Ya know what? Naraku is sort of like Osama Bin Laden, ya know? I mean
everyone hates him, and everyone's looking for him, but they can't find
him!! And he's always creating disasters and sending out images of himself
to bother the cast! What do you think? Review if you feel me on the
subject...
Chapter 9: Damn Cold Night
Well you should have been there that morning. OH! It was amazing! Inu Yasha was really getting back into that father thing. He was sitting there talking with Miroku and Shio, while he watched Inu Otoko when it happened.
"I'm telling you guys, it was classic! Three village women, all of them were wanting this bottle of sake, and they got into this really outrageous catfight.." Shio said. He had the image of screaming and clawing girls in violent battle lodged in his skull.
"Shio, don't you ever talk about anything else besides hot women?" Miroku asked. Then he looked surprised at himself and asked out loud, "Did I just say that?!"
"Yeah, we're getting tired of hearing about your escapades in sex." Inu Yasha asked. Then he looked at Inu Otoko who was now able to sit up on his own. "Right, Inu Otoko?" he asked the baby.
Inu Otoko folded his arms and did a baby-like expression that looked like across between poppy's fat faced features, and an old fashion Inu Yasha smile. Then he said in cute little baby voice, "Feh!"
Wow! You would have thought that they had just heard that Naraku died twice and world hunger had been ended with an endless supply of ramen, I mean, WOW!! "KAGOME!!!!!"
After a few seconds, she came running in to see what havoc had rout. "What?! What's the problem?!"
Inu Yasha was wiggn'! "HE SAID HIS FIRST WORD!! HE SAID "FEH!""
Kagome sweatdropped so close to a facefault, (AN: I'm getting to into this Anime language. ;;;)
She smiled nervously at him, "Inu Yasha, I don't think "Feh" is actually a word." ;;;;
Inu Onna didn't like what was happening at all. In all of her years of existence, all seven years and nine months, she had never known her father to be so happy and well, "fatherly" which describes it best. You could tell that he loved children. It was SO embarrassing.
Then Inu Yasha and his buddies walked off, leaving Kagome, who was sitting in the next room with her lab top by the door, Inu Otoko, and Inu Onna. She came over and sat across from him.
He laughed when he saw her and waved his arms. She just glared at him, "Yeah I know what you're thinking, 'Wait till she gets close enough, then try to yank her hair right out of her freakn' scalp!'"
Inu Otoko laughed and started making spit bubbles on the pucker of his human lips.
"Look at you, without a care in the world!" Inu Onna said. "Well some of us actually know that there is always a demon or a new fear lurking in the darkness."
Inu Otoko just looked up at her, making the little baby motorboat sound as numerous infinitesimal spit bubbles dripped down his chin.
Her father said she was beautiful, days had passed, snubs went on, she didn't feel beautiful in any way.
Her mother came in and wiped Inu Otoko's mouth with a spit rag. "Inu Onna, you could have gotten that!"
Then she walked off with the baby, to give it more attention no doubt.
It was late at night. Ao Cho was making her rounds, reading peoples' dreams. Apparently, her father was dreaming about a fish sandwich, her mother was dreaming about herself being one of the main characters of E.R., Inu Yasha was dreaming about world hunger being ended by Ramen (AN: Yes, Ramen IS the answer to all problems!), and Kagome was having a dream about all of the characters of this story in Moulin Rouge.
She also read Inu Onna's mind which was, again, about chasing butterflies, dancing with bunnies, whispering to flowers, and running with kittens.
Then she saw Inu Otoko, who was fast asleep at his mother's side. She became very interested, for she had never seen a baby's dreams before. She sat behind the child and put her hands over his ears. After a second she jolted like she had just gotten shocked by an outlet plug. She jumped back holding the spot where her heart was, trying breath correctly. She looked down at the baby stunned and wide awake. It was a good thing she let go when she did, or she might have been purified!
What Inu Otoko dreamed about wasn't really like everyone else's dreams. Older people dream in movie form or side show style. Some people dream in color, others in black and white. Babies like Inu Otoko, have dreams filled with pure love and emotions, and soft shapes floating in a comforting void of contentment. For a demon to just come along and try to understand and see it, would cause them pain like no other. That is how magic a babies dream is.
Inu Onna sat up in bed. It was late at night, but for some reason, she just felt like waking up. She didn't have to go to the bathroom, and she didn't have a nightmare. It was just one of those nights. She got up and decided to go get a drink of water.
She walked out to the lake and cupped the moon lit water in her hands. As she slurped the wind howled in the trees. The cause of the strange voice was near. Like before, she wasn't afraid. Only the weak and cowardly hid in the shadows. She calmly took another slurp then asked, "What do you want, basterd?"
There was a pause of silence then she heard the voice, "How Nasty!"
Inu Onna put her hands in the water and frowned, "What? The fact that I called you a basterd, or the fact that you stalk small children?"
The wind howled through the trees roughly. "For a young girl with such exclusive upbringing, you have quite the colorful vocabulary!" he said in an amused tone.
Inu Onna smirked then said, "Basterd! Bitch! Hell! Damn!"
