Chapter 5
"Kagome!" she heard a yell, just before she felt something nearly tackle her in a hug.
"Did you bring me something Kagome? You said you'd bring me back some chocolate." Shippou said.
Kagome couldn't help but let a small smile come to her face when she saw the small fox demon.
"I'm sorry, Shippou. There was no chocolate at the shrine, but I did bring you something new to try." She pulled out a small bag of round candies. "They're called Jawbreakers, they're basically like lollipops without the stick.
Shippou examined the candies closely, before deciding to give them a try, and popped one in his mouth.
"Wow, these are really good! Thanks Kagome!" and Shippou ran off to eat some more.
"It's nice to see you back, Kagome" a man in purple robes named Miroku greeted her. Shortly follow by a woman.
"Yes, we were wondering what had happened to you. You're not usually gone for that long." The woman said.
"I'm sorry Sango, I was...detained... by some issues in the modern era, but things are better now." She said giving her the usual bright and cheerful smile that she usually had.
"Feh, let's get going already. We've wasted enough time already." Inuyasha's voice interupted.
"For once, I think Inuyasha is right. We should get going." Miroku said.
And with that the group started their journey again.

"So, priestess, you're pretending everything's normal? Very interesting..." A cloaked person chuckled. "I will continue to keep an eye on you, for you are the person who is most likely to destroy me." His mission complete, the foe vanished into the woods.
