Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or Xiaolin Showdown. The story will follow the show but at the same time, it will not. There will be changes in the story compared to the show. Also, Kagome will get more Shikigami in the future any suggestions on what they should be?
Chapter Six: Relaxing Day
"A day to relax? We hardly ever get those." Raimundo said.
"Would you like for me to assign you more chores instead?" Master Fung asked raising an eyebrow at him.
"No!" They all said together before leaving before he could.
"What are we going to do now guys?" Raimundo asked on the way to their rooms.
"I shall practice my tai chi," Omi told him.
"You're gonna spend our day off training?" Raimundo asked looking at him funny.
"We are to remain vigilant at all times," Omi told him and glared at Raimundo when he snorted.
"What about you guys?" Raimundo asked and saw Kimiko texting on her phone. He looked at Clay.
"Maybe practice my lasso in the garden." Clay shrugged as he grabbed his lasso.
"What about you Gome?" Raimundo asked her.
"I'm going to the garden too," Kagome said with her sutras in one hand and a bag of stuff in the other.
"What's in the bag?" Raimundo asked her.
"And what are those little slips of paper?" Clay asked her.
"They look like ... talismans but these are different." Omi said after looking at them.
"They are," Kagome said with a smile, while they walked to the garden.
"What are talismans?" Raimundo asked them.
"Talismans are created by priests and priestesses, who use them to ward off and destroy demons. The effectiveness of the sutra usually depends on the spiritual stature of the one who is wielding it." Kagome explained before she sat down on the ground while the other sat near her.
"Does that mean that you are a priestess? Why do your talismans look so different?" Omi asked her excitedly.
"I'm a Miko and these look different is because they summon shikigami," Kagome told him.
"Shikigami? What's that?" Clay asked her.
"Shikigami is a kind of spirit summoned to serve a practitioner of onmyodo, which is similar to a witch's familiar. Most shikigami cannot be seen by most people, those that can have spiritual powers. Although invisible, shikigami could take a variety of human or animal forms, possess or bewitch people, or even cause harm or bodily death." Kagome explained to them.
"So we won't be able to see your shikigami?" Omi asked her sadly.
"You will be able to see them," Kagome said patting his head while she summoned all of her Shikigami.
She smiled softly at them and petted Loki when he laid his head down on one of her legs. "Guys let me introduce you to Doi, Emica, Emiko, Saru, and Loki," Kagome said pointing at each one of them.
Raimundo and Clay scooted, who was the closest to Kagome, away from her when they saw Doi glare at them from his spot behind her. "I don't think he likes us," Raimundo said.
"Don't worry he won't hurt you." Kagome smiled and looked back at Doi. "You don't have to stay behind me; you can go relax." She said and smiled when he hugged her before flying off to look at all of the flowers in the garden.
"What is he doing?" Omi asked while watching Doi.
"Admiring the flowers," Kagome said.
"Pfft, what a sissy," Raimundo said before he hid behind Clay when Doi glared at him.
Kagome giggled while Clay and Omi laughed at him.
Omi looked at Emica and Emiko. "They are .. children? I can not see them being able to do any harm." He said looking between them.
Kagome sighed and shook her head. "Smooth Omi."
They looked at her confused until Emica's hands were surrounded by ice and Emiko's were surrounded by fire.
"I can see now that they are most dangerous," Omi said as he backed away from them before running away with both of them chasing them and firing their element at him.
Kagome watched them before opening her bag and getting the contents out.
"A book, coloring books, and is that alcohol?" Raimundo asked surprised that she had it.
"Oooh I want some," Raimundo said reaching for it and yelped when Saru smacked his hand. "Hey, what was that for?!" He yelled while glaring at the monkey.
"It's not for me or us, it's for him," Kagome said while pouring some for Saru who snuggled against her and took the saucer from her.
Clay and Raimundo watched Saru enviously as Kagome pampered him. 'Lucky monkey.' They both thought.
