Chapter 8:

Inuyasha and Ashley had fallen asleep together in the tree. Ashley was the first of the two to wake up. Once she did, she noticed that she was wrapped up in Inuyasha's arms. So she smiled and closed her eyes again. But was soon woken up again by her mother calling her and Inuyasha from the bedroom window.

"Ashley and Inuyasha! What are you two doing in that tree?" She asked, not sounding mad at all. She actually sounded in a good mood, even though she was finding her daughter asleep in a boy's arms while they slept in a tree together.

"We fell asleep here last night Mom. Sorry." Ashley apologized.

Inuyasha was fully awake in a few minutes. He looked down at Ashley, who was looking up at him from in his arms. "Good morning." She said.

"Yeah. Same to you." Inuyasha said as he ran a ran through his hair real quick.

"You don't look like you're having a good morning." Ashley laughed.

"Is there such a thing as a goog morning?" Inuyasha asked her.

"Of coarse not." Ashley said. "Because that means you have to wake up and leave your dreams behind you until night comes. Then you dream again, but usually someting different." Ashley replied.

Inuyahsa let out a slight chuckle. Ashley could always make him laugh. She always made him feel better too. He never had to fight with her, like he did with Kagome. Ashley was so much easier to get along with, whereas Kagome was complicated. And Inuyasha was almost always fighting with her about something stupid. Or he would always do something wrong and either make her mad or sad. Ashley wasn't like that. Whatever Inuyasha did, she didn't seem to fight with him about it, or break down crying or yell at him as loud as she could at him. Inuyasha liked it, but at the same time, he loved Kagome yelling at him, he liked all the nice moments he had with her, which were all too rare. He let out a heavy sigh.

"What's wrong?" Ashley asked Inuyasha.

"Nothing." Inuyasha said soflty.

"Well let's go get breakfast then." Ashley said as she stood up on the tree branch. But as soon as she did, it made a cracking noise, like it was going to break any second. And it did.

But Inuyasha was quick catch Ashley and land on the ground below with much grace, and putting Ashley down.

Ashley looked around. "That was no accident." She said. "There'sa Pokemon around here somewhere." Ashley said. Then she looked around. She saw it. It was a Bulbasaur! "Bulbasaur!" Ashley yelled angrily. She knew that it was Ash's Bulbasaur. "What did you do that for?" Ashley yelled at it.

"Bulba!" Bulbasaur said as it ran over to Ashley andwas about to attack her when Ash ran out.

"Bulbasaur!" Ash yelling, a bit on the angry side. He knew that Bulbasaur was just trying to protect his family, and Bulbasaur had never met Ashley before, but he still didn't have to attack them.

But Bulbasaur stopped and looked at Ash. "Bulba!" Bulbasaur exclaimed.

"Bulbasaur, this is my sister. She's not going ot hurt us. You can trust her." Ash said.

"Sor!" Bulbasour said with a nod and used his vine whip to grab a flower and give it to Ashley to say 'Sorry.'

"Thank you Bulbasaur." Ashley said as she took the flower. "And I forgive you for attacking. You were only doing your job." Ashley said as she walked over to Bulbasaur and patted it on the head. Then she looked at Ash. "So what's for breakfast?" She exclaimed.

"I'm making eggs and pancakes for everyone!" Mrs. Ketchum exclaimed as she walked out hold a frying pan and a spatula. "Does that sound good?" She asked everyone.

"Yes!" Everyone exclaimed.

"Definitely Mom." Ashley said.

"OK. Well, give me a few minutes and we'll be ready to eat." Mrs. Ketchum said as she walked back into the kitchen, carrying her spatula and frying pan with her.
