Hmm… so, if you're trying your hide, and you get the hiccups, you're almost immediately spotted. I guess it's to not learn that the hard way…

Hiccups

The gang had just finished having lunch. It was a well-deserved break, seeing as they had been traveling all day. Everyone was resting when all of a sudden InuYasha caught a whiff of something.

"I smell Naraku, and he's really close." InuYasha said while looking in the direction the smell was coming from. "Do you sense the jewel Kagome?"

"Yes. And it's really close, too. Let's go." Kagome responded. Kirara changed into her big form, and Sango, Shippo and Miroku got onto her. Kagome quickly climbed onto InuYasha's back. They were off.

"His stench is getting stronger." InuYasha said while speeding up his pace.

"The jewel is really close. I think it's right over the-" Kagome was caught in mid-sentence as InuYasha jerked to a stop right in the back of Naraku's castle.

"There wasn't even a barrier. I don't even think Naraku's poisonous insects saw us." Miroku stated. Kirara landed right beside InuYasha and Kagome.

"We could just sneak in. a surprise attack." Sango said. She spotted a small door in the back of the mansion.

"It could be a trap though." Miroku said.

"Naraku isn't stupid enough to just let us get right up to his castle. Lets go in." InuYasha said. He went to the little door and crawled in.

"Oh, boy." Kagome said as she crawled in after him. Miroku started to bend down to craw in as well, but Sango stopped him.

"No way are you going in after Kagome, or me for that matter. I'm going next. Shippo, you come after, then Kirara, and then you can come in last, monk." Sango huffed. She scurried her way in.

"Why does she always think the worst of me? Sigh" Miroku said while waiting his turn.

Inside the passage

The little passage was just big enough to crawl through. It was pitch black inside it; you couldn't even see your hand in front of your face. InuYasha herd something behind him. Hic! Something not right. He suddenly stopped. Kagome crawled right into him, knocking him down. The same with Sango, like a domino effect, until it was Miroku's turn. He didn't even notice Shippo and Kirara were down, he just crawled right overtop of them. He did, however, feel that he was going over something, but didn't bother stopping.

What was that? He thought. Miroku just kept going, until- Trip! He tripped over Sango's foot and landed no were else, but, on top of poor Sango.

"Humph! …Get off me!" Sango whispered angrily at the monk. She had to whisper to keep the group's were-a-bouts a secret.

"Why did you stop all of a sudden, InuYasha?" Kagome silently asked the hanyou she just happened to be sitting on.

"I heard something behind us. Would you get off my back?" he whispered angrily. He had heard the sound all through Miroku's 'event' too.

"Sorry. It's not my fault I crashed into you. You're the one who stopped." Kagome whispered as she got up, only to hit her head on the low sealing. "Ow…"

Hic!

"There it is again! Did you here it?" InuYasha frantically asked Kagome.

"Yah! It sounds… familiar…" Kagome said pondering.

Hic!

"I know what that is! Somebody has the hiccups!" Kagome whispered gleefully.

"Who is it?" InuYasha asked just above a whisper.

Hic!

"Miroku…" Sango silently said in a warning tone. "One, it's you! And two, get off of me NOW!"

"……… Hic!" was all the monk had to say.

"Miroku, if you keep hiccupping, we'll get caught!" InuYasha said angrily.

"Try holding your breath or something." Kagome suggested.

Miroku tried. 1… 2… 3… 4… Hic!

"Maybe someone should try scaring him. That always works for me!" Shippo suggested. He jumped onto Miroku's back, "BOO!"

Hic!

"Nice try Sh- Hic! - ippo." Miroku whispered sadly.

"Well we can't go any were until your damn hiccups are gone! Keep trying!" InuYasha was fed-up.

Hic!

"Try to forget about them, Miroku. Think of something else." Kagome suggested once more.

"Hmm… ok." Miroku shut his eyes and started to think.

"No! Don't tell him to think of something else! It's Miroku we're talking about, remember? Stop monk!" Sango whispered frantically.

"Huh?" Hic! "Aww…"

"Great, we're stuck in a pitch black passage, and we can't go any were because of the stupid monk!" InuYasha said frustrated.

"It's Hic! Not my fault!" Miroku defended.

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…

"What was that?" Kagome asked.

Hic!

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…

"It sounds like… a bee." Sango said.

"AHHHH- Hic! –HHHHHHH!"

"Miroku? Miroku!" Sango yelled.

"Damn it all!" InuYasha yelled.

Hic!

Everyone?

"Miroku? Is that you?" Sango asked cautiously.

"What's me?"

"Why did you scream?" Kagome asked.

"Oh. Because one of Naraku's insects came in here. And I didn't scream. I yelled."

"Whatever. Hey, your hiccups are gone!" Sango pointed out.

"Hmm… they are to!" Miroku said happily.

"They know we're here. Let's go and hope they don't catch us." Kagome suggested. The gang went back and out of the passage. They went into the forest to hide; maybe they could sneak inside tomorrow.

Naraku's Liar

"So you've come back I see. Any news?" Naraku asked the poisonous insect. The bug looked at its master.

Bzzzzzzz… Hic!

Naraku?

Yo! So, I've been updating everyday. Don't expect this forever! I'm having fun. My arm is getting better (kinda). But yesterday my sister and me decided to play a bit of hit and miss (baseball). She hit a ball straight at me. It hit me in the collarbone. And let me tell you, that hurt! And then after I got over the pain, I decided that I would be up to bat. She pitched the ball to me nice and slow, I hit it and it was a foal ball. It went straight up into the air, and come down only to whack me right in the head! Needless to say, I didn't feel like playing after that.

Aku-Naraku: Or else what? Did you have any guesses?

Surfing Aimlessly: Wow. Ok, I just pulled a muscle in my arm. Nothing you can really see, but it still hurts! And as for your guesses… wow. I mean holy crap! You are a very creative person!

Contest: So, nobody has got it yet, eh? Great guesses Surfing Aimlessly! But I am truly sorry, they are not right. I'm just that good! So, since I'm a nice person (usually), I will give another clue:

Clue: This person's gender is like something you send to a friend, remember the stamps. This person is also somewhat hypothetically like a tootsie pop.

Ok! There you go! Remember to send in your guesses with a compliment!
