Nanashi's Story Chapter 2
Disclaimer: I DO NOT! REPEAT: DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE INUYASHA CHARACTERS!... except my own of course.
Its early morning and everyone, except Nanashi, is sleeping peacefully around a small burnt out fire.
Nanashi is sitting a little ways off stirring something in a large pot. Shippo, smelling food, quickly sits up.
"Wow, something smells good."
Shippo walks over to Nanashi, watching him cook.
"You can cook? But I thought you forgot everything.
Nanashi looks at Shippo and smiles.
"Well, It seems I can slightly recall cooking, and it's the least I could do for ya'll letting me tag along.
Nanashi soon finishes and begins waking everybody.
"Hey, get up everybody."
Everyone gets up…..except Inuyasha who is still sleeping.
Nanashi kicks Inuyasha hard in the ribs.
"GET UP! FOOD!"
Inuyasha rolls sideways, grabbing his ribs.
"Oww, what the hell was that for?"
Nanashi points to the large pot.
"Food, eat, NOW!"
Inuyasha stands up and walks over to the pot.
"Can ya eat it?"
Nanashi hits Inuyasha hard on the back of the head.
"Yes, now EAT!"
Inuyasha grumbles and sits down, he eats (obviously liking it).
Everything is peaceful for a bit, but soon Nanashi senses something.
Kagome notices Nanashi's tenseness and looks to him.
"What's wrong Nanashi?"
Nanashi, without moving, replies
"I…. I smell something…. So familiar, but I don't know what…."
He quickly stands up and takes off in the direction of the smell.
Kagome shouts "Wait, NANASHI!... Shouldn't we follow him?"
Inuyasha looks at her "Why? It's probably nothing anyway."
Nanashi is dashing through the forest, following the familiar scent.
"What is that, its so familiar…."
He soon discovers what.
A large demon looms over a young girl, Teeth bared.
Nanshi shouts "GET AWAY FROM HER!"
The demon looks up for a moment and sniffs the air.
"hehe, just a half-demon. Leave now and I won't kill you."
Nanashi looks to the demon and smiles.
"heh, not a chance."
He dives at the demon, but the demon, with the slightest motion of the hand, swats Nanshi into a tree.
"Gahhh!"
The demon looks and laughs
"hahaha, well, as soon as I'm done with this girl, I'll finish you"
Nanashi watches the demon, his vision blurred, and raises his hand.
"n…n…no…I…wont let you."
And with that a faint glow emits from his hand. The demon, curious as to what Nanashi is doing, stares. The glow from Nanashi's hand slowly glows brighter and soon a bright, white light, burst from Nanashi's hand.
The demon takes a step back.
"Wh…..WHAT IS THIS?"
Nanashi slowly slumps to the side, passing out before seeing what happens.
Nanashi awakes suddenly
"WHERE IS SHE?"
Sango, startled, says
"I…If you mean the girl, she's over there"
Nanashi quickly stands up and walks over to her. He looks down out her, she is a young, cute girl, probably between 16 and 18. She has long black hair, small black cat ears, and a cat tail.
"good….she's okay."
Miroku walks over
"You're lucky Inuyasha found you, you were pretty hurt."
Nanashi looks at Miroku
"Inuyasha, huh? Guess I should go thank him"
Nanashi spots Inuyasha sitting by a tree and walks over.
"Hey, um, Inuyasha, thanks."
Inuyasha looks up at him and says
"Thanks for what, all I did was carry you here."
Nanashi, surprised at this, says
"b…but what about that demon?"
Inuyasha looks up at him, confused
"What the hell are you talking about? There wasn't any demon."
Nanashi looks at him
"b…but there was! He was the one attacking that girl."
Inuyasha just looks away
"whatever, maybe he just left or something."
Nanashi walks away wondering what it was that happened. He decides to go and check up on the girl.
Nanashi walks over to where the girl and Kagome are.
"So, she's doing alright, right?"
Kagome looks up and smiles
"She'll be fine, but could you watch her for a bit, I need to go and make dinner."
Kagome stands up and walks off before Nanashi can answer.
"um….Well, guess I hafta."
After a bit the girl begins to move.
Nanashi notices
"Hey, you're awake, feelin' any better."
The girl looks to him and says quietly
"A….Ai-chan?"
