This chapter is only about Inu Yasha group for whom who are interested. Have fun reading. This chapter was provided by one of my best friends. I only translated it in to English. I hope my translating skills aren't so bad. This chapter is about Inu Yasha during two weeks when Kagome stayed with Sesshoumaru and it is more detailed than in the last one with them.
Chapter 10: Inu and co.
"Phew… almost for two whole weeks we were searching for those blasted shards. I've had enough of it!" – Stated Miroku stopping in the middle of the road. –"Inu Yasha why you forced all of us on this trip? Or have you forgotten that only Kagome could help us in finding them. Without her we don't stand a single chance and now for two weeks we were just walking without any results. It would be much better if we all stayed in the village and you could have waited on your favorite tree for our beloved Kagome."
"Yeah! We could have helped the villagers, play with small kids …"- Shippo's voice was heard from behind monk's shoulder which was filled with sarcasm.
"What? Can't a monk have a word in his unfair life?" – Miroku looked hurt.
"Well it was your idea of shard hunting so stop complaining."– Sango told him with silent warning in her beautiful eyes.
"Mmm … Well … It was … But not for the whole group … I was going to invite only my Sango to accompany me … And … How could I know that … when this idiot heard my idea he … Ah! It started so nice …" - continued to mutter under his breath Miroku bending his head lower. But suddenly a huge shadow appeared before him. He stopped.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING IDIOT YOU LECHER!!!" – Inu Yasha was in a very bad mood right now.
"Me? … No… You must be hearing things …" - Miroku was muttering trying desperately to be as far as possible from the angry hanoy.
"Calm down Inu Yasha." – Tried to sooth the angry hanoy Sango. – "He had all the right to call you that because during our trip you tried five times to kill him." – She put her hands on her hips glaring at Inu Yasha.
"But I didn't …" - He tried to defend himself – "It was his own fault. Every time he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time."
"Wrong place? How could it be if when you use your sword the 'wrong place' is everywhere for about 50 miles around you" – Stated Shippo quickly jumping on Sango and hiding on her shoulder.
"Keh!" – Inu Yasha crossed his arms across his chest then jumped up and disappeared between the trees.
"Ok. That's enough." – Sango turned around. – "We are all tired and we all miss Kagome. I wish she would be here to calm him down. Only she is able to that."
The group slowly made its way towards the village. Unfortunately it was becoming dark and they would have to make a camp for the night before they continue on their way.
"It's gonna be very windy tomorrow." – Shippo tried to start the light conversation and break the heavy silence but failed. So he snuggled closer to Sango and fell asleep.
Inu Yasha was sitting on the thick branch of a tree which was growing on the top of the hill and was watching as the sun was slowly gliding behind the horizon. He was waiting for the others to catch up with him and make the night camp in the place he found. The blood- red sun which hasn't completely disappeared was mirrored in his eyes. If someone was looking at his face now they would notice that fire was dancing in his eyes from the last rays making them seem to glow on its own. The leaves on the nearby trees were rustling quietly. The birds were bathing in the last rays of the sun. Inu Yasha looked after their disappearing forms, then continued looking at the sun thinking about Kagome and what she was doing now (she was having all the fun shopping with poor Sesshoumaru following her and not thinking about certain inu-baka. HA HA HA!!!).
For the last weeks such bored state was happening with him more often. He didn't tell anyone about it and when his friends came up to him all they would see the normal annoyed expression on his face not knowing about his brooding. Today was not different from any other. When Inu Yasha heard his friends getting closer he put his annoyed mask in place and jumped down.
When finally the entire group gathered in the place they put up the fire and made themselves as comfortable as possible. It became darker and a lot of stars appeared on the sky. They made the dinner, quickly ate it and went to sleep around the campfire. All of them were asleep except Inu Yasha who was sitting on the low branch and was watching his comrade's sound asleep, also looking the moon, the stars and the fire. He felt calm knowing that tomorrow Kagome would return and everything would return back to normal. (Yeah! Sure! He is in a lot of surprises. *very nasty laughing from above from two certain troublemakers*)
On the next morning the group was woken up by shouts.
