Chapter Eight
Ayumi, Yuka, and Eri.
Mrs. Higurashi walked Inuyasha and Kagome out to the Well, but was met up by Ayumi, Yuka and Eri. Mrs. Higurashi grabbed a baseball hat she had hooked to her apron, for emergencies including Inuyasha, and covered Inuyasha's ears.
"Hi, Mrs. Higurashi! Is Kagome here?" Ayumi stepped forward.
"Um, no." Inuyasha covered Kagome's mouth before she could answer.
"Remember that lady…Sango, from my era?" He whispered in her ear. She nodded. "Okay, well your name right now is Sango; it's a game, okay." She nodded again. He knew Ayumi's next question, so he turned to catch Mrs. Higurashi's eye and winked, she knew now to let him answer the question about Kagome.
"Who are these people?" Ayumi's question was seeping with curiosity.
"Um, I'm Miroku, um, Kagome's boyfriend's brother and this is our little sister, Sango." Inuyasha hated the thought of even pretending to be Miroku, but he couldn't let them know that he was the Inuyasha that Kagome talked about. He'd have to keep quiet about that for now.
"Why were you here? Is something wrong with Kagome's boyfriend….um I think his name is Inu…Inu…Inu something."
"Um, he got in a fight with our other brother again and he won't tell us why and we were hoping she could get it out of him." Inuyasha was quite proud of his lie; he generally wasn't good at lying.
'Good lie! You can tell them my boyfriend's name if you like.'
'So, what name would I tell them.'
'Inuyasha, silly!'
'Really!'
'Yep!'
"What's Kagome's boyfriend's name?"
"Um… Inuyasha." 'Sango' started giggling madly. "Um…We have to go and help Mrs. Higurashi clean the well house, that's our last chore, right Mrs. H?" Inuyasha winked again.
"Um, yes. Girls, I'm sorry, Kagome went out with her Grandfather. She won't be back until next week." She turned to Inuyasha and raised an eyebrow. Lucky for them, the dense girls didn't notice anything. He knew he had to bring her back next week to see her stupid friends.
'You know your friends are stupid right, you know this?'
'Yeah, I know. They're extremely gullible as well. So, how does it feel to be Miroku?'
'Shut up. Remind me to bring you back next week….But only for a little while, though.'
'Okay.'
"Alright girls, why don't you go home?" Mrs. Higurashi wanted them to go so she could Kagome back to normal faster.
"Wait, Miroku, why don't you tell us about Inuyasha?"
"No. Mrs. Higurashi needs mine and Sango's help to finish the well house so we can leave."
"We can help."
"No, we're good." Inuyasha walked towards the well house, when Sota ran out of the house.
"Hey Inuyasha!" Inuyasha set 'Sango' down and ran after Sota.
"Dammit, Sota." The boy bolted for the house with Inuyasha on his heals. An idea came to 'Sango' as she sat watching Inuyasha freak. Just as Inuyasha set foot inside the house Kagome said Inuyasha's least favorite word.
"SIT BOY!" Inuyasha's face met the ground quickly.
"Why did Sota call Miroku Inuyasha?" The girls turned to Mrs. Higurashi for help. She was standing with her hand over her eyes in embarrassment.
"Inuyasha and Miroku are twins. They are very hard to tell apart if you don't know them." Little Kagome stood and walked to Inuyasha after she explained this. "Can we please go now, this is not fun."
"Girls, please leave, I'll have Kagome call you when she returns." Mrs. Higurashi pushed the girls' backs towards the stairs. They left. Inuyasha and Kagome bid Mrs. Higurashi goodbye and left after Inuyasha punched Sota like four or five times.
Once through the well, Inuyasha met up with Sango at the creek filling the canteen.
"Hello, Sango." She looked up when she heard Kagome giggle.
"Are we not playing the game anymore?" Inuyasha laughed at this. "Well, Miroku, let's go say hello to Miroku!" They laughed again and walked away, leaving Sango plainly confused.
