"Inuyasha, there is an abandoned hut over here where we can stay for the night," KoKo said as she checked the run down hut. "It's not much but it will get us through the night. Will you be ok with this, Shippo?" KoKo questioned. Shippo did not seem to notice that KoKo was talking to him; he was dozing off, about to fall asleep. KoKo walked over, scooped Shippo up, and carried him into the hut. "I brought some blankets back from when I was at home, studying for the test," Kagome said as she passed out a blanket to everyone. "Oh no…" Kagome dug into her backpack, "I'm a blanket short." - "That's ok, I'll share one with Shippo," KoKo kindly suggested. KoKo carried Shippo over to a corner, sat him down, and spread out the large blanket Kagome had given her. When KoKo finally got the blanket completely spread out, she tucked Shippo in and got under the blanket. "Inuyasha, the sun is going down," KoKo realized. KoKo had never seen Inuyasha a human before, so she was actually a little excited to see the human form of Inuyasha. - The sun had finally gone down, and KoKo stared at the human Inuyasha. "You do not look bad as a human, Inuyasha," KoKo said in a surprising tone. Inuyasha stared at his little sister and said in an annoyed tone, "Did you expect me to be ugly?"- "No, it's just that… I have never seen a half demon when it's a human." Inuyasha calmed himself down, knowing that KoKo will not tell anyone about his transformation. "Inuyasha," Inuyasha looked at KoKo while she spoke, "Has a demon ever discovered your human form… like Naraku?" Inuyasha got a little more annoyed this time and yelled, "No; otherwise, I wouldn't be hiding is this damn run down hut!" - "Well sorry for asking a question about your protection!" KoKo yelled back. Inuyasha now knew that he had met his match at fighting. 'Inuyasha going to have to get used to KoKo having the last saying,' Kagome laughed in her mind. KoKo sighed and calmly said, "Inuyasha, I do not always want to fight like this, not with you… my brother." Inuyasha was shocked that KoKo had just said this- he thought that she liked fighting. Inuyasha turned away and stared at the sky through a hole in the roof. Inuyasha did not notice, but KoKo was lying down and watching him. 'Inuyasha will not sleep while he is human… he will not even put down his guard.' Inuyasha turned quickly as he heard rustling from KoKo and Shippo's corner of the hut. "What the hell are you doing?" Inuyasha questioned, stopping KoKo from going outside. "Just for a little walk," KoKo innocently answered. "I should come along with you, to make sure that you don't get hurt." - "To make sure that I'm ok! What about you?" KoKo argued. KoKo kept on walking outside and Inuyasha followed. "I can't believe that Inuyasha is going out there like that!" Kagome angrily said to Sango and Miroku. Everyone had been awake the whole time, except for Shippo who was cuddled up in his corner. Kagome started getting up, but Miroku stopped her and said, "You should let them go outside and talk things out themselves." Kagome was still looking out the hut door as Miroku still held on to her arm, now looking at something else. "Pervert!" Kagome and Sango both slapped each side of Miroku's face, because he had both hands full. Kagome and Sango moved to a different corner, leaving Miroku all by himself. "I just hope that a dangerous demon doesn't come and discover Inuyasha," Kagome worriedly said in concern. - Kagome dug in her backpack as she impatiently waited for Inuyasha and KoKo to come back from their walk. "Look what I found!" Kagome excitedly announced. Shippo woke up and they all ran over to Kagome; she was holding a few weird looking sticks in her hands. "What are they?" Shippo questioned, wiping the sleepiness from his eyes. "They're firecrackers," Kagome answered. Everyone was staring at Kagome with a dumb look. "I brought them for New Year's, but I must have forgotten about them. What day is it?" Kagome pulled her pocket calendar out of her backpack and saw that the date was Thursday, March 10, 2005. Kagome started to laugh and told everyone what was so funny, "My calendar says the year 2005, but I don't think it's 2005 here." Kagome stopped laughing and tried to think what year it is. When she figured out, she told everyone, "But here, right now it's the year 1505." Kagome started to feel sad as she thought to herself, 'What will I do when we defeat Naraku? When we find all of the jewel shards? Then I will have no reason coming here.'
