Chapter 3: Kitsune, Chipmunks and Those Little High-pitched Voices
Inu-Yasha sat Indian style within his warm den, he had ripped the knife from his gut out and had thrown it across the wall. He held his ears once again, the straps on his face had now faded away as he returned to normal. "T-that girl-w-what the fuck just happened to m-me?" He asked himself out loud as he took deep breaths to calm his nervous, his k-9 like ears twitched in every direction. "She couldn't have been n-no." He said to himself once again out loud. "She wasn't Kikyo! That norou priestess is dead, I killed her!-But she looks so much like the damn miko." He started with a yell and his sentence finished in a whisper.
He could still smell the blood of the human girl in the air and he leaned against the wall and looked at his bloody hands in distaste. Then he raised an eyebrow. "Did I.?" he started, as he looked at his hand once more. "No.I couldn't of.I did.I turned full youkai.but.how?" He said out loud in confusion as he stood up and walked outside to the small spring beside his den, he untied his kimono and tossed it down, followed by his red baggy pants and under kimono and went into the water to wash the blood off his body, then he would ponder some more over the fact he went full.
A bit later he was ringing out his fire-rat kimono, his only attire that he wore was a loincloth. He sighed when he heard a high-pitched voice and an annoying poke in the leg. He looked down and rolled his eyes as he went back to ringing out the last part of his clothes. "What is it squirt?"
"Don't call me that!" cried out the high-pitched voice that belonged to a little kitsune youkai, which hung around him always, like a pesky little brother that he never had, nor ever wanted. The kitsune jumped upon a rock that was next to the hanyou. "Oi, Inu did you know there's youkai hunters in your mori? Am scared what if they come after me?" he whined as Inu-Yasha leaned down and he put a claw to the kitsune's nose. "Hai! Then let them come for you! I would have peace then!" He braked as parked his butt on a rock besides his drying kimono. "Your so mean to me!" The little brown haired kitsune said as he crossed his arms and his fluffy tail swayed side to side. His large blue eyes threaten to spill over with tears.
"Don't you even think of CRYING! I got things to think about and I don't need you wailing in my ears!" The hanyou braked even louder at the kitsune, who sniffled and rubbed his eyes with his small fist. The kitsune titled his head and looked at the fire-rat kimono. "Oi, were did you get that hole in your kimono?" He asked innocently. Yasha blinked. "None of your business." He said normally and the kitsune hoped onto his shoulder. "You saw the hunters! You fought them didn't you? Well." The kitsune asked happily wanting to know more. "Hai, pest, I saw them, two girls and a fire- cat."
"Where they pretty?"
"NANI!?!"
"Where they pretty?"
"What you didn't see them?"
"I smelt them! I didn't see them." The kitsune replied as Inu-Yasha grabbed him by the tail. "Will then, you go see for yourself, kodomo." He said as he tossed the kitsune to the ground. The kitsune being used to this landed on all four. "Don't do that!"
"Shippo."
"What?"
"Go and see what they are doing before I decide to hang you by your damn tail!" Inu-Yasha said standing up and reaching for Shippos tail to get his point across. Although Shippo took of before he could gab him. "Now then, back to my train of thought." He mumbled as he sat once again in Indian style with his chin resting in the palm of his hand, as his elbow balanced on his leg. Though sadly the sound of giggles and the sudden movement of his clothes once again interrupted his thought. Inu-Yasha blinked. "Oi! Come back here! Argh, I hate youkai chipmunks!!" He then sprang after his clothing.

Sango watched over imoto as she slept by the small fire, that Sango had built to keep them warm. It was growing dark now and they where to far away village to receive help and she did not want to chance reopening Kagomes wounds. She pushed a lock of black hair behind her sister's ear.
