The Village Job

"Hey guys," said Shippo, "what does that sign say?" " 'Help wanted. Demon slayers needed. See the leader of the next village to apply.'" Read Miroku. "Well, we might as well go. We need the money," said Sango. "YES!! A real bed!! A real bath!! C'mon, let's go!" Yelled Kagome. Then Kagome hopped on her bike and started pedaling towards the village leaving the others in her wake. "Wow. She really wants that bed and bath, huh?" Asked Inuyasha. "Yup." "Uh-huh." "Yeah." Inuyasha started running toward Kagome and the others followed him.

An hour after they chased after Kagome, they found the village. They asked a villager where the leader was and she led them to their house. Miroku knocked on the door and a maid answered the door. "Yes? Can I help you?" "Yes. We saw the sign set up saying you needed some demon slayers. We came to apply," said Miroku. "Oh! Come inside. I'll announce you." The maid led them to a door while she went in and talked to the village leader. The maid came back and told them to enter. "Welcome to my home. Thank you for coming to our aid. My name is Tolho." "Hello. My name's Miroku, and this is Sango, Kagome, Shippo, Kilala, and Inuyasha. We are happy to help you."

"So why do you need demon slayers?" Asked Kagome. "Well, you see, this demon comes every three nights and takes one of our own. We sent a scout to look for the demons hide out, but we haven't seen him for weeks. We really need your help." "Don't fret my dear lady. We would be glad to assist. Miss. Tolho?" "Yes?" "I was wondering if you have any room left in this humble aboad of yours. We really need a place to sleep and regain our strength," said Miroku. "Of course. You can use my bath house, if you wish." With that said Kagome and Sango ran out of the room and raced towards the bath house. "Whoa. They sure didn't waste any time, did they Inuyasha?" Asked Miroku. "Uh-uh."

For the next three days, they all trained to fight the demon. Well, everyone except Miroku. He flirted with the women. Sango had to drag him back to the others so many times, he actually grew a few inches. On the day when they were to fight the demon they trained even more. A half hour before the demon was supposed to show, Inuyasha went to the village entrance to wait for the demon. The second the sun went down, the demon appeared. "So, you're the demon that has been attacking this village, right?" "Yeah; so what?" "Well, I'm afraid I'm going to have to kill you." Then Inuyasha jumped for the demon and slashed at him with his claws. The demon was to fast though.

He dodged the attack and laughed. "You actually think you can kill me?! The great nephew of Kyokotsu of the Band of 7?!" "What's your name?!" "My name is Enoch!!" "Well Enoch," said Inuyasha, "looks like your gonna die!!" Inuyasha leapt for Enoch and swung the Tetsusaiga at him. He dodged it, but just barely. "Okay, it looks like I'm going to have to bring the big toys. Now die you bastard! WIND!! SCAR!!!!!" Yelled Inuyasha as the Tetsusaiga was brought down. Enoch couldn't dodge the Wind Scar so it sliced through his belly and cut him in half. When the villagers saw the demon was dead, an earsplitting roar came out of nowhere. Inuyasha turned to look at the villagers and waved while he was smiling.

Tolho had a celebration thrown for Inuyasha and his friends in thanks of killing the demon. While Miroku was running from some old women, he saw that some of the men were trying to move the demons' corpse. Miroku lost the women and went over to the men. "May I be of some assistance, gentlemen?" "Yes please. We need all the help we can get." "Please, for me to help you all must get behind me." The villagers did as they were told with a confused look on their faces. Miroku pointed his right hand at the carcass and took the beads of his right wrist. "WIND TUNNEL!!!" The demons' corpse flew into Mirokus' Wind tunnel and all that was left was the blood on the ground where the body was laying. "Thank you, monk. We are indebted to you." "No really. You should be indebted to Inuyasha; he killed the demon. All I did was suck the body into my Wind Tunnel. It's not a big deal." Miroku saw the old women that were chasing him before and freaked out. "Uh, please excuse me gentlemen." Miroku ran away from the women begging for help. "Sango! Shippo! Kagome! Kirara! Somebody help me!!" Miroku saw Sango and ran over to her and hid behind her Hiraiokotsu.

"Huh? Miroku, what're you doing?" "Hiding." "Why?" "Scary old women won't stop chasing me." Sango looked confused and saw the women looking for him. "You're right. They are scary." They actually went through every house trying to find him. While Miroku was cowering behind Sango, Kagome was with Inuyasha. "Inuyasha, don't you think everyone is making a big deal about this?" "Yeah. But what ever I do they say I'm modest and just give me more meat. We might as well wait until they've had their fill." Kagome sighed and nodded. After a few hours, the villagers gradually went home to get some sleep. When everyone left, Inuyasha and the others went back to Tolhos' house to get some sleep.

The next day, Tolho paid them the money she owed them for killing the demon and Inuyasha and the others left. While they were leaving, they waved goodbye and the old women started to wink at Miroku and Miroku ran far away from the village. Sango, Kagome, Inuyasha, Shippo, and Kirara finally caught up with him at a half way house where he was eating dumplings and drinking some tea. They then left the half way house and continued their search for Naraku.
