Okay I know I didn't update right away. I apologize for that. To make up for it you will notice that I'm updating two chapters. The other reason I'm doing this is because this chapter is way too short. I really want to thank you people for reviewing. Your great though unfortunately no body gave me a name for the new attack so the one in here now is tentative.
Over the next 2 weeks life is going to be hectic. So if I don't update, I'm sorry. Next week is the last week of classes for me and then the next week are finals. As I said I'm currently writing, Chapter 6 but all of the other chapters are in Word format so when I post the chapters I have to convert it using Frontpage. Well I think I've said enough on with the story
Quick note: Italics means thoughts even if its in "quotations."
Disclaimer: I'm starting to feel like Shinji from Eva but instead of "I mustn't run away, I must run away" its become "I don't own Inuyasha, I don't own Inuyasha."
Chapter 2: Resting Up
"Since it's a new attack I guess you get to name it. What are you going to call it?" Kagome asked Inuyasha.
"I think I'll name it Death Blow," Inuyasha said push his chest out with pride.
"That's a stupid name," Kagome said totally disagreeing with the hanyou.
"Well sorry I'm not that creative and I really don't care. As long as I do that attack I don't care if I'll call the attack Dirt," Inuyasha yelled back at her. "Besides, you think you can do better?"
Kagome fumbled with it for a bit. "Well, I think everyone should rest up. It was a long battle and we have a while until we get back to Kaede's village," Miroku said saving everyone from the future argument. Everyone agreed. While their rest was helpful, they wanted to get as far away from Naraku's old lair as possible. Together the group made preparations to leave with the exception of a certain wolf demon.
Kouga approached and grasped her hands in his. "I'm sorry but I must leave you, Kagome," Kouga said. He didn't even see that it was taking both Sango and Miroku to hold Inuyasha back. "I must go check on my pack. With Kagura still out there, we must still be on our guard."
"Good luck, Kouga. And thank you for your help," Kagome said. Kouga bowed and took off. Without the jewels shards in his legs there wasn't the usual tornado but he still left with a blur.
"I think I'm going to go too," Myouga said as he jumped off of Inuyasha's shoulder. Inuyasha quickly reached out and grabbed him before he could get far.
"You're not going just yet. I want to have a talk with you," Inuyasha commanded not giving the flee a choice in the matter. Inuyasha turned away from the group and headed off in the woods.
"I wonder what that was about." Sango said but everyone was as stumped as she was.
"Inuyasha's like an open book but its one that continually changes languages that you can't understand what's going on. Every now and then it changes to your language but not too often," Kagome said.
"Well since it seems like we aren't leaving right now as we planned how about we get something to eat?" Miroku asked.
"That's a good idea. It's a good ways back and we may not find any good food along the way," Sango reply.
The good thing is that Inuyasha will probably come back when he smells food. He knows that we won't save any for him," Kagome said with a grin.
"I'll go gather some firewood," Sango said.
"I'll come with you, Lady Sango," Miroku spoke up.
Sango turned and glared at him. It looked as if she would scream no to him but she spoke with only a slight bit of restraint in her voice, "Fine but only because I don't want to leave you here with Kagome."
"Oh come now, if I tried to do anything to Kagome you know Inuyasha would get really jealous and come after me," Miroku said while Kagome showed small signs of blushing.
"Then maybe I should leave you here. I think I'd look forward to Inuyasha beating the crap out of you. You just might learn a lesson," Sango said.
"You never know what could be out there waiting to attack you, especially with us still being close to Naraku's castle."
"You talk as if I can't protect myself," Sango said almost angrily. "Listen I don't care what you do, I'm not waiting any longer. I'm going to find wood." With that Sango walked off in search of food with Miroku not far behind.
"Why doesn't Sango just admit that she likes him?" Kagome thought to herself. "Probably for the same reason I don't tell Inuyasha that I like him, because she's afraid of getting rejected."
"So what are we going to eat Kagome?" Shippo asked.
"Well I figured I'd make some ramen for everyone. That way Inuyasha won't complain." Kagome smiled. At that moment Shippo's stomach growled, Kagome looked at him and smiled, "Well its going to be a bit before I make the food but if you want there's a chocolate bar in the top of my bag."
"Yay!" Shippo yelled as he quickly hopped over to Kagome's bag and got out the chocolate and started eating it.
Kagome just smiled at the young demon. She wasn't sure what was going to happen now that the jewel had been reformed. She didn't want to leave behind all the people that she had come to know and love. She quickly pushed aside any worrying thoughts promising to think about those another time.
