Chapter 6: Fluffy Stuffy

The more I thought, the more I remembered. I remembered when I'd met Tsubaki. She was a young girl at the time, only about two years older than I. She was training with, whom I'd come to realize, was Kikyo. Neither of them were suitable choices for Head Priestessof their village. They did not come close to earning the title. My mother forced me to assist them with their training. Despite my age, I was still more experienced. I had been my village's Head Priestess since I was ten years old and I knew how the system worked. Both of the girls had instant jealousy over me and didn't want to accept my advice, thinking they were superior to me. I left my training with them and never looked back. They were unworthy.

We were still on the hunt for Tsubaki but had to stop for the night on account of the return of my younger sisters. Botan and Momiji. They were really back. They were really laying next to me. They had told me of their return and how they were on their way to find me and our other siblings but I found them first. Then they asked about Onigumo. Where is Onigumo, Nee-sama? Where did Onigumo go? Did he die as well, Nee-sama? Their question had upset me and they knew that. I told them that Onigumo was gone and he was never coming back. It wasn't a lie. Onigumo had died long ago. All that was left was Naraku.

It was late at night. Everyone was asleep. I shut my eyes for a brief second when I felt someone shake my shoulder. I assumed it was my sisters with more questions, but it was not.

"Lady Kyoko." It was Bankotsu.

"What is it?" I asked him.

"I have to go take a piss, you gotta come with."

I sighed and he helped me off of the ground. We walked through the woods for a second until Bankotsu found a good enough Pee Spot. Men were so disgusting! Kenji better never grow up! I waited behind a tree while Bankotsu took care of his business. When he finished he came around to me and told me he was ready to go back. We walked in silence until Bankotsu pulled me behind a tree with him. I gave him a questioning look and he put a finger to his lips. Then from the corner of my eye I could see Renkotsu trekking through the woods.

"That bastard is meeting up with someone, I bet.." Bankotsu whispered to me.

"Follow him?" I asked him as I kept my eyes on the retreating man.

"There's no room in this group for traitors."

He was pissed, I could tell. I could feel his anger radiating off of his body. He grabbed my hand and led me through the forest quite a ways behind Renkotsu. I decided to follow Renkotsu by detection of Jewel Shards, but what I felt made me stop.

"Bankotsu?" I raised my eyes to his face.

"Hm?"

"How many shards is a member of you band supposed to have?"

"The men should only have one, while I keep the rest, of course!" Bankotsu looked at me like I was crazy and then his eyes widened in realization, "How many does that little fucker have?" He grabbed me by my shoulders and lowered himself to be eye level with me.

I held up five fingers and his eyes quickly narrowed. He snatched the hand I held up and he dragged me with him after Renkotsu.

"He's going to a temple." I whispered to Bankotsu.

Why was he going to a spiritual place? Bankotsu pulled me with him to hide behind a large tree. I quickly masked our aura's so that no one would notice our presence. I glanced at Bankotsu to see his body shaking with rage as a woman made her way to Renkotsu.

"Hello, Kikyo." Renkotsu called to the woman with a boyish grin.

"Hello, Renkotsu.." She replied in a cold tone.

"Kikyo?" I whispered to Bankotsu and he nodded, "The one that lied about being Kagome's descendant? That Kikyo?" He nodded again and I glared at the woman in question.

"Sh, listen.." Bankotsu placed a hand over my mouth.

"Do you have the shards?" Kikyo asked Renkotsu as she brought her hand out.

"I thought you could sense them..?" Renkotsu replied as he handed over the shards.

"I-I can, o-of course!" She bit out quickly, too quickly.

"I'm sorry, Mi'lady! But.." Renkotsu moved closer to her, "why don't we.." He embraced her romantically, "Make up..?"

Kikyo smirked and led him towards the shrine. They were going to perform such an ungrateful act in a shrine! I shuddered at the thought and looked up at Bankotsu. He looked extremely pissed.

"What do you think we should do?"

"I'm gonna fucking kill him!"

"NO!"

Bankotsu tried to launch himself out from our hiding place but I grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back to me. I guess I pulled a little too hard because the next thing I knew Bankotsu was pressed against the front of my body while my backside was firmly against the tree. Bankotsu's face was so close to mine that I was scared to breathe. He looked into my eyes, so many emotions in his own.

"I have a better idea.." I told him with a smirk.


Bankotsu and I had swiftly made our way back to camp and I roused my sisters awake.

"Botan, Momiji." I called to them.

"What is it, nee-sama?" Botan asked, rubbing her eyes.

"I have to rune a few errands with Bankotsu. I need you two to stay with this group until I return."

"But, Nee-sama! We just reunited... can't we come with you-" Botan cut Momiji off.

"Show some respect for Nee-sama's wishes!" Botan spoke harshly, "We will await your return, Nee-sama." I smiled at my sister before turning back to bankotsu.

