Angel? Chapter three ~ Little Fox Dreams

Inu-Yasha sat by Shippo waiting for the little demon to fall asleep. The little demon seemed to be having a hard time falling asleep. Inu-Yasha really couldn't blame him after the shock that he saved a dead person. Or was it because he actually cared about him? Inu-Yasha wondered.

He finally heard the light breathing of sleep from Shippo and he looked over to Grim to see what to do next. "What do I do?"

"You just will yourself to go into his dream. It is really easy." Grim yawned. She really didn't want to help him anymore. She was tired and he was making her off schedule. She didn't even know if all the people dying were being taken care of because Silence told her to watch him and that she and Death would take over her work.

"All I do is think that I want to be in his dreams and I am in?" Inu- Yasha said skeptically.

"Yep. And remember, when you go in, you will be in his dream. You will have no control over anything in his dream. It's all up to him." She watched as Inu-Yasha sat Indian style and thought really hard. He sat there for a moment. Grim looked at him 'he's pretty cute when he thinks hard. . .' * We see her banging her head on a tree saying, 'Impure thoughts. Impure thoughts. Impure thoughts.' *

"It isn't working!" Inu-Yasha complained. * Grim looks up from banging her head on a tree *

"Well, do you want to go into his dreams?" She asked.

"Well, I don't know what he dreams about. What if I end up getting my self killed. Wait. Can ghosts die?"

"No. But they can still feel pain."

"I'll get you. . . you won't live to see. . . tomorrow. . ." The little demon stretched and started a few swipes into the air.

"Great. I feel safe now. He can do anything to me while I am in there, but I can't even do anything to protect myself." Inu-Yasha said sarcastically.

"Yep. But do you want to save your body or not? Your only way is to go in there and tell him not to burn your body."

"Great." He sat and thought really hard. Once again Grim couldn't help but think that he was pretty cute concentrating that hard. * She bangs head against the tree, 'Impure thoughts. Impure thoughts. Impure thoughts.' * She looks back over to the sleeping Shippo to find Inu-Yasha gone. 'He must have made it in.' She thought.

"What the-!" Inu-Yasha asked as he swam through a moment of blackness and then out into the light. He had found himself in a field of flowers. He noticed Shippo to his right jumping in and out of the flowers trying to catch a butterfly. Good thing that this was a dream; this would be very disgraceful if he was seen doing this.

"I'm going to gettcha! I will! Come back here!" He told the butterfly. Inu-Yasha face faulted. That was what he was talking about before?

"Ahem. Shippo." Shippo looked over to Inu-Yasha.

"Inu-Yasha?" He cocked his head in a cute fox little way and forgot about the butterfly, "but your dead."

"I know. That's why I am here."

"You're here to tell me good bye, aren't you?" Tears came to Shippo's eyes.

"No, not really. . ."

"Inu-Yasha?"

"Yeah? What?"

"Shippo's eyes got really big, "Are you an Angel?"

"What the-! An Angel? No idiot! I am a demon that is a ghost! Not an Angel!"

"Then why do you have wings?"

"I don't have wings!" Inu-Yasha cried and looked behind him and pulled on something feathery . . . like WINGS!?

"Yes you do!"

"Oh, My GOD!" Inu-Yasha almost squeaked, "I DO!"

"And then why do you have a halo?"

"I do not have a halo!" He reached up to pat his head to show that he had no halo, when he felt his hand hit a metal ring. He pulled it down in front of his face. It WAS a glowing HALO!

"Yes you do have a halo!" Shippo urged.

"OHMYGOD! IDO!" Inu-Yasha cried in amazement.

"And if you are not an Angel, why do you have white clothes on?"

"I do not have white clothes on!" Inu-Yasha looked down to see his clothes change from their regular red to a pure white. "HOLY SHI-!" What was going on? Inu-Yasha remembered what Grim had said, 'remember, when you go in, you will be in his dream. You will have no control over anything in his dream.' So it was Shippo's doing! Ohhh! Just wait until he got his body back! That reminded him why he came here in the first place.

"Shippo! Listen to me!" Inu-Yasha urged, "Save my body, don't burn me!"

"Okay! But why?" Shippo wondered.

"I have a chance to come back to life but I still need my body to do it."

"Okay."

"Really? That's it? You're not going to ask 'Why should I?' or 'What's in it for me?'

"Aww! Inu-Yasha! You're transforming into a little bunny rabbit! May be we can play chase!" Shippo said with such an adorable look that, if it were anyone else but Inu-Yasha, would make your heart melt and give into whatever he wanted.

"What? A bunny rabbit?" Inu-Yasha asked in shock.

Shippo nodded, "I really like your ears Inu-Yasha."

"Inu-Yasha felt his ears they were long and round, and for some reason, he felt like hopping. He watched as he shrunk to a size smaller than Shippo. He looked at himself. He was a white rabbit!

"Yeah! Let's play chase Inu-Yasha! You run and I'll chase you!" Shippo said happily. 'Oh Crap!' Inu-Yasha thought as Shippo went down an all fours and ran towards him. Inu-Yasha did the only thing he could think of doing. RUN!

'I want to be out of here!' Inu-Yasha thought panicky. The next thing he knew he 2as flying through blackness and to the real world.

"Hey! Inu-Yasha! Where'd you go?" Shippo searched everywhere in his field of flowers but there was no sign of Inu-Yasha. "Oh! I'll miss him!" Shippo sniffed. "Now what was he saying? To not burn his body? Or was it burn it? I don't remember!

'What could be taking Inu-Yasha so long?' Grim wondered. 'May be I should go in after him. . .' Just then Inu-Yasha was shot out of the mind of the little fox demon and he lay down in a strange position and cringed.

"Did you tell him?" Grim walked over and looked down ay him. Inu- Yasha started growling and jumped into a tree and hissed at him, keeping a tight grip on her sickle.

"That Shippo!" Inu-Yasha sat straight up and fisted his hands. "I will get you back for that! I am not an Angel! Or a bunny rabbit!

"Bunny rabbit?" Grim came down a little curious about what he was talking about.
