A Thousand Miles

The Plan and Hiraikotsu
"This is your house?" Sylvia asked. It was quite small but the thing that surprised her most, was the fact that her backyard was almost twice the size of small house. Emily smiled and nodded.
"The thing that I'm going to show you is in my house is in the backyard. Come on, I can't wait to see the expression on your face," and Emily practically dragged Sylvia into her backyard. When they arrived, Sylvia saw a large lump covered with leaves. It was so cleverly hidden that if it wasn't for Emily pointing it out, Sylvia would not have seen them. They walked towards it and Sylvia's heart beat with excitement.
"What is it?" she asked. Emily made a squeak of delight.
"Oh you wouldn't believe your eyes! Here it is-" Emily said as she quickly glanced around and removed the pile of leaves.
"Oh my gosh, the HIRAIKOTSU!" Sylvia yelled. Emily tried to keep Sylvia's voice down, in case some other people in the neighborhood will find out. Realizing something, Emily paused.
"Wait, hold on a second! How did you know it was the Hiraikotsu?" she asked. Sylvia smiled and took out several pieces of paper.
"Remember a while ago I ran to the CRR? Well, I was curious and decided to research it! And for the whole leftover class, I found out about almost everything about the anime Inuyasha! Pretty quick, ne?" Sylvia smiled and showed the are-you-crazy Emily the pictures that she printed.
"You even sneaked off into the School Printing Room just for that?" Emily asked horrified. "You could have been caught! You could have been deliberated if Ma'am Hushmaine saw you! Even if any other teacher saw you, your grade could have been deducted! You also could'v-"
"Okay, cut it off already!" Sylvia said and sighed. Emily was, after all, the smartest in the whole year and Sylvia came in second thanks to the know-it-all Ma'am Hushy-pissy. "I was curious and I don't know what came over me! Wait, we're going out of the topic. How did you get the Hiraikotsu?" she asked once more. Emily gave her a We'll-talk-about-it- later look. 'Gosh, I'm going to have another lecture again...'
"Well, I don't know how it got there. I found it in a dark locked room in the second floor. It looks exactly like the one in the anime so maybe someone used this house for filming and stuff," Emily began. "All this time I thought that boomerang was quite heavy but it's not after all. As if I have carried it all the time," she said as she handed the overlarge boomerang to Sylvia without any sign of effort. But as soon as Sylvia received it, her hands fell because of its tremendous weight.
"Wha? I thought you said this thing is not heavy at all!" Sylvia said. Emily just shrugged and placed it back in its hiding place.
"Anyway, this is not the only thing I found. I also found Miroku's staff. Actually, I found that first, around three years ago. But at that time, I didn't know it was Miroku's staff! So I sold it to someone..." Emily sighed. 'Well, it did save my life with the money,' she thought.
"You sold it to whom?" Sylvia asked. Emily started to blush.
'Gah! What's wrong with me? Why am I blushing for something that may sound normal. Ahem, *may*,' she thought furiously. "Well, you see, before I met you at school, I needed a house and some money for school. And I met this boy, and he had so much money. I was surprised to see him with so much fortune so I'm sure he stole it from the rich merchant who lives just across the street," Emily added with sarcasm. "Oh well, he seemed to pity me so he lent me some of the money. When I bought this house, I found a long staff leaning against my door. At that moment, the boy came and had a strange interest on the staff and took it as a replacement for the money. That's all..."
"So...you live here alone..." Sylvia said sadly. 'I've been her best friend for thee years and I don't know anything about her past!'
"Yes, do you want to come in? I have some things to tell you. You know, about me three years ago," Emily asked with a sad smile. Sylvia, obviously interested, followed Emily inside her humble home. 'Emily, now that I think of it, I do feel sorry for all the times I asked you a favor...'

"Sango... or Emily?" someone wondered as he searched in a closet. "Aha! There it is," he said as he pulled out a long staff. He tried swinging it a few times, accidentally smashing a brand knew pot. "Oops!" he said as he bit his lip. He sat down on his bed and tried to recall everything. He had known and loved her as Sango. Then, after the tragic event he found another, Emily. For three years, he had gotten a huge crush for the one called Emily. Still, it was not huge enough to match the times he had with Sango, the heart aching moments, the love and his proposal to her (A/N Volume 30 I think). He stood up. He had decided. He would make her become the one he originally loved. 'They are not different this time,' he thought as he imagined a miko and her reincarnation. 'They are one and I love her for Sango and being with me every time. She is Sango, not Emily. Emily was just a substitute for me to relieve the pain of losing her for three years. Or, was she? I must go and see her now or it might be too late! Sango...'
He walked out and started to head towards the house of his so-called love. 'After all, soon the Kazaana (A/N I don't really know how to spell it. All I know is that Kaze is wind and Ana is hole or void or something like that) will be back,' he thought as he tightened his grip on the staff while lowering his eyes and smiling sadly.

"Where do you think they currently are?" the little kitsune asked the old flea. They flew above the high buildings, trying to see where 'dog- turd' and 'wimpy-wolf' went. "Hmm... they seem pretty quick. Why don't we take our own way?"
"We could try! We can start from the village over there," said a small voice from the kitsune's shoulder. As soon as the voice disappeared, the neko youkai flew towards the village. It stayed as high as possible to avoid attention. After a few minutes, they arrived at their destination. As they flew towards the next village, some smell caught the neko youkai's nose. Even after it had not met her again for almost three years, it did not forget that scent. It recognized it right away.
Okay so this was kinda short too in my opinion. Oh and by the way, it's Ramond not Ronald. RAMOND, okay?
Kazaana = Air Void/ Wind Hole/ etc...
Kitsune = fox demon
Neko = cat
Youkai = demon
