Disclaimer: I don't own Inu-Yasha (I wish) or Kagome (I wish) or Sango (I wish) or Miroku (I wish) or Kouga (I wish) or Kikyo (I'm glad ^^).
Hiya! I'm back and I'm sorry for this long wait between chapters. What's it been, 500 YEARS?? I've been busy! I know, I know, that's what they all say but it's true! I Have been working on my royal fic but I was quite surprised when I was getting more reviews for this one to keep it going. I really don't know where I'm going with this one or how I'm going to end it but...I'll keep up the chapters as best as I can as long as you guys keep up the reviews! Deal? ^.~
Chapter 8
The wind blew the heavy rain over the forest. Dark trees loomed up hanging over the unoccupied, muddy paths. The only sound heard for miles around was wind howling through the trees except for.....
"Kagome? Is it just me or is the flashlight dimmer than it was 20 seconds ago?" Mother Nature failed to conquer the voice of Inu-Yasha.
"I've been trying to ignore that for the past hour. This stupid....useless.... flashlight gobbles up batteries like...um...well..."
"Like you gobble up Oden, right?"
"Wonderful metaphor!"
"Are you sure metaphor is the right word?"
"No I'm not, but what difference does it make?" Kagome snapped. She was down right frustrated. Actually, pissed is a better way to describe her mood. She was getting her poncho muddy from splutting around in the undergrowth (or is it overgrowth? I don't see a difference) and she liked this poncho. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled and....Kagome shrieked. Inu-Yasha found himself holding her princess style with her quivering in fear. The flashlight had finally gone out. Inu-Yasha smirked.
"Aww, don't tell me big, strong, terrifying Kagome is terrified of the dark!"
"N-n-no! Th-th-that's n-not I-I-I-it! I-I-I-it's th-th-th-the th-thunder." She squeaked.
"Ah! I see! Is widdle Kagome afraid of it because she knows that she can't hurt SOUND WAVES with her big scary sledgehammer or her arrows?"
"....."
"They are only sound waves!" Inu-Yasha tutted. Kagome leapt again as the thunder boomed overhead.
"Sh-sh-sh-shut up!!"
Inu-Yasha smirked.
"And it's not just an ordinary sledgehammer! It has a name you know!"
Inu-Yasha looked at her funny and this uncalled-for remark, even though she couldn't see his face in the dark.
"And so does my bow." She continued. He nearly dropped her.
"and you know what?"
"What?" believing that nothing would shock him now.
"All of my arrows have their names carved into them."
Inu-Yasha dropped her.
"What the heck did you do that for??? Whatdahelliswrongwidu? Huh??" she spat mud from her mouth.
"Y-you! Whatdahelliswrongwidu??" Thunder boomed again. Kagome ran and hid behind a tree.
"You idiot! I was only trying to take my mind of the stupid noise coming from the clouds or however thunder is created." (I'm not very bright at times you see...otherwise Kagome would have known how thunder was created...and I'm too lazy to look it up...-_-;)
"Positive?"
"Ya!" Kagome replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, "honestly! What idiot would name a sledgehammer??" she muttered.
"Keh." Inu-Yasha stated, relieved that the girl he li-, err- that Kagome was not insane enough to have taken the time to have thought up names for inanimate objects.
"I thought you said Feh!"
"Keh!"
"You didn't answer me. It's Feh!"
"Keh!"
"Feh!"
"Keh!"
"Feh!"
"Keh!!!!"
"Feh!!!!!!"
"KEH!!
"FEH!"
"KEH! KEH! KEH!"
"FEH! FEH! FEH!" "KEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEHKEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"O_____o"
"Keh."
"Ok! Ok! I get it! Really I do!!" Slightly scared Kagome replied.
CRAC-KABOOM!!
Kagome 'eep!'ed buried her face into Inu-Yasha's terribly wet and muddy poncho. Actually it was Sango's poncho but Inu-Yasha was wearing it at the moment. He blinked.
"K-Kagome?"
Kagome looked up into his soft, golden eyes, blushed, and then she sorta mumbled out that they should keep looking for Sango. Inu-Yasha knew that she didn't just mean Sango but he said nothing.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sango sneezed. She and Miroku had been wandering around this stupid forest for the past two hours and she was getting sick of it.
Literally.
"I think I'm catching a cold, Miroku." She sniffled.
"Don't worry, Sango! We'll get out of here soon enough!" He put his arm around her while talking softly.
She smiled and leaned against him.
They kept stumbling along roots, on the look out for a path.
"Let's go up there, Sango!" Miroku pointed at the huge muddy hill.
Sango stared at the hill with disbelief written all over her face but Miroku was already climbing. She followed quickly, not wanting to be left behind and slipped in the mud. Mud oozed between her fingers and stained her outfit but she kept right behind Miroku. Just then, she saw something that didn't quite belong out there in the forest...
"MIROKU!!!" she exclaimed, "KEEP CLIMBING!! THE PATH IS RIGHT UP ON THE TOP OF THIS HILL!!"
"Really? How do you know?"
Sango held up a small carrot, "It's from my lunch!!"
Miroku's eyes widened, "I am SO glad that you didn't finish picking them up!"
"As soon as we get to the path, we can find our way back to camp!! The others MUST be worried!"
Ah but if only they knew! Kikyo and Kouga are still lost...and I guess that Inu-Yasha and Kagome are lost too...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
