~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~
Shippou was trying to hold back a laugh from what they were doing. Getting the others together was so much fun. He and Kylinah were standing on a tree limb so that Kagome couldn't see them. This would be very hard, Kylinah had to get Kagome's scent on her so that Inuyasha would believe that Kagome was really there. They sat behind the tree in the shadows, since it was night it wasn't that hard but the moon was bright that night. Shippou started to talk in Inuyasha's voice, Kylinah again whispering in the little kitsune's ear so he'd know what to say.
"You found Kylinah yet?"
Kagome looked around startled by what she thought to be Inuyasha's voice. "No I haven't you seen Shippou? I thought I heard Kylinah over here though."
"Yea, me too, I smell her around here somewhere, where could that stupid little runt be?"
"Inuyasha, she could be in real trouble"
"I'm not worried, she can take care of herself, I'm trying to find her for waking me up"
Kagome smiled slightly, thinking that she heard the worry in his voice, "Yea, if you say so Inuyasha, where are you anyway, I can't see you in the dark."
"I'm in the tree, it's easier to catch their scents up here."
"You really love your sister don't you?"
"Feh! Don't be stupid, she's just a little runt, I don't care for her as much as I care for."
"Who Inuyasha? Who do you care for more than her?"
"Um..nobody Kagome..nobody."
"But you just said." she sighed softly.
"You! Ok?!? Happy now? I said it!"
Kagome grinned, "Yea, I'm happy, but what about Kikyo?"
"What about her..she's dead.th..there's nothing I can do about it after I get revenge on Naraku for our betrayal."
"But.I'm not just a replacement for her am I?"
"Of course not, you're different than her, you're not Kikyo, you're Kagome."
Kagome blushed and started to look up in the trees for him, she wanted to see his face but before she had the chance to reply Shippou said something else in Inuyasha' voice, "I think I hear Shippou, I better go, see you back at the camp Kagome." Shippou then ran away and Kylinah jumped down from the tree and ran over to Kagome.
"Kagome! Thank the gods I found you, where is everybody else? I can't find Shippou or Kirara!" She jumped up into Kagome's arms buried her face into Kagome's neck as if she were crying.
"We're looking for them, what happened?"
"We were playing by the river and.and we got separated and got lost in the forest!" she lifted up her head and sniffed slightly, "I smell him! I have to go get Shippou!" Kagome tried to hold onto the squirming little demon.
"No Kylinah, come back with me to the camp, Inuyasha is going after Shippou."
"No! you have to go back, maybe they found him and are waiting, I can smell my way back, you go back and wait please, I have to find Shippou!"
Kagome smiled, "Alright, I'll go back, you just be careful, find Inuyasha, he's worried about you." She set Kylinah down and turned to go back to the camp, "you never said anything about finding Kirara."
"I..um.just go!" she huffed, blushing deeply before turning to run after Shippou and find the real Inuyasha. Kagome laughed softly and walked back towards the camp.
Kylinah jumped around from tree to tree in a circle around her older brother. She confused his sense of smell, he could smell Kagome all around and Kylinah as well, he could even smell Shippou but he couldn't figure out which way to go. He got frustrated and sat down in the center of the circle, and waited. Kylinah had coached Shippou on what to say before this. She had to keep moving around the circle so Inuyasha couldn't pick up on the direction from where the strongest scent was.
Shippou smiled and started to talk in Kagome's voice, "Hey Inuyasha, you found them yet?"
"Of course not! Don't you think I would've found you by now if I did!" he sniffed the air slightly and still couldn't find the direction so he stayed still.
"What are you doing just sitting there then!"
"Stupid girl! You're messing up the scent! Stop moving, don't think I can't hear you."
Kylinah stopped and thought for a minute, 'wait, if he can hear me, then he's knows I'm in the trees.wait, he's bluffing! He can't hear me, if he could then he'd know the direction!' she quickly started to move again. 'Damn him, he's smarter then I thought.' she kept on moving quickly.
Shippou just sighed softly, Kylinah had been right, he was way harder to trick then the others. He just kept on with the original plan and kept talking in Kagome's voice, "I'm not stopping! If I do then I won't find Shippou or Kylinah, Sango's back at camp with Kirara, she's staying there just in case anybody comes back."
"Oh well, that's nice, she's the one that can sense demons not you and Miroku and she isn't looking!"
"What you think I can't find them?! You forget, Kylinah has Shikon shards in her wrist, I can sense those!"
"Feh!" he finally stopped arguing and just sat there, still waiting.
"I wanted to find you anyway, I wanted to see if you were ok.."
"Why wouldn't I be?" Inuyasha growled softly.
"You seem really worried about Kylinah."
"No, she's just a runt, I'm not worried about her, plus she can take care of herself."
"Then why are you out here and not back at the camp?"
"I um.just helping you and the others out."
"Helping me?"
"No! I mean yes..I mean.." Inuyasha blushed, "I don't know what I mean.."
"Obviously" Shippou giggled in Kagome's voice, "Inuyasha, I.wanted to tell you something..I mean.."
"There you go with the I means, why don't you come out here in the moon light so I can see you?"
"Um, no I..it's easier this way..I just wanted to you to know that..I..really care about you is all..and I.umm.yea.." Kylinah smiled, Shippou was doing great.
Inuyasha blushed and stood up, "Yea um..me too.."
"I think I hear Shippou, I'll meet you back at the camp ok?" Shippou ran off towards where they had left Miroku and Kylinah ran off then ran back to Inuyasha. Kagome's scent had all but worn off.
"Inuyasha!"
"Where have you been?!? Did you see Kagome?"
"Um yea, she said she was going to find Shippou, she heard him back towards the camp."
Inuyasha swooped down and picked up the little demon and held her up in front of his own face so that they were eyes level, "stupid runt, don't you ever do that again!"
Kylinah wanted to laugh but she made tears come to her eyes instead, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get lost I've been trying to find Shippou but everybody else's scents were messing me up!"
Inuyasha shook his head and smiled softly he re-situated Kylinah so that she was on his back, "Come on lil'sis we gotta go back to the camp, see if anybody else has been found."
Kylinah smiled, this was great, it had worked so far, and the plan was going great. When they got back to the camp Kagome was fussing at Shippou for being lost, "I know Kylinah and Kirara could find their way back, I wasn't worried about them but you had me so worried, don't you ever do that again!"
Miroku put his hand on her shoulder, "Calm down Lady Kagome, I think he's had enough punishment from scared and alone at night in the forest." Sango watched him closely, his hand didn't go anywhere else but her shoulder then he stepped away, far away, from her.
Kagome sighed, "You're right Miroku" she bent down and hugged the little kitsune tightly, "I'm so glad you're safe Shippou, just don't ever scare me like that again please."
"I won't! I promise!" Shippou smiled then yawned.
Kylinah jumped down from Inuyasha's back and watched as Inuyasha and Kagome wouldn't make eye contact, Sango was watching Miroku as if she were a cat ready to pounce, and he just watched his feet.
Shippou smiled, "can we go to bed now, I'm sleepy."
Kylinah nodded in agreement and jumped into a tree and Shippou crawled into Kagome's sleeping bag. Everyone else went to their separate sleeping places and fell asleep.
