Binds of Friendships

"I come from across the seas from a country called Europe. I have trained all my life to kill the pessimistic dragons that roam the lands. As of now my mission is over and I was wanting to take a couple years of and live in Japan." He bowed to them and looked up at them cheerfully.

"Yeah well as long as you don't take the jewel shard I don't have a problem with you living in Japan. Just stay out of my way or I will have to kill you." Inuyasha said bluntly.

"Sit Boy" Kagome yelled at Inuyasha send him plummeting into the ground. " I am sorry uhhmmm Mr. Veleshmit, Inuyasha is not the most polite person around.

"If you don't have a residence I don't see why you can't stay at the village with Lady Kaede.I am sure they will happily accept someone as strong as yourself to protect the village." Moroku said as he looked up into the beautiful sky. " It seems as we should start heading back to the village, how about it guys."

"We did get the Jewel shard and I guess we met a cute new friend, so I don't see any reason not to go back." Sango said knowing it would make Moroku jealous. Moroku stubbled back hearing it then tried to brush it off pretending he didn't.

"So Tetork I believe it was, would you come and join us?" He looked over at the others rubbing the back of his head and smiling.

"I suppose I could go with you like you say, it will give me shelter and food so why not. Oh yeah before I forget what are the means of travel." He looked curious at them and the recovering Inuyasha.

"Well, we are also looking for these things called jewel shards. Do you think you could help us with obtaining these?" Kagome said, for she was looking for another ally in the fight against Naraku.

"I guess I could, but before I help you will have to explain to me what is going on and what you wish to obtain power for." He smiled cheerfully. " Lets not worry about that until we get to this village."

They all nodded agreeing to tell the young dragon slayer about the problems of the one called Naraku once they were once again settled in the village. Kagome found that she could not ride her bike in the sand so she decided to fly on Ki-la-la with Sango and Miroku. Inuyasha ran for he wanted to get out of the desert and back into the forest as soon as possible. Very close behind Inuyasha was Tetork who was pretty fast for a person covered in heavy armor. He smiled loving this run for he has done much more physically demanding tasks when dragon hunting in Europe. They decided to camp out in the desert for the night for they were all tired from the travel over to the desert. As the others were talking about where to find the next jewel shard, Tetork was making some weird hand movements before what seemed to be a swirling vortex appeared and he tossed it that the sand.

The vortex grew and became a miniature tornado before it quickly went away. In the place he threw the vortex was a small bowl in the sand. He smiled and looked back at the others and said, "I have made us a shelter."

Kagome and Sango waved back to him and smiled. "Good job Tetork, well be right over."

Miroku and Inuyasha stared blankly at Tetork and whispered to each other, "That guy is a pervert. We can't let the girls sleep near him tonight." Miroku said.

"Like you are any better Miroku" Inuyasha said staring blankly at Miroku.

"I am honest those thoughts never crossed my mind." Miroku said trying to defend himself.

Tetork made a small fire at the very bottom of it and dug our a small place for him to lay down. He rubbed his stomach and a loud "Growl" noise came from it. He sat up and looked around before standing on his feet. "I guess it is hunting time." Tetork said as he jumped out of the small shelter.

Kagome walked over to him and smiled. " Dinner will be ready soon just don't be so impatient." She said before turning back and returning to their small fire.

"Dinner I don't see anything over there. Just some round thing." Tetork scratched his head dumbfounded.

"Ke-heh" Kagome chuckled before pulling some Instant Ramen cups out of her backpack. "There is water in there and it is boiling you see. Then when it gets hot we put it in these and it re-hydrates these noodles. Then dinner is served." She looked over at Inuyasha who was definitely getting annoyed at her flirtatious attitude to Tetork.

"Uhmm you mean no three course meal? He pointed to the little cup. How is that supposed to make me full?"

Kagome looked at him kind of in shock, "Fu…fu…fu… you are joking right?" She looked over at him somewhat frightened.

"No joke he said. Good thing I cleaned one of those dragons. That means a lot of meat and one happy Tetork." Tetork chanted a few Celtic words as a fiery glow came around his hand. He pointed it at the pit which turned a blaze. "I was wanting some pig, for dragon is not the best tasting creature, but it will do." Tetork pulled the salted meat out of his travel bag and put it in the fire. Inuyasha's mouth began to water smelling the meat being cooked and he looked over at Kagome fore a second. "Uhmmm Tetork, would you mind if I had some meat too?"

"By all means you can have some." Tetork smiled back looking at Inuyasha who has not had any meat in quite awhile.

Tetork finished cooking the meat and pulled it out placing it on a rock for anyone to take some. He smiled and grabbed a big piece and sat down and began to chew on the tough meat. "It may be tough but at least it is meat." He cheerfully said looking over at the others.

"I agree, I don't care so long as it is meat" Inuyasha said quickly gobbling a piece down.

"Sit boy!" Kagome said disgusted with Inuyasha's eating habits. She happily watched him get slammed into the ground." Learn some manners would you." She quickly turned away from him and ate her Ramen facing the opposite direction.

"Ga., Kagome you sat me for enjoying my dinner?" Inuyasha slowly sat back up and whispered to himself. "I wonder if this is what father ment when he said girls can become quite nasty at certain times of the month." ((ohhh damn I am getting shit for this one. ))

"Stupid Inuyasha always acting like a pig headed brute." She looked over at him and stuck out her tounge and pulled down her bottom eyelid a little.

Tetork smiled watching them and looked over at Sango and Miroku and whispered to them, "A quarrel of lovers?"

They both laughed and nodded looking at each other before Sango blushed and turned away. Miroku smiled and reached down and placed his hand on her butt only to get a slap in the face the second he touched it. "Don't you ever give up Miroku?" She looked down and giggled at him. Tetork smiled and laid down quickly falling asleep waiting to see what awaited him in the next day.
