Doshta, Inu-Yasha?

Inu-Yasha dashed through the woods, going as fast as possible to Kaede-baba's house. As he entered the village, he heard snatches of whispering like, "That's Inu-Yasha! Isn't he supposed to be dead?" "Hai! That's why Kagome-sama was so sad!" "They said she was kidnapped by Sesshoumaru!" Most of the villagers glared at him from their houses, knowing he wasn't supposed to be there. Inu-Yasha snarled at them. If they wouldn't respect him, then they would fear him!

Before Inu-Yasha could react, a furry ball threw itself around him. That "furry ball" was actually Shippo!

"Inu-Yasha! I never thought I'd say this, demo, I missed you!"

Inu-Yasha coldly pried the little kitsune off.

Shippo's eyes widened in surprise. * Inu-Yasha would NEVER let me cling to him like that, without yelling my ears off! * He narrowed his eyes in suspicion. * There's something funny going on with him. *

Inu-Yasha saw the change in the kitsune's eyes, and realized he did something wrong. His mind raced, trying to think of what he did. Then he remembered. It was too late though, and he knew it. So he went tot plan B.

He grabbed Shippo by the neck and began to choke him. "You'd better tell me where Kagome is. Or else." He tightened his grip on Shippo to emphasize his point. Shippo could tell that this WAS NOT the kind of choking he did just to be mean. This was very, very serious!

Shippo nodded quickly, thinking as fast as he could. "If you put me down *gasp* I'll take you to Kagome." Inu-Yasha put him down. The kitsune took prayer beads Kagome gave him for emergencies, tossed them over Inu- Yasha and screamed, "STAY!" (Yes, it has been changed, because he and Kagome can't say the same thing, can they?) Inu-Yasha slammed to the ground. "Gomen Inu-Yasha, demo, we need to get Kaede to come and see what's up with you." He put the "baby monk" statue on him, just to be extra careful, and ran off the get the old priestess.

Like? No like?
