Chapter 5
~Shippou~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
As I slowly drift up from the depths of sleep, I can see bright light filtering through my closed eyelids. I open my eyes slowly, but close them right back with a small yelp as a shaft of brilliant sunlight shines its merry light directly into my face. I growl my annoyance at this early morning intrusion and debate whether or not to roll over and go back to sleep or wake up and see what this new day has brought. I decide to do a little bit of both.
I slowly sit up, so as not to disturb the other sleepers around me, and look upon the scene the early morning sun reveals. Everyone is curled up into blankets, as they lay scattered across the hut's floor. The fire has burned down to leave smoldering ashes in the pit and Kaede's herbs are arranged into little neat piles for those that might need them when they wake up.
I shake my head a little to clear it and try to remember all that has happened since yesterday, but the events of the battle and afterwards still elude me. The last thing I can get my muddled mind to recall is when Kirara launched herself at the evil creature we had been battling after having hurt Sango and Miroku. I wince as I realize what must have happened when the attack failed, and the movement proves my suspicions as I feel multiple stabs of pain from the small action.
Sleep begins to look better and better as I notice all the little aches and pains that my body lets me know I have, but instead of trying to get to sleep in the patch of sunlight I am sitting in, I get up slowly and walk in the direction of the blanket Kagome's scent is coming from. Deciding comfort and sleep was better then just sleep alone, I make my way to her side and prepare to move the blanket so I can crawl in and snuggle into her loving and caring arms.
It takes my mind a sluggish moment to register what is already occupying the space between my adopted moms arms as I lift the corner of the blanket from the slumbering figure. I stare intently at the object before me to try and decipher what it could be. Not being able to see it very well in the cover of darkness under the blanket, curiosity gets the better of my sleepy senses and I gently pull the little figure out of Kagome's arms.
I take the object outside into the bright sunlight, so as to get a better look, and a small cry of glee escapes my lips as I realize what it is. The little doll is made up to look exactly like a certain annoying half- demon I have had to put up with on our trips and travels to find the jewel shards. I carefully touch the fabric of the clothes and feel the texture of the hair as I hold it before me. 'Why would someone make a doll of Inu Yasha"? I wonder to myself as I move away from the hut and into the field surrounding the village.
The red fabric feels like that same material as the coat the hanyou wears, but that is the only thing that feels the same. His silvery white hair is now one fluffy piece of cottony material and his skin feels as smooth as the silk skirt Kagome wore one time she came here. I look carefully at the face and notice the eyes, nose and mouth look as if they have been painted on instead of using the normal button and stitch method. A small smile forms on my lips as I tweak the small doggy ears that are sticking up from the top of his head. 'Oh how Inu Yasha would hate me if I actually tried to do this to him' I say to myself as the smile on my face continues to grow bigger.
As I reach the flower strewn field and watch the grass bend in waves as they dance to the rhythm of the wind. I decide to have a little fun with the little plushy before the others wake up and take it away from me. I laugh out loud as I skip to a big pile of dirt in the distance.

AN: I know, I promised a longer chapter but I just HAD to end it there. * BIG EVIL GRIN * The next chapter is going to be called 'Shippou's revenge' and I can't wait to get that one out to you.
