'Thoughts'

Day ?? (continued)

	"Move aside," the dog-eared guy repeated.
"Why should I?" I stood my ground.
	"What do you want?" Rachel asked, flanking me and started 
to morph, brown fur sprouting all over her body. Dog-man 
tightened his grip on his sword as Rachel finished morphing 
grizzly bear. Rachel reared up on her hind legs, but Raven was 
quicker to actually act.
	"Azerath Metrion ZINTHOS!" she said. Black energy 
surrounded the sword, and the blade was wrenched from Dog-
man's grip. It flew through the air and landed about three yards 
away with the blade in the ground. To my amazement, the sword 
changed. It took on a more "classic" appearance. 'Good, he's been 
disarmed.' I thought. 
	"Hand it over, NOW!"
	"Hand what over?" I replied.
	"Don't play dumb." At that point, something crossed my 
mind. I took the strange pink fragment back from Ax.
	"Is dis what ya want?" I asked. Dog-man made a desperate 
grab for it, but he wasn't fast enough. "I think dat's a 'yes.'"
	"Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!" He shouted, swiping his claws, 
seemingly at nothing.
	"Azerath Metrion ZINTHOS!" A black bubble surrounded 
us, blocking the attack. 
	"Whadoya want?" I asked. A girl, about fifteen, stepped 
forward. She was wearing a white shirt and a green miniskirt. 
Then, I noticed her companions. A woman wearing a pink and red 
kimono with an oversized boomerang strapped to her back. A man 
wearing a purple "toga" over a black robe. He had a piece of 
purple cloth on his right hand and forearm as well as a string of 
beads. What looked like a cross between a small boy and a fox 
and a black and white kitten with two tails. Then, Dog-guy, his 
sword retrieved, moved in for another attack.
	"Inuyasha, SIT!" the girl shouted. A necklace the dog-guy, 
obviously Inuyasha, glowed. Then he crashed to the ground, 
leaving a perfect crater shaped like himself.
	"What was that for, Kagome?!" he said, annoyed. "They have 
a jewel shard."
	"But it hasn't been used. Besides, they're not even from this 
era." Kagome answered as if this settled the matter. 'How does 
she know when we're from?'
