Of Wolves and Tights
Chapter 12
What's the Riddle?
Authors notes:
Yeah two chapters up in one day go me. And it's still early so I may get more up before I go to bed,or I may not. Really depends on what happens after I write this. Oh and you remember how I said I was almost dragged out West? Well I may just be in September so yeah I think I'll start pumping these out a bit faster now.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inu Yasha or The Riddle.
After Shippo had woken up and gotten over his shock at being thrown around and danced with the Inu Yasha gang had stopped by a river to have a picnic lunch. Though this time it was just instant foods,not that Inu Yasha complained, and water.
Humming to herself Kagome placed yet another CD into her boombox and turned it on before the others could see or stop her. Listening as a bouncy dance beat began to Play Kagome bobbed her head along with the opening whistling along with the music.
The rest of the Inu Yasha gang watched in horror,and pain. Inu Yasha holding his ears at the horribly off pitch whistling of Kagome's. Then suddenly the intro was over and Inu Yasha was up on his feet and moving.
"I've got two strong arms, blessings of Babylon. Time to carry on and try for sins and false alarms. So to America the brave wise man say." Inu Yasha sang half bouncing half dancing around.
Everyone else in the group were nodding their heads along to the beat finding it infectious without the help of the boombox.
"Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground. Where an old man of Erin goes around and around." Just as Inu Yasha sang this Toutosai fell out of the ground landing hard creating a hole near the tree they were all sitting under.
"And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night. For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong."Inu Yasha pointed at Sango sitting in her kimono wrap as he sang that.
"And a right."Now Inu Yasha pointed at Kagome who looked ready to laugh or sit him.
"He'll never never fight over you."Inu Yasha sang as he helped Toutosai sit up. Miroku nodded to that.
Everyone was up and dancing around to the song now that a musical intermission had come on. Though it was more just hopping up and down than dancing really.
"I got plans for us. Nights in the scullery. And days instead of me I only know what to discuss. Oh for anything but light. Wise men fighting over you. It's not me you see. Pieces of valentine with just a song of mine to keep from burning...history." Inu Yasha smirked at that as he sang and Kagome looked ready to sit him so he just went back to singing.
"Seasons of gasoline and gold. Wise men fold." Inu Yasha sang cowering back a bit.
Kagome nodded and went back to dancing with the others. Inu Yasha sighed in relief and danced as well taking a breat and preparing to sing again.
"Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground. Where an old man of Erin goes around and around. And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night. For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right. He'll never never fight over you." Inu Yasha sang pointing first at Toutosai, then Sango, and finally Kagome.
"I got time to kill. Sly looks in corridors without a plan of yours. A blackbird sings on bluebird hill. Thanks to the calling of the wild wise mens child." Inu Yasha looked around and found a crow sitting on a tree a few feet away and attacked it.
"Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground. Where an old man of Erin goes around and around. And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night. For a strang kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right." Inu Yasha sang repeating the pointing order as the corus went.
"Near a tree by a river there's a hold in the ground. Where an old man of Erin goes around and around. And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night. For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right. No he'll never never fight over you." Inu Yasha finished singing and they all just bounced around while the music continued playing for a few seconds more.
Once the song was done Toutosai stood and climbed back on his cow flying off before the others could so much as say hi or bye. Looking at each other confused by his quick disapearance the Inu Yasha gang shrugged and went back to their lunch.
End Authors note:
I love this song, especially the Gigi D'Agostino remix version. I would add in another song to make this longer but that would take away from The Riddle so yeah just this one song this time.
You Might be an Inu Yasha fan if...
If you run around clawing the air and shouting Sankon Tessou you might just be an Inu Yasha fan(or Souta one of the two)