"GET UP!!! HURRY!!! IT'S MORNING ALREADY!!! HURRY UP YOU LAZE BUMS!!! TODAY WE ARE GOING TO MEET KAGOME!!! IIHHAAAA!!!!" – A very overjoyed Inu was trying to wake up everybody. He couldn't wait for them to arrive to the village.
"He is strange today …" – Miroku whispered to Sango.
"You look the same when you see another young and beautiful girl near you." - Sango replied with sarcasm dripping from her voice to the red faced from fury Miroku while she calmly was strapping her boomerang to her back. She turned her head and told Inu Yasha:
"Ok. I'm ready. We could go."
"HEY!!! WAIT FOR ME!!!" – Cried Miroku to the retreating backs of Sango and hanoy.
"WELL!!! HURRY UP!!!" – Shouted back Shippo who was sitting as usual on Sango's shoulder.
In the mean time Kouga was thinking about what to do. There was no one to fight because a certain mutt-face killed all the monster birds in his mountains (it was in episode in TV series, somewhere.) and all survivals just flew away… suddenly an idea popped in his mind. 'I haven't checked on my woman for some time now. I need to pay a visit to her.' He grinned at the brilliant idea and left leaving clouds of dust in the air. He happily ran through the narrow cliffs when his sharp eyes caught something white hanging near the edge of one of the stone hills. Jumping across the gap he found that it was a piece of Kagome's handkerchief. (She showed him some time ago a strange thing and told him it's purpose. She even gave him one as a present on one of her strange events.) He took the piece and examined it more closely. He found some silver strands on it.
"AAAAAAAA!!!! THAT DOG-SHIT, HALF-BREED, GOOD-FOR-NOTHING BASTARD!!! WHAT HAS HE DONE TO MY WOMAN!!!" – He shouted and echo gladly carried his shouts across the huge territory. He began to descent very quickly and as soon as his feet touched the ground he looked around. To his great relief he didn't find Kagome's body or any other signs she was here. All he found was youkai's body which was tore apart. Quickly he ran toward the village where he knew Kagome lived during shard hunting.
When Inu Yasha with the group got near the village hanoy couldn't wait, so he went strait to the well to meet her, saying before he disappeared:
"You go ahead and I'll meet Kagome and bring her to you. OK?" – Last words were muffled as they were said from afar from behind the trees.
Miroku, Sango and Shippo stared at each other dully and went to Kaede's hut to wait for his return and luckily get some rest.
When Kouga entered the village he sniffed the air. He didn't caught Kagome's sent but caught her friend's ones so he tracked them down. When he found them he asked about Kagome on which they told him she hasn't returned yet but they are waiting for her appear any time soon. He thanked them and stormed toward the well where he found Inu Yasha standing and looking at his feet. He didn't pay to it any attention and started yelling at him from the first sight he saw him.
"YOU, MUTT-FACE!!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY KAGOME?!!!" – He was shouting for 10 minutes when he finally noticed that Inu Yasha didn't pay any attention to him. Instead he continued looking at his feet. Kouga came to stand beside him and also looked at the ground. What he saw made him freeze in shock. On the ground there was a burnt spot on which clearly could be seen Kagome's prints, someone's big ones and one really huge print. (You know like big-foot.) They were sating like this for some time and were looking at the foot prints when Inu Yasha said quietly:
"I'll kill any one who did this…"
"It wasn't you?" – Kouga seemed disappointed (his wish is to kick Inu whenever he had the chance) – "I hoped it was you. .. but do you know anyone with silver hair?"
"WHAT?!!! SILVER HAIR?!!! WHERE?!!!"
"Calm down … I just happened to find Kagome's handkerchief near the killed youkai in the mountains and on this cloth there were silver strands. Immediately I thought they belonged to you and …."
"WHEN I FIND SESSHOUMARU HE IS TOAST!!!!!!" – Inu Yasha shouted with anger, his eyes getting a red tint.
"Eeee … who is that?" – Kouga asked curiously.
"That's my bastard half-brother. Wait till I get my hands on him!!!"
"'WE' get 'OUR' hands on him!!!" – Kouga corrected a furious hanoy near him.
And two rivals decided to join forces to achieve their goal. Together they went back to the village to tell the others what they found out and decide what to do next.
