Chapter Four- Ai Alright, sorry that it took me so long to get this stupid thing up. Oh and, dude that sent me a review, you know who you are, the "You cut it off right at the knees! How evil!" yeah you, I couldn't put it up if I wanted to! We switched to Comcast, and everything got erased on my computer, EVERYTHING! Not kidding you, no games, no Zoo Tycoon, no Word, no NOTHING! Any ways, here's chappy four Chapter Four- Ai The girl sat up so quickly that she almost hit InuYasha in the face. She looked around, than stared at InuYasha. He hadn't realized that he had flinched when she sat up.
"Sorry, quick reflexes," She explained.
"InuYasha, go to sleep!" Shippo said a couple of beds over.
"I can't sleep, I'm going outside," and with that InuYasha got up and strode over to the cave entrance.
The girl stared at him for a little. Than decided that she couldn't sleep either and followed him over to the doorway.
InuYasha glanced up at her, than did a double take, because she was no longer a half demon. She was back to being a human.
'I must have been seeing things,' he thought.
She sat down next to him and gazed upward at the sky. Now that the storm was over the sky was really clear with a few clouds and you could see every twinkling star.
"It's pretty isn't it?" she asked.
"Eh? Oh, sure." InuYasha was lost in thought when she spoke, but now came back to his senses.
"Who are you?" He questioned.
"Right now, nobody, just a lonely little person trapped in this big, wide world," She replied.
"I meant, do you have a name?" InuYasha tried again.
"Oh! Yeah, I'm Ai!" She happily replied.
"…Hi," Her sudden perkiness caught him off guard.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"InuYasha," he replied.
"Cool!" She was smiling now and seemed a lot happier than she had just a few minutes ago.
"So are you're a dog demon, right?" She questioned.
"Yeah, how'd you know?" He shot back.
"Ears. Dead giveaway," Ai explained.
"Oh…" and he fell silent.
InuYasha looked up at the sky; it was pretty, now that all of the thunder clouds were gone.
"Wait, just a minute!" InuYasha jumped up.
"Huh? Why?" Ai looked confused.
"Could I get some explanations please?" He asked.
"Oh yeah, what do you want to know?" She looked up at him.
InuYasha sat down again, "Where did you come from?" he asked.
"A little village a long ways from here, me, my mother, my father and my brother lived there. My father hated me and moved away. Than my brother moved away also, he said something about finding freedom or something. Then, a few years later, our village was attacked and my mother was killed, right in front of my eyes. So I went and lived with my brother for a little." She explained.
"And how did you get over here?" InuYasha pressed on.
"Well, I killed someone, not too long ago, and then I met up with Koga, he let me stay there awhile, and I ran away," Ai finished.
"And, do you like Koga?" InuYasha asked.
"Oh, no, I hate him," Ai said.
"Oh… me too," And then he smiled. 'She won't be that bad to have around for a while. At least she hates Koga too!' He thought.
InuYasha shut his eyes and leaned against the outer cave wall. A few seconds later, he felt Ai join him. She put her head on his shoulder. InuYasha opened his eyes to see that she had already fallen asleep.
The next morning, sun was filtering into the cave. Ai was still asleep on InuYasha and they were both wet with dew. She shivered slightly and InuYasha put his hand on her back automatically.
'Why on Earth does this girl shiver so much!' he asked himself.
Ai stirred and woke up. She looked around, remembering where she was.
"Good morning!" She greeted as she smiled.
"Mornin'" InuYasha replied groggily.
Sango walked over to them.
"Hi," She said.
"Hi, I'm Ai!" Ai greeted.
"Sango, are you feeling better InuYasha?" Sango asked gently.
Just then they were joined by Miroku and Shippo.
"We just woke up jeez!" InuYasha spat.
"Sorry…" Miroku said.
"I'm going for a walk," InuYasha stated as he got up and strode off.
"I get the impression that InuYasha likes the solitude," Ai thought aloud.
"You got the right impression," Sango reassured.
"Yeah he hasn't been himself for awhile," Miroku added.
"I'm surprised he didn't just shove you away last night…" Shippo wondered.
"Oh… Who are you?" Ai asked.
"I'm Shippo!" The kitsune replied.
"I'm Miroku," Miroku stated.
"You want to watch out for him, he's a perv…" Sango whispered loudly.
"Hey!" Miroku exclaimed.
Ai giggled.
Well that's it for now, partially because I'm out of ideas again. XDDDDDD I would now like to take this time to thank my READER! Not READERS because apparently apart form my friends, because they HAVE to read it or they die, that one person that E-mailed a review to me really liked my story, I thank you now.
