Ch 37 Escape of the Halfling and Flying Lessons from the Extreme
3rd person
The ball of fur shook itself rapidly, sending a shower of water everywhere. Sasha was soaked.
"WHAT IS ON MY HEAD!" the fur jumped off,
"Momma? Dontcha remember?" it was a small yokai who didn't look quite Neko or Inu and was wielding a small sickle (The Grim Reaper returns! Akira: excuse you! Sasha: -whacks me w/ mallet- He is not the grim reaper!). He looked a lot like Sasha… Sasha knelt down to get eye level w/ the yokai.
"Momma? I'm not your mom, what's your name, anyway?" he looked up quizzically,
"Are you sure you're not my mom? You look so much like her… well my name's Akira!" Sesshomaru was deathly pale…not that anyone noticed.
"Akira…it seems so familiar… well, nice to meet you, Akira. I'm Sasha and that's Sesshomaru, that's Naomi, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Jaken, Koga, Rin, Shippo, Kirara, and Inuyasha," she said, pointing to each it their turn. Akira looked over Inuyasha carefully.
"I don't like hanyou's," he snorted. Inuyasha almost went overboard.
"SIT!" Bump, bump, bump
"Owww…"
"Well, if you want you can stay with us a while, if that's fine with everyone else,"
"Sure!"
"Why not?"
"Sickles are cool!"
"We can chase Jaken with his stick!"
"MROW!" Inuyasha got up,
"I don't want—…"
"SIT!" Kagome had learned the cues.
"OW! But I didn't say anything!"
"You were thinking it,"
"Wasn't!" Sasha did her mind reading thing.
"Yes you were!"
"See?"
"Humph! Stupid physic wench…"
"SIT!" The Flirtations of Love… thought Naomi.
(On a hill not to far away…)
She braced herself for impact as again she crashed to the ground, wings flapping to no avail. She skidded through the ground and into a lake not far away. Lydia rose out of the water bangs drooping over her face. She parted her bangs so she could see. On the top of the hill Kagura watched from her feather.
"No, no, no, Lydia, flapping rapidly doesn't help as much as stretching your wings!" Lydia got up, covered in bruises from previous attempts. They had been at it for two hours, and still Lydia had been unable to use her wings. A seagull flew overhead, seemingly mocking the poor land creature with wings. She glared at the bird, and dragged herself back up the hill. Then she ran down as fast as she could in her weakened state, discouraged after falling so much. Suddenly she felt the rush of wind over her. She was flying! Then it was gone and she was falling down to the river. The river seemed to open up to receive her. SPLASH the gull seemed to laugh at my failure. Suddenly, a hawk with wingtips of gold soared in at a tremendous speed, chasing the evil bird away. The hawk looked at her, encouraging her to go on with its thoughts. It filled her with determination. She went back up the hill, preparing for one last try. She stretched her wings and ran down as fast as she could, then jumped. It seemed just like before, she as falling again, but something different happened, the hawk glided besides her, showing her what to do. She was gaining altitude! She was flying!
"Lydia! You're doing it! You're flying!" She felt the wind sweep over her, the wonderful, exhilaration of flight. She was going so swiftly through the skies, she felt as if she would never stop, even if she wanted to. Alongside her, the golden-tipped hawk raced, doing as she had for ages. Time was irrelevant and soon the stars peaked out, glimmering in welcome to the new resident of their atmosphere. She looked up and saw the moon. Have I really been flying that long? She thought, I had better head back. She then flew back to the hill. When she got there Kagura had already gone, but Natomi was there waiting
'I'd say that's the first time in history a yokai of any time (other than bird or bat) has flown!' then she noticed the hawk. Natomi stepped forward and bowed to the golden tipped hawk.
'Kenmei,'
'Natomi,' said the hawk, whose name was obviously Kenmei.
'It's been too long,'
'Much too long,'
"Wait a second, a psyche hawk?"
'Well, not really…' and then the figure twisted and molded until…
(2 days have passed… Sorry, but the cliff in the last paragraph will be answered a.s.a.p., but I have to finish this and another chappie today, so…)
"Are we there yet?" the little kitsune asked.
"I dunno, ask Miroku, he's the one who knows where this place is…"
"We should be there any minute," Suddenly Kadae's hut came in view. Everyone fell Anime style except Miroku. WAHCK –thump- Miroku hit the ground and came up with a very large bump on his head. He rubbed it gingerly with his innocent look.
"Ok, next time, I shall lead us!" Sango said.
"Well, at least we can get more Ramen…"
"OSUWARI!" –baboomp-
"OH! I just remembered! The dance! Inuyasha, there's-this-dance-at-school-and-their-making-us-wear-costumes-and-I-wanted-to-know-if-you-would-come-and…"
"Slow down!"
"There's a dance, and she wants you to go with her," Kagome blushed.
"Naomi!"
"It's true…" she blushed harder. Thankfully (or not) Inuyasha was o busy dusting himself off to notice.
"I'll go if I get more Ramen."
"She'll agree, but you better go now, it's tonight…"
"Naomi…" Kagome started to say, but Naomi pushed her in the direction of the well before she could say anything. After nearly pushing Kagome and Inuyasha both down the well, Naomi jumped in. Sango and Miroku watched after them.
"Someone's playing matchmaker…HENTAI!"
Yes, I have updated, the dance is coming, and is very important, so don't miss out!
PS Kenmei means 'wise' and is the Japanese version of 'Raven', my pen name's surname.
