Chapter eighteen ~ Ready for test #2

Sango, Miroku, and Shippo ran through the halls of Naraku's castle. They did their best to hide in the shadows, but the most important thing was to get out as soon as possible.

Sango was quickly breathing heavily after caring both Kagome and her weapon. Miroku noticed this and he once again offered to carry Kagome. He got hit over the head with the Boomerang Bone (I know that this is not the real name, it's H-something, but I could never spell it, so I am just going to call it Boomerang Bone like the English mangas do.)

"Sango, all I want to do is help." Miroku pleaded.

"Right. Well, carry this then." She tossed back the Boomerang Bone. Miroku was at first shocked that she gave him her weapon, but he then realized that she was a youkai exterminator, she didn't need her weapon to protect herself, she had hidden weapons, and she was just as strong with or with out them.

Miroku was at first disappointed that she threw back the boomerang Bone and not Kagome. Then after a while of running through the halls he realized that the Boomerang Bone had more to it than him getting Kagome.

She trusted him enough to carry her weapon. It was her trusty weapon form her home village, that weapon meant a lot to Sango. Miroku got determinate. He was not going to let anything happen to it! Even if it was slipping out of his fingers . . . sliding further out of his grip . . .almost touching the ground . . . about to hit the ground . . .his sweating hands losing their grip completely . . . and he expected a loud 'THUD!' but it never came. He had managed to keep a hold of the Boomerang Bone! Proud of himself, he thought about how happy Sango would be that he managed to carry her weapon with out ruining it when may be she'd -'THUD'.

No, he didn't drop the Boomerang Bone. He wasn't watching where he was going and merely ran into the wall.

"Well, at least we got rid of the brat, now." Inu-Yasha crossed his arms.

"You miss her." Grim accused.

"Wha!? I do not!" Inu-Yasha insisted.

"You do, too!" Kagome told him.

"I did not." He crossed his arms in an and-that-is-that motion. He then turned to Grim. "When do I get to take that test?"

"Well, probably really soon. Getting the girl took longer than I thought. So, it should be about ready. Do you want to head on over there?"

"Feh. I don't see why not. I just want to get into my own body once again." Inu-Yasha told them.

"You, know, I am not missing my body as much as I thought that I would." Kagome noted. "I kinda like being able to fly."

"You are needed back on Earth, though." Grim reminded her.

"Right." Kagome sighed, she'd really miss that being able to fly power, but she already missed her friends and family. She wanted to get back to them, too. "Well, let's get going, then."

Grim opened the portal to the castle in the sky and they went on in it waiting for their destination.

"HA! I got it!" Death cried triumphantly. "It is finally working!"

Silence sat across the room reading a manga. When she heard Death's shout for joy, she didn't listen to what she said, she just raised her flag that said 'Go Death!' Truth was Silence knew nothing about computers except how to find information on the dead, and that didn't do much good for these tests. So she just sat back and 'Watched'

"Silence! It's done!" She looked over at Silence. "You alive? Hey, it's done." Grim walked up closer toward Silence.

"Go away! Finish your work! I am just getting to the good part!"

"I am done! And what book is that?"

"Well, go work on something else till I am finished with MY work."

"Reading manga? That's your work?"

"I have to have to finish this so that I won't be left on a cliff hanger and then I will be able to talk to the dead about something. You know how they get so lonely."

"What manga is that?"

"Fushigi Yugi."

"Well put it down and get your butt over here!" Death practically screamed in her ears. Silence jumped high into the air with a screech from the noise that was put into her sensitive ears.

"What was that for?" Silence asked.

"They're here now! We have to be ready for them, now come on!" Death pulled her older sister up and over to the machine. "Now act like you know what you are doing and try to help me make this perfect!"

"I thought you said it was done."

"It is, I just wanna make sure it works right."
