Chapter Thirteen

Kirara landed not too far from the wolf demon tribe grounds that seemed to be buzzing madly with some sort of activity. The soul switching sibling demons watched from afar as Kagome and the rest walked into the grounds, Kirara changing back to her smaller and more adorable form.

"You don't think, do you?" Hojake insulted his sister.

"Well...I..." Hokaje was at lost for a come back. She had earlier told her brother that she didn't know where the wolf demon tribe lived when the answer was in front of them. All they had to do was follow Kirara and their destination would be before them in no time. Well actually, the journey had turned out to be an overnighter, meaning they had till dusk that day to return the souls to their rightful bodies.

There was only one problem.

Hokaje and Hojake could not show themselves. More than likely there will be an attack against them from the wolf demon tribe and they had no time to deal with them since they had to find Inu Yasha as quickly as possible. It was decided to stay out of sight and follow Kagome and the rest to Inu Yasha and once they get them alone, return their souls to their bodies and leave as quickly as possible before Inu Yasha realizes what has happened in order to avoid the possibility of another battle.

Hokaje sighed heavily. "Why does everything have to be so complicated?"

Hojake glared at her. "All of this is your fault. I don't even know why I'm helping you."

She gave a heart-warming, sisterly smile. "Because I am your loving and beloved sister whom you absolutely adore!"

Hojake gave into her adorable smile. "You are so cute!" He reached over and squished his sister in a hug.

"Ugh...You..re...crush...can't...breath...not..again..."

Kagome gazed around at the busy wolf demon tribe. Several of the wolf demons, mostly women, were running around, placing what seemed to be some sort of decorations around the place. An unexplainable wave of fear twisted in Kagome's chest.

"Please don't tell me..."

Shippo bounced on her shoulder. "Gee, Kagome, it looks like they're getting ready for some sort of ceremony..."

"More like a wedding..." Miroku mumbled.

Kagome felt the ears on top of her head twitch to Miroku's words. "I said not to tell me!" she yelled, almost throwing Shippo off her shoulder.

"But do you think we'll be able to get to Inu Yasha in time? It seems as if the wedding will be tonight," Sango questioned.

"Yes, we don't even know where Inu Yasha is," Miroku added.

"I don't care!" Kagome cried. "I WANT MY BODY BACK!"

"Wait!" Sango exclaimed. "Kagome, didn't Kouga bring you here before? Remember when we first met him and he wanted to use your jewel sensing powers to help him?"

Kagome stared at her friend that was inside a perverted monk's body. "What do you mean?"

"Most likely Kouga took Inu Yasha to the same place as he took you that time. If you can remember where that place was, maybe we'll find Inu Yasha!"

"That's true..." Miroku said. "Sango I'm impressed."

"Yeah! Great thinking Sango!" Shippo chimed in.

"Of course, it probably was my superior thinking that caused it," Miroku said.

Shippo looked at him. "What do you mean?"

Miroku closed his eyes to enhance his expertise in the situation. "What I mean is that the reason Sango thought of that was because she is in my body and my genius brain is what gave it to her."

Sango glared at him. "That makes no sense..."

"Yeah," Shippo added. "Even I think it's stupid and I'm just a kid."

"But..." said a defeated Miroku.

"You guys!" Kagome cut through. "Remember what we're here for!"

"Kagome is right," Miroku said.

"Changing the subject, are we?" Sango teased.

"No I'm not, I'm just trying to help."

"Oh sure..."

"But, I'm not sure if I remember where it was that Kouga took me.." Kagome thought, ignoring the arguing words of her other companions.

"Kagome you have to remember!" Shippo bounced up and down. "Your body depends on it!"

A wave of determination flashed over Kagome's face upon hearing Shippo's words. "You're right, Shippo. Let's go get my body!" She charged through the busy wolf demons who seemed to be so wrapped up in their work they didn't notice their new company.

"No it's not!" Miroku yelled, still caught up in the argument with Sango over his earlier remark on her suggestion.

"Yes it is! You just don't want to admit it!"

"Uh, you guys...Kagome's gone..." Shippo pointed to the area where Kagome had disappeared to.

"Hm?" Miroku and Sango stared absent-mindly at the direction Shippo pointed. They blinked in unison before sprinting into a craze.

"Kagome, wait!"

Shippo sighed as he followed them. "I'm always the one who has to set things right..." he mumbled.

Kirara, who had been standing listening to it all, finally sat down and gave her disappearing companions a quizzical look accompanied by a meow.
