Inuyasha shrugged. "So what? Just because I don't know the names of fancy plants doen't mean you have the right to make fun of me."
"No that's not it, nevermind, Miroku will know what I'm talking about."
Miroku was hanging out on the pourch of a nice old couple's house smoking a pipe. (Where Kirara and Shippo you ask? They're the fourth and fifth wheel, nobody wants them!)
"Lady Kagome and Lord Inuyasha," Miroku amused himself by giving glorious titles to unlikly people such as Inuyasha and Kagome. It sounded funny to him. "You have taken care of the demons I assume. Nothing gets passed you're nose eh, Lord Inuyasha?" Miroku laughed.
"Pfft, no thanks to you. What were you doing while Kagome and I were risking our lives for the sake of this village?" Inuyasha exaggerated. "And what the hell are you smoking?" Inuyasha scolded like a little child.
Kagome picked up the unmistakeable smell coming from Miroku's pipe. 'I guess he found the weed…' she thought hopelessly. How will she get through to him if he's high ooff of the stuff?
"I, Miroku, was indulging myself with the most perfect cannabis plant I have ever smoked. I was beginning to wonder when I'll ever be able to purify myself again, it has been sooo….long…." Miroku took a long deep puff from his pipe, then continued. "You never really know what you're missing out on in life until you enjoy a few hits of nature's most wonderful plant. You really don't."
Kagome sighed. "Listen Miroku, I'm not surprised you like cannabis and all but you're not the only one. I'm sure the demons that come by here are taking the marijuana plant."
Miroku nodded slowly. "Yes of course. The villagers are, sort of dense I believe. But they're so nice. The old man gave me some of this and even let be borrow this pipe. How could I refuse?" Miroku was still nodding.
'Unsanitary…' Kagome thought.
"What's the big deal Kagome? We already know that the demons don't kill anybody isn't that all that matters?"
"Actually," Miroku said, "Their cannabis plant, which they so tactfully failed to mention to us when we first got here, is very prescious to them. I don't think they appericiate demons just barging in and taking the prescious plant."
Silence.
"Where's Sango?" Inuyasha finally realized.
Miroku coughed. "Why ask me? I'm not keeping track of her. She's a big girl she can take care of herself. Sango and the damn big-ass boomerang…. You think she can develop a complex with that thing?" He asked Kagome.
Kagome shrugged. "Dunno."
Silence.
"Hey, where's Shippo?"
Miroku sighed. "Inuyasha, you must choose the path of enlightenment in order to keep yourself from asking pointless questions. It's a horrible habit. Plus you know we don't care about, what was its name? Shippo."
