Congratulations, we sure showed my friend, and thank you all!
Inuyasha stalked over to Kagome, Kyo bouncing at his heels. "Come on wench," he told her, "Let's go." Kagome sighed at his name for her, she wished he'd call her by her name, but still, 'wench' was better then some of the things he'd called her. She waved goodbye to Sango and Shippo as she followed the two hanyous into the forest.
"We should reach the village by nightfall," Inuyasha told her, "We'll spend the night there, then move on to the demon seamstress's cave tomorrow morning. It might take her a while to make the clothes, but the whole trip should only take four days." Kagome nodded her head, shifting her pack slightly, "I packed about two weeks worth of ramen," she told him, "which means, with you two, it'll only last about four days." Inuyasha's ears perked at the mention of ramen, glancing over at the miko. She shifted the pack once more.
Inuyasha reached over and slid the bag from her back, sticking his arms through the straps. "I'll take it," he told her, "You carry Kyo." Kagome smiled, knowing that this was as much of a gentleman as Inuyasha would ever show. The little hanyou immediately leapt into Kagome's arms, nuzzling his face into her neck before drifting off into a deep sleep. Glancing over at the pair, Inuyasha started wishing that he was the one pressing his face into Kagome's soft hair. Shaking his head to clear those thoughts, he strode ahead, his ears twitching around for signs of any hostile youkai as they continued their journey in a comfortable silence.
I hope you enjoy this, and may your thoughts and creativity flow,
