Scene: The Countryside

Introduction: Inu Yasha and company already have 3/4 of the Shikon no Tama. Now, they're on the hunt for another shard, which, according to Kagome, is nearby.

Inu Yasha: Shit! Are you sure a jewel shard's nearby?

Kagome: Of course I'm sure, goddammit! You don't believe me, do you?

Inu Yasha: [grumbles]

[Miroku, Sango, and Shippo watch in silence]

Miroku: [sigh] Looks like they're at it again.

Shippo: Inu Yasha can be childish at times. I'm embarrassed to be around him.

Sango: [raises an eyebrow] We all are.

[all three of them sigh]

Kirara: [purrs]

Sango: [pats Kirara] Don't worry Kirara. Everything would be all right. I promise.

[A huge whirlwind forms from out of nowhere with powerful winds. Miroku and Shippo protected the group.]

Inu Yasha: What the hell--!

The whirlwind revealed a silhouette.

Inu Yasha: What's that?

Kagome: It...it looks like a woman.

Miroku: How can you be sure, Lady Kagome?

Kagome: I---I don't know.

The whirlwind died down, and it indeed reveal a woman.

Inu Yasha & Kagome: [gasp] Kikyo?!?!

Kikyo: Inu Yasha.

[Silence]

Kikyo: Inu Yasha, I want to see you again.

Kagome: Huh?

[Kikyo walk to Inu Yasha and put her hand on his face]

Kikyo: [whisper] Inu Yasha.

Inu Yasha: [whisper] Ki..Kikyo.

[They kiss]

Group: What's going on here?!?!

[Inu Yasha backs away from Kikyo]

Inu Yasha: What's going on, Kikyo?

Kikyo: I actually came to seek your answer.

Kagome: What answer? [to Inu Yasha] What is she talking about?

Inu Yasha: [clears throat] Kagome. Kikyo. I decided who I wanted to be with.

Kikyo & Kagome: And...?

Inu Yasha: Well, I want Kikyo.

Kikyo: Yes!

Kagome: [through gritted teeth] You bastard. Sit!

[Inu Yasha became a smoking crater]

Kikyo: Stand!

[Inu Yasha stands up]

Kagome: [gasp] What the--!

Kikyo: [smirks] You see, Kagome, you're not the only person who can control Inu Yasha. I can, too.

Kagome: [thinking] We'll see about that, you dead bitch.

Kagome: Sit!

[Inu Yasha falls into the same crater he made]

Kikyo: Stand!

[Inu Yasha stands again]

Kagome: Oh. So it's like that, huh? Inu Yasha, I want to be with you. Choose me!

Kikyo: No! Choose me!

Kagome: [growls] Sit!

Kikyo: Stand!

[During all of this, Miroku, Sango, and Shippo are watching, eating popcorn that they found in Kagome's backpack]

Sango: Shouldn't we be helping Inu Yasha?

Miroku: No. It's best that we leave it to the girls. Popcorn?

Sango: [smiles] Yes. Thank you.

[The "contest" went on for 20 minutes, then the girls grew tired of it]

Kagome: [gasping] Well, Inu Yasha...

Kikyo: [also gasping] who are you going to choose?

[Inu Yasha is now standing between the girls, irresolute]

Inu Yasha: [thinking] Who can I choose? Even though I still love Kikyo, her skin is cold. On the other hand, Kagome always treat me like a damn pet.

Kikyo & Kagome: [shrilly] WELL?

Inu Yasha: I decided to have neither of you bitches.

Miroku: Uh, oh.

Shippo: Here comes trouble.

Sango: Brace yourself.

[Kikyo and Kagome look at each other and smile, as if they have something in mind]

Kikyo: Ready?

Kagome: Yeah.

Both: SIT!!!

[Inu Yasha created a BIGGER crater]

Everybody: [laughs]
