The next day, Inuyasha went to go check up on the fish and maybe even feed it. He tapped the tank with his fingers but the fish didn't swim up to it. He repeated the same action but still no response.

The fish was still alive but he didn't pay any mind to Inuyasha's finger. Inuyasha thought this was strange so he called over Shippo and asked him to tap the glass. No response.

"What do you think is wrong with it?" Inuyasha asked Shippo in a worried tone.

"I don't know, maybe he is sad…" Shippo replied.

"And what are you supposed to do with a sad fish?"

Suddenly, a piece of crumpled paper came flying in through the window of the hut and hit Inuyasha in the head. He bent down to pick it up and un-crumple which revealed the words "THE FISH WHISPERER" in big bold letters. Shippo and Inuyasha thought that they had found the answer to the problems, so as Inuyasha carried the tank, Shippo led the way to the "FISH WHISPERER". When they arrived at a creepy looking hut with spider webs on the door, Shippo turned back to run away but Inuyasha stepped on him and said to him in a slightly shook up voice, "Cut it out! Yo…oou..baby."

"Like you should talk! You can't even talk right cuz' you're so scared!! If you ask me, you're the bigger baby because--" Inuyasha pressed his foot down even harder on his back, cutting off his air.

Suddenly, they heard a faint creepy voice say, "C'mon on in and don't forget that precious fish."

Inuyasha wondered how the person knew they had a fish with them but he decided not to let it bother him that much. He and Shippo walked in slowly, examining their surroundings. There wasn't much to see in the dark candle lit hut besides a dusty bookshelf and small wooden table. Inuyasha placed the tank on it and pulled out a chair that he sat down in. Shippo stood on the table beside the tank hoping that this could some how cure the fish.

"Hello! Welcome to my beautiful house!" said a man in a long purple robe.

"Are you the fish whisperer?" Inuyasha asked in an unfriendly tone.

"Why yes, yes I am. Hehe.." Inuyasha and Shippo glanced at each other with confused faces, "No need to be frightened. I shall cure your fish! What's wrong with him," Shippo opened his mouth to answer but the Fish Whisperer began to speak again, "Oh hold on! I think I know. He is suicidal!"

"Well…umm..no." Inuyasha said.

"He is afraid of the light."

"No. Not that either."

"A deadly disease that will kill him in five days?"

"Nope."

"WHAT THE HELL IS IT THEN?!"

"He is sad." Shippo said while putting his hand on the glass.

The Fish Whisperer scratched his head and was struck by an idea. He moved aside some books on the bookshelf and pulled out a jar with something black in it. He opened the jar and scooped some out with his finger while removing the cover to the tank.

"Oh, Great Spirits! Bring this fish up when he is down! He needs your otherworldly help. Save him from the sadness that has struck him! Yes! Cure him!!" Once he was done shouting what seemed like nonsense to Inuyasha and Shippo, he tossed the black stuff into the water.

"Noo!!! I just cleaned that tank!" Inuyasha cried out dramatically. The Fish Whisperer then painted a gold Wicca symbol on the tank.

"Yes, the Gods will take care of you. You should leave him over night so that he is never unsupervised." The Fish Whisperer recommended.

"Well, I guess…."

"Yes. Ok have to go into to deep prayer now. Say goodbye to your buddy. Pick him up tomorrow in the morning." Inuyasha and Shippo rubbed the tank and left the hut. As they walked there was complete silence until Shippo decided to speak.

"You know, I think that black stuff he put in the tank was oregano." he stated.

Inuyasha laughed, "Why would you think that Shippo?"

"Because the jar said 'oregano'."

"Don't be silly, Shippo! What would he be doing with oregano? Isn't that some kind of foreign spice?"

"Yeah….."

"That's used in food, right?"

"Umm, yeah…" Shippo began to sweat because Inuyasha was smiling his evil smile.

"Hah! That's funny, Shippo. I just imagined him taking our seasoned fish out of the water and putting him in a boiling pot of water and eating him for dinner. That wouldn't happen! Ha ha ha ha! Wow what an imagination I have. Isn't that funny, Shippo? C'mon laugh! Ha ha ha…"

"Yeah….he he ha…"

Inuyasha's eyes grew wide as he grabbed Shippo and screamed, "I HATE YOU!! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME LATER, YOU LITTLE SSSSHHHIIIITTTT!!!!"

He then threw Shippo far far away as he ran back to the hut. He could smell a fireplace that was just recently lit. Inuyasha burst through the door and tackled the Fish Whisperer.

"Don't you dare eat my fish!! You…cat?!" Inuyasha was shocked when at the realization that the Fish Whisperer was really a cat demon.

"Hissss!!!"

"Damm you!! What did you do with the fish?!"

"Still in the tank. You can have him if you get past me." The cat demon teased.

Inuyasha quickly reached in his pocket and pulled out a ball of yarn that Shippo had given to him a couple of days ago, "You see the yarn kitty. Huh? Do ya," The cat demon's eyes grew wide with amusement, "You want this don't you? Well go get it!"

Inuyasha threw the yarn out the window of the hut. The demon followed it and Inuyasha quickly grabbed the tank and ran for his life. He wasn't afraid that the cat demon, he just feared what Kagome would do to him if her fish was eaten by an idiot that probably chokes on his own hairballs.

Inuyasha returned to the village with the fish so exhausted from the ridiculous event that could have been prevented that he dropped the fish off at Kaede's and took a long nap.

FISH WHISPERER

This should be common sense for most of you. Psychics are not real and never will be real. Do not go to someone who claims to be a "Fish Whisperer" or a "Fish Psychic" or a "Fish Mind Reader". If your fish is showing signs of depression, just pay more attention to it and it will all be better. I had a very bad experience with one of these fakes. He was a pet fish eater! But luckily I returned in time to save my girlfriend's fish from being eaten, or dying from to much seasoning in the tank.

TIPS

-Never believe a psychic

-Never let your fish stay over night with a weird person

-If for some reason you must go to a fish psychic, then make sure that any sort of powder they throw in the tank isn't a seasoning
