Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bouncing along, Chrys began to get bored. She decided that this was the perfect time to practice her evasive techniques, on which she had gotten rusty. The speed was slow enough for her to work on the meticulate parts, but fast enough to resemble a moderately paced battle.

Mizuho flew forward, growling at the growing buzz in her ears. "These bugs, what are they? They keep following me! They might work for that 'Naraku' bloke. All the same, I don't like them, and they pose a threat, so..." She muttered a few words. "AWAI NO JUTSU!" A blast of light obliterated all the bugs, and illuminated her to look similar to a powerful demon. "Oops...I think I overdid it..."

Chrys sighed, and thought to Mizuho, "Hold back a little, why don't you?" She then continued her techniques, dancing between rocks in intricate patterns.
"Why don't you? You're the one showing off!"
"No, I'm practicing. There's a difference."
"Whatever. Why don't you give this message to the others? There were..."
As Chrys heard the message she stopped her practicing and jumped up to Kagome and Sango. "Hey, you two. When Mizuho went ahead to scout, she saw these strange looking bugs following her. She thinks that they're Naraku's, and that they're following us, hiding in the shadows. She took out the ones ahead that were following her, but she suspects that there are more. It doesn't bode well..."

"That's horrid..." grumbled Chrys, thoroughly disgusted. "I hate bugs..."

After destroying the first bugs, many more began to swarm. Eventually, Mizuho became so annoyed that she put up a moderately strong lavender barrier around herself. "This isn't good...It's getting very dark, though it's not late at all..."
"I know. Don't go any farther; we should stay together."
"Alright then." Mizuho just floated there, annoyedly zapping a bug every once in a while.

"What the hell is it now, Kagome?" growled the annoyed dog hanyou as he returned to the group.

"We must be very careful of Naraku. He's a shape shifter and a trickster, worse than any kitsune or tanuki," warned Sango.

"The best way to defeat Naraku is to kick his a**!" said Inuyasha, raising the Tessaiga over his head.

"Thoughtful and calculating as always," sighed Sango.

Kirara mewled in agreement with her mistress.

"Because that's the best way to win! Kill Naraku!!! Kill Naraku!!!" Inuyasha goes into a killing frenzy.

"Here we go again," says Sango.

Name: Yume Akimoto
Age: 17
Species: Dog Demon
Biography: Yume was part of a large InuYoukai clan before she was separated from her small family in the midst of a war. Since the tender age of four, she has taken care of herself. Now, she wishes to be free of her many suitors, and just settle down with a worthy husband.
Attacks/Techniques/Weapons: A long sword forged from the claws of a dragon. Any who are pierced by the blade are faced with a slow, painful death, for the blade contains a lethal poison taken from the fangs of a demon snake. Yume's special technique is 'Yuki Yanagi Whirlwind'. This technique allows Yume to manipulate the yuki yanagi flower and cause them to spread a certain poisonous pollen taken from other flowers.

"Yeah, I'd better get our little friend here. Come on, Inuyasha!" She looked up at the darkening sky and frowned. "I think there's Naraku and his myasma up ahead."
