Now really, with a pen name like "Scorpiogal", how could you not expect me
to write something like this?
I don't own Inu Yasha, in fact I don 't draw comics at all. I work at McDonalds, (temporarily of course. (Hopefully.));;;;;; I also don't own Little Giant Encyclopedia of the Zodiac. That is the best zodiac book I ever bought!
Chapter 1:Gemini Shippou
Nighttime in the Feudal era, the fire died down at the camp on the hill and Shippou was yawning for sleep. Kagome wasn't even tired; she knew she shouldn't have had that Gatorade before she went to sleep. (an: That's like me after Taekwondo.) She pulled up the sleeve of her fall uniform and looked at her new glow watch. Shippou looked at it and jumped back when she pushed a button and made it light up. She has foxfire like me now! He thought.
"It's only 5:00! Why is it so dark?" she said looking up at the sky. She gasped at the sight of the Milky Way.
"What? Don't they have stars in your time?" Inu Yasha asked.
"They do," Kagome said in awe, "But the city is usually too bright and the sky isn't nearly as clear enough to see them." That's when she remembered the new book that brought with her. "Hey, guys! Don't go to sleep yet! I want you to see this book I have!"
"It's too dark Kagome, we can't see anything!" Sango said. Kagome pouted then remembered she had a battery-powered lantern. She pulled it out of her bottomless backpack along with the book. She turned the lantern on and started to flip through the book.
"What's that?" Shippou said climbing onto her shoulder.
"It's a Zodiac book that my cousin sent me." Kagome said.
"Oh so you have an interest in the zodiac too, Lady Kagome." Miroku said sitting next to her. "It's said that Buddha invited all of the animals to visit him, but for some reason only twelve showed up. So Buddha rewarded them by giving each of them a year where they would be honored in throughout history. The animals' years were put in order by who showed up at Buddha's home first. In order they are rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig."
Kagome sat in awed silence for a second then said, "Well that one is nice, but I'm talking about the Greek Zodiac. It has some animals in it. The legends are different and these are for months not years so they are a little bit more narrowed down."
Miroku looked disappointed, "They're not true." He said.
Kagome realized she must've insulted his monkshood. "They put it in a book though." She said. "It's usually always true when they put it in a book." She watched him looking all insulted. "Your right, it's not true," she said. "But it's still fun to see what it says."
Miroku said nothing for a few seconds then sighed and went back to his normal smooth confidence and said, "Well, if it's just for fun," Sango, Miroku and Shippou sat next to her. Inu Yasha sat nearby.
(an: Let's just assume they have the same calendar as we do.)
"Alright, who wants to go first?" Kagome asked.
"Me me me!" Shippou shouted.
"Alright, Shippou, when were you born?" Kagome asked holding up the book.
"June 5th." He smiled.
Kagome looked at her book then said, "Shippou, you're a Gemini!"
"Cool! What does that mean?" Shippou asked.
"Gemini is the sign of the twins." Kagome started.
"That's not an animal sign." Miroku grumbled.
"Please let me finish." Kagome said. "It is the third sign of the Zodiac and is associated with communication, articulation, speech, dexterity, nimbleness grace."
Inu Yasha snorted. "What are you laughing about?!" Shippou said whapping him on the head.
"Dexterity? Nimbleness? Grace?? Now we know that this book is wrong." Inu Yasha said.
"Will you shut up!" Kagome shouted. "I'm trying to read this." Fire erupted around her.
Inu Yasha backed off with a sweatdrop. Shippou smiled and said, "Meow!" the he pretended to crack a whip.
"Why you!" Inu Yasha grabbed Shippou by the head.
BAM!!
Kagome smacked Inu Yasha on the head with her book. He dropped Shippou and clutched his head. Shippou jumped into Kagome's arms and stuck his tongue out at Inu Yasha. Inu Yasha growled at him.
"We're getting you next, Inu Yasha. So behave!" she said. She set Shippou in her lap and read on, "intelligent, intuition, youth, and freedom."
"Well that kind of sounds likes Shippou." Sango said.
Kagome read the next thing, "Shippou, your spiritual goal is to learn how to cooperate."
Inu Yasha fell over laughing. Kagome rolled her eyes and told the angry Shippou, He's next so don't worry about it."
"Which should I read first?" she asked, "The positive characteristics or the negative?"
"Read the negative." Inu Yasha said.
"An unhappy or frustrated Gemini may display some of the not so attractive traits." Kagome read them in a list. "Restless, quickly bored-"
"Oh yeah." Inu Yasha said.
"Impractical, impatient or irritable-"
"That's him."
"Gossipy, nervous, manipulative, noncommittal, dual personality."
"Shippou, they've got you written down on scrolls." Inu Yasha.
"Shippou growled at him. "Kagome!" he said looking up at her sadly.
"I'm reading the positive now, Shippou." She said. "Inquisitive, entertaining and charming, broad minded, youthful, quick, stimulating and inventive." She smiled at Inu Yasha, "What'dya know! They do have him written down."
"Inu Yasha said nothing but, "Feh!"
"Are we gonna make fun of Inu Yasha now?" Shippou asked.
"No, we're gonna read about the Gemini child." Kagome said. She turned to the page and began to read, "The typical Gemini child loves chattering, will become irritable if cooped up, needs lots of space to explore, in friendly, is bright and alert, can be quite precocious-"
"What does 'precocious mean?" Shippou asked.
"It means you're a smart kid for your age." Kagome said.
"Ha! That's a laugh." Inu Yasha said.
"The bigger they are, the harder they fall Mr. Next." Kagome said. She read on, "Likes to use his hands, may be ambidextrous, and he can often mimic others."
"That actually sounds a lot like Shippou." Sango said.
Everyone looked at Miroku, "Well, it kind of does." He said.
"That was Shippou and now it's Inu Yasha's turn." Kagome said. "Inu Yasha, when were you born?"
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry, but there is actually a reason for cliff-hangers. I almost always use cliff-hangers, I'm just trying to keep you interested. Please review, when you review, it feeds my story and makes me feel important.
