Chapter 3:
Gohan reached out and brushed the small girls bangs from her face. 'She's so beat up.' Gohan thought to himself. He could see tears streaming down the girls face. "Come on, lets get you out of this place." Gohan said with a smile. The girl took his right before Gohan picker her up, and carried her outside. "Thats the demon?" Sango asked, and she was more than a little suprised.
Gohan shrugged and kept walking till they were completely out of the village before he sat on a rock and set down the girl. Her kimono was dirty and stained with blood and dirt, and her black eye made her purple eye's seem dim. "You gotta a name cutie?" Gohan asked brushing off some of the dust on her kimono. "Kaya." the little girl said whiping her nose with her sleeve.
Gohan reached into his pocket and pulled out a hankerchief to whipe her nose.
"I really wish Sango hadn't takin off with that boy without me, he could be dangerous!" Miroku grumbled jealously. "As long as that brat's not near me I'm okay." Inuyasha said rolling on his side. "How dare you! That little monsters out there with my wife!" Miroku scolded Inuyasha who shrugged with one shoulder. "And what would your plan be to stop the 'little monster' huh?" Kagome asked leaning forward with a very sarcastic look on her face.
"I-I'd draw him into my wind-tunnel!" Miroku snapped his fingers. "Have you notice he can disappear from one spot an appear in another?" Kagome asked sarcasticly. "I-I-I" Miroku stammered. "I'm bigger than him!" Miroku just blurtted out a reason he would win. Kagome raised her eye brow but didn't answer. "Face it, he's not dangerous, you're just being jealous." Kagome said. Shippo nodded in agreement.
"Its getting late, we should probably make camp." Sango said as Gohan walked, carrying the small girl on his back. "Here, I have a way we can get back tonight." Gohan patted his shoulder signaling for Kilala to jump on, and then placed 2 fingers on Sango's forehead. Sango was shocked when they were in front of Lady Kaede's hut.
"How'd you do that?" Sango said looking at Gohan and back at the hut rapidly. "It's a technique my Dad taught me." Gohan whispered, trying his best not to wake Kaya. Gohan and Sango came into the hut, carrying the small girl. "Who the hell is that." Inuyasha asked glareing at the boy.
"The 'Demon' we were supposed to kill." Gohan said softly, laying his shirt over the girl. "I'd rather you'd keep your shirt on around my wife." Gohan blinked confused as Miroku and Inuyasha glared at him. "Or are you trying to entice my woman-" Miroku began to say. "Stop." Gohan's assertive voice stopped the monk.
"Don't be jealous, although, he is really cute." Sango teased. Gohan could feel himself beginning to redden. "He sure is." Kagome agreed with her friend. Inuyasha and Miroku scowled at him. Looking for something to distract him from the dirty looks he picked up one of Kagome's books.
Kagome was doing a page of home work, and Gohan glanced over at her and she was asleep. Gohan gently removed the pen from her hand and fell asleep himself.
Gohan awoke to someone giggling madly. He looked up to see Inuyasha and Kaya in some sort of a wrestling match. Gohan sat up, and brushed the few tangles out of his hair with his hands. Gohan, walked down to the near by river, where the two girls and the monk were getting a drink of water.
"Still refusing to put a shirt on?" Miroku asked. Gohan didn't respond and Sango gave him a light slap in the chest. Gohan removed his shoes and dove into the water, it was nearly November so everyone looked shocked. Gohan floated on the surface of the water for a 10 minutes before he got out.
Sesshomaru emerged from the tree's across the river. "Are you the boy everyone is talking about?" Sesshomaru asked. "By the tone in your voice it sounds as if you already know the answer to that." Gohan retorted turning towards him. "Be careful Gohan, he's stronger than he looks." Miroku warned. Sesshomaru glared at Gohan.
Sesshomaru shot after him, spraying him with poison. "Gohan!" Sango and Kagome screamed. Sesshomaru's smirk disappeared when the poison cloud settled. "I hope that you can do better than that." Gohan's calm voice shocked Sesshomaru.
"You guys take cover." The others did as he said and took cover behind some large boulders. Gohan began to to power up. Tree's snapped in two and water became choppy. Sesshomaru stepped backwards, in disbelief. "Ahhhh!" Gohan powered into his super saiyan 2 form.
"Impossible." Sesshomaru said to himself sensing his power rise even more. But out of no where the boy disappeared, Sesshomaru himself being thrown forward across the sand after Gohan had kicked him in the back. The others gasped. "Wha-t are you?" Gohan ignored his question. "I'd prefer not to fight you." Gohan admitted.
"But if you decide to continue, you'll die. You're not a fool, I can tell." Gohan waited for his response. "You are more powerful than I, continuing in a hopeless battle would be foolish." Sesshomaru left, and the others looked on astonished.
'A demon feared through out the demon world, had just admitted he was not Gohans equal?!' Sango thought to herself. Inuyasha landed with Kaya clinging to his back. "What's going on!? Are you guys okay?" Inuyasha looked around for Sesshomaru.
"Where's Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha looked back at Gohan. "He realized he couldn't beat me, and admitted he wasn't my equal and left." Gohan said as he transformed back.
"I'm so sick of you! You smug little brat, I want you gone! Now!" Inuyasha screamed in his face.
