The girl who crossed over time and the boy who was just sealed [Page 4/7]

Capture, recognition, and an acquaintance's return.




The villagers gossip:
It's a girl wearing a strange kimono!/Is she a foreigner?
Could it be war again? /Right before planting season? They are short on men-power.
A fox in disguise?/
Much better than war.

Kagome sees that many have hair-knots, and wonders...
What is this place?

Priestess Kaede-sama arrives.
But to Kagome, it's just another strange person. Miko Kaede sprinkles some stuff at Kagome.
Why are they doing this?



Kaede thought that she must be a youkai or a mononoke as she was at Pup-Ear's forest. A villager says that she must be a spy from another country, but Kaede intervenes.: There is no reason to attack this town.
We are barely
surviving as it is.
 
Kaede sees Kagome's...

...expression.

And wants to see
her face more clearly.
Try to look more serious, Kagome! That's better!

You resemble... Kikyou-oneesama! Nighttime.

Kaede stews some food, and pours some in a bowl. 
For Kagome!:
 This looks tasty!
Thank you very much! 

Kaede apologizes for the earlier treatment. 
Many wars have struck the
area recently, and only young people are left.




Kagome:
Um...isn't this place Tokyo?

Kaede:
Tokyuu? I haven't heard of it before. Is that your country?

Kagome:
Um..well..I kinda want
to get back home. 
But how am I supposed
to go back...

Kaede remembers
long ago...

Quoth Kikyou:
This...this Shikon no Tama, burn it with my remains!
Reminiscing into the fire, Kaede thinks:
It has been 50 years since.
CW? Could it be?


Yes, I think it's her!



And she's gone quite insane, thrashing apart the villager's houses.

Someone rings the warning bell and people rush past Kaede's hut.
What's going on!?
What's going on?



Whoosh!



And here's the lady now!
 


'she's the kind they'd like to flaunt and take to dinner...' Villagers launch fire arrows,but...
A swish...







wipes several off. 
She launches Horsey too!
They step back, and poor Horsey hits ground. 
Without a 'please', WG asks for the Shikon no Tama, and dives on down.
