Youkai Yura of the Hair [Page 1/7]

Memories, sealing, and answers.


Hey, remember Yura?
She speaks playfully and cutsey;
now in possession of the one shard.

Well, she's a hair-weaving gymnast and youkai,

who tried killing our girl, Kagome.
On reflex, she arched back,
to fall into a passage between two worlds.Yura thus tried knifing her.

She  puppeteers people using hair.Oh yes,
Inuyasha must not forget ...
...where he hid Kaede.
The title card! The Higurashi shrine! A dragon statue-thing!




  And inside:
Mama:
Father, can what Kagome told us be really true?

Souta:
It's true! I saw a monster come out of the well and take her!
Grampa gets the chance to tell a story!:
According to the legend passed down in our shrine,
The Bone-Eater's Well is a well that mysteriously cleaned away the dead bodies of monsters.

We next see him boarding up the well



and putting ofuda-type stuff over top.



This should do it!



Kagome:
Eh? You sealed it?


Grampa:
Yes, I sealed the well with strong magic scrolls and put a ward on it.
The well will never open again.


No...that mystical world closed off?
In that world, Inuyasha runs through the forest! Stopping to sniff!
Multiple sniffs!:
There's no doubt about it, it's her!
He heads to the well.

That girl's clothes...that girl... did she really go back?It's here!

Back to modern Tokyo!

Kagome:
Ahh...there's really no place like home...
It's like a dream; being at the feudal age moments ago..Her mind takes us through some flashbacks.

 It was the demon crow that took the jewel...

Kaede plays in her head: You must work together and restore the Shikon no Tama!

Yura also:
Oh no! Look at what you did to the Shikon no Tama.

Kagome:
That Yura...who was she, anyway? She must also be after the jewel..
If Inuyasha finds out I lost the shard, he'll go nuts...


Inuyasha joins her thoughts: I don't need YOU!
I can do this myself!


Kagome:
Hmmph. That's right.
The almighty Inuyasha doesn't need ME around...

A clap of her hands and it's decided:
Okay! I'll forget everything! There's no way I'm going back there anyway.
Mama calls in that a friend's on the phone, and that dinner's starting. 
I'm coming!
Ah, the necessities of home.
