Sakura and Naoko smiled at each other. The other people looked dumfounded. "Seize him!" Naoko shouted to Inu Yasha and pointed to Vash.

Inu Yasha looked a bit disgruntled as he peered up into Vash's face. Vash looked surprised and looked from Naoko to Inu Yasha who was looking pissed off.

"Inu Yashaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!" Naoko whined. "You're a DEMON. He's only a plant, which is basically a super strong human being!! C'mon!! We need him to catch Knives!!"

"Um, Naoko-chan, why don't we just catch Knives? I mean, he is standing right beside Vashy-san." Sakura said.

Naoko opened her eyes in surprise. "Why, Sakura-chan!" she exclaimed. "That's a brilliant idea!!"

Everyone else sweatdropped.

"Oik!" Naoko said. (A/N: that was NOT a typo...) She pointed to Knives this time. "Inu Yasha!! Sic him!!"

Knives sneered at her. "You expect a midget like him to be able to attack me and survive?" He asked. He pulled out his gun.

"NO KNIVES!" Vash hollered and grabbed his twin as Sakura cried "OOH! PRETTY GUN!" and pounced on Knives' arm.

Inu Yasha was snarling at Knives. "Midget?" he growled and cracked his knuckles. "I'll show you who's the midget!" He too jumped on Knives.

Naoko, Meryl, Millie, and Anna watched in astonishment as the four grappled for each other. Surprisingly enough, Vash and Knives' supreme strength didn't seem to deter the rabid Sakura and the infuriated Inu Yasha.

Naoko looked down at her tracking device. "What should I do, Stupid?" Naoko asked it.

"I think you know what to do, you big genius you!" Stupid cried.

Naoko looked at it askance. "I think we'll fix your flattering device later." She pulled out her giant butterfly net and flung it over the fighting people. "^________________^ GOTCHA!" she cried.

"................ Naoko.......... you caught a fellow Bishie Captor," Sakura told her.

Naoko's eyes widened. "Why, so I did!" She smiled again.

Sakura sweatdropped.

Inu Yasha scowled at her. "You also caught your Bishie tracker!"

Naoko blinked. "And that's bad?"

Knives took Vash's shoe and popped the knife out, cutting a hole in the net.

Sakura watched him run out and hit her fist on the ground. "Naoko! Get this thing off of me! Knives is getting away!!"

Naoko looked down at the net. "By golly, he is."

Inu Yasha walked up to her and hit her head. "Baka!" He took her hand and started chasing after Knives.

"KAWAII!!!!" Sakura yelled after them.

"So..." Vash said.

Sakura looked at him. "Oh, you're still here. Would you mind helping us catch your brother so we can take him to the Bishie Preserve where we can protect him. You can come too, if you'd like to stay with your brother."

"SURE! But, on one condition. Do you have lots of water? And bubblegum?" he asked.

"Yes! Now lets go get your brother!" Sakura replied and ran out the door with Vash following her.

Naoko ran after Inu Yasha as fast as she could. She smiled with grim amusement as she remembered a similar circumstance a while ago. "Remembering a while ago..." Naoko said and glanced at her shoes. She tried to whack the front of one shoe against the back of her other shoe and succeeded in making the roller blades pop out, as well as almost tripping. "WHEEEEEEEEEE!!" She cried again, trying her best to balance on one foot while being pulled along by Inu Yasha. Knives led them into a church. Inu Yasha ran up the steps after him and attempted to pull Naoko after him, but only made her trip and fall down. Inu Yasha grumbled and helped her up, then walked into the church.

Knives was staring at a ghostly man in a black suit.

"Now, now," the man in black said. "What're you two.... erm... people.... doing chasing after a mass murderer like Knives Millions?"

"Chapel..." Knives glared at his former Gung - Ho - Gun.

Sakura and Vash burst into the church.

"W- Wolfwood!" Vash cried. "You're alive!!" He started bawling.

"Shut yer mouth, Tongari! (A/N: that means "Needle Noggin" Wolfwood's favorite nickname for Vash) I'm a ghost!"

"You're still back!" Vash whimpered and broke out into fresh tears.

Wolfwood sighed.

Sakura looked on in confusion. "I thought when people died they went to heaven. What happened in your case? Were you rejected?"

Wolfwood glared at her. "Haven't ya ever heard of 'ghosts'?"

Naoko thought for a minute. "Ghost...." she said to herself. She pulled Stupid out. "Can we catch ghosts?" she asked it.

"No. Not right now." Stupid replied.

Wolfwood looked a bit shocked. "Catch... ghosts?" he asked.

"If you catch him, then does that mean he will come back to life?!" Vash demanded.

Wolfwood closed his eyes. He looked pained. "No, Tongari..."

Vash sighed. "Oh well," he said.

Inu Yasha walked up to Wolfwood. "Are you some sort of demon?" he asked Wolfwood.

Wolfwood glared at him. "Why would *I* be a demon? I was a priest!"

"You killed people," Naoko reminded him.

"Maybe THAT'S why he isn't in heaven..." Sakura said thoughtfully.

Wolfwood smoldered. "I TOLD YOU I WAS A GHOST!! THAT DOESNT MEAN I AM CONDEMMED TO HELL!!"

Inu Yasha pounced on Wolfwood. Nothing happened. He simply flew through the ghost and fell on the floor.

"AWWWWWWWW!! POOR PUPPY!!" Naoko simpered and ran over to Inu Yasha. The dog demon grimaced.

"Well, we have to get going," Sakura said to Wolfwood. "And we're taking Vash and Knives with us.

"I am not going with you, human!" Knives snarled. "I will stay right here!"

"Well, well... WE CAN DEPRIVE YOU OF WATER AND FOOD!!" Sakura shouted.

Naoko stared at her partner in awe. "She's standing up to Knives.." she thought, "HOW COOL!"

Knives stared at Sakura and Sakura stared back. There were spine tingling chills running up and down the groups spines, even Wolfwood's.

Sakura inched back, grabbed hold of Vash's arm, and flung him at Knives.

"What did you do that for?" Vash wailed as he flew through the air and into Knives. Knives gave a loud grunt and fell to the ground with Vash sprawled on top of him. Both looked dazed.

Sakura beamed. "Two birds with one stone!" she declared.

Inu Yasha walked over to the unconscious plants and stared at them. Naoko joined him. She poked at Knives' eye. "I think he's unconscious," she said to Inu Yasha.

"Naoko! Set up a teleport! Before it's too late!" Sakura said.

Naoko sighed and pulled out Stupid. "Send us home," she said.