She had found her sister unconscious in an open area by a stream, Kagome had received many wounds, but the many that worried Sango the most was the injured shoulder. It was stabbed clean through right under the collarbone, only inches away from the joint that held to arm to her shoulder. She he had mended it as best as she could but she could not tell if the tendon's had suffered damage. She could hope they did not, she sighed as Kirara lay down by Kagome meowing sadly. She suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder and she looked up to find man dressed as a monk, his short black hair tied off in a small ponytail at the nap of his neck, his eyes full of sorrow, she smiled a little. "Miroku." She said his name softly and he took a seat neck to her and laid his staff over one shoulder as he usually did when sitting.
Sango had come across Miroku on her way down the deeper into the forest when she had ran into Miroku. She knew him well as he knew her. Though she had strong feelings for him she would never admit it. "How is she?" The bokushi asked as he looked at the raven-haired girl. "I don't know." Sango replied her voice trembled, sure Kagome and herself have received many injuries before, but whenever her imoto had gotten hurt she would always worry. Kagome was the only family she had left not including Kirara. If she lost her only leaving relative she didn't know what she would do. But the half-breed demon would pay dearly for hurting her little sister.
Miroku reached over and put an arm around Sango pulling her close to give her comfort, she looked at the hand as if it was a snake about to bite her, but when she noticed the hand made no attempt to go south she leaned against the monk.

Shippo peered over a bush to watch the humans, he looked at studied each of them, but made sure he hid in the opposite direction in which the wind was blowing so his scent would not travel toward them or to the giant fire-cat that would surely eat him for dinner. He gulped at the thought of being trapped within its jaws and being swallowed whole. But he shook the thought out of his mined by shaking his head, he looked over to the girl lying by the fire, she had bandages on her and smelt of old blood.
Inu-Yasha must have attacked her he guessed and he snorted, he didn't like it when people got hurt. But they did enter the forest that was watched by the hanyou. He sighed and then blinked, the girl was pretty and he smiled and wondered if his hanyou friend thought she was too. He giggled at the thought, the large cat looked at his direction and with an silent "Eep" he hid in the bushes.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Sango looked at Kirara then towards the bushes and raised an eyebrow and stood up as Kirara growled, Sango looked over at Miroku then back to the bushes, she then silently took Miroku's staff with his silent permission. Then casually and carefully walked towards the bush, she slowly raised the staff over the bush and a sudden sound of wood and mental banging onto a small skull echoed through the air.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
The next morning Sango rode on Kirara's back with Kagome riding in front of her, she still was not conscious. So Kagome had to lean against his elder sister for support, they rode slowly with the monk walking beside the too. A sudden cry broke the silence. "LET-ME-OUT!" cried a voice from inside of a leather bag that Miroku was carrying. "So what are we going to do with the kitsune?' Miroku asked in his composed voice, The huntress shrugged "We can throw him over in a river."
"NANI!?" The voice cried out
"That is if a certain kitsune tells us why he was spying." She added in a sarcastic tone, "But I cant, I already told I can't! Come on!" whined the little voice. Miroku could only smile as Sango smirked, she really wouldn't throw him over into a river, the youkai cause no harm to them, but then again it was to small to and only a small child. But suddenly their smiles turned into wide-eyed stares as Kagome's hand twitched and then she moaned. "Sango?" she asked weakly for conformation it was her sister. "Hai." She said softly happy to finally see her sister awake, well half way awake. "Where.are.we?" she asked as her eyes slowly opened and she then shuts them once again as the light flooded into her eyes. "Heading towards the village. You where injured in your fight, you have been out of it a whole day." Kagome opened her eyes once more as her eyes adjusted to the light.
"Kagome-sama, I am happy to see you have awaken from your state of unconsciousness, you had us worried for a long time and may I added that it is an honor to see you once more." Miroku said happily with a smile on his face. "M-Miroku?" She asked as she looked over at him and he nodded with a smile and was about to say something until he was rudely interrupted when he felt a punch to his head by a fluffy light brown squirrel like-tail that was now sticking out of the bag. "Can't you hold still?" said the monk with a twitch of his eyebrow in announce. "I-WANT-OUT! O-U-T.please.I'll talk now." Said the little high-pitched voice and Kagome blinked and was about to ask what that was or who it was. But her sister just shook her head.
