A/n- I'm sry I couldn't get this chapter out for a while. Long story, just read. (The name of Mika's sword might change and the characters might be a little OOC in this chapter.)Disclaimer- I do not own Inuyasha.
The 8 of them were heading to Totosai. Mika was healing pretty quickly considering how badly Sessomaru had hurt her. On occasion they would run into some smaller demons but nothing too challenging. Kagome still wouldn't let Mika fight.
"She's ok! Jeez! If she can walk she can fight. Not like we're getting anything tough here!" Inuyasha and Kagome were fighting. Sango, Miroku, and Shippo were laughing in the background. Mika was one other thing they could fight about. Personally, Mika was siding with Inuyasha. In her opinion she wasn't hurt badly enough to fight. It was funny to watch though.
"I don't care! I've watched you enough. If she's anything like you she is not going to let those heal!"
"Do they always do this?" Mika asked.
"Yep" Sango and Miroku said in unison.
"If their lives were in danger you can bet they'd find something to fight about." Shippo said.
"Sit boy!" Inuyasha collided with the ground.
"Well there ya have it, that's the end of our entertainment." Miroku said. Inuyasha picked up his head.
"You think that's funny!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Actually I do." Shippo said. Inuyasha knocked him on the head. "Kagome!" Shippo pleaded.
"Inuyasha" Inuyasha turned around and whined. "Sit boy!" Inuyasha once again collided with the ground.
"Would you stop with that!" Inuyasha picked up his head. Mika started giggling and everyone but Inuyasha started cracking up. He just stood there with a pout on his face. When the laughing subsided they started to walk on. For the rest of the trip that took them about 2 days this happened a lot. Inuyasha and Kagome would fight and it would just end in him getting sat and everyone but Inuyasha would start laughing. Mika thought of how much each of them had gone through yet they still laughed. 'Sango, Miroku, and Shippo seem used to this. They must fight like this a lot.' Mika thought it was funny but she didn't understand why they fought so much.
"Inuyasha is probably the shortest tempered person you will ever meet. Pretty much anything makes him mad. Kagome uses her command on him a lot and this probably jumbled up his brain." Sango giggled. "It makes him really mad too. I wouldn't know that far back in their roots though. I was the last one to join the group."
"Who was the first?" Mika asked.
"Shippo, Inuyasha and Kagome helped him to avenge his father's death." Sango answered. 'Poor Shippo' Mika thought.
"We're getting closer." Inuyasha called from ahead. "I can smell the ash from here." Mika sniffed the air.
"Yah I can smell it too." Mika said. Inuyasha smiled. "What are you so smiley about?" Mika asked. She'd caught up with him.
"Do ya get the feeling people think of you as a dog?" Inuyasha asked.
"Well you sure look like one." Kagome grabbed one of his ears and Inuyasha looked annoyed. Mika giggled. Akiko grabbed one of Mika's ears and Mika hit Akiko with the back of her fist. Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kagome broke into hysterical laughter.
"What's so funny?" Mika growled.
"You're just…like…your father." Sango said between laughs. Akiko got up and was grumbling curses under her breath.
"Can we get a move on! We are looking for this Totosai person right? I would like to get a sword before I die thank you." Mika said and Sango giggled. Mika growled. They all started to walk off with Akiko rubbing her eye where Mika had hit her. Within about a day they got to Totosai.
"Totosai!" Inuyasha shouted. "Totosai!" He shouted again.
"Maybe he's not here." Mika said. "You haven't saw him in over 13 years right."
"Not likely. The old man wasn't much for traveling. Let's go in." Inuyasha stepped forward and walked into the cave. "There he is. He's sleeping. Figures." Inuyasha walked up to Totosai and hit him on the head. Totosai jumped up and braced himself for attack but when he saw Inuyasha he realized his mistake.
"Inuyasha, why are you here?" Totosai asked. Inuyasha stepped aside to make Mika visible.
"This is Mika, my daughter." Totosai looked at Mika.
"She does resemble you doesn't she." Totosai observed. "Now we want to make a sword for her right? Inuyasha, open up wide for me will you?" Inuyasha opened his mouth.
"Like this?" Inuyasha said. Totosai nodded and he quickly reached in and pulled out a fang with his clamp. Inuyasha yelled and punched Totosai on his head. Totosai got up and rubbed the bump where Inuyasha had hit him. "What'd ya do that for?!" Inuyasha yelled at him.
"Oh calm down! Your fang will grow back in a mere half a day! This isn't the first time I have used your fang to forge a sword. The Tetsusaiga was reforged with your fang." Inuyasha looked away and pouted. "Come back in three days and I will have a sword for Mika. Do you have any requests in powers for the sword?"
"Um she can use the Wind Scar. But when she transforms she doesn't lose control." Inuyasha said.
"It would be better if I didn't transform though because, I dunno, it's kinda weird. When it happened I collapsed right after." Totosai nodded. "I want something like the Wind Scar, that was cool." They finished talking and Mika, Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippo, Miroku, Sango, and Akiko all left. For the time it took for Totosai to make the sword the group trained Mika.
"You take a head start." Inuyasha and Mika were racing. Mika started running and Inuyasha followed shortly behind. Mika was sure she had him beat. She heard a rush of wind beside her and looked over to see Inuyasha. Mika put on an extra burst of energy but her dad easily matched it. Mika never had any practice. This put Inuyasha at a serious advantage. Mika could tell he wasn't going to go easy on her, but got an idea. Mika used her tail to propel her in a way. By swishing it from side to side she could get more distance on her jumps. Mika outdistanced Inuyasha for a minute and when he tried to catch up to her the current coming from Mika's tail knocked him back. Inuyasha hit the ground hard but looked up and smiled. "Not bad."
