Inu-Yasha: A Fuedal Fairy Tale Vol. Y: A Second Encounter!
"So, this mini-god attacked you?" Inu-Yasha said, looking on with interest.
"Yes, and very powerful was he!" Lady Keade said.
"And you know him, Miroku?"
"Yes, he and my father worked together for a while. But I had no idea he would turn out like that!" Miroku said shaking his head.
"What was his name again?" Inu-Yasha asked.
"Hebi, that was it," Miroku said, having to think of the name.
"What's wrong Inu-Yasha? You sound like you have heard of him before," Kagome said, taking notice of Inu-Yasha's numerous questions.
"Well, I don't know. His name sounds familiar. I can't think of where I've heard it before, for the life of me!"
"Well, he was powerful! Very powerful! That's all I know!" Sango said, stroking Kirara delicately.
"I'd like to meet up with this guy! Just to see who he really is!" Inu- Yasha said holding his fists up.
"I'm going to go play with Kirara!"
"Ok, but be careful, Shippou, and take care of Kirara!" Sango yelled after him.
"Kirara! Come back!" Shippou cried as Kirara went into one part of the dark forest.
"Slow down, Kirara!" Then, Kirara's tails stiffened, and back arched.
"What is it, Kirara? What do you see?" Shippou said running over to where Kirara stood.
Something moved in the bushes. Kirara let out a low growl. All of a sudden, a figure jumped out of the bushes. Kirara jumped back, as well as Shippou. The figure stood before them, and bent down. It was a boy, about the same height as Shippou, as well as age.
"Hello," the boy stood up, revealing a pale face. He was wearing a black kimono. "My name is Moshua. Who are you?" he said, a smile on his face.
"Well." Shippou thought for a moment, trying to take this all in. "My name is Shippou."
"It's nice to meet you Shippou! Wanna play?" he asked, the smile still on his face.
"Ummm. sure." Kirara growled. "It's okay, Kirara. At least I think!" Shippou bent down to stroke Kirara.
"That's a beautiful. animal you have there!" Moshua said, not sure what to call it. "Can I pet it?"
"Sure! Just rub her fur in the right direction, or you'll get a terrible scratch!"
"Ok!"
The two played all afternoon.
"SHIPOUUUUU!!!!!!!" Sango called out across the field, beckoning Shippou to come to supper.
"Well, I have to go now, but I'll see you tomorrow!" said Shippou.
"All right! See you tomorrow!" Moshua said, waving a friendly hand.
"Shippou, who was that you were playing with?" Sango asked as they sipped their tea.
"Oh, his name was Moshua. He and I are friends now!" he responded, giving Sango a reassuring smile.
"Where does he live?" Kagome asked.
"Don't know! He never did tell me!" Shippou said shrugging her shoulders.
"Well, did he say his last name?" Miroku asked, suspicion in his voice.
"No, no last name," Shippou said, not concerned.
The next day, Shippou went out to see Moshua. He was waiting by the trees.
"Moshua! Hey!"
"Hello, Shippou! Where's Kirara?"
"I couldn't bring her. Sango needed her."
"Sango, who's that?"
"Oh, she's one of my friends!"
"Oh really?" he said with a smirk on his face.
"What's the matter, let's go play!"
"Right."
Once again, they played the day through, until it was almost time to go.
"Well, I gotta go home, see ya later, Moshua!"
"No, Shippou! Stay here a little while longer!"
"I have to go or Sango will be mad again!"
"Forget her! Come play!" Moshua said, a gleam in his eye.
"No! I have to go!" Shippou said starting to get mad.
"You bi." Moshua raised his arm up and hit Shippou hard on the neck, hitting a vein. It caused him to pass out immediately. Moshua took him up into his arms. "This will be a good gift to master! I'm sure he'll find a way to use him!" He then ran off carrying Shippou.
"SHIPPOU! SHIPPOU! THE TEA IS ON! SHIPPOU?!?!" Sango yelled. "SHIPPOU? SHIPPOU, YOU BETTER COME!" When Sango had nearly gone hoarse from yelling, she went out into the fields to look for Shippou. When Sango had come back empty handed, she went into the hut. "Kagome, Miroku, I can't find Shippou!"
"Well, maybe he's playing hide and seek!" Miroku said, sipping his tea.
"He would have come by now!" Sango said, a little worried.
"Did you look all over the fields?" Kagome asked, also concerned.
"Yes! That's where I just got back from! I didn't see him anywhere!"
"I have a very bad feeling about this!" Lady Keade said, her eyes wide. "Who did you say that he was playing with the other day?"
"Some boy named Moshua," Sango said, her voice shaky.
"It's all right we'll find him!" Kagome said reassuringly.
"I think I know where he is!" Lady Keade said. "Or at least the direction the kidnapper is heading!"
"Well, hurry! We have to find him!" Sango said desperately.
"Inu-Yasha, stay here!" Lady Keade said, turning her head to the half- demon.
"Listen, old lady. Do you actually think I'll take orders from you?" he said, cocking his head to the side.
"No, but it was worth a try!" Lady Keade said, smiling.
"Let's go!!!!" Sango said.
They set out on the journey. Using Inu-Yasha's instincts, and Lady Keade's knowledge they trekked on.
'Oh, I sure hope we find Shippou! I couldn't bear losing someone else. I mean, he's like my family!' Sango thought, looking at the setting sun. Will they ever find Shippou?
"So, this mini-god attacked you?" Inu-Yasha said, looking on with interest.
"Yes, and very powerful was he!" Lady Keade said.
"And you know him, Miroku?"
"Yes, he and my father worked together for a while. But I had no idea he would turn out like that!" Miroku said shaking his head.
