bit tired. Anybody else feel like going home? I'm tired......... As Misty walks off, yawnind, towards the direction of Pallet, everyone looks at her bewildered. Then, they all just shook their heads, laughed a little, and followed in her direction. Soon, they're all talking and having a good time, laughing now at what had happened........... Kagome: *sigh* Inuyasha: What's the matter? Kagome: Don't you recognize this spot? Inuyasha: No......... Sota: I do! Kagome: This is the same spot where we came out of that hole. KM: You're right. I miss home too, honey. Kagome: I bet Sango, Miroku, and Shippo are all worried. about us. We haven't seen them in days..... Inuyasha: *puts comfort arm around Kagome* It'll be ok. Don't worry, we'll get back. Sota: I miss home too. KG: I wish I could go home too. No one's there to look after the shrine. Inuyasha, Kagome, Sota, KG, KM: I wish we could go back home. It was almost like someone had heard their prayers. They each felt an impulse to go into the Viridian Forest. Ash, Mist, Brock, and Deliah all followed them without knowledge as to why they suddenly stopped looked into the forest and went in. They soon found out. After a short walk, they all saw this peticular rock. It was shining a very bright purplish color. Kagome lifted the rock and it revealed a hole. Before she jumped into the hole, she turned to her new- found friends. Kagome: Thank you guys so much for taking care of us. KM: We'll miss you all very much. Sota: *walks to Pikachu* Sorry we didn't get to play little buddy. Pikachu: Pika, Pi..... Sota: Don't be sad, I'm sure I'll be able to come back. Pikachu: Pi! Sota: Thanks for your helpd, Ash. KG: Ash, for all your hard work, I have created a sutra for you. KM, Kagome, Sota: *fall over anime style* KG: What? It's a success sutra. Passed down from generations of Higurashi's................ Kagome: What's wrong Misty? Misty: *starts crying* Even though we didn't know each other very well, you were like the caring sister I never had. Kagome: *takes off her red tie from her uniform* Here, take this. I've got tons of them back at my house. Misty: *takes the tie* Thanks. I'll remember you forever. Kagome: Bye, Misty. Misty: Not a bye, see ya later. Kagome: *whispers* Tell him how you feel. I garuntee he'll return the feeling. Kagome and Misty hug. Then, everyone else hugs each other. Kagome jumps in first, then Inuyasha, Sota, KG, and KM. Misty immediately puts on Kagome's tie and whispered, 'Come back soon.' Misty turned to Ash very slowly. Misty: Ash? Ash: Yeah? It was like she reacted like she's done this a million times. She leaned in and kissed him on the lips. He was reluctant at first, maybe it was because his mother and Brock were yelling 'about time', but he soon returned the kiss. For what seemed like eternity, they finally parted and embraced each other like no tomorrow. Misty: Kagome told me to. Ash: Inuyasha told me to tell you too. Misty: They were more aware of our feelings than us. Ash: Yeah. Deliah: Misty, would you be kind enough to join us for dinner? Misty: I'd love to. Brock: Let's go to Ash's house. I don't have to leave for the gym in a few days. They all started out for Pallet town. Brock and Deliah walked ahead to give the 'kiddies' some privacy. Ash and Misty walked hand in hand until they reached their destination.................. ~~~ Sorry it took awhile. I've been updating all my stories.
