13. The Hairball of Doom
Buyo sat in the middle of the hallway floor inocently while everyone had to sted over him and avoid stepping on his precious tail. Every now and then Buyo would move someplace else, still in the way. The sink wasn't the most pleasing place for Buyo. Souta tried to get him out but couldn't, so cold water from the faucet made the cat shreik and dissapear around the corner. Koga noticed that Buyo used his fur clothing as a bed. That was okay, except the fact that Buyo would hack up some hairballs while lying there. I mean, who likes hairballs matted into their fur!? Koga justs hates that. So, he moved the fur someplace else where Buyo couldn't get to it, in a dresser. Buyo, every now and then, would even use Koga's leg as a scratching post. Every time Buyo would show himself to Koga, Koga would shout, "It's The Hairball of DOOM!" And then the wolf-demon would dissapear into hiding from this 'Hairball of Doom.'
"Buyo." Kagome stepped over the lazy cat. "You really need to move someplace else."
Buyo just slowly opened one eye half-way and meowed lazily.
Koga came up the stairs, his legs bandaged. "That cat."
Grandpa Higurashi picke up his torn newspaper. "Buyo, you darned cat."
Mrs. Higurashi cleaned up Buyo's food, which was out of its bowl and all over the kitchen floor. "Oh, Buyo. What are we going to do with you?"
Everyone sat in the living room the next morning extremly tired.
"That cat." They would mumble.
Souta sat up yawning. "Hay...where's Koga." He tried to managed those three words between yawns.
"Probaly off hiding from Buyo." Kagome said in a tired voice.
"Have you seen the poor dears legs?" Mrs. Higurashi said, yawning.
"To Buyo..." Started Grandpa Higurashi, "...Koga's legs are not legs. They are his personal scratching posts."
Koga sat in the dark closet quietly. His eyes were were wide with fear and every inch of him was trembling. Buyo scratched at the closet door. "ACK! Go away you cat! Leave me alone!" Koga's legs were bleeding because of Buyo's claws digging into them. Koga tried licking his legs to stop the bleeding, but that didn't help much. Buyo scratched again. "P-please go away." Koga shut his eyes. "Go away...go away..."
Yeah, get lost cat.