"Ready?"

"Let's go."

We made our way into the forest once again. I had told Bankotsu of my plan to frighten Kikyo and Renkotsu. We would follow them around and leave 'messages' of sorts for them to find, letting them know that we were all around them. Bankotsu loved the idea, like I knew he would.

We walked in silence to the village near the shrine Kikyo and Renkotsu had soiled previously. I looked down at my arm bands which I shared with Bankotsu. I was still a little shocked at my mothers rashness, but then I remembered it was my mother.

"Hey, Kyo?" Bankotsu called to me.

"Hm?" I looked up at him only to find him peeing on a tree. "AGH!" I nearly fell over as I caught sight of his lower regions. "PUT YOUR PANTS ON!" I hollered out, covering my eyes.

"HAHAHA! I GOTCHA GOOD, KYO!" Bankotsu chuckled as he threw an arm around my shoulder, after placing his pants on again of course.

"You jerk!" I yelled as I bonked him on the head.

He just kept laughing and led me back onto the path that led to the village. I silently seethed and turned my head away from him.

"Oh, c'mon Kyo. Ya know it was funny!"

"Nope."

"I know you liked what you saw!" He wiggled his eyebrows.

"Bankotsu! SHUT UP!"

"I'm kiiidinnnggg, sheesh." I calmed a little at that, but it was short lived, "Nah, I know you want me."

"You are so stupid.." I sighed and kept walking.

After more minutes of bickering we arrived at the village.

"Kamihachi Village, ne?" Bankotsu said, reading the sign just in front of us.

"Wooow, the big bad mercenary can read! How amazing!" I said with sarcastic amazement.

Bankotsu squinted at me and whipped his head away from my direction and started off into the village. I giggled a little, er well A LOT, and then followed after him. I was too wrapped up in my thoughts that i didn't notice him stop walking. I ran right into his back and almost fell onto my ass. I glared at Bankotsu's back until he grabbed me quickly and threw is into the nearby bushes.

"Mask our aura's." He whispered hurriedly.

I did as told and gave him a questioning look. He moved my head so that I could peak out of the bushes. There stood Kikyo looking around intently. I knew she must have barely sensed us before I masked our aura's. I didn't even flinch when she looked at the bush I was hiding in. She began to walk towards the bush when an old man ran up to her.

"PRIESTESS, PRIESTESS! COME QUICK!" He yelled in horror.

"What is it?" She asked in fake worry as she grabbed his shoulder.

"My daughter has died! Please come quick!" He cried out.

Kikyo let the man lead her to his deceased daughter . After a moment, I stood up and dusted off my outfit. bankotsu just kept looking at me like I was insane, however.

"What?!"

"She looked right at us and you just kept looking!" Bankotsu bit out.

"Are you scared of that pathetic excuse for a priestess?" I asked him in a bored tone.

"NO! I just don't wanna ruin this plan, duh!"

"Suuuure. Let's get a room, ne?" I asked, changing the subject as I began to walk away from him.

"You got money?" My eyes widened as I looked at him, "Just kidding, I'm a mercenary! I'm loaded!"

"You're gonna make me murder you..." I seethed.

"Hey, then maybe you can join the band of seven! We'll call it the Band of Seven plus Lady Kyoko." He smiled, picturing it in his head, "Then you can help us reproduce baby mercenaries!"

"SHUT UP!"


It took five minutes for us to get the master suite at the inn. I must say, Bankotsu has his ways.. The innkeeper led us to our room and closed the door behind us. I caught Bankotsu smirking and glared at him.

"What's so funny, hm?"

"Looks like we're sharing a bed yet again, Lady Kyoko."

"I think I'll let you have the floor this time, actually." I replied as I laid in the bed.

"Ooooh no. I paid for this damn bed! SHARING!" He jumped in bed next to me and then proceeded to hog all the covers.

"Bankotsu! Give me the blanket!"

"Naaahhhh."

"UGH!"

Finally Bankotsu let me have the covers and I turned my back to him.

"G'night, Kyo!"

"Yeah, night."

Dream

It was dark outside and I was at a hot spring.. but I wasn't alone. Bankotsu stood right in front of me in all his manhood. This time, however, I didn't close my eyes. I just stared. I didn't even want to look away. Then i realized he was staring at me and the noticed I was nude as well. We began to make our way towards each other and once our bodies met.. we kissed. It felt so wonderful, I can't even explain!

"Ban.." I moaned into his mouth.

"Kyo..wake...up"

"Hm?"

I sat straight up in bed to find Bankotsu staring wildly at me.

"Oh god.." We just shared that dream.. :Whose dream was tha-" I was cut off by Bankotsu's mouth smashing against mine.


I gave ya some fluff at the end. Sorry if they're OOC, it's because they're extremely comfortable around eachother.

DONT QUESTION IT JUST ENJOY IT!
