Superheroes
Kagome was sitting by the well, reading a comic book made by her brother again. Souta was pretty good with drawing, improving with time and practice. He wanted to draw his own stories, but for now was focusing on short stories, often resembling American cartoons.
It was no surprise to her that the other part of his inspiration were her adventures in the past and his favorite big dog brother. Who, by the way, was his most esteemed beta reader and often helped improve the plot.
Usually by adding explosions.
Kagome was supposed to hand Inuyasha the newest finished comic book to evaluate. But since she was waiting for the hanyou (there was no way she could carry her pack all the way to the village by herself) she decided to check the comic book out.
It was obviously designed for boy readers. There were great Mechas ad battles in space. The team of protagonists had huge mechanic versions of Kirara that could combine into an even bigger samurai that was practically unbeatable. The samurai had a matching sword in his inventory.
Go figure.
Kagome giggled as she read the story following the adventures of the main five - the Purple Samurai, the Green Samurai, the Blue Samurai, the Red Samurai and the Orange Samurai, their colors matching their Kirara-like Mechas; fighting alongside the Priestess Kaede and master smith Totosai, with some other allies against the great NARAKU (Nations Annihilating Rogue Abomination Killer Usurper) and his Empire of Viledoom.
Kagome smiled fondly and with a lot of amusement when she read about the five brave Samurai helping the Planet Kingdom of Higurashi with its Prince Souta and Queen Mama fight off the great general Kouga from Planet Doom (who was both exceptionally ugly and stupid, on top of being covered by stinking fur) who had the Retired King Jiji-chan as a hostage. She blushed and read twice the pages where Souta depicted how the general tried to seduce the Blue Samurai, but failed because she loved the Red one, who then promptly wiped the floor with the general's face.
At the end of the story the Planet Kingdom was free of NARAKU's influence, Kouga's army in disarray, the Samurai getting a huge fears in their name and then getting into their machines to fly off into the setting sun.
She closed the notebook with a small smile and blinked when she saw a rain of potato chips' crumbles falling into her lap. She craned her head upward and found Inuyasha crouching on the lip of the well.
"Oi, I didn't finish reading yet!" he complained around a mouthful of chips.
