Chapter twelve- say good-bye to the albino monkey

Disclaimer: don't own inu-yasha or any characters from the anime/manga

Author's notes: you know, in a way I feel sorry for Naraku, but he brought it onto himself for being a moron and changing Inu-yasha into a kid, what a moron! ^_^

~*~

Kagura walked outside of Naraku's castle, she could sense her 'father' coming closer and she wanted to be sure she had the child, which he planned to do. She seemed to glide more then walk.

Suddenly, a large scream penetrated the silence of the castle, "I WILL TELL YOU WHEN WE GET THERE STOP ASKING ME!"

Which was then followed by, "DON'T SCREAM YOUR HURTING MY EARS!"

"I DON'T CARE JUST SHUT UP!" that was the voice of Naraku, but the other voice wasn't familiar and so Kagura walked up to meet Naraku.

The first thing she was hanyou and she immediately recognized it as Inu- yasha. ((AN: notice how the important bad guys know how he is? What's up with that?? Oh well))

She smirked, "Looks like your little plan backfired, wasn't the spell supposed to change him into an infant, not a toddler."

Naraku was not in the mood having to deal with a very annoying child all the way to his castle, "Shut up Kagura, it wasn't my fault, when I shot the arrow something went wrong, ok?"

"Yes, you never were that good at archery were you?" Kagura smirked as she saw Naraku fume from underneath his baboon pelt.

She turned her attention to the hanyou who was creeping closer and closer to him, "What are you doing?"

Inu-yasha looked up at her innocently and smiled, "my name's Inu-yasha, whose you?"

"Kagura."

"That's a perdy name, my names Inu-yasha."

"Yes I know that."

"Monkey?"

Kagura raised an eyebrow in Naraku's direction, "I think he's talking to you, monkey."
"What do you want kid?"
"Are we there yet?"
Naraku let out a scream of annoyance and would have strangled the kid if he knew he didn't need the kid in the first place, but he did, "HOW DARE YOU ASK ME SUCH A STUPID QUESTION SEE THAT CASTLE, THAT IS THE CASTLE YOU LITTLE RETARD!"

Inu-yasha's eyes got big and he started to sniffle, "Yo-you're MEAN!" Inu- yasha yelled as he kicked Naraku in the shins and ran towards the castle. Kagura watched him go with mild interest and Naraku hoped around grabbing his shin like his life depended on it.

"So, what did go wrong?"

"I'll tell you when I'm not in excruciating pain." Naraku said as he limped to the castle.

"You're just a baby, it couldn't have hurt that much could it?"

"Next time I need to pick up a child, you're going to be doing it, not me."

"Ha, yeah right."

The group had all fallen asleep except Kagome. She felt very uneasy without Inu-yasha and she also felt that Inu-yasha must be in grave danger.

"It's all my fault," she whispered to no one in particular, "it's all my fault, and now, I'll have to give up the jewel shards for him, and he'll become powerful and probably end up killing Inu-yasha either way, what to do, what to do..."

"You really should get some sleep Kagome-Sama."

Kagome jumped and looked towards the monk whom she thought to be asleep, "...how can I sleep when I know that Inu-yasha is out there probably being tortured!?"

"I doubt that he is in severe pain Kagome-Sama, for Naraku needs him healthy in order to get the jewel shards. Get some sleep, if anything I'm sure Naraku is having one hell of a time trying to keep that hanyou at rest."

Miroku closed his eyes and went to sleep, and Kagome stared at the fire that had almost died out, "have faith, Inu-yasha, I'll save you."

((AN: of courrrrrrrrrrse you will *Cough cough*))
~*~

Inu-yasha huffed in his corner, since him pretending to cry hadn't gotten him the attention he's been hoping to get. He sighed deeply, since personally, he'd rather be with Kagome-San then with monkey boy.

He hated his monkey coat. It was scary, plus, it was ugly and it smelled. A grin started to form on his face and the more his mind started to work the plan over in his head, the larger the grin got.

Kanna passed by and spotted the hanyou. She looked at him wearily then continued walking not wanting to interrupt the hanyou who had a very disturbing look on his face.

~*~

Naraku walked outside, "OK! Where the hell are you Inu-yasha!"

Snickering is heard.

Naraku walked towards the noise and examined the patch of forest in his castle grounds. No doubt the hanyou had gone in there, he thought to himself, as he walked towards it. Too bad he didn't notice the little piece of wire the hanyou had set up.

Naraku noticed when it was too late and he tripped directly into the mud, face first. More snickering that soon turned into howling.

"WHAT THE HELL?" Naraku yelled at the mud, which just made air bubbles and muffled his screams.

Inu-yasha came trotting out of the woods holding some thing in his hands, grinning his evil little grin, "HI! Monkey boy! You're monkey looks better brown, and oh I think you should have some purple right there," The little boy smiled as he smeared his hands all over Naraku's backside, making it appear purple and sticky. The little boy stood back and examined his work happily as he liked his hands clear of the black berries he'd found in the forest.

Naraku sat mortified, "What.....what did you do!!!"

"Made you're dress pwetty!" Inu-yasha smiled as he reached into his shorts pocket and pulled out a red hand, "Now, stay still if you move I can't paint you right!"

"Wha---" Naraku asked before his baboon head was red and the boy was licking his fingers clean of the huckleberries he'd found in the woods as well.

"There! All pwetty!" he smiled happily as he began to circle around Naraku who was too shocked to move, "There's something missing..."

"You...are evil! I thought I was evil, but you take the cake!"

"Cake? Where?"

"..."

"Are you tricking me again, Monkey boy, that's not very nice!" Inu-yasha growled, as he showed his claws to Naraku, then he smiled, "OH! Now I know what to do, I'm so smart! Stay here!"

Inu-yasha ran off into the woods leaving Naraku to sit in the mud in shock/awe, you decide.

*sniff* you guys are way too good to me, I have over 40 reviews! ^_^ Thank you so much I'm so glad everyone loves the mini Inu-yasha, though he's getting really evil now, haven't you noticed? He's kind of getting his personality back!

Inu- "feh, how dare you make me a child!"

Oh hush, inu-yasha, everyone thinks you cute.

Inu- "Im supposed to be feared, not cute!"

Well if it helps, Naraku is afraid of you...as a child anyway.
