Chapter 10
"I told you there where people!" a dark brown-haired girl shouted at her partner. She had these dark brown eyes too. Her hair was wavy and she wore a light blue kimono. She was sitting on the ground, rubbing her head.
'Was she the one to make that loud noise? Did she fall?!' I thought, amazed.
"Yeah, but you didn't say demons too didja? Now we're going to die!" her partner, shouted back. She also had dark brown hair but this time it was in curls. She had light brown eyes and she wore a light green kimono. She helped her frist friend up.
They glared at each other.
I cleared my throat. They didn't listen.
"AHEM!" I shouted. They turned to look at me.
"KYAAA! SHE'S GOING TO KILL US! LOOK, SHE'S AN INU YOUKAI!" both girls screamed, scrambling away.
I gasped. "Nuh uh! I don't shed blood. AndI'm only a hanyou. Come here."
They slowly walked over and stood in front of me, then saw Ryuu. They screamed and ran back to the spot they were. "HE'S FULL RIGHT?"
I shook my head. "Nope."
"But she is! And her! And her!" they both cried.
"Are you two twins or something?" I asked, raising my eyebrow at how they said things at the same time.
"Nah." they both said.
"Weird. I don't even do that with my twin!" I exclaimed.
"You have a twin?" they stepped closer.
Then, Kimiko came. "I'm only human."
They saw her and smiled. "Good. We're scared of demons."
"Well, no demons with us are going to hurt you. We're all very friendly. So, what're your names?" I asked. I took them by the hand and led them over to have a drink.
"I'm Kamin." The first girl said. "I'm Karin." the second girl said.
I smiled. "Cool. I'm Yumiko."
"And I'm Ryuu. Don't worry. I only hurt those who are our enemies." he said, winking.
"I'm Kimiko. Over there sleeping is Akihiko. He's only six so even though he's full youkai, he won't hurt ya. He just likes to play." Kimiko said looking over to the sleeping kitsune. Beside him was Kanako. "That's Kanako. She's only human sometimes. Other times she's in her neko form."
"There's also four more people. A human named Kohana, a hanyou that looks like me, Inuyoshi. He's my twin. Masaru and Tsuki are out looking for Michiko, who got kidnapped yesterday. We split up for a reason." I said.
Then, at perfect timing, Kohana and Inuyoshi walked back into the clearing, Kohana's face pink from blushing and Inuyoshi happy from boasting.
I rolled my eyes.
"Woah! So he's your twin?" Karin asked.
I nodded.
"So, what are you girls doing out here?" Ryuu asked.
Kamin sighed. "We're looking for someone by the name Nakaru. He ruined our village and as the two best fighters we were forced to leave our home and hunt him down so he can be executed."
I gasped. "We're looking for him too! He took Michiko!"
"Really?" they both asked, wide-eyed. "We can't let him get away!"
"Let's travel together then." Kimiko suggested.
"Yeah!" I shouted happily. It was great to have extra people along.
I looked over to Kohana and Inuyoshi again and felt the hurt pile up. I sighed. "Don't worry about it, Yumi."
Then, after Akihiko woke up, we were on our way again.
"I bet Inuyoshi and Kohana haven't even noticed that we have two extra people tagging along." I said, angrily.
"Calm down, Yumiko! You're scary that way." Ryuu joked. I glared at him.
"Sorry." he said, sheepishly. I smiled and punched him gently on the arm.
"Owww." he whined, playfully. I laughed.
Maybe this wasn't so bad...
At Tsuki's Home
"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR KOUGA!" Ayame cried out, angrily.
"WOMAN! STOP SHOUTING!" Kouga shouted.
"FIND MY BABY OR ELSE I WON'T EVER LET YOU COME HERE AGAIN! UNTIL YOU FIND HER, YOU WILL NOTRETURN! AND IF YOU DO RETURN WITHOUT HER, YOU WILL NEVER SEE YOUR OTHER KITS OR TRIBE AGAIN!" Ayame shouted at the top of her lungs. She took a deep breath. "Go."
Kouga huffed. "Fine."
"GO!"
"Ok! Ok!" He backed away and darted into the forest to look for the others.
"Man, I can't believe I have to ask the mutt if he has seen my daughter. How embarassing!" Kouga muttered. In turth, he did miss Tsuki...a lot. He didn't really want her to leave. And how was she surviviing? What would he do if sometihng had happened to her? Oh his baby! kouga growled, angry at himself.
Finally, Inuyasha's house came in view.
"Inuyasha! Mutt, you home?" Kouga asked, pounding on the door.
Inuyasha opened it, making Kouga fall flat on his face.
"What do you want, wolf?" Inuyasha huffed.
"Have you seen Tsuki anywhere? She left a couple of days ago." Kouga asked, his face flushed.
Inuyasha laughed. "Didn't she go on the camping trip with her friends? Like, with my daughter and son, Masaru and Michiko, Kimiko, your daughter, Akihiko, Kanako, and oh yes, some of Yumiko's friends."
Kouga's face went from the light pink to a bright red. "Oh, er... Thanks." He ran off before Inuyasha could say anymore.
"Stupid wolf." Inuyasha muttered.
Kouga ran and ran straight home, hoping Ayame hadn't started packing up.
"Ayame!" Kouga shouted.
She appeared at the mouth of the cave. "Where is she? You don't have her! Ok, good-bye."
"NO, wait dammit! Tsuki went camping with her friends!" Kouga insisted.
"Cam-ping?" Ayame muttered. "What's that?"
