Don't own Inuyasha!
Inuyasha Episode
"Pulling Your Own Weight"

Narrator – In our last episode, the group found a suspicious looking cabin. When they went inside, they felt like something was wrong. They were right. Someone else was there. Sesshoumaru went and looked around the cabin to see what was up. He found a small fox that could talk. Sess knew that the fox could turn into a human. She did and she was almost invaluable to him now. When Kagome went to bed, Aya expressed unfelt feelings. Kagome when she found out was extremely upset. Kagome didn't want Aya to come along but Sess said she could come along for now. Will Aya be a good part of the group or will she get in the way?

(Scene 1 – Forest with gravel path) Tree branches hang over top the gravel path making it extremely shaded on the road. The road branches off into dirt paths along the way, very thin, and almost never used.

Aya [A or Ri] – Hey guys, I have to be honest with you. My name isn't Aya.

Sesshoumaru [S] – Well, what is it then?

Rikku – Rikku. (Go figure Don't own FFX) Aya was someone who I killed when I was an assassin. I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier.

Sesshoumaru – It's quite all right.

Kagome – Coldly Anything else your hiding away from us?

Verina [V] – Defending Rikku I don't think she is trying to be mean to you.

Kagome – Angrily I am trying to cut her down. After what happened at the cabin.

Rin – Inquisitively What did happen Sess?

Sesshoumaru – Nothing.

Kagome – Ya right, nothing happened. When I went to bed, I couldn't sleep so I listened to the conversation.

Rikku – Surprised You did what?!

Kagome – When I was listening, I couldn't get half of it so I went to the top of the stairs. After listening, I wanted to see. The fist thing I saw...

Jaken [J] – gasping Lord Sesshoumaru is this true?

Sesshoumaru walks underneath a tree

Sesshoumaru – Yes. It's true.

Kagome – Sounding Evil But that wasn't the worst thing. The thing I saw was points to Rikku her kissing Sesshoumaru!

Rikku – Guilty Yes. I did kiss him. I wanted to keep it down but after Kagome told us that she acted like a spy a saw this, I might as well admit it. What are you going to do about it Kagome? Mope around just like when Inuyasha got killed?

Kagome – How did you know about that?

Rikku – News travels very fast when you are an assassin.

Kagome – Flatly Or if your "boyfriend" tells you.

Sesshoumaru – Whoa there for a second. 2 things wrong with that saying. 1. I didn't tell her about me killing him...

Rikku – You killed Inuyasha? Stammers But... He... Who... How...If... sighs I guess I don't know as much as I thought I did about you Sess. Sesshoumaru – And the second thing is Aya—Rikku whatever her name is, She is not my girlfriend.

Rikku – Uh... Sess, I wanna talk to you about that sentence...

Verina – The prophecy is coming true.

Jaken – I thought you were with your village getting whipped or something.

Verina punches Jaken in the back of the head

Jaken – rubs head Oh well, A small price to pay for a wisecrack like that.

Kagome – What prophesy? What are you talking about Verina?

Verina – It was something I read... I didn't know it would apply to Sesshoumaru. The prophecy goes: A warrior shall rise against his own flesh with a new weapon with strength never seen before. The flesh will fall and the warrior shall take his prize. The warrior and his prize will have a new-found friendship between each other. A new reunion between the warrior and his sister. She will become friends with the warriors allies and they will travel. The group will come upon a cabin. The warrior feels that someone is there. A fox shall be seen amongst them. The fox will be an asset to the warrior but will be an expense to the prize. The fox will want the warrior to herself, and the prize will not take it. When the prophecy is complete the fox and the prize shall become friends. The group shall remain as deadly until a new enemy comes forth and defeats the warrior. Silence Rin – I'm scared. runs to Sess

Sesshoumaru – Comforting Its ok Rin. It just something that will happen but I hope it doesn't. The warrior being defeated by a new enemy.

Rikku – I think it is very true. I mean listen counts off her fingers A warrior, Sesshoumaru. His weapon, well I don't know that. The flesh, Inuyasha. A prize, Kagome. A sister, Verina. The fox, me. Winks The kiss, the asset to Sesshoumaru, and the expense is Kagome being jealous.

Kagome – Interrupting Hold on, I'm not jealous. I already have kissed Sesshoumaru before you so how can a kiss from you make me jealous?

Rikku – Defeated I... I don't know. I thought I could support this case but I can't. Feels a tug on the back of her cloak What do you want Sess?

Sesshoumaru - walks in front of Rikku I didn't touch you Rikku.

Shippo [Sh] – Thanks girl, I needed those shards.

Rikku – You little brat! Turns around

Shippo – Thanks again now I havta go. Foxfire appears then he vanishes Rikku – Damn it. Those shards are the only thing I have left to remember my father.

Sesshoumaru – Wait a second. Looks at a skull

The skull moves like it is running away

Rikku – I see. runs and grabs the skull The little brat

Shippo – Mumbling ................

Rikku – Fine, if you don't want to talk I'll just have to make you!

Throws skull against tree making Shippo knocked out

Miroku [M] – Shippo! Where are you?

Verina – Hmm... he's mine! Jumps into tree

Miroku – walks right between the group

Verina jumps down from the tree and holds a dagger to Miroku's throat

Miroku – Who are you?

Verina – Let's just say you asked me to bear your child.

Miroku – Oh... Your just getting me back for saying that isn't it.

Verina – I'm with somebody already, my brother.

Miroku – Ok, I'm getting the wrong picture. Your brother is your boyfriend?

Sesshoumaru – No, that's just wrong. Walks in front of Miroku I let my sister join with me. Kagome, well you know already. Rikku, she's tending to Shippo at the moment.

Miroku – struggling What did you do to Shippo?! Verina – Whispering loudly Unless you want to die, keep still and don't move.

Miroku - still struggling You bastard! First you kill Inuyasha now you have taken Shippo!

Rikku - walks back in Not taken, just taking something back from him. Shows shards

Miroku – Shards? He took them from you?

Rikku – Yea... but he won't be following you for a while.

Miroku – You killed him! Struggles, breaks free and charges Rikku Rikku jumps and lands in a tree

Rikku – laughs Ya missed!

Getting frustrated Miroku charges Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru side steps and pins him to a tree with his sword drawn out

Sesshoumaru – If you want to die stay here if you want to live and see Shippo again, leave and give your shards to me.

Miroku – Your one sick bastard.

Kagome – Calmly Kill him Sesshoumaru. He doesn't really need to see Shippo again.

Sesshoumaru – I don't really know. If I do kill him, I won't have anybody to actually fight later on. puts sword away Go.

At the chance Miroku runs as fast as he can away from them

Rikku – You forgot your staff! throws it at the direction Miroku ran and they hear a metal clang and a thud Oops, guess I am a good shot after all.

Sesshoumaru – Ok Jaken, where are we headed next?

Jaken – It seems that we have to go through a cemetery to get to the holder of a shard.

Rikku – getting scared Great. I hate skeletons.

Narrator – The group has shown each other that they can be trusted. They can rely on each other when they really need it. They are heading to the cemetery to find a holder of a Shikon no Tama jewel shard. Will they run into an old friend? Find out next episode of Inuyasha
