Chaper 6: Naraku Again and Going to Kagome's Time

Disclaimer: I don't think this is necessary. You know my disclaimer, so let's march on!

Yusuke stepped outside, sniffing the air. 'Ah! We'll be going to Kagome's time soon!' he thought cheerfully. 'Maybe then I'll be able to go home!' His eyes then trailed off to a person wearing a baboon pelt.

"Hey, baboon man!" Yusuke called, laughing. Naraku snorted.

Yusuke waited for an answer. But no, not one answer, no smart remark... nothing. Zero... well, you get the idea. He then shouted, "Baboon Man! Baboon Man! Has a big red butt! He never shows his face and never talks so he really sucks!" Yusuke chuckled to himself, even though his little stanza didn't exactly rhyme.

Soon, Yusuke got fed up with Naraku's silent act. He puched the "baboon man" straight on the head, only to find the pelt fall. "AAUUGGHH!! BABOON MAN... is GONE!!"

Sango poked her head out of Kaede's hut. "What baboon man?"

Yusuke picked up Naraku's "baboon suit" with two fingers and held it away from his face as if it was such a repulsive little thing. "This baboon man came and now he's gone!"

"He's not a baboon man!" Sango hissed. "He's Naraku!"

"OoOoHhHh..." Yusuke said. "Who's Naraku?"

Sango sighed. "I'll tell you later!" She slid back into the hut.

***********************

Kikyo wandered into a forest and ended up at Kaede's hut. She stared at a boy with black hair, holding Naraku's "baboon suit." 'Could that boy have... defeated Naraku?' she thought to herself. She shook the thought out of her mind.

"C'mon, Urameshi!" Kuwabara said, practically bouncing toward the Bone Eater's Well. Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama and Hiei stared down at the well. They didn't exactly trust wells as from when they got sucked into one.

"You expect me to drop into a well after I just got sucked into one?" Kuwabara asked.

"I have to say... yeaaahhh..." Kagome retorted. She held onto a shard of the Shikon no Tama tightly. She held her hand, adding, "Just hold my hand."

"No, I refuse to go in there!" Hiei shouted.

************************

A few minutes later, Hiei arrived at Kagome's time. Yes, they forced him down the well unwillingly. It's the cycle of life... there's some things you want to do and some things you have to. For instance, I want a new computer, but I can't. Umm, on with the story anyway.

Kagome was almost dancing when she arrived out of the well. Kuwabara was the last one to climb out of the well... but, he was more like scrambling out of the well. "No more Shikon shards.!" Kagome said, happily.

"You seem happy," Kurama pointed out.

"Yeah, the 'I have to study for a REALLY important test' excuse works every time! I just need a day off the crazy hunt for Shikon shards to celebrate Christmas! I'm gonna get everybody nice gifts! Even you guys!" Kagome smiled brightly and led up to her room where she opened her piggy bank to gather her Yen.*

"Christmas..." Kurama muttered. He mentally kicked himself in the head. How can he forget Christmas? He had to be there for his mother as always. What will be Kurama's excuse when he gets back? 'Gomen, but I was trapped in the Warring States Era.' It's never going to work and Kurama was never a good liar.

"AAUUGGHH!!" Kuwabara yelled. "It's three more days until Christmas at home! Oh, Shizuru will kill me if I don't do something for my mom!!"

"My mom doesn't even care," Yusuke said. Kagome stared at him.

"Doesn't even care?! What is she... drunk most of the time??" Kagome asked.

"Yeah," Yusuke replied.

"So, about how many demons are in this population?" Hiei asked. Kagome was startled because she almost forgot Hiei was there.

"Uhhh..." Kagome said, stopping for a second. "0"

"No demons?" Hiei asked. "Well, I guess you can add two."

"Yeah. Right... but you're not exactly planning to stay here, right?"

"Of course not!" Yusuke blurted out. Now he started to sound whiny. "I wanna go home!!"
