A Pirates Life for Me!:

Chapter One:

"You are a pretty one, aren't you....." Miroku cooed to the young lady who was working to bread and chesse stall today. She had wavey red hair and blue eyes. Miroku would distract her, while Inuyasha stole some food.



The girl blushed. She was younger then most of the other stall people and was considerably new at the task.

"Would you like to come visit and talk with me someday?" He asked.

She blushed more.

Miroku pulled out a piece of small parchment and a quill and wrote the directions to some made up house. Discreetly, he purposefully dropped the quill and made sure it fell close to her feet.

"There... There's the directions to my house...." He said handing her the paper. "Oh.... I seemed to have dropped my quill... I'm so clumsy..."

She blushed once more and bent to pick up the pen. While she was occupied with picking it up, Inuyasha grabbed a few loves of bread and a few wedges of chesse. He stuffed them under his cloak and no one even noticed.

"Well... I should be going... I have a prior engagement with my sister." He lied. He didn't even have a sister. Inuyhasa and and him were now going to the small shop that Kagome and Sango owned called the Medicine House. It wasn't just their shop... It was their house as well. The front rooms were teh shop and the back and the upstairs were the actual house.

The guys almost always shared their loot with the girls. They often let them stay over night in the spare bedrooms. Inuyhasa and Miroku had their own place... They just stayed at Kagome's and Sango's when they were closest to there.

The girls didn't make a large ammount of money. They sold herbs, medicines, lotions, spices, and everyday house hold items.

"Hello ladies..." Miroku said as he entered the shop, expecting them to be sittign right there.

"Oh... Hello..." Inuyasha said as he realized that it wasn't the girls sitting at the table in the front room. A lady and her young (maybe tenish...) daughter were

sitting there.

"Oh... Sorry.... I wasnt' expectign them to have company." Miroku said.

"Where be Lady Sango and Lady Kagome?" Inuyahs asked.

The woman was poised as if she had once been a Lady of a house hold. But she was definately not dressed as one. She wore a almost ragged old dress that was very out-dated. The peasants old style, though. She ahd a thick green cloak draped over one arm. She must be from somewehre colder. Because it was only fall and you surely wouldn't need such a thick cloak.

~/~A disguise maybe?~/~ Inu thought.

The young girl looked only a little liek her mother. She was wearing breeches and a tunic. Nothing a Lord or Lady would let their daughter wear. ~/~Definately peasants....~/~ He decided.

"They're in the back, sir." The girl told them. She, too, had a thick cloak draped over her arm. Only hers was a deep blue. It went pretty well with her shining green eyes and curly, red tinted, black hair.

"I haven't seen the two of you around here before.... Are you here visiting?" Miroku asked.

"Aye... " The lady said. "My father lives around here...And I needed to see the town again.."

"Well then... Did you used to live here abouts then?" Miokru asked.

"Miroku...it's not proper to ask such questions of a lady when you haven't yet been introduced...." Inuyasha said.

"I'm Miroku... And this here is Inuyhasa..." He said.

"I'm Elizabeth... And this young lady is my daughter, Bellian." She said.

"Bili, Mother.... My name is Bili...." Bellian said. She'd rahter be called Bili.

"I'll take it that you ladies asked for some special spice or herb to be keeping the ladies busy so long...?" Miroku asked, ever the nosey person.

"We asked for, parsley, thyme, mint sage, willowbark, " She paused and pulled a piece of parchment ot of her cloak. "Aloe, chammomile, powdered magnesium,

bee pollen, green tea leaves, garlic, pepper, three rolls of bandages, fish oil, inositol, feverfew, ginger, basil, flour, ink, prachment, dill, a roll of black cloth, and two pairs of sturdy leather boots...."

"Why didn't you just hand them the list, Ma?" Bili asked.

"Hush child..." She said to Bili, then turned to the guys again. "Anything they can't get us, we'll get elsewhere."

"Why dont you just go to one of the shops in the center of town that would have all of the items for sure?" Inuyasha asked.

"Becasue they have an abundance of money... These girls don't. We're even considering buying them lunch..." Elizabeth said.

"Speaking of lunch... Mother? Can we go eat after this? I'm hungry..." Bili said.

"The girls will probably be a while... Why don't we just share the lot we brought here with us to share with the girls anyways...." Inu said.

Inuyasha pulled out the bread and cheese and split it up into six parts. One for each of them, including Kagome and Sango.

"Alright...." Sango said, walking into the room a few minutes later with Kagome. Both were carrying a box of various spices and things that had been named on Elizabeth's list.

"Everything you asked for is here... You can check if you want... But it's all there." Kagome said, setting her box down on the table. Sango soon did so as well.

