Haunting Me in Dreams
Chapter Ten : Emotions
By : Feng Shui Goddess
Kikyo and I began walking around her small villiage, and she insisted on pointing out everything that we saw. Along the way, I recieved some pretty angry looks from the humans in the villiage. Once and a while, I'd even see people pointing at me. I just ignored the stupid humans, because I was used to this type of reaction. When my mother and I would walk around our town, people would stare at us, wondering why a hanyou was with a human. Actually, since my town was mainly demons, they paid more attention to my mother. "That's Minoku's wench," they'd sneer, glaring at my mother. She never seemed to mind. In fact, she'd just smile, and even wave, at the angry demons. My mother just had that kind of power, to play with people's emotions. I often envied how easily she could ignore the people that didn't like her. I, on the other hand, often resorted to fighting, yelling, and growling. Being violent was just as natural for me as being kind was natural for my mother. She never seemed to be phased by anything. Kikyo tugged at my sleeve, "don't worry about all the people here. They just don't know you yet..." I nodded, not wanting Kikyo to think that I was really bothered by the stupid humans. We continued on my little tour, seemingly going nowhere, until we reached an old well. "This," Kikyo explained, pointing at it, "is the bone eaters well. When a demon is killed, we put the bones inside, and magically, they seem to disappear..." I let out a little laugh, wondering why the hell she would want to show me a barial place for demons, me being one and all. I nodded, and sarcastically said, "really? How interesting. Now I know where you'll put me when I die." Kikyo looked hurt, "that's not what I meant at all! Well, it kind of seemed like it, but I didn't mean it! Really I didn't!" I laughed, and placed my hand atop the humans head. "I'm just kidding," I said, "stupid wench, can't you even tell when I'm being sarcastic?" Kikyo shot me an angry glare, "I am NOT a stupid wench, Inu Yasha! How many times do I have to tell you?" I laughed, "well then, you cartainly act like one. What are you, then?" Kikyo thought hard, "I'm Kikyo, not some stupid wench." I laughed, having a lot of fun arguing with the girl. Kikyo smiled, "you're lauging. I'm glad." I looked surprised, and looked into her eyes. "What do you mean?" Kikyo sighed, "I mean, you haven't laughed since we've been friends."
When we finally arrived back at Kikyo's home, the smell of food was in the air. When we walked inside the door, Kohaku greeted us warmly, "welcome back! Did you have a nice walk?" I wanted to say 'no,' but my kinder side just nodded. "That's good!" Kohaku gleamed, "breakfast is ready, so why don't you two come into the kitchen?" Kikyo and I followed the bubbly housewife into the kitchen, and sat down at a table. "Welcome back, you two!" Kaede said, sounding mature for her age. Kikyo smiled, "you've been practicing your mannors, Kaede, how nice." The young girl nodded, and sat down at the table. There was a bunch of food on the table, from rice, muffins, fruit, and a bunch of other foods. Kohaku finally sat down, and said, "ikedekimasu!" We all started eating, shoving food in our mouths. "So, Inu Yasha," Kohaku said, between bites, "how long are you planning to stay with us for?" I hadn't really thought about it much since arriving, so I thought hard. "Probably just for another few days," I said, watching all the women stare up at me. "Only a few more days?" Kikyo said, sadly. I hated to see women upset, so I added, "I'll come to visit you, though." I laughed on the inside 'yeah, to steal the Shikon no Tama.' Truthfully, I had no clue on where the Shikon no Tama was in this house. I figured that it wasn't just laying around, that it was probably in a case hidden somewhere. I sighed, thinking about how hard it would be to steal the Shikon no Tama from these people. First of all, because they were all very kind, and second, they knew how to kill demons. "Inu Yasha," Kikyo started, breaking up my thoughts, "are you alright?" I nodded, "of course. Anyways, Kohaku San. Kikyo tells me that you have the Shikon no Tama..." Kohaku smiled, "yes. It was brought here from a faraway villiage to be purified." I looked confused, "why would you want to purify the Shikon no Tama?" Kohaku laughed, "so that way demon's won't be so attracted to it." I understood, and hoped that it hadn't been purified yet.
Later that day, my mind was really set on retrieving the Shikon no Tama. I could only achieve my goal if I posessed stronger powers. I sighed, figuring that what I wanted was near impossible.I secretly searched the house for the jewel while Kohaku, Kikyo and Kaede went to the market. I opened up all the drawers I could find, and looked under everything in the whole house. No matter where I looked, I just couldin't find it, which pissed me off. 'Where in the seven hells did they hide it?!' I asked myself. 'Wait!' I thought, 'maybe Kikyo has it with her! The wench!' Now that I thought about it, the fact that Kikyo had the jewel would make sence. 'She's supposed to be protecting it,' I thought, 'and in order to do that, you'd suspect that she keep it with her at all times.' I mentally slapped myself, wondering why I hadn't thought of that before. Like she was just going to leave the Shikon no Tama laying around her room somewhere. And that's when it came to me... Her room! Although I didn't know what room belonged to Kikyo, I quickly spotted (actually, smelled) it. I walked inside and looked all around. Clothes were laying all over the floor, and her covers on her bed were hanging all over the place. Her room looked horrible compaired to the rest of her home, and how neat it was. Suddenly, I saw something glimmering in the pocket of a pair of her pants. I stuck my hand in the pocket, and felt something smoothe and round. I pulled the object out of the pocket to reveal the Shikon no Tama. 'I found it...' I thought to myself. 'I finally have it... the ultimate power! It was so smiple!' Suddenly, I heard someone quickly approaching the room I was in. I quickly shoved the jewel in my pocket. Kikyo appeared in the doorway, looking at me with an angry glare. "What are you doing in here, Inu Yasha?" I didn't know what to do or say, and I just stood there with different emotions swelling up inside me.
(A.N) Cliffhanger! ::laughs:: I am really sorry, it's just that I don't know how I want this scene to end. If you have any suggestions, please post them with your review. I'll be posting another chapter either tonight or tomorrow morning, so don't worry! Thank you for giving your time to read this story, and please review!
