"C'mon!!! Get up!!! Get up!! Get up!!!"
Inu-Yasha groggily opened his eyes to find a little girl sitting on his chest. He merely rolled over, causing the girl to fall off, and closed his eyes again.
"Get up!!! Getupgetupgetupgetupgetup!!!"
Now Myuka was bouncing up and down on his back.
"Oi, kid, get off my back. " he mumbled into the dirt.
"GET!!!! UP!!!!!"
Myuka grabbed Inu-Yasha's sidelocks and pulled. Hard.
"OOOOWWWW!!!!!!!! Stupid runt!!! I'm gonna strangle you!!!"
Myuka screamed and hid behind a tree. Inu-Yasha stood and brushed the grass from his haori, all the while cursing under his breath.
Myuka reappeared from behind the tree. She already had everything packed and had her backpack on.
"All right, runt. Let's get going."
The pair had been journeying for over a week now led on by a constant path of death from town to town. Whenever their food supply became too low, Myuka would go into the nearest town and get more with the money she had brought along. It never ceased to amaze Inu-Yasha how much this little girl had thought of. He himself hadn't even remembered food in the first place. It was plain that she loved adventure and also loved hearing about others adventures as well. Each night, she asked Inu-Yasha to tell her about the adventures he and Kagome had together. Inu-Yasha told her a little bit each night and would stop when Myuka fell asleep. Inu-Yasha had to admit that he enjoyed telling the little girl about his adventures, but now he was nearing the end of his tale. The part where-
"Hey wow!! Look at that!" Myuka squealed. She had found another new animal.
Inu-Yasha sighed. He climbed to the top of a nearby hill and looked ahead. The next town was close. They would have to buy more food there since their current food supply was running low again. They could also collect rumors there. The demon had most likely attacked this town, too. Beyond the town was a large forest that they would undoubtedly have to walk through. Myuka scrambled up the hill and stood beside Inu-Yasha.
"Wow! Look at that!" she said looking at the forest beyond the little city. "It's so pretty! Are we going there?"
"Yeah. Probably."
"Hey, Inu-Yasha. Why is the forest glowing over there?"
Myuka pointed to a part of the forest a little ways off.
"I don't see anything," Inu-Yasha replied.
"You don't?"
"No. That's not good if you're seeing things. Maybe we've been walking too much." 'Or maybe you see the aura of the demon we're after,' Inu-Yasha thought to himself. "Let's go. We need to get some more food.
~
"Do you have the money, kid?"
Myuka nodded.
"Okay, remember to listen for anything unusual."
"Don't worry! I won't forget!"
With that, Myuka ran into the town. Inu-Yasha found a comfortable tree and waited for Myuka to come back.
~
It was just as Inu-Yasha had thought. When Myuka had gone into the town to get more food, she had heard about an attack in that city, too. Five attacks, to be precise. That definitely meant that they were getting closer to where the demon wanted them. Now the sun was setting and they were even closer to their destination. Inu-Yasha wanted to know how close, though. He had to be prepared.
"Hey, runt! I need ya to do something for me!"
"What is it?"
"Get on my back and I'll show you."
Myuka climbed onto Inu-Yasha's back and held on as he jumped to one of the highest branches of a nearby tree.
"Do you remember that glow you saw in the forest a while ago?"
"Yeah."
"Can you find it again and tell me how close we are?"
"Sure! It's really bright, I don't know how you can't see it. We're about, maybe, a mile away."
"Okay. Thanks, kid."
Myuka giggled.
"What?!"
"You thanked me."
"So?"
Inu-Yasha jumped down from the tree.
"Let's stop here for the night."
"Sure thing!"
Myuka unrolled her sleeping mat and blanket and sat down expectantly. Inu-Yasha started to walk off in search of a tree. A whimpering sound behind him stopped him in his tracks. He turned around to find Myuka staring at him with a sad expression.
"What?!"
"Aren't you going to tell me about your adventures tonight?"
"No."
"Why not?" Myuka looked hurt.
"Because we'll probably reach the demon's hideout tomorrow and we need as much rest as we can get."
"Please?" Myuka gave him the cutest puppy eyes he had ever seen.
He sighed. "Fine."
Myuka gave a squeal of delight. Inu-Yasha sat down at the head of her sleeping mat and she sat down on his lap, pulling his sleeves around her like a blanket.
"Start talking."
"Alright! No need to get impatient! Anyway, I was getting impatient because Kagome hadn't come back yet. So I went down the well to get her. I was about to jump in her window and get her like I always do, but I saw she was almost ready, anyway. So I decided to play a little trick on her instead. I hid behind one of the buildings on the shrine. When Kagome came out, I snuck up behind her, grabbed her backpack, and lifted her right off the ground. 'Finally, you're back. And you've got another one of your huge bags with you.' I said. I set her back down, but I took her backpack and carried it for her.'
Inu-Yasha proceeded to tell Myuka about his final adventure with Kagome. How Naraku had taken the Tetsusaiga. How he had transformed and slaughtered half of a village. How Sessho-maru had gotten the Tetsusaiga and nearly killed him. And how Kagome had pinned him to the tree.
"'I love you, Inu-Yasha.' She said to me as she released her arrow. 'I love you, too, Kagome.' Was the last thing I said before her spell took effect."
Myuka felt something wet land on her head. She looked up and saw tears falling down Inu-Yasha's cheeks once again.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you cry."
"It's okay. It's not your fault."
"How adorable. Too bad I have to ruin the moment."
Inu-Yasha jumped up and looked around for the source of the voice.
"As you wish, Inu-Yasha."
Inu-Yasha watched as a demon more powerful that Naraku himself stepped out from the forest.
"I have been waiting for you, bearer of the Shikon Jewel."
