Chapter 2: Kinshi's Help

We left Kinshi off where Fluffy was found in the basement. But something was wrong. Let's start this off.

Kinshi extended her arms and thrust them around Fluffy. She hugged him so tight that neither of them could breathe. Then she stopped. Something was wrong...

Kinshi gasped. "Fluffy... You're a... oh no..." Her hand passed right through Fluffy! "You're a ghost..." she muttered. Fluffy whined and put his tail between his legs. Kinshi smiled. "It's okay, Fluffy," she cooed, "you're still my dog." Fluffy looked up and barked. "You're welcome," replied Kinshi, as Fluffy licked her.

Kinshi got up off the floor and headed upstairs. Fluffy followed, wagging his tail ecstatically. When they reached the kitchen, Kinshi turned to face her spirit dog. "Well, Fluffy, looks like we'll need some help here," she said. Fluffy barked in agreement. Kinshi laughed. "Who do we know that can help us with Transmogrification?" Fluffy yawned. "Maybe Inuyasha or someone else could help us," Kinshi said. "Let's go."

Knock-knock. Kinshi and Fluffy walked across the street towards Inuyasha's house. Knock-knock-knock. Kinshi was starting to get impatient. "What's taking him so long?" she asked. "It shouldn't take much longer than-" She stopped. There was some noise inside. Kinshi decided to listen through the minute door crack. Kinshi was right; there was something going on inside. She used her acute hearing to listen. There was something going on inhis bedroom... (A/N: need I say more?). Kinshi was enraged. "OPEN THIS DOOR, INUYASHA! I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING IN THERE!" she screamed at the top of her lungs. "All right, I'm coming, damn it. Kagome, hang on..." she heard. The door opened a few moments later.

It was Inuyasha, but he was only wearing a bathrobe. His hair was very frizzy, and he was sweating like crazy. "Kagome, hi," he said. Kinshi blushed with embarrassment. "I hope I didn't come at a bad time..." she mumbled. Inuyasha laughed. "Don't worry about it. Now, what do you want?" "Well," Kinshi started, "I need to know if you know anything about Transmogrification." Inuyasha smiled. "Of course I do." Kinshi's face lighted up. "Really?" "Of course. It's where you revive a fallen soul," Inuyasha replied. Kinshi's smile was gone. "Don't tell me; that's all you know about it." Inuyasha smiled stupidly. "Well, duh." Kinshi was pissed. "Well, thank you for your time," she said as politely as possible. "Now, close the door as fast as you can before I kill you," she sneered. Inuyasha was surprised. He closed the door was fast as he could. Kinshi laughed. "Let's go to the next house," she told herself.

The door opened. It was Sango. Kinshi waved. "Hello, Sango," she said with a smile. "Oh, hey Kinshi, what's up?" Sango replied. "Do you know anything about Transmogrification?" Kinshi asked. Sango sighed. "Sorry, Kinshi," she said. "I don't know much at all about it." "Well, thanks anyway," said Kinshi. "Bye Kinshi."

"I'm sorry Fluffy," Kinshi said. "I don't know anyone else who would be much help." Fluffy whimpered. They were back at the house in the living room. The fireplace was lit, and it was around seven o' clock. All was quiet, then... Ring-ring! The phone pierced the silence. Kinshi and Fluffy jumped a mile. "What... was that?" she asked. She turned towards the ringing phone. "Oh," she said. Kinshi walked over to pick up the phone. "Hello?" she asked as she picked up the phone. "Kinshi?" a voice asked. "It's me, James." Kinshi was confused. "Who's James?" she asked this mysterious person. "It's Tetsu-roku's friend." Kinshi turned her frown upside down. "Tetsu-roku? Is he there?" "Of course," James said. "You wanna talk to him?" Kinshi smiled. "Yeah, put him on." "Okay, hang on." Kinshi was happy. She waited a very long time to talk to her best friend.

A voice sparked through the phone. "Hello, Kinshi," I said. Kinshi smiled. "Hey, what's going on?" she asked. "Well, I'm at the casino, playing Texas Hold-em Poker, and I'm losing. What's going on over there? Is Sesshy there?" I asked. Kinshi was quiet. "Oh," I said. Kinshi shook her head. "It's fine. But there is one thing I need to ask you." This sparked my curiosity. "Really? Well, ask away!" I heard Kinshi sigh on the phone. "Do you know about Transmogrification?" I laughed. "Well, yeah," I replied. "What do you want to know about it?" "Everything," she replied. I sighed. This could be tricky. "All right. How about 7:30 at your house?" Kinshi giggled. "Sure, why not?" she said. "Okay I'll be right-" There was a pause. "Tetsu-roku? Are you there?" she asked. "YES!" I screamed into the phone. There was a thud on the other side. Oops, I thought. I guessed I scared her. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!" she shrieked. Now it was my turn to jump back. "I'm sorry. It's just that I won 25 grand!" Kinshi screamed. "Great! Well, I'll see you at seven thirty." she finished. "All right, bye," I said as I hung up the phone.

A/N: Well, there you go. That's Chapter 2. Chapter 3 will come out soon. Here's a sneak peek, just because I'm nice.

Kinshi was listening. This was going to be a bit tougher than she thought. When I saw her confused look, I laughed. "Well, I think you did everything right," I told her. "What did you use?" Kinshi told me. I nodded after everything she said. I sighed. Kinshi looked at me. "What's wrong?" she asked. "The thing is... you got the wrong items."

Well, I can't wait 'til I start the next chapter!
