~ Puppy Ears ~
~ Chapter Two ~
Disclaimer : Ack, almost forgot this last time. I don't own InuYasha or any chars from it. Yep. That's about it...
Pika : Hiya again! Yeah, how's everyone? Good, I hope. Anyway, thankies to all those who're reading! Yeah. ^^; This ish my first romance and my first InuYasha fic. I hope it's good enough... anyway, time for the annual review & reply!
To Inu_Katsuya, thankies for reading my fic! ^_^ Lol, who's gonna figure it out first? I already know that, but i'm not telling! And about the cloaked guy, i'm sure Shippou will do fine for now. Pika : Now that that's done, let's get on with the fic!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------
(I feel kinda bad about tricking Kagome. I hope she'll forgive me, if she finds out. But.. I guess it's the only way, and i've never seen her happier before! She's so happy to think that Inu Yasha is back to life. Sadly, he isn't...
Trust me, if he was back, I would be there to see him. I look up to him, no matter how much I seemed to purposly annoy him. I wonder.. maybe he is still alive? Maybe we did miss him, even though Kagome forced us to stay in the area of the final battle for days, waiting to see Inu Yasha again?
It would break her heart it I stopped now, I have to stay as Inu Yasha! I have to pretend, for her, and for Miroku and Sango, who were so happy to think I was him, too. I'm just glad none of them are demons, otherwise, they could sniff me out in a instant.)
~-------------------------------------~
Shippou, in Inu Yasha's form gave Kagome another tight hug. Kagome hugged him back. She really had never looked happier, to be sitting on the kitchen floor, hugging Inu Yasha after not seeing him in a year. Miroku and Sango were smiling, as Kirara had walked beside Sango and twitched her nose. She couldn't figure out why everyone was thinking Shippou was Inu Yasha, because she could smell things. Though, Kirara saw Sango was happy, so didn't want to ruin it for her. She watched Shippou and Kagome, hugging each other happily.
Kagome finally stood up, and Shippou stood up with her. Kagome smiled to him, she had finished crying a small bit ago.
"Inu Yasha," She said. "It's... just so great to see you again. You should go around the village, show all the other villagers you're alive." Shippou nodded. If he was to act as Inu Yasha, he should atleast get the other villagers to believe him as well.
"Sure, i'll go." He smiled and looked to Miroku and Sango.
"We'll wait here." Sango said, and then watched Kirara hop over to Shippou's side. Shippou gave a small panicked look, but quickly dropped it so the other's wouldn't suspect anything. He had forgotten that Kirara can smell his scent! Miroku agreed with Sango, and then the two walked back out to the front deck. Kagome gave another smile.
"I'll stay here and finish making some lunch for me and Sango. Do you want anything?" She asked, happier than ever. Shippou shook his head, for he had eaten just shortly before. Then he headed out the door, with Kirara on his trail.
~-------------------------------------~
Shippou and Kirara walked down the road in the village. The midday sun hit them, and the sweet spring breeze brushed their hair and fur slowly. Shippou had been twitching his ears now and then, enjoying the feel of them. After a while, and when he saw no one in the area, he looked down to the two tailed cat.
"I really thought you were going to tell Sango who I was back there." Shippou said to her while walking, his white hair from the illusion falling in front of his face. Kirara just mewed and shook her head. Shippou smiled. "Thanks. I'm only doing because... I really.." He turned bright red and looked ahead to the road they were walking on. Kirara was looking up to him as they walked. "... I really... care about her.. alot." He finally said, and he kept going straight ahead, not wanting to give it too much conversation. Kirara gave a questioning mew, then gave up and looked ahead to the road as well.
As they walked, a group of villagers noticed them. Several of them shouted 'It's Inu Yasha!', and the whole group of them ran over to great the dog demon that they thought was dead, though they didn't know it was really Shippou. Shippou nodded, and trying to get Inu Yasha's attitude correct, began to speak in a way you would never think Shippou would speak. "Damn right, it's me! Do ya think I would die that easily?!" He managed to say, all the villagers shook their heads.
"I believed in you!" One said, a few others nodded. Shippou smiled proudly, with the best Inu Yasha face he had.
"Hey, Inu Yasha!" One of the villagers shouted. Shippou looked over. "What do you say you show us that Tetsusaiga of yours?" Shippou was slightly alarmed by this. He was only an illusion of Inu Yasha, he couldn't properly use a Tetsusaiga that wasn't there!
"Uh... well, maybe la--" Shippou began, but one of the villagers butted in.