She waited and when no answer came she spoke out, "So what do you want?"
"Want?"
"If you're gonna stalk me, you're gonna need a reason." She said taking another slurp. She was going to have to go to the bathroom before she went to sleep.
The wind blew ominously.
"How are things at home?"
"Well you seem to know enough about me already, why don't YOU tell ME!?" she asked raising her voice.
"No need to get hostile." The voice said defensively, like it had done nothing wrong.
"Is there?" she asked. Her next slurp made her a little bit calmer.
She took one last slurp then stood up and looked around. "Hello?"
No answer came. She must've offended him.
Good.
She took six steps then she heard the voice say, "Musuko's in trouble."
Kagome sat up, which triggered some kind of reaction, making Inu Yasha wake up. He rolled over in bed and growled, "It's late!"
She just looked around and said, "Something doesn't feel right."
Inu Yasha sat up and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. Goodbye sleep. "What doesn't feel right?"
After a few seconds, she got up and put her slippers on. "I'm going to go check on Inu Onna."
Inu Onna looked around, the wind made her feel cold now. "What??"
No answer came.
"What are you talking about?!" she asked.
No answer came again.
"DAMN IT! This is getting really old, really fast!! Tell me what you mean?!" she shouted.
The wind howled and she suddenly caught the smell on blood in it. She had no more time for that creep, she had to go find Musuko.
The scent wasn't far, she smell two bloods. She couldn't tell whose they were, she had never really smelled Musuko's blood. Hopefully that second blood was the killer's. Otherwise, she couldn't smell anyone else.
"Inu Yasha!" Miroku, Sango, and Shippou called. Inu Yasha and Kagome ran over to them.
"We can't find Musuko or the twins either!" Sango said.
"Inu Onna's missing also!" Kagome said.
They heard barking dogs in the distance and the village was stirring. A man with a pitchfork came running by and Miroku called him over. "What's going on?"
The man said. "The village preists have sensed a demon hunting humans. We're getting an angry mob together to capture it and burn it." He ran off with his pitchforks and they heard him shout. "I'm coming! I'm here!"
Then another man's voice said, "Grab your torch and pitchforks!"
Inu Onna's heart pounded as she got closer. The scent of blood was increasing! -Three people, four people, five people! Three humans and two demons, she couldn't tell who they were though.
She then when she was right on top of the scent, a cloud blocked the moon. It was pitch black, and dead quiet. Her head spun with the strong smell of blood, it was like a massacre, a homicide! Then she stumbled on something soft and wet. The smell of blood was stronger then ever and she thought that she was going to faint.
Then the moonlight broke in and she saw herself face to face with a corpse. Not just any corpse, but Musuko's! She screamed and jumped to her feet. All around her where corpses of people she knew! Musuko, Hachimitsu, the twins Kaede and Kirara, and even Ao Cho. Most of them had there eyes open, they gaped in blank and glassy stares.
Her mind raced with disbelief and fear. She had seen corpses before but this was way different. She fell to her knees next to Musuko and cried. She hugged him and didn't even realize she put her face in his blood. She sat up and tried to wipe her eyes, getting it on her hands. She looked at her red hands. It almost looked like she had finger paint on them.
Then she was filled with thoughts that no seven year old alive should ever be subjected to: Vengence, Anger like no other she had ever felt. She sniffed the blood on her hands and Musuko's corpse, looking for the scent of the killer. She sat up leaning on her hands over him. No scent! Nothing! There was nothing but the scent of blood, no smell of blade or claws, the killer left no scent!
Suddenly, the group of villagers came out of the woods and looked directly at her. She looked up at them and they wrenched in disgust. Then her parents and some of there friends came in.
Her heart sunk. She could have just imagined what they saw. She was sitting around the dead bodies of children, just like at her last village. Face, claws, and the front of her kimono were covered in blood. It even clung to her hair. The next thing she knew, the villagers where grabbing her and priests where tying her up completely except for her feet.
Her mind whirled with the screams of angry villagers echoing in her dog ears. "You sick little hanyo!" "Unholy beast!" "She's a cannibal, that's what she is! Eating humans and demons like she was at an all you can eat buffet!" "Those poor children, they were doomed the minute she pranced into the village!"
Inu Onna tried to force back tears as she shouted, "I didn't! It wasn't me! I didn't do it! I swear!"
But her defense was drowned out by the rants of the villagers. Then she looked up to see that her father and mother were standing in front of her. "I didn't!" she shouted. "It wasn't me!"
Kagome was crying and hugging Inu Yasha. She glanced at Inu Onna red faced then buried her face in the left side of Inu Yasha's chest. Inu Yasha looked at her with a stern, disappointed expression.
Inu Onna's face drained of colors and her jaw dropped in disbelief. Two fresh trails of tears ran down her cheeks as the mob of people pushed her back to the village. They lost faith in her. They didn't believe her. The look on her father's face stayed in her mind and she thought, 'If they don't believe in me, or try to defend me, or trust me, then maybe......
They don't love me.'

Wow. I'm starting to get depressed. Well, tell me what ya thunk, cause I'd like to know.
