Last time: Charlie killed Enzeru and they saved the rest of their group from loss of memory and stupidity... Wait, they were always stupid. Well, they are all better, anyway.
Chapter 13: A Fair Trade
"There are only two shards left that we know of, and they are belonging to Kouga," Kagome said, holding up the Shikon Jewel for everyone to see. They sat in Kaede's hut around the fire and tried figuring out what to do next.
"I'm not going to go see that scrawny wolf!" InuYasha argued.
"Yes you are, InuYasha!" Kagome yelled.
"Quit fighting the system, Yasha. That's how it works. You're going," Kay said, taking a bite of her ramen. She chewed her food slowly and swallowed.
"The only thing I can think of is going to Kouga's den and trying to compromise..." Sango said.
"I think that is the best idea," Miroku agreed.
Shippo stood and smiled. "Let's go then!" Shippo exclaimed.
"You know, you're starting to sound like InuYasha," Kay said, her fork hanging from her mouth.
"What? No I'm not!" Shippo exclaimed, yelling at Kay.
Kay smirked. "You sound pretty Yasha-like to me," Kay said, taking the fork out of her mouth.
"What's that supposed to mean?" InuYasha yelled.
Michelle sighed. "Let's just go!"
- - -
"Well, we're here... Now what?" Charlie asked no one in particular.
"We're going to all engage in rough sex," Kay said sarcastically.
No one replied to that and just sweatdropped.
"Let's just go inside," Kay said, walking through the waterfall that was the entrance to the wolves' den.
Michelle followed, and then the rest of the crew. They saw Kouga look up and growl at the sight of InuYasha. He quickly glanced to Michelle and smiled. "Michelle! You've come back for me!"
Kay hit her hand against her forehead and sighed as Michelle muttered, "In your dreams..." under her breath.
Charlie cleared his throat. "Kouga, we--"
"Who are you?" Kouga asked, scratching the back of his head. "And where's that weird dog?" Kouga looked around, trying to find Charlie in his former... form... That's a weird sentence.
"This is that weird dog," Kay said, pointing to Charlie.
"Oh," Kouga said, scratching his head.
"Well, Kouga, we have a favor to ask you," Kagome said.
"What do you want?" Kouga asked kindly. He stood there, his hands holding onto his wolfy skirt. That thing is so weird. Why would a guy be wearing a skirt? I mean, seriously! He must be gay or something.
"We want the jewel shards," InuYasha said bluntly.
"No way!" Kouga said, crossing his arms and sticking his nose up into the air. "I'm not giving them up unless I get something really good in return."
"Well, we can't think of anything, so we'll just have to kill you!" InuYasha said, grinning.
"Bring it on, mutt-face!" Kouga argued.
"InuYasha! Sit!" Kagome yelled, sending the dog boy into his own, personal crater.
"I think he needs to learn some manners," Shippo said, looking at InuYasha from Miroku's shoulder. Miroku nodded and Shippo hid once he heard the all to familiar growl from the half demon.
"I can think of something," Michelle said. She looked down at the floor and sighed.
"What?" Sango asked.
Michelle cleared her throat and walked over to Kouga. "If I give you something, will you give me the jewel shards?" Michelle asked.
"It depends on what it is," Kouga said, looking at Michelle carefully.
"YOU'RE GIVING HIM YOUR VIRGINITY?" Kay yelled, startled. Everyone gasped and opened their mouths wide.
"NO, YOU SICK FREAK!" Michelle screamed at Kay, picking up rocks and throwing them at her. Kay barely dodged them.
"What will you give me if I give you the shards?" Kouga asked.
"I'll give you this," Michelle said before going up to him and kissing him. If possible, everyone's jaws went closer to the floor, watching Michelle as she kissed the wolf demon.
Michelle pulled back from the kiss and blushed a little bit, only looking at the floor.
"Of course you can have the shards!" Kouga said, crouching down to reach his legs and yank the shards out of them. He stood and held up the shards in front of Michelle's face and then set them in her hand.
"Thank you," Michelle said, walking over to the group, who were still standing there like morons with their mouths open.
"Hurry up, assholes," Michelle said, walking through the waterfall and leaving them all behind.
Once Michelle was out of hearing range Kay blinked and said, "She's a freak."
"I couldn't have said it better myself," Miroku said.
Next Chapter: Returning to Kaede's village, InuYasha wonders what Kagome is going to do now that they finished the jewel. What will Kagome do? What will InuYasha say?
Michelle: I hate you.
Kay: I'm used to it.
Michelle: I'm going to kill you.
Kay: You've said that so many times that it doesn't effect me now.
Michelle: I will torture you to no end.
Kay: And how will you do that?
Michelle: I will sing.
Kay: Your singing isn't actually that bad. It even sounds better when we sing together.
Michelle: I'll... strip!
Kay: ... RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY! EVERYONE RUN FOR IT! THE JACKASS IS GOING TO STRIP!
Michelle: Good. She's gone. That's excellent. Ah... Relaxation. Here's the name of the next chapter: I Wouldn't Be Surprised.
