Six-Boy of Fire Lady of Water
She fell on the couch while Vash starred wide-eyed at her. InuYasha popped his head in from the hallway. "Good news boys!" She said trying hard not to sound like she had been crying, even though it was quite apparent. "Good news!! Ohh what is it!" Vash said flopping down onto the couch next to her. She smiled and motioned for InuYasha to join her and Vash. It took him a few seconds but he managed to sit in front of the two. "We're going to a tournament!" She said, Vash clapped, InuYasha lowered his head then looked Yoshimi in the eyes. "What about work?" He asked, "I quit." She muttered looking away knowing he'd yell at her. "Really?" He said before pulling her from the couch and shoving her into her room. She stopped in the doorway as InuYasha turned and pulled Vash toward the back. "Well Yos-chan get packing!" He yelled, "Ow!" Vash ran into a wall.
"We're lost!!" InuYasha grumbled as Yos-chan held a map out in front of him. She was on his back while Vash was doing sit-ups to pass time. "Hmm well lets head north," " I thought this thing was in Treah City?" "It is but I...," "Then we go east!" , " I need two more bishes and badges! We're going north toward Balkan!" "You can get badges on the way and what the hell is with new bishies?!" "Well lets go north then!" Vash chimed in smiling and pulling the map from Yoshimi. InuYasha growled and pushed Yoshimi up a little higher on his back. "Yay!" Yoshimi said high-fiveing Vash. InuYasha growled more, "Oh don't worry Inu-sama we have almost a month before this thing starts! We'll get to Treah City in plenty of time!!" Yoshimi said patting the hanyou's head. "Fine north it is. Can you keep up this time Vash?" Vash shot InuYasha a dirty look as he sped ahead. "YEAH CAN YOU!" He yelled as he went. "Heh." InuYasha leapt into the air as Yoshimi wrapped her arms around his neck yelled "Wooohooo!!" He laughed, maybe she'd stay happy now!
They stopped in a middle of small forest clearing; Yoshimi was setting up sleeping bags while Vash got firewood. InuYasha was checking to be sure no one else was around and got some water. After camp was set and a nice fire was going Yoshimi grabbed her bishie belt. She placed it on and for a long time starred at it. "Been awhile since you've worn that thing." InuYasha said as he lay on his back looking up at the stars. "Hai, I'm going off now." She grabbed a flashlight from her backpack and headed towards the woods. "Not without one of us your not!" InuYasha hissed as he stood up. Vash looked over at him from his sleeping bag. "Inu-sama I'll be fine." She snapped her fingers as her fans appeared. She hooking them to her belt and headed off again. InuYasha started after her "Sit." he fell face first into the ground as she disappeared into the on coming darkness. After the spell wore off he sat with his arms and legs crossed looking after the spot where she left. Vash laughed, InuYasha looked at him with scowl, "What?!" He demanded. "Nothing." Vash answered as he put his arms behind his head and closed his eyes.
Yoshimi was standing a tree looking down on the back at a redheaded man who appeared to be alone. She leapt down from the tree a few feet behind him. The man turned holding a metal tessen, which's tip was on fire. "Who there?!" He said as Yoshimi moved forward from the shadows. She had tears streaming down her face and had managed to make her right arm bleed. "Help me." She said moving closer to the man who looked at her like she was crazy. "Yer a trainer!" He said moving backwards. "Gen-chan, help me!" She wailed as she fell to her knees. "Gen-chan? Damn trainers!" She removed a bishie ball from her belt. She looked up at him, her eyes flashed as she threw the ball. She had caught Tasuki.
