Ch.11
The End
Gobline was dead, and Rain was only out of breath. He had definitely gotten better since fighting Naraku. When Ankha appeared, he hurried over to her, and said,
"You're bleeding!" She looked down and saw that the blow Gobline had dealt her had made it through and cut her skin. It was bleeding. She touched the blood, then looked at Rain angrily.
"Don't rub it in." Seeing he was all right himself, she went to check on the other demons. Loeyla was all right, thanks to her mate, just a couple of bruises, but Sessho's feet were burnt really bad. The flesh was actually peeling off. The cat demon handed Loeyla some material, and the wolf/fox wrapped up her mate's feet. Ankha slung the retired assassin over her shoulders, and they hopped their way to the exit. Loeyla offered to help, "He is my husband, after all." But Ankha refused, because in moving him from one narrow set of shoulders to another might make him fall and get hurt worse.
It didn't take them long to get back to camp. Loeyla rolled out the bedroll she and her mate shared, and helped Ankha lay him on it so he didn't hurt his feet more.
Then they recounted what had happened, and Inuyasha went off to pout that he had missed it.

A month had passed, and Kala knocked on the huge doors leading into the Blue Dojoe. The pair emerged from the DoJoe, and the Lady Crow nodded to the girl. She went back to tell Fala to bring Sango, and Kala brought the baby. Lady Crow took Tay in her arms, and the unfroze Sango, who immediately continued in telling them how she wouldn't allow her husband to do it. Lady Crow interrupted her.
"We're done. It's time to test it." She snapped her fingers, and they were gone from the DoJoe.

POOF! The group of Miroku, Sango, Tay, Lady Crow, Fala and Kala appeared in the middle of Inuyasha and Kagome's camp. Lady Crow turned to Miroku.
"As I taught you, Miroku." Cautiously, he unwrapped his hand and held it, palm out, toward Inuyasha.
"Wind Tunnel, Open!" Inuyasha clutched at the tree in an attempt to keep from being sucked up. Kagome panicked.
"Miroku, stop it! You're going to kill him!" Ankha's ears perked at this. She yelled above the noise,
"Yeah, keep going!"
"STOP!"
"You must believe in yourself." Instructed Crow.
"You can do it, Miroku!" Said Sango.
"Papa." Whispered Tay. But above them all, they could hear Inuyasha yelling,
"HEY, MONK! I NEED TO FEEL MY FEET ON THE GROUND, NOT THE BREEZE BETWEEN MY KNEES!" Miroku said to himself,
"Wind Tunnel, Close." The suction stopped, but Miroku's hand was still uncovered. Sango cheered, and Crow praised her student.
"I bet he's still a letch." Kagome said darkly from where she was helping the swirly eyed Inuyasha to his feet.
"Let's see." Said Crow, snapping her fingers. She turned into her other form, as a beautiful girl, and Miroku did nothing. Sango kissed him, she was so happy.
A few days passed, and Lady Crow, Fala and Kala left for the White DoJoe. Rain had been acting oddly recently, rather silent and reclusive. Loeyla understood why, being a Bounty Hunter herself. It was time for him to 'go'.
And one morning, when they woke up, he wasn't there.
Only a note was left where his bed roll had been.
He had gone to the Training House, to become a Level Seven Bounty Hunter. If he survived.
