~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once again Inu-Yasha was being his arrogant self claiming he knew where he was going. Normally he would have known but this forest smelled the same to him and even looked the same in every direction you could turn in. It also was very quiet considering Miroku wasn't making any moves on Kagome. Shippou was asleep in Kagome's bike basket which she was wheeling along, the bottomless back pack was latched onto the back of the bike.
"Inu-Yasha...we've been walking in circles for hours...are you sure you know where your going?" Kagome complained as she stared at his back, getting tired of walking and tired of wheeling the bike around.
"Of course I know where i'm going! Be quiet unless you want me to leave you alone in here with the monk." he answered in his usual angry tone of voice whenever Kagome contridicted him. Kagome just sighed and shook her head.
"No. I don't want that." She muttered and glanced at Miroku, who was trying to hold his tongue while looking at Inu-Yasha's back with a rather annoyed look considering he was insulted.
Inu-Yasha just snorted and continued on his own way with the others following reluctantly behind. Moments later he paused and his dog ears pricked up and turned forwards just before he sniffed the air. He turned into a different direction and headed off.
"So, you sense something?" Miroku inquired while leaning on his staff for a moment. "Hopefully you've finally found your way out of this place because i'm getting rather tired and i'm sure the lady is too."
"I hear singing not to far away, monk. She'll probably give us directions out of this damn forest." was Inu-Yasha's answer as he continued on. Kagome giving a side glance to Miroku who was looking back at her up and down a few times. She made a face towards the sky and quickened her pace to Inu-Yasha's side.
As they went on for a time both Kagome and Miroku heard the singing as well. As soon as the sweet melody came to Miroku's ears he went into a small daze with a half smile on his face.
"That singing...is marvelous." he muttered to himself. Inu-Yasha's ears turned for a second towards the Monk's words and he nodded in agreement which was very rare, if not, never done before. Kagome sighed and muttered that she didn't think it was all to great as the two males thought it to be. After her muttered words they came to a large clearing encircled by Cherry trees. The sakura blossoms were in full bloom and a few petals fell before them. A beautiful shrine stood in the midst of the trees. Both Miroku and Inu-Yasha seemed to be impressed as they walked slowly towards the shrine. On its steps was a young priestess sweeping the stairs of dust, dirt and sakura petals.
She had golden embered hair that flowed like fire when a breeze blew gently by. Her eyes were of a deep forest green that seemed warm and calm while she sang a beautiful song. The song had no words but only pitches and melody, and it was almost haunting all at once. Kagome looked towards Inu-Yasha, who had his mout slightly open with one fang showing and his eyes locked on the shrine. To Inu-Yasha's ears the priestess seemed to only sing to him and no one else, nor did he realize he was in anyone's company.
"Greetings and Welcome to you all. I am Sadame, priestess of this shrine." Said the young priestess as she stopped singing and looked up to see the company. She smiled towards Inu-Yasha and the rest of them while she waved for them to come inside the Shrine. "Please come in, you are all welcome here."
Inu-Yasha, without any complaint, walked straight towards the Shrine after the priestess and was followed closely by Miroku. Kagome finally shrugged and hurried after them.
-They're acting strange. Inu-Yasha is never like this...and well Miroku...he's always like this but not as serious as he seems to be now.- Thought Kagome to herself and she placed her bike outside, picked Shippou up out of her bike basket and went to join the others inside. As soon as she stepped inside she was amazed. The inside was just as beautiful as the outside was. Paintings of nature in all its glory hung from the walls, a few lamps hung from the high ceiling along with some inscence burners as well. Even a few statues of a phoenix were around, along with many dragon statues that seemed to be coming up from rivers, streams or lakes.
"You are welcome to stay the night here. It seems to be getting dark very early this eve and I would be a poor host if I let you go out wandering into that forest at night." Sadame, the priestess, sad and bowed gracifully to the company and then straightened a cloth band that was ontop of her head which tied under her hair. "I already have the cots made in the room to your left for wanderers and guests. Please, feel free to stay."
"Yeah let's stay here then." Inu-Yasha just murmured and just continued looking at the priestess in a daze. Miroku nodded and then yawned, stretching a bit as well and trudging off into the next room. Shippou didn't leave Kagome's arms but just looked up at her still half asleep and also yawned.
"Kagome, can we please stay here? It's nice and warm." Shippou asked her and nuzzled against her in that usual cute child demon manner. Kagome was just about to urge them to leave because she had a bad feeling, but now she just couldn't bring herself to open her mouth. Finally she just nodded her consent and walked off into the room to the left and went to lie down in a cot that was far away from the monk and closer to Inu-Yasha for his protection, just in case the monk tried to do anything while she slept.
The next morning they were woken up by a blinding light. Sadame, the priestess, was opening the windows in the room to let in fresh air and sunlight. A small breeze came into the room and smelled sweetly of sakura blossoms and it was delightfully fresh. The sunlight was nice and warm as well as it hit the sleeping guests. Sadame turned around and blinked slowly seeing that she woke up her guests.
"Oh I am so sorry. I didn't realize you were awake and I'm sorry I woke you. I just felt that you might have wanted some fresh air in this small stuffy room." She said apologetically and bowed quickly to them and hurried out of the room before the company could say anything. After they fully woke up they all began trudging out of the room, one by one. Inu-Yasha was still half sleep, however, and was walking like a zombie out of the room. Miroku was his normal solemn self and Shippou was hopping around and looking at all the statues in the shrine curiously.
"These statues are all of the legendary bird, Phoenix. A lot of fish things too." Shippou commented absentmindedly while leaping up onto the pedestal of one statue and looking it straight in the face as if determined to win at a staring contest. Afterwards he just tilted his head at the statue as it seemed to move and he yelled out and backed away as quickly as possible. Kagome spun around in shock.
"Shippou, what?" she quickly stated and stepped back from the statue as well out of caution. Shippou pointed shakily up at the statue which was of a phoenix although the eyes were just hollow.
"Th-that statue! I-I-It blinked!" He stammered out still shaking out of the sudden fright. Kagome looked to the statue carefully now and stared at it for a moment. Then after she thought she was going to strain her eyes too much the statue moved it's long neck and blinked, the eyes narrowing back in a dark glare of dark voids.