She walked back into camp and hour later holding a bishie ball in a right hand. InuYasha's ears perked up as she sat next to him. She nudged Vash who woke up instantly. "Well?" InuYasha said poking at the ball. She rolled the ball lightly away from where everyone was. "Come on out Gen-chan." She said softly as a light burst from the ball and Tasuki stood angrily starring at Yoshimi who smiled. "Damn you woman!!" He said sitting crossed legged in front of her. Vash yawned; InuYasha grabbed the hilt of his sword. "What did you say?" He growled, Tasuki looked at InuYasha and poked one of his ears. "What the hell are you? Some kind of dog boy?" He said poking it more. InuYasha was about to hit him till Yoshimi grabbed his hand and shook her head. "But!" "No Inu-sama." She said flatly. "Hello Tasuki I'm Yoshimi, this is InuYasha and Vash." She said bowing her head. Tasuki grinned and placed a hand under his trainer's chin pulling her face dangerously close to his. "Hey." He said as he kissed her, the reaction an instant. InuYasha grabbed the red head and tossed him against a tree while both Vash and Yoshimi sat stunned. Tasuki recovered quickly and stood up ready to fight. "What the hell was that for!" Both yelled at once. Tasuki answered first, "What never kissed a girl before Dog-boy! Heh, well by the looks of it I doubt any would want to." He said with a laugh. "That tree didn't deserve your stinking body thrown on it." InuYasha growled as he charged. Yoshimi jumped up "SIT!!!" She yelled as InuYasha landed face first into the ground. She was at his side in and instant helping him up. "Cool it Inu-sama! You two have to work together ya know!" She yelled looking up at Tasuki looked innocent. InuYasha sat up and put an arm around Yoshimi. "Fine!" He pushed up to where he was standing and pulled Yoshimi with him. He looked at Tasuki one more time as he headed back toward his sleeping bag. "Teh." Was all he said. Yoshimi smiled and turned to Tasuki. "Is he always like that?" Tasuki asked looking at the hanyou. "Yeah." Yoshimi answered, as she looked at InuYasha her smile growing. "Like that Dog-boy do ya?" Tasuki asked she shook her head. "No, he's just always been there for me. I have much respect for him." She replied turning back to Tasuki. "Why'd you kiss me Gen-chan?" She asked her blue-gray eyes blinking like a child's. He looked up at the night sky "Dunno, one of them spur of the moments I guess." He said with a nod. She laughed; she has a wonderful laugh, like silver bell. He thought smiling; she turned grabbing his hand and dragging him back toward camp. She set up another sleeping bag for him. She yawned, "I'm going to sleep." Yoshimi said crawling into her sleeping bag that was next to Vash. Vash had already fallen asleep and was snoring. InuYasha was starring up at the sky; Tasuki laid down and fell asleep quickly. Three now, what's running through Yoshimi's head. First she quits her job, and now she off capturing more bishies. InuYasha thought as he looked over at his trainer. He snuggled into his own sleeping bag feeling sleep grab him quickly.
The next morning Yoshimi made pancakes and bacon. Tasuki and Vash were diving in when InuYasha awoke; he had to push the two to get anything. "Hey no pushing." Yoshimi said smiling as she handed InuYasha a plate. "Whatever." He said flatly has he crossed his legs and ate. "MMM!! Yoshimi this is wonderful!" Vash said holding his plate out for another helping. Yoshimi giggled as she placed some more food on Vash's plate. "Feh!" InuYasha muttered between mouthfuls, when he finished he handed the plate to Yoshimi. She looked at him her eyes held his for a moment before he turned away and headed toward the stream he found yesterday. Tasuki set his plate down and looked at Yoshimi who was eating her own food. Vash finished and set his plate down as well. Yoshimi finished quickly and gathered the dirty dishes; she headed toward the stream when Vash took the dirty plates from her. "Oh no you don't! You made camp! You cooked! I'm cleaning the dishes!!" He exclaimed posing dramatically. Yoshimi laughed and nodded and began to roll up the sleeping bags and shove them back into their capsules. Tasuki shook his head and stopped Yoshimi. "Nope! If he can clean the dishes, I'm gonna put this things away!" He said as began to roll up the sleeping bags. Yoshimi sighed and sat under a large tree. InuYasha came back and looked at Vash and Tasuki, he turned to Yoshimi with a question mark above his head. "They wanted to so don't look at me like that!" She said crossing her arms and sticking her tongue out at him. He walked up to her and bent down to where their faces were merely inches apart. "Oh yeah?" He said forcing an eyebrow to twitch. "Yeah!" She exclaimed poking his nose. They both laughed, Tasuki and Vash were watching, laughing. The two ignored the laughing boys; InuYasha pulled Yoshimi to her feet. "Better get going." He said she nodded as she grabbed her bag putting the capsules Tasuki had fixed into it as well as the no cleaning dishes. "Move out!" She said laughing as headed toward the path.
