Chapter 6

When Anoush woke up she found out that she was the last one in bed.

"Your awake. I was afraid I would have to wake you." Said Mayling.

"Lucky you. Where is Miaka and Tamahome?" asked Anoush looking at Nuriko.

"Tamahome is burying his family. Miaka just went up there." Answered Nuriko.

"I see." Said Anoush.

Then they saw Miaka running toward them. She ran into Nuriko arms.

"NUURRIKO!!!" cried Miaka.

"Its alright Miaka. Its alright." Whispered Nuriko.

Mayling and Anoush packed up and got ready for to leave.

~They will make a promise, both of them. ~ Mayling

~Yes, I know ~ Anoush

They were leaving when Tamahome came back.

"You weren't leaving me were you?" asked Tamahome smiling.

"Well..I thought that you would want to stay." Said Miaka.

"No I am going." Said Tamahome.

They got back to Konan in an hour or so. They went to the ship and found the rest of the Suzaku warriors there. They told them what happen while Tamahome was having fun acting like he was going to throw Tasuki in the water. They laughed.

"I will tell Tasuki later." Said Chichiri.

Miaka gave Hotohori her bear. Mayling and Anoush look at each thinking the same thing.

~Why, did she bring the bear to this world in the first place. ~ Mayling and Anoush

They laughed on the way on the ship. The others said goodbye and got on too.

The first day on the ship was ok. Mayling and Anoush thought it would be good to get to know the Suzaku seven. So Mayling left to go talk to Nuriko who was cooking. Anoush left to talk to Tasuki.

Mayling

"Hey Nuriko. Need some help?" asked Mayling

"Sure as long as you don't be like Miaka and eat it." Said Nuriko laughing.

"No I won't." said Mayling. "I have to do something to help. I feel like I am here for the ride."

"Nahh. Don't think you are a burden. If you can help us then you can help us. Don't worry about. So do you miss your family?" asked Nuriko.

"Yeah but I will live. I have mom, dad, grandma and last my brother to worry about but they will be fine I know it." Answered Mayling.

"You have a brother?" said Nuriko.

"Yep. He is my older brother. Not the best just ok. He doesn't act like he care about me but mom says he does." Said Mayling

"A older brother eh? Well I bet he cares for you and while you're here I will be your older brother for him. Ok?" asked Nuriko.

"OK!" said Mayling.

"Lunch is ready!" yelled Nuriko

Meanwhile

"Hey Tasuki whats up" asked Anoush.

"Nothing much you? Answered Tasuki.

"Same. I see you are afraid of the water. Don't worry I know a lot of people who can't swim." Said Anoush.

"Oh really like who." Asked Tasuki.

"Like Mayling. She couldn't swim if her life depended on it but tell her I said that." Laughed Anoush.

They laughed. "So how did you get that fan." Asked Anoush (couldn't think of something to talk about.)

"Oh it was my boss keepsake. And it belong to me because I am the new boss for the bandits." Answered Tasuki.

"Oh cool." Said Anoush.

Then Miaka ran by saying FOOD! They laughed and went to eat.

Reminder: I don't own anything but Mayling and Anoush belongs to my friend.

R&R!
