The Wizard and the Half-Demon

Awsmpup is standing in front of Howl, who's tied to a chair, with Inuyasha and Sharkey behind her passing time

Howl: So, why did you want me again?

Me: *starts to say something and then freezes* Uh...

Howl: *blinks*

Inu: *raises an eyebrow* You forgot, didn't you?

Me: *blushes a little* Uh, maybe...

Inu & Howl: *blankly stare at Me*

Me: *glares at Inu & Howl* Don't judge me!

Inu & Howl: *flinch*

Me: *turns to reviewers* Sorry for the wait that I said probably wouldn't happen. I wanted to finish Ch.3 of ATLA before I finished this one, since I haven't updated that story for a while because of stupid Netflix... Plus I kinda went on an X-men rampage overdrive. I just got the sudden urge to read every one of my X-men fav. fanfics and watch all my favorite episode of every kind of X-men show out there.

Inu & Howl: *give me looks*

Me: *stares back and blinks* What?

Inu & Howl: *sigh and shakes their heads*

Me: ANYWAY! Here's the next chapter! Oh, and I got a review that says I'm a plagiarist. *starts to cry* I'm not a plagiarist. I don't own anything and I also seem to recall that I add my own dialogue. I'm just following the movie in my own view with my own version of Sophie. But still, I want to know if anyone else think I'm plagiarizing.

Sharkey: Woof!

Inu & Howl: *stare at Sharkey, freak out* The shark is barking...

Me: *stares at them with an eyebrow raised* Uh, yeah. Your point?

Inu & Howl: *look away slowly* Nothing...

Me: *shrugs*

Ch.10

Why is someone walking around so late?!

Wait...HOWL!

I sit straight up and look at the stairs. (AN: Just so you know, she has her wolf features again)

He's not there, but I hear the sound of a door closing.

"That was Howl, right?" I ask myself.

I look at the floor thinking, and see a big raven footprint and a black feather.

I raise my eyebrow.

I mean, seriously. Why the heck is there a human sized raven footprint and a feather on the ground?! It's not like Howl can turn into some sort of humanoid raven...right?

I pick up the feather. Or at least try. Once I pick it up a little bit, it disintegrates.

Uh, yeah, that's normal...

I grab my boots and quickly put them on. I guess I kicked off my blanket, because it's on the ground.

I get up and light a candle.

I slowly walk to the stairs. There's more feathers and footprints.

Ok, now I'm worried.

I walk up the stairs and look down the hallway.

Guess what I found.

More feathers and footprints.

So basically the feathers and footprints are all around the house. At least, the path to Howl's room.

I walk down the hallway to Howl's door.

"Howl?" I call from outside. I'm not going to go inside without permission. Well, not without warning him.

I open the door and walk in.

A long tunnel is inside, instead of his room.

I walk down it, holding up my candle.

The tunnel is made up of the things that were in Howl's room and dirt.

And now I have no idea what to do.

I've come to a fork in the road. There's two paths in front of me.

Which one? Which one?

Wind blows through...Where did that even come from? Does one tunnel lead to outside or something?

Oh well.

I close my eyes and points one finger out.

"Eenie meenie miney moe, catch a toe by the toe, eenie meenie miney moe, my mother said to pick the very best one, and you are it!" I chant. I open my eyes to see I'm pointing left.

I know, not the best way to find my way, but I don't have many options. My hearing isn't what it used to be. Oh great, now I sound like an old woman!

Ugg! My life keeps getting better and better.

I walk left and then I hear deep breathing, but it sounds more like gasping.

As I get further in the tunnel, the toys turns into feathers that are sticking to the walls and cieling.

I get to a giant moving blue-black ball of feathers.

I walk closer to it with curious eyes.

"Howl? Is that you?" I ask slowly. I mean, I go into his room and see all kinds of tunnels and end up near a giant puff ball. It's going to take a while to process.

I wait a bit, but I get no answer.

"I'm going to guess yes" I say, "Uh, are you in pain? Can I help?"

"Go away" a deep rasping voice says.

I shake my head.

"Not gonna happen, Blue Ball. I'm gonna help ya break your spell!" I say, proudly and determined.

He gets up slowly. "You. You can't even break your own spell."