They seemed to walk for hours till they came to the next town. Yoshimi had to show the gate guard her 'phone' that held her id. He nodded and allowed her and her three bishonen into the city. They checked into a small hotel, Yoshimi had to pull for a four bed room, Tasuki and InuYasha refused to have to sleep together or having one of them sleep with Yoshimi. Vash laughed and was beaten for it. Yoshimi sighed and pulled some money to pay for four beds. She made sure and told Tasuki and InuYasha they were going to work to earn that money back. That evening they explored the town, Yoshimi got obsessed about the local clothing store, the bishonen had to drag her away from the window. Tasuki and InuYasha explored the weapons shop thoroughly and begged for upgraded weapons, only to be hit with the 'hotel price tag'. Vash wanted to go to local bar Tasuki did too. So begging them not to get drunk Yoshimi handed them a small bit of money and she and InuYasha headed for the gym. Yoshimi signed her and InuYasha in and they headed toward the training room. "Gonna practice or something Yos-chan?" InuYasha asked as he drew Tetsusaiga. She shook her head and took a seat against the back wall as InuYasha began to hack away at a punching bag. She titled her head back and looked up at the ceiling, it's been awhile since I've been to a gym, heh. She thought with a laugh, "What's so funny?" InuYasha asked as he continued to hack at the bag. "Just thinking…" She said closing her eyes and opening them again. Vash and Tasuki came in an hour later, drunk. Yoshimi shook her head as she dragged them to a co-ed bathroom and placed both of their heads in different sinks turning the water on. Instantly they pulled their heads from the sink and scowled at Yoshimi. She giggled, as their once spiky hair was in a wet mess a top of their heads. She left the bathroom laughing into tears; they came out a few seconds later. "Hey Yos-chan…whoa…HAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!!" InuYasha doubled over in laugher seeing the other two bishonen's head's soaked. Vash and Tasuki each grabbed their trainer and the hanyou and dragged them from the gym and to the hotel. Each took his or her respective bed and laid down. Both InuYasha and Yoshimi were still in fits of laughter, so Tasuki and Vash each grabbed a cup of water. Tasuki stood over Yoshimi, and Vash over InuYasha. "One, Two…THREE!" They yelled as the dumped the water on the two. Yoshimi pounced on Tasuki, InuYasha merely kicked Vash. Tasuki smiled up at Yoshimi who playfully pawed his face before crawling back onto to her bed, which squished beneath her. After a few minutes she passed out clinging to the dampness of her sheets. InuYasha watched as Yoshimi, then Vash, and finally Tasuki fell asleep. He got up and turned off the lights and slipped back into his bed. He finally gave into sleep as he heard Yoshimi mummer something in her sleep.
She was screaming now, her screams woke her three bishonen up; Vash ran and hit the lights. She was trashing in her sheets screaming her lungs out. InuYasha began to shake her as Tasuki ran for some water. Vash paled, she wasn't waking up. Tasuki dumped another cup of cold water on his trainer. She remained screaming. A knock came to the room door. Vashed answered it, three other trainers and their bishies stood outside it angrily. "Shut her up will you?!" One yelled, "Damnit she's asleep and she won't wake up!" InuYasha yelled back pulling her closer to him. "Come on Yos-chan wake up please." She shook but her screams stopped. She remained asleep she seemed fine. "Whats wrong with her?" Vash asked closing the door. "I don't know." InuYasha said holding Yoshimi tightly. Tasuki sat down on the bed next to InuYasha and checked Yoshimi's breathing. "Bad dream most likely." He said, "But those screams…that was unreal." Vash said sitting down on his bed. Yoshimi squinted her eyes before she opened them. "What's going on?" She said with a yawn. The three starred wide-eyed at her. "Did you have a bad dream Yos-chan?" Tasuki said patting her head. "No…why?" She asking looking at them, Vash walked over and sat next to her, InuYasha felt her head. "You were screaming madly, you woke up everyone in this hotel!" Vash said his eyes full of worry. "I was?" she said looking at her sheets. They all sat in silence, Yoshimi feel against InuYasha's chest asleep. Vash went back to his bed and laid down, Tasuki did the same. Sighing InuYasha lay down on Yoshmi's bed with her hoping he wouldn't wake her up. Vash grumbled as he stood up and turned off the lights again.