"Come on, you promised!!" They said, smiling. The kids in the group cheered.
"Yay!" They said to each other. "We're gonna see the Tetsusaiga!"
Shippou's eye twitched. Kirara looked up to him with a 'You're on your own' kind of look. "U-uh..I.. lost it." Shippou finally came up with his excuse, and looked down. "I lost my great sword."
"No you didn't!" The first villager said. "You must have just fogotten. It's in it's case on the side of your leg, as always!"
Shippou's eye twiched again. (My illusion.. is too good for MY own good!) He thought to himself. Kirara had produced a small sweat drop on the side of her face. Shippou held his hand to his forehead in annoyance, then finally realised there was no escaping the villagers. Sighing, he turned around. (Looks like i'm gonna have to try and fake the Tetsusaiga...) He began to walk towards a tree. All the villagers watched in awe. Shippou slowly looked to his illusion sword case. He gulped.
Kirara had known by then that there was no way he could pull this off. She looked to the villagers, the nudged Shippou. Shippou looked down to her with a puzzled look. Kirara mewed. Sadly, Shippou couldn't understand Kirara. He blinked. The small cat seemed to get slightly annoyed by this, and mewed a bit louder. The villagers watched the argument bettween 'Inu Yasha' and Kirara continue, as Shippou continued to be puzzled, and Kirara continued to mew, each time getting louder and louder. And she was getting much mroe annoyed. Shippou was only becoming more confused. Kirara, finally mad enough, shook her head. As she did that, flames began to surround her. Shippou backed up a bit, and after about five second, the flames died down, and Kirara had gone to her larger form, a more ferocious looking cat-type thing. Shippou was shocked by this, but looking at her, knew that she had an idea. The villagers, only getting slightly impatient, were getting even more confused. Kirara returned, and Shippou had now gotten her idea.
"Alright!" He said. "I'm ready now!" With a huge smiled on his face, he turned his back to the crowd. Then, with his hand on the fake Tetsusaiga's handle, he mumbled the words 'Fox Fire', under his breath, low enough for no one to hear it. You see, the trick was, these villagers had never seen the Tetsusaiga before, so anything went. Then, just as his Fox Fire took effect, he drew his sword into the fire, making it look as if when the sword was drawn, blue fire surrounded it and covered it.
The crowd cheered. They were so amazed at the fact that a simple sword could do such a thing! Shippou took a bow, and swung the sword around in the air a few times, as the flames followed it. The crowd cheered even more for Shippou's display.
"Inu Yasha!" One of them shouted through the cheering. "Cut down that tree with it!" Everyone shouted in agreement with the person, and Shippou's eye began to twitch again. It was only an illusion, it couldn't cut through a tree. He looked down to Kirara for help. Kirara just blinked cutely at him. He blinked back down at her. They stared at each other for a little bit, untill Kirara stood up.
(Yes!) Shippou thought. (She has an idea!) Sadly, she just walked over to a small patch of grass and began sniffing it. Shippou's expression changed quickly, as he watched the small cat abandon him in his time of most need. Kirara then turned around to look at him again. Shippou almost began to smile again, untill Kirara curled up in a ball in the grass and went to sleep. Shippou yet out a small scream with Inu Yasha's voice as he fell down. The towns people watched him with a few eyebrows raised.
"... maybe Lady Kagome said 'sit'?" One of them noted, as they watched their wonderfull half-dog demon lie down on the ground and twitch.
~-------------------------------------~
Miroku and Sango sat on th front deck, waiting for Kagome to finish cooking. They were both staring up into the sky, watching a few birds fly by. Then Sango decided to speak with Miroku about something she had been thinking about.
"Miroku," She began, looking to him. "I know, in the past, there have been demons pretending to be Inu Yasha to get the Shikon Jewel, but this one is different from them. Not only does he care about Kagome much more than all the fakes, but the rosary beads around his neck actually seemed to work, and wasn't faked like all the others. The only problem is.." She looked down to the wood of the deck in thought.
Miroku looked at her, puzzled. "What is it?" He was sitting directly beside her, looking to her curiously.
"I think Kirara knows something that we don't, but she didn't mention anything to me. The last time we had a fake, she was the one to figure it out." Sango answered, and looked up to Miroku. "I don't know, I was just thinking about it."
Miroku nodded to her, getting to what she was saying. He put an arm around her waist. If you are really that worried, I can go see what those two are doing." He smiled to her. Sango nodded.
