Families CAN Be Replaceable

Heart of Friendship- Those little things at the end are fun to write! Sometimes I go over the top though. Kyo will not have her arm cut off. I just felt like making a somewhat confusing and stressful situation for the characters making holes in my house.

Kyoto- I've never inspired someone before. Cool! Tell me when you put it up! I want to read it.

iluvshiei- The ring is only supposed hide her demon characterisics. But the charm got a little scrambled... Once again. I'm so evil to my characters.

Dragon Man 180- Thanks for the compliment. And don't worry. Emily will have plenty of warnings before Kyo actually goes after her. When she does well, we will be missing a bully.

LiL:.CaT:.AnImE- Hello Ryo! Ha ha! Anyway I have no clue what the highly recomend thing does, but it has to be something good! The flame I got is history now. Oh well. I don't mind it anymore. And I know I could take it down, but I believe everytime I talk about it a first time reader rushes to my reviews to find it.

lil'killer- I don't mind if you use some of my ideas but don't copy my entire plot. Okay?

I was about to go through the well, when I caught a familiar scent. Turning, I saw Mikoto. "You're hurt." he commented. "Yeah." I replied, "Kaede said it should be better in a week or two." "I could make it heal faster." Mikoto told me. He took my arm and pushed my sleeve up. I gasped in pain when his fingers touched the cut. Kaede hadn't rebandaged it. Pulling away, I glared at him.
"I don't know what you're going to do, but I'd rather the wound heal naturaly." I said. He shrugged. "If that pleases you." Mikoto replied walking away, "Don't forget. If you want it gone sooner, I'll be here."

Kagome looked up from her homework as I walked back into the house. "What did Kaede say?" she asked, "Souta's already in bed. Mom's in the shower, if you were wondering. Grandpa's out with some other priests." "The cut's infected." I replied sighing, "My whole arm's going numb and I won't be able to use it for a week or two." "That's awful!" she exclaimed. "It will be gone in a week or two!" I repeated quickly, "There's no need to get all upset."
"You're just like Inuyasha." Kagome told me, "It is a big deal. Stop blowing me off." I sighed. "I guess you're right." I answered, "Do you have any disinfectant cream? It might help." "In the bathroom." she replied, returning to her work.
Lucky for me, mom was out of the shower by the time I got upstairs. "Do you have any news for me?" she asked eyeing the sling. "The arm's infected." I replied, starting to rummage through the cabnets, "Kaede said it will clear up in a week or two." I was getting tired of telling people this. "Maybe we should bring you to a doctor." Mom suggested. "Nah." I replied, pulling the cream out of the cabnet behind the mirror.
"How about I bring you if it hasn't cleared up in two weeks?" she asked. "I guess that's okay." I said, pulling off the cap and rubbing a bit onto the cut.

"What happened to your arm?!" Kinomo exclaimed as I walked into school the next day. "I fell down the shrine steps and gave myself an awful cut." I half lied, "Now it's infected." "Wouldn't you have other cuts and bruises if you fell down the stairs?" Josh asked. "I only fell down a handful of the steps." I replied, "I didn't slide enough to create anything but this cut."
"Poor you!" Kinomo told me, "I hope the infection goes away soon!" "I took a class on first aid." Tsukonee said walking over, "Maybe I could help." "No." I replied, "Mom already brought me to the doctor. He gave me some cream to put on it and said there was nothing else we could do." "That's too bad." Josh said, "That isn't your dominate hand, is it?" "No." I answered, "It would be more of a problem if it was."
"I believe I need some money for a morning snack." a voice told us. We turned to see Emily staring at us. "What better people to get it from than a handycapped girl, a absent-minded boy, and an immigrant." "You're an immigrant too." Josh pointed out. She scowled at him. "Keep your mouth shut, weirdo." Emily told him.
I stepped foreward. "What do you want?" she asked me. "Stay away from my friends and I won't hurt you." I warned, flexing my nails. I had forgotten they weren't claws at the moment. My ring was on, of course. Emily looked me over. "I'll spare you this tim." she told us, "But just because your little friend here is scaring me." Emily walked away.
"OH!" Kinomo said, "I get it! When you said you were strong, you meant you were strong with words!" "Keep her away from us tomorrow too. Okay?" Tsukonee asked, "Maybe you could insult her too." "She wouldn't want to do that!" Kinomo said, "Kyo'd get beat up!" I sighed and didn't insist that I was strong. If they wanted to believe my body was weak, but my words were strong, I'd let them do that.
