Interview with Inuyasha!

Kinie: Hello, and welcome to a third installment of 'Interview of Anime Characters!' This time around, we've traveled all the way back to feudal Japan, to interview everyone's favorite half-demon. Let's here it up for Inuyasha!

Inuyasha: **Walks in from the tree line** hello humans. **Waves weakly at the camera** Kinie: Welcome! Here, sit down and have some green tea! **offers him some green tea in a cup.** Inuyasha: **sniffs the tea, then accepts it.** Thank you for the tea. **Sits down on the grass.** Kinie: So, do you feel up to answering a few questions? Inuyasha: Well, that's why you have me on your show, isn't it? **Sips the tea.** Kinie: I'll take that as a yes. So! First question! Do you have any idea how much your Tetsuaiga weighs before and after it has been repaired with your fang? Inuyasha: If I had to guess. I'd say around 60 pounds before, and 120 after. Kinie: Did you do any special training with the sword after it was fixed?

Inuyasha: Yeah. **Sips the tea.** I had to kill the demon who killed my father with the sword before I was able to use it like I had before it was fixed. Kinie: Do you ever get tired of killing all of these demons for the shards of the Jewel of Four Souls? Inuyasha: Yeah, I do. Any demon, half-demon, or even a human, gets affected in one way or another thanks to the power of the jewel shards. And, more often than not, a demon usually has at least two or three inside of them at any given time. Kinie: By our calculations. **Looks at several pieces of paper** Naraku has recovered approximatly 75 percent of the jewel shards, and that guess is including the one large piece that Kikyo had stolen from Kagome. You, Kagome, and the others, have only recovered approximately 5 percent of the shards after Kikyo stole your large shard. Do you feel pissed off at this possible fact? Inuyasha: Hell yeah I'm pissed off! How would you feel if some demon stole something that you had worked so hard to collect? **Drinks what's left of the tea, and sets the cup on the ground.** Kinie: You do know that Naraku isn't 100 percent demon, don't you? Inuyasha: yeah, I know that. No matter how many demons he might absorb, he'll still be half-demon, like me, thanks to that spider burn on his back. Kinie: Do you still plan to turn yourself into a full-fledged demon once you restore the Jewel of the Four Souls? Inuyasha: That's classified. Kinie: Would you like another cup of green tea? Inuyasha: Yes please.

Kinie is handed a pot filled with green tea. He pours Inuyasha another glass of tea. When it's full, Inuyasha sniffs the tea again, and then proceeded to drink from it.

Kinie: Umm. Why did you smell the tea before you drank it? Inuyasha: Excuse me? Kinie: Well, hen yo had your first glass of tea, you smelled it before you drank from it. Then, just a moment ago, you did the same thing again. Why did you do that? Inuyasha: Oh. **Sips some of the tea.** I was just making sure that you weren't trying to poison me, that's all. Kinie: Oh, cause I was just. Wait a minute. You think that we would deliberatly try to poison you and prevent you from completing your quest? Inuyasha: I had never heard of your show before, and I don't trust humans. **Sips some of the tea again.** Kinie: But you trust Kagome, Miroku, and Sango! Inuyasha: I trust them because they have proven thir worth in battle. You, my hosting friend, have not. Kinie: What, you wanna start something? **Grabs nearest broadsword, and enters a sword stance.** Inuyasha: Well why didn't you say so earlier? **Unsheathes Tetsusaiga, which enters it's transformed state.** Bring it on, tough guy!

Kinie charges at him, then suddenly disappears. Inuyasha sniffs the air, then thrusts his elbow behind him, right into the sternum of Kinie, who flies back and is stopped by a tree.

Kinie: Not bad! I didn't think you'd be this good! You usually bumble around before you finish off someone! **Dashes back to face him.** Inuyasha: Bumble around? That's what you think I do? Oh man, now I'm pissed!

Inuyasha swings Tetsaiga at Kinie, who ducks under the swing, ad delivers a good, loog, deep cut into Inuyasha's stomach. He follows up that cut with several slashes to his legs and arms, before kicking him back to the treeline. Inuyasha digs the sword into the ground, and there is a shift in the air currents. He stands up, and leaves Tetsaiga buried into the ground.

Kinie: Uh-oh. He let go of the sword. Somebody call in Kagome, quick!

Inuyasha looks at Kinie with his red demon eyes, and looks at his claws, whose nails extend outward several inches. He begins to charge at Kinie, who slowly backs up. Behind the cameraman, a woman comes runnng up.

Woman: Sit, biy!

The purple necklace around Inuyasha neck glows, and slams him into the ground. He gets up a second lanter, back to hi half-demon self.

Inuyasha: Kagome?!? What the hell are you doing here? Kagome: Inuyasha! What have I told you about NOT letting go of Tetsaiga when you're in a battle! That's your best weapon! You never let go of your best weapon! Inuyasha: Well, would you stop nagging me about the sword, woman! **Walks over, pulls Tetsaiga out of the ground, and sheaths it.** Jeez, it's not like I'm always going to go bloodthirsty demon on someone whenever Tetsaiga isn't right next to me! Kagome: You know as well as I that you hate going fully demon and having no control over yourself! You enter a berserer mode, and don't stop killing until you're knocked back to reality, or you get yourself killed!

Kinie: **Walks back into view of the camera.** Well, that's all the time we have for today's episode! Join us tomorrow for another installment of 'Interview of Anime Characters!'
