Disclaimer: Merfair, sitting on a log alongside a dirt path, sees a bushy-
tailed boy run past her. "Oi!"
"Eh?"
"Shippo-chan!"
"Who are you?" She noticed he was holding a rolled up piece paper.
"What's that?"
"Ms. Takahashi told me to bring it to her." Merfair glared at it, 'Is that it?'
"Can I see that?"
"No."
"Please, I'll give you candy." His eyes lit up.
"Sure!" He was about to hand it over when *whack* "Itai! Miroku!"
"Didn't you ever learn not to talk to strangers?"
"Miroku!"
"Come on Shippo, we've fallen behind. We gotta get this back to Lady Takahashi." Merfair sighed.
"Oh well, I don't own Inuyasha."
Chapter 28:
"This is just so much fun. What are we doing again?" Kagome asked sarcastically. Inuyasha just rolled his eyes. "If we're not doing anything, but walking, can I go home?"
"No way!"
"Why not?"
"Something might pop up. You can never be too prepared."
"We're prepared?"
"There they go again; I was getting a little worried."
"Nani Miroku?" He smiled for was now using his name, finally.
"Well they haven't argued in the longest time."
"You're right." They stared with sweat drops at the warring couple, waiting for the ending word.
"Osuwari!"
"And there you have it, another point goes to Kagome-sama."
"Ah shut up bouzu!" Inuyasha said into the dirt so it more or less sounded like: "O shu op zu!"
"Inuyasha I have to go back for a bit. I'm so far behind in school." He had gotten up out of his self-made ditch, dusting the dirt off. He sighed; he hated it when she wanted to go home.
"Fine let's go before I change my mind."
"You mean 'we'?"
"Yeah, what else am I gonna do here?"
"You'll only be a distraction."
"Oh really, so you don't want me to come with you?"
"It's not that.."
"Fine I won't come. Feh!" He rolled his eyes again. Suddenly and unsuspectingly she kissed his cheek, wiping away all the hurt her words had just caused him.
"It will only take a couple of days to get caught up. I hope I don't have a test. Oh well my friends are very helpful when it comes to schoolwork."
"Okay; I'll take you home."
"Arigato for understanding." She crawled onto his back and they headed for the well.
"Maybe Miroku, we should go to Kaede's and wait there. I have a feeling a certain hanyou and miko will be over on her side tonight, despite her protests."
"Uh huh.I know..well let's get going."
Kagome and Inuyasha arrived at the bone-eater's well. "Well I'll see you soon."
"Okay." He said gloomily.
"Look on the bright side Inuyasha, this gives me a chance to restock on some Ramen, ne?" His ears perked up and he smiled. They kissed goodbye and she hopped into the well. When she reached the bottom she looked up to see the well house roof. 'Home.' She smiled. "I do wish he were here though, demo it's better this way, this time. I'll get back as soon as possible." She crawled out of the well and raced to the house. "Mama, Souta, Grandfather!" She called, but no one seemed to be home. "That's odd, at least gramps is here." She went upstairs and set down her bag. She tore through the house only to find Buyo laying on the couch. Kagome went back into the kitchen. On the table was a piece of paper. "Hmmm.a note?" Kagome picked it up; it read:
'Dear Kagome,
We are at the hospital. Your mother has been in a serious car accident. Get here as soon as you can.
Gramps' Kagome's hands started to shake and tears welled up in her eyes. She dropped the note and ran out the door, not thinking about anyone, but her mother.
"Eh?"
"Shippo-chan!"
"Who are you?" She noticed he was holding a rolled up piece paper.
