Disclaimer- I do NOT own any of the Inuyasha characters (as much as I wish I did)
This chapter is a mess and a half-Mei is constantly being confused for her mother, Kagome. This causes problems. lol. Hope you like!
CHAPTER THREE
Confusion
Feudal Japan. Hari and Shiro at the bottom of the well.
"I'm here, at least I think so. Hmm, now to get out. This shouldn't be too hard. Oh! A rope. I'll use that. Come Shiro, I'll take you up."
"Kagome?"
Mei looked up as she pulled herself and Shiro out of the well.
"Kagome? You came back!"
"I'm not--"
An old woman picked Mei up and hugged her tight.
"Oh Kagome! How long has it been! Come, I shall take you to Miroku and Sango."
"Miroku and Sango? They're alive?"
"Of course Kagome!"
"But it's been years. Hasn't it?"
"Only a couple. Now come. Follow me."
Kaede, the old woman, showed Mei to a small house.
A little boy was playing in the dirt with two little girls right in front of the house Kaede, Mei, and Shiro were walking to.
"Brother, look at this!"
"Wow, sister you're getting really good!"
"Oh yeah? You really think so?"
"Brother, sister, look at what I made!"
"Wow!"
"Sister! That is so cool!"
"Ha ha ha. You really think so?"
"I think we're all getting better! I love making mud things!"
"Yeah! Hmm? Hey sisters, who's that?"
"It's Priestess Kaede!"
"Priestess Kaede! Priestess Kaede!"
Mei looked at the three kids running toward Kaede, smiling. Kaede bent down and hugged them as they jumped into her arms.
"Hey, who's that?"
The children looked at Mei.
"This is Kagome. You remember the stories your mother told you."
"This is Kagome?"
"I pictured her to be taller."
"Yup, me to."
"No. You need to listen. I'm not--"
"Come now, inside. Sango and Miroku can keep you here for a while."
Mei followed Kaede into the house. When they got inside Kaede told Mei to stay in the room while she went to get Miroku and Sango. Mei kneeled down on the floor and waited. A little girl sat by her.
"Hi."
"Hey there. What's your name?"
"I'm Mirago, the youngest."
"Oh. Well, it's very nice to meet you."
Mirago smiled and scooted closer to Mei. Just then Kaede walked in with Sango.
"Kagome?"
Mei stood up.
"Kagome, you have finally returned!"
Miroku walked in.
"That's not Kagome."
"Miroku. What are you talking about?"
"I know Kagome and that's not her."
Miroku thought to himself, "Her butt is much smaller."
"Kagome? Is that true?"
Bum Bum Bum BUM! Mei is faced with a "situation". Should she lie! (She won't lie) lol. So what'd you think? Hope you liked it!