Well. That was a low blow.

I give him a look.

"Look, I don't care what'cha think. I'm gonna help you whether you like it or not!" I say, and call it impulse but I can't believe I'm gonna say it, "I love you!"

I stop for a second and sweatdrop. 'Uh, you can go ahead and forget that last bit.'

"You're too late!" he says and he moves forward with a burst of wind.

My eyes widen.

"HOWL, NO!" I yell, as he leaves. (AN: She turns back into a human)

33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333 33333333333333333333333333333333

I jump up at the sound of rushing water.

I look up the stairs.

I turn to Cal.

"Hey Cal, did Howl just get in?" I ask.

"Yeah, and he looks terrible! You better find a way to break our spell quick! Howl's running out of time. I hope you know that" Cal whispers back, because Camilla is still sleeping.

I glare at him.

"You mean, he'll become a monster? Is that it?!" I growl as demonly as possible, because, well, you know, I'm human now.

"I can't tell you the details of the curse. You should know by now, wolfie. Come on!" Cal says, annoyed.

I get up and walk to him.

"You know what Madame Sullivan said. She said that Howl's heart was stolen by a demon. Tell me now, what do you know?" I ask, slyly.

"I'm so sorry, but I'm afraid that that's confidential information" Cal says snidely.

"How about I dump a bucket of water on you!" I say annoyed, with my hands on my hips.

"If you drown me, then Howl will die too!" Cal says.

We have a glaring contest, and as always, I win.

Cal backs down and sighs.

"Look, Soph, I know you want to help but I seriously can't tell you" Cal says.

I cross my arms over my chest and I look away stubbornly, humphing.

"Sophie..." Cal says.

I humph again and walk outside.

Once I'm outside, I walk to the edge of the cliff the house is resting on.

I sigh and uncross my arms.

I look back at the house with sad eyes, specifically Howl's room.

I guess for some reason, I like him a little. Just a bit. UGH! Ok, I guess I'm in love with him.

Then I turn to the giant hole in the side and grimace.

I hear something behind me and turn to see Turnip Head.

"Hey Turnip Head" I say, and then I turn back to the hole, "This isn't going to be easy."

Well, better get back to bed. We have a long day tomorrow and I need all the sleep I can get.

End of Ch.10

Me: YAY! Finally! I'll update my other stories soon, don't worry.

Howl: Yeah that's great. Can you untie me now?

Me: *glares at Howl* No!

Howl: Why not?!

Me: *rolls eyes* Stop whining. I'll untie you when Sophie gets here.

Howl: *gets a worried look* Sophie? But isn't she hormonal from being pregnant?

Me: *grins evilly* Yep! Good luck!

A voice calls from another room.

: HOWL!

Howl: *looks horror stricken and then turns to Inu* Hey, dog! Untie me and I'll get you away from Senorita Psycho

Inu: *gets a thoughtful look*

Me: *glares at Inu* Don't you dare...

Inu: *looks at Me and then looks at Howl* Ok, one, don't call me a dog. And two, deal! *quickly cuts Howl's ropes*

Howl: *jumps up, grabs Inu, and both disappear*

Me: *blinks and then narrows eyes* HOWL! INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Sophie: *walks in with a little bump on her stomach* Where's Howl?

Me: *turns slowly to Sophie* Your Husband decided to bail when I said you were coming.

Sophie: *narrows eyes* I'll be right back *leaves room*

Me: Uh, ok. *turns to reviewers* Um, so please review. Like seriously, tell me if you think I'm plagiarizing. Cause, I don't think I am.

Sophie: *comes back in with rope and mallets* Here *hands me a rope and mallet, while keeping one of each for herself*

Me: *takes rope and mallet, then look at them curiously* Uh, why do we need these?

Sophie: We're going on a wizard/hanyou hunt

Me: OH! Wait, we need a way to track them

Sharkey: Woof!

Me: Oh yeah! Sharkey!

Sharkey: WOOF WOOF! *looks at me, expectantly*

Me: Sharkey, *says dangerously* sick 'em

Sharkey: *narrows eyes and growls* RUFF! *runs out of the room*

Me: *points at Sharkey* After that shark!

Me & Sophie: *runs after Sharkey*
