Chapter 5
Healing Process
Meanwhile, in another clearing, InuYasha's ears twitched to the sound of distant screams. He shook himself awake. The voices were familiar. "Miroku! Kagome! The others are in trouble!" he barked. (No pun intended) "Miroku?"
The monk was nowhere to be seen.
Mirouku was sneaking his way to Azurine's camp when he heard Yuto shout out. He quickened his pace and rushed in, not even thinking to use his wind tunnel. A few moments later, InuYasha and Kagome also appeared. InuYasha acted quickly. He hit the demon over the head with the Tetsusaiga, momentarily stunning it so it couldn't run away.
(Chibi: Can snakes run? Bean: I really don't know… um… we'll pretend we can!)
"What in all the seven hells happened here?" he commanded.
"It…it attacked Azurine! She's not breathing!" Sarah panicked.
InuYasha picked the snake demon up by the throat. "What, exactly, did you want from her?"
"I jusssst wanted a well dessserved revenge, half-demon InuYasssssha," he hissed.
"How do you know me?"
"The witch Sssade told me of you…"
"Witch Sade? Azurine's mother?" Kagome asked. "She sent you?"
"Yessss…and I agreed to kill the lassst of the Deltan clan."
"Well, guess what. For killing her, you die as well." InuYasha easily crushed the demon's skull. Deltan clan? Not her. Surely not her. That would mean that she's one, too.
Everyone turned back to Azurine. Mirouku was kneeling beside her, looking slightly out of breath; Shippo sat on his head. Azurine was breathing again though slowly. She grimaced as a soft lavender glow enveloped her body.
Yuto blinked at her. There was a moment before he said, "Everyone's thinking it, I'm just asking it. What did you do to her?"
Shippo grinned. "He gave her breath back."
There was a collective glare directed at Mirouku as he sweat-dropped.
Azurine slowly blinked awake. Yuto, Shippo, and Mirouku looked over her.
"Whaa?" she cried. "Back off! Oh, no, no. Not you Shippo. You can stay. Where's Sarah? Did she go home yet?"
"She left just a few minutes ago. She said she'd be back around noon," Yuto replied. "She wanted to wait longer but she said that she wanted to make sure she got you something called 'Advil' as soon as possible."
"Advil is good…" Azurine closed her eyes.
"Nope. You're awake now and you're staying awake," Mirouku commanded.
"I'm…awake…doze"
Yes; a short chapter. Gomen.