The next morning they left the small town and continued onward toward Balkan. Once again Yoshimi and InuYasha were tangled in an argument about which way to go. "Its this way!" InuYasha yelled pointing toward a right path, they had managed to find a forked road, and the two debated on which fork to take. "No!" Yoshimi yelled pointing at the map, "It the on straight ahead!" "Oye! Lets just go straight!" That was Vash and Tasuki looked at each other and walked on the straight path. "Fine." InuYasha grumbled walking slowly behind Yoshimi, she stopped suddenly and fell to her knees holding her head. InuYasha was instantly at her side, "Yoshimi? What's wrong?" The other two turned around as Yoshimi pushed InuYasha away and ran fast in the forest on their right. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!" He yelled jumping up and heading after her. "Come on Vash." Tasuki said pulling out his tessen, Vash nodded and reached for his gun. Yoshimi ran to a small pond where she stood till she heard someone crash down behind her. "YOSHIMI WHY DID YOU….you…" She turned to look at the hanyou her eyes were full black, she snapped her fingers and instantly her fans appeared in her hands. "Yos?" She leapt into the air holding her fans across her chest. InuYasha moved quickly as she came crashing down like she had when she fought Yukio. She stood up smiling as she snapped her fingers again making her fans disappear. She walked back to the lake and dove in. Vash and Tasuki now entered the small clearing seeing InuYasha starring at the lake. "What wrong?" Tasuki said poking the bishonen with his tessen. "She attacked me." InuYasha said flatly, he sat on the ground crossing his legs and arms. Vash moved to the lake side, "Well where is she?" Vash said his voice seemed cold now. "She dove into the lake!" InuYasha yelled. "Good enough." Vash muttered setting down his gun and taking off his red coat. "What hell are you doing?!" Both InuYasha and Tasuki screamed. "Going after her of course! Come on Tasuki lets go!" He said as he dove in. "Nah I'll stay behind thanks!" Tasuki said turning his back to the water, he shivered. Vash swam deep into the pond where he found Yoshimi, she had her legs bound in weeds and she was floating upside down with her eyes closed. He quickly freed her from the weeds and pulled her to the surface. He gasped for air as he held her high, after a few seconds she managed to wake up. She looked at face her face full of horror. "What's wrong?" Vash asked worried now. "A dragon!" She sat clinging to tightly to Vash, something moved below him. "Eeep!" He yelled swimming fast to the shore and practically jumping out holding Yoshimi. "Mizu no Ryu!!" A dragon made of water emerged from the pond and headed for Vash and Yoshimi. "Iron Reamer Soul Stealer!" InuYasha sliced through the dragon with his claws. A bishoujo appeared standing the center of the lake on a large blue hump. "Pretty good, but that girl has to die." Yoshimi pulled from Vash and grabbed a ball. She snapped her fingers as a single fan appeared. She held the fan in front of her as she leapt into the air. "YOSHIMI!!" The three bishonen yelled as she was directly above the bishoujo she threw the ball, it caught the bishoujo, though she was screaming. The blue hump disappeared and the ball returned to Yoshimi's hand. She snapped her fingers and the fan disappeared, she fell into the water. After a few moments she managed to drag herself on the shore clutching the ball in her hand. "I caught Umi." She said between breaths, Tasuki whimpered, Vash laughed, and InuYasha shook Yoshimi, "BAKA!!" He yelled, she smiled at him and passed out. "She does that a lot now a days." Vash said InuYasha kicked him.