"I don't know but apparently all of her friends went too." Kouga said, walking in to relaxed on the bench. Inuyasha was damn lucky he had gotten a 'sofa'. It was so comfy and bouncy.
"I see. GET OFF THE DAN SEAT AND GET TO WORK!" Ayame shouted once again.
Kouga groaned but did what he was told.
At Nakaru's Castle
Mei groaned as she walked slowly up the steps towards the high tower, which was all of the little brat. She was so damn lucky. She didn't have to share a servant quarter's with other people. She got a whole damn tower to herself! Mei was bringing the girl her lunch.
Mei sneered and looked around, then popped some food poisoning into the food. She had collected some of the miasma from what the cook used to capture animals.
"Now she's going to die." Mei said happily. "Then, Nakaru would be mine."
She walked happily up the remaining stairs and knocked on the door.
Michiko was sitting inside, looking out at all the forest thinking. How could she have kissed him or let him kiss her? She barely knew it! It was such a dirty thing to do. Her father didn't even do that with her mom. He said it was dirty and it was very disturbing to people with a sense of intelligence.
Then the knock came on her door.
"Yes? Come in." Michiko said, getting used to this 'lady' thing.
"Lady Michiko." Mei said, curtsying. "Your lunch."
Mei walked over to the table and placed the tray down.
"Thank you." Michiko said lazily. She was in no mood to eat. "You may leave, Mei."
Mei bowed and left, an evil grin on her face. Yes! The plan worked!
Michiko walked over slowly to the table. She peered at the food. It did not look tasty.
She sighed and flopped onto her bed, staring at the ceiling. She knew she had to eat or else Nakaru would freak on her so she got back up and walked over to the table.
But before she could pick up the dish, something smashed into her window, making her push the table. The dishes clashed to the floor.
"KYAA!" Michiko screamed.
"YES!" Mei cried out, bursting into the room. She was listening from outside. "She's de-"
Mei looked at Michiko, the food at her feet. Michiko was walking over to the window, and there sat a little blue-bird, who probably hit the window.
Mei was about to leave when Michiko said, "Stay, Mei."
"Yes, Lady Michiko." Mei said, bowing her head. She was in such trouble.
"Bring me some water and a cage for this little bird. Then, call Nakaru here. After, tell the cook to get some bird food. You must bring it all here and lead Nakaru here specifically." Michiko ordered. Once Mei left, the tears flowed down her face. Why had Mei wanted to kill her? Michiko had noticed how the food dispersed due to the poison. She was lucky she didn't eat anything.
Michiko wiped away her tears when Mei walked back in, with Nakaru at her heels. Mei was carrying two bowls and a cage.
She placed the things down and was about to leave.
"Mei. Stand there." Michiko ordered. Mei frozed.
"What's wrong?" Nakaru asked, sitting down beside her. Michiko stood up and walked over to the cage placing him in. She filled the water and then put the food in there with the water.
Then, she turned around to face Nakaru, her face red. "Did you try to kill me?"
He looked horrified. "What?"
"Did you try to kill me?" Michiko repeated.
"Why would I do that?" He asked.
"There was poison in my food. The food dispersed, see?" Michiko said, pointing to the food on the ground and the dishes.
He glared at Mei, making her uncomfortable. "What happened? Call the cook. NOW!"
Mei scrambled down the stairs, freaked out. She was going to get beheaded!
But she did what she was told and called the cook. They both stood in the room.
"Who poisoned the food?" Nakaru asked, glaring at both of them.
"I didn't, Lord Nakaru." the cook said quickly.
He looked at Mei. "Mei?"
Tears rolled down her face. "Yes, Sir."
"You did?" he asked, surprised. Michiko gasped. "Why?"
"Because! It's not fair, Nakaru! I've been here my whole life! I grew up with you! And, I'm casted as a servant while that girl gets her own tower, beautiful clothes and you while she's only been her for less then two days!" Mei cried, letting it all out. "What does she have that I don't? What is it about her that you love? How is she more then me?"
Nakaru sighed. "Mei, do you know what this means?"
"That I'm totally in love with someone I can't be in love with?" she asked, begging with her eyes.
"Noo..."
"That I'm going to be beheaded, right?" she asked, sighing. "I won't do it again!"
Michiko looked at Nakaru. "Don't behead her!"
"Why not? She tried to kill you!" Nakaru asked, looking back at her.
Michiko looked to the ground. "Just don't."
Nakaru sighed. "Fine. Mei, this means that you have to pack up and leave from here. You are no longer welcome. This is a light punishment. You're lucky Michiko was here."
Michiko smiled and walked over to Mei. "I'm sorry. I didn't know. Please, I can't help you any more. Take care."
Mei smiled a sad smile. "Take care, Lady Michiko."
Michiko nodded.
"You may both leave." Nakaru said, motioning them away. The cook and Mei left.
"Michiko! What did you do that for?" Nakaru asked.
"I don't want to see blood." Michiko said. "I'm scared of it."
"It's not like I'll kill her in front of you."
"Still! What if she haunts this place? I'm terribly scared of ghosts and scary stories!"
"Fine, fine."
She smiled. "There's also another matter."
"What is that?" he asked, patting the spot beside him. She rejected it and walked towards the window.
He went to stand beside her. "What is it?"
"I miss my parents. Someday, I want to return." Michiko said. "They are probably still looking for me. I want them to know I'm ok."
"Soon." he said and they both looked out at the green forest.
good bye Mei. I seriously didn't like her. I definitely don't want Michiko to be dead. But hmm...is this the end to her? What do you think? Review!
So two more charaters, Kamin and Karin. Sweet. I wonder what's going to happen?