"Thank you..." Elizabeth said. "Bili... The money?"

"Yes, Ma..." She sighed, pulling out a cloth pouch full of shillings from her pocket.

Kagome took the bag and peeked inside. "You over paid..." She said.

"I know.... You deserve and need the money more than I do..." She told them. Besides, Bili had three more pouches in her pockets... They had expected to have

to pay much more for everything they had gotten.

"Ma... Can we go now? I want to go see Granda..." Bili said.

"Alright... " Elizabeth said, standing so she could pick up one of the boxes.

"Inuyasha... Miroku... Why don't you two carry those boxes fro them... You can drop them off at her da's house..." Sango said. "I'll pay you when you get back..."

"No need for pay.... we'll do it with out...." Miroku said, picking up a box. Inuyasha did the same.

"Lead on... We follow you." Inuyasha told them.

Inu and Miroku followed the to the other side of town and to the huge manow that belonged to the Govenor. They set the boxes out side the door and accepted the

payment Elizabeth offered them.

"Her father's the Gov'ner?" Miroku said.

"Nah... Probably just a servant in his household..." Inuyasha said.

"You know what? We should bring the girls hoem some good fish for dinner..." Miroku said.

"Great idea....Let's go to the docks...." Inuyasha said and they headed to the docks.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Hey! Fish monger! That fish just winked at me!" Inuyasha said. It was his turn to be the distraction.

"You're daft! That gill's dead!" The fish monger (seller...) said. (by gill he means fish.... if you can't work that out.....)

"Nah.... No I ain't.... That gill winked at me!" Inu said again.

"You're bloddy daft! Dead gills don't wink!" He said again.

"Look... Look closely..." He said, holding it infront of the mongers face.

"It's not winking!" He said.

"Oh... It will... just watch longer..."

"The gill ain't gonna wink! You're daft! Daft I tell you! Now leave! I'm tired of your games!" He said angrily.

"Fine...! I'll go to the market where they sell old uncursed fish!" That should've been enough of a distraction for Miroku to snag some fish...

Inuyasha strolled off to the end of the dock where Miroku was waiting for him.

Just as Inu reached Miroku, another more elderly man reached him as well (but not to much more elderly!!!!!)

He had black, dredlocked hair and a red bandana. Over that he had on a black three cornered hat.

"You... Cat man...What is your name?" He asked Inuyasha. Inu was wearing a headband that had two ears made of white cloth on it on his head. it was an inside

joke.

"Dog.... They're dog ears..." He said.

"Aye... What be your name lad...?" He asked again.

"Inuyasha..." He said.

"And you lad...? What be your name?" He asked Miroku.

"Miroku.." He responded. "And you are?"

"I be Captain Jack sparrow!" He said proudly. "That was a nice trick you pulled back there..."

"Trick? What trick?" Miroku asked innocently.

"How dog boy over there distracted him while you nabbed the gills..." Jack said.

He had an eccentric look about him and didn't look like he was any danger to them.

"It was, wasn't it..." Inu said.

"Aye... I wouldn't mind having some skills like that on me ship with my crew..." He said.

"Sorry... We can't..." Inu said before Miroku could say otherwise.

"Why mate? What be holding ye back?" Jack asked.

"Nothing important.... We just can't go..." Miroku sighed.

"Girls..." Jack said after a second. "Ladies be holding you back...Eh?"

Neither Inu or Miroku responded.

"Aye... That's what it be... Shall you bring the ladies with you?" He asked. I can pay you and your lasses well..."

"I'd love to go to sea with you mate... But the girls wouldn't be so willing to leave." Inu said.

"How much do ye want to go?" Jack asked.

"I'd give almost anything to leave this bloddy place. If it weren't for the girls..." Miroku said.

"I'm pretty sure I can... convince them to coem along..." Jack said.

"How?" Inu asked suspiciously.

"Well? All you need to know is that you've been kidnapped." Jack told them. "That's the story I'll be telling your lasses."

"So if they ask us... You and your crew have kidnapped us...?" Inu asked.

"Exactly..." Jack said.

"Right..." Miroku said, understanding.

"Well... We'll leave tommorow morn... Be ready and on the ship tonight... Don'tr let the girls see you and pack the necesities and bring them on my ship the Black

Pearl... Make sure the girls don't see you until after you're on the ship..." Jack said and began to walk away.

Inuyasha and Miroku starred off at him.

"Oh... Where be these lasses of yours?" He asked, turning back to them.

"Oh.... Go to the Medicine House... Thats' where they'll be ..." Miroku told him.

"Alright then.. I suggest you two be on me Pearl in the next two hours..." Jack told them.

"Okay..." They said in unison.
