It took a while, but I'm back!! Yay! Hope you all like where I'm going with this, the humor starts soon!

Oh, and if anyone can name the movie and character I parodied the chap title from, I'll give you a cookie.

Chap: Yoga. You seek Yoga.

'On the road again, going places I ain't never been–' Kagome hummed to herself. She and the rest of the gang were walking down a forest path, headed to a small village about fifteen miles away that had some rumors of two or three shards. 'Fun, fun for everyone,' Kagome thought with mild sarcasm. At least it was still warm, even for early fall. Many tree leaves were already in flaming colors, and the whole wood smelled and sounded of leaves crunching underfoot.

The miko was walking beside Sango, the better to help in case her muscles started to spasm again, while Miroku walked a few feet ahead of them with Shippou on his shoulder. Normally, the little kitsune loved to ride on Kagome, but she'd asked him to give her and the taijiya some time alone. He'd pouted, but had done as his surrogate mother had asked. Shippou was worried for Sango too. She'd scared him earlier with her cry, and he really hoped Kagome could make her feel better.

Inuyasha was, as usual, up ahead scouting for any demons that might come along. He would always dart back from time to time to keep a watch on them, and just as quickly head up the trail again. Kagome sighed. She knew he was perfectly capable of taking care of himself, (being half demon had perks, after all) but she couldn't help it. The girl absolutely hated it when he got hurt.

She also hated it when one of her friends were hurting, and paused to help Sango as the girl winced. "Are you in pain? Is it your back?"

Sango tried to smile, but it came off more as a grimace. "No, the medicene you gave me is still working. I feel fine, for the most part. The muscles are just twinging."

"Um," Kagome hesitated to say anything like this but–"you know, Miroku wasn't far wrong with what he said earlier."

Sango's eyes went huge. "Nani?! Are you insane? I'm not letting that bouzou anywhere near my back–"

"No, no! I meant about what he said right before that! When he said that if you're muscles were cramping that bad, you're going to need more than pain killers. I can help with that too."

"What do you mean?"

Kagome lowered her voice so the houshi couldn't hear. "Here's my idea. I can give you a back massage, and I'll bet I can fix a lot of your cramping with that. But the thing is, its best to catch muscle pain before it ever gets to that point. I can help you there.

"You see, my grandma taught me how to do yoga when I was little, right before she died. Its great for stretching your body and it'll make you much more flexible."

"You think it'll help with this?"

"Sure!"

"Alright, I'll do it," the taijiya nodded confidently to herself. The girls walked on a little longer before Sango asked, "So what's yoga?"

Kagome did an anime fall.
