Disclaimer: I don't own Yuyu Hakusho. Let me wallow in my misery for a while.
To MatrixFighter3: It's all right...I forgive you!
To FoxylilRaven: KILALA? ...I can't believe it...I forgot Kilala...O.O Well, she's perfectly fine just pretend she's been there the whole time...O.O I can't believe I forgot...and you were right about why I was happy about that one particular pairing...ehe...and I already have a Botan pairing, Gomen Nasai. The Rinku/Kanna pairing works though...I would have put them in sooner but I totally forgot about Rinku...my memory and me...
To Buffybot76: Really? You thought the action scene was good? ...Ok...that's a new one. I personally think I suck at action scenes...and fluff scenes...
The SwitchChapter Twenty-Five: The Wolf Youkai of the Northern Lands
Kagome opened her eyes. 'What happened?' Kagome thought as she sat up. She was in a campsite. 'I don't remember cooking dinner for everyone last night, or even stopping.' Kagome thought. 'Oh right...we met up with three members of the Wolf Youkai Pack that live here. Then there was that rockslide.'
"Kagome!" Shippo's shout was heard and she felt the kit hug her. "You're all right!" Kagome smiled and ruffled Shippo's hair.
"Of course I'm all right!" Kagome laughed. "Did you think I was going to die?" Shippo nodded. "Shippo, with Yukina, Botan, and Genkai for healers, the chance of me dying from a rockslide is slim."
"Oh..." Shippo mumbled. "I was just worried."
"It's all right Shippo." Kagome hugged the kit. "Now can I get up, or are you going to sit on my lap all day?" Shippo jumped up and Kagome laughed. Standing up, she looked around.
"Where's Yusuke?" Kagome asked.
"He's eating breakfast with everybody else. Genkai practically had to threaten him to come eat breakfast instead of staying with you." Kagome blushed a little bit.
"What about you?" Shippo shrugged.
"I finished eating all ready." Shippo tugged on Kagome's hand. "Now YOU need to eat!" Kagome laughed.
"Ok! Ok!" She walked into the clearing, and sat down next to Yusuke, who swallowed and stared at her.
"KAGOME! WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT OF BED?" Yusuke shouted. Kagome sweat-dropped. He was that worried?
"I'm fine, Yusuke, and I'm hungry." Kagome said, stealing some of Yusuke's food.
"Hey...that was mine..." Yusuke grumbled.
"Exactly!" Kagome took some more of his food. "It tastes so much better." Yusuke glared at her.
"How would you like it if I took your oden?" Kagome glared straight back at him.
"She would stab you with her chopsticks..." Souta laughed from his spot next to Rin. "I would know..." Yusuke's eyes bulged.
"Would you really do that?" Yusuke asked and Kagome nodded.
"Actually, yes I would." Kagome laughed nervously.
"You would stab me?"
"Yes."
"I feel so loved." Yusuke said sarcastically and Kagome smiled brightly.
"You should!" Everyone laughed at Yusuke's expression.
"She's nearly stabbed me many times..." Inuyasha thought out loud and Yusuke quirked an eyebrow.
"What do you mean by nearly?" Inuyasha grinned.
"I'm faster than she is, so I can get out the way before the chopsticks actually come in contact with my hand." Sango and Miroku rolled their eyes.
"Yeah, and after Kagome realized she couldn't get him she just sat him." Sango laughed. "Just be glad you don't have Kagome's prayer beads around your neck." Yusuke nodded.
'Mental note to self: never steal Kagome's oden. Another mental note to self: only steal oden if I am faster than her and I don't have prayer beads. Another mental note to self: If I am even considering trying to steal her oden, I will refer back to mental note number one.' Yusuke thought.
Later
The group had headed out again, and was making sure to stay away from any cliffs that might have precariously perched rocks, snow, or any other things that might fall down on them.
"Anyone else smell that?" Kouga suddenly asked.
"If you're talking about the scent of wolf youkai not to far from here then my answer is yes." Inuyasha stated and everyone stopped.
"What should we do?" Ginta asked. "Are we going to fight them?"
"No." Sesshoumaru said flatly. "We will try and avoid confrontation, and only fight if we have to." Everyone nodded.
"Maybe we should break off into groups, that way it would be harder to tell where we are because our scent will be everywhere, and they can't all attack us at once." Sango suggested. Sesshoumaru stared at her long in hard, seemingly deep in thought. "I know it means we could be risking a lot, but going as one big group is risking just as much."
"All right." Sesshoumaru nodded. "Everyone get into groups." Sesshoumaru instructed. After everyone did so (I'm not telling you the groups yet...I don't feel like it) they split up, trying to avoid confrontation with the wolf youkai pack of the northern lands.
With Group Number One
"What are the chances we're going to get by this unscathed?" Yusuke asked.
"Slim to none." Kagome sighed. "Especially after meeting at least three of those wolves yesterday." Yusuke grumbled in annoyance, slowly wrapping his arm around Kagome's waist.
"Their scent is all over the place." Kurama mumbled, his arm was already around Keiko's waist. "It will be hard to tell whether they are following us or not."
"Well THAT just makes everything great!" Yusuke said sarcastically. Kagome sweat-dropped, Yusuke had such a nice outlook on everything...not.
"Yusuke, you might want to keep your voice down." Kagome warned. "The wolves have very good hearing also."
"All right." Yusuke grumbled. "I wish I could kick their asses all the way to Hell." Kagome rolled her eyes. Well, at least Yusuke was normal...for Yusuke anyway.
"What makes you think you can kick our asses all of the way to Hell?" Everyone froze then turned to look at a member of the wolf youkai pack. "I see you have escaped our little trap, my congratulations. Since you are in our territory though, I feel obligated to kill you. Good bye." The wolf youkai smirked and charged for the group.
End of Chappie
