You know what? I'm on the sixth chapter and I've only just now figured out the ending. How's that for planning ahead?

Chapter 6: The True Story



Kagome walked down the dirt road surrounded by trees. She watched the fall leaves drop off of their trees and float to the ground. 'So peaceful, so perfect.' She thought smiling. The villagers were preparing for the harvest festival, raking crops of their bounty, getting into ol' time tradition and before harvest stories and suspitions. Village children and Shippou played among the leaves scattering them all over the village and getting bugs and dry pieces of leaves stuck in their hair and making the elders groan.

Their was a light breeze in the air, meaning she had to shift to her fall clothes. It was her favorite season of the year.

Then she heard the rustle and crunching of dry leaves and Inu Yasha jumped out of the branches above her. She jumped in shock then said, "Inu Yasha? Oh, don't scare me like that, I thought you were a-"

He handed her a large, red, heart-shaped leaf. She held it and twirled the stem in her fingers. 'Wow! I wonder where he found a leaf this size!' she thought. She smiled at him and said, "Thank you!"

He made his serious puppy dog face, "Are you staying here for the harvest thing?"

Who could say "no" to a face like that? "If you want me to." She said. He looked down and nodded. There wasn't much movement after that like he didn't really no what to do next. They hadn't really had any intimate moments since Naraku's second death. She decided to help him. She walked over and put her arms around him. It was just the push he needed. He put his arms around her and buried his face in her hair to take in her sweet scent. They held each other with a slight rocking motion until the moment was broken by the sound of laughter.

They both looked up and saw Honey about fifty feet away. They went over toward her. She crossed her arms and looked off to the right with an expression that read, "My goodness gracious of the ignorance!" written on it.

"What is it, Honey?" Kagome asked.

"Just look at those two!" she said in an annoyed tone. They looked over to see Musuko and Inu Otoko rapping together. "-And it seems that everybody wants to dis-cuss me! So this must mean I'm dis-gus-ting! But it's not me, I'm just ob-sean!"

"Leave them alone for five minutes and they become best buds!" Honey sighed with a sweatdrop. "It would all be terribly cute if it weren't already incredibly annoying!"

"Inu Otoko?" Kagome asked coming over.

He stopped rapping and immediately turned to her, "Yes, Mother?"

She blushed when he called her that. She sat across from him. She offered her hand and said, "You seem like a good boy, why did you attack those villages?"

Then his expression changed like he had just seen Kagome turn into a tap dancing chicken. "ME?!-Attack THEM?!" he stood up and laughed in hysterical anger. His fangs unsheathed then slid back in again. He smiled at Inu Yasha and Kagome and said, "Do you REALLY want to know what happened?!"



Village #1

Inu Otoko is walking through his first town since he appeared into Sengoku Jidi. A priest was praying by the grave marker. Inu Otoko walks past him and the priest shivered. He stood up and stared horrified at Inu Otoko. He points and shouts, "DEMON!"

"Huh?" Inu Otoko's eyes widen and a bunch of priests jump out of no where with exorcism scrolls.



Village #2

Inu Otoko leans against the side of someone's hut. 'Well that was stupid,' he thought. 'I guess if I want to live anywhere, I can't show my demon side, no matter what.' He falls asleep against while he's standing. (An: I do that all the time!)

A large lady comes walking by. She steps on his foot and practically crushes it. "OW!!!" Inu Otoko shrieked and immeadiatly woke up. He glared at the overweight womon with red eyes. "GEEZE, LADY! I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN TRAMPLED BY A TROJAN HORSE!"

She blinked at him then screamed, "Ai! It's a demon!"

A bunch of exterminators and exorcists jump out of nowhere.



Village #3

Inu Otoko's walking and eating instant ramen when a guy he passes turns and points, "It's the demon from the other two villages!"

"Oh, come on!" Inu Otoko shouted at him with a noodle hanging out of the corner of his mouth. Then a bunch of exterminators sack him, making him drop his ramen.



Village #4

Inu Otoko peeked around the corner of the building. He looked to his left, then to his right, then let out a deep sigh and took a step into the street.

"DEMON!" Someone shouted.

"God dammit!" Inu Otoko groweled and the exterminators jumped him.



Village #5

Inu Otoko decided he had to disguise himself, so before he entered the next village, he covered himself in a thick coat of mud. He started to walk down the street, feeling good, feeling fine, a little unclean though.....

Then a person on a horse galloped through a puddle of water and splashed him, completely washing off his disguise.

"The demon from the other five villages!"

"Ah, CRAP!"



"Other villages were pretty much routine after that. They all started it, I was just defending myself" Inu Otoko said.

Kagome gave him a sympathetic look, "Then you weren't welcomed anywhere? That's so sad!" she noticed his expression, it was a smile with a mixture of frustration, anger, and-lonliness.

Then he smirked and said, "I had em' all after me! The holiest exorcists, the most hardcore exterminators, but they were nothing to me, I squashed them all like bugs." Then amusement and disbelief entered his expression. "Then one day, a weak, future human girl shows up and subdues me with a whistle!" Then all of the bad things disappeared from his expression and he made a version of one of Inu Yasha's more rare and comfortable smiles.





"KAGOME!" Sango shouted.

"Huh?" Kagome woke up spacing out and looked at her pot of ramen that was bubbling over. "EEK!" she pulled it out of the heat and let it cool a little.

"You're really out of it." Sango said. "A yen for your thoughts?"

Sango sat across from her with Inu Onna and Inu Yasha sat three braches up in a tree.

"When Inu Otoko was talking about the villages, he had this sad look on his face, and it's been on my mind ever since." She said sadly.

"He can really dish out the puppydog eyes, ne?" Sango said handing her the bowels.

"I think we should help him-somehow." Kagome said. Inju Yasha jumped down and the four of them sat eating ramen.

"Hey! I think I have an idea!" Inu Onna suddenly said. "Remember when Myoga said that me and Dad have the wild blood too, only we have the swords to control it? Why can't we do the same for him?"

"Yeah! Good idea, Inu Onna!" Kagome said.

"If we can find Toutosei." Inu Yasha said.