"It's not that i'm worried, i'm just curious why Kirara went with Inu Yasha." She said, then looked out to the town. "I guess the return of Inu Yasha just has me in thought."
Miroku moved the hand from her waist, and being the man he was, put it down lower as he talked to her with a large smile across his face. "Don't worry, i'll go check it out right now." He stood up and began to walk away, but not before Sango had become slightly annoyed by him.
Clutching her fist, she said calmy, "Miroku, will you come here a moment?"
"Hm?" Miroku turned around and walked over. "Yes?"
-- SLAP! --
~-------------------------------------~
"C'mon Inu Yasha, we know you can do it!" One of the villagers shouted out to Shippou, who had now gotten up from falling. Slightly glaring at the sleeping Kirara, he sighed and looked at his Tetsusaiga. (How am I gonna cut a tree in half with something that doesn't really exist?!) He thought to himself, then took a deep breath and looked at the tree that stood before him. He raised the fake Tetsaiga, and swung it, praying for the best. He shut his eyes, and heard the sound of the sword colliding with something, and a big thump. (Oh no! What if I hit something else?!) He opened one eye carefully, and then opened the other and blinked. All the villager people were claping. Shippou was stunned for a moment, but then quickly changed his frown to a pround smile and turned to the audience, trying to act as well as Inu Yasha as he could.
"There, you happy now?" He asked, as they all clapped, and cheered, and nodded. With a quick sigh, he waved to the group, and picked up the half asleep Kirara. He then walked down the road. (Geez, what an adveture. The who thing has me a little tired, thought...) He thought and walked away, as Kirara yawned to herself and sat up in his arms.
From a distant tree, hearing all the cheering from the audience of Shippou, the cloaked figure that handed the necklace to Shippou sat. He had his hand held out, and was obviously the one responsible for cutting down the tree. He smiled to himself, as he watched Shippou and Kirara walk down the road.
"It's going just as I planned." He said. "Shippou's illusion is turning out, but soon, he'll need much more than an illusion to keep himself in the form of Inu Yasha..."
~-------------------------------------~
Shippou and Kirara turned the corner of a street they were walking on. Kirara was now walking and no longer being held by Shippou, and Shippou was walking, twitching his ears now and then. He loved the dog ears, and had fun twitching them.
As Shippou turned the corner, he noticed someone sitting down in the front of their house, thinking and planning something. Being the friendly fox he was, he waved to them. Just as he waved, the person looked up. A shock came to their face, but then they jolted up.
"Inu Yasha!!" They shouted, sounding either happy or angry. Shippou began to worry he did something wrong, and backed up a bit.
"W-what?!" He asked quickly, looking to the woman who yelled at him. She gave him a look, and nodded.
"Don't tell me you all ready forgot!" She shouted at him, and gave him a slight glare. Shippou backed up a bit more.
"U-uh.. can you fill me in?" Shippou asked politely, and she sighed and nodded.
"You still owe me a favor. For when you totally destroyed my house before you went on the journey. You promised me you'd do something for me! And, i've got the perfect thing for you!" She smiled to him. Shippou then knew he had just gotten himself into more trouble.
"O-oh... and.. what might you want me to do?" The fox looked to the girl. Her smiled only grew wider.
"Miroku and Sango's wedding, in a few weeks... it isn't really." She explained. Shippou was shocked at this.
"Do Miroku and Sango know this?!" He asked, alarmed for a moment.
"Miroku does." She replied. "It's a surprise for Sango. In truth.. it's in a few days! Three to be exact. Sango is going to be so happy!" Then she frowned. "I know Shippou, the fox demon, went on a trip and is due back in a few weeks for the wedding. Miroku told me. And we couldn't figure out a way to alert him. But, now i've thought of it!" She pointed to a road. "I need you to go and get Shippou for me!"
Shippou jumped back. (Get myself?! How am I gonna have myself and the illusion Inu Yasha at the same time??) He gulped, and looked down, knowing he couldn't avoid this. "I.. i'll do my best." The girl smiled, as Shippou began to walk away. Kirara followed by his side, now knowing Shippou had a slight problem.
"Thank you!" She yelled. "Miroku should talk to you about it sometime, too!!"
~-------------------------------------~
Pika : Thanks again for reading this, it's just a small idea I had. ^^;; Anyway, please review, and here's your preview for next time!

Also, during a conversation, Shippou accidentally gives himself away to someone he didn't expect to find out so soon ; can Shippou solve all his problems, and try not to cause too much trouble? Find out next time, in...
