9. Shards And Leashes
The girl that had spoken to the dog jumped from the large cat, as did the woman and the man. She walked to me, and said, "My name is Kagome, that is Sango, Miroku, Inuyasha, Kilala, and Shippo." She pointed to the woman, the man, the dog demon, the cat (now very small) and a child with a tail and ears.
Loeyla was on all fours, circling and sniffing the child. After she had gone around twice, I asked her, "Loeyla?" She stood and looked at me. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. He's just a child of the forest." she smiled at me.
"And that means?"
"It mean's he's a fox." Talabinya stood next to me. She looked steady, but Kurama stayed at her side just in case. "I am Talabinya, and this is my mate, Kurama." In my mind she told me, 'I don't want them to know we are demons. I don't trust this place.'
"I"m Loeyla, fox of the forest."
"My name's Yusuke, spirit detective."
"I'm Keiko."
"I'm botan, but all my names mean death." Smiled the Grim Reaper.
"I'm Koenma, prince of the spirit world."
"I'm Yukina."
"Hn, Hiei." He jumped up to his tree."
"Hiei, you jerk!" I yelled after him. "I'm Tenosa." I climbed the tree to yell at Hiei.
Kuwabara grabbed Sango's hand, and said, "I'm the brave Kazuma Kuwabara, you're pretty. Do you like kittens?"
Yukina pinched his ear and it froze. "I apologize." She grabbed Sango's hands, "Sometimes I feel I need a leash for Kuzuma."
"Me too." Laughed Sango.
"I have one." Said Kagome.
"What's that?" Talabinya asked.
"This dumb thing." Said Inuyasha, holding up the necklace from his neck.
"We came here for a reason." Said Kagome. "There are sixteen jewel shards at this site." She stood in front of Talabinya. "You have one..." She closed her eyes, "...around your neck."
"How!"
"I'm the reincarnation of it's former owner. I can sense them." Talabinya looked away. "Hiei has fifteen in his cloak pocket."
"What are you guys talking about?" I asked, completely clueless, jumping from the tree.
"We were talking about how we need leashes for our men." Sango said, sitting on the ground with Kilala in her lap.
"I hear that!" I laughed.
