Chapter 16: Oh the Ironity!



*There are 2 ironic things in this chapter-see if you can catch them!* *I KNOW "ironity isn't a word! _*





"I sense a shikon shard!" Kagome said. Everyone stopped walking to look at her.

"Where is it?!" Inu Yasha asked.

She pointed ahead of her, "That way! And it's not too far!"

They started running that way. Inu Yasha lifted Kagome onto his back and started to fly. Sango jumped on Kirara with Miroku and Shippou. Shio jumped from tree branch to tree branch. Then they saw the demon. Actually, it was an Ent! (An: Have you ever read The Two Towers? It kind of looks like a giant tree person! And they're like really dangerous!)

Inu Yasha sat Kagome out of harms way and said, "I'll be right back!" He unsheathed tetsusaiga and lunged at the Ent. The Ent caught the sword blade between his "hands" and tossed the dog demon like a stick. But you know Inu Yasha, quick to recover. He jumped back up with his sword. "That didn't even hurt!" he shouted.

The Ent ripped a boulder out of the ground and smack him with it. Inu Yasha flew into the side of a cliff. And sunk to the ground with the wind knocked out of him. "Okay, that kind of hurt."

Shio picked up a forked twig and tied a blade of grass around it. The Ent picked up the boulder again and swung it at Inu Yasha.

SHING!

Shio stood in front of Inu Yasha blocking and holding the rock back with a double-bladed sword.

(Sara: gasp!)

"Wow! He's strong!" Shippou said.

The Ent pulled it back then swung at Kagome. Inu Yasha ran to block that but the Ent was planning on this, so when he went to block the rock, the Ent swung one of its vines and smacked him across the face with it. Shio took that opportunity to get behind the Ent and slice him in half.

Kagome crawled toward the aurora of the shikon shard and pulled it out. Shio dropped the double bladed sword and in a puff of blue light and smoke, it turned back into a forked branch and grass blade. "That was so cool!" Shippou said. "That's a move my dad uses!"

"How did you do that if you're a dog demon?" Sango asked.

Shio held up a finger. "Not a FULL dogdemon!" he smiled, "What do you get when you mate a male warrior dog demon, with a female healer kitsune?" he pointed two thumbs at himself proudly. "A kickass dogdemon with the hot body and face of a kitsune!" Then he realized Inu Yasha was still lying on the ground. "Hey, Buddy! You okay??"

Shio lead Kagome over to Inu Yasha and everyone followed. Inu Yasha sat up looking away with a hand over his face.

"That ent hit your face pretty hard, they're like whips." Miroku said.

Kagome held his hand, "Inu Yasha? Are you okay?"

He pulled his hand from his face. The area around his eyes was red, kind of like when the guys get slapped and there's a red hand print. He looked around like he was trying to see something.

"What's wrong, Man?" Shio asked.

Inu Yasha looked down with a slightly worried look on his face. "I-I can't see!"

(Sara: gasp!)

"What?!" Kagome said.

Everyone stared at him in disbelief. He looked at the direction of her voice. "Don't worry, I'm a half demon, it'll heal!"

"But your blind!" she said.

"I know!" he said angrily. He tilted his head forward, "I can't be your seeing eye dog anymore."

Kagome sighed and pulled off her blindfold. "Then I guess that makes me, your seeing eye human."

(Sara: gasp!)

(Scorpiogal: Shut up, Sara! They're supposed to figure it out for themselves!)





Inu Yasha's eyes widened and he looked toward the source of Kagome's voice. "What??"

She hugged him. "I'm really sorry, Inu Yasha! I was blind, but Shio healed me!"

Inu Yasha frowned and looked off to the opposite direction that Shio was in. "Shiiiiooooo."

"WHAT?!" Shio said innocently.

"Please forgive me!" Kagome said.

"Why did you pretend?!" Inu Yasha asked.

"Because you were only nice to me when I was blind." She let go of him and backed off. "I was afraid that when I went back to normal eye sight, you wouldn't like me anymore."

Miroku and Sango and Shippou went back to camp to leave them alone. Shio just stood off to the side.

Inu Yasha was starting to understand. He reluctantly followed her scent and hugged her. She lightly put her arms around him and he said, "I'm sorry if I made you feel that way." All of a sudden he felt her being pulled out of his arms. Shio lifted Kagome off the ground and stood her on the ground.

"Um, Kagome?" he said scratching his head. "I'm sorry to yank you out of your moment, but I had to tell you. I could have just healed Inu Yasha and you could've kept you secret! Why did you tell him!?"

"It wouldn't have been right, I should of told him the truth from the beginning. I don't want you to heal him. I want to take care of him now to make up for it." She said. Shio smiled at her then nodded. "Alright then! I'll see you later at camp." And he leapt off. Kagome sat next to Inu Yasha and watched Shio leave. Then she turned to Inu Yasha and said, "Inu Yasha? How are you feeling?"

He looked up at her as if he could see her. He raised a hand and held her smooth cheek. She touched the hand on her face and he said, "When I can't see, your scent is stronger then ever." Then he leaned forward and kissed her. No tricks, no schemes, just true love. She loved him to and knew that it was right, so she responded to the kiss and hugged him tighter.

He stroked her back and petted her hair and made sure they were both in a comfortable position, because he was planning on staying there for a while. ;-)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

How was that? A little different from your regular kiss description. Sorry it was so short, but I'm not used to writing them.
